THE MICHIGAN DAILY LV. ' Rushing Offense Shoots Hard-Running Backs Lead Blue to Victory in Opener (Continued from Page 1) through," he added. Elliott started sophs Carl Ward at right half- back and Jim Detwiler at left halfback. Detwiler was subbing for junior John Rowser, out of action with a leg injury. 1 Ward and Detwiler picked up 51 and 72 yards rushing, respectively. But the team's rushing leaders were Timberlake with 80 yards r and senior fullback Mel Anthony with 79 yards on the ground. Sophomore fullback Dave Fisher made it into the game in the fourth quarter and picked up 28 yards on six carries. Elliott said, "I think the game was in doubt until the third quarter, when Timberlake on a third down pass play ran to get the first down by a yard." The Wolverines had taken over on their own 20-yard line after Bart Holaday was wide on a field goal from the Michigan 16-yard line. The Wolverine offense moved to the 45-yard line before it seem- ingly stalled. But on a third down and 30 yards to go situation, Tim- berlake couldn't find a receiver open and ran up the middle of the field to' the Air Force 24-yard line, just making the first down by a yard. Anthony Gets First Three plays later Anthony gain-' ed a first down on the 14-yard line on a fourth down and one yard to go situation. Anthony picked up four more yards on the next play. Detwiler then started to sweep around right end, cut inside the .end, and when hit by opposing tacklers about the four- yard line simply bulled his way into the end zone. This score and Timberlake's con- version put Michigan on top 24-7. Both teams threatened in the final quarter but neither scored. Michigan moved in. for the first score of the season after the third play of the game when Falcon halfback Paul Wargo fumbled and' senior left tackle Arnie Simkus recovered on the Air Force 35- yard line. It took the Wolverines eight plays to chalk up the seven points. Second Touchdown Michigan's middle touchdown came after a close call on defense. Junior linebacker Tom Cecchini had temporarily halted a Falcon drive by recovering Wargo's fumble on the Michigan 15-yard line. But two plays later Timberlake passed to Henderson at the 28- yard line and Henderson, trying to outflank a Falcon defender and escape down the left sidelines, fumbled the ball. It was recovered by Lloyd Duncan on the 15-yard line and the Falcons were once again in a threatening position. Fullback Steve Amdor tried to carry the ball through right guard on the first play but was nailed at the line of scrimmage by junior linebacker Chuck Dehlin. On the next play, quarterback Tim Mur- phy lofted a pass to end Bill Landes but sophomore defensive halfback Rich Volk leaped in front of Landes to catch the ball for a touchback. Eight Plays Micligan started from the 20- yard line and charged down the 80 yards in only eight plays for the touchdown. The big plays of the series were " a 34-yard run around left end by Ward who had taken Timberlake's pitchout and a 25-yard Timberlake to Steve Smith pass play. Anthony scored from five yards out on the second play of the -second quarter. Murphy completed four passes an a pass interference penalty put the ball on the Michigan seven-yard line. But the Falcon attack bogged down and on a fourth down 'and four yards to go situation, Murphy was ready to hold the ball for Holaday's field goal attempt. But Murphy picked up the ball, rolled to his right and hit halfback Dick Czarnota in the end zone for the touchdown. Detwiler Runback Air Force kicked off to Michigan and Detwiler ran it out of the end zone to the 35-yard line of the Wolverines. Timberlake led the Wolverines down the field with passes ,of 16 and ten yards to junior end Craig Kirby and his own 19-yard run. Then on the six-yard line of the Falcons, a personal foul was called on Michi- gan and the attack stalled. Timberlake attempted a field1 goal but it was blocked by Amdor. The Michigan signal-caller fell on the ball at the _45-yard line, but got another chance to go for1 the three-pointer when an offsidesc penalty was called on Air Force.t This time Timberlake's attempt t was wide but the Falcons were1 offside again. The third time Tim-r berlake didn't miss. He split thex uprights from the 16-yard line,r putting the Wolverines on top, 17- 7, at halftime. )own alcons, 24 Powerful Falcon Passing Game Points Major Weakness in Wolverine's Defc (Continued from Page 1) ! done by our sophomores who play- game and during interm back and some fine receivers, . ed a good hard game." one of the biggest tre "Murphy is no sleeper for u§. * * afternoon was the Air Fc He played right behind last year's I Besides running the Michigan cot, a real falcon, perfc signalcaller Terry Isaacson and j offense, Timberlake handled the acrobatic stunts upon ran our opponent's plays during kickoff and field goal chores.

PHILLIES LOSE AGAIN: Reds Are One-Half Game Out By The Associated Press The Philadelphia Phillies, in first place in the National League since July 16, were in danger yes- terday of toppling from the top spot following their sixth straight defeat, 6-4 to Milwaukee. The Cincinnati Reds whipped New York 6-1 for their seventh consecutive victory - longest in the league this season-and crept to within one-half game of the! Phillies. Third-place St. Louis moved to 11/2 back, beating Pitts- 'burgh 6-3, while San Francisco, rained out at Chicago, stood three behind.f The Reds pulled even in the loss column with the Phillies while the Cardinals were one down and the Giants two down. Philadelphia has six games left, Cincinnati and St. 'Louis seven each and San Francisco eight. Philadelphia led 4-3 until Rico Carty lashed a three-run triple off Bobby Shantz in the ninth inning. Hank Aaron and Eddie Mathews singled before Frank Boiling reached first on an error, loading the bases for Carty. Alex, Johnson hit a two-run homer in the Phillies' first. In the American League the New York Yankees reduced their magic number to four with a 7-0 triumph 'over Washington. Any combination of New York victories and losses by the runners-up total- ing four will clinch the pennant for the Yankees. Baltimore defeated Cleveland 5-3, remaining four games behind New York. Russ Snyder, Boog Powell and Brooks Robinson each hit solo homers for the Orioles. Reliever Dick Hall helped Milt Pappas post his 16th victory in 22 decisions. Left-hander Gary Peters won his 20th game while Don Buford stroked three singles, scored three runs and stole two bases as the Chicago White Sox defeated Kansas City 5-2 last night. t Detwiler, starting his first col- legiate game in place of Rowser, thrilled the fans with his sheer running power. Backfield coach Hank Fonde commented, "We've known all along that Jim was a good hard runner. As a matter of fact, one of the most pleasing aspects of the day was the job Michigan Wins '64 Season Opener AIR MICHIGAN FORCE First Downs 22 17 Rushing 15 4 Passing 5 12 Penalty 2 1 Total No. of Rushes 6 33 Net Yards--Rushing 311 77 Passing 91 230 Forward Passes Att. 15 40 Completed 7 23 Intercepted by 2 0 Yds. interceptions ret. 0 0 Total Plays (Rushes and Passes) 76 73 Punts, Number 3 3 Average distance 43 44 Kickoffs, returned by 1 1 Yards Kicks Returned 45 60' Punts 10 28 Kickoffs 35 32 Fumbles, Number 3 ' 4 Ball lost by 2 3 Penalties, Number 5 6 Yards penalized 56 44 W ELCOME BACK STUDENTS! -5 Barbers to serve you- at U-M Barbers WUniv.nearKresge-s and -7 Barbers to serve you- at The Dascola Barbers near Mich.
