Stanford's plunging fullback. Bill Tarr,. was a close contender for the first team. But aside from one guard and one tackle position, Hie vote was elearly defined. ' And in the Instance of Palmer at center, Stewart at one end, and the four backs selected, the bal loting was decisive. At tackle, Fred Robinson, Wash ington's 230-pounder, merited close attention from the experts, although shv of the support given to the 235:pound Witte, whose Ore gon State mates edged out Wash ington, 13-7. At guard, the race was between Jim Brown, somewhat unheralded before the season: Trojan Orlando Ferrante, and UCLA's Hardimnn Cureton, a well publicized lineman before and early in the campaign. Brown and Ferrante proved the more consistent and Cureton, 'n the opinion of many observers, was less so over the Bruins' 10 game schedule. . Seven seniors and four Juniors are represented on the first team, the latter being Brodie, Arnett. Witte and Jim Brown.

' , -, He beat his critics to the punch by saying, "We proved we could lose gracefully, but I guess we overdid it." It was his first season as head coach. He had taken over a foot ball dynasty, only to see It crumble in his hands. When the dust settled, he picked up the useable pieces', added some promising but untested mater-al and built hts own football power house. He's the United Press Coach of the Week. Hugh Duffy i Daughe.--ty of Michigan State, whose lean ended its 1955 season last Satur day with an 8-1 record and a sum mons to the Rose Bowl, beating Marquette 33-0. It was one of finest comebacks ever staged in college football. Daugherty gives the credit to his coaching staff and his players. "The coaches were a year older and a year wiser," he said. "As for the players, the seniors worked like eager sophomores, and , (he sophomores came through like vet erans." BOWL CLASH v ... Daugherty declined to predict the outcome of Michigan State's Rose Bow) clash with UCLA.i "But we'll do our best to carry on the great record of Big Ten teams in past years," he said. The record includes a Michigan State victory over UCLA In 1953 when Biggie Munn was neaa coach. What's the outlook for Michigan State next year?, Will it suffer an other relapse similar to the 1954 disaster which came on the heels of a Rose Bowl triumph? "I feel we should have a fairly good team," Daugherty said. "We'll miss one of the greatest bunch of seniors I've ever seen. but we'll have a good number of Juniors and sophomores returning. And we ve got a representative freshman team this season." Senior quarterback Earl Morrall brilliant ball-handler, signal-caller and most successful passer in Michigan State history with a ca reer record of 2.004 yards gained. will be among the missing. But Daugherty has three promising successors for him. HAILED Daugherty is being hailed on the Michigan State campus as "the comeback coach of the year." Last week, a few hours before the victory over Marquette, he was given a $l,000-a-year raise. Happy alumni flooded him with congratu lations. More than 2. COO students turned out to cheer him at rally. "I don't know why you're cheer ing me," he said. ."I didn't play a minute all season. This was a team that made the coaches." 1 He kidded himself and a group of alumni recently about the" sud den change in Michigan 8tate's football fortunes. He started to refer to the 1955 Spartans as "my team" but quick. ly corrected himself. "I forgo; he explained, "this team belongs to you. Last year's squad was my team."

Cherberg Center Of Revolt SEATTLE (UP) Two groups of 1955 football letter winners at the University, of Washington have made formal protests, against the coaching regime of Johnny Cher berg, it was learned today. Harvey Casslll the school's ath letic director, said he had met with two groups of players but declined to name them and would not reveal who their spokesmen were. I have no conclusive Idea re garding this situation at this time" Casslll said. "I have heard the players' complaints and they will be given the fullest consideration. However, this is primarily a mat ter for the coaching staff to re solve." Of the two groups who have aired their complaints, one Is corn- nosed of seniors and the other of sophomore and Juniors. The Seattle Post-Intelligencer reported two of the senior class spokesmen were left halfback Mike Monroe and Quarterback Sandy Lederman, Cherberg's Huskies finished this year with a 5-4-1 mark but suf fered a severe mid-season slump and Cherberg was hung in effigy at one since of the campaign. Cherberg has repeatedly denied a rumor ne slapped reserve left guard Gene Pedersen during tne recent UCLA-. Washington game which UCLA won 19-17 In a thriller. "That's a' dirty lie." said Cher berg. "In 21 years of coaching 1 have never abused a player." He said the slapping Incident was misinterpreted and came .bout in the dressing room after the game when he chucked Peder sen under the chin and told him to put his head np and forget the lnas. . - Lederman, 'reportedly one of the nrotestina seniors, was dismissed from the Washington squad Just betore tne oayior game aim jhuhj fans felt the move had much to do with Washington's mid- season slumn. Cherberg Is hired on a year-io- year basis as are his assistants John Baker, line coach. Bud Kerr, end coach, Jim Sutherland, back field coach. Don Doll, assistant, and frosh coach Bill Marx. Cherberg would not comment on the reported rebellion. Fights By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS HOLLYWOOD, Calif. Cisco Andrade, 136, Compton, Calif., stopped Kenny Davis, 131, Los An geles, 7. HOLYOKE, Mass.

Pointing Supplies Problems By EARL WRIGHT United Presa SporU Writer Jim Trimble of the Philadelphia Eagles and Jim Lee Howell of the New York Olanta are two Nation al Football League coaches who believe a team la asking fo r trouble If It points for any particu lar opponent. Trimble and Howell are particu larly atvar of this problem be cause the Eagles and Giants have been chasing the Cleveland Browns for the past five years In the East ern Division. Beating the Brawns has become almost an obsession with other Eastern Division clubs. As a re sult, they frequently play poorly before or after brilliant efforts against Cleveland. The Eagles pulled one of the top rallies In league history to beat the Browns two weeks ago, 33-17, and then played poorly while losing to New York last Sunday, 31-17. The only way I can explain our poor showing against tne Giants was that our boys had a letdown after beating. the Browns." Trimble said. '"But that's no ex cuse." - , . The Giants have taken delight In defeating Cleveland and boast the only shutout ever scored against the mldwestern team. But while New York has made some good showings against the Browns it also has been wnippea reguiany by the Pittsburgh Steelers in re cent years. The Giants appeared to nave a long drill and skull session Tues day but Howell denied his club was making ay special prepara tions for Sunday's visit by Cleve land. "The movies of our last game were Just late in arriving so It took us longer to get finished," Howell said. "We've already lost two games to the Steelers this season.
