There were two seconds left in the game when Singer scored from two yards out and a pass from Singer to Bill Runkle accounted for the extra points. The Michigan Hawks play one for charity at Buchanan Saturday night and coach Jim Judd's crew could be one of the main benefactors. The Hawks will host the Twin City Trojans of Bloomington-Normal, 111., a team that plays in the same league as Joliet, winners of two pre-season exhibition games against the Hawks.

But both phases of the' game got a boost this week when the Hawks welcomed the return of Mitch Pruiett to their roster and added another strong running back in George Gut-yanics.

Pruiett, who just completed a tour of military duty, played both offense and defense for the Hawks last season. He was one of the top linebackers in the league and carried 51 times for 163 yards on offense. He scored two touchdowns and kicked 13 extra points. Gulyanics, whose father played for the Chicago Bears in the late 1940's, played his college ball at Northern Michigan, and is now on Judd's physical education staff at Southwestern Michigan College in Dowagiac. With the exception of quarter- 1 1 core.

Tiger JVjS Popke Leads BH Frosh To Victory But NotiEnough mpire Agreement On Playoffs Near back Bill Feraco, the Hawks have no healthy backs. Both Francis Brown and Jim Rutter are sidelined with injuries and a sore instep makes it tough for Willie Sam Warren to run. "Both Mitch and George will see action as running backs and both will probably play some defense," said Judd. '-This game should give us a chance to move a few people around on defense and give some other people a rest." The Trojans have a 1-6 record in what Judd calls a "tougheP league than ours." The defending Midwest Professional League champs were beaten 43-6 last weekend at St. Joseph, Missouri.

While the Hawks take the weekend off from league play, the battle for positions for the league's playoff goes on with Detroit at Lackawanna and Pontiac at Wyoming. The top four teams in the league will take part in the playoffs. The No. 1 team will host the No. 3 team and No.

2 will host No. 4 on Oct." 17. The winners will then meet in the championship contest on Oct. 31 with the site to be determined by the flip of a coin. Lansing has almost a lock on the top spot while the Hawks cn still overtake Pontiac for second place.

To finish lower than third, the Hawks would have to lose their two remaining games to Pontiac and Lackawanna while the Lancers would have to win their remaining three against Detroit, Wyoming and the Hawks. This would result in a tie for third between the Hawks and two-point conversion on a run Benton Harbor junior tvar by standout Calvin Wilson, but sity football team finally dis it was erased by a cupping xall covered how to cross met goal line, but the Tiger Cubs still haven't found out how to win a CHICAGO (AP) Representatives of the Major League Um assessed against Neal Lacy and the Tiger Cubs failed in a pass attempt from the 18-yard line. game. pires Association and their attorney, John Reynolds, met Thursday night in, a Chicago ho Wilson scored two touchdowns Coach Herb Quade's' lads, outscored 86-0 in their first two on runs of five and eight yards and also plowed over for the outings of the season, pasted three touchdowns on the score Hoople Fattens Up On Gridiron Feast Tigers' only conversion.

Bowling Green This most unusual sojourn was launched by a cryptic note from our midwest correspondent, a Columbus (Ohio) clairvoyant, named W. W. (Woody) Haze, who suggested that the Hoople System might benefit from pursuing the old military adage that an army marches on its stomach. Hak-kaff Inspired by this thought, my staff immediately set forth to sample the culinary offerings of our country's leading educational institutions. My personal tour begSh at an agricultural outpost in East Lansing, Michigan, where my old friend Hugh Duffy Daugher-ty treated me to some of Irish wit and spirits while he expressed his fear that Notre Dame would get fat at his Spartans' expense on Saturday.

I pondered this thought while 1 polished off a modest repast of charcoal broiled turkey and all the trimmings, then jetted to the Texas ranch of Darrell Royal for an ox roast that proved the Longhorns were real winners! Harr-ummph! From there it was north to Nebraska to lend my ears to Bob Devaney while his Corn-husker chefs lent a few ears to the Hoople digestive system. Momentarily gated, we hustled south to Baton Rouge for some creole gumbo with Charlie Mc-Lendon, who assured us there was nothing fishy about his team's predicted victory. We bypassed Ohio State, since we understand the Buckeyes are still eating crow for last year's loss to Michigan, and hustled homeward with our doggie bags (for the Yale Bulldogs, of course) on an Air France champagne flight. Urrrrpppp! Thus fortified, we polished off the week's forecasts over apple pie and whipped cream and submit them as a mere appetizer of the football feasts that lie ahead! Ummm-kumph! On with the forecast!
