Not that the Bengals couldnt earn the "Great" adjective by applying corrective measures to a couple oi their shortcomings. A peat team should excel In every department of the game-shooting, passing, ball handling, controlling the ball off the backboards, defense and accuracy to convert free throws and it should do so consistently.

It has been the opinion of many around the state and of quite few locally that the Tigers are a one man team JACK FORESTIERI. The Snorter begs to disagree. Well venture Coach Ferigo's sentiments are to let them keep on thinking that and bis- Tigers will keep on winning games. Of course, Forestieri Is an All-State performer and the Tigers are built around him, but take either NEIL BENFORD, JACK SABADIN or VERNON ILLIG out of the game and the loss will be nearly as great as the loss of Forestieri. Perigo believes in usine the talents of each player to make a team.

Coach Ben Oosterbaan's Wolver ines were forced to stay at full strength Saturday night as Michi gan turned back Illinois, 49-48, while the Spartan regulars took it easy as M. S. C. trimmed Cincin nati, os-oo. Ben Van-Alstyne, Spartan coach, said he would start his regular five which accounted for 52 points against Cincinnati although it saw limited action.

That combination is the high-scoring pair, Robin Roberts and Sam Fortino, at the for-wards, Matt Mazza at center and Ollie White and Don Waldron at the guards. Wolverines expected to answer the opening whistle are forwards Bob Harrison and Dave Strack, Center Glenn Selbo and Guards John Mul-leney and Pete Elliott. Fans here are looking for the game to turn into an individual scoring battle between the Wolverines' leading scorer, Harrison, and State's top point makers, Roberts and Fortino. Roberts leads Spartan scorers with 63 points in six games while Fortino recently set a new M. C.

scoring mark by looping 26 points in a single game. The last big crowd to see State and Michigan play here was 9,200 which werel on hand to dedicate Jennison fieldhouse in 1941. State's largest home crowd 10,000 saw Long Island university defeat the Spartans in 1942. Western Michigan, which squeezed put a 51 to 49 decision from Central Michigan for its fifth win in seven starts, goes to Bowling Green (Ohio) university tonight and returns home to face Beloit Friday. Wings Score 3-2 Win Over Hawks; Face Tough Grind DETROIT, Jan.

7-(AP)-The Detroit Red Wings, cheered by their first victory in ten days, a 3 to 2 nose-out of the Chicago Black-hawks, were ready today for a tough four-day grind in which they play three games. They entertain Boston here Thursday in a renewal of their battle for third place in the National Hockey league. They travel to Toronto Saturday, and play host to Montreal Sunday. A crowd of 14,232 fans cheered the Wings last night as they grabbed a first-period three-goal advantage and" held on against a second-stanza rally by the Black-hawks. It was Detroit's third victory over the Blackhawks in six1 games this season and cost Chicago a chance to take over first place from idle Montreal.

Montreal's Canadiens defeated the Boston Bruins 4-2 in a Saturday contest to enable them to hold onto their first place tie with Chicago but the triumph proved costly to the Canucks and doubly disastrous to the Bruins. Montreal Goalie. Bill Durnan, the loop's leading goaltender, suffered bone fractures in his right 'hand in stopping a shot by Boston's Bobby Bauer and Boston's Bill Cowley, one of the leading centers in the game and the Bruins' high scorer, collided with Montreal's Elmer Lach and broke two bones ir his left hand. to agree with them.

Shrewd Sam opened hrs 1946 business year over the week-end by disposing of Catcher Walker Cooper to the New York Giants for $175,000 and Second Baseman Jimmy Brown to the Pitta- burgh Pirates for an estimated $30,000 to $40,000. Although he still has enough players left for two formidable major league entrfes, Breadon said he has no other deals pending at the moment. He indicated however, that Shortstop Marty Marion was the only one of the more than 60 Red Birds who definitely was not for sale. "Marion will be with us this year," the Cardinal owner said. He would not say as much for any of his other players.

The Cooper and Brown transactions were expected since it had been a loosely-kept secret for more than a month that the deals were in the making. Twenty-one pitchers with winning major league experience are" on the Cardinal roster and undoubtedly some of them will be parted with for fancy sums. Fourteen are on the active list, seven in service. Rumor had the Giants bidding for a left hander, probably Max Lanier or Harry "The Cat" Brecheen, along with Cooper, but neither Breadon nor the Giants made any mention of such a possibility. Providing former stars come up with service discharges, Breadon will certainly be ready to do a booming business in outfielders.

Johnny Hopp, Buster Adams, Red Schoendienst and Augie Bergamo are left over from the 1945 squad and Stan Musial, Enos Slaughter, Terry Moore, Harry Walker, Danny Litwhiler and a couple of red hot minor league prospects are in the armed forces. With the trading gates open, offers are expected to pile up in the Cardinal -office. The Red Birds will be watching how much they contribute to the strength of then-opponents but with so many players to be sold they probably will listen favorably to the rustle from any big bankrolls.

Bengals Will Resume Conference Play At Grand Haven Friday BY NORT BASER SOUTH BEND, Jan. 7 Benton Harbor's high school basketball team got some mighty ragged basketball out of its system at the John Adams gym here Saturday night, but it cost the Tigers a 40-36 licking at the hands of a not-too-impressive Washington Panther quintet. Only consolation to be derived from the loss was the fact that it didn't come in a Southwest conference fame and the possibility that the Tigers may now realize they are a far cry from being invincible. You can bet Coach Bill Perhro will spend plenty of hours this week getting his -charges back- in the -proper frame of mind to resume their winning ways at Grand Haven next Friday.

The defeat itself was bad enough, but the pathetic play of the Tigers all. departments of the game was the biggesi disappointment to the estimated 500 Benton Harbor fans who made the trip to see what they thought would be a slam-bang exhibition of basketball. They came away voicing the belief that even the winners weren't a good team and that if the Bengals had played up to" their usual standard they would have won by 15 or 20 points. Tigers Take Early Lead The contest was not without excitement, however. Never more than six points separated the clubs, and the lead changed hands five times.

The Tigers jumped into a six point lead in the opening minutes despite missing a score of hots, Neil Benford, Jack Sabadin and Jack, Forestieri providing the baskets in order. At the end of the slow first quarter the Tigers were inTrorit 8-4. From that point on the Hoosiers outscored the Bengals. They took the lead 14-13 just before the half, but an under-basket goal by Joe Dudas saved a 15-14 halftime lead lor the Tigers. Forestieri scored the first seven points for the Tigers In the third quarter to build up a 20-16 advantage before the Panthers began to fight back.

A side-court shot by Bob Fenimore put the home team in front 31-30 as the quarter ended. Hoosier Stall Effective A goal by Benford and free throw by Forestieri gave the Tigers a 33-31 edge as the last period opened, buJEverett-Austin's long torn knotterj It again. Heywood Alexander'! free throw then gave the Panthers' 4he lead they never Forestieri sank a free throw and tipped in a basket to bring the Tigers to within 36-38, but Alexander tallied for the Hoosiers, 40-36 margin and they managed to stall out the entire last minute of play. Although Fenimore and Center Bob Robertson paced the winners with and 10 points apiece, it was the alert floor game, of tiny Austin which chiefly responsible for the Panther victory. He was all over the court and accounted for nine points.

Scoring honors for the game went to Forestieri, however, as he made four goals and sank seven free throws for 15 points. But his passing, defensive play and backboard work were just as ragged as the rest of the team's. Only Don. Leach gave rise 'to Tiger hopes as he found his scoring eye for the first time this season with two neat baskets. The defeat spoiled a win string of four games and gave the Tigers a season record of five victories in seven starts.

Again they were not up to standard at the free throw line, sinking" only 12 out of 24 attempts.

Crisler, Michigan athletic director whose success with the Wolverines has been marked by exceptional line play, declared that he was "quite naturally sorry to see Munn leave." "We haven't given much thought about a replacement," Crisler added. "He will be hard to replace and my best wishes go with him." Munn also expressed regret at leaving Michigan, where he said he had spent "eight grand years." He expects to take over the Syracuse reins by March 1.

Detroit Tigers Plan Lakeland Spring Drill DETROIT, Jan. 7-(AP)-The world champion Detroit Tigers will open their first post-war spring training camp at Lakeland, Feb. 20, General Manager George M. Traut-man has announced, and have jammed a full 43-game exhibition schedule into 39 days starting March 7. With so many clubs returning to Florida training and clamoring for grapefruit league shots at the World Series champs, Trautman said the Tiger squad will be split into two teams to fill all the dates.

On seven separate occasions the two Tiger teams are booked for action on the same day. Altogether Detroit will play 16 exhibition games with American league rivals (Washington, Cleveland, New York and Boston), 18 with National league teams (Cincinnati, St. Louis and Boston) and nine with minor league outfits.

Cawood yesterday announced he would transfer to Western Michigan collage at Kalamazoo. The rangy southpaw pivoter, apparently discouraged with playing as a second stringer on Coach Ben Van Alystyne's squad, said he would enroll early this week at the Bronco school where he starred in 1943 as a Navy trainee. Cawood was chosen on a mythical Madison Square garden all-star team that year after a 22-point performance as Western Michigan whipped City College of New York.

Discussing his transfer to the Kalamazoo school, Cawood said he had no hard feelings against Van Alstyne but that he wanted to "go away to college." His home is in Lansing. Cawood attended M. S. C. in 1941 but did not report for classes at the college this fall because of a late discharge from the Navy.

Van Alstyne said he was sorry to see Cawood leave the squad, that the tall left-hander "was potentially a good player" and that a place in the M. S. C. lineup probably would have been found for him "after he got in shape."

That became definite as the All-America conference, at first considered lightly but of late snatching the pro grid spotlight, concluded a meeting of owners and coaches last night. The new league, with plenty of players under contract, with stadiums in which to play, and with plenty of cash on the line to bid with its rival for talent, awaited only completion of a 1946 schedule and autumn-to start play. Drawing of a 1946 schedule was left to Commissioner James (Sleepy Jim) Crowley, subject to approval by franchise owners.

Yesterday's final meeting was devoted mainly to drafting of players. At the same time, the league members voted to divide the eight-team circuit into East and West divisions instead of North, and South as was originally planned. East, teams will be New York, Brooklyn, Buffalo. N. and Miami, Fla.

Cleveland, Chicago, San Francisco and Los Angeles will be in the western division. The clubs will play 14-game schedules, meeting each other twice on a home and home basis. A league, champion will be determined by a post-season playoff game between Eastern and Western division champions. Tony Morablto. owner of the San Francisco franchise, announced he had signed Norman Standlee, Chicago Bears chattel and former Stanford Rose Bowl hero.

Standlee recently returned from India, where he had been a captain in the Army engineers. He played one season with the Bears in 1941. The league named Ray T. Miller, ex-mayor of Cleveland and brother of Don Miller, one of Notre Dame's "Four Horsemen" of two decades ago, as attorney to the executive committee.

There's been but one of nine con ference garnes in which the Issue definitely was settled before ten minutes of the econd half had ticked away, and last Saturday night two games were decided by a free throw. All the teams have been fortified by returning veterans or star freshman performers, and even defending champion.

Iowa, with last year's team intact, apparently won't be able to find any soft pickings in the league. The lone team to lose a circuit game by a big score is the University of Chicago. Returning to competition after a layoff of a year, the Maroons dropped a 59-34 decision to Indiana in their conference debut last Saturday. Michigan defeated Illinois, 49 to 48, when Glen Sejbo dropped in a free throw in the last 15 seconds, and Minnesota beat Wisconsin, 46 to 45, on Tony Jaros' gift shot in the final minute. Ohio State Beats Purdue In the only other conference tilt, Ohio State, leading the pack with three victories, took an early lead from Purdue and shook off repeated threats to win 57-50.
