SATURDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1965 THE MICHIGAN JDAIIX s c..:;: ....... ..~.UN~~ ~d PAGE SEVEN 4 'Michigan Fights To Snap Three-Year Purdue Jinx By JIM LaSOVAGE The Wolverines got a taste of Purdue's sophomore quarterback Bob Griese last year and didn't like it very much. From all indications, when Mich- igan meets him again this after- noon, the flavor won't be any better." As a junior, Griese has been running the Boilermakers at a record setting pace in attempting to lead the boys from Lafayette to their first Big Ten champion- ship and Rose Bowl. Griese has completed 66 of 95 passes for 838 yards and a no less than spectac- ular percentage of .695. He ranks third, in the nation in total of- fense with 907 yards in 136 plays from scrimmage, PURDUE Bob Hadrick (195) .......... Bob Hopp (259) ............ Charles Erlenbaugh (214) . . .

Randy Minniear (200) ...... Due to this, Purdue is sittin prettily in seventh place amon the nation's leaders with a 3-0- record. Griese has a favorite target i Bob Hadrick. Hadrick has latch ed on to 31 passes in the first fot games, putting him third in re ceiving in the nation. , He ha racked up 402 yards for a fourt place standing among receivers. But 'M' Has Hopes Taking a look on the other sid of the fence one finds that nc all is hopeless. Although halfbac Jim Detwiler is lost to the Wo] verines for the balance of tb season, Rick Sygar (although 3 pounds lighter) is an experiences runner who can replace him. Sy gar went both ways in last week' loss to MSU, but Dick Wells wi fill in at defensive safety today.

Wally Gabler is expected to get the nod as starting quarter- back against Purdue. Gabler missed the second half last week with rib injuries. However, X-rays revealed no breaks. Right end Jack Clancy, who BOB GRIESE was knocked out after a recep- Michigan Statistics tion in the third quarter last week, is healthy again. Clancy has proved an invaluable receiver this year, snagging 17 passes for 244 yards and a No. 24 rating in the national statistics. Halfback Carl Ward and full- back Dave Fisher have also recov- ered from injuries which kept them from some of last week's ac- tion, and both are expected to play. One thing will be different to- day than in either of the last two weeks' setbacks-it is Michi- gan's homecoming. Some fans will recall 1963's homecoming game, when the Northwestern Wildcats stormed into Ann Arbor with a 4-0 record and a high national ranking. The Wolverines were de- cided underdogs. Stuns Wildcats But the team fired up and handed the Wildcats a decisive 27-6 shocking, holding the visi- tors scoreless until the final min- utes of the game. While no one is expecting an easy time against Purdue, the battle is calculated to be hard and bloody, despite the fact that Michigan is a six- to 10-point un-, derdog. If Michigan is to win this after- noon's battle, it will have to im- prove its ball handling. Last week the Maize and Blue men ran their total of fumbles to 20, los- ing half of them, and three State interceptions ran the Michigan total up to eight. Purdue is the type of team that can take ad- vantage of such breaks in a hurry. The Boilermakers have lost pos- session on fumbles only six times, and have had only three passes snared by the opposition. Passing Possibilities Michigan may go to the air again, after attempting 40 passes against State. After Clancy left the game, Steve Smith took on the brunt of the receiving burden, picking off seven aerials for 110 yards. Sygar, Ward, Ernie Sharpe and Craig Kirby each latched on to two passes, as Dick Vidmer was fairly successful when he did not get bowled over by MSU's monsters. Although the defense looked sharp against State, it will have a much tougher job today. Purdue is ranked in sixth place nation- ally both in passing offense and total offense. Nevertheless, statistics mean but little when there's a grudge to settle. If Purdue looks over its shoulder it may realize how many teams are out to get it. It may soon be Purdue's turn to be spoil- ed. EAST LANSING (IP)-A com- bination of power running, some potent passing and a fancy kick- ing game makes Michigan State a slight favorite over Ohio State in a test of early Big Ten front- runners at East Lansing today. The fourth-ranked Spartans are unbeaten in four games and last week dumped Michigan, defending Big Ten and Rose Bowl champ, 24-7. Ohio State has a 2-1 record but showed its potential by coming from behind to run over Illinois 28-14, three of the touchdowns coming within eight minutes of the second quarter.

Fifteen players, including five newcomers took to the court un- der the direction of coaches Dave Strack and Jim Skala. Chief among the returnees were lettermen Cazzie Russell, Oliver Darden, John Thompson, Craig Dill, Jim Myers, John Clawson, Dan Brown, Van Tillotson, and Dennis Bankey. Marty Slobodnick and Mark Delzer round out the list of veterans. Giants' Spahn Gets Release SAN FRANCISCO (/P)-Veteran Warren Spahn, winner of more games than any other left-handed pitcher, was given an uncondi- tional release last night by the San Francisco Giants. All other clubs in the National League had waived on the 44- year-old southpaw and the Giants' action leaves him free to make his own deal for the 1966 season. The newcomers, all sophomores, were James Pitts, Gerald Peaks, Mark Fritz, and Bill Thomas. Back to begin his fourth season was head manager John Phillips. The 1965 Wolverines will be seeking their third consecutive Big Ten championship. They were 13-1 in league competition last year. Overall, the Wolverines won 24 games, losing just four. Yesterday's practice was devot- ed largely to the filming of offen- sive plays. Tom Jorgensen, fresh- man coach, served as cameraman. Quarterback Don Unverferth has added a passing threat to the Buckeye attack with 26 comple- tions for 292 yards. Steve Juday, the poised senior quarterback, directs the aerial arm for Michigan State and has hit 39 throws fmor 563 yards. The top rusher is sophomore fullback Bob Apisa of Hawaii, with a net of 285 yards. Closely fol- lowing is Clint Jones with a net of 260. Another import from Hawaii, Dick Kenney, is a crowd-pleaser with his unorthodox barefoot style of kicking. Kenney is leading scorer in the Big Ten with .28 points on eight field goals and four conversions. Roverback George Webster and end Bubba Smith lead an MSU defense that held Michigan to mi- nus 39 yards rushing. by a 17-14 margin, as quarterback Bob Griese, an All-America can- didate, riddled its defense with 20 * * * . Hoosiers Face Illni In another game, battered In- diana faces Illinois at Champaign JOHN HANKINSON in a contest where both teams are seeking their first conference win. Indiana was drubbed, 42-18, by Minnesota last week, while Illi- nois took its second straight beat- ing after whomping Southern Methodist, 42-0, losing this time In that game, Illinois jumped off to Ohio State by a 28-14 margin. to a 7-0 lead but a second-quarter spurt by the Buckeyes and their all running back Tom Barrington put the game out of reach. Badgers and 'Cats Wisconsin, whose lone confer- ence game was a 16-13 triumph over Iowa, meets Northwestern, which also touts a 1-0 league mark, having downed Indiana 20- 0. Northwestern, which is rated a ,10-point favorite, favors the run- ning game-in last week's 15-7 vie- tory over Oregon State it gained 231 yards rushing but only 35 passing, on two completions in 12 attempts. Wisconsin, on the other hand is expected to rely heavily on a passing attack led by Chuck Burt, who has 60 completions, despite being held to 12 for 31 in last week's 37-0 loss to Nebraska. passes good for 216 yards. Iowa managed to get 180 yards in the air but was held to a total of 35 yards on the ground. MEXICO CI'tY (M)-The sparse United States contingent failed to win a first place in opening day track and field competition yes- terday in the Little Olympics, and suffered a major disappointment when Tommy Farrell failed to qualify in the 800-meter run. The best U.S. showing was a second-place finish by Ron Laird of Pomona, Calif., in the 20,000- meter walk. Laird finished in 1 hour, 45 minutes, 7 seconds, trail- ing East Germany's Hans Reiman, who was timed in 1:41:46. Approximately 250 competitors from 15,countries are taking part in the games, being held to deter- mine of Mexico City's 1%-mile altitude has an adverse effect on athletes. There are almost as many doctors attending as there are athletes. Performances, generally, were well off Olympic standards, but the class of athletes must be con- sidered. The men broke five Mexi- can records and matched another, 10.3 by Claude Piquemal of France in the 100rmeter dash. That com- pares with the 10 flat winning effort by Bob Hayes in the 1964 Olympics. The United States, which has only eight men competing in track and field, had no entrants in the 100 meters, nor in any of the events in which Mexican records were set, with the exception of the 20,000-meter walk.
