WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1967" THE .MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1967 TUE MICHIGAN DAILY ._. .. ,. Winless Wisconsin Looks By BILL LEVIS Only two games separate Wis- consin from its worst won and lost record in history. And only Michigan and Minne- sota stand in the Badgers' way of reaching that dubious goal. The Wolverines are riding the waves of a two game winning streak, but they are not taking Wisconsin lightly even though the Badgers are sporting an 0-7-1 rec- ord. "They have been coming on strong the last four weeks," Mich- igan coach Bump Elliott stresses. "They could have won the last three games and probably should have." And the statistics appear to bear out the Michigan mentor. Since tying Iowa 21-21, the Bad- gers have let victory slip out of their grasp against Northwestern, Indiana and Ohio State. Wiscon- sin has just had the opposite-fate of the Hoosiers who have won six games by seven points or less. Under the guidance of first year head coach John Coatta, they have lost games by four, five and two points in their last three outings. Against amazing Indiana, Wis- consin twice drove down to the Eoosiers' 10-yard line before being stymied by the Indiana defense. The second time, the Badgers struggled in vain to get a score on the board as the clock ran out, bowing to the Cinderella team 14-9. Last Week Last week, the Badgers' came within minutes of an upset victory over Ohio State only to lose 17-15 when Ohio State scored the game winning touchdown on a four-yard burst.

"And now stay tuned for the greatest spectacle in racing Commercial) "We're back in the control tower once again here at the Indiana- polis 500. I'm Sid Collins, and it's been my pleasure to bring you this world-wide broadcast for the past 16 years. This year we'd like to welcome stations WMAO in Peking, WLSD in San Francisco and WLBJ in Saigon to our international family of networks. And now down to the track." "Oh, the moonlight shines tonight upon the Wabash . .. " "That was Russell Wonderlick with his stirring rendition of 'On the Banks of the Wabash.' one of the annual traditions here at the, Speedway. And now down to the tractk." "Gentlem-e-n, sta-a-rt your engi-i-nes ..." "That was Tony Hulman, owner of the 500, announcing those immortal words which have become such an annual tradition here at the Speedway." "V-room, V-room, v-room.... "That was the roar of the' engines which the gentlemen have s just started. What an annual tradition that has become here. Indian- apolis would be just another race without it." "Sid, Sid . ." "Yes, Freddy? That was the voice of Freddy Agabashian, who is becoming an annual tradition up here in the broadcasting booth after retiring from racing six years ago. What would our interna- tional family of networks do without him. What say, Fred?" "I just thought I should point out that the race has started, Sid. By the way, you're doin' a great job again this year, buddy. This should be the greatest race ever." "Thanks, Freddy. You're too kind. And now we'll switch to Jim Shelton in the first turn." "Right-o, Sid. And I'd just like to say that I'm glad to be bring- ing you the first turn for the fifteenth straight year here at Indian- apolis. This is truly the greatest spectacle in sports. Thirty-three men and machines. A real test of endurance and skill, By the way Sid, they passed me here at the first turn about two minutes ago. Geez, were they going fast. Ididn't notice who was ahead." "And now stay tuned for the greatest spectacle in racing." (Commercial) "Hi, I'm Sid Collins, and we're back in the control tower here it the Indianapolis 500, where I'm pleased to present Mr. Brian Jones, who for the last five years, has joined us in the broadcasting booth from his home in England to amaze us with his phenomenal knowledge of past races, which he has committed to memory. Brian, amaze us." "Thanks, Sid. I'd just like to say first of all that I'm jolly glad to be amazing all the people on our international family of networks for this my seventh year - or is it six? Anyway, I would like to point out that for the last 64 years in a row this great spectacle has started out with 33 cars and at least that many drivers. And it didn't surprise me one bit when it bloody well happened again this year." "Sid, Sid.. ." "Excuse me, Brian, I hate to interrupt this most interesting portion of the program, but it has been our policy here for all the 16 years I've been broadcasting this great spectacle to interrupt anyone at any time if something important is happening down on the track. How does it look down on the track, Jim?" "I dunno, Sid.They sure are goin' fast." "Sid, Sid..." "Oh, it was you Freddy. I knew I recognized that voice from someplace." "Thanks, Sid. I just thought I should point out that they've -ompleted 25 laps, and the lead has been taken over by..." "And now stay tuned to the greatest spectacle in racing." (Commercial) "Hi, I'm Sid Collins, and we're back in the control tower here at the Indianapolis 500, where I'm pleased to have with me Mr. Tony Hulman, owner of the Indianapolis 500 Speedway. Tony, it looks like another great one." "Yes, Sid, greatness has'become a tradition here at . . ." "Sid, Sid . .." "Shudup, Freddy. Can't you hear I'm interviewing Tony Hulman? Don't interrupt." "But Sid. There's a big crash down at the first turn. All the cars are on fire. It looks like a bad one." "Another of our great traditions here at the 500, racing fans. In a moment we'll have full coverage of this spectacular crash.. ." "So be sure and stay tuned for the greatest spectacle in racing.- Ohio State coach Woody Hayes had the audacity after the game to call Wisconsin the best winless team in the country. Minnesota coach Murray Warmath bestowed; a similar honor on Michigan two weeks ago when he called the Wolverines the best 1-5 team in the nation after the Gophers had squeaked through with a 20-15 victory over Bump Elliott's crew. After Warmath's statement, the Wolverines took the words to heart winning the next two in a row. Elliott fears the same kind of retaliation from the Badgers. "They're a good team and they are just beginning to roll now," he cautions. Enormous Desire Wisconsin's enormous desire to win is seen in their intense work on the football fundamentals even though the Badgers are as- sured of a horrendous record. "Some teams, when they face the reality of losing start to fool around," defensive backfield Coach Don James reports, "but Wisconsin is staying with basic football formations, always trying to win. They are continuing to hit real hard." James feels that Wisconsin is making improvement, especially Tickets Ready For Basketball Season basketball tickets go on sale. 8:30 this morning at the Athletic Administration Building ticket offices, on the corner of Hoover and State Streets.

Their passing for example, ' has been coming along very well under (John) Boyajian. "He passed for 252 yards against Ohio State, a team known for its tough pass defense." 19 of 36 Boyajian, a senior, completed 19 of 36 passes against the Buck- eyes. John Ryah had been Coat- ta's number one signal caller for the early part of the season but Boyajian seems to have won the job for the rest of the year with his Ohio State performance. He has completed 46 passes for 571 yards and two touchdowns this season. His pinpoint passing accounted for both Badger touchdowns against the Buckeyes. He combined with halfback Dick Schumitsch on a sparkling 51-yard pass play and with Mel Reddick for a four- yard touchdown late in the first quarter.
