WW rtT i A-16 THE DETROIT DAILY PRESS Sunday, November 22, 1964 Nw fee 0 mWnm'mmn''m 10-0 DETUS The touchdown was set up when the Buckeyes' Bo Rein lost Stan Kemp's booming punt in the wind and sun at the Ohio 20. John Henderson recovered there for Michigan with 78 seconds left in the first half. Bob Timberlake, the brilliant Michigan quarterback who should win the Heisman Trophy, ran for three yards on the first play, then threw for the touchdown on the next. Timberlake retreated a bit to the right, looked at Henderson cutting for the sideline, then threw to halfback Jim Detwiler angling toward the goal posts at the goal line. Detwiler caught the ball between two Buckeye defenders and went in to score with 44 seconds left in the first half.

Timberlake, the Big Ten's leading scorer, kicked the extra point. Br BOB PILLE Daily Press Sports Writer COLUMBUS Michigan hammered down Ohio State, 10-0, to win the Big Ten championship and the Rose Bowl trip Saturday. It was the first title for the Wolverines since they accomplished the same parlay here 14 seasons ago in the long-remembered Snow Bowl game. This time it was the same refrigerated atmosphere withcut the blizzard in a game played in 20-degree temperatures and winds that gusted upward from the officially-measured 18 miles an hour. Michigan turned a first-half Ohio fumble into the game's only touchdown, then added a field goal on the second play of the fourth quarter.

The Wolverine defense did the rest, digging in to blank the Buckeyes and getting two key pass interceptions from Rick Volk when Ohio attempted to rally with -1 the Wolverines with his Volk, along with saving -i 1 A 'UMBmHii, III i I I 7 interceptions, put them within reach of Timberlake's clinching field goal when he shook free behind Bill Laskey's block and ran a punt from midfield to the Buckeye 24. CRASHES FOR 11 YARDS Fullback Mel Anthony crashed 11 yards to the 13 on the next play, but another three shots gained only three more. From there, at the seven, Timberlake stepped back to the 17 and kicked a 27-yard field goal from the holding hands of Frosty Evashevski with 68 seconds gone in the fourth period. That took care of the scoring from the chilled offenses as Michigan finished the regular season with an 8-1 record and took the Big Ten Championship at 6-1. The defeat left Ohio 7-2 for the year and 5-1 and second in the conference.

But even with their defeat all but sealed, the Buckeyes had some gasps left. Quarterback Don Unverferth quickly passed Ohio beyond midfield for the first time in the second half and endangered Michigan from the Wolverine 20. INTERCEPTS PASS FOR UM But from there, Unverferth threw with Bill Yearby harrassing his throw, and Volk picked it off at the eight. Kemp punted out to the 43, and Michigan held at the 37 with Yearby batting away Unverferth's fourth down pass. From there, Kemp kicked 49 yards against the wind to the Buckeye 15.

The five minutes that remained weren't long enough for Ohio. The Buckeyes had had their chances In the first half, and the Wolverine defense had turned them back four times across midfield. The first of Ohio's two deepest penetrations was stalled at the 28 on Bob Funk's wide and short field goal attempt. The miss put Michigan deep in the hole, however, when the ball hit in the end zone and then spun back out to the one. Kemp booted out to the 45, Rein returned to the 33, and after three plays the Buckeyes appeared ready to try again for a field goal from there.

rAKE MISSES BY 2 YARDS This time they faked, and Arnold Chonko passed eight yards to Tom Barrington, but the play fell two yards short of a first down. After that the afternoon belonged to Michigan. The defense and the temperature combined to mark the Ohio State offense with six fumbles, though the Wolverines were out-gained in total yardage, 180-160. Anthony gained 63 yards against the 65 yards bulled out by Ohio's more touted fullback, Will Sander. SECOND IN YARDAGE The Buckeyes slowed Timberlake on 23 yards running and 45 passing, and his 73-yard total left him with 1,381 yards on offense for the autumn.

The yardage left Timberlake second in one-season totals only to the 1,395 yards Tom Harmon gained in 1940. And right now, that is probably the least of Timber-lake's concerns. For Michigan and Timberlake, the senior quarterback, it was a rise from the depths after winning only six games over the last two seasons and finishing 10th and fifth in the Big Ten. BOB TIMBERLAKE.

"Get him: And Pump Elliott, a nice guy who finally won, disappeared from the press conference, lifted high by a dozen shouting, screaming, laughing, bruised, happy naked Wolverines who rushed him into the shower Saturday. Elliott gave a helpless smile but he enjoyed every minute of it. He's known a lot of minutes that weren't happy.

Michigan, champions of the west, hadn't been champions since 1950 and that was before the Elliott era. SOME LEAN YEARS There have been lean, weary years. And while almost everyone saluted Elliott by saying: He's the kind of coach you'd like your son to play for." He wasn't getting too many good sons. Now he has and no one deserves it more. But Elliott hasn't looked ahead any further than the next week, says he doesn't have any idea of who the Wolverines will face in the Rose Bowl "because we've had enough on our hands right here." They're looking ahead now, though.

Barclay Hall, a Michigan dormitory, had 100 longstem roses waiting in the locker back for a touchdown midway in the second period. A trio of successful passes by Ed Foley carried the ball to the U. of D. 35. Then followed a 15 yard penalty to the Detroit 20.

Six plays later, Ed Moran plunged across from the one. That made the score 9-7 at halftime. Foley's aerials paved the way for B.C. to take the lead in the third period. RUNS 27 YARDS He hit Jim Vehlan on a 22-yarder and Bill Cronin for 22 to put Boston College on the Detroit 29.

Three times the Spar- tans bobbled the ball and Illinois recovered each one. The Illini were guilty of only one fumble, but that one was grabbed by MSU.

Michigan State also put up a great goal line stand, halting Grabowski, who gained 185 of Illinois' 288 yards, on the one-foot line in the fourth quarter. The Spartans were able to pick up only 19 yards rush-) ing against the beefy Illinois line in the first half they gained only 66 for the afternoon. The loss left MSU with a Big Ten record and 4-5 overall. Illinois, last year's Western Conference football champion, wound up 4-3 in Big Ten play and 6-3 for the season.

LAUGH OR CRY Sophomore halfback Jim Detwiler didn't know whether to laugh or cry and he had a combination of both on his face. Ohioans, disgruntled over the Buckeyes' failure to score found some solace in the fact all the Michigan points were scored by Ohioans, anyway. Quarterback Bob Timberlake, who threw the touchdown pass to Toledoan Detwiler and also kicked the field goal and extra point, is from Frank lin, O. as a matter of fact, the whole Michigan backfield is from Ohio and defensive half DacK Kich Volk.

WANTED TO WIN "We wanted to win because a lot of our friends were here," Timberlake said, "but we just wanted to win, period not because some of us are from Ohio and going to school at Michigan." "It was the greatest thrill I've every had," Elliott said before he was whisked off to the shower. "The wind was the big factor you couldn't throw irnto it and it affected the whole game. "Under the conditions, it was our best game of the year and it certainly was the toughest, defensive game. "Stan Kemp did a great job punting for us," Elliott said.

And he did punting nine times for a 39.7 yard average, booming one that went 50 yards that was the one that John Henderson recovered leading to the touchdown and another, into the wind, that went 49 yards.

No. 1 ranked Notre Dame closed out its home season Saturday by rolling over Iowa, 28-0, to run the Irish record for the season to nine straight wins. The campaign ends next Saturday for the Irish at Southern California. Bill Wolski from Muskegon, shared honors with Quarterback John Huarte in pacing the Irish to their easy conquest. Wolski, who has been laid up with injuries in recent weeks, scored two of the Notre Dame scores.

PASS RULED GOOD The first Irish taMy came early in the second period. On a third-and-13 situation, a Huarte to Pat Sheridan pass was ruled complete because of interference on the Iowa 3. On the next play Wolski slammed over and Ken Ivan made the first of four Iowa, Later in the period, Huarte struck on a bomb to his pet receiver, Jack Snow, on a play which covered 66 yards. Snow caught the ball on the Iowa 40 and ran without being touched for the score. ADD 2 MORE After a scoreless third period, the Irish added two more counters in the fourth stanza.
