Big Rog Wiley Leads Webfoots
In Willamette Game Scrimmage
If John Warren’s boys keep on
pouring in the points as they did
yesterday afternoon, the Webfoot
eagers should be able to blast Wil
lamette tomorrow night by a com
fortable margin. The Bearcats
haven’t got anyone big enough or
good enough to stop Roger Wiley,
the big southpaw center.
In the first scrimmage yester
day afternoon, Wiley was the key
man in the 35-29 victory for the
“Skins.” The “shirts,” led by Jim
Bocchi who tallied 12 points during
the game, jumped into an early
lead, only to have Wiley pace the
“Skins" to a 1G-16 tie.
Paul Sowers bucketed a long
shot, and the winners were never
headed from there on out. Wiley
was hot on the backboards, and
rang in 11 points in the half he
played. Kenny Seeborg, John Nee

in four points for second-high hon
ors on the winners. Bocchi’s 12

early lead, and again failing to hold

In Final AP Grid Listings
NEW YORK, Nov. 30— (AP)— Michigan is the mythical

The votes of 387 sports writers and radio commentators gave
the unbeaten, untied Wolverines a 123-point margin over run
nerup Notre Dame, which will attempt to complete its second
straight perfect season at USC’s expense Saturday. In the
matter of first place ballots, Michigan had a substantial 192-97.
margin. In points it was 3,448 to
3,325.
Notre Dame, which won the reg
ular season poll last season, led only
once this year during the eight
week run of voting. North Calo
lina, which finished third, also set
the pace early in the season. Mich
igan was no. 1 six times, the last
four weeks in succession.
Well over 1,000 points back of
Notre Dame came the once-tied
North Carolina Tar Heels who re
ceived 31 firsts. California, the host
team in the Rose Bowl on New
Year’s Day, grabbed fourth place
with an even 2,000 points. North
Carolina had 2,281.
Oklahoma, which closed the sea
son with a rush to move into the
Sugar Bowl as North Carolina’s
foe, was ranked fifth with 30 firsts
and 1,906 points.
Despite its surprising 21-21 clos
ing tie with Navy, the unbeaten
Army Cadets drew enough support
to take sixth place. Then came
Northwestern which will represent
the Western Conference in the Rose
Bowl.
Georgia was a distant eighth,
some 550 points behind Northwest
ern, with Oregon and Southern
Methodist. The Cotton Bowl con

round out the first ten.
All of the first 10 teams, with the

Bowl games on January 1.
Notre Dame will try for its 22nd
straight victory and its 28th with
