THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE _____________________________________________________________________________________ I I European Sports Tough For American Athletes NEW YORK-OP)-Let's see, now. We'll give them the soccer. That's not our game. If we could r:eplace it in the Olympics with American football we might have a chance. That would be asking too much, though, as we already have bas- ketball in there, and if every country insisted on the inclusion of some game they invented or in which they were particularly pro- ficient the competition would take the form of exhibitions and they might as well bring on the two- headed calf and stuffed whale. There are sports now included in the Olympic program, other than soccer, in which Ameri- cans have not taken any gold medals. Chiefly because' we don't go in very strong for the events. Cycling, for one. And fencing, and field hockey, and the penta- thlon, and Graeco-Roman wrest- ling. Our failure at cycling is easy to understand, as we are just vic- tims of prosperity. Americans ride in automobiles as soon as they are old enough to convince their dads they have been exposed to com- mon sense, and caught at least a mild case. We've been blanked down through the years in the 5000-meter and 10,000-meter runs, the 3,000-meter steeplechase, the 50,000 and 10,000 meter walks and the javelin throw. Three More In Olympic Tournament HELSINKI- (A)--Three more teams qualified for the Olympic Basketball Tournament yesterday -all of them getting in by the back door. Cuba, Hungary and Egypt sur- vived a pre-Olympic qualifying tourney to join Bulgaria, Canada, and the Philippines along with ten other countries previously selected for the 16-team competition. Egypt edged Italy in the best game produced by the qualifica- tion trials. Cuba defeated Belgium 71-63, and Hungary staggered past Greece, 47-44. The other competing countries who qualified on past perform- ances in international competition were the United States, Russia, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, France, Finland, Czechoslovakia and Uruguay. GRID PREVIEW OF '52: 'M' Football Future Uncertain (This is the first in a series of ar- ticles dealing with the coming 1952 football season.) By IVAN KAYE The Michigan football picture for 1952 is clouded with uncer- tainty. Where the Wolverines will wind up in the rugged Western Confer- ence is anybody's guess. Experts at this early point are not boom- ing 'Coach Bennie Oosterbaan's boys for Conference honors, but any football prognosticator worth his sodium chloride knows that Michigan teams can never be counted out of a championship race. * * * WITNESS THE rags-to-riches tale of the 1950 squad which clinched an undisputed title and a Rose Bowl bid by beating Ohio State in a snow storm at Colum- bus, while Northwestern was de- railing the front-running Illini at Evanston. Michigan jumped from third place to the championship in one afternoon. The Illinois squad could feel that California sunshine the previous week when they knock- ed Ohio State from the top of ajor League IStandings CLASSIFIEDS] _ the heap. Someone forgot to in- form Northwestern that they couldn't win however, and the lads from Evanston rose to thwart the Illinois title ambi- tions. While all this was trans- piriAg, the underdog Wolverines were running an Ohio squad which at mid-season was con- sidered the best in the land. The preceeding could only occur in the wild Western Conference, and shows the futility of trying to pick the winner before the gun ends the season's last game. MICHIGAN will face one of the toughest schedules in the nation this fall. The Wolverines open with Michigan State, a team rated by many as the best in the coun- try last season. Next comes a trip to Palo Alto, California for an in- tersectional tussle with the de- fending Pacific Coast Conference champion, Stanford University. Indiana will appear here in the season's first conference game. The following week will see the Maize and Blue oppose Northwestern in the lair of the Wildcats at Evanston. Four con- secutive home appearances with Minnesota, Illinois, Cornell and Purdue will precede the season finale against the Ohio State Buckeyes in Columbus. Michigan State and Stanford are top-drawer competition, and there are many easier ways to op- en a football campaign than games with these schools. Both Indiana and Northwestern are building and could cause trouble as the Wildcats did last year when they upset Michigan, 6-0. * * * MINNESOTA WILL be driven to frenzy pitch to regain posses- sion of the famed "Little Brown Jug" which has eluded them since 1942. The Illini are the defending conference champions and are de- finitely the team to beat in the coming race. The Cornell game will give the Wolverines a chance at revenge. The Big Red humbled -Michi- gan at Ithaca last November, 20-7. Purdue is being tagged, along with Wisconsin as a prime contender for the title. The Boilermakers have done a great deal of quiet building and are now ready to make it pay off. The curtain closer at Columbus will be another very tough game. Ohio is loaded, even with- out Vic Janowicz. The toughest part of this sche- dule is the beginning. The first two games, even though they are both with non-conference oppo- nents could very well tell the story of the whole 1952 season. ** * CONTRARY TO last season, freshmen will not be permitted to compete in Big Ten football. This means that the conference coach- es will have to work with just their present teams with no hope of uncovering promising freshman talent and moving it up to varsity squads, as was done last season. Wisconsin, for instance, used a freshman fullback named Al- lan Ameche who shattered the Big Ten rushing record in his first year. He is being touted for possible All-American hon- ors as a sophomore this fall. Although the experts would consider it an upset, it is entirely within the realm of possibility that Michigan will be conference champion this year. The Wolver- ines will have a big line once again, a more varied offense than last year, and greater depth in backfield talent. Add a little luck to these ingredients and there may be the recipe for a champion. LOST AND FOUND LOST--Gray Kitten in vicinity of East William and Thompson. Call No. on his tag or bring to 512 E.
