Manning completed 33 passes in

have lost two straight games% by

factors.

Southern California. feature a
strong running game and their
usual fine defense. The Tigers.
coining off of their victory over
Michigan last week. will be led by
quarterback Terry McMillan and
halfback Joe Moore. Missouri, one
of the Top Ten in this week's polls,
will be fighting to hold on to their
position.
ARKANSAS, a Southwest Con-

ference power, plays Baylor in one
of the day's biggest mismatches.
The Razorbacks, unbeaten in
three games, have yet to give up a
touchdown. Bill Montgomery is a
pinpoint passer and excellent run-
ner, and will guide the attack. Bill
Burnett will carry the ball from
the tailback spot., and Chock Dicus
will be on the receiving end of
Montgomery's passes.

ing of the World Series.
"So what's the big deal?" quip-
ped Allan Diskin, operator of hack
No. 7033, taking a delegation of
New Yorkers to Baltimore Sta-
dium for the final tune-up of the:
Mets and Orioles.
"Nobody here buys the Mets'
miracle stuff," said the hackie.
"Or cares much. This a football
town-a Colts town."
None of them takes the Mets
very seriously, not even the
Orioles.
"If somebody upstairs is guid-
ing them, as we're told," said Earl
Weaver, the little, cherub-faced
skipper of the Orioles, "then all I
can say is he is guiding us better.
We won 109 to their 100."
Friank Robinson, Baltimore's ag-
gressive team leader, agreed.
"They're telling us that the
a

ball playoffs, and that all things'
go in threes," Robinson said.
"There's also a saying 'third time
is charm,'"
"We respect the Mets, sure, but
they don't worry us. We know we
can beat them."
Tom Seaver will lead the amaz-
ing Mets into their first World'
Series game today against Mike
Cuellar, the left-handed ace of
the favored Orioles.
Seaver. the majors' top winner
with a 25-7 record, is the right-
hander from Southern California
who was hit hard by the Braves
in last week's playoff opener, but
got the victory after giving way
for pinch hitter, J. C. Martin. At
the age of 24, Seaver is being
called another Robin Roberts with
a great future ahead of him.
Cuellar, a cagy 32-year-old

Cuban who now makes his home
in Puerto Rico, is a master of the
screwball, a pitch that breaks
away from right-handed batters.
Acquired from the Houston As-
tros of the National League in a
trade for Curt Blefary last De-
cember, Cuellar had a 23-11 reg-
ular season record.
He s t a r t e d the American
League playoff series against
Minnesota and went nine innings
in the first game, eventually won
by relief pitcher Dick Hall in 12
innings, 4-3.
A sellout crowd of some 52,000
is expected to watch the opener
of the best-of-seven series in
warm sunshine at Memorial Sta-
dium. Game time is 1 p.m., EDT,
with network radio and television
coverage by the National Broad-
casting Company.
Although the American League
champion Orioles own an impres-
sive edge in such statistical de-
partments as home runs, batging
average and even pitching, there
is a strong tide of sentiment for
the underdog Mets who came from
ninth place in 1968 to win their
first National League pennant
this season. According to the legal
gamblers in Las Vegas, the Orioles
are 8-5 favorites.
Gil Hodges followed through as
announced and named his right-
handed batting order which in-
cludes Ron Swoboda in right
field, Donn Clendenon on first
base, Al Weis at second base and
the veteran Ed Charles at third
base. That meant benching such

left-handers as Art Shamsky, Ed
Kranepool, Ken Boswell and
Wayne Garrett who batted a col-
lective .380 in the three-game
playoff sweep over Atlanta.
Baltimore's big power is right-
handed except fogr Powell who hit
37 homers and knocked in 121
runs. Frank Robinson, 32 homers
and 100 rbis, Brooks Robinson, 23
homers, 83 rbis, and Paul Blair,
26 homers, 76 rbis, all are right-
handed batters.
Tommie Agee, the leadoff bat-
ter, is the only Met with over 20
homers. 26. Clendenon is next
with 16 and he hitd four of them
at Montreal before joining New
York June 15. Despite their slug-
ging against the Braves,.they are
known as a scratch and scramble
club.
In tomorrow's second game, it
figures to be Jerry Koosman for
the Mets against Dave McNally,
in a southpaw battle. When the
scene shifts to New York after
Monday's day off, Gary Gentry is
likely to open for the Mets Tues-
day against Jim Palmer.
The fourth and fifth games also
are scheduled for New York on
Wednesday and Thursday, and if
necessary, the sixth and seventh
games will be played in Baltimore
next Saturday and Sunday. All
games will start at 1 p.m., except
for the Sunday games at Balti-
more, which begin at 2 p.m.

Rugby and soccer squads
set for afternoon games

By NORM SCHERR
The Michigan Soccer Club hosts
the University of Kentucky today
at 4:30 at Wines Field, following
the Michigan-Purdue football.
game. The Michigan footmen, 1-1-
1 for the season so far, are seek-
ing their first victory with Ken-
tucky, having tied twice in prev-
ious competition. Last year, at
Lexington, the two teams fought
a tough defensive duel, resulting
in a shutout for both sides.
The well-drilled Kentucky squad
will feature a slower, intricate
style of play, as compared to the
harder hitting contact play of the
Michigan Club. With the empha-
sis on tighter defense, Michigan
lineup will consist of four f o r -
wards, three halfbacks, three full-
backs, and goalie. This arrange-
ment allows a varied offense, and
at the same time provides seven
men for defense.
BECAUSE OF the international
character of the team, Michigan's
only a third of which a'e from the
United States, position strategy
and play coordination have been
somewhat difficult. Each player
has developed in his own national
style, and now has had to unlearn
and relearn. to function as a team
member.
The past three games have unit-
ed the team, and the outlook for
victory over Kentucky seems good.

The Detroit Cobras rugby club
will invade nearly impossible
grounds Saturday when they meet
the unbeaten Michigan Blues, who
once again put their four game
winning streak on the line.
The Cobras are a new club
but they are very experienced.
Head Coach Dr. John Robson
summed up the opposition this
way. "The Detroit club is a vary
representative one. Their captain,
Randall Peart, is probably their
best player. He's played a lot of
ball in England."
PART OF THE REASON for
the ruggers success must be given
to the coaching staff. Dr. J o h n
,Robson and student President
Henry Schiller are very exacting
in their coaching methods.
The instruction sessions w e r e
very informative as well as an
indication of the discipline shown
on the team.
Dr. Robson has played the game
for nearly 22 years, participating
in Eastern Africa and the British
Isles.
Robson was asked about the
possibility of rugby becoming a
varsity sport but he declared,
"Rugby is fine as a club sport.
Putting in the varsity restrictions
would mean a lot of our b o y s
would not be allowed to play."
There are many graduate stu-
dents which make up the team.
