he was feeling very "relaxed." He
had no far flung goals, but only
"To play and do my best."
It sounded like the Ron Johnson
of old.
Sunday, the rookie from Michi-
gan made his debut with the
Browns. He was running with a
second-year man, Reece Morrison,
as Leroy Kelly had hurt his leg.
Johnson ripped the Philadelphia
defense to shreds, racking up 118
yards and two touchdowns in 17
carries. His second score came on
a 48 yard run. It looked like the
Ron Johnson of old.
He commented after the game.
"The blocking was great all
day, and when it's like that the
running is easy. Leroy (Kelly) was
a big help. We talked on the side-
lines. He would ask what the de-
fense was doing and then make
several suggestions. Some of them
worked the first time I tried them.
For instance on the long touch-
down run of 48 yards, he suggested
I try to get outside as quickly as
possible and forget faking or fi-
nessing it."
Obviously, Johnson hasn't had
much trouble adjusting to the
pros. Much has changed around
him, but he retains the same sim-
ple philosophy, to do his best. That
one thing remains constant. His
opponents may be bigger, strong-
er, and faster t h a n his college
counterparts were, but Ron John-

6-1 and Barb Veenhoven of Kala-
mazoo 6-4, 6-4.
Lillian Meklir of Michigan ad-
vanced to the semis with a three
set victory over Sue Cutting of
Alma College and a two set win
over Pat Brown of Bowling Green
State University before losing to
Engle 7-5, 6-1.
Other Michigan representatives
were Nancy Levy who bowed in
the first round to Engle, a n d
Jackie Boney who was defeated
by Pat Deitrich of Kent S t a t e
University.
Michigan had to settle for
second place in the doubles also
as Engle teamed with Barb Veen-
hoven to upset Bezdek and Mek-
lir 6-3, 6-2 in the finals. Joyce
and Lillian eliminated teams from
the University of Illinois and Kent
State University before their de-
feat.
The University of Michigan
Soccer Club will journey to Oak-
land Saturday to f ace Oakland
University for its second game of
the season. In its only other en-
counter of the season, the squad
lost its home opener to Northern
Illinois 5-1.
The game was plagued by the
poor condition of Wines Field,
wich seems to be a common phe-
nomenon in Ann Arbor.
The team looks forward to an-
other good year. finishing Ia s t
season with a 7-1-1 record, and a
club record of holding its oppon-
ents scoreless in six contests. This
year's team is also attempting to
gain varsity status from the ath-
letic department.
Returning f r o m last year's
squad are forwards Les Feldman,
co-captain. and Mark King. The
defense will o n c e again be the
strongest point in the booter's fa-
vor. Led by co-captain Wiley Liv-
invston. the defense will t r y to
better last year's feat. Joining
Wiley will be Al Reuther. To m
Smith. Bob Peters, and Charley
Patamaxang.
Anyone interested in joining the
team should contact the IM Build-
ing, or Les Feldman, 769-3321.

No computer stamps out program bugs like RCAs Octoputer.
It boosts programming efficiency up to 40%.
We Don't Understand You-
But We Do Understand Your
Reading Problem
And that problem is simply that there is just too darn much to read in order to
keep up with your homework and what is happening today?
What can you do about it? Just this. Learn to read faster with greater compre.
hension and recall.
Where can you learn this amazing skill. Right here, this summer at the world
famous Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics Institution.
Who has taken the course? More than 400,000 people from all walks of life,
including the staff of the late President Kennedy, and his brother Senator Ed-
ward Kennedy.
Can you do it? Of course you can. In fact, we offer you a money back guar-
antee if you do not at least triple your reading rate with equal or better com-
prehension.

comprehension.
Programming is already one-third
of computer costs, and going up
faster than any other cost in
the industry.
A lot of that money is eaten up
by bugs-mistakes in programs.
With usual methods, programmers
don't know of mistakes until
long after a program is written.
They may have to wait days for a
test run.
RCA's Spectra 70/46, the
Octoputer, takes a whole new
approach based on time
sharing.
It substitutes a computer
terminal for pencil and paper
and talks to the programmer
as he writes the program,
pointing out mistakes as they
are made.
The Octoputer is the only
computer available today that
has this capability. It's as
much as 40% faster. And it
works on IBM360 and other
computer programs as well as
our own.
Costs go down. Programs get
