Michigan can capture the title: outright by beating Iowa today and Ohio State next Saturday if Purdue loses or ties one of its last two games. The Boilermakers, tied with the Wolverines for sec- ond place with a 4-1 record, play Minnesota and Indiana away from home in their last two con- tests. Ohio with a favorite State, leading the Big Ten 4-0 mark, is a 16-point over Northwestern today. The Buckeyes can be knocked out of the top spot in the conference with just one loss since they play one less league game than either Michigan or Purdue. The game today in Iowa City will be a battle between offensive giants-Michigan on the ground and Iowa in the air. Michigan leads the nation in rushing of- fense with an average of 256.7 yards per game. Iowa is the No. 2 passing team in the country, av- eraging 260.1 yards per game.

Ends Tony Giacobazzi and Dick O'Hara have combined for another 22 catches, putting three Hawkeyes in the top eight posi- tions in the Big Ten in this de- partment. Timberlake, halfback Carl Ward, and fullback Anthony are fourth, sixth, and eighth, respectively, in IOWA under Forrest Evashevski. When Elliott came to Michigan in 1958, Burns moved up to Elliott's for- mer position of backfield coach and succeeded Evashevski as head coach in 1960. The two coaches have had teams facing each other three Michigan won 23-14 in 1961, lost times when both were head ciaches. The record is 1-1-1. 28-14 in 1962, and the two teams ties 21-21 last season. -Daily-Bruce Taylor BOB TIMBERALKE STICKS to the ground on this play in last year's 21-21 tie with the Hawkeyes as Tom Keating (79) prepares to take Ivory McDowell (11) out of the play. Iowa will be trying to stop the powerful running of the senior signal caller as well as his passing to upset the Wolverines. Timberlake needs just over 300 yards in his remaining two games to become Michigan's all-time leader in the to al offense department. The maize and blue need a victory today to stay in con- tention for the Rose Bowl bid, for which Purdue and Ohio State are still vying. .Dick O'Hara (188) Bob Ziolkowski (262) John Biland (238) Dave Recher (2.19) Bernard Budzick (201) Leo Miller (240) Tony Giacobazzi (213) Gary Snook (181) Dalton Kimble (161) Craig Norse (170) Karl Noonan (176) LE LT LG C RG R T RE .QB LH RH FB MICHIGAN Steve Smith Charles Kines Dave Butler Brian Patchen John Marcum Tom Mack John Henderson Bob Timberlake Jim Detwiler Carl Ward Mel Anthony (230) (230) (215) (205) (205) (220) (186) (210) (210) (179) (201) I- Chuck says Clay Stricken with Hernia; Title Fight To Be. Delayed he paid 300 bucks less for his Coronet than you did for that turtle. BOSTON OP) - Heavyweight champion Cassius Clay was stricken with a hernia attack Friday night and rushed to Boston City Hospital. Dr. Nathan Shapiro, physician for the Massachusetts Boxing Commission, said an operation would be performed immediately. Clay's title fight with former champion, Sonny Liston, sched- uled for Monday night in Boston Garden, was postponed indefin- itely. Dr. Shapiro said that Clay will have to be in the hospital about 10 days and will be laid up about six weeks. He added it would be at least seven or eight weeks before Clay will be able to resume training. The commission physician said there was no sign of a hernia at all when he examined the heavy- weight champion on Monday. Shapiro said the operation should take about 40 minutes. It was his guess Clay will not be able to fight for at least six months. of yours i i draft beer in b/ototles You really know how to hurt a guy "Chuck's a swinger," says she. "His Coronet is quick and clean, with a lean and hungry look It's equipped with a 426 cubic inch mill that will mock your turtle at the strip or on the street. He's got four-on-the-floor, buckets, belts, carpets, console, spinners, and a padded dash. And he said that everything but the four-speed stick and the 426 was standard." Then she broke his back by asking, "Didn't you pay extra for some of that jazz?" Don't let the truth hurt you. Better see the all-new, hot new Dodge Coronet before you buy a (cuckoo), a (cuckoo-cuckoo), or even a (cuckao-cuckoo-cuckoo).
