W Super charged Illinois Saturday unveiled a. rampaging unknown, sophomore halfback Bob Mitchell. who streaked 64 yards for a back-break lug touchdown and led the III in! to a smaaning 25-6 upset of uiv beaten Michigan, the nation's No 3 team. Mitchell, a 20-year-old Negro speedster from Hot Springs, Ark., hit vaunted Michigan like a ton of bricks as he entered the game In the third quarter and then streaked to 173 yards In 10 carries. Mitchell, infrequently used by Illinois earlier, stepped Into the game to launch the mini to a 12-6 lead which came on the old fake field goal strategy for a touchdown on a 24-yard screen pass midway in ine tnird period. Mitchell got his big chance when the No. 1 left halfbaok, Harry Jef ferson, suffered a rib Injury early In the third period. Until he was sidelined, Jefferson had been the chief lllini threat with 14 carries for 60 yards. Mitchell's explosive performance contributed heavily to the surpris ing total of 338 yards rushing by Illinois compared with only 173 for heralded Michigan. Michigan had a sad passing attack, despite the futile efforts of end Ron Kramer, completing only 3 of 21 tosses for only 17 yards. The first defeat of the season for Michigan In seven starts dealt a serious blow to the Wolverines' Rose Bowl hopes and dropped them to second behind unbeaten Ohio State In the Big Ten race. Illinois followed a tradition of banding bitter defeats to Michigan dating back to Red Grange.

It was better than any of our victories. That was the best any team has ever played for me. "We could have beaten most teams but Miami was great." Luck and desperate defensive play enabled Miami to salvage its close victory after Jock Losch, a sprinter on the Hurricane track team, had delighted 42,240 home coming fans by racing 73 and 44 yards to touchdowns in the first half. It looked then as If the Hurri canes could run the score as hlRh as they pleased but Borton Col lege suddenly took charRe behind its sharp-shootlng quarterback, Bill Dnnlan. Three times the Eagles drove to first downs inside the Miami 10. Once, they were thrown back by (he Miami line after marching to n first down at the 4 On two other occasions, their hopes wore blasted when Larry Plenty and Ed Desllva fumbled on first clown plays at the six and the fie.

Ted Williams definitely will be back with the Boston Red Sox in 1956. Two things bothered baseball's greatest hitter last season. The first was a divorce settlement with his wife, Doris. The second was a question embedded deep In his mind as to whether he could come back once again and bit major league pitching in the manner to which he was accustomed.
