'EMBER 179 1957 THE MICHIGAN :DAILY EMBER 1, 1957 ~lE MICIGA AL Wolverines All 1Yl~p 7 osiserse27-13 BLUE NOTES MSU Smashes Minnesota, Wisconsin Conquers Illinois By John Hillyer Success DON'T COMPLAIN-Michigan won. The Wolverines have always-or almost always-made it a policy not to run up large scores when the opportunity to do so onfronts them. This policy continued yesterday afternoon as they easily got the best of Indiana, 27-13. Actually, it might not have been so easy had it not been for another flashy ,one-man show by Jimmy Pace. The Little Rock sprinter scored two touchdowns and set up another with a long run. He now has 48 points in conference play, good for a tie for the leadership with Ohio State's Don Clark, who didn't play yesterday. The showdown will take place next weekend. Pace gained 128 yards and averaged 8.5 a carry. He was probably the main reason why there weren't fewer than 56,254 on hand to watch the action. This was obviously a weekend when students were fishing-and not too deep-for excuses to be elsewhere than Michigan Stadium on Saturday afternoon. .yBut those who did attend saw a much-improved Indiana squad give the hosts a pretty interesting time of it, at least for most of the game.The Hoosiers haven't won a Big Ten game all year, but yesterday they must have felt just a little better than usual about losing. They scored twice as' many touchdowns as they had against conference competition all season, they intercepted five passes and they were just a touchdown to the bad at halftime. A Tradition .. . LOSING FOOTBALL GAMES is rapidly becoming an Indiana tradi- tion, and the difference between a Michigan locker-room after a loss and Indiana's yesterday was really a revelation. The atmosphere was almost relaxed. Coach Bob Hicks is a pleasant-looking, pleasant-acting gentleman in his mid-thirties who could never be recognized as coach of a Big Ten team with an excellent chance to lose all of its Conference games. He was smiling and joking with reporters when we walked in. "We finally played a respectable football game," he said enthusi- astically. "We made too many mistakes to win it, but our kids fought like hell. They'll try again next week (against arch-rival Purdue). No kidding, they give it everything they've got." Some of the Indiana players in past weeks have quit the squad in disgust, and Hicks was obvously proud of his "men" who yesterday performed admirably without the help of the "boys" who dropped out. It was obviously their best showing of the season-especially that of halfback Jim Yore, a 210-1b. speed merchant from Battle Creek. Yore specialized in reverses, where he would start out on the right wing, take the ball from the quarterback and burst to the left,' either off-tackle, off-guard or around the end. Hicks had nothing but praise for Pace (like everyone else). "He's a mighty fine athlete-one of the best.I've ever seen." Bennie Oosterbaan was happy to win, but admitted he'd expected more from his charges, especially the third and fourth stringst He called the Hoosiers a "fighting team. I thought they hit hard, and they never gave up." An Experiment... HE EXPLAINED his use of fullback Jim Byers, who had two ankle sprains. "We wanted to try out his ankles," Oosterbaan said. "The trainer OK'd it and Byers wanted to go. Exercise is supposed to help after a certain period of time." The big boy couldn't stay in long, however, and limped off the field after a few plays. Oosterbaan said his condition was not worsened by the venture. It's easy to imagine why Byers, who is from- Evansville, Ind., and whose brother, Phil, played basketball at I.U., was itching to rough it for a while. First-string fullback John Herrnstein didn't have such a good time of it, however. To add to his bad foot, he received a serious hip injury yesterday and had to leave early. Quarterback Jim Van Pelt hurt his knee, and Oosterbaan kept him out for the rest of the game. "He could have gone back in, but we wanted to save him," the coach said. It was a day for substituting, and in this respect Michigan sup- porters shouldn't be too upset because Indiana scored its highest Big Ten total for the year or because Michigan's score was the lowest against the Hoosiers in a Conference fray to date, Men like Rio, McCoy, Harper, Groce, Spidel, Morrow, Dickey and Bob Johnson, who beat their brains out all week in practice just as the first-stringers do, should be given the chance when it arrives. True, the Wolverines revealed their lack of depth when these athletes were in, but perhaps this is something that should be discovered. So this one goes into the books, and rightly so, as a Michigan victory. Once again, all is well. Now let's get those Buckeyes! By The Associated Press' Michigan State used a combina- tion of blinding speed and crush- ing power to completely overrun Minnesota, 42-13, yesterday. A crowd of 65,718 saw the snappy Spartans roll to a 35-0 halftime lead and coast in from there. It was an afternoon of frustration for Minnesota, which now has three wins against four losses in conference play. The Gopher ground game was stopped nearly cold, and State's big ends kept crashing in to break up pass attempts by quarterbacks Bobby Cox and Dick Larsen. Wisconsin Wins In another Big Ten game, Wis- consin, relying on its stable of fine sophomores, and a rock ribbed defense, registered a surprisingly easy 24-13 victory over sputtering Illinois. A homecoming crowd of 52,384 at Camp Randal Stadium watched f -Daily-Fred Shippey ON HIS WAY-Speedy halfback Jim Pace gains momentum as he gallops away from would-be Indiana tacklers in the second quarter of yesterday's game. Pace Leads Michigan in Win over Indiana; Year's Smallest ome Crowd Sees Contest < -- (Continued from Page 1) Tom Kendrick. Between them they picked up 134 of their teams 145 yards on the ground. It was the agreed opinion of Hoosier coach Bob Hicks and a sportswriter from Indianapolis that yesterday's game was In- diana's best of the season. They also agreed that Yore and Ken- drickahad played better than ever before. All Pace No one could outshine Pace,. however. On Michigan's first three touchdowns, it was Pace who did the majority of ball-moving. On the first touchdown Michi- gan marched 48 yards. Pace ran' for 33 of these and went. over for the score. On the second touchdown, Mich- igan went 55 yards, Pace 31. Van Pelt's pass to Gary Prahst put the ball in the end zone. For the third score, the Wol- verines' marched 69 yards, this time Pace grinding out 43 of them and adding his second six ? point contribution at the end of the drive.. Center Ray Wine intercepted an Indiana aerial on the Hoosier 43 and returned it to the 17 to set up Michigan's last score. Five plays later, Brad Meyers ran it over after taking a short pass from PtaCek. Two Touchdowns Indiana's two touchdowns - a feat they haven't performed since edging Villanova three weeks ago -were scored by fullback Ed. Fritz and Yore. Fritz's came on a one- yd. plunge in the second quarter and Yore ran eight yards around left end in the fourth quarter to score his. Many Wolverines who normpally sit out much or all of the game saw action yesterday as Coach Bennie Oosterbaan used 38 play- ers, many of the lower strings playing much of the second half. Only John Herrnstein was in- jured more than slightly for Mich- igan. The hard-luck fullback re- injured his foot and may be out for next week's contest with con- ference champion Ohio State. Van Pelt and Byers, who were both shaken up, were reported to be all right. After the victory Head Coadh Bennie Oosterbann seemed to feel that his team's not - up - to - par showing was due primarily to the advances on Indiana. He admitted that he didn't feel the team was up any too high for the game. "After all," he said, "they can all read the newspapers." And as the newspapers reported, Indiana isn't a worldbeater.
