On No. 4 McNeil got In the clear, took the ball over his shoulder on the six-yard line and scampered over. In victory the Spartans presented a two-man backfield show in Kieppe and Morgan Gingrnss, veteran fullback. State had a net gain of 174 yards from scrimmage, which happened to be the net distance the pair gained.

Kieppe reeled off 100 yards in 11 tries while Gingrass accounted for the balance in 18 thrusts at the Boilermaker line. There was little to choose be-Turn to Page 5, Column 7 OHIO STA1K HI!

KolilllMill, BY JOHN N. SABO irft Preg Staff Writer NOTRE DAME, Nov. 14 Michigan's wild Wolverines, play-jn(r 60 minutes of football at its furious best, commemorated Notre Pame's centennial anniversary today and wnat a commemoration it was! In an offensive barrage productive of eight touchdowns, Michigan pounded through Notre Dame's 202-pound line for five touchdowns and a 32-20 victory which will go down In football history as one of the greatest scoring exhibitions of all time. This was no defensive scrap. It was a wild-running, wide-open game which saw Notre Dame take the lead twice only to have an offensively-superior Michigan team bounce back hard and often.

It was a game, which saw Tom Kuzma roar through for two touchdowns and Don Robinson, George Ceithaml and Paul White rip across for one tach. Notre Dame tried desperately to stem this avalanche. The Irish punctured the. Michigan defenses for touchdowns, once by End Bob Dove and tw ice hy Cr'elgliton Miller. But the Irish had nothing to offset a great Michigan surge In the third period which saw the Wolverines turn a 14-13 Notre Dome halftime lead Into a 32-14 Michigan margin within 15 minutes.

To get a true perspective of what Michigan did today, one needs enly look at the records. Not In 36 years since Army's 38-10 victory over Notre Dame in 1916 has any team scored as many points against Notre Dame as Michigan did today. 67200 FANS ON HANI) When this furious battle before 67,200 fans had subsided, there remained little doubt as to which was the superior team. Today it was Michigan by everything the final score would indicate. The Michigan line, outweighed 10 poumls to a man and with five of the Wolverine forwards playing the full 60 minutes, clearly out-charged the Irish in the third and fourth periods, when this game was decided.

The Michigan backs, with Kuzma, Robinson, White and Huh Wieae taking turns at lacerating the Irish forwards, out-rushed the Notre Dame hacks 319 yards to 170. The first downs were to 11 and Michigan gained most of them with an attack which refused to take cognizance of the Irish edge in weight. So Michigan goes Into its last two Big Ten games against Ohio State and Iowa with every chance to win or tie for the Conference championship. The Wolverine team of today certainly looked like a squad which had the offensive weapons necessary to a championship club. WOLVKRIXES RALLY TWICE In this spectacular victory Michigan had no picnic.

The Wolverines needed every bit of their offensive astuteness and power to batter down a Notre Dame team which was primed to make this its best effort. Any team which has to come from behind twice to score a victory is pulling no punches. To show the wild type of game lliis was, Notre Dame not only led twice hut It scored six minutes after hostilities opened.

Special to Ihe Free Press NOTRE DAME, Nov. 14-The man who accorded Michigan's football team the highest praise today was the man who suffered the biggest defeat Coach Frank Leahy of Notre Dame. After the Wolverines had beaten the Irish, 32 to 20, Leahy did not spare the verbal bouquets in giving credit.

"That Michigan line was great on defense," he said, "but it was on offense that it was the best. Never have I seen a line charge so hard and fast as that Michigan line did with almost no substitutions." Possibly the greatest praise was showered upon Michigan's left tackle, Al Wistert.

Coach Fritz Crisler didn't wait until the Michigan team went to Notre Dame Stadium Saturday to give the Wolverines his special pep talk. Crisler had a meeting of his players in their Elkhart hotel before the squad left for the stadium. Only the players were permitted to listen to Prof. Fritz' exhortations.
