By PAUL BORMAN
From the cellar to first place
in one season is the story of the
Detroit Lions who are currently
the only undefeated team in the
National Football League.
Four major changes have high-
lighted the Lions' return as divis-
ion leaders.
Stars Return
The first of these is the return
from the armed forces of four of
their top players in the previous
championship seasons.
The returnees are Yale Lary,
who has returned to bolster the
Lion defense; Bill Bowman and
Gene Gedman who added strength
and running power to the fullback
slot; and Oliver Spencer who has
filled the tackle spot which was
weakened by injuries and the re-
tirement of Thurman McGraw.
Another change, and perhaps
the most important of all has been
the healing of quarterback Bobby
Layne's sore arm. Thoroughout
last season Layne was rarely ef-
fective because of his disability
and since there wasn't an able re-
placement available, the team's
offense completely collapsed.
Draft Helps
By finishing last in their divis-

ion, the Lions had a chance to
pick the top draft choices. This
apparently payed off, since How-
ard Cassady and Don McIllhenny
have proved to be the Lion's top
backs this season, and unmber
among the best rookies in the
league.
When Les Bingaman retired his
350 pounds after the 1954 cham-
pionship season, the Lions were
left without a middle guard. Last
year they made trades and ex-
perimented to find a replacement
or replacements for Bingamen but
it was to no avail. The middle of
their line, previously their strong-
est spot on defense, became their
big weakness.
Find Middle Guard
Last winter, when Lion coach
Buddy Parker decided that he had
to have a good middle guard at
any cost, he traded All-Pro guard
Dick Stanfel to the New York
Giants for middle guard, Ray
Krouse.
This deal has paid large divi-
dends for the Lion defense, which
so far this season, has held their
opponents to an average of 15
points per game.

To Be on TV
CHICAGO (A')-Tomorrow'sNBC
regional telecast will present to
all local television viewers the
Illinois-Purdue football game from
Lafayette, Ind.
The Big Ten headquarters have
not yet decided which Conference
game will be on TV November 10.
The choice is between Minnesota-
Iowa or Michigan State-Purdue.

Michigan's football team ran
through its last heavy practice
session yesterday before the crucial
game with the Iowa Hawkeyes to-
morrow afternoon.
The Wolverines will work out
briefly this morning, eat lunch at
the Union, and then the 38-man
travelling squad will leave by plane
for Iowa City in the afternoon.
Barr Runs
Star halfback Terry Barr par-
ticipated in practice yesterday and
ran through some plays, but, at
"only about 60 per cent efficiency,"
according to Head Coach Bennie
Oosterbaan.
Barr, who usually wears the low-
cut grid shoes typical of many
backs today, showed up with a
specially made shoe for his in-
jured ankle, which contained a
protective wrap. Whether this will
give him enough additional sup-
port to play much tomorrow is un-
determined.
Marciniak Out
It was announced yesterday by
the coaching staff that Jerry Mar-
ciniak, 225-lb. sophomore tackle,
would be unable to make the trip
to Iowa. Marciniak has been a stal-
wart on the second team all sea-
son, and his loss is bad news for

the already injury-riddled Wol-
verine forces.
He suffered a chest injury in the
Minnesota game, and, as the ex-
tent of the injury is not quite
known as yet, the staff thought it
would be safer if he did net play
tomorrow. Clem Corona and Jim
Davies were alternating at Mar-
ciniak's tackle spot yesterday.
Tailbacks Hurt
Oosterbaan is still concerned
over the condition of Bob Ptacek's
hip and Jimmy . Pace's charley
horse, but both participated in the
whole practice, and seemed to
show no ill effects from their in-
juries. However, sophomore tackle
Willie Smith was limping badly,
and it is doubtful if he will see
much sustained action tomorrow.
After a short defensive drill
against reserves, the gridders don-
ned helmets and ran through a
semi-scrimmage. Initial blacking
and ball-carrier contact was made,
but actual tackles were avoided, as
the reserves ran through many of
the Iowa plays and formations.
Practice Kicking
Then a brief punting practice
took place, with Ron Kramer, Tom

After a short place-kicking drill,
the varsity concentrated on sharp-
ening its offense. Amid spirited
shouts from the sidelines, the
squad ran through various plays,
emphasizing the ball-handling
phase, and also, by many passes,
showed that it may take to the air
a good deal against the Hawkeyes
tomorrow afternoon.
