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- ;s W. SHANHOUSE SONS INC. belts the bush jacket. With big pockets. Leather-like buttons.

The University of Michigan women's tennis team won its way to the finals in both singles and doubles competition last week in the Western Tennis Association Collegiate tournament held at Kalamazoo College. Michigan's top-seeded singles entrant, Joyce Bezdek, moved eas- ily through the aarly rounds but fell in the finals to Karen Engle of Kalamazoo College 6-1, 6-1. Before her loss Joyce defeated Laura Worth of Alma College 6-0, Join The Daily Sports Staff 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. 1969 SOCCEI SCHEDULE Sept. 13 N. Illinois sept.

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 rnnP facter And oii ncr fi-wor The Octoputer concentrates on remote computing because that's where the industry is going.
