MICHIGAN QUARTERBACK DENNIS BROWN hesitates looking
for an open receiver in yesterday's 31-10 win over Duke. The
senior completed 13 passes in 23 attempts for 180 yards against
the Blue Devils.
Wolverine attiti
By DOUG HELLER
Associate Sports Editor
The, score of yesterday's football game adequately re-
flected Michigan's performance. They were that good or
better.
Schizophrenia, right?
There is only one rational explanation for why the Wolver-
ines were so much improved over last week. Michigan was repre-
sented by a different team in each game.
Of course, the roster was the salne But the team found it
takes more than a bunch of talented individuals to play good
football. Each member has to put in everything he has before
anybody gets anything out of it at all.
Before the season started, during f all practice, the squad
looked sluggish. Nobody who saw any of the scrimmages could
possibly have felt that the Wolverines would have a successful
year.
The California game reinforced this feeling one hundred
per cent. No future performances will ever erase the FACT
that Michigan played a horrible football game on Sept. 21,
1968. All that is possible now is to erase the MEMORY of
that game.
During practice this past week, the Wolverines made a start
at erasing memories. Coach Bump Elliott, ostensibly concerned
with the North Carolina /heat, ran his players into the ground.
When the game started yesterday, -you better believe Michigan
was ready, r
The lines, of course, were the key to the whole game.
They always are. Against Cal it seemed the Michigan de-
fensive line was getting pushed back two yards on every
play. But yesterday the Wolverines blasted the Blue Devil
offensive line right out of the stadium and snared nearly
every runner before he could do even a little 'bit of damage.
The Michigan offensive line also did a complete turnabout.
Last week, the Bear defense spent their whole day in the Wol-

verine backfield. Against the Blue Devils, however, Ron Johnson
and Garvie Craw spent their day in the opposition's defensive
backfield while Dennis Brown, when he tried to pass, had enough I
time to count the whole crowd in the sparcely populated Wade
Stadium.
At ary rate, the holes that would have allowed two Mack
trucks to speed through axle-to-axle untouched by human hands
were no mirage. With the left side blocking of Bob Penksa, Bob
Baumgartner (or Dick Callarazzo after Baumgartner was hurt),
along with center Dave Denzin, your grandmother could have
made a first down in tough situations.
An' then there was Jim Mandich. Mandich, who has
developed into the team's top clutch receiver from his tight
end position, also had a fantastic day blocking.
On defense, the coaches used six men up front, with
Tom Stincie as the only real linebacker, and left the four
mini-defensive backs to work all by themselves on passes.
With their running game totally stopped, the Blue Devils
had to go to the air, but the six men nade quarterback
stew out of Duke's Leo Hart.
And when Hart did get his throws away, his receivers were
mostly well covered. Brian Healy, especially, stuck to his man
"like a fly on 'flypaper" according to one press box observer.
Only George Hoey's man, Marcel Courtillet, Duke's best receiver,
managed to catch more than one pass (he caught four).
The performance of this game right on top 'of the last one
brings back the question,/how good is Michigan, anyway? Craw,
Staroba, Johnson, Mandich, Imsland, Healy, Tom Curtis, Bob
Wedge, p us sophomore defensive lineman Henry Hill and Pete
Newell, all had the best or one of the best days in their careers.
And you have to iiclude "old number 70," Ralph (Sam) Huff,
the substitute linebacker who returned an interception for a
touchdown in the waning moments.
Add this to the fact that nobody had a really bad game
The conclusion is obvious. Michigan can play a very fine
game or a horrible game on a given day. How they do is up
to them.4

State,,IBrenner Muir out' Baylor, 2810
By FRED LaBOUR
Special to The Dailya
EAST LANSING - Pity poor
Pinkie Palmer. Poor Pinkie.
For Pinkie Palmer is a halfback
who plays for Baylor, the very
same Baylor that was trounced
by Michigan State 28-10 yesterday
in sunny Spartan Stadium.
(Pinkie Palmer is mentioned
specifically for one reason only,
the reason being that some fans
seem to derive a peculiar satis-
faction from hearing a mellow-
voiced fellow announcing to 64,826
people that the ball carrier was
one Pinkie Palmer. An analogy
could present itself if, say, a
Froggie LeGremlin were to join
the NBA. Understand?)
Yessir, Pinkie's ball club really
took it in the ear, while Michigan
State proved that it is a team to
be reckoned with this season. It
was the eighth straight loss for
Pinkie and his hapless friends.
The Spartans, on the other-
hand, rode to their second straight
victory on the sticky fingers of
record-setting split end Al Bren-
ner and the might of senior quar- 1
terback Bill Feraco.I
Brenner is sticky-fingered be-
cause he caught six passes for

he said that they almost "kept
