By STEVE HEILPERN,
Sigma Phi Epsilon featured yes-
terday's intramural football action
at South Ferry Field, taking the
second-place fraternity champion-
ship by downing Lambda Chi Al-
pha, 7-0.
Ted Dodenhoff provided the Sig
Eps with their victory margin as
he swept around left end for ten
yards and a touchdown with eight
minutes remaining in the game.
Roger Maugh added the extra
point on a pass from Dodenhoff.

Grand Finale
First-place I-M touch foot-
ball playoffs will be held un-
der the lights tonight at Ann
Arbor High's Wines Field.
The professional fraternity
teams will play at 5:15, fol-
lowed by the independent final
at 6:30, the residence halls at
7:30, and the social fraternity
game at 8:30.
minutes left, Hal Kruger complet-
ed an aerial to Jim Dutcher in
the end zone, but the referee's red
flag nullified the play.
Alpha Phi Alpha triumphed over
Theta Chi 7-6, in an exciting over-
time period to cop the third-place
x championship.
The regular contest ended in a
scoreless tie, and the game's out-
come was decided on four alternat-
ing plays by each team. Neither
squad could advance far on its
first play, but both scored touch-
downs on the third go-a-round.
Ray Roble threw to Gene Kelly
for the Theta Chis, and Mike
Wahls scored for Alpha Phi Al-
pha on a pass from Eldon Martin.
After the last series of plays was
over, the ball rested in Theta Chi
territory, giving Alpha Phi Alpha
one point, good enough for the
victory.
Trigon Defeats Chi Phi
The fourth-place title went to
T'rigon, who defeated Chi Phi by
a 12-6 score. Dorenc McCullen
passed to Bob Prentic and Dick
Glass for the Trigon touchdowns,
while Lee Krumbholz tossed to
Pete Geis for the Chi Phi score.
In the replaying of the over-
time of a professional fraternity
contest, Delta Sigma Delta eked
out a 1-0 win over Phi Delta Phi,
to gain the first-place finals.
The overtime was replayed from
last week's contest because Phi
~ Delta Phi, who had lost by the
same 1-0 score, objected to the
referee's tactics in calling time.
Slippery Rock Draws Laugh
At Michigan,Moans at Home
LACK SEASONED STARS:
Gymnasts Weakened by Graduation
By PHIL DOUGLIS '
An uproar of hilarity rocked the
Michigan Stadium as usual last
Saturday, when the public address
announcer proudly announced that
Slippery Rock State Teachers Col-
lege was, at last report, leading by
seven points.
What's With Slippery Rock?
However, we noticed an attrac-
tive coed in a blue coat turn to the
person next to her, and ask,
"What's with this Slippery Rock
deal anyway? I've never heard of
it." The person next to her just
shrugged, and kept his eyes glued
to the field, but this same question
was probably on many other minds
as well.
In order to alleviate this press-
ing question from the minds of
Michigan students, herewith fol-
lows the latest information on the
school that causes so much anxiety
each week.
Located in Butler County, Pa.
The 115 acre campus of Slippery
Rock State Teachers College is lo-
cated in Butler County, Pa., about
40 miles north of Pittsburgh, and
30 miles west of Youngstown, Ohio.

'M' Practices for Key Game
With Injury-Riddled Spartans
Michigan's Wolverines went to
work in earnest yesterday after-
noon for their do-or-die struggle
with the Spartans of Michigan
State here Saturday afternoon.
Bennie Oosterbaan drove the
Maize and Blue squad through
hours of passing drills and Jack
Blott sent the big Michigan line
through intensive blocking exer-
cises.
As the cold winds cut across the
gigantic practice fields, the spirit
of the team seemed to rise, and as
UCLA Still Tops
AP Grid Listings
By The Associated Press
What keeps the UCLA Bruins in
championship form?
Coach Red Sanders was asked
that yesterday after his smooth,
powerful club gained the No. 1
national ranking for the second
straight week.
"There are two things that go
to making up a good football
team," the affable coach said,
"Enough good football players and
a fine staff of assistants. I happen
to be blessed with both."
Miami of Florida and Purdue
both dropped out of the top 10. The
Hurricanes were beaten by Auburn
and Purdue took a 25-14 beating
from Iowa. With that victory the
Hawkeyes moved into the select
group along with Navy's Middies,
who beat Duke, 40-7.
The nation's top ten teams are:
1. UCLA (8-0
2. Ohio State (7-0)
3. Oklahoma (7-0)
4. Arkansas (7-0)
5. Notre Dame (5-1)
6. Army (6-1)
7. Mississippi (7-1)
8. Southern California (7-1)
9. Iowa (5-2)
10. Navy (5-2)
of now the Wolverines appear to
be "up" for the crucial tilt which
will go a long way in deciding just
how far the 1954 Michigan squad
will go.
Absent from Saturday's game
will be Tony Branoff, who is now
recovering from a successful knee
operation, Gerry Williams, a crack
end who has been crippled all sea-
son by injuries, and Jim Bates,
first string center, still weak from
an attack of glandulr fever.
State in Bad Shape
Michigan State, however, is in
bad shape when it comes to in-
juries, for starting tackle Randy
Schrecengost and third string cen-
ter Don Berger both face knee op-
erations. Quarterback Johnny Mat-
sock and halfback Bert Zagers are
on the doubtful list with severe
bruises.
However, Spartan Head Coach
Duffy Daugherty is glad to have
All-American halfback and co-cap-
tain Leroy Bolden back in top
shape again, and with a strength-
ened knee he may give the Wolver-
ines lots of trouble.
Interested spectators at yester-
day's drill included Bruce Hilkene,
captain of the great 1947 Wolver-
ines, and Michigan Ticket Manager
Don Weir.
Speaking of tickets, all are long
since gone for this clash, with a to-
tal of 97,239 fans assured. It is the
seventh straight season that this
civil war battle has been sold out.
The Wolverines, who will be out
for their first win over Michigan
State since 1949, will undoubtedly
have a fight on their hands, for
the Spartans are in the throes of
one of the worst seasons in their
history-and will thus go all out in
an effort to salvage some of their
lost prestige.
Saturday's game will be broad-
cast directly by at least ten radio
stations-including nearly all De-
troit and Lansing stations and
even someas far away as Chicago.

NEW YORK (MP-Lou Boudreau
remained the leading candidate for
the job of managing the new Kan-
sas City Athletics yesterday as
owner Arnold Johnson announced
he expected to fill the job and also
name a general manager within a
week.
Johnson said at a news confer-
ence he expected to talk with Joe#
Cronin, Boston Red Sox general
manager who fired Boudreau after
the 1954 season. Boudreau had
another year to go on his contract
at $45,000 per year.
Johnson addedhe expected to
talk with several others. Asked
about the status of Eddie Joost,
the 1954 manager, he said he still
was under consideration.
"I have made some inquiries
about a general manager," he said.
"But I definitely have not offer-
ed anyobdy a job."
The 47-year-old Chicago indus-
trialist shiedaaway from any talk
about player changes on the club.
"I hope I know enough to hire the
right people who know about
things like that," he said. "Cer-
tainly changes will be made. Look
where the club finished last sea-
son. (last) We have earmarked a
million dollars for rebuilding the
club."
Leading candidates for general
manager of the new club are Bill.
Dewitt, assistant to General Man-
ager George Weiss of the New
York Yankees, and Parke Carroll,
general manager of the Yanks'
farm club at Kansas City in the
American Assn.
This citadel of learning and foot-
ball is appropriately named after
the town it occupies . . . Slippery
Rock, Pa.
But our information doesn't end
here. No sir! The name Slippery
Rock is derived from the Indian
word "Wesch-Ach-Ach-Apochka."
How this derivation came to be is
a mystery in itself.
The college was founded back in
1889, but didn't become a state-
supported teachers colleg'e until
1926. Under its president Dale
Houk, and its 67-man faculty, it
confers degrees in elementary,
secondary, and, of course, physi-
cal education.
821 Students Jam Campus
All of 821 students jam the cam-
pus, which is dominated by an ar-
chaic structure strangely reminis-
cent of our own Romance Language
Building. These students a r e
housed in two dorms called North
and South Halls.
Both sexes attend this famed in-
stitution, and like most other col-
leges, Saturday in autumn means
just one thing-football. This is
where Slippery Rock usually ex-
cells, at least according to reports
in Ann Arbor.
Stackhouse Coaches Squad
But alas, fate has overtaken the
fighting Slippery Rock "Rockets"
coached by Chester Stackhouse. In
its first five games, the Rockets
have managed to win only one,
their opener, a 7-0 win over Edin-
boro. Disaster - struck the little
school as Ashland dunked the Slip-
pery Rock lads, 21-6, and then
horror of horrors-Indiana State
rolled to a 32-7 victory.
After a 34-13 beating at the hands
of California State, Coach Stack-

house was beginning to squirm,
and then Geneva added to his woesf
with a 12-6 win.
What happened last Saturday?
Did Slippery Rock down arch ri-
val Clarion? Was the 7-0 lead
enough to gain a victory? We are
sorry that we cannot report the
score, because the mule train bear-
ing the news has not crossed the
Allegheny Mountains as yet.
And so ends this saga of Slippery
Rock.

With four of last season's top
performers lost through gradua-
tion, and parallel-bars champ
Harry Luchs out of school for a
semester, gymnastics coach Newt
Loken expects this season to be
one of rebuilding.
Graduation has taken four of
Loken's top point getters; Marv
Johnson, Lee Krumbholz, Dick
Bergman, and Wes Wenrich. John-
son was captain of last year's
squad, which won 7 out of 9 dual
meets, and placed third in the Big

Ten championships behind Illinois
and Minnesota. Johnson was a
valuable man in the parallel-bars
event.
Krumbholz was Michigan's best
in the all-around event, placing
third in the Conference with a to-
tal of 25 points. The team total
for the meet was 71.5 points.
Krumbholz will be hard to re-
place.
Bergman was a steady perform-
er in the flying rings event, plac-
ing sixth in the Conference meet.
His top performance of the sea-
son came against Indiana when
he ran up an amazing 280 points
out of a possible 300 in his event.
Luchs Lost for Semester
Another hard-felt loss is that af
Harry Luchs, 1952 Big Ten champ
in the parallel-bars. Luchs drop-
ped out of school due to financial
difficulties. Loken expressed hope
that the agile Latvian-born star
would return next semester.
To replace these valuable stal-
warts, Loken has four returning
lettermen and five sophomores.
Bill Winkler, specialist in tum-
bling and the trampoline, will cap-
tain the Wolverines' 1954-55 squad.
He captured the Big Ten trampo-
line title last year and will be
trying for the top again this sea-
son.
Along with Winkler in the tram-_
poline and tumbling events is sen-
ior Frank Adams, another of last
season's regulars. A junior, Jack
Burchfield, will shoulder the load
in the high-bar event, as well as
in the trampoline and tumbling.
San Antonio All-Around Gymnast
Tony San Antonio, erratically
brilliant in his sophomore year,
will try to fill the shoes of the
graduated Krumbholz in the all-
around event. With only one se-
mester of Conference competition
under his belt, San Antonio placed
sixth in the Big Ten in the side-
horse and eighth in the parallel-
bars.
Two sophomores, Wayne War-
ren and Nick Wiese, are also all-
around aspirants, while sopho-
mores Bob Armstrong and Ron
Schwartz will round out the side-
horse event. The fifth soph, Gene
McDaniel, is a specialist in the
parallel-bars.
The Wolverines will face, six
Big Ten teams in dual meets this
season, and will compete in a tri-
angular against Minnesota and
Wisconsin. In seven full seasons of
competition, Loken's team have
NEWT LOKEN
... a year of rebuilding
won 37 of 50 meets, but as yet
have failed to win a Conference
title.
Freshmen Look Good
Prospects for the future are
good, says Loken. The freshman
team this year includes two out-
standing gymnasts from Windsor,
Ont., Eddie Gagnier and Allen
Cornwall. Gagnier was voted the
outstanding Canadian athlete of
last year in the junior class (under
18 years of age), and is expected
to go far for the Maize and Blue.
Another outstanding freshman is
John Kreutzer of Detroit.
Loken plans to take some of his
men to the Florida Gymnastic
Clinic which will be held Decem-
ber 27-31 at Sarasota, Florida.
The trip should be of great value
to the squad, says Loken.
