WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 9,1966 THE MICHIGAN DAII, IPAnV. 44MVVV a vaaMEi~tmAN IL[111/ ra tzh u' I T'M' Fea By JON SISKIN At the tail end of a most dis- appointing '65 season, the North- western Wildcats cut loose with their best offensive display of the year, walloping a surprised Mich- igan team. The circumstances are similar again this year, with the injury - riddled Wildcats possibly primed to shock the Wolverines with another offensive explosion. Northwestern's showing this sea- son has not approached the pre- season hopes of coach Alex Agase. The 'Cats have compiled a 2-5-1 overall record, 1-3-1 in the Big Ten, losing to Florida, Notre Dame, Indiana, Michigan State and Minnesota. George Mans, Michigan's end coach, commented, "They've been hit real hard by injuries to key men, and as a result have been forced -to go with inexperience, particularly in the offensive and defensive' lines. At the moment they're a thin team with little Sdepth.." Shaky Starters Agase's main worry at the be- ginning of the season concerned the effectiveness of the inexper- rs New fenced offensive line. When starter Joe Ramsdell was put on the shelf early in the campaign with knee trouble, things weren't exactly comin' up roses. Losing a vital cog such as Ramsdell consider- ably weakened an already shaky offensive line. With the offensive line in such a state, it has been difficult for Northwestern's promising back- field to get untracked. Bull-dog- ging fullback Bob McKelvey, who charged for an impressive 587 yards last season, has picked up just over 300 this year as has fleet - footed halfback W o o d y Campbell. Sophomore Chico Kur- zawski fills the other halfback slot and has rushed for a team-leading 5.4 yard average. More often than not, however, the Wildcat backs have been stopped short because of the offensive line's inability to move the opposition. Crippling Blows Bill Melzer; who replaced Denny Boothe as the regular quarterback early in the year, has hit on just over 50 per cent of his passes. His favorite targets have been tight end Cas Banaszek, all-time North- western record holder for pass re- ceptions, and split end Roger Murphy, who is threatening Paul Flatley's school mark of 45 catches in a single season. Much of the Wildcats' offensive success has been via the air, and Melzer may be filling the atmosphere with footballs in even greater abund- ance come Saturday. Defensively, injuries have also played a devastating role. Both first string tackles, Ken Ramsey and Walt Geister, are out due to an old Michigan nemesis, kneeitis. Ramsey, a defensive stalwart last year, is sorely missed, and the Wolverines may be directing many of their offensive thrusts toward h i s inexperienced replacement. Sandy Smith, another tackle, may be able to go at full strength after sitting out five weeks with a bad foot. Fakeout Vidmer Despite these injuries, Mans re- fuses to sell the defense short. "Northwestern has two defensive trademarks. First of all, they al- Wildcat Strike ways will hit hard, which they did with particular success against Michigan State. Second, they are continually scrambling and stunt- ing on defense, trying to confuse the opposing quarterback. Even; though they have been hard hit by injuries, they are more than cap- able on defense." On several occasions this year both the linebacking corps and the defensive secondary have been ail- ing. Defensive halfback Phil Clark, t one of the standouts in the con- ference, has managed to stay healthy and will be given the un- enviable task of sticking with Jack Clancy, the best pass catcher in the nation. Once Again... But Last year, Michigan was pegged as a strong favorite to topple; Northwestern in their battle at Evanston. The Wolverines entered the contest at a low ebb as a re- sult of heartbreaking losses to Purdue and Minnesota. The Wild cats, unimpressive during the :< course of a dismal season, rose up and clawed the unwary Wolver- ines 34-22. With Michigan again out of Rose Bowl contention because of two tormenting losses to Illinois and Purdue, it may be tough to bounce back. Northwestern, in Mans' words, "will be psycholog- ically ready" and the Wolverines will definitely have to be "up" if they hope to avenge last year's setback. CHICO KURZAWSKI VOTED MVP: F.
