As usual, Mollenkopf has p u t together another contender for the conference title, but this year's team seems free from the pressure which has attended his past squads. With Ohio State and Indiana foremost in the pre-sea- son speculation, the Boilermakers have basked in relative anonymity in contrast to last year's squad, which was picked as tops in the nation in most preseason polls. HOWEVER, WITH THREE non- conference victories under i t s belt, Purdue again enters its opening conference game as a1 conference threat.

By JOHN STROPS Freedom of the press triumph- ed once again yesterday as t h e Daily Libels slandered the u a c muggers in their annual gridiron! classic -- their 79th s t r a i g h t triumph over the bourgeois re- visionist muggers. In an emergency meeting 1 a s t night, the Daily senior editors vot- ed 10-0 to comply with a request by the blubbering muggers and not print the score of yesterday's game, At press time, however, all the senior editors were totally in- ebriated so the merciless under- staff decided to run the score anyway. After compiling the game statistics using the Daily's unique form of scoring, the final score was announced as 41-14. When asked why the Libel's total was so low, Coach Buster (or was it Belter) Block replied, "When those uac players started' to cry during half-time I j u s t didn't have the heart to destroy them any worse." Play started out quickly in the first quarter as the Libels took the" opening kickoff in their endzone and promptly moved the ball to their own two. Once the Libels got down to business, however, they made quick work of demonstrating their overkill potential. Using the fly- ing wedge developed during the LS&A building takeover, they moved down the field with Loath- some Landsman plunging the final yard for the score. To avoid being accused of run- ning up the score, the Libels didn't bother trying for the point after. "We felt that if we ran the score up too much, uac would bring Merv Griffin to the campus next time instead of Johnny Car- son," D. T. Cusumano commented. The muggers took the Daily kickoff and somehow managed to make it back to their own ten. f This was as far as they g o t, bumbling muggers for a five yard to play despite the constant flow loss. Then Foxy Forrester, using of blood from his twisted probos- a trick move he practiced during cis. When questioned in the hos- the ROTC demonstrations, broke pital after the game, he reported through the line to trap the uac his condition as "critical but im- quarterback, Horrendous Harris, proving with every beer." dlaity sports NIGHT EDITOR: BILL DINNER satisfactorily, as opponents h a v e racked up 84 points thus far this season. Mollenkopf has a real problem. The defense against rushing is fairly strong, as they proved against Notre Dame. Only one runner has made it to the Boiler- maker goal-line via the overland route thus far this season. The front four, which averages over 230 pounds and includes two all Big Ten coaches, Billy McCoy and Bill Yanchar, is the primary rea- son. HOWEVER, the pass defense has not measured up to contend- ing standards, and is the a r e a where Michigan is most likely to strike successfully. Mollenkopf will try to correct the situation by placing the bur- den of the rushing defense on his big four. As he says, "we're go- ing to drop back defenders a lot of the time depending on the situation." In this way, Purdue seems to be willing to give up small yardage up the middle in exchange for preventing long-gain pass plays. Purdue will be considerably aided in their task if Michigan rushing leader Glenn Doughty is unable to perform up to capa- city because of the leg he injured last Saturday. Doughty is listed as a starter for the game, but his possible effectiveness is s t ill questionable. The rest of the Michigan first squad is ready, while Purdue, ex- cept for "a lot of bruises," ac- cording to Mollenkopf, is in per- fect physical condition.

Mad Dog O'Dono- hue, ace athlete, complained, "The biggest drawback was that the field was only 80 yards long so I couldn't run up my total yardage. I wanted to have at least five 100 yard runs. The way it was I only gained 300 yards in the first half. Another problem was that the muggers were t o o cowardly to participate in o u r usual after game rumble."
