THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1948 GRID FIGURES GIVEN, DEFENSE OFFENSE PLAYS 18.—(M—When in this fall, NEW YORK, Nov. all the returns a: some college ¢ who stress foothall offense o efense might well sit down and reconsider. Prime examples of the strong defense theory are Michigan and Clemson. Two oi the nation’s re- maining undefeated and untied major teams. Rugged line work is Michigan’s answer to high scoring football opponents, and the Wolverine for- wards might be classed as the best in the country. The Michi- gan opposition has scored just 41 points in eight games. Clemson is right behind in the tight defense category, for the Tigers have yielded only 47 points in seven games. Latest figures from the Nation- al Collegiate Athletic Bureau show- ed today that Michigan was four- th in rushing defense, having giv- en up an average of 824 yards per game. Clemson is 13th, ing opponents to a 106.0 average on the ground. Two cther major fits, Army and North Carolina, rank third and fourth in total defense against both rushing and passing. Both have allowed oniy 167.1 yards per game. Michigan opponents have com- Lleted 40 per cent of their pas for 1233 yards per game, but only three have been for touchdowns. After leading for five straight weeks, Georgia Tech seems a safe bet to capture honors for the best total defense. Tech is first in rushing defens given up only 56.8 yare me on the ground. In eight the Engineers have yard average total defense figure.

Joe received the wound originally November 8 when he accidentally sumped heads with Johnny Shkor n an exhibition at Boston. The cut bled only slightly, but s opened it up again in the fourth. Bivins did most of the leading, while Louis opened up only spor- ically. He almost dropped Bivins with a right in the second when the two were in a neutral corner. The champion jatbed most of the | athletics long enough.” That is what Col. William Couper, of Virginia Military Institute, said yesterday in announcing that he will resign as President of the Southern Conference. He said his resignation will be made when the conference's annual meeting opens December 9, in Wash- jinzton, D.

The play started at,9 o'clock and it was long after midnight before the last call was made and easy, but opened up suddenly at one coint in the fifth and drove Bivins to cover with a flurry of rights and lefts. Ithough the exhibition was a no- iecision affair, Matchmaker Larry Atkins conducted a poll among newsmen at ringside and reported the writers favored Bivins by a 9 to 5 vote. However, most everyone agreed that Louis had plenty in eserve. Louis weighed 220 and had a 40- chickens for the evening's fun. Scores were turned away during the event as every chair, every table was cccupied, and standing who ap-|room was at a premium.
