Tomorrow- the offensive backfield.) By CARL RAYFORD "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog that matters"-offen- sive line coach Tony Mason. Mason was referring to the pros- pective candidates who will struggle for Tom Mack and Charley Kines' tackle positions. Mack, an All-America in his senior season,' will be especially missed for his speed and accuracy in as- signments. Despite his 230 plus pounds, he was able to sprint with the halfbacks and provide valu- able downfield blocking. The most prominent characteristic of Mack's play, however, was that he was a "master of assignment." He knew his job and was consequently hardly ever out of position. He always got his man. Kines, who was also good on assignments, was known as a power man. It was often his power that provided the initial opening for the familiar blast by fullback Dave Fisher. "Both Kines and Mack knew their jobs well and; were able to adjust remarkably well to changing defenses," said Mason.+ Mair vs. Broadnax+ Battling for Mack's position will be a junior Stan Broadnax and senior Peter Mair. Coach Mason believes they are both promising.+ "Each shows the ability to do more+ than another in certain areas, but it will be up to the one who can ; show the most all-around per- formance to play."1 At six feet and 217 pounds, Stan Broadnax could provide the speed and *gility that the line will miss with Mack's departure. However, Broadnax's dexterity will be chal- lenged stiffly by the added size and weight of Mair. Kine's Successor One junior and two sophomores' will battle for Kines' spot. Probably most favored for the position is Ray Phillips, a returning letter- man and junior from Evanston,I Illinois. Phillips, at 6' 3" and 217 pounds saw limited action last year, so he enters his second season with some experience. 9 David Denzin, a 6' 2" 225-pound sophomore from Xenia, Ohio, will provide some competition for Phil- lips along with Robert Penska, a 6' 2", 225-pounder from Miles, Ohio. Although he is not actually con- sidered a part of the offensive line, the tight end performs blocking duties that greatly influence the operation of the line in any team. For the Wolverines, Tom Pullen and Royce Spencer are competing for the end slot to be left open by Steve Smith's graduation. Pul- len's experience on the job gives him the inside track for the posi- tion, but Spencer is considered to have a chance to knock him out of the favorite's role. An unknown factor in the end problem could be Clayt Wilhite, who performed defensive end duties last fall but who could be used to fill in on offense. Stayability The Wolverines do, however, have several returnees to the of- fensive line. Expected to provide much support to the successful operation of the line are Joe Day- ton and Paul D'Eramo at offensive center with Don Bailey, Barry Dehlin, Henry Hanna; Bob Mielke and Ken Wright at guard. This season Tony Mason intends to make some changes in the play- ing methods of the offensive line. The biggest change will be that "this year we will work on quick- ness and stayability," said Mason. "By stayability we mean the ability to make a block and main- tain it." The quickness and "stay- ability" of this year's team will be helped by the smaller size of the players on it. Overall, Mason es- timates that the line may lose as much as 50-75 pounds. Because of the smaller size, the line will have to rely on quickness to a greater extent, or, as Mason put it, "personnell will dictate the offense." Mason believes there is adequate depth in the line and "the boys who play will be the ones who show the most desire and vio- lence." He is confident that this year's line will be ready for the ferocity of Big Ten play. (Continued from Page 3) service; Henry E. de Boxtel, 29 Laurel, restaurant employe; How- ard T.

The agents began the roundup at 6 a.m. and by 7:.12 am. an- nounced that 12 were in custody in Mississippi and a 13th in Hous- ton, Tex. A search was being made for Sam Holloway Bowers Jr., im- perial wizard of the Mississippi Klan. Mississippi Highway Patrol inevestigators assisted in the search. Those arrested were taken to Laurel, Miss., for fingerprinting and will be taken before U.S. Com- missioner Jack Pittman in Hat- tiesburg later. Stan Broadnax and Tom Mack: Transition at Tackle TAKE SIXTH PLACE: Golfers Fall Flat on No. 55 I i I By DAVE PFEFFER Number 55 . . . a. figure the Michigan golfers would like to for- get. After Thursday's round, the 'M' golfers were in second place in the Miami Invitational, with an outstanding average of 71.1 strokes per man..When the tallies had fin- ally been made on Friday's scores, Michigan linksmen still found themselves in a very respectable fourth place position, only eight strokes from second . However, on Saturday, the final round of the tourney, "The roof fell in," according to golf coach. Bert Katzeimeyer. The trouble stemmed from what he referred to as "the strangest event I have ever witnessed in my coaching career." The squad; played "very poorly after being-affected by'one hole, the first one of the day and num- ber 55 of the meet." The hole, a par 5 that doglegged to the right with out-of bounds also on the right, was "played un- believably bad" by the Wolverines. They registered a 6, a 7, two 8's, and one 10 on this disasterous hole. "As a result," continued Katzen- meyer, "this tournament was over after this one hole-we could not give this many shots to the other teams in contention for second place. After this absurd golf, the whole team' knew what had hap- pened and it wrecked the whole day's golf. It was a case in which no matter how hard we tried, everything went against us." Seventh Score The Michigan team ended up in sixth place in the 26-team 'field, with a total of 1203 strokes. John Schroeder paced the squad by end- ing with a 73 and a. 290 total. Sophomore John Richart and re- turning letterman Jim Evashev- ski totaled 298 and 306, respec- tively. Senior Bob Bond rounded out Michigan's four qualifiers with 309 strokes. Although seven men made the trip to Coral Gables, only six. could 'compete as a team, with the low four'of these counting. In the rounds preceeding the tourney,. junior Bob Barclay had a late start and was the seventh man. However, he fired a 303 over the, 72-hole tournament as an individ-' ual. If his score would have count- ed, Michigan would have moved up one notch in the final standings. Gators Bite Other 'M' scores were Bill New- ton's 311 and Chip Groves' 326. Newton, the 1965 Big Ten indi- vidual champion, "was not sharp all week," commented Coach Kat- zenmeyer. "He wasn't hitting the ball well or keeping it under con- trol. The only indication of his coming around was a sub-par round early in the week." The University of Florida, led, by 1965 National Amateur champ Bob Murphy, ran away with first place with a tourney record of 1145, or 71.5 strokes per man. Fol- lowing the title-repeating Gators were Ohio State with 1180, Aus- tin Peay and University of Miami with 1192 each, and Rollins' 1199. Bermuda Grass The Biltmore Country Club course was in fine shape. How- ever, the greens were Bermuda grass, with is characteristic of southern courses and has a coarse. grainy' texture. "The weakest part of our game," said Coach Katzen- meyer, "was in the scoring area. We could not recover on the greens. The boys would have 4-6 foot par putts, and miss them. In addition, they hit a large percent- age of greens in regulation (birdie putts). Left with 25-40 foot putts, the Michigan golfers would lag up 5-6 feet short. Not being able to sink many of these close ones, they naturally felt the pressure getting to them." The 'M' golfers ended the day "horribly dejected in feeling that they had kicked away three tre- mendous rounds of golf. However," concluded Katzenmeyer, "there was a consolation for the team's showing. First; they did learn something that will" benefit them in the future. Secondly, what has happened is over now and is hope- fully behind us permanently." Looking toward the Big Ten meet, golf coach Katzenmeyer feels that Ohio State, who finish- ed second in the Miami Invita- tinal without team-member Alex Antonnio, is quite a strong con- tender for the title. Michigan had defeated the Buckeyes in a pre- tourney double-dual meet. Also, Purdue and Indiana should be top threats for the crown, along with Michigan.

Voted college basketball's Play- er of the Year in Iowa City three weeks ago in the NCAA tourna- ment, he has since then played in Denver and Lexington. In Denver, the three-time All- America led the Ford Mustangs, a pick-up team, to the National AAU championship. At Lexington, Rus- sell was named the most valuable player of the game after his East All-Stars beat the West All-Stars, 126-99.
