THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1957 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE SFV R TflURSDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1957 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE SEVEN Elliott Selected To Coach Wolverines' Backfield G Not Considered by Crisler As Oosterbaan's Successor r- - (Continued from Page 1) other Conference championship to become Crisler's assistant. Oosterbaan, who was Elliott's backfield coach, also had high praise for his new assistant. 'An All-American' 'Elliott is an All-American both on and off the field, and I have gredt admiration for him as a fine gentleman and a student of foot- ball. I am most happy to have him back, and I know the entire Mich- igan family feels the same way." The addition of Elliott to the staff will cause no changes in Michigan o f f e n s i v e patterns. When asked about this, Ooster- baan flatly said, "no". Oosterbaan said that Elliott was coming back to Ann Arbor A within the next seven to ten days with his wife to look for housing, and that ".. . we will try and help him find something." Starts in Spring Elliott will begin his job fully with the opening of spring prac- tice on April 8. Elliott's salary estimates range from $11,300 to $11,500, which, it is reported, will make him the highest-paid assistant on the staff. Elliott was reported to have earned $10,000 as Evashevski's aide. Elliott joined the Iowa staff in 1952. Before that he worked un- der Laverne (Kip) Taylor at Ore- gon State, beginning his career there in 1948. Elliott assisted at spring prac- tice at Michigan in 1948 while he was still a senior. Elliott spent his first year of football eligibility at Purdue as a Marine trainee in 1943 and 1944. He returned from Marine Corps duty in China to Michigan inI 1946. Four Touchdowns That year he scored four touch- downs and had a 5.1 yard season rushing average. In 1947 he was a member of Crisler's streamlined backfield that led Michigan through an un- beaten and untied season to the Big Ten and Rose Bowl cham- pionships. The smooth quartet of Elliott, Bob Chappuis, Jack Weisenbur- ger and Howie Yerges set new records in winning the Rose Bowl crown from Southern California, 49-0, in 1947. Top Scorer That year he was the Big Ten's top scorer with nine touchdowns for 54 points. He was named on the Coaches All-America, be- came the fourth Michigan man to be selected as the most valuable player in the Western Conference, and ended the year by winning the Chicago Tribune Silver Foot- ball trophy. He was second highest ground gainer on the squad with a 6.4 yard average per play in that fi- nal season. I-M Relays Time trials for the annual I-M Indoor Relays will be held at Yost Field House tonight from 7:30 to 9 p.m. The final relays are sched- uled as part of Saturday's dual track meet between Michigan and Illinois.

Hockey Competition Open To Ann Arbor Youngsters BUMP ELLIOTT ... agrees to terms Hockey Tickets A limited supply of the com- bination bus and game admis- sion tickets for the hockey game between Michigan and Michigan State Friday night at East Lansing is still avail- able at the new Student Acti- vities Building on Jefferson St. between 1-4 p.m. at the price of $3.50. Students planning to drive by automobile to the game should be able to purchase un- reserved seats easily if they get to East Lansing an hour be- fore game time, which is 8 p.m., since the Spartans' arena is seldom filled to capacity. FRITZ CRISLER BENNIE OOSTERBAAN ... 'perfectly delighted' ... 'most happy' By SI COLEMAN Those of you who attend Michi- gan hockey games regularly - have you ever wondered about those kids who clean the ice after each game and then shift to their own small skirmishes with the puck? Well, for the most part, they are all members and players of a rather unknown league around the campus area-the Ann Arbor Kid- die League. Youngsters Get Chance Six years ago, four Ann Arbor- ites got together and decided that the youngsters of this area should be provided with an opportunity to play competitive hockey. The Kiddie League resulted from this discussion. Responsible for its formation were principally four men. Michi- gan's present coach, Vic Heyliger was one of them. The hockey coach at the present time at Michigan Tech, Jack McInnes, furnished valuable assistance. An English professor here at the the University lent another hand. His name-Carl Litzenburg. And Dr. Tom Giltson rounded out the four principal founders. These men went for help to the business men of Ann Arbor. Fortu- nately for the youngsters, they got it. Time to use the Coliseum ice was granted by Michigan athletic di- rector "Fritz" Crisler. Unfortu- nately, there was not enough va- cant time to permit the kids to practice, but "even with only game conditions," Heyliger reported, "many of the boys have progressed rather well." The league is composed funda- mentally of boys from the age of nine to 17, and they participate primarily for the reason that they hope to develop themselves into polished hockey players, in addi- tion to just having fun on the ice. Varsity players here at Michigan lend their time to officiate many of the games. At times they also serve as coaches of the individual teams. Perhaps one of these youngsters will be a future Wolverine star or even a professional great. You .never can tell. CC, NODAKS DOMINATE: j WIHL Race Reflected by Scoring By CARL RISEMAN The torrid race for the Western Intercollegiate Hockey League championship is closely reflected in the League's individual scoring race. League-leading Colorado Col- lege claims three of the top six scorers in the league. Second place North Dakota has two of its players in the top six includ- ing the league's leading scorer, Jim Ridley. Ridley has scored 15 goals and has assisted on 15 others, good for 30 points. Bob McCusker, top scorer on the Colorado College squad, re- mained in second place with 28 points. McCusker is also thetop goal-getter in the circuit with 16.. North Dakota's Bill Reichart and Colorado College's Jim Hay are closing in on the leaders. They are tied for third place with 27 points each. Tom Kennedy of Michigan Tech and Ike Scott of Colorado College round out the top six. Ed Pollesel of Michigan State Michigan Intercollegiate Ski Association Sponsors Meets for Student Enthusiasts By PAUL BORMAN Although it is listed as a minor sport at the University because it doesn't receive Varsity recognition, this misleading ranking takes nothing away from the great sport of skiing. Representing Michigan in this exciting sport is the ULLR Ski Club, which competes in regularly- scheduled meets sponsored by the Michigan Intercollegiate Ski As- sociation. At Boyne Mountain The most recent meet was held at Boyne Mountain on February 2-3. Nine Michigan colleges were represented in the seventh annual contest, which consisted* of a downhill race and a slalom. Five participants from each school were allowed to officially compete, although some schools unofficially entered a second team. Skiers were given two chances in each event and the team's four best times in each event were chosen. Competition for first place was narrowed to three schools with the results of the opening event- the downhill race-Michigan State (250.9), Michigan Tech (253.4) and Michigan (257.1). Only seven seconds separated the top trio and in contrast, over 22 seconds elapsed between the third and fourth place squads. Testing the agility of the skiers was the job of the slalom. This concluding race consisted of 26 gates placed around the course in such a way that the skiers had to move around and between them. Closeness in times was just as apparent in the slalom event as in the downhill race with only 16 seconds separating the top trio, while the fourth place squad trailed the third place team by almost one hundred seconds. Tech Leads Way Leading the way was Tech with 346.5, Michigan followed at 359.2 and State was last at 362. Combining the sub-totals, the final results found Tech in first with 599.9 seconds, State second with 612 and the Wolverines third at 616.3. Skiing on the ULLR men's first team were Bob Litzenberger, Balz, Fischer, John Genn, Paul New- comb and Wes Anderson, in order of their finish. Second Team The unofficial second team was made up of John Dinan, Ted Doderhoff, rick Fenski, John Ken- nedy and John Smith. In the women's division, where individual performances are count- ed instead of team performances, Patti Earhart of Michigan took all the individual honors. She placed first in both the downhill and slalom events, re- cording the phenomenal time of 3:03.2. This mark led her chal- lenger by 45.7 seconds. Miss Zimmers Eighth Carol Zimmers, the only other Michigan coed entered, finished eighth in the combined events. Thunder Mountain will be the site of the next meet on February 24, when the club will compete against five other state schools. U.
