Baer Leads Running Attack; Cline Tops in Total Yardage TAXI1 RADIO DISPATCHED VETERAN'S CAB N0 2-4477 By DAVE RORABACHER In the hardest fought struggle of the afternoon, Delta Theta Phi outscored Alpha Kappa Kappa,, 19-13, to win its professional fra- ternity football game yesterday. Black, Peck Star Don Black and Doug Peck shar- ed the passing chores for the vic- tors, Black throwing for a touch- down and an extra point, while Peck made two touchdown tosses. Ced Richner was on the receiving end of two of the six-pointers, one from each hurler. Peck's other point gaining throw was caught in sensational style by Dick Hostetler who literally snatched it from the arms of two pass defenders. The extra point was snared by Jim McCrory. Hunt Scores Twice Both of Alpha Kappa Kappa's scores came on passes from John McCann to Phil Hunt. The losers continued to threaten throughout the encounter but were unable to make scores again. Phi Delta Epsilon outplayed Al- pha Rho Chi to defeat the archi- tects, 20-6. All three of the medi- cine men's touchdowns came on throws from Henry Guralnick to Fred Horwitz. An undermanned Psi Omega team was completely routed by Phi Faculty Night The Sports Building will be open this Saturday night, Oc- tober 30th (7:30-10:00), for a sports recreation program for faculty members and their fam- ilies. The most popular activities include swimming, trampoline, volleyball, badminton, paddle- ball, handball and squash. Alpha Kappa to the tune of 32-0. Bruce VanVoorst starred for the Dutchmen as he figured in all of their scores except one. VanVoorst had .a field of able receivers in Jim Huizinga, Ron Boss, and Rog Postmus who each caught touchdown passes and Vern VanderKooy who snared an extra point. By DON LINDMAN Fullback Fred Baer increased his lead as Michigan's leading ground-gainer with a 94-yard ef- fort against Minnesota, but half- back Dan Cline continues to lead the Wolverines in total yardage as the 1954 grid season passed the half-way mark last Saturday. Baer Far Ahead With 230 yards gained to his credit for the season, Baer moved far in front of his backfield mates statistically. The LaGrange, Ill., senior is followed in yardage by Cline, with a 156-yard total. In average yardage per carry Baer is also a standout, boasting a 4.1 mark. Although having seen limited action due to injury, Tony Branoff ranks second with a 3.7 average, followed by Ed Hickey with a 3.2 mark. Cline is "Work Horse" Baer's position at the top of the rushing statistics becomes even more significant when the loss figures are studied, Second only to Cline in total rushing attempts, the Maize-and-Blue pacesetter has lost a total of only two yards, compared to Cline's mark of 43 yards lost. No other Wolverine back has even approached Baer's efficiency in getting across the line of scrimmage. With 99 yards gained through the air against the Gophers, Cline retained his top position in the total yards gained statistics. The steady tailback has netted 268 yards through his running and passing efforts. McDonald, Maddock Share Honors Duncan McDonald continues to lead the Wolverine passers in to- tal yardage, but sophomore Jim Maddock has the best pass com- pletion percentage, a very credit- able 53 per cent. McDonald added In pass receiving, punting, and scoring the story is all Ron Kra- mer. The big sophomore has snar- ed 11 passes, nearly four times as many as his nearest challenger, for a total of 156 yards, nearly twice as many as second-place Lou Baldacci. In addition, Kra- mer has picked up 20 points with two touchdowns and eight extra points. Baldacci, Baer, and Cline share the second spot with 12 points. Michigan's punting continues to be sensational, as four Wolverine booters are averaging 36 yards or better per kick. Kramer has a spectacular 42.1-yard a v e r a g e, Maddock follows him with a very creditable 36.4-yard mark, and Cline is right behind with an av- erage of 36.3. McDonald rounds out the quartet, his only punting effort of the season having trav- eled an even 36 yards. u I AL Owners Vote Down Transaction NEW YORK W - The groggy Philadelphia Athletics stayed in the hands of the Mack family yes- terday after the bid of an eight- man Philadelphia syndicate was thumbed down by the American League in a six-hour meeting. Vote Tied According to one club executive, the secret vote on the proposal to sell to the Philadelphia syndicate was 4-4. It was believed New York and Baltimore were in opposition and Detroit, Washington and Cleve- land favorable. That left Chicago, Boston and Philadelphia to be ac- counted for. Six votes are needed to approve new owners. Charles Comiskey, vice-president of the Chicago White Sox, said a "divergence of opinion in the Mack family on how the stock must be sold" was a reason for the owners' refusal. Macks Can't Decide "I will not come back to any more meetings until the Mack family (91-year-old Connie and his two sons, Earle and Roy) has set- tled their own affairs among themselves. It seems they can't make up their minds. There are others who feel the same." Earl Hilligan, director of public relations for the league, said the $3,375,000 offer by Arnold Johnson, Chicago industrialist, to buy the A's and move the club to Kansas City was not discussed at this meeting. Hilligan had announced at an Oct. 12 meeting in Chicago that Johnson had been approved as an owner and Kansas City as a site, pending sale of the stock by the Mack family. t, 24 Hours Service We Go Anywhere YOUR BEST BET - CALL A VET Hockey- W L T: Montreal ..6 3 1 DETROIT 5 3 0 New York .5 3 0 Boston ....1 3 3 Toronto ...1 3 3 Chicago ..1 4 1 Pts 13 10 10 5 5 3 Gf 31 24 25 17 14 12 Ga 18 20 25 24 17 19 FRED BAER ... offensive leader 21 yards with one completion against the Gophers to boost his mark to 226 yards in the five games to date.

Grid Team Stresses Pass Defense in Indiana Drills I ECO With your purchase o any one of there new Columbia By LEW HAMBURGER An underrated Indiana team is the newest obstacle in the road from Ann Arbor to Pasadena. While Michigan enthusiasts ea- gerly await the game that may determine the Conference cham- pionship, their football team has been hard at work preparing for a less publicized foe, Indiana. Regaining strength as the injury list shortens, the team will be mi- nus the services of only one man, end Gerry Williams.

Right halfback Ed Hick- ey is a question mark, and his status rests with x-rays taken yes- terday before practice. Fullback Dave Hill is still suffering from an aggravated ankle injury, but Oos- terbaan said he may see some ac- tion against Indiana.

The Hoosiers boast a fine passing attack that has seen Helsinki favor Olympic decathlon star Milt Campbell, his right halfback and Fred Bomba, his left end, as receivers. Indiana may provide a tougher game than many Michigan rooters like to foresee. The Hoosiers led Michigan State for three quarters before bowing, 21-14. The game ended with the ball in Indiana's possession on the Spartan 11-yard line. Indiana Bounces Back Against Iowa the Hoosiers spot- ted the Hawkeyes three touch- downs before roaring back in the second half with two of their own. The final score was 27-14, but In- diana lost two touchdowns. One was called back on a penalty and the other was lost when Campbell fumbled in the Iowa enrl zone. Michigan's up-tand-down team has been unpredictable all year. They have shown spurts of great play against Iowa and Minnesota, but have also looked very poor against Army and not too out- standing against Washington. The Indiana game will be the first test of three games in which Michigan should be the favorite. Thus far they have played their great games against the best com- petition. Against teams of lesser calibre, Michigan has not shown too well. The question at present is whether the team can play the same inspired brand of football against less-heralded squads. Michigan Must Stay 'Up' This will also be the first time. that it has been necessary for the Wolverines to be 'up' for two games in a row. A letdown at this point would be fatal. The great performances against Iowa and Minnesota were separated by a fair performance at Evanston. The outcome of this game, there- fore, seems to depend on Michi- gan's ability to play inspired foot- ball rather than on Indiana's pow- er, already a rather well-known quantity. Gopher Defense Confused Michigan's deception is another factor in its favor. Last Saturday signal-callers Lou Baldacci, a sea- soned performer, and Jim Mad- dock, surprisingly cool at the helm in his sophomore year, consistent- ly confused Minnesota defenders. Also a great factor in last week's win wasmOosterbaan's ability to get the most from all of his play- ers. Almost every substitution re- sulted in needed yardage. * Clean "*New "NModern 8170 Jackson Rd. Ph.
