MADISON
Wisconsin is like the maraschino cherry on top of a hot fudge
sundae. You like to leave it to the last.
At least, that must have been the delectable thought of the
Michigan footballers as they tried to regroup after their fifth straight
loss to Minnesota. Looking to the last half of the season, Wisconsin
must have loomed big-not because anything would ride on the game,
but because it would probably be the only laugher on the schedule.
Wisconsin is such a "breathier" that they would be considered a
worthy opponent for Notre Dame.
They like to talk about Ron Vander Kelen'up here and the
1962 Wisconsin team which finished second in the nation and
represented the Big Ten in the Rose Bowl. They like to talk about
it so. much that it; seems like everybody spends their Saturday
afternoons doing it. The Dow Chemical interviews drew more on
the Madison campus than yesterday's game.
Yesterday's 27-14 may not be reminiscent of the 50-7 slaugter
of the Badgers in 1965, but the way things have been going for the
1967 edition of the Wolverines, it was quite comparable. For one thing,
the 27 makrers were the most for the Wolverines this year. For another
thing, the passing game finally got untracked as Denny Brown clicked
on two scoring tosses.
Before yesterday, Michigan had tallied only one via the air ways
(a seven-yarder to, Jim Berline last week against Illinois). Also, the
passes were of the "bomb" variety, as Brown-to-Berline was good
for 60 yards, and Brown-to-Ron Johnson netted 31 yards.
As Wolverine fans know, the bomb is not in Michigan's repertoire.
In fact, it is probably our worst play. But that's Wisconsin-they bring
out the worst in you. As one. scribe in the press box noted, "You've
only thrown one TD pass up until now? Well, in that case, you came
to the right place to break the slump."'
If Wisconsin lives up to their present form, "they shall inherit
the earth." Only the meek lose to Pittsburgh. The Badgers haven't
had a perfect season-they did manage to tie Iowa an event which
caused one Hawkeye rooter to describe his team's efforts as a "moral
loss."
After the game, the press was informed that Wisconsin head
coach John Coatta would meet with them in the team physician's
office, a place, no doubt, chosen by necessity instead of for
convenience.
Upon entering, the first sight was that of a rather dour-
looking skeleton. The next was of its twin, Coatta, who looked
rather "picked clean" by an 0-8-1 record.
He mumbled the usual comments about how good the Michigan
team was ("as good or better than any team we've played") and how
excellent Brown was ("real good, real fast"), but his heart wasn't in
It. He kept running his hand through his gray hair, and all his sen-
tences trailed off at the end.
To one question about what happened in an obvious lapse by a
Wisconsin player, Coatta leaned back and in frustration muttered,
"I just don't know what the hell happened to him there." Not the
usual hedging quote, but Wisconsin isn't even the usual team.
Wisconsin does have some bringt spots which might bring a
halt to the deemphasis of football on the Badger campus. Mel
Reddick, a Chicago sophomore, looks like an All-American split
end. He caught five passes for 85 yards yesterday, and displayed
the marvelous football ability of being able to "get off by himself."
Also, Wisconsin will have an experienced quarterback in John
Ryan, who will be able to get the ball to Reddick. Ryan has started
much of this year, but a late season slump brought on his replace-,
ment, John Boyajian ("just call me John").
Wisconsin did officially lose one member of its family yesterday
when Michigan captain Joe Dayton presented the game ball to Presi-
dent-Designate Robben Fleming, the former Chancellor at Wisconsin.
Michigan coach Bump Elliott introduced Fleming as "a former
Badger, but now a Wolverine," an announcement which produced a
cheer from the team and a sigh of relief from Fleming.
It was learned after the game that Minnesota had destroyed
Indiana, and all the Gophers needed was a win over Wisconsin next
week to send them to Pasadena for New Year's Day.
Talk about saving the maraschino cherry till last.

first quarter. It was the 885th
yard of the season for Johnson
as he passed Tom Harmon's old
Michigan rushing record of 884.
Two plays later Dennis Brown
rolled out for twenty-two yards to
the Wisconsin 39, but lost 13 yards
on the next play.
With third and 19 on the Wis-
consin 48, Brown pulled the first
of his miracle third-down plays,
a 37-yard pass to Johnson.,
Johnson was originally a safety-
valve receiver near the sidelines
but Brown was chased around the
Michigan backfield so long, gc-
cording to Elliott, that Johnson1
just headed upfield. This made it
a bomb, the first of the afternoon.:
Two rushes by Gabler did the
trick. and the Wolverines had a
14-7 lead.1
On the first play Michigan hadt

Johnson lost three yards. On the'
second play, Brown hit Berline
with a picture-perfect pass. Ber-

Two of them ran to either side of
the field. However, Wisconsin punts
were so high that Hoey had little
rooom to run and in fact many fair
catches had to be called.
Curtiss did have one fine return
that was nullified by a penalty.
Michigan's "sloppiness index," if
that's the correct name, continued
to be down with only one fumble
lost and one pass intercepted. This
was a far cry from earlier games
An exception to this was the 105
yards walked off in penalties. This
can be compared to the fact that
Michigan was pot penalized at all
last week against Illinois.
The extremes of Michigan foot-
ball were increased this week even
further than usual. Besides Dreh-
mann's 51-yard punt, he also had
a ten-yarder which had a fifteen-
yard personal foul penalty against
the Wolverines attached, and a 25-
yard "coffin-corner" kick to the
eight.
