TAMPA MORNING TRIBUNE 11 Tuesday, January 2, 1951 Here Is Half time Show, Some Of Notables At Gigar Bowl Game Tampa Plays Louisville Five Tonight Tampa's sharpshooting Spartans will attempt to stop the high scoring Louisville Cardinals basketball team here tonight when the teams meet in an intersectional contest at Fort Hesterly at 8 o'clock. The Spartans, winners of two Michigan Rallies to Win, 14 to 6 By HAL WOOD PASADENA, Jan. 1 (U.R) Coming back with a dramatic aerial attack In the waning minutes, the straight home contests, will be meeting one of the top cage teams in the country in the Louisville club. Tampa has won over Yale and Dartmouth in home games after dropping five contests on a recent Northern road trip. One of the games waa to Louisville by an 87 to 74 margin.

The tall cardinals have won. eight "Michigan Wolverines gave the Big Ten Its fifth consecutive Rose Bowl victory today with a 14 to 6 triumph over California. Trailing 6-0 with only five minutes to play, the Wolverines suddenly got a great passing performance from their ace halfback, Chuck Ortmann. He piloted the team down the field on a quick 80-yard march that paid off with a touchdown with time running out. Then End Harry Allis calmly booted the ball over the crossbar for the point that spelled victory for Michigan.

A second anti-climactic touchdown that California handed Michigan in the last two minutes was purely a donation. California had outplayed Michigan games and lost one so far this season. Included in their list of victims are Kentucky Wesleyan, Georgetown, Mis sissippi State, Seton Hall, Georgia Tech, William and Mary, Tennessee and Tampa. Their only loss was a 79-69 defeat at the hands of Bob Lochmueller, 6-5 forward, is the Cardinals' top scorer with. 122 points.

Dick Robinson, 6-4 center, is second with 93 points. Tampa played good ball against Louisville in the first meeting but the Cards superior height, in which they controlled both backboards, proved to be the difference in the contest. Coach Sam Bailey is expected to mi, start his regular lineup of Bill Mullen and Mac Williams, forwards, Holland Aplin, center, George Monti and Harry Bryan, guards, against the visitors. so badly in the first half, when the Bears ran up a 6-0 lead, that the 100,000 spectators in the sun-baked bowl were convinced the Big Ten domination of the New Year's Day contest at last had been broken. Bean Commanded Game The Bears, getting a sparkling ground game from Pete Schabarum, Jim Monachino and Johnny Olszewski, and a surprising aerial attack from Quarterback Jim Marinos, had command of the ball 90 per cent of the time during the first two quarters.

But they failed to capitalize on their scoring opportunities and that told the story. They might easily have held a three touchdown lead at the Intermission. The victory was a deserved one for the undermanned Wolverines nevertheless. They were supposed to be worn out in the second half and to fall easy prey to the well-balanced Bears. But It turned out to be just the opposite.

California made 10 first downs to two for Michigan in the first half. But in the second half, the Bears got only one first down, and Michigan ripped through the Bear defense for IS. Vsi'rr lp ur': Coach Bernard Hickmans starting lineup was not known. Coach Van Galder Is Happy Over Cigar Bowl Win (Continued from Page 13) again and go above the 50 point mark. The good-natured coach had the fans chuckling with his antics at the bench.

This was the big game he wanted and if he could have put on a uniform and slipped into the contest, he would have done so. The La Crosse football squad picked up Van Galder and Assistant Coach Bill Vickory right after the final whistle and started to carry them off the field. Long after the club went to the dressing room, the winning coach, still in his shirt sleeves, stood around talking with fans from up Wisconsin way. "Tell the Tampa fans that we think it is wonderful to visit Florida. We hope to come back.

I want to thank everyone for the fine treatment we have received since we reached Tam pa," he concluded. Valpam Wins Handicap At Tropical Park MIAMI, Jan. 1. (Pi Taking the lead from the start. William O.
