THE MICHIGAN DAILY FRIDAY, OVE31BER I2, 1965 THE MICHIGAN DAILY FRIDAYS NOVEMBER 12, 1965 LLOYD GRAFF SPORT SHORTS: Red Wings Rally To Tie Masochism, Sadism And Sibling Rivalry After reading Eric Erickson explain Luther's rebellion against the Catholic Church in terms of an anal complex it occurred to -me that if something as perplexing as the Reformation could be sim- plified into Freudian lingo an elementary sport like football might too. Essentially football can be viewed as a desperate quest to return to the womb which is represented by the endzone. This is reflected in the way fullbacks plunge over for touchdowns, normally landing in a definite prenatal position on the endzone turf. The endzone itself is quiet, tranquil territory which provides a refuge from the brutal tackling elsewhere on the field. The quarterback who runs most of the action must be considered a father figure. His teammates obey him, but secretly are jealous of his role. The opposition vents its sadism on the quarterback who must often ."eat the football," a form of oral regressiveness. When a quarterback eats the ball the coach, representing the superego along with the screaming fans, will often pat the signal caller on the rear (anal regressive) and assure him that he'll do, better next time. This is a clear sublimation, for the coach reallyf loathes the back because he frustrated the vicarious pleasure he gets from watching those he taught perform well. The Kickoff Trauma A football game begins with an explosion-the kickoff. Two teams collide with the result being a birth trauma for the players and spectators. Occasionally, this first play will determine the; future course of the game. And generally it is the initial quarter that sets the tone of the entire contest. Games are won and lost by the blocking in the offensive line- a masochistic undertaking if ever there was one. A blocker inflicts pain on, himself, complimenting the sadistic urges of the defensive line. It is this complimentary nature that makes football. such a wonderful family sport. Everybody on the field has a purpose, a clear goal. The fan can identify with the tackler, the tackled, the bench'warmer, the coach, even the referee. ' Naturally there is aberrant behavior on the field. Occasionally one sees a right halfback giggle with glee when his counterpart on the left side gets mangled byfa 300-pound guard. This is a blatant case of sibling rivalry. When the quarterback's protection is trampled and he scrambles for shelter from the mob we see the genesis of paranoia. If the pocket collapses the passer will try fewer and fewer passes, choosing to make quick handoffs and then running for cover. At halftime with a team trailing by twenty points the coach tries to produce conversion reactions in his players. A type of faith healing, he attempts to transform the lethargic egos before him into snarling ids. , And what type of esoteric brainwashing technique does he use in the locker room to elicit the killer in them? By The Associated Press DETROIT - The Detroit Red Wings spotted the New York Rangers two first period goals, then roared back to gain a 3-3 tie in the only National Hockey League game played last night. Bruce MacGreggr's goal at 8:09 of the third period tied the score and snapped the Red Wings' two- game losing streak. New York, which extended its unbeaten streak to six games, got first period markers from Bob Nevin and Harry Howell and a second period goal from Don Marshall. One Each Detroit scored a goal in each period, with Paul Henderson net- ting the first one with less than two minutes remaining in the first period and Gordie Howe scoring in the final minute of the second period. Another basket by Walker, who Larry Quinn 8.9. scored 23 points, gave the 76ers the lead midway in the second period. They built the margin to 79-67 midway in the third period. Rallying Then the Warriors rallied de- spite the absence of pivotman Nate Thurmon who had five per- sonal fouls at this point. Celts Win, Lead East BOSTON - Sam Jones' marks- manship carried the Boston Celtics to an 87-83 victory over the St. Louis Hawks last night, in a bruis- ing defensive battle that capped a National Basketball Association doubleheader. Jones scored 30 points as the Celtics came -from behind in the final period to win their fifth straight game and take possession of first place in the Eastern Divi- sion. High Bar: John Cashman 8.1.

NORFOLK, Va.-Football Coach Alex Bell of Villanova may be crying on the inside this season, but he's laughing on the outside. Interviewed by the Norfolk. Ledger-Star, here is what Bell had to say : "Are you disappointed in your 1-6 record?" "Truthfully, I didn't anticipate a good team." "How good is the defense?" "It can't stop anybody." "How good is the running game?" "We don't run too good." "And the passing game?" "We can't throw too good." "Who is your leading ball- carrier?" "We don't have one.; "When did things start to gox bad for Villanova?" "It started in spring practice, when we couldn't stop each other." .1 aI ij } AUSTIN DIAMOND 1209 S. University 663-7151 By the author of " Rally Round the Flag, Boys!'- "Dobe Gllis," etc.) YOU, TOO, CAN BE INFERIOR The second gravest problem confronting college students today is inferiority feelings. (The first gravest problem is, of course, the recent outbreak of moult among sorority house canaries.) Let us today look into the causes of infe- riority feelings and their possible cures. Psychologists divide inferiority feelings into three princi- pal categories: 1. Physical inferiority. 2. Mental inferiority. 3. Financial inferiority. (A few say there is also a fourth category: ichthyological inferiority-a feeling that other people have prettier fish- but I believe this is common only along the coasts and in the Great Lakes area.) Let us start with the feeling of physical inferiority, per- haps the easiest to understand. Naturally we are inclined to feel inferior to the brawny football captain or the beauti- ful homecoming queen. But we should not. Look at all the people, neither brawny nor beautiful, who have made their marks in the world. Look at Napoleon. Look at Socrates. Look at Caesar. Look at Lassie. What I mean is you can't always tell what's inside a package by looking at the outside. (Sometimes, of course, ypu can. Take Personna Stainless Steel Blades, for exam- ple. Just one glance at that jolly blue and white package- so bright and pert, so neat but not gaudy-and you know it hasto contain blades of absolute perfection. And you are i ,, 1 I l How, Howe?

Hot Rookie Rookie Rick Barry scored 30 points for San Francisco. He got, 14 of them in the first period as the Warriors sprinted to a 29-16 lead . late in the quarter. But the 76ers, who were blanked for five minutes at one stretch in the opening period, whittled away at the lead and tied the score at 45-45 on a three-pointer by Chet Walker. rt Nyj c1 EG Michigan's defending Big Ten champion gymnastics team went through their first intrasquad meet of the season yesterday, with trampolinist Wayne Miller and Rich Blanton on the rings turning in particularly impressive per- formances. Blanton's 9.6 score was high for the meet, while Miller rated a 9.5 rating. Scoring opn a 10-point scale, the complete rseults are: Floor Exercise: Phip Fuller 8.8, Chip Fuller 8.7.

Let us turn now to the second category- mental inferiority. A lot of- people think they are dumber than other people. This is not so. It must be remembered that there are different kinds of intelligence. Take, for in- stance, the classic case of the Sigafoos brothers, Claude and Sturbridge, 'students at a prominent Western university (Dartmouth). It was always assumed that Claude was the more intelligent just because he knew more than Sturbridge about the arts, the sciences, the social sciences, the humani- ties, and like that. Sturbridge, on the other hand, was ten times smarter than Claude when it came to tying granny knots. But no matter; everybody looked down on "Stupid Sturbridge," as they called him, and looked up to "Clever Claude," as they called him. But who do you think turned out to be the smart one when their granny almost got loose and ran away? You guessed it-good old Stupid Sturbridge. We arrive now at the final category, financial inferiority. One way to deal with this condition is to increase your in- come. You can, for example, become a fence. Or you can pose for a life class, if your college is well heated. But a better way to handle financial inferiority is to ac- cept it philosophically. Look on the bright side of poverty. True, others may have more money than you have, but look at all the things you have that they don't-debts, for instance, and hunger cramps. Always remember, dear friends, that poverty is no dis- grace. It is an error, but it is no disgrace. S**1965.

While Michigan State mentor Duffy Daugherty seems to be able' to claim a near monopoly on pros- pective All-Americas, Associated Press Regional Screening Board members are pointing to Wolverine Carl Ward and Tom Mack, among others, as possible replacements for some of the Spartan stars. Halfback Ward, whose two touchdowns were instrumental in last week's victory over Illinois, is a late-comer to the voting this year, but has been noted for his startling moves and tremendous speed. Mack, an offensive tackle, has been praised constantly for his blocking and remarkable maneuverability, as has team- mate on the left side of the line, Charlie Kines, who was also tag- ged this past week by the board as a potential All-America. Daugherty's Spartan list in- cludes halfback Clinton Jones, quarterback Steve Juday, offensive end Gene Washington, linebackers George Webster and Ron Goovert, and 286-pound middle guard Har- old Lucas, while overlooking AP I regional candidates Bubba Smith, Apisa. Also singled out for particular attention by the board were Notre Dame halfback. Bill Wolski, two- way end Aaron Brown of Min- nesota, and safety Nick Rassas of Notre Dame.- Wolski won AP Back of the Week honors for his five-touch- down performance in fourth- ranked Notre Dame's 69-13 mas- sacre of ,Pitt.
