Syracuse Orange Depend On Balanced Grid Squad (This U lh fourth of 10 dispatches on the football teams playing in the post season bowl games.) Br ANDY PURCELL Syracuse, N. Y. -CPD- The last time Syracuse played in a bowl game, a power runner named Jim Brown put on a upberb one-man show, scor ing 21 points in a 28-27 losing cause against Texas Christian. It was generally conceded the Syracuse team which played in the Cotton Bowl in 1957 was pretty much a one man array. Not so the Syracuse Orangemen who meet mighty Oklahoma Jan. 1 in the Or ange Bowl at Miami. There is no one in sight with near the all-around tal ent of big Jim Brown, now the scourge of the National Football league. The present Syracuse team depends in stead on a balanced squad. But an unheralded sopho more from the Cotton Bowl club should play a vital at tack. He is Chuck Zimmer man, senior quarterback and captain of the Orange. Plays Consistent Ball Zimmerman, the only reg ular from the '56 dub, will have a totally different role Jan. 1, 1959, than he did three years ago when he threw but three passes one for a touchdown and the rest of the time looked for Brown. While not a spectacular per former, Zimmerman played consistently good football this season and earned a berth on the United Press International All-East team. Coach Ben Schwa rtzwalder says: "Zimmerman is the guy who makes us tick. For most of the season he was the most under rated quarterback in the East, probably because he fits so well into our attack you hardly know he's there." Zimmerman was "there" long enough to post a .605 passing completion mark, a school record. He hit on 46 of 76 attempts, good for 645 yards and seven touchdowns. He carried for nine others to lead the team in scoring. The Syracuse native, an honor student in accounting, threw 65 passes before he had one intercepted. Zimmerman had ample backfield help from Gerhard Schwedes a German-born junior who first saw a foot ball when he was 10 years old. That was one year before his family moved to White- house, N.J. Tom Stephens, a senior from Mohawk, N. Y., and sophomores Art Baker, Ed Keiffer and Mark Weber showed well during the sea' son. Syracuse, in building its 8-1 regular-season mark, set a school record by averaging 29.3 points per game. The Orange won four games by lopsided shutouts, took squeakers from Perm State, Pittsburgh and West Virginia, beat Boston College by a touchdown and lost 14-13 to Holy Cross. In the five close ball games, Syracuse suffered from faulty pass defense. .throughout the season, Syracuse effectively used the punt as an offensive weapon. Two sophomores, Ed Keiffer and Tom Gilburg, averaged over 40 yards per try on 37 punts. Keiffer 40.9 and Gil burg 39.4 finished 1-2 in the east in that department.

The Redmen, whose of fense was not as deceptive as Flagstaff s tricky "fly-T" for mation, scored in the first, third and fourth periods to claim the NAIA champion ship. Led by Quarterback Ted Sorich, the Lumberjacks scored their touchdowns in the third and fourth periods, but were never able to match the crushing offense of the Oklahomans. Northeast Oklahoma State marched 94 yards to score the first time they got the ball. Allen was aided by Half back Dan Smith a fleet-foot ed 175-pounder who swept the ends and by Fullback Deloyd Reed who ripped huge holes in the middle of Arizona State's line. Fly-T Used Sorich .engineering the tricky "fly-T" formation in which the ends pass by for hand-offs just like halfbacks, passed to End Al Rex for the Lumberjacks' second touch down. He helped set up the first, which was scored by Halfback Ron Cote on a 29 yard end run. The Redmen took Arizona State's first punt of the game and drove 94 yards in 17 plays for the score, with Halfbacks Smith and Bob Jackson, Reed and Allen mixing the running plays. The drive, sparked by Jack son s 17-yard run, ended when Allen sneaked over from the one. But Quarterback Frank Phelps' kick was wide.

With Sor ich leading the way, they marched 67 yards in nine plays, only to bog down on the Oklahomans' she. The second came later in the second period when Phelps got a bad pass from center on fourth down and was tackled by the Lumber jacks on his own 17. But Sor ich failed on two pass plays and the ball went over to the Redmen on the 11. Northeast Oklahoma took a short Sorich kick and drove 38 yards early in the third period, with Allen passing to Jackson in the end zone. Phelps' kick was good.

The Blues were the first and second stringers, the Whjtes were the third and fourth teams. Quarterback Joe Kapp scored twice, both times on keeper plays inside tackle, from 22 and 17 yards out. Coach Pete Elliott said af terwards his team's offense was "much better than de fense. "We're just beginning to really develop," Elliott said. He said fumbles were causing some trouble, and we'll have to stop that." The squad will practice Monday morning. A 46-man team will make the trip to Pasadena. So far no' injuries have cropped up in practice. Pasadena, Calif.-OIPD - The University of Iowa football team scrimmaged Saturday the second day in a row as Coach Forest Evashevski step ped up drills for the Hawk- eyes New Year's Rose Bowl battle with California. The first three teams scrim maged both on offense and defense, with the fourth squad the "scout team" provid ing the opposition. Iowa ap peared particularly sharp on the ground and all-American Quarterback Duncan struck accurately with his passes. On defense the first three clubs held the "scout -team," with Tom Moore impersonat ing Cal's star Joe Kapp, to negligible gains. On offense, in addition to Duncan's pin point passing, Fullback John Nocera and Halfback Bob Jeter each ripped off several long gains. Nocera ran over tackle for nearly 15 yards for his longest gain, while Jeter swept end for more than 15 yards for his longest gain.

Gaelic Gold paid $4.80 and $3.00, and Nice Guy, another three-year old and winner of the California derby last week, paid $2.80. "My colt ran a perfect race," said Maese. . "I didn't get into any trouble. I wasn't able to save any ground and had to circle horses to the turn at the stretch. I had to ride him all out to get him to the wire in front." Heavy Booing Heard When the results of the photo finish were posted on the tote board, there was hea vy booing from the crowd of 13,978, many of whom appar ently had thought Gaelic Gold the winner.
