Wolverines Triumph
Over UCLA, 42-13

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Sept. 20
(Pl. - Michigan's ball-hawking
Wolverines forced a power
stripped and inexperienced UCLA
team into one mistake after an
other today and Numbered into
a 42-l3 football victory.
A pair of husky sophomore
backs playing behind an all-vet-
eran line had a big part in the
Michigan triumph in the VOL
verines' 10th opening game,
played before 67,739 fans.
1t was the first defeat for the
Pacific Coast Conference cham
pions. who opened their season
last week with 1877 win over
Utah. Slapped of most of its
veteran strength by conference
penalties for illegal aid to
athletes, UCLA fumbled four
times and each time Michigan
recovered. Three times the bob
bles led to Michigan touchdowns.
Another Michigan score fol-
lowed an 11-yard UCLA punt.
John Herrnstein, sophomore
fullback, whose father and uncle
starred on Michigan teams of
yesteryear, scored twice for
Michigan and Sophomore Bob
Ptacek, a 205-pound tailback
from Cleveland, passed for
another.
The Wolverines scored the
second time they had the bail.

The last private owner was
Louis Hertle, who in 1882 do
mated the estate to the Com

memory Of his late wife who
was a member of the National
