The chase ended when Mielke flattened him on the 10. ("He can run but he can't hide.") Illini Stopped Although Custardo's subsequent field goal attempt was good, the Illini had been stopped . . . per- manently. Michigan wasted no time roar- ing back.

And then he coolly flipped a floater to Rick Sygar, who seemed all alone on the other side of the field. Not quite! . When defensive end Dick Tate saw that 'pass coming, along with everyone else in the place, he must 94 have started drooling. He made a bee-line for Sygar, who was inno- cently concentrating on a ball which seemed to be taking a slow boat on the local line. The pass was like the Wells Fargo .. . com- ing up in stages. After a pair of runs and another pass to Clancy brought the ball to Illinois' 46, Gabler had to do some scrambling of hiso wn. But while he was scrambling he was look- ing. . . and Steve Smith was wait- ing, very alone. Carl Ward was downfield with Dickie Kee, the only defender on Smith's route, having a staring contest while waiting for the Blue end's arrival. At the last second Ward couldn't get enough body inC Kee's way, and Smith was knock- ed off balance and out of bounds on the 15 with a 31-yard gain. Gabler Fake On the next play Gabler roll- ed right and faked the defensive end so flatfooted that the poor guy seemed to move dazedly out' of the way by request. From the seven, Ward seemed to go through a tackle hole almost before the snap to make it first and 10 on the one. Then the halfback went up high and away again for his second score of the day. At this point some fellow they called "Rootie Kazoo" started to play songs in place of Michigan's Marching Band from up in the cloud-covered part of the grand- stands. Besides The Victors and the Illinois Fight Song, he poured' r> X, -XI N i The Blue put on the finishing touches with a 70-yard drive to open the second half. Steve Smith fell on a squiggler of a kick-off at the 30. Sweep Wide Gabler started off with a pow- er sweep to the right for 13 yards and Ward and Sygar spent four plays reaching Illinois' 32. Fish- er finally got into the action at this point, and cracked up the middle for five more. After Gabler had to sneak to the 21 on a fourth and one sit- uation, Ernie Sharpe, replacing Ward for the play, ripped through left tackle to the 13 and then the 10. Gabler followed with a left-right fake to Fisher and hand-off to Sygar, but two-fum- ble recoveries later found himself on the four with another fourth down and goal to go setting. Gabler was equal to it. After another fake to his fullback going strong, he rolled left and faked a lateral to Ward. This one was so well timed that a defending end was left with his eyes popping as he searched for the pigskin. The quaterback then slid through the vacated end spot for the final score of the afternoon. Extra Point On the extra point attempt the hike was out of anyone's range and not even a Sygar to Ward pass could get results, although at this point many in the stands were expecting Ward to go over and not two, but six points for it. It was defense the rest of the way, with plenty of experience for second-stringers on offense. The defense was good. Scene like Mielke droping Cus- tardo for a loss were not uncom- mon, as the Illinois QB was forced to the air more often than was de- sireable to keep any balance in his attack. Best Game Frank Nunley had one of his finest games. Typical of some of his individual efforts was a tackle of Custardo on a power sweep where he had to jump over two blockers to get to him.

An dthen, while three men were making a beautiful stop on Fisher off tackle, Ward took a pitch down to the 11 and three plays later took a swan dive to the two-foot line, four inches short of a first down. With a fourth and what was left, Michigan went for it . FRANK NUNLEY rains came (from the picture of the same name) and Michigan called time. Illini Dissolve You have never seen a huge orange "Block I" dissolve into splotches of green, white and black so fast in your life. Mich- igan's "Block M" would drown' first! (Right?!) With action resumed, the Wol verin es immediately got called for clipping, but countered with a pass to a wide open Sygar on the seven. After Ward had dribbled wide right for no gain, Michigan was stopped and Sygar split the uprights with 15 seconds left in -Daly-Jim Graff RICK SYGAR (18) DISPLAYS his offensive style that has earned him the right to go both ways since the injury to Jim Detwiler. Don Bailey (55), Charlie Kines (78), and Henry Hanna, (90) opened up this hole for Sygar, while a fake from Wally Gabler to Dave Fisher drew the attention of Illinois linebacker Bill Harper (33) long enough for Sygar to rush through for a sizable gain.
