CONTACT THE PLACEMENT BUREAU for appointments Coach Vic Heyliger has his hockey team in full swing for this Friday's opener here against Mc-, Gill University. Thanksgiving vacation was no slowing factor, as the Wolverines stepped up drills every day last weekend. Yesterday saw Michi- gan scrimmage the Toledo Mer- curys of the professional Interna- tional Hockey League at the Coli- seum. Heyliger is hoping that his team can get off to a faster start than last year, when they were woe- fully undermanned. As defend- ing NCAA hockey champions, Michigan will be doubly dangerous this winter with the addition of four key sophomores on offense. Counted on heavily in the "new and welcomed depth" will be for- ward Wally Maxwell, who Heyliger describes as a "natural." Junior star Tom Rendall has recovered from a minor nose operation and should be ready to lead the second line Friday. His partners will be sophs Ed Switzer and Neil McDonald, both of whom are finally rounding into shape. Fourth sophomore threat is fast- improving Don McIntosh, who will be on the third forward wall with veterans Jerry Karpinka and Jay Goold. Sophomores Add Depth To 'M' Hockey Champs Athletes Help Union Opera To Success The Union Opera will continue one of Michigan's most famous traditions, later this week, when it names the three athletes who will appear in "Film Flam," this year's Opera. "The list of athletes who have appeared in past Operas is quite impressive-in fact, it's close to awe-inspiring. The whole thing started-and almost ended-in 1940. "Four out of Five" was the Union's presentation that year Someone got this idea: Why not persuade some star Wolverine sports personalities to participate in the show, if only for one num- ber. r *I like 2jackets for the price of nylon SEA GULL by TVP TL4 What a buy!

So on the stage simultaneously were Harmon, one of the greatest triple-threat backs in football his- tory, Evashevski, his superb block- ing back, and Westfall, the crush- ing fullback. The Opera closed shop after 1940 because of the war, but came back to Michigan in 1-948. It wasn't until the following year, however, that the muscle-men re- turned to the kliegs. Sports - Stars A Fixture Since '49, sports stars have con- stantly held their place in the Union Opera. Such greats as Dick Rifenburg, All-American Wolver- ine end in 1948, Wally Teninga, his jack-of-all-trades backfield team- mate, and brilliant tailback Chuck Ortmann have performed for the musical troupe. Among the others who have ap- peared are Tim Green, Roger Zat- koff, Art Walker, Dan Cline, John Ross, John Morrow, Jim Bates and Lou Baldacci. The latter three appeared in "Hail to Victor," last year's production.

Rule-Changes In Basketball Involve Wideninl Fou Lanre /UNITED i ,;.. A . i Es F 1 as featured in By PETE KASS Michigan basketball fans should find little difference between this. and last year's playing rules. Although more than a dozen changes have been written into the rule book, only two are ex- pected to cause a significant change in the game. The most obvious change is the widening of the foul lane from six to 12 feet. The broader lane has been used successfully in the pro ranks for several years and now the collegians will use the six extra feet to unclog the center of the court and clear the way for faster basketball. Wolverine Coach Bill Perigo be- lieves that the change will have little effect on play except that the small man may be afforded a better chance to drive down the middle of the court. Three Men Out Some squads may position two men in and three out and leave the whole center of the lane open in an attempt to break plays in under the basket. Some coaches feared that widening the lane and bringing three men out would lead to a great many zone defenses, but Perigo doubts this. The only other major rule al- teration affects the length of time WASHABLE McGREGOR SUEDE JACKETS . .. $27.95 TYILD SAms State Street' on the Campus I'.

University that the ball may be held by a closely guarded player. If a player attempts to stall the ball by him- self for more than five seconds and a defensive man stays within reach of him during the stall, a held ball and a jump are called. Prevent One Man Stall The rule is an attempt to pre- vent the game-slowing one man stall. It is difficult to call and has several provisions depending on which part of the floor the in- fraction takes place., There will be trouble in enforcing and inter- preting the rule and so it will probably not be of much conse- quence. Look, eUP Give Kramer Berth. Big Ron, Kramer, Michigan's great end, added two more All- American teams to his honor to make the grand total of four. Last week he had been picked by Colliers and News Enterprise of America, besides the Coach's All Big-Ten team. Now both Look and the United Press have voted him onto their All-American elev- ens. Last Sunday bight Kramer ap- peared on Ed Sullivan's "Toast of the Town" with the other mem- bers of the 66th Collier's All- Ameriga. Each of the players was awarded an engraved 14 Karat gold watch following' their ap- pearance.

With only two games remain- ing, there are two teams in the Eastern Division and four in the Western Division which could pos- sibly take the respective division titles. Cleveland, last week a full game ahead in the Eastern Division, could only tie the New York Giants last Sunday, 35-35. The second place Washington Red- skins beat their opponents, the Pittsburgh Steelers, 23-14, and crept up within half a game of the Browns. Big Upset The biggest surprise in either division, however, was the com- plete rout of the Chicago Bears by their crosstown rivals the Card- inals, 53-14. The loss dropped Chi- cago out of the Western Division lead, and moved the Cardinals into a third place tie with New York in the Eastern Division. Both Los Angeles and Baltimore won Sunday. Green Bay lost but still has a chance to ,tie for the division title. Four teams, there- fore, have a chance for the West- ern Division title, and only a half game separates each of them. The Ram's victory over the. Philadelphia Eagles was full of the dramatics that go with a tight title race. Los Angeles was behind 21-20 with two minutes remaining when they got possession of the football when the! Eagles kicked off. Rams Move Norm Van Bxocklin moved his team to the 26, completing four out of four passes in the drive. Since only seven seconds re- mained, Les Richter made the field goal attempt, it was good, and the Rams won, 23-21. The victory -put them back in first place since the Bears lost. Baltimore remained in title con- tention by beating lowly San Fran- cisco, 26-14. The Detroit Lions beat the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving Day, 24-10. The Lions win enabled them to tie San Francisco for the cellar position, and the Lions now have the chance to move past the 49ers and out of the cellar for the first time this year. It depends on the next two games, of course. ' Big Games In the Eastern Division the Browns are playing Pittsburgh and Washington is going against the New York Giants. The Giants jeo- pordized the Brown's title chances by tying them Sunday. Maybe they'll eliminate Washington next Sunday. Who can tell? NFL Standings WESTERN DIVISION W L*T Pet.
