When 22 mnen trot onto the
field today to play what is
called the Michigan - Vander-
bilt football game, no one will
be looking at them.
True, there will be 70.000 plus
maniac football fans in Michigan
Stadium surrounding theta, but'
they won't be looking at the play-
ers. Nor the coaches. Nor the band.
Nor the mdale cheerleaders.
The Michigan-Vanderbilt game
at Ann Arbor begins at 1:30
and will be carried over radio
stations W114, 950 AM1; W~PAG,
1050 AM1I; WAAM, 1600 AM;,
and WUOM1, 91.7 F31
They will be looking at the Rug.
The Rug is1" high, 88,285
square feet in area and the most
expensive wall-to-wall carpeting
job ever designed in Michigan.
The Rug is the ingenious inven-
tion of some highly-paid chemist'
of the Minnesota Mining and
Manufacturing Company and is
called Tartan Turf. And it works.
The Michigan football team has
conducted its entire fall practice'

But beauty isn't everything and
we have to go to Vanderbilt head '
coach Bill Pace for a testimonial. i s p o r t
"I've never coached a team on
artifical turf, but I'm all for' this NIGHT EDITOR:
one." Pace said yesterday after his
team gamboled about The Rug ERIC SIEGEL
during a short practice. *"This is
the team's fiirst experience on Tar-
tan Turf and the boys told me they of those 70,000 critical onlookers,
had no trouble making cuts on it." has had the minor complication
For Pace, cuts are important, as! of a shoulder' separation to con-

slots while Christie Hauck takes
the other. When asked why he
shifted Hauck, a two-year starter
at. the monster position, to his
present r'ole, Pace replied, "No
halfback."
But if Paces defensive crew'
liked The Rug, his offensive pla-
toon will fall in love with it. Both
Pace and Michigan coach Bo
Schembechler have concurred that
the "quickness" of the Tartan sur-
face will give the edge to the of-
ftenses.
Schernbechler hopes to gain that
edge with an unproven quarter-
back, an untes ted wvingback, and a$
fullback that earned his keep help-
