N' 1%*' THE MICHIGAN DAILY . At the 19th Hole with Fred Steinhardt Michigan Takes On Arch Rival MSI Lines To Play Key Ro a,-Ua eTA Big eTitasCi The Big One A position by position analysis of Michigan and Michigan State as they prepare for the biggest game of the season today: END -- Both MSU's Art Brandstatter and Wolverine captain George Mans are all-America candidates and solid performers. Lonnie Sanders, the Spartan's other offensive end may be, the best receiver on either team, but he is not nearly as rugged as Michigan's Scott Maentz. Defensively, watch the Spartan's Ernie Clark, a 210 lb. bull. Although I am not forgetting Michigan State's outstanding soph- omores Matt Snorton and Larry Hudas, Jeff Smith, Bob Mongeau, Bob Brown, Jim Korowin, and Doug Bickle give Michigan an edge in depth. Bickle is a field goal threat' on kickoffs, but Brandstatter can also boot them for MSU. EVEN. TACKLE-It is difficult to imagine anyone getting the best of Wolverine starters Jon Schopf and John Houtman, but they are going to have their hands full with massive 250-1b. Dave Behrman, and Dave Herman. The Spartan's second pair of tackles, Pete Kakela and Tom Winecki have the edge in experience over Michigan sophs Tom Keating and Jim Wiley, although both have been impressive so far. Michigan letterman Guy Curtis should prove very valuable on de- fense. SLIGHT EDGE TO MSU. GUARD-Michigan's guards are going to have to 'stop State's -tremendous junior Ed Biddle, who has been all over the field in' his first two games. To make matters worse, the first two right guards' Joe O'Donnell' and Lou Pavloff are definitely out of the contest with injuries, putting the burden on sophs Dave Kurtz and Del Nolan. Lee Hall and fast-developing John Minko should handle the other guard slot capably for Michigan. George Azar is the next best for State and he's no slouch. EDGE TO MSU. CENTER-Dive Manders of Michigan State is much better than average but so is Michigan's Todd Grant who is also a good ten pounds heavier. To compliment Grant, Michigan has John Walger, a defensive demon. SLIGHT EDGE TO MICHIGAN. HALFBACK-Michigan State has at least as many good halfbacks as Michigan but no one to approach Benny McRae or Dave Raimey. Gary Ballmari and Carl Charon provide solid power, but neither can match the Michigafi duo's speed. Speedy Sophs Sherm Lewis and Dewey Lincoln are not as fast or strong as Raimey or McRae. Michigan has outstanding depth in Jack Etrobel, Ed Hood, and Biuce McLenna. For the Spartans, Rocky Ryan on defense and soph Herm John- son also will bear watchi g. Ryan is underrated. Incidentally, the 4 Spartan secondary has been death on passing. Wisconsin and Stan- ford, two pass-happy teams have netted a total of three points between them. EVEN FULLBACK-Michigan State will depend on tough Ron Hatcher for the short yardage as they did last year. Hatcher is neither as big as Bill Tunnicliff nor as fast as Ken Tureaud, Michigan's first two. Tureaud also sparkles on defense. The speedy but smallish George Saimes goes both ways and has been a valuable asset to Michigan State so far. . Michigan's Jim Ward, also a solid two way player and 15 lbs. heavier than Saimes, could play first string for half the teams in the Big Ten. EDGE TO MICHIGAN. QUARTERBACK-If anything happens to State starter Pete Smith, who can't approach smooth Dave Glinka anyway, the Spar- tans will be in hot water. I doubt if Duffy Daugherty wishes to unveil untested soph Doug Proebstle in a crucial game before' 100,000 scream- ing people. To backstop Glinka is experienced senior defensive specialist John Stamos. Soph Tom Pritchard has also seen action. But the real ace up Bump Elliott's sleeve is passing wizard Bob Chandler who un- limbered last week with a picture play 36-yd. TD pass to Bob Brown. Don't be surprised if Smith takes to the air more than he has so far. He Is an adequate passer and has the receivers. BIG EDGE TO MICHIGAN. OVERALL ANALYSIS-Michigan lost in 1960 when its light line wilted in the late stages under the onslaught of two massive MSU lines. State returns virtually the same team minus a quarterback of Tom Wilson's stature. Michigan returns almost all of its key backfield personnel behind a much sturdier line and that should be the differ- ence. MICHIGAN. DANGEROUS MSU BACKS-Keep your eyes on the boys piptured above who are some of the MSU platoon of backs who hope to create havoc with the Michigan line today. From left to right: Halfback Carl Charon, who gained 124 yards against Michigan in last years contest; halfback Sherman Lewis, 'a great breakaway threat; fullback George Saimes who had a sensational debut against Wisconsin this year; quarterback Pete Smith, the Spartan signal caller who may lead a rebuilt passing attack.

Ohio, while Wisconsin hosts Ore- gon State. Other Games Are Scrimmages Woody Hayes, Ohio State coach, considers non-conference games as mere "scrimmages." This at- titude has obviously been taken by the team because in their two hon-conference games thus far, Ohio State has appeared to be anything but Conference Cham- pions. In their opener, the Buckeyes were tied by Texas Christian, and last weekend they salvaged a 13-3 win over the same UCLA team that Michigan had trounced 29-6, a week earlier. Both Washington and North- western have defeated the Illini in their two previous games. Iowa' Unbeaten Iowa is still undefeated, but the. Hawkeyes just squeaked by last week, edging an inspired South- ern California team 35-34 In their first game they trounced California, while Kansas State and Wisconsin have both downed Indiana. The Minnesota - Northwestern game figures to be an interesting contest. The Gophers have ex- celled in only one department this year, defense. They lost their opener to Missouri, 6-0, but bounc- ed back last week to defeat Ore- gon 14-7. Northwestern, led by their soph-' omore fullback, Bill Swingle has walked over its two opponents, Boston' College and Illinois. Swin- gle is the Conference's leading scorer, and has an 8.4 rushing average for 29 carries. The highly-touted Miller to Richter pass combination which was supposed to make Wisconsin the "Rags to Riches" team of the Big Ten has shown very little so far this year. The Badgers squeak- ed by Utah in their opener, lost to Michigan State, 20-0 in= their sec- ond game and last week edged Indianan, 6-3. The combo clicked for only one touchdown in the three games, and that has been the only touchdown that the Bad- gers have scored all season. The win against Indiana last week was the result of two field- goals by senior Jim Bakken. Bak- ken missed on six attempts in the Utah opener. Purdue' figures to have no trouble against Miami of Ohio, The Boilermakers won their open- er against Washington,but bowed to traditional rival Notre Dame last Saturday. LATE SCORES U. of Detroit 20, Boston College 3 Colorado 9, Miami (Fla.) 7 Houston 31, Boston 3 (AFL) (Continued from Page 1) closed doors all week cooking up specialties and neither Michigan Coach Bump Elliott nor Spartan mentor Duffy Daugherty is con- ceding a thing. Both have had their problems. Elliott has been especially con- cerned about his slippery speed- ster Dave Raimey and his much ballyhooed hip bruise. At last re- port, however, Raimey was ready to go. Daugherty's Problem Daugherty's problem lies with quarterback Pete Smith who was forced to miss >several key prac- tices because of the death of his father. The senior Smith died sof a heart attack during MSU's 31-3 conquest of Stanford last Satur- day. How much Smith's practice ab- sences will hurt the Spartans won't unfold until this afternoon, but Daugherty has let it be known, as has Elliott, that he expects to have to go to the air more today than he has in the first two games. Smith is his number one chuck- er, though virtually untested un- der game pressure. The steady senior has taken over the signal calling job this fall after spending last season on the bench. He has thrown only 11 times with little success. Michi- gan's Dave Glinka, in his second year as the Wolverine field gen- eral, proved himself last fall. This year he hasn't had to throw. This afternoon's contest, how- ever, may change all that as each team appears to have the defense to stop the other's highly- regard- ed ground attack. The Spartans' have yielded only 96 yds. rushing, while Michigan has grudgingly given 12'. Both rank in the na- tion's top ten, Conversely, the opposing run- ning attacks also rate among the best.

It was the medieval armorer's task to protect his chief against foemen, but weather-protection was a more difficult matter. Thus many a knight was spent in rusty armor. Engineers and scientists at Ford Motor Company, engaged in both pure and applied research, are coping even today with the problem of body protection (car bodies, that is). Through greater understanding of the chemistry of surfaces, they have developed new paint primers and undercoatings,. new rustproofing methods, and special sealers that guard entire car bodies against nature's corrosive forces-all of which add armor-like protection to Ford-built cars. 'From other scientific inquiries will undoubt- edly come new materials with ,protective' properties vastly superior to those of today. This is another example of Ford's leadership through scientific research and engineering.
