year tenure in that position, his
teams were twice State Cham-
pions, and in his last season, gave
up only six-points in ten games.
He attracted the attention of of-t

time, and served as the defensive
end coach for three years be-
fore following head coach "Bo"
Schembechler to Ann Arbor.
Originally slated to become
freshman co-ordinator, Smith took
on his present position when the
vacancy appeared. His chief prob-
lem will be to find a new center
to replace the graduating Dave,
Lenzin. He feels that "center is a
tough position to learn because
everything begins with the snap of
the ball," but is attempting to
break in Tim Killian, a linebacker
last year, at the unfamiliar posi-
tion.
The guard position does not pose
a similar problem. Several experi-
enced players are back at that
position, including Bob Baum-
gartner, who sat out last season
with an injury. Dick Caldarazzo
and Frank Titas both saw action

MacKenzie has shown a lot of
promise, giving the position excep-
tional strength.

If you are seriously thinking
of the priesthood, the ques-
tion becomes not "what" but
"who."
Who can allow you to utilize
your own innate talents?
Who is muost attuned to our
times? Who can offer the
most freedom in your work?
The answer is the Paulists.
Their goal is to meet the
needs of all God's people as
they arise in each era and
each age. The Paulist tries
to make Christ, His teach-
ings and His Church more
understandable to those he
can reach.
In our recent Renewal Chap-
ter we established the guide-
lines by which a Paulist
seminarian and priest would
operate in these changing
times. A summary of these
renewal principles is avail-
able to those who question
"whether a priest can really
be with it today."
To find out more about the
Paulist spirit, send for an
illustrated brochure and a
