THREE WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1956 ~' THE MICHIGAN DAHA PAGE THREE e ยง 4 " v OP Gomberg, Phi Pro Fraternity Crown Won by Nu Sigma Nu Gams Take I-M 'Aootball Titles By GARY PECK Gomberg defeated Williams, 13-7, in the very colorful, highly disputed residence hall first place final playoff game last night at Wines Field. Up to the last minute of play Williams held a narrow 7-6 lead. Then,' after Williams' last threat had stalled on Gomberg's 32, the Big Red marched down the field to score the deciding touchdown as the final gun sounded. Bruce Fox, Gomberg's captain and quarterback, started the drive for the TD by running from his 32 to Williams' 22. Fox tossed for a first down to Bill Earl on the 10, and then hit Bill Wheat in the n end zone. Fox went around end for the extra point. Wililams went ahead in the third quarter on a succession of passes from Ron Jernigan to Ron Deem, captain. The combination also clicked for the extra point. Williams, completely dominat- ing play in the second half until Gomberg's TD march, protested Wolverine Notes the game because they claim Wheat was out of the end zone when he caught the ball. Phi Gamma Delta upset and completely outplayed Sigma Al- pha Epsilon in the first place "A" final playoff game. SAE simply could not get any attack rolling against the sturdy, Phi Gam de- fense. The Phi Gams literally ran the ball over the field in the first half, but settled down in the sec- ond. Of the six times that SAE had the ball, four times Phi Gam in- tercepted and twice SAE punted. Only once did SAE enter Fiji terri- tory. Phi Gam scored first in the first quarter after intercepting a SAE pass on their own 18. Jack Wheel- er then connected with Bill Stein- meyer to the 30. On the next play Wheeler caught an aerial and ran to the SAE 30. Wheeler passed to Gene Honeyman for the tally and the extra point as the first quar- ter ended. On the first play after the kick- off, Wheeler intercepted on his own 35, and on the succeeding play, hit Honeyman for the sec- ond tally. The extra point was missed and the score remained, 13-0. In a clean, hard-played game, Nu Sigma Nu repeated its per- formance of last year and won the professional fraternity "A" cham- pionship by beating Phi Alpha Kappa, 29-6. Phi Alpha Kappa drew first blood on a pass from Roger Post- mus to Don Piersma. Piersma lat- eralled to Ron Bas who ran all the way for the tally. The rest of the game was com- pletely Nu Sig. Fran Gutman heaved for all four TD's, pasted fo rall extra point attempts, and rushed hard to force the Phi Al- pha Kappa safety. In the other first place playoff game, the Seldom Seen Kids beat the Evans Scholars, 19-6, in what proved to be a very rough, penal- ty-ridden contest. Jack Watson, captain of the 'Kids, passed for all the TD's and extra point at- tempts. The Scholars got their tally on apass from Tony Drabik LONG GAINER-Jim Pace, junior left halfback, breaks loose and sprints 30 yards down the sidelines in last year's Indiana game. Pace, who had a great day against Illinois last week, hopes to repeat his performance against the Hoosiers. Sigma Chi Captures A' Second Place Playoffs 4> Wolverines Show Spirit; Pass well Practicing under sunny skies and in cool weather, the Michigan Wol- verines kept warm by preparing for Indiana yesterday at Ferry Field. Quite evident was the spirit dis- played by everyone, including head coach Bennie Oosterbaan. Barr Runs Well Attending practice and showing little sign of last Saturday's re- curring injury was Terry Barr. Although not 100 per cent effi- cient, Barr ran well out of his right halfback slot. Much of the practice session went into preparing a defense against the Hoosiers. The first and second team lines could be seen as they sharpened up their blocking assignments under the tutelage of coaches Jack Blott and Don Holloway. Still missing from practice, due to the injury he sustained two weeks ago, was lineman Gerry Marciniak. In the latter part of practice the offensive units went through their repertoire of plays. with Jim Pace running as hard and as well as he exhibited in cast Saturday's game. Passes Click The passing patterns were click- ing consistently. Quarterbacks Jim Van Pelt and Jim Maddock, along with tailbacks Bob Ptacek and Pace were hitting receivers accur- ately, especially Ron Kramer and Tom Maentz. The Michigan passing attack, led by Ptacek, has been much sharper this year than it was a year ago., I For the second straight week, the Daily Sports Staff took a les- son in football forecasting from its faculty guest. Dean of Men, Walter B. Rea, topped all staff members in last week's Grid Picks contest by post- ing a fine 15-5 record. On the strength of this and the sparkling 17-3 record of Assistant to the Dean Bill Gross, the pre- vious week, the Guest Staff is now only one "pick" from the top. This week's prize will be two free tickets to either "Showdown at Abilene" at the Michigan theater or "Back from Eternity" at the State. All entries must be received at the Daily no later than noon, Fri- day. There are entry blanks at the main desk, or if you prefer, you may mail your predictions to Soccer Team Wins The Michigan Soccer Club is headed into its final week of the season. The squad chalked up its first win last Saturday by defeating Eastern Michigan College team 3-2 at Wines Field. Tony Wallwork, John Bilson and Roger Levy scored for the Wolver- ines. The team has lost one and tied one game. * * * M' Sailors Win The Michigan Sailing Club plac- ed first in a five school regatta Saturday, at Bay View Yacht Club in Detroit. Michigan's Bruce Goldsmith was high man in the meet with 26 points and Dexter Thede scored 21 points for the Maize and Blue. By BILL BENNETT and DAVE LYON Sigma Chi captured the social fraternity "A" touch football sec- ond-place championship by edging Tau Delta Phi, 7-6, under the lights at Wines Field last night. Ken Tippery passed to Carl Nordberg for the Sigma Chi touch- down and then added the extra point to account for the victors' scoring. Tau Delt scored late in th game on Ron Charfoos' TD pass to Aaron Podhurst, but could not tally the tying point. Sigma Chi "B" Team Wins Sigma Chi's "B" team qualified for a berth in the first-place fi- nals, with a 14-7 victory over Chi Psi. John Wylie was the scoring star for Sigma Chi, going over for both six-pointers. In other "B" fraternity playoff contests, Sigma Phi Epsilon and Alpha Tau Omega won the right to face each other for the second- place championship by taking semifinal games yesterday. Sig Eps Top SAE In a tight defensive battle, Sig- ma Phi Epsilon topped SAE, 1-0 in overtime. Neither team could Grid Picks, 420 Maynard Street, Ann Arbor. THIS WEEK'S GAMES 1. Indiana at MICHIGAN 2.

Faculty Guest Again Beats Sports Staff in Grid Picks GERRY MARCINIAK ... still injured NCA A Raps Four More Universities DETROIT T')- The National Collegiate Athletic Assn. Council last night placed four major schools on probation, banning three of them from participating in all NCAA-sponsored and cooperat- ing events for periods ranging from nine months to four years. The four schools are North Caro- lina State College, Ohio State Uni- versity, the University of Southern California and the University of California. At the same time, the council refused to lift probations against the University of Miami, Fla. and Texas A&M. The action rules out any possi- bility that football teams from these schools will be able to par- ticipate in post-season bowl games. U OSU UNDEFEATED: Big Ten Race Undecided Last Saturday's Big Ten results did little to clear up the Rose Bowl situation. The Big Ten representative to Pasadena January 1 will probably not be decided until the last games of the season. Ohio State, ineligible for Rose Bowl play this year because of Big Ten disciplinary action, easily downed Indiana, 35-14, to remain undefeated in conference play. A big favorite for the Big Ten championship, the Buckeyes are scheduled to meet Iowa and Michi- gan on the next two Saturdays. Both of these teams have Bowl hopes and a victory by either over the Buckeyes is a prerequisite for the trip west. Iowa scored a,7-0 victory over previously unbeaten, once tied Minnesota. The Golden Gophers are also aspiring for a Rose Bowl bid, but must get by powerful Michigan State next Saturday. Michigan State barely managed to beat Purdue, 12-9. Playing with- out their star halfback, Clarence Peaks, the Spartans had trouble through the entire game. Michi- gan State is also ineligible for Rose Bowl competition because it played last year. At present the Spartans have a 4-1 record with only one Confer- ence game left. In a game between two of the apparently weak sisters of the con- ference, Northwestern downed Wisconsin, ,17-7. The game was marked by a great deal of fumbles on both sides, with Northwestern taking advantage of those it re- covered.
