MICHIGAN JUMPS TO

Michigan’s “champions of

first national (title since 1948,
moved into the No. 1 spot this

football poll, overhauling Ma

[ fell to the runnerup role.
j Michigan, missing from the
j final top 10 since finishing
• ninth in 1945, proved its come
back as a national power by
humiliating the proud Black
Knights of Army 26-2 last Sat
urday. It was the third game
of the season for the unbeaten
Wolverines and it convinced
the nation’s experts.
The Wolverines were accord
ed totp billing by a healthy
200-point margin over. Mary

record by whipping Wake For

than the previously unstopped
Army machine 28-7.

Christian took a step up from

{Newspaper tax
' papers should fbe taxed.
Counsel for the defense said
omission of the mention of news
papers follows a sixty year old
pattern in Alaska tax laws
which exempted newspapers
from paying taxes on their
gross income.
The territory holds that unless
a [business is expressly exempt
ed in the wording of the tax
law it is subject to the tax. The
territory aijgued that newspap
ers are included in the clause
“other business” in the law.
Judge iHodge said he was “not
impressed" with the newspap
ers argument on the question
of legislative intent.
“But I do feel there is a grave
constitutional question involv
ed here, ' he said, after hear
ing argumnts by the defendant
that the tax law consitiituted a
restraint of the constutiaional
ly guaranteed privileges to pub
lish newspapers.
Counsel for the defendant
cited several Supreme Court
cases which supported the ar
gument that business taxes on
newspapers are in effect regu
latory measures on publishing
privilege.

NEW YORK (JP) The Old Pro
fessor was trying to juggle one
orange, Ibut in his blurry con
dition he obviously thought it
was half a dozen. Every time j
he tossed it up it would fall to 1
the floor with a squishy sound ;
until he turned to his Monday |
morning class olf football coach
es in some exasperation.
Old Professor — Can’t seem
to get the hang of this danlged
trick. Fumble,, fumble. You
should understand, Col. Blaik.
Earl (Blaik, Army — Indeed
I do, professor, our boys have
n’t played together much as a
unit. That’s probably why we
fumbled (nine times). Michigan
had us two to one — no, make
it three to one — in backs, but
our line fought them all after
noon. Michigan was fired up
for this game.
Bennie Oosterbaaun, Michi
gan — I didn’t expect the score
to get that (big. We were even
when we started. Army never
let tup.
Old Professor — Mr. Jordan,
when worse comes to worst,
| what is Worst?
I Lloyd Jordan, Harvard —
The worst was our tackling,
'professor. Cornell had too much
speed going to the outside for
us. When we had the (ball they
defended us very good.
Lefty Jaimes. Cornell — It
was the best (ball game Billy
de Graaf eper called for us. He
even fooled me two or three
time. I didn’t know where the
ball was.
Old Professor — Ignorance
was bliss in that case, I take it
Mr. Gustafson, quit throwing
out your chest. You’ll break a
riib.
Andy Gustafson, Miami —
Can’t heljp it, professor, I’m
proud (that we stood in there
and played it out, toe to toe,:
with a fine Notre Dame team.
Miami never quit but our mis
takes hurt us. It was a typical
l Notre Dame team, running
hard, hitting hard and coming
through in the clutch with those
fourth down scores.
Terry Brennan, Notre Dame
— I was plenty worried when
Miami blocked that kick right
after the game started, but my
boys were up to the situation.
Our cluib fought its heart out
and won a great victory. Paul
Hornung threw the ball much
better.
Old Professor — Mr. Cher
berg, why are you sputtering
so?
John Cherberg, Washington
— Cant help it, professor. My
team, it was great — it was
great all-around team play at
best. My boys said they would
do it and they did. Our line
play — magnificent — arid
you couldn’t stop our ends. De
spite rain at the start, that
field was in good shape.
Jesse Hill, USC — Both
teams played good ball, but I
think our tackling was a bit
below usual. I wouldn’t com
plain about ithe field. It was
wet for both sides. I think our
fast backs would have done
better on a dry field, but the
wet ball handicapped Washing
ton passing, too. Washington is
big and aggressive and will give
trouble to all of ’em.
