PAGE EIGHT THE MICHIGAN DAILY TUESDAY, OCTOBER 5. 1965 PAGE EIGHT TIlE MICHIGAN DAILY TUESAY. OCTOBER 5 1 , A U xy LLOYD GRAFF The Impend ing Trade Of Milton Plum There's a little prophet in each of us. We all feel the urge to exhibit the Amos, Nehemiah, and Isaiah proclivities socked away in. our frontal lobes. And this is my moment to reveal the future as I see it. Step right up and get your predictions, fresh and hot. This Saturday Michigan will slaughter Michigan State 6-3, and Dick Kenney will step on a tack. Earl Battey will confess that he has a sore arm after Maury Wills steals seven bases in the first two 'games of the World Series. After the Twins are shut out in four straight, Sam Mele will say, "the Dodgers have pretty fair pitching, but we were just in a slump." Someone will say Jim ' Brown is over the hill and the next week Brown will ramble for 200 yards. The Detroit Lions will trade Milt Plum for the seventeenth draft choice of the San Francisco 49ers. After watching Plum in practice, the 49ers'will say they were rooked. They will be correct. John Lindsay will become Mayor of New York City and wish Rockefeller had the job. The Jews will be vindicated as Christ-killers after 2000 years to the dismay of the Mohammedans, and hardly a soul will really care. Bill Russell will claim his knees are shot and still block eight shots a game. The Detroit Pistons will lose more games than the New York Knicks and will fire Dave Debusscher as coach. Reggie Harding will become the next Piston head. He will appoint Joe Don Looney to enforce discipline. Robert McNamara will become President of the University after Richard Nixon declines. In thirteen years the Atlanta Braves will move to Tijuana to capitalize on a, big TV deal. Lew Alcindor will be good-very good-but not as great as 'Wilt Chamberlain. UCLA coach John Wooten will be hung in effigy if his team loses more than two games a year for the next four years. Vinegar Bend Mizell, Art Houtemann, Ransom Jackson, Ty Cline, Manny Mota, Eddie Brinkman, Don Zimmer, and Mildred Douglas will not be admitted to the Cooperstown Hall of Fame. Next year, after Bob Hadrick graduates, everybody will see that Bob Griese was an overrated quarterback. President Johnson will invite Mao Tse Tung, Ho Chi Minh, General Westinoreland, Johnny Carson, Willie Mays, Sam Huff, Herman Kahn, and Pogo down to the ranch for a barbecue, where they'll "reason out" Viet Nam. A social psychologist will show a correlation between racial discrimination and bad breath. A competing psychologist will then get a huge grant to show that very few neurotics smoke pipes. He will then go to work for Kay Woodie. And some gullible person will take me seriously and write a nasty letter about being such a wiseoff cynic when I'm really just a romantic poet turned sportswriter because there's nothing roman- ticker than sports around. BASEBALL BRIEFS: Drysdale To Start; Monbo Traded Buntin Writes Name; Ends Long Holdout By The Associated Press The Los Angeles Dodgers, forced to pass over Sandy Koufax, have tapped Don Drysdale to pitch the opening game of the World Series against fearless Jim Grant of the Minnesota Twins at Metropolitan Stadium Wednesday. Drysdale, a 23-game winner and the right-handed half of the Dodgers' ace pitching pair, got the call because Wednesday is Yom Kippur, the most solemn Jewish holy day. Kouf ax, who is Jewish, will remain out of action. Thief The key to the Dodgers' speed- centered attack is shortstop Maury Wills, who stole 94 bases this sea- son, and it is more than likely that he will wind up in a duel with his opposite number at shortstop, the Twins' Zoilo Versalles. Ver- salles has been a major factor for Minnesota, which this year, used speed to complement their explo- sive attack. He has stolen 26 bases and is one of six Twins with 16 or more homers. The Dodgers can boast only two players with as many as a dozen, but pitching gives them an edge in the ratings. The Dodgers are 13-10 favorites to beat the Twins in the Series. Monbouquette to Detroit In Detroit, the Boston Red Sox traded pitcher Bill Monbouquette to the Tigers for outfielder George Thomas and infielder George Smith last night. The deal was the first for the Sox since Mike Higgins was fired as general manager Sept. 16. Bos- ton Manager Billy Herman prom- ised several more. He said Mon- bouquette was tradedebecause the Red Sox plan to accent youth next year. Monbouquette won 10 games and lost 18 for the Red Sox, who finished ninth in the American League. The 29-year-old right- hander compiled a .3.69 earned run average in 228%3 innings. Sisler Fired Elsewhere, Dick Sisler was fired yesterday as manager of the Cin- cinnati Reds, apparently because of the club's failure to win the National League pennant. No successor was named. The Reds, who were pennant contenders a week before the sea- son ended, finished in fourth place, eight games behind the Dodgers. Sisler, 45, former major league star, -'blasted the Reds pitching for its failure to come up to expectations. "The pitching just wasn't there, and believe me, * DETROIT {RP)-Former Wolver- ine standout Bill Buntin has end- ed his prolonged holdout and signed a two-year, reported $30,- 000 contract with the Detroit Pis- tons of the National Basketball Association. The 67"" all Big Ten center had differed with the Detroit front office for three weeks, before com- ing to terms. Originally he had asked $30,000 for a one year con- tract. Neither Buntin nor his lawyer were available for comment on the contract. Detroit Coach Dave De- Busschere indicated that Buntin would be pressed into service im- mediately, as the Pistons near the conclusion of their exhibition schedule. The 230-pound Buntin led the Michigan basketball team to two consecutive Big Ten champion- ships. He averaged 20.1 points per game last season, and was the Pistons' first draft choice last May.
