24, 1968 THE MICHIGAN DAILY P~age seven The Truckin' Bob Lees- I'm a fair guy. I mean, I was as sick as the rest of the press box spectators Saturday when the Michigan football squad melted before my eyes. But after awhile I began to notice a few bright spots; and, after deciding I didn't have sunstroke after all, I decided to look a little9 closer.. The most obvious improvement over last year ws the' kicking. Every time you looked out on the field, there was Markl Werner punting, so you know he had a lot of practice. Even so,a all of his ten punts had that Donny Anderson look about them- long, high floaters. If the stadium had been domed, he would havet hit the roof.r All in all, only four of his near-40-yarders were returned at all--j for a grand total of 15 yards. Most of the time Cal's runback artists,y Paul Williams and Bob Darby, could be seen at a dead run-back- wards-with their hands in the air for a fair catcth. Only these long drives kept the Wolverine defense out of several big holes. Yet the offense was absolutely /stalled through the first period, as the left,side of the Bear line, led by highly-regarded Ed White, was in the Michigan backfield as often as Bump Elliott's messenger boys. But the second period saw a reversal of this, as the Wolverine offensive line began to hold its own. A large share of this turnabout can be credited to Stan Broadnax. He, along with Dan Dierdorf, had the job of blocking out those Berkeley leftists, and from the second period on White saw much of the game through the grassblades: In fact, the Wolverins really moved the ball (though interceptions hurt) until Broadnax was removed in the fourth quarter due to heat exhaustion. "The middle of the defensive line, meanwhile, was successfully bombarded through much of the game. The obvious reason, from the fan's point of view, was that Cal found this an easy access route to the goal posts. But the hidden reason for that reason was the fact that they didn't run well around the ends. On the left side stood Phil Seymour, who made 17 tackles, 15 of them solo jobs. On the right side were John Kramer, who was in- jured in the first quarter, and Jim Wilhite. All told, they held all Cal runners who came their way to a net of less than three yards per carry. . Wolverine runners, though, didn't do too much better. The entire Michigan ground attack totaled 99 yards, with Ron Johnson held to 48 of them..But there, too, a brightness shone through the dismal showing-in the unlikely 'form of, fullback Garvie Craw. Along with Johnson, Cre'w turned in his usual fantastic blocking job; but he also performed the unusual, for him, by gaining 30 yards in six attempts. When it comes to the defense backfield, even the most pessi- mistic; writers about the game found little to cmplain about. Brian Healy and Tom Curtis turned in good perfornances on their side, 4s did George Hoey and Bob Wedge on the right. Unfor- tunately, Wedge's greatest moment-an interception in the: third period-was marred by his attempted lateral--and resultant fumble-in the general direction of Healy. Curtis' interception in the second period, meanwhile, set the stage for Michigan short-lived comeback. Cal had penetrated deep into Wolverine territory, and quarterback Randy Humphries lifted a long bomb-only to find the Wolverine safety waiting to gather it in. Werner then punted Michigan out of danger. The game proved to be a costly one, injurywise, for the Blue squad, as halfback Dave Farabee and defensive left tackle Tom Goss joined Kramer on the bandage parade. Farabee, injury-prone through- out pre-season practice, broke his left arm and is lost for /the season, while Kramer, who hobbled around on crutches all weekend as the result of his knee injury, may have to undergo surgery. The senior end will miss much of the .season, while Goss, who suffered a hip bruise, has a 50-50 chance of starting against Duke. In any event, it will be a much grimmer Wolverine squad that takes the field Saturday in Durham. They'll be used to hot weather, for one, and they'll realize that they can't depend on last year's bright spots all the time. But several new ones presented themselves Satur- day, and the entire squad may' benefit from the variety they showed. Oh, yes, one more bright spot: so far, the Wolverines are batting 1.000 in points after touchdown. I Whoop S!

The Orioles, who need one more victory to clinch second place be- hind the American League cham- pion Tigers, finished . their 1968 action against McLain with a 3-2 record-accounting for half of his defeats. Before being removed for a pinch hitter in the eighth, McLain struck out four to become Detroit's all-time season strikeout leader with 276, one more than Hal New-! houser, fanned in 1946. Thfe Tigers, who have won 39 games:in which they have been tied or were behind in the seventh inning or later, almost pulled out another one-as they did when McLain won his 30th. Baltimore rookie Roger Nelson working on a three-hitter through seven, was removed after Don, Wert and pinch hitter Eddie Mathews singled in the eighth. Richert struck out Dick McAu-' liffe, but Detroit scored when sec- Funeral drumsI sound for the soccer lea gue DETROIT (P)-Officials of the Detroit Cougars of the North American S o c c e r League an- nounced yesterday their decision to disband because of financial losses. "We had been prepared to incur substantial losses for at least a five-year period, but the actual losses have been so far in excess of our pessimistic projections, with no real indication of significant improvement, that we simply could not feel justified in carry- ing on," said John W. Anderson II, president of the Cougars. "We had hoped for a mininum average paid attendance of 5,000 to 6,000 per game," Anderson ex- plained. "The actual average was less than 1,500." He said the relatively poor fin-, ish of the Cougars during the 1968 season was not a factor in the decision. ond baseman Dave Johnson drop- ped a throw for an error on Mickey Stanley's grounder. Rich- ert then got Jim Northrup on a grounder and, after walking Al Kaline intentionally, to load the bases, retired Norm Cash on an infield out. McLain, who had a six-game winning streak snapped, allowed five hits and one of the Baltimore runs was unearned. The 24-year-old right-hander, OTHERS FAIR: first hurler to win 31 since Lefty Grove in 1931, failed in a bid to become the first 32-game winner since Grover Cleveland Alexander, in 1916.1 Boog Powell's two-out single in the first inning scored Mike Fiore, who had reached second base on shortstop Stanley's throwing error on an attempted double play. A walk, a sacrifice, and Don Bu- ford's bloop single made it 2-0 in the seventh. dailly sports NIGHT EDITOR: ANDY BARBAS Once upon a time, in a far off enchanted kingdom where nobody ever died and everything was warm, there lived a handsome prince, by the name of Pool. (Perhaps I should add that Pool was a popular name of the time, not unlike "Bob" or "Pete" is now.) Pool was looking for a beautiful princess to cheer him up, because although he cheered everybody else up, nobody cheered him up. So he made a great big pile of mattresses and put a pea under it. His reasoning was this: if a real princess stops by, she will sleep lousy because of the pea. Just then a knock came at the door. "Hello," said a winsome lass, barely out of college. "I want to sleep here tonight and I'm a princess." So she slept there on the pile of mattresses, because the prince wanted to see if she was the real McCoy. In the middle of the night, the princess woke up because of a sudden noise, hit her head on the rafter, and spent the rest of her life thinking she was Rory Calhoun. In other action, Gridde Pickings announces its first winner to be Ray Berch of Bursley Hall here at Michigan.

St. Norbert at River Falls g es Big1 Tn favorites impIressive By JOE MARKER The annual fall phenomenon known as Big Ten football, much maligned in recent years for its low percentages against outside competition, is supposed to stage an upsurge in 1968. However, events on the gridiron last Satur- day did nothing to salve the wounded pride of the conference. The favorites in the title chase remained unscathed, and except for Michigan State and Iowa, the' also-rans did little to indicate im- provement. Conference favorites Purdue and Minnesota staged impressive performances, even though the latter lost a heartbreaker, while Ohio State awaits its opener. At Lafayette, Indiana, Leroy Keyes picked up where he left off last year, and helped pass and run Purdue to a 44-6 victory over a lackluster Virginia team. He ran for 62 yards, passed for 51 more, and for good measure caught eight passes for nearly a hundred yards. Quarterback Mike Phipps rid- dled the Virginia secondary for 230 yards passing in a tuneup for this week's clash with Notre Dame. A disturbing fact for Coach Jack Mollenkopf is that Virginia pounded the Boilermaker line for 182 yards rushing. It took another fabulous per- formance by 0. J. Simpson to carry defending national champ- ion South California to a come-from-behind 29-20 victory over an aggressive' Minnesota team.- Minnesota established itself as a team to ,be reckoned with in the Big Ten, as they forced the heavily-favored Trojans to the brink of defeat. . k The Gophers took the lead 20- 16 midway in the fourth quarter as George Kemp and John Win- termute combined on an 83-yard kickoff return. Then, to the disappointment of the near sellout crowd of 60,280 in Minneapolis, Simpson struck for his third and fourth touchdowns of the game in the final four min- utes. He carried the ball six times in USC's drive for the winning touchdown, sweeping the right end for the final seven yards. All told, Simpson gained 367 yards, 236 on rushing alone. The Iowa Hawkeyes provided one of the big upsets of the young campaign when they dumped! highly-regarded Oregon State, 21-! 20. Iowa had been figured to pro-i vide a doormat for the other Big Ten teams again this year, but maybe they have come of age. The sophdmore-d o m i n a t e d Hawkeyes forced the Beavers into' three fumbles and an intercepted pass in the last' quarter alone to. help, preserve the victory. Although Oregon State ran for 309 yards, the Iowa defense was tough when backed into its own territory. Indiana, another title co-favor- ite has unexpected trouble from a supposedly weak Baylor team, ands had to travel 80 yards in the last four minutes for a wild 40-36 vic- tory,' with Harry Gonso scoring with only 18 seconds left on the clock. The game marked the continua- tion of Indiana's hair-raising fin- ishes of last year. It is apparent that coach Johnny Pont will have to shore up his defense for this week's clash with Kansas,rwhich demolished Illinois 47-7. Kansas erupted with 20 points in the second quarter after a scoreless first stanza, and added four more touchdowns in t h e second half, the last two coming on an intercepted pass and a recovered fumble. The Jayhawks shredded t h e Illini defense for over 500 yards, including 152 on kickoffs and re- turns. Duffy Daugherty's Michigan State Spartans apparently enjoy- ed the television exposure as they upset a strong Syracuse team in East Lansing, 14-10. MSU twice came from behind, with quarterback Bill Feraco put- ting them ahead to stay with an eight yard touchdown gallop in the final quarter.' Wisconsin traveled to Arizona State for a game Saturday night and, as expected, was decisively thrashed, 55-7. It was a case of too much Arizona speed against a porous Badger defense. Northwestern couldn't repeat its upset over Miami (Fla.) and bow- ed to the Hurricanes Friday night, 28-7. Michigan, with an offense start- ing slowly and then tapering off as the game progressed, couldn't recover from two quick California touchdowns and lost to the Bears, 21-7. When's Ohio State? Coach Woody Hayes takes a dim view of "exhibition games" and the Buck- eyes took the Saturday off, leav- ing Big Ten teams with an unim- pressive 4-5 record for their ef- forts over the weekend.
