V POve THE MICHIGAN DAILY SATURDAY, DECEMBER T, 1057 ICGill Defense Stops Meet Icers; Nebrask BROWNS LEAD IN EAST: Colts' Title To Hinge on 49er Game M' Five To Cagers Seek First Win In Home Opener Tonight By DON DRESCHER This weekend is do or die for many teams in both divisions of the NFL title race as the 'regular season schedule enters the last two weeks. Baltimore, currently setting the pace in the Western Division, will try to eliminate San Francisco. The Forty-Niners are tied with Detroit one game behind the Colts. A Baltimore win would complete- ly erase any hopes the Forty- Niners have of winning the cham- pionship. Both teams have been moving well and both are armed with good passing quarterbacks and able runners. In the meantime the Lions can expect troubles of their own in the form of the Eastern Division lead- er, Cleveland Browns. The Browns need only one win in their re- maining two games to clinch the title in their segment. The Lions have an even bigger stake in the game. A loss could put them com- pletely out of the running if Bal- timore defeats the Forty-Niners. A Detroit victory would also be greatly appreciated by the New york Giants who meet the Pitts- burgh Steelers tomorrow after- noon in a nationally televised game. The Giants rest in second place, a game and a half behind Cleveland.' In an intra-city tilt the Chicago Bears face the Cardinals with each team trying to pick up the pieces of a mediocre season. The Bears, currently fourth in the West, could conceivably surge into second by the season's end. Los Angeles plays host to the Green Bay Packers who will try to raise themselves out of the Western Division cellar. The West is fairly tightly packed and there is still a possibility for consider- able juggling before the final standings are in. In the other contest in Sunday's action, the Philadelphia Eagles travel to Washington to oppose the Redskins. By AL JONES Xi Michigan's basketball team will open its home season tonight at 8:00 p.m. against the Cornhuskers of Nebraska at Yost Field House. Although this is.the second game of the season for the Wolverines, Coach Bill Perigo is hoping to start, things all over again. His cagers dropped their opener at Pittsburgh, Wednesday night, when they were practically run off the court, 72462. Still pondering that initial de- feat, Perigo is uncertain about his starting lineup for tonight. He has tentatively named the same team that started against Pitt: Captain Pete Tillotson and M. C. Burton at forwards, Randy Tarrier at cen- ter, and George Lee and Jack Lewis at guards. Nebraska Tougher "Nebraska is a lot tougher than Pitt," Perigo states. "They have greater heighth and more return- ees, according to the scouting re- ports we have received." The Mich- igan coach has taken advantage of the Midwest Scouting Bureau to get informaton about Nebraska. Coach Jerry Bush will start Don Schmidt and Willie Fitzpatrick at forwards, Bob Mayo at center, and Lyle Nannan and Captain Gary Reimers at guards. Although .Michig an's .starting team will be slightly taller overall than Nebraska, the Cornhuskers are a lot taller than the Pittsburgh team which completely dominated the boards against the Wolverines Wednesday. 'Team Is Tired' "We looked dead against the Panthers," Perigo said. "Our team is tired and isn't looking as sharp as they did two weeks ago.", Lee is suffering from a slight charlie-horse, but is ready to play. Some of the others have been bothered by exams the past few days. "If we can't outrebound them with the usual starters, I will ex- periment," the Wolverine coach explained. "They are too good a team to experiment against, but I may have to juggle the lineup anyway." The Panthers use the fast "give and go" offense, in which they screen for each other and move the ball around alot. If Michigan fails to rebound Perigo will substi- tute smaller men like Billy Wright and Terry Miller and try to outrun them. Nebraska beat Wyoming Thurs- day night, and is rated fourth in the Big Eight, a tough basketball conference including Kansas and Wilt Chamberlain among others.

A ____________________________________s__________ Switzer, Unsworth Tally Only wolverine Scores (Continued from Page 1) The Wolverines held the upper hand at the start when McGill's Leo Konyk was sent off on a two- minute penalty for an illegal check with only 57 seconds gone. Michigan's power play with Captain Neil McDonald, Ed Swit- zer, Don McIntosh, Bob White teamed with defenseman Barry Hayton couldn't dent the Redmen defense with their efforts. McGill finally opened the scor- ing late in the second period at 16:36 while Michigan's Gary Mattson was off with a tripping penalty. sThe tally 'came as six players including goalie Ross Childs were piled up at the Wol- verine net trying to find the loose' puck. The visitors' Dick Baltzan found it behind him, hooked his stick to his side and slid the'puck into the net to give the Redmen a 1-0 margin after two-periods. In the third period Michigan's plays finally began to click as they quickly' closed the margin on a goal by Center Gary Unsworth at 4:15. Hayton started the goal-getting play deep in Michigan's zone, by passing to right wing John Hut- ton who dashed down the right Statistics FIRST PERIOD: No scoring.

COLLEGE SCORES Michigan State 71, Detroit 59 Missouri 57, Marquette 56 SPORT SHORTS: Cincinnati Trades Post To Phillies for Haddix -r By The Associated Press COLORADO SPRINGS, Cola. (') -The Cincinnati Redlegs last night traded outfielder Wally Post to the Philadelphia Phillies for lefthanded pitcher Harvey Haddix. It marked the second trade in two days for the Redlegs, who have been talking swaps to all National League clubs in an effort to strengthen their pitching staff. At separate meetings yesterday, the American and National leagues voted to scrap the bonus rule and to establish a four-year player draft. The action ratified similar de- cisions of the minor leagues Thursday. The American loop voted to make the bonus rule retroactive. This would free nine so-called. bonus players in the junior circuit. But the National League voted to require the 12 bonus players in that league to finish out their sta- tus as bonus players. -Walter O'Malley, faced with mounting problems involving the transfer of his Dodgers to Los Angeles, said yesterday that it is "possible but not probable" that the team will return to Brooklyn in 1959. Was there a chance of the Dod- gers returning to Brooklyn? "No," O'Malley said. "There is no chance of the Dodgers return- ing to Brooklyn." Then he added quickly: "Let me put it this way. It is possible but not probable." FIRST METHODIST CHURCH and WESLEY FOUNDATION 120 S. State St. Merril P. Abbey, Erland J. Wangdahl, William B. Hutchison, Eugene A. Ransom, ministers.

It is true that the program will feature com- edy events and host many Olympic and National champions but to the freshmen of the NCAA champion Michigan swim squad, the Michi- gan Gala represents their first "bluebook." Since practice began in Septem- ber, all their energies have been devoted to this afternoon's events, and the chance to show Coach Gus Stager what they can do under the pressure of top-flight compe- tition. Up to this point swim men- tor Stager has been very impressed with their performance stating: "We've never had so many good swimmers going so fast so early in the season.,, Most of the freshmen are not new to the competition they'll face this afternoon. They include many high school state champions and All-American selections. Frank Legacki, an All-American selection from Pennsylvania, heads the freshmen prospects in the 100 yd. freestyle event. All-American Michigan high school champion Dave Gillanders is the best in the butterfly event. Mike Natelson, who was runner-up to Gillanders in the State meet, and Jack Pet- tinger, the Illinois Catholic high school champ, will make this the most exciting event on the pro- gram. Highly Versatile Harry Huffacett, another-Michi- gan high school champion, epitom- izes the versatility of the frephmen, figuring to be a strong contender in the individual medley. Bill Brandell, whom Coach Stager refers to as "the little boy with lots of guts" is entered in the gruelling 440. He too is a state champion. Also in this event is Tom Bucy, a trans- fer student who is relatively un- known in swimming circles. He is highly rated by Coach Stager and figures to play the role of dark horse. The diving duo of John Deining- er and Tee Francis,'the respective high school state champions from Ohio and Michigan, will display their talents on the three-meter board. The finals will be held at 8 p.m. tonight. Tickets for this show are 60c for students and $1 for non- students. In-Suspend! BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (R) - The Indiana University Faculty Athletic Committee . uthorized its representative, Professor John Mee, yesterday to ask the Big Ten to permit I.U. to lift Football Coach Phil Dickens' suspension. Athletic Director Frank Allen recommended the action in an attempt to recover Dickens' service before spring training. .:s -. ( N Death Ends 26-Year Career Of Indiana Swimming Coach BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (P) - Robert Royer, 55, head swimming coach since 1931 and veteran of Indiana University's coaching staff died in his home yesterday, He had been ill since an opera- tion last spring. Royer was chairman of the swimming rules committee of the NCAA and had two swimmers- Bill Woolsey and Dick Tanabe-on the 1956 U.S. Olympic team. A native of Akron, Ind., Royer was a swimming letterman at I.U., graduating in 1928. After teaching in his hometown high school, he returned to I.U. as swimming coach in 1931 and served continu- ously except for two seasons in administrative work. Royer will be succeeded by his assistant, Dr. James Counsilman. who recently came to I.U. from New York State Teachers College. Dr. Counsilman has been in charge of the squad during Royer's illness. Royer's 1956 team tied for third place in the Big Ten and his 1957 squad was fourth in the NCAA championships. When told of the news, Michigan swimming Coach Gus Stager ob- served: "Bob Royer did a great deal for swimming. All of us closely as- sociated to the sport will miss him. He built Indiana into a team that was challenging Ohio State and Michigan for Big Ten supremacy. This year he had a great freshman squad. He was just coming into his own."
