Too Much Blue for Ted'
r1 E DRESSING ROOM wasn't too crowded now. A few of the
players were still dressing. The managers were finishing their job.
Nobody was looking too happy. Then we saw the man we were looking
for. We didn't have to walk over to him. He came to us.
"I suppose you fellows want to see me," he said. He was smiling,
but it wasn't the kind of smile that comes easily. His team had just
been humiliated, and Earl "Red" Blaik's teams have seldom been
humiliated. But, besides coaching a team, Blaik had another job
awaiting him; he had to face the reporters after it was all over.'
Sometimes it's rough. This time it was.
We formed a semi-circle around Army's coach. He didn't waste
any time, speaking freely, logically, coherently. You can learn an
awful lot about football by listening to a coach of Blaik's stature.
"Michigan has a very fine football
team," he admitted. "Better than
last year. We were expecting quite
a game, and we sure got one."
Did he expect to lose by so big
a score? "Expect to lose by that ?
much?" he repeated. "No, we didn t
expect to lose-at all. To be quite
frank, I had great hopes of win-
ping this game. I knew that Mich-
igan would be tough, but I honestly
a thought we had a good chance.
We don't know what happened
and won't find out until we study
the movies. As for my immediate
post-game reaction, I'm stunned.
Any coach would be stunned if
his- team made eight fumbles, los-
ing the ball after six of them. Any
coach would be stunned if his team :
was losing by 48 points going into
the Afinal quarter. .I have seen
Arm ay an gamsv. I have ...
seen them at their best (Blanchard
and Davis) and at their worst
(right after the cribbing scandal), COACH BLAIK
but, Saturday's performance was ... 'stunned'
unbelievable.
Blaik knew 'be had lost to a better team, but said that Army's
excessive fumbling did not result from bruising tackling by Michigan.
We had to agree with him on this point. The Cadets often fumbled
before they were hit. "I'm sure it has something to do with the
mechanics of exchange," he said, "but we'll know for sure after
seeing the movies."
Good Day for the Scrubs ..
Let's not take anything away from the Wolverines. They played
superb football, and could have run the score into the sixties if they
had wished. It was a wonderful game for almost everyone on the
Michigan bench. Most of the scrubs saw action. The stars were at
their peaks. And-here's an interesting note-the casualty list isn't
long at all.
Jim Dickey and Jack Lousma incurred ankle injuries against the
Cadets, and probably won't play against. Northwestern this week. On
the brighter side, Ron Kramer and Terry Barr, although not com-
pletely recovered from their injuries, did not aggravate their bruises
further.
Let's throw in this opinion for comment. Kick it around, but
please don't mutilate it. Remember Michigan State's team last year?
They lost to Michigan by one touchdown early in the season... and
were a menace after that.
Michigan might very well copy the Spartans of '55 this year.

counsel, all undermining the aca-.
demic integrity of the conference'
members.
"Coaching staffs will be em-
ployed only incidentally for their
teaching abilities; their prime
qualification will be recruiting
ability and secondary school con-
tacts.
"A state of disunity amounting
to virtual-anarchy will occur in the
administration of rules and regula-
tions, as their meaning and effect
will be interpreted to its own ad-
vantage by each school.
"Athletes will be segregated in
all campus activities from student
bodies at large. The latter, if
they show interest at all, will sup-
port college teams only as they
show interest in any gladitorial
contest.
"Their behavior will be exactly
that expected at any such contest'
and not subject to school disci-
pline. The educational aspect of
spectator sports in fostering the
ideal of good sportsmanship will
have completely disappeared."
Chinese Tie
Turkey, 1-1L,
In Soccer.-Tilt
In the second round of the In-
ternational Students' Association
Soccer Tournament last Sunday
at Wines Field China held de-
fending champion Turkey to a 1-1
tie.
Time after time the Turks pene-
trated deep into the Chinese de-
fenses, only to be repulsed. K. C.
Quan, China's goalie, thrilled the
crowd with his spectacular saves.
China's Francis Cheng and Tur-
key's Mazaffer Ozdenler provided
the scoring in the overtime game.
Last year's runners-up, Burma,
lost to Venezuela, 3-1. Alcides
Guevara, Alvaro Estrella and Ar-
mando Vargas were responsible for
Venezuela's goals. Chan Tha
scored for the losers.
The International Eleven grap-
pled with Latvia and came out on
the long end of a 6-3 score. Bill
Pentland from Scotland and Arm-
strong Mensah from the Gold
Coast shared the scoringhonors
with three and two goals respec-
tively.

Patterson,
Moore Plan'
Title Fight
CHICAGO (A)-Floyd Patterson
and Archie Moore have agreed to
meet in a ,15-round heavyweight
title fight in Chicago Stadium Fri-
day, Nov. 30, the International
Boxing Club announced yesterday.
The contract signing will be in
Chicago next week and terms will
be announced at that time, the
IBC said.
The ageless Moore was knocked
out in the 11th round of his
heavyweight title attempt by
champion Rocky Marciano, now
retired, in September of last year.
Patterson hasn't fought since
last June 8 when he defeated Hur-
ricane Jackson in 12 rounds. He
fractured a hand in that fight.

The report also said:
Recruiting at Big Ten schools is
characterized by increasingly ef-
ficient and energetic organization,
amounting to nearly complete
pre-matriculation screening of
squad personnel.
Out of 258 Conference football
lettermen last year, 246 had been
interviewed or corresponded with
prior to matriculation by football
staff members.
Pre-School Visits Prevail
Campus visits prior to enroll-
ment for the purpose of inter-
views with coaching staff are the
athlete will not have made visits
to at least three schools. A sur-
vey indicates that upwards of 500
prospective athletes will visit each
Conference school this year.
Entertainment of prospects for
the current year averages nearly
$5,000, running to as high as $13,-
600. The report didn't say if it
was an average per school, as was
indicated.
Coaches have been hired with
specific attention to their con-
tacts among high school coaches
in certain "fertile" areas. All but
one Big Ten football staff reports
it maintains a filing system or a
clipping service to tabulate the
records of high school players.
There is increasing reliance
upon alumni to establish contacts
and arrange campus visits. A var-
iation of this is the high school

MICHIGAN TROUNCED:
Cooley, Scott,_Williams Win I-M Tilts

By BOB BOLTON
Cooley House, an also-ran
among residence hall football
teams last year, moved a step clos-
er to a first-place intramural
playoff berth by romping over
Michigan House, 25-0, for its third
straight victory.
Ten Games Played
A full slate of ten games were
played yesterday in the. Indian-
summer heat that blanketed South
Ferry Field. Seven of the contests
were residence halls class "A" and
three were social fraternity "B".
Tailba fk Bruce Conybear led
Cooley to victory as he fired three
touchdown passes - one each to
Ed Gordon, Kim Greene and Sid
Levine. Gordon scored the last
touchdown by moving 20 yds. with
a pitchout from Greene.
Scott spotted Adams an early
touchdown and then roared back
with two of its own to win a hard

fought 13-6 victory. Both the Scott
markers followed the same route
as Jack Mogk hit Les Janoff twice
in the Adams end zone with well-
placed heaves.

gan to Ron Deem clicked for two

Van Tyne for its second straight
win, 12-0.
Greene Tops Reeves'
Val Milholland streaked the
length of the field with an inter-
cepted pass in the fading moments
of play to give Greene a 12-6 win
over Reeves House.

Hot tempers seemed to be the
byword as Gomberg House rolled
to its second straight win by crush-
ing Huber, 27-7. The game was a
bitterly-fought contest from the
opening whistle and several rough-
ness penalties were called.
In other residence hall games,
Hinsdale defeated Anderson, 19-
12; Strauss edged Wenley, 14-13,
and Kelsey downed Winchell, 12-
0; while in social fraternity "B"
ball, Theta Chi squeezed by Tau
Delta Phi in overtime, 7-6; Sigma
Alpha Epsilon hammered Phi
Gamma Delta, 19-6 and Delta Tau
Delta edged by Pi Lambda Phi,
14-13.
