(JP) A great Illinois line rose up in the dying minutes here today to stop three drives inside the 20-yard line and stun a Michigan home-coming crowd of 85,938 fans by handingthe Wolverines a 13-to-9 defeat further to jumble the Big Nine football standings. Illinois, fighting from behind after Michigan had scored on Fullback BobxWiese's two-yard plunge early in the second period, tied the count on Halfback Paul Patterson's twisting 16-yard run three and one-half minutes later and went ahead to stay when Left End Sammy Zatkoff of Hamtramck, intercepted a Michigan pass in the third period and raced 52 yards for a touchdown. Illinois Holds Michigan, battling to keep alive its hope of sweeping to its first undisputed Western Conference championship since 1933, had the ball in Illinois territory for the entire last period but the Illini line was super, throwing back the Wolverines three times straight to take the ball on downs and halt drives that carried to the Illinois 17, then to the 5, and finally to the 8-yard line in the last eight minutes. After being stopped for downs on the Illinois 5 with just five minutes of playing time remaining, Michigan got a safety when Tackle Bruce Hilkene broke through to block Dwight Eddel-man's punt in the end zone. ly 2000 yards by land and by tire team rode to as sweet a triumph as Troy has won in three touchdowns on Neyland in regular-season play.

For the first time since they began their record of 24 straight victories, the West Pointers had to take to the air to score all the points of their 19-0 triumph over the Blue Devils. Two of Tucker's scoring pitches were to All-America Glenn Davis, the third to big Barney Poole, the end. Dazzling Performances Both Davis and his brilliant running mate, Felix (Doc) Blanchard, played almost all of the bruising contest, coming out only after Army had scored its third touchdown three minutes and 15 seconds before the game ended. Both contributed some dazzling runs to the Cadets' long touchdown jaunts, but neither, for the first time in three seasons, could fight his way across the enemy's goal line.

The Dons need feel no slight on that statement The World Series only recently ended, here, we are smack-dab in the middle of the football campaign, and now the ice hockey season bursts upon us this week. Time was when there used to be a decent spell between sports, but apparently those days are gone forever. Cliff Henderson and his late brother Phil have given us a smashing start toward major league hockey in this sector. When the new Pan-Pacific arena is constructed we'll have genuine big league hockey until- then the Beverly Blvd.

barons are offering 4he next best thing. Interest in the sport has grown by leaps and bounds in recent years and Promoter Cliff must think it's only started because now we're going to have games three nights weekly at the Pan.

One of the new clubs in the Pacific Coast League, Fresno, faces the Mon-archs Friday night and then the Wolves and Monar, is do it all over again Saturday evening. It's going to be a long season, too.

By the time the teams wind up their regular schedule on March 9, baseball will be with us again, and we'll still have the hockey play-offs. Vicious circle, isn't it? but covering the merry-go-round of sports is a lot better than digging ditches. Both Wolves and Monarchs are new talent. The Monarchs, coached by Big John Polich, have John's younger brother Vic as their goalie, for instance. Formerly with the Boston Olympics, Vic spent three years in the serv OLYMPIC ALUMNI Three other new players from Beantown are Fishy Du-mond, Ray Chaisson and Craig McKellan.

The first two, used to play for Boston College and graduated to the Olympics. McKellan, too, was with the Olympics and played here briefly with the now defunct Pasadena Panthers before donning his military uniform. Andy Barbee, ace defense man with the Oakland club last season, joins the Monarchs. Polich will shift Barbee to wing, as he was one of the top Oak even though playing behind the line.
