Which is about as far as either Michigan's Bump Elliott or Cali- fornia's Ray Willsey would com- mit themselves concerning the possible outcome of today's foot- ball game between the two schools. The Wolverines' 1965 home sea- son gets underway at 1:30 this afternoon in massive Michigan We hope them." that we are prepared forI Praises Blue Willsey praised the Wolverines effusively but was nebulous as to estimating how well he felt his team would fare. "We scouted Michigan and know that they have a very fine football team. Though they do not have-the incentive of a Rose Bowl trip, they display a lot of enthusiasm. As far as spec- ulating on the type of game it will lighted the day with touchdown runs of 94, 70, 86, and eight yards, though he was almost tackled on the third run by an over exuber- ant off-duty policeman who raced on to the field and narrowly miss- ed the fleet-footed All-American.- Fourteen years ago in the 1951 Rose Bowl game Michigan won a 14-6 decision over California, as Don Dufek, now a Wolverine coach, sparked the attack. Injuries Cut 'M' A potential key factor in today's contest is injuries. As expected, Jim Detwiler and Barry Dehlin of the Wolverines will see no action. Replacing Detwiler at halfback will be Rick Sygar, who in turn is replaced at safety by Mike Bass. Dennis Flanagan will take over for Dehlin at the left guard spot on the defensive line. Paul Johnson, defensive tackle who was ailing earlier in the week, is fit and will start next 'to Flanagan. On the California side of the training table are three players. Fullback Ron Minamide, suffering from the flu, is questionable, while linebacker Paul Hoeber and of- fensive tackle John Rusev are definite bench-warmers. If Min- amide doesn't play, he will be re- placed by 205 pound Frank Lynch, a junior transfer student. The only other change in the .Wolverine alignment is signifi- cant in that it will, for the first time, put a player of Canadian descent in the Michigan starting line-up. Soph Tom 'Pullen takes over for a fellow .sophomore, Rocky Rosema, at the left defen- sive end position. Encylopedic Wally Weber point- ed to the magnitude of Pullen's ethnic -achievement. And a state- from from the loquacious Weber is as reliable an affadavit as any fact would ever need. California features a "Slot T" offense which coach Willsey brief- ly explained. "One end is split, approximately ten yards from tackle, and the halfback lines up between these two men, but be- hind the line." Other players re- tain standard spots. * *A*' A fifth of Saturday's stadium throng will be youngsters. Fifteen thousand high school bandsmen have invaded Ann Arbor for "Band Day," an annual feature of the opening Saturday. Youth- ful drum majors and twirlers will perform before the game, and the main groups will ooze on to the field for a colorful and sometimes synchronized halftime show. The game also is the 1965 de- but of William Revelli's heralded Marching Band, which hopes to be heard above the high school: din. One figure familiar to Wolver- ine fans in recent years will be absent from the field this after- noon. No, not more injuries. Drum Major William McCann, a March- ing Band fixture for five years is no longer associated with the group. McCann's replacements are Lynn Cooper, from Ypsilanti, and Jack Smith, from Ann Arbor.

Michigan is Bears Revisited This afternoon's football game will be rebroadcast to- night on Detroit's Channel 50, WKBD. The replay will begin at 11 p.m. attempting to put one and one together and finish the afternoon with a 2-0 in pre-conference play. The Wolverines humbled accli- mated North Carolina 31-24 last Saturday. Both Elliott and Willsey com- mented that they expected "a very tough game," but neither would make any predictions. El- liott scoffed at the handicapper's judgments that have made Mich- igan a 20 point favorite. "That's foolish," he said, "and I'm sure it won't affect our players. Cali- fornia is a much better ball club than last week's score indicated. 7X35 CF COATED C.BI31 NOCpULAR 'Cimplete with Genuine Leather Case when you figure on a low scoring game, there'll be 50 points scored.
