I I ichigan Readies Pass Defense for, omecoming Tilt Against Minnesota SPur due Sets Sights on Unbeaten +s By The Assodiated Press :l 7 By BRIAN MACCLOWRY With only a light workout scheduled for today the problems facing the Michigan coaching staff turns from physical to-mental fitness for the team on the eve of the Minnesota battle. It has been generally conceded throughout the sports world that being "up" for a football game can lift a team's chances as much as 25% against any opponent. Is Michigan "up" for the Little Brown Jug classic against un- defeated Minnesota? Buiip Elliott admits he just doesn't know. "I'm a poor judge of whether a football team Is mentally ready for a game," he commented. "I'll say one thing though. We'll have to be 'up' if we expect to stay on the same field with a team as good as Minnesota." The Wolverines are in much the same position as before the Michigan State game. Same as MSU Michigan was sky high for the game with their arch rival but still lost when the Spartan's heavier and deeper line took com- mand in the fourth quarter and spearheaded the winning touch- down. And the 4g!opher line is some- what heavier than the Spartan's, averaging 225 pounds per man. Last week Michigan seemed to be at their lowest morale ebb of the season as they led, fell behind, aand then scrambled back to edge' a stuttering Northwestern team, 14-7. On Saturday Elliott will find out if his team is "up". and if it belongs on the same field with Minnesota. PRACTICE NOTES Yesterday's practice was devoted largely to perfecting pass patterns, and working the defense against Minnesota plays. The weather, which hovered around 40 degrees, caused a lot of concern as the ends had trouble hanging on to the ball. If it's as cold tomorrow it will seriously ',hamper the Wolverine passing attack. Elliott also worked the team briefly on punt returns, reminding them that last year's Minnesota game was decided by Darrell Harper's 82-yard tounchdown run- back. MINNEAPOLIS-The Minnesota Gophers will invade Ann Arbor Saturday with one top halfback left home and another still nurs- ing a sore shoulder. Judge Dickson, junior from Clairton, Pa., will not make the trop to Michigan, Coach Murray Warmath announced today. Dick- son, who handles the Gopher kick- offs also, suffered a sore ankle in the Illinois game. Dave Mulholland, junior half- back from Fargo, N.D., is still nursing a shoulder injury and ran with the third unit in practice. * * * IOWA CITY-Iowa apparently will be missing some of its defen- sive power in the line when the Hawkeyes meet Purdue in a home- coming football game here Satur- day. Coach Forest Evashevski had hopes this week that his injured first stringers, guard Sherwyn Thorson and tackle Charlie Lee would be fully mended in time to help stop the Boilermakers' effort to break Iowa's winning streak. But the trainers said it. was practically impossible for Lee 'to see any action and that Thorson was a very doubtful starter. Evashevski seemed put out to- day about the continued tendency of his fast-breaking squad to make workout today ended Purdue's preparations for Saturday's game at Iowa-the fifth straight un-" beaten opponent Purdue has faced this year. Coach Jack Mollenkopf put his team through its defensive paces after reminding the Boilermakers that Iowa possesses one of the speediest offenses in the nation.' The latter part of the workout was devoted to a review of the kicking game. complete review of offense and defense today in the last hard workout before Saturday's home- coming game with Michigan State; Coach Phil Dickens especially stressed covering punts and kick- offs. , With wingpack Nate Ramsey .definitely out of action, sophomore Mike Lopa ran with the second unit and senior Ron Roemer took the third unit assignment. * * * EVANSTON- Linebacker Larry Onesti, key man in Northwestern's football defense, is a doubtful starter for Saturday game against Notre Dame. Onesti is suffering from a sprained elbow and back muscle. Two other injured players are expected to meet the Irish. They are Jack Cvercko, first tackle, and Chuck Urbanic, team guard. CHAMPAIGN - Coach Elliott today shuffiled his r to bolster his Illinois tea Saturday's game' here Penn State.

THIS WEEK'S GAMES CONSENSUS PICKS IN CAPS (Consensus 47-33-.587) By TOM WEBBER Not since the great Paul Giel was performing heroics for Gopher teams of the early fifties has Min- nesota enjoyed the performances of a triple-threat back. This Saturday the Gophers will bring just such a back to Ann Arbor in the person of Sandy Stephens. So far this year Stephens has done everything but scout from the pressbox in leading the Maroon and Gold to four straight wins. Working from the quarterback spot he can pass, run and kick equally well and in between he retunrs punts and kickoffs. So far this year he has scored six touchdowns and passed for two others to lead the Big Ten in scoring. Stephens, a 215-pound junior. has amassed 110 yards rushing, with 58 of those coming in last, week's key battle with Illinois.: He also scored three touchdowns in the Illini win for his best in- dividual performance. His passing, although not as consistent as other Big Ten quar- terbacks, has accounted for size- able yardage. In the four games this year, he has completed eight passes for a total of 163 yards, an average of over 20 yards a com- pletion. In addition Stephens has re-, turned two kickoffs for 60 yardsj to establish himself a threat in that department. Besides being a threat every{ time he handles the ball, Stephens performs very well in a depart- ment that often decides close games, such as is expected in Saturday's encounter - punting. He has averaged 37.2 yards a punt compared to a less than 31 yard average for an assortment of Wolverine punters. Clutch Player Although Stephens' statistics are not overly impressive, with the exception of his scoring, he is very capable of coming up with the big game when his team needs it, as shown by his performance against Illinois.
