Redford High, relying on th powerful legs of flu-stricken Ken Mike, dethroned Redford St. Mary as the Goodfellow Game champion, 27 to 7, before 3S.898 chilled fans at Briggs Stadium. It was the same raw brute power the Huskies used for eight previous victories that crushed St Mary. THE FIRST HALF and the game belonged to the Huskies, who rang up a 21-0 lead before the intermission. It looked easy.

Mike, a 195-pound senior tailback, did most of the damage in the first half, rushing for 106 yards. And the blond senior climbed out of a sick bed to do it. He arrived at school Friday morning pale and feeling weak, bitten by the flu bug. He was sent home for rest. I 1 -j (V I- 1 1: --t Vi Vs Ai A -v 3 v.

"I told them to go out and crack and rush. They did. "I knew this team was capable of a game like this and they finally showed it."

THE "ULTIMATUM," according to the unsubstantiated story, supposedly was made at a meeting called by Williams "at midweek before the Wisconsin game."
