LSU Replaces lowa As Top Ranked Team By NORMAN MILLER United Press International NEW YORK <UPI) — Louisiana State, which has confounded the “experts” this season not only with its perfect record but also by the huge marc in of its victories, took over the No. 1 spot from lowa today in the United Press International college foot--ball ratings. This was the sixth team to take over first place during the eight weeks of this unpredictable season. Ohio State, Oklahoma and Auburn led during each of the first three weeks, then Army and lowa took over for two weeks cavil. LSU emerged on top after crushing a respectable Duke team, 50-18, Saturday night for its eighth consecutive victory. Coach Paul Dietzel’s Tigers have outscored their opponents 206 points to 47 thus far. The only team that came reasonably close to beating the Bayou Bengals was Florida, which succumbed 10-7 two weeks ago. LSU. which appears Sugar Bowlbound, still has Mississippi State and Tulane left to play. Pcor Pre-Season Pick The Tigers were not even picked to finish 1-2-3 in their own Southeastern Conference before the start of this season. Twenty of the 35 leading coaches who make up the UPI rating board cast their first-place ballot for LSU this week. lowa, which walloped Minnesota, 28-6, and clinched the Big Ten championship and the Rose Bowl berth, had 14 first-place votes. In points, LSU topped lowa. 324 to 307. The only other first-place ballot went to third-ranked Army. Following the Cadets in order came Auburn, Wisconsin, Oklahoma, Purdue, Mississippi, Northwestern and Pittsburgh. Newcomers To List Mississippi and Pitt were this week’s newcomers to the top 10, both returning after an absence of one week. Ohio State dropped out of the select group for the first time -this season and Notre Dame plummeted all the way from 10th to a tie for 20th place. Syracuse headed this week's second 10 group, followed in order by Air Force Academyt and Ohio State. North Carolina and Texas. Christian were tied for 14th place, trailed in order by Rice; Southern Methodist, Georgia Teih and -Navy.. Notre Dame was tied for 20th with California. These were the only teams which received votes this week.

TH» DBCATUIt DAILY MBIOCRAT. DICATUH, INDIANA

Indiana Team Is Surprise Os Big Ten By KURT FREUDENTHAL United Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPII—As sure as this is Veterans’ Day, Indiana’s football Hoosiers gave notice today they're on the comeback trail, and ahead of schedule, too. The pre - season outlook was bleak, indeed, with virtually the same team that managed only one victory last year and without a win in the Big Ten to share the cellar with Northwestern But like the Wildcats. Indiana’s “pore ‘lil boys” made a phenomenal recovery. They’ve won their last three starts, two of them in the Big Ten, to go into the final two games of the season on the winning side of a 4-3 record. It’s been 11 long years since Indiana had taken two in a row from loop foes and when both Minnesota and Michigan State went down by 6-0 scores, it marked the first time since 1937 that the Hoosiers shut out two straight teams in conference play. Scoreless A Year Ago The sam'! two teams scored , a total of 88 points on the Hoosiers and held them scoreless a "year ago. Indiana’s coaches and followers figured that the Hoosier rebuildjhg program which started when Phil Dickens and his assistants moved to Bloomington, Ind., from Wyoming in 1957 was advanced considerably by the players’ determination to get off the floor. They gave Notre Dame a battle before bowing in the opener, 18-0. They had their backs to -the wall in every game since end never gave up. After the victory over Minnesota, Dickens lauded his boys for giving “150 per cent" to make the season a success. There was dancing in the streets at Bloomington Saturday night as the town celebrated the triumph over the Spartans as if Indiana had just won a trip to the Rose Bowl. And from stuble-bums of last year they were transformed into heroes. Regardless hoW Indiana fares against Michigan this week and Purdue ’ the next, the season is a success “beyond our fondest hopes,” said one spokesman. Coach Praises Ted “I thought before the season we had a chance to win a Couple —never four,” he added. Dickens lauded the defensive efforts of Ted Aucreman, a 171pound end as “the greatest I’ve ever seen—and he had enough guts for 10 men.” The Hoosier defense, sparked by guards Mike Rabold and Bill Kerr, tackle Bill Corrigan and Aucreman, has improved remarkably over last year. Indiana also has one of the league’s most dangerus runners in Ted Smith, a deceptive 5-10 tailback, who is hard to stop. - - p What about Saturday's Michigan game? The coaches were busy today poring over scouting reports. Winning three straight in the Big Ten hasn’t been done by Indiana since 1945 when the Hoosiers won their only loop crown. And with no place to go but up, Indiana is b juri to shoot the works tp make up lost time. Ovar 2,500 Daily Democrats are sold and delivered in Decatur each day.

Decatur Football Team Honored Monday Night

A big improvement, in Indiana college football was forecast and anecdotes from years of association with sports leaders were told Monday evening by Hilliard Gates, Jfort Wayne sportscaster, to the Decatur Lions club and Decatur Booster club meeting to honor the Decatur high school football team. The Rev. Robert Jaeger, assist- I aint pastor of St. Mary’s Catholic ; church of Decatur, gave the invo- i cation. John Paul McAhren led | a seven-man combo in dinner music. Wilbur Petrie, president of the ' Decatur Booster club, asked that j a collection be taken up for the i Vera Cruz opportunity school, , where exceptional students are ; trained on the Adams-Wells coun- ; ty line. More than S3O was collected for the school, which includes a number of Adams county students. Herman Krueckeberg, cashier of the First State Bank of Decatur, was master of ceremonies, and he welcomed the group to the meeting and introduced the head table guests. Coach Robert Worthman presented special “D” letters to Wilbur Petrie, present Booster club president, and L. E. Anspaugh, past president. He then presented one to Gates, explaining that he had made so many trips to Decatur in the past 20 years that he felt he deserved a letter. Worthman then introduced the following team members who were invited to the annual appreciation dinner: seniors, Steve Lytle, John Shaffer, Tim Murphy, Bob Shraluka. Larry Ritter, Lynn Smith, Pat Franklin, Dave Vanhorn, Ter- ■ ry Holtsberry, Jim Corah, Nick 1 Conrad, Leonard Thieme, Rex Allison, and Bill Bischoff. Juniors: Jim Gay, Jim bach, Terry Snyder, Herb Banning, Jay DeVoss, Waldo Snyder. Charles Krueckeberg. Roger Fuelling, Joe Smith, Mike Thieme, Larry Butler, and Harley Wolfe. Sophomores: John Cowan, Stu Knodel, Tom Grabill, and Ed Nelson. Student manager Jerry Mclntosh was also introduced. Krueckeberg then introduced Petrie, who thanked those who had worked with him to make the banquet a success. Petrie then introduced the speaker. After congratulating coach Worthman, Gates went on to tell a series of fast-moving stories on sports. One story was about the Indiana university football team last year. The team didn’t win a game, and was smeared by several teams in a row. Coach Hicks studied the problems, and thought he finally had it figured out. He called the team together, and told them how the opposing team was cutting great holes through the line, and how it could be stopped, i He thought he had it all explain- ' ed, and then asked the question, “Now where do teams lose most ;of their yardage?” “Right here ’ at Indiana University,” one of the players replied. Report Pheasants Are More Plentiful More pheasants were seen on opening day Monday than during the entire season last year, according to reports from hunters in the Decatur area. Last year's poor harvest weather meant that the fields provided perfect cover for the birds, while this year's bare fields allowed the dogs to flush more of the coveted animals. Best report of kills camfi from the Mitchels, who killed seven birds opening day, and three to:day. In on the hunt were Russell, ! Lester, Floyd and Arlen, among others. Carl Braun reported killing a White pheasant with a red head on opening day. About one per cent of the birds raised this year in the county were white ones. Bill Lengerich, Lyle Cotton of Bluffton, and Dave Moore of Decatur also each got a pheasant. Ray Fager reported a kill, as ■ did Ike Chilcote. Gene Baker, Bob ■Hess, Jim Meyer and friends reported several birds killed by their group. Dick Walter added that he killed two quail and two rabbits.

mI ■ ’ ;. * ? -of- . : -• WrVs# wl • 8 ? f.WwBK.' '"«-? - Hilliard Gates Pro Football Attendance Is Still Booming PHILADELPHIA (UPD — The high cost of football living was bothering Commissioner Bert Beil today as the National Fbotball League attendance mark kept zooming toward the three million mark for 1958. The saturation point may be looming, and costs are going up. For two weekends in a row, the attendance was “the greatest ever’’ in the 39 year history of the league, with unofficial attendance this past weekend listed as 342,734. “That looks to me like 305,000 paid,” said the commissioner, who peers at the cash registers and not the seats. “It was something like 295,000 paid the week before. We have a pretty good chance to hit the three million mark this year, if the weather stays in our favor.” Fly In Ointmer.it But, there is a fly in every , ointment. Even the prospect of , the seventh straight year for ! breaking attendance records .doesn't keep Bell from brooding t over what might happen if costs [ continue to mount and a few t rainy weekends nick at the tills , of some of the less fortunate clubs ! attendance and victory-wise, j “Mind it's wonderful, it’s al- . most unbelievable, a three million 5 attendance, but there's a chance t that it might not be a bounty to > every one after a 11,” Bell I said. . ■ “I would guess the extra tabs ■ of the teams are costing from i $150,000 to $200,000 a year. That ’ means some of them might not do so well on an overall picture . as it first appears. “It’s unbelievable what the ris- . ing costs are — unbelievable what it costs to travel, what it costs for hotels, what it cpsts, for office personnal player salaries, extra coaches, and scouting. If we hit the attendance saturation point, somethings got to give. Four Border Cases "I don’t know how some of the clubs are going to do any better. 1 Somebody might have to lose. ! You might say four teams are ■ possible border line cases in the ' matter of profit and loss. A rainy weekend could shift the red and : black ink in the wrong direction.” “Understand. ' Bert continued, > “I’m not crying. It’s marvelous ’ how it has been going. I’m not ■ complaining about the player salaries. There’s a $5,000, minimum ’ there, and I don’t know anyone i getting it. They’re all above it. - It's the overall expenses that are proving the big problem, big j attendance notwithstanding.”
