WEDNESDAY,. NOVEMBER 10, 1954 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE TER Sigma Phi Epsilon Annexes Second-Place Gi rid Title Win on End Run in Last *Period, 776 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. Rally Falls Short The Lambda Chis came roaring back, and might have tied the score if a penalty hadn't interfer- ed.,With the ball on the Sig Ep's 20-yard line and less than three 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.

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. Says, Johnisoni 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.

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. SIU TS Night Editor CORKY SMITH By BOB JONES 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 'M' GYM SCHEDULE December 11-Midwest Open Meet-Navy Pier, Chicago 27-31-Gymnastics Clinic-Sar- asota, Florida January 8-Open 15-Michigan State - at East Lansing February 5-Minnesota and Wisconsin -at Madison 12-Northwestern-at Evanston 18-Illinois-here, 8 p.m. 19-Indiana-here, 4 p.m. 26-Ohio State-here, 4 p.m. March 4-5-Big Ten Meet - at Min- neapolis 12-Michigan AAU - at East Lansing 25-26-NCAA-at Los Angeles 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.
