FerguSOn's Power

Northwestern, though it did not
win but half its games this year,
was a good ball club with an out
standing line. They played a fine
game against Ohio State. But
every time the Buckeyes gave the
ball to Ferguson he literally fell
forward at least two to three addi-
tional yards with a couple of
players hanging onto him. And
when he did get past scrimmage
he knew how to move and shift.
He's combination of the old-time
crunching, power football and the
mobility of today's modern, speed
Ter game.
Stephens played here with an in
jured leg and apparently was be-
low par physically. Of the three,
he is the most versatile. He can
run and block and pass. He had a
bad day throwing against North
western - yet it was his running
passing threat, and a few key
passes which he did complete,
which brought the Gophers their
victory that ady, 1912.
He wasn't the best runner in
the Big Ten nor the best passer.
But his versatility made him a
constant threat and he did have
games where his passing was out
standing. Some question his role in
the pro leagues because he is not
exceptional in any one phase of
play. But he easily could be anoth-

Don't Forget Miller

Don't Forget Miller
Two things stand out about the
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. trio. All
three were All-America calibre as
juniors and all three kept up the
pace as seniors under more pres
sure and closer watching. It's prob
ably just as well they shared the
top post-season honors this year.
All three deserved this type of
recognition.
One interesting point is that the
player who finished third behind
Stephens and Ferguson in the Big
Ten most valuable player selection
could well become the greatest pro
player of them all.
He is Ron Miller, the Wisconsin
passer who has been tabled as one
of the finest pro prospects in years.
Miller played behind a thin, green
line the first part of this season,
and the Badgers losing record kept
Miller from national prominence
this year. But by seasons end he
almost passed Wisconsin to victory,
over Ferguson and Big Ten champ
ion Ohio State and, on the final
Saturday, caused the upset over
Stephens and Minnesota which
kept the Gophers from a share of
the Big Ten title.
Miller was drafted a year ago
as a future" by the Los Angeles
Rams.

erful fullback, Bob Ferguson, was
named back-of-the-year by the
United Press.
Stephens Versatile
But Minnesota's versatile quar-
terback, Sandy Stephens, was still
to be heard from. In contention for
the previous two honors, the hard
running, good passing quarterback
Of the Rose Bowl Golden Gophers
was named the most valuable play
er in the Big Ten-the same con-
ference in which Ohio States Fer
guson performs.
We didn't see Davis in action
this year except on television. But
the fact that the pros made him
their No. 1 draft pick is good
enough endorsement. He is, ap-
parently, big and strong and has
good speed. He runs the ends, cat
ches passes, and carries into the
line for the needed short yardage.
Ferguson and Stephens both
played here against Northwestern,
and if there is better back in the
country than Ferguson he must be
tremendous.

SEATTLE tR = A weapons ex- pert told Tuesday of killing an en- ragged medium-siZed Alaska grizzly bear with a single shot from a .22 caliber pistol earlier this month.
 Ira Atkinson. 62, retired postal clerk who now makes and repairs weapons, said he was hunting sheep in the Tok River. country between Anchorage and Fairbanks, with C. w. Wolf, Seattle, and Wolf's 10-year-old boy, Philip.
 They switched to fishing along a small creek and came upon the bear. which was feeding on berries.
 We heard the racket he made. And then, by golly, he came roar ing right at us,' Atkinson said.
 The men hollered and Atkinson fired in the air. to frighten the animal. It stopped 30 feet away. Wolf grabbed their only rifle, from. his son, but he pulled the trigger and it only went click

Dr. Sabin Describes
 Withholding of Oral Polio Vaccine as 'UnWarranted'

NEW YORK tP = Dr. Albert Sabin Tuesday described as un- warranted the US. Health Service recommendation that Type III oral polio vaccine be withheld from adults
 Sabin, developer of the vaccine, said the recommendation must not be allowed to interfere with community programs which are our only hope for complete elimina- ton of pelio.s
 Arriving from England on the liner Queen Mary. Sabin told news men.
 The decision is based on small number of coincidental polio.type illnesses, with no proof in any one of these cases that the Type III vaccine has been responsible for any one of the cases reported. .
 The Health Service made it's recommendation Saturday against adult use of Type III Sabin vac cine after announcing that II con- firmed cases of Type III polio pro- vided sufficient evidence ito indi- cate that at least some of these cases have been caused by Type III Vacelnes.
 While recommending a g a in [ Type III vaccine for adults, the Health Service did urge using it for immunization programs for pre-school and sehool-age children, and recommended continued use of Types 1 and II for everyone.
 Several states decided against continued use of Type III vaccine, but other state and local officials adopted 2 Wait-and-see attitude

I have Just finished a
splendid book called, "Recre-
alton in the Senior Years. {"
1t was written by Arthur
Williams for the Na tional
Recreation Association and
is published by the AsSocia-
ton Press.
1t is an invaluable book
for anyone who works with
older people, or who has older
members in the family. 1t is
extremely important for the
middle-aged person because
it gives such disable directions
in preparing oneself for later
years. 1t can be extremely
helpful to the individual who
has just retired.
Has Problems
The book points out that
the older age group has its
problems just as any other
group does - economic and
suitable housing, are two.
Senior citizens also need

ance in spiritual values, and
