SDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1957 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE TA' Scouts-Tell Wolverines About Saturday's Foe By PAUL BORMAN A persistent stray dog, brisk weather and a defensive scrim- mage were featured in yesterday's football practice at Ferry Field. Practice started out with drills to protect against Illini aerials. The visitors' formations and plays are accumulated for the team by two of its coaches, Matt Patanelli and Don Dufek whose job includes scouting opponents for two weeks in advance of the game. Later in the day, Oosterbaan called for a defensive scrimmage where more of the scouts' valuable information was put to use. Ex-Wolverines Patanelli is an ex-Wolverine' and starred at end on the 1934- 35-36 teams while Dufek is of a more recent vintage, having played on the 1949-50-51 squads as fullback. Yesterday, however, Dufek, who is an assistant backfield coach, was more concerned with stopping Tom Haller's passes and Bobby Mitchell's running as he drilled the backs on defense. At the same time, end coach Patanelli was also getting his wingmen ready for Ray Eliot's backs. The players donned parkas, clapped their hands, and jumped up and down trying to keep them- selves warm in the 35 degree tem- perature. Dog As Usual A stray dog, something which seems to be as permanent in Michigan tradition as the Wolver- ine itself, kept the student man- agers busy chasing it for most of the afternoon while it ran back and forth from the freshman and varsity drills. Promising Note One promising note was the re- turn of quarterback Jim Van Pelt to practice., Fullback John Herrnstein is working out regularly but Ooos- terbaan said that he doubted if he will start Moving Up Michigan was ranked ninth and eleventh respectively by the United Press and the Associated Press in this week's national grid polls.

LIONS REVAMP DEFENSE: Tittle, Owens Spark San Francisco By DON DRESCHER Sunday was a great day for veteran San Francisco quarterback Y. A. Tittle. Tittle's performince in the For- ty-Niners 35-31 win over Detroit was nothing short of sensational. strafe or= .-- s The six-foot former Louisiana State star completed 21 passes out of 28 attempts, setting the famed Detroit pass defense back on its heels. Climaxing this stellar perform- ance was a 41-yd. aerial to rookie R. C. Owens in the final ten sec- ond for the winning score.. The Lions had come from behind in the last quarter under the direc- tion of Tobin Rote, who also played a good game, and had taken a 31- rid Pieks- Mistakes Do Happen As we mentioned in yesterday's story, last week's Grid Picks were rough on all. Apparently one of our "experts" who had a bad week just couldn't. take it, for when today's issue came out we found two of the games missing. We would like to apologize, an- nounce that we have a shrunken head for sale, and invite you to enter this week's contest. Just fill out the entry and get it to 420 Maynard. THIS WEEK'S GAMES 1.

Finest Performance San Francisco Coach Frankie Albert, former Stanford quarter- back and twice-named All-Ameri- can, praised Tittle's showing as his finest performance in ten years with the club. Albert, as well as Tittle and many others, hadnoth- ing but praise for the tremendous game played by R. C. Owens. Speaking of Owens, remarkable catch for the game-winning score, Tittle said that he threw the ball long and high and he knew that Owens would be down there to get it. Changes? Lion Coach George Wilson, whose pass defense was plagued for the second week in a row by outstanding passers, remarked, "There's going to be some changes made." He hinted at a breakup of the famed defensive combination of Jack Christiansen, Yale Lary, Jimmy David. and Carl Karilevacz, which has been tops in pro circles for several years. A logical replacement in the unit is Terry Barr, former Michigan star, and a strong defensive player. By AL JONES The last time Michigan entered the Big Ten cross country was 1954, and they won. Track Coach Don Canham and his assistants Elmer Swanson and Lynn Doherty are again grooming a squad to compete after a two- year absence, and again they hope to capture the crown. Three Seniors Leading this year's squad are seniors Geert Keilstrup, Helmar Dollwet and Milt Robinson. The first two should be aimed for high finishes, although Dollwet hasn't yet rounded into shape. The team which will compete in the Conference finals in Chicago on November 16 will consist of seven men. Besides the above three Canham will select four out of the following six: juniors Jack Green, John Dierdorff, and Don Truex, and sophomores Dick Schwartz, Jim Wyman and Bernie Wall. Warmup Meets The team has had a few warmup meets with small colleges already this fall, and has a Big Ten team on the line this Saturday as a final preparation for the Conference meet. This Saturday morning the Wol- verines will face Illinois at Cham- paign. The stiffest competition will come from Illini runner Carl Jons- son from Sweden, who placed high in the Big Ten two-mile race last spring. Red Wings Tie Rangers,1-1 DETROIT (M) - The New York Rangers shared first place in the National Hockey League for the first time in 16 years last night. They climbed into a tie for the lead with the idle Montreal Can- adiens by playing a 1-1 tie with the Detroit Red Wings. Muss Patrick, general manager of the Rangers, a press box visi- tor, said that this was the first time a New York team has had a chunk of the NHL lead since the championship season of 1941-42. Both goals came when Detroit had .a player in the penalty box. Camille Henry scored for New' York, while Alex Delvecchio-tallied for the Wings. Canham stresses the fact that dual-meets show little of what is to be expected when the Confer- ence finals roll around, principally because the field is so much larger in a big meet. He isn't ready yet to make any predictions about the chances for victory on the 16th. At present the personnel isn't certain, and much depends on Dollwet's condition by that date. Boston Wins Over Detroit In NBA Tilt ST. feated fourth raced to their sixth straight NBA victory last night, defeating the Pistons, 111 to 105. The game's high scorer was Boston's Bill Sharman with 28. Harry Gallatin tallied 25 and George Yardley 22 for the Pistons who trailed, 20-23, after one peri- od and 44-58 at the half. This loss drops Detroit out of a tie for the lead in the Western Division of the NBA with Cincin- nati, and helps Boston to continue their complete domination of the Eastern Division. Syracuse was scheduled to play St. Louis in the nightcap of the double-header. Minor League Eyes Pensions NEW YORK (M)-Minor league baseball players from the Ameri- can Association have retained J. Norman Lewis, the big league play- ers' lawyer, to help, them get a pension plan. Lewis said yesterday he had been assured by the eight player repre- sentatives of the American Associ- ation that the International League also would be organized next spring. Both are triple A leagues. LOUIS (M - The unde- Boston Celtics, given a quarter scare by Detroit, r L Foralwiner sports...wear Wig+, woms. Have more fun in their snug, soft warmth. Wigwams are STA.
