THE MICHIGAN 1lMAILt PACE THRTV THE MICHIGAN IiAiL~ PAGE THREE --T Cooley, Williams, Wenley Win Opening I- Football Contests, I' Game of the Year? THE SCRIPT for Saturday says that the colorfully-traditional Michigan-Michigan State battle might be this fall's game of the year. A sell-out since July, this contest could be the most crucial one in deciding which Big Ten team-Ohio State, MSU, Michigan, or Illinois, is goirg to win the much-sought after Conference champion- ship. The Blue chips will be down. Figure it this way: Michigan and Illinois play seven Western Conference teams; Ohio State and Michi- gan State play only six. If State wins, it has a good chance of going undefeated, since it doesn't play the Buckeyes. If Michigan wins, the Wolverines could take the crown even by beating Illinois and losing to Ohio State. There are, of course, many other combinations of outcomes, es- pecially with Lady Upset smiling and/or leering every weekend. As the Wolverines concentrate their efforts this week at Ferry t Field, there is much looking back ° ff to Saturday's UCLA encounter to 4 seek some sort of answer as to just what lies ahead. Michigan had no trouble with a weakened UCLA team. State was quite strong in beating Stanford, rated one of the best on the West Coast, 21-7. Michigan Coach Bennie Ooster baan called the opener,"' A fairly ' typical . opening game," with a usual amount of fumbles, defen- sive mistakes, and general un- easiness. But behind the statistics, there are some interesting notes The Wolverines used just about as many single wing plays as T- formation, but starting quarter- back Jim Van Pelt called mostly . the former, setting up the solid JIM PACE running attack of tailbacks Bobshfytibc Ptacek and Jim Pace. ., shifty tailback Besides Michigan's impressive running game, there ,was a scent of new things in passing; and, perhaps, a renewed offensive weapon here that could make a big difference. The running of John Herrnstein was also very promising, as was Terry Barr in his seemingly well-liked new- right half position. But Michigan was obviously not throwing all its punches against the Uclans. There were moments also when the Blue-shirted defense was taking its hard knocks. Wolverine Defense Needs Polish PARTICULARLY noticeable were the problems Michigan had in stopping the short pass. The UCLA single wing also was able to run through the center of the line for fairly consistent drives. De- fensively, Michigan right now has a depth problem in the line that will be troublesome if any serious injuries occur. Several other individuals seemed strong Saturday; especially de- fensive signal-caller Mike Rotunno and back Van Pelt, who made several key tackles to stop the Bruins' ground attack. Kramer was his top-shape, rock-rugged self and Maentz played another of his spirited, alert games at end. Overall, Saturday's result shows a team. of promise and maybe more. Yesterday's drills were light with part of the time spent hear- ing the scouting reports on Michigan State. Encouraging was the fact that there have apparently been no major injury additions. Pace and end Charlie Brooks have slight muscle strains; tackle } Willie Smith is nursing a twisted ankle, while Kramer and Van Pelt have minor hand injuries. Oosterbaan commented at the start of a busy week yesterday, "We can't make some of Saturday's mistakes and expect to win against State." Duffy Daugherty probably is thinking the same thing up in East Lansing. So this writer would like to venture the foggy-crystal ball guess that MSU will be slightly favored to win this Saturday, but that if Michigan does win, it could well be no upset. 'A'. Squads Use Passes In Victories By BOB BOLTON I-M Residence Hall "A" football moved into full swing yesterday as nine games covered the playing surface of South Ferry Field. Because of the advent of a "B" football league the number of participants in yesterday's con- tests was drastically reduced from what it had been in previous years. Conybear to Gordon Clicks In one of the day's hardest fought games Cooley edged Strauss, 9-0. An 18-yard pass from Bruce Conybear to Ed Gordon ac- counted for the game's only touch- down. The conversion was made over the same route. Earlier in the first half John Miller had broken in on Frank Szalwinski of Strauss and trapped him in the end zone for the Tro- jans other points. Williams relied on good defen- sive work to make a one touch- down lead stand up as they squeezed by Anderson, 6-0. Shortly Maglie Sick The question as to who will be Brooklyn's pitcher in the open- ing game of the world series tomorrow became further cloud- ed yesterday when Sal Maglie came down with an upset stom- ach. after the game had begun Quint Sterling turned left end and sprinted 25 yards for the tally. Adams Routed The day's highest scoring game featured a 19-0 rout of Adams by Wenley. Freely employing an open air attack Wenley's Wayne King fired three touchdown passes. Dick LeMay caught two scoring heaves of five and 30 yards with Bob Ashton pulling down a 15-yard pass for the final marker. In other games Huber downed Allen-Rumsey, 12-0; Taylor set down Lloyd, 7-0; Scott crushed Michigan, 15-2; Kelsey slammed Reeves, 12-0; Van Tyne defeated Chicago '6-0, and Green edged Hayden, 2-0.

Another upset came in the form of a 28-21 Baltimore Colt victory over the Chicago Bears. The highly touted Bears were felled by the spectacular passing of Baltimore quarterback George Shaw who completed 19 of 25 passes for 143 yards. The supposed "have nothings" of professional football, the Pitts- burgh Steelers, came up with a big surprise in their smashing 30- 13 victory over the Washington Redskins. Last year's Western Division Champs, the Los Angeles Rams, rolled to an easy 27-7 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Stout defensive play, highlighted by two timely interceptions gave the Detroit Lions a 20-16 win over the Green Bay Packers. The New York Giants scored 17 quick points over a dazed San Francisco 49er team and coasted to a 38-21 victory. The Giants scored the first three times they laid their hands on the pigskin.
