the finest Michigan team since
the Crisler era. It could very
easily win the remainder of its
games." In recent years Purdue
has been known for its stunning
upsets, but Mollenkopf could only
reply: "It seems to me that every
time we win it's considered an
upset."
Trailing 21-14 at the end of
three periods, Michigan attempted
to pull the game out of the fire
as it had done last week in its
17-10 victory over Michigan State.
The Wolverines began a drive at
their 40-yard line following a
Purdue .punt. A key play in this
series was a seven-yard pass from
Timberlake to end Ben Farabee
where a pass interference call
against Purdue further up-field
gave Michigan an 18-yard gain to
the Boilermaker 39. Halfback Jim
Detwiler three plays later carried
eight yards to the Purdue three,
but the pigskin slipped away and
defensive end Harold Wells fell
on it in the end zone for a touch-
back, thus ending Michigan's
threat.
Staunch Defense
Purdue was unable to move the
ball, though, against the tough
Michigan forward wall, and was
forced to punt to the Michigan 36.
The Wolverines picked up a
first down in three plays. Timber-
lake on the next play rolled to
his left and assisted by a key

block from teammate end Steve
Smith picked his way between
tacklers to race 54 yards for Michi-
gan's final tally with about seven
minutes left in the game.
Trailing by only one point now,
Michigan decided to go for broke.
Timberlake ran right and elected
to run for the two-point conver-
sion, but he was stopped on the
one-yard line.
Head coach Bump Elliott re-
marked later, "We had to go for
the two points because we wanted
to win this one right there."
The Boilermakers were unable
to move the ball once again fol-
lowing the kickoff and punted to
the Michigan 42 with about four
minutes remaining in the game.
The Wolverines ripped off 23 yards
in four plays to the Purdue 39,
but on the next play, Timberlake
pitched to sophomore fullback
Dave Fisher, who fumbled, with
Wells once again recovering for
Purdue, thus ending Michigan's
last serious threat.
Purdue Punts
Too much time remained in the
game for Purdue to run out the
clock, so ace punter Russ Pfahler
booted to the Michigan 12-yard
line, where the Maize and Blue
were unable to gain a first down
and thus allowed Purdue to run
out the last few seconds of play.
Michigan took the game's open-
ing kickoff and marched 71 yards
in nine plays for the first score
of the game. The first play from
scrimmage was a dandy, similar
to the winning play last week,
with halfback Dick Rindfuss pass-
ing upfield to halfback Jim Det-
wiler, who picked up blockers and
raced 47 yards before being hauled
down on the Purdue 24. It took
seven more plays before Timber-
lake went around right end for
four yards and the tally, and then
kicked the conversion to give his
team a quick 7-0 lead.
Purdue Ties Score
Purdue came back late in the
same period to tie it up when
Griese stepped back on his own
34 and lofted a long pass down-
field to halfback Jim Morel. Morel
gathered in the ball at the Mich-
igan 18-just a step ahead of de-
fenders Rick Volk and Rick Sygar
-and outraced them to the goal
line. This represented the first
"bomb" completed against Mich-
igan this year.
Purdue kicked off as the second
period began, and Michigan be-
gan a ten-play, 68-yard scoring
drive. Left end Steve Smith, the
hero on this series, completed a
26-yard pass play to the Boiler-
maker 41, and later-all alone in
the end zone-snared the scoring
pass from Timberlake.
Michigan regained possession of
the ball on its own 10-yard line
after Purdue was forced to punt
following the next kickoff. But
four plays later, with the ball on
the 31, Timberlake was chased

it from Timberlake's semi-cocked

Michigan was moving in for a
score, trailing 21-14 in the last
