Meet W. G. Gridley. He's a happy man.
Mr. Gridley, who lives in East Lansing, Michigan, and who is
the manager of the local Kresge dime store there, has just spent
the summer selling 1800 Frisbees to local college enthusiasts.
Insignificant? Trivial? Never. *For, in the great hinterland to
the north, Michigan State University has Frisbee fever. In the
greatest athletic revolution since Knute Rockne and the forward
pass, these saucer-shaped missiles made by the Wham-O Mfg. Col
have surplanted touch football, necking, studying, and grassers as
the Spartan pasttime-and threaten to undermine the entire athletic
scholarship program.'
But why? The State News, MSU }
campus paper's roving news staff,
tried to find out. Pat Wilson, an
MSU sophomore from Detroit,
claims that the ultimate object
is to "perfect your technique in
handling a Frisbee."
Others weren't taken in quite'
so easily. Robert Rice, a junior
from Corunna, is a Frisbee, hold-
out. "I don't own one, but if I
did," says Bob, "I'd probably use
it for an ash tray. They fail to
impress me." The question now is,
will Bob lose his scholarship?"........................)..

NEW YORK-Junior Bill Far-;

fastest time for today's finals in
the 1500-meter freestyle at the1
U.S. Olympic trials.,
Wolverine Captain Ed Bartsch
failed to qualify for the finals of
the 200-meter backstroke as did
world recordholder Tom Stock.:
However, sophomore Russ Kingery

finished eighth in the finals after
placing sixth in the preliminaries.
Farley led the eight qualifiers
for the finals yesterday with a
17:17.8 time in this metric mile
event. The eight finalists will
compete in the finals today for
three, places on the U.S. Olympic
team.
Roy Saari, who already has
earned Olympic swimming berths
in two events, was fourth with a
17:25.7 time. John Nelson, an
Olympic team member in the 400-
meter freestyle, was
Farley with a 17:19.5
Wall of Santa Clara,
third in 17:20.3.
Farley is a veteran of the 1963
Pan-American Games. As a sopho-
more last spring, Farley tied a
Big Ten record in the 1650-meter
freestyle and set a record in the
500-meter freestyle in winning
those events at the Big Ten Meet.
The listed world record in the
1500 is held by Saari at 17:05.5.
It has since been bettered by Aus-
tralia's Murray Rose with a time
of 17:01.8 but Rose apparently
isn't eligible to compete in the
Games.
Bartsch, a 1963 Pan-American
Games gold medalist, 1963 NCAA
champion, and 1964 NAAU indoor
backstroke champion, failed to
make the finals. But with Kin-
gery making the finals, the Wol.
verines should have one of the
best one-two combinations in the
backstroke of any team in the
country.
Gary Dilley, a 19-year-old Mich-
igan State sophomore who never
had won a national title, surged
from behind in the closing strokes
and won the backstroke event.
The 6-foot-1, 165-pounder from
Huntington, Ind., scored by about
two feet over Jed Graef, 6-foot-6
second to,
time. Mikef
Calif., was
Princeton graduate from Verona,
N.J. Bob Bennett, 1960 Olympian
from the Los Angeles A.C., was
third, earning a spot on the
Tokyo-bound team.
Dilley was timed in 2:12.0 in
the 50-meter Astoria Pool, much
slower than the world record of
2:10.9 held by Tom Stock of Au-
rora, Ill., who failed to make the
eight-man final. Stock just failed,
to qualify with 2:16.9. Graef's
time was 2:12.7 and Bennett's
2:12.8.
Pete Hammer of Bloomington,
Ind., who topped the morning
qualifiers on a bright, sunny day,
with 2:14.0, was fourth in 2:13.7.
Thompson Mann of Chesapeake,
Va., was fifth in 2:14.2; Dick Mc-
Geagh of Glendale, Calif., co-
holder .of the world mark for 100
meters, sixth in- 2:15.1; Navy Lt.
Richard Beaver was seventh in
2:15.3.
Mann led from the start to the
150-meter mark, with Graef one
or two yards behind. In thd final
50 to the wall, Dilley opened up
with a tremendous burst and
spurted past Mann, whos faded,.
and Graef.
Dilley said he never finished
better than sixth ins a national
meet but said he had been confi-
dent he would make the, first
three.
In the women's events, Sharon
Stouder, 15-year-old swimming
streak from Glendora, Calif.,
broke the listed world record again
for the women's 100-meter
fly and became the first
winner of the U.S. Olympic

MSU co-ed with Frisbee
"Why did they call it a Frisbee',
queries Bob, scratching his right forehand with the crook of his left
index finger. Then, as with greater insight into this new problem,
"Why didn't they call, it'a Malcom, or a Sydney, or a Ralph?" That's
a good question, Bob.
But the best question was answered by MSU Dean of Students
John Fuzak. What next after the Frisbee? "Maybe yo-yos." Could be.

Elsewhere in the wonderful world of sport this summer, ex-
Michigan tackle Tom Keating made a big hit with the Buffalo Bills
of the American Football League when he almost blasted St. Louis
Cardinal guard Ken Gray's head off in the opening scrimmage of
the season. Keating, who may be in line for a starting defensive
end post after his brilliant fisticuff debut, laughed when asked
about the fight which broke out during the scrimmage against the
Cardinals. Hah, hah.
"Keating beat the hell out of Gray," smiled fellow Bills rookie
Hatch Rlosdahl, formerly of Penn .State fame. "Ring Magazine
should have covered that scrimmage."
"It started when I rushed the passer the play before," said
Keating. "Ankerson (Jack Ankerson, rookie quarterback) had the
ball on his hip, and I went for it. I guess I hit him when.I did.
"The next play Gray grabbed my face mask and almost tore
my head off. So I swung at him and he swung at me."
Keating and Rosdahl agreed that the Cardinals were stronger
than the NFL champion Chicago Bears they had bumped face masks
with in the All-Star game. Both Keating and fellow ex-Wolverine
guard Joe O'Donnell saw considerable action in the game.

You can read 150-200 pages on hour using the ACCELERATED READING method.
You'll learn to read DOWN the paged comprehending at speeds of 1,000 to 2,000 words a
minute. And retention is excellent. This is not a skimming method; you definitely read every
word.
You can apply the ACCELERATED READING method to textbooks and factual material
as well as to literature and fiction. The author's style is not lost when you read at these
speeds. In fact, your accuracy and enjoyment in reading will be increased. Consider what
this reading ability will enable you to accomplish-not only in your required reading but also
in the additional reading you want to do.
No machines, projectors, or apparatus are used in learning the ACCELERATED READING
method. In this way the reader avoids developing any dependence upon external equipment.
A Tuesday evening class in ACCELERATED READING will be taught, adjacent to the
University of Michigan campus beginning on September 29. It's an experience to be able to
read a book in one sitting and see it as a whole.
Be our guest at a 30-minute public demonstration of the ACCELERATED READING
method and see it applied.
BRING A BOOK!
Demonstrations will be held at the Michigan Student Union on:
THURSDAY, Sept. 10 at 7:30 P.M.
