Oosterbaan Os Michigan Is Coach Os Year New York, Dec. 7— (UP) — Bennie Oosterbaan, who guided Michigan’s football teain through its second straight undefeated season in his first campaign as head coach, today was named coach of the year in the annual poll of the New York World-Telegram and associated Scripps-Howard newspapers. Selection of Oosterbaan by a ballot of 262 coaches from all over the nation marked the second year in a row that a Wolverine coach had been so honored. Herbert 0. (Fritz) Crisler, Michigan athletic director whom Ooosterman succeeded as head coach, won the 1947 award. The easy-going Ooosterbaan, an all America end at Michigan in 1925, 1926 and 1927, received 61 first place votes, 28 for second place and 21 for third to win by a comfortable margin over Lynn (Pappy) Waldorf, coach of California's undefeated Rose Bowl representatives. Waldorf was the first choice of 33 coaches. Although the coaches voted for three of their colleagues on a 5-3-1 point basis, only first place votes were considered ir the selection. Second and third place points were counted only in the case of a tie in first place ballots. Coach Hob Voigts of Northwestern, the big nine entry in the Rose Bowl, was third with 22 first place ballots, and Frank Howard, coach of Clemson’s unbeaten southern conference champions, was fourth with 15. Madison (Matty) Bell, whose Southern Methodist eleven won the southwest conference title, was, fifth, and Tuss McLaughrey of Dartmouth sixth. Each had 13 first place votes but Beil received 13 second place ballots to two for McLaughrey. Behind them in the first 10 came Charles (Bud) Wilkinspn of Okla homa. seventh, Frank Leahy of Notre Dame, eighth, and Bob Higgins
