W .I , LA X, vu I-viorm 7 5~.5, UU Unusual Offense By GIL SAMBERG With Michigan rated just barely over Michigan State in the na- tionwide-polls, the 57th battle be- tween the intra-state rivals prom- ises to be a contest of two evenly matched team. Tradition calls for a no-holds barred struggle which forsakes all rankings, rating, and predictions.' This year should be no exception. Duffy Daugherty's crew, regarded as also-rans after a 21-15 beat- ing in its opener against North Carolina, came back to post a big 17-7 upset against second-ranked Southern California last week. "It was no accident," says head Coach Bump Elliott. "Southern Cal wasn't overrated. State has a tough team." The Spartans, plagued by losses at graduation last year which took Roger Lopes and Sherman Lewis out of their backfield, unveiled their new offense at Chapel Hill against the Tar Heels. In the new formation the Spartans use a split end, a flanker back, and an un- balanced line. Coming out of the huddle they have anunorthodox eight-man, line. There are only three men in the backfield-a quarterback and two halfbacks- who will, often, go into an "I" formation. The fullback is re- placed by a pass-receiving flanker back. "They are a Iowerful team," says Elliott. This year's Spartan eleven . has replaced some of its lost speed with a passing game. Gene Washington, an extremely fast 209 pound end, plays the split-end position. In his varsity debut against North Carolina he averaged 11.7 yards per reception for his four catches. Senior Tom Krzemienski, regarded as "one of the best ends in the business," plays the tight end spot. He snared one pass for 14 yards against the Tar Heels. Tackle Eligible Other receivers include halfback Harry Ammon, a senior who is the top ground gainer of the return- ing backs, and Dick Flynn, a tackle. Yes, a tackle., It seems Daugherty set up a "tackle eligible play" against North Carolina, placing both ends on one side of the line, thus giving Burleson, O'Hara To Challenge Snell in, Olympic Glamtuor Race . owen him a new receiver in the tackle. Flynn gained seven yarls on two aerials. Finally, there is flanker back, Dave McCormick, who doubles as a quarterback.' "They certainly don't pass as much as Air Force or Navy," com- ments Elliott. "But we have to be ready for any eventuality." Spar- tan quarterback Steve Juday is considered a good passer. State's outstanding r u n n e r seems to be sophomore right half- back, Clinton Jones. He is a 6' 1", 196 pound speedster who gained fame as a hurdler in high school. In his debut he gained 83 yards in 8 carries and scored on a 42 yard run. Others counted on are left half Dick Gordon, who saw limited action last year, Don Jap-' inga, also a halfback, and Ammon. Bobich Back Lou Bobich returns to East Lansing after a year, in which he led the Big Ten in punting with a 41.1 yard average. Bobich is also a defensive backfield regular. New to the squad this year is Dick Kenney, a barefoot booter from Hawaii who broke a Michi- gan State record last week against USC when he kicked a 49-yard field goal to put the game out of reach. The Spartan defense presents alignments which the Wolverines have not seen often. "They're as tough as they were last year," states Elliott. In 1963 State led the Big Ten in total defense and was fourth in the nation. Three quarters of the secondary returns -Bobich, Japinga, and Captain Charlie Migyanka-with 6-4 Her- man Johnson, who missed the 1963 campaign because of illness, fill- ing the remaining spot. Proebstle Hurt The line has lost the likes of Earl Lattimer and Dave Herman and replacements do not equal last year's performers. Depth at quarterback, consider- ed a strength at the beginning of the season, is seriously cut with Dick Proebstle still out with a head injury. In Ann Arbor, Elliott hopes to have the Wolverines improve their play execution. He called the of- fense against Navy "sloppy," re- fer'ing to the two fumbles and three intercepted passes which the Middies recovered. Because of c6mmitments to the World Series broadcast, there are no present plans for the game to be broadcast on television Satur- day. Sadeeki Faces Ford in Opener ST. LOUIS W) - Injured Tony Kubek was lost to the New York Yankees for the entire World Series yesterday, but the Yankees remained 9-5 favorites over the St. Louis Cardinals. Whitey Ford, the Yanks' cagey left-hander, will oppose another lefty, 23-year-old Ray Sadecki in today's opener at Busch Stadium. Kubek is out of action for two! weeks because of a jammed right wrist. This will be the 22nd Series By The Associated Press The Michigan Wolverines ad- vanced one notch in this week's Associated Press ratings as they gained seventh place by wallop- ing Navy, 21-0. Upstate rivals, the Spartans of Michigan State after upsetting Southern California 17-7 gained a tie for ninth place. The two vic- tories gave the Top Ten a thor- ough shake-up because USC and Navy had been ranked second and sixth, respectively.

KEEP AHEAD OF YOUR HAIR * NO WAITING 06 HAIRSTYLISTS "Headquarters for Collegians" THE DASCOLA BARBERS near Michigan Theatre MSU' TEXAS ON TOP: APPoll Raises 3M' One Rung EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the see ond of three preview articles on the Tokyo Olympics which begin this Saturday. By LLOYD GRAFF Since Roger Bannister collapsed over the finish line ten years ago after running the first sub-four minute mile, the mile run has be- come the glamor race in all track Meticulous planning, careful po- sitioning, and a healthy bit of gamesmanship all add to the color and excitement. But just plain speed and endurance make Peter Snell of New Zealand the heavy favorite in the metric mile at the Olympics. Snell holds the world. record in the mile at 3:54.4. Ex- pert observers believe he is cap- able of under 3:50 if he is in top shape and goes all out. The New Zealander has never run the 1500 meters in competi- tion, but projecting his times from the mile he seems to have a shot at Herb Elliott's world record set in Rome of 3:35.6. Americans Challenge The United States has the two most important challengers in. Dyrol Burleson and Tom O'Hara. Burleson does not seem to have the great speed of a Snell or El- liott, but he is as canny as they come. If oneupmanship wins gold medals, Burleson will take one. He runs to beat his opponent, not to set records. His victim so often in America has been O'Hara, the spindly little red head who travels the pave- ments of Chicago to train. He holds the American record at 3:38.1, but has been off form since the indoor season. The best European in the 1500 is Michel Jazy. However, he is running the 5000 which precludes him- from entering. Witold Baran of Poland has a 3:39.1 which makes his a contender. Watch Ryun One other runner to watch is Jim Ryun of the U.S. A high school boy from Wichita, Kan.,, he ran 3:39 to beat Jim Grelle to make the Olympic team. Most peo- ple rule him out as a ,medal win- ner, but he could easily finish in the top five. In the 3000 meter steeplechase there is one dominant figure, Gas- ton Roelants of Belgium. His world record of 8:31.8 is four seconds better than anyone else has ever done., The Russians do have a couple men who could challenge in Ivan Belyayev and Lazar Naro- ditsky. Trevor Vincent of Austra- lia is a good hurdler with speed. Jeff Fishback and George Young give the U.S. a shot at a medal. Schul in 5000 The 5000 meter run could be one of the highlights of the games for the U.S. if Bob Schul becomes the first American ever to win the event. His time of 13:38.0 is the best in the world this year, how- ever, two men from down under promise to push Schul to his limit. Ron Clarke, a seemingly tireless distance runner from Australia, has done 13:39.0 this season. Bill Baillie of New Zealand who has a 13:40 to his credit is a definite threat as is his running mate, defending champ Murray Halberg. Schul has the most powerful finishing kick ever seen in the long tiring event. If he stays close during the race he should take first at the finish. When Schul was asked what was, the difference between running the mile and running the distance events he replied, "The only dif- ference is that the pain lasts' longer." Could Lindgren Win? The pain lasts for almost a half hour in the 10,000 meter run, a real test of fortitude and guts. Clarke, Baillie, and Halberg are entered in this event as is de- fending champion Pyotr Bolotni- kov of Russia. Bolotnikov is 34, but his times this year still make him the favorite. Sixteen years his junior, wiry, frail looking Gerry Lindgren will challenge the Russian and the other veteran distance men. No- body knows what Lindgren can do against the best in the world. He has run the 10,000 just twice be- fore in competition, beating Bolot- nikov in the U.S. vs. Russia meet. He cut half a minute off his time in the second race. Lindgren will have to run another half, minute faster to win in the Olympics, Few experts think he can do it, but the spunky Spokane product has confounded everybody so far. On paper an 18 year old just cannot run distance events as well as Lindgren. But Lindgren runs on cinders, and everybody knows the unpredictability of teen-agers. The classic marathon is always up for grabs. In 1960 a barefoot Ethiopian, Abebe Bikili hotfooted home to a gold medal. He is en- tered again, but an American from North Dakota who trains in England named Buddy Edelen is given a good chance of taking first. Edelen smokes cigarettes and guzzles ale, but he was the best marathon runner in the world be- fore he was injured in June. The big question now is how well has he recovered.
