He - - IT *kicked the ball into the wind and By DON LINDMAN Bookmakers and football fore- casters undoubtedly breathed a sigh of relief as the 1954 Big Ten grid campaign came to a close with the four Conference contests played last Saturday. As Ohio State closed out an un- beaten season "-and annexed its ninth Western Conference grid crown by edging Michigan, 21-7, football fans all across the na-' tion could only shake their heads in amazement as they scanned the final Big Ten standings. OSU Cops Title They saw Ohio State, an also- ran in the pre-season polls, firm- ly entrenched in the number one spot, reigning as the Western Conference king. Michigan, con- signed to the second division by the experts, was in the fight for the crown until thp final few min- utes of the season, and managed to grab a share of second place. In fourth place in the standings the fans saw Minnesota, destined' to finish no higher than seventh according to the pre-season prog- nosticators. Michigan State and Illinois, co- champions last year and two of the favorites this season, found out what the other end of the stand- ings is like. The highly-touted Il- lini failed to win a Conference game and dropped from last year's spot on top of the standings to the mire of the Big Ten basement this season. Dropping two crucial tilts to Iowa and Wisconsin at the start of the season, the Spartans never; recovered, and only a shaky win over Indiana kept them from shar- ing the cellar with Ray Eliot's eleven. Among the top four teams in the start of the season, only Wis- consin was able to justify its rat-1 ing, moving into a tie for sec- ond by its win over Minnesota. Io- wa, the fourth squad, finished in fifth place by virtue of a good start and a good finish, which sandwiched three miserable mid- season games. Season of Upsets The Big Ten season proved to be poison for the forecasters. One national grid magazine, which specializes in predicting the out- come of every game before the fall practice sessions even begin, missed on 17 of the 32 Conference contests. Gazing at the Big Ten sched- ule in the heat of August, few ex- perts would have been brave enough to predict Michigan to beat' Iowa, Ohio State to top Wiscon- sin, or Northwestern and Ohio State to both topple the Illini. As' the season developed, these were only four of the many upsets which Big Ten fans witnessed. Wolverines Gain Honors Michigan's End Ron Kramer and Tackle Art Walker were named to the first teams., of two all-Big Ten grid squads announced yesterday. Both prospective all-Americans, Kramer and Walker gained the Big Ten honors in the Associated Press survey as well as in the first an- nual poll of Western Conference sports editors. Kramer's total of 17 points in the editors' poll was sec- ond only to Alan (the Horse) Ame- che, who was a unanimous choice. Ohio State placed three players ~on the first teams of both polls. Wisconsin and Purdue joined Mich- igan in providing two members apiece. Cal Jones was Iowa's only representative on both honor squads. Minnesota and Michigan State shared the remaining spot, eachtplacing a man on one of the two teams. No Wolverines were chosen to either survey's second team, but five of Bennie Oosterbaan's prote- ges were awarded Honorable Men- tion by the AP. They included Cap- tain Ted Cachey at tackle, Jim Bates at center, and backs Lou Baldacci, Fred Baer, and Dan Cline. The AP's first team lines up as follows: Ends-Dean Dugger, Ohio State, and Ron Kramer, Michigan. Tackles-Art Walker, Michigan, and Dick Hilinski, Ohio State. Guards-Cal Jones, Iowa, and Tom Bettis, Purdue. Center - Gary Messner, Wiscon- sin.r Backs - Len Dawson, Purdue; Howie Cassady, Ohio State; Bob Mc Namara, Minnesota; and Alan Ameche, Wisconsin.

Three players, Jim Barron, Don Eaddy, and Jim Shearon will share the duties at the guard slots. Harvey Williams, the lanky 6-8 Junior from Louisville, Ky., will start at center. Williams, who has been working hard since practice began, has, as Perigo noted, "greatly improved over last year." Captain Paul Groffsky will hold down one of the forward positions and Tom Jorgenson and Miller Lingle will alternate at the other. It is debatable as to how much ac- tion Jorgenson and Lingle will see in tonight's contest. Jorgenson Troubled By Injury Jorgenson, who averaged 12.3 points per game last season, has been sidelined with a sprained ankle and "charley horse," sus- tained in the intramural football fi- nals. The injury has slowed him down and he is still sub-par physi- cally. Lingle, a sophomore, has also been plagued with a sprained ankle. Others who are sure to see some action this evening are Bob Shar- land, a sophomore from Ishpem- ing, and senior Bruce Allen. . Gridders Ron Kramer and Tom Maentz have taken a "vacation" and will not report for practice un- til Friday. It is hoped by the coach- ing staff that Kramer will be able to work himself into shape quickly; for the Detroit star is expected to help most where the Wolverines are woefully weak: in the rebound- ing department. TOM JORGENSON ... a question mark The game, a full-length affair, gets underway at 8 and will be free to the general public. Starting Team Undecided Though Perigo has not yet de- cided who will be in the lineup when the contest begins, there are seven men who are sure to see a Maize Gymnasts Down Blue I1 I d C +tt7siA . . ..r., in _ntrasquaa .. qt.; By BOB JONES Sparked by the favorable per- formance of all-around gymnast Frank Adams, the Maize half of the Michigan gymnastics team edged the Blue, 60-58, in an intra- squad meet yesterday-the first of the season for coach Newt Lo- ken's charges. Although the team as a whole looked "only fair," Loken was pleased with Adam's performance. It was the first time the burly Finale Winding up its final week end of picking the top 15 gridiron clashes, the Daily sports staff wishes to thank everyone who entered selections in the con- test.

NCAA Meet EAST LANSING (R") - Allen Frame, the Big Seven champ from Kansas University, crossed the tape ahead of a bunched group of othersectional favorites to win the 16th annual NCAA crd'ss coun- try run yesterday with a fast time of 19:54.2. Oklahoma A&M with a low of 61 points, won the team title from defending champion Kansas, which placed fourth. After running with the pack most of the way, Frame put on a kick in the last half mile of the four-mile distance to finish about 35 yards in front of George King of NYU, in second place. Michigan's Coach Don Canham did not enter the Wolverines in the meet, but instead gave them a well-earned rest until after Thanksgiving vacation when the track season will get into full swing. Frank Eckhoff of Oklahoma A&M was third, George Terry of Boston University forth and Ar- nold Sowell of Pittsburgh fifth. it hit the crossbar, bounced back onto the field for a touchback. In the Western Division, the Lions edged still closer to an un- precedented third straight title. Bobby Layne tossed two scoring passes as the champs nipped Green Bay, 21-17. Any combina- tion of Lion wins and 49er de- feats totalling two, will give Bud- dy Parker his third championship. Ollie Matson crossed paydirt four times to pace the Chicago Cardinals to a 38-16 decision over the Washington Redskins. It was only the second victory of the year for the Cards. In other games, the Chicago Bears stopped Baltimore, 28-13, and San Francisco blasted Pitts- burgh, 31-3. For solution see paragraph below. Droodle submitted by Michael Gross, C.C.N.Y.
