I PAGE SIX THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 18,194 ,,A Farabee Shuns Hero's Role OSU Readies Massive Deterrent * By BOB CARNEY Two seasons ago, a sophomore end named Ben Farabee stepped into the Michigan limelight with a 43 yard interception return against Illinois. Picking it off on the Illinois 44, Farabee raced to the one yard line to set up Michigan's second score and a 14-10 victorys Since that game, the limelight has eluded Farabee, and the start- ing li'neup has only infrequently included his name. For this rea- son there's been a temptation to overlook him when talk centers on the key factors in Michigan's success. In the eyes of the Michigan coaches, however, Farabee's role in making the Wolverines a title contender has been much more significant. Potential Starter "Ben's been a potential starter for the past two years," says end coach Jocko Nelson. "He's always been one of our top ends. But his versatility has made him more valuable to us as an alternate. He plays not only offense and defense, but both left and right end as well." The '64 season has seen added improvement in Farabee, who spent the latter part of last sea- son on the sidelines mending a broken wrist. According to Nel- son, Farabee is playing more con- sistently than ever. "Ben has reached his peak," says Nelson. "As a result, we felt that he deserved the added rec- ognition of a starting spot against Iowa. But whether he's starting or not, there's been a place in every'game for him." In Farabee's own mind, his im- Pep Rally. There will be a pep rally on the Diag Thursday evening at 7:30.

Blocking Improves "First, I think the platoon sys- tem has helped me," Farabee says. "Specialization has given more of us a chance to play. Secondly, I think my blocking has improved this year." Farabee's added blocking skill has been attributed by his coaches to the determination he has ex- hibited over the past two years. "He's a hustler," says Nelson. "It's a familiar sight to see num- ber 80 downfield rolling at some- one." Head Coach Bump Elliott adds that "Farabee's one of the hard- est workers we've had." In reward for thee efforts, Far- abee has played extensively on both the offense and the defense since his sophomore year. Of the two, he prefers defense. "On defense," says Farabee, "you know your job, and they've got to move you. Actually, they are on the defensive." Offensive Start Last Saturday, however, Fara- bee held down the starting spot at the left offensive end. In the Michigan offensive setup the left end1 remains tight while the right end is split. Farabee favors this tight position to the publicized split end spot, which is utilized more often as a pass receiver. "There's more action inside, and the tight end is inside most of the time," says Farabee. "And I'd rather be blocking then catch- ing passes anyway." Farabee began playing end - and football-as a freshman at By JIM TINDALL "Something's got to give" as the powerful Wolverine offense squares off against the "monster" OSU defense this weekend. "Ohio State is an extremely strong defensive team," explained head coach Bump Elliott yester- day. "Their particular forte is rushing defense, and they are one of the leaders in that de- partment. The statistics certainly bear Elliott out on this point, for while Michigan has consistenly rolled up around 250 yards rushing per game, leading the nation in this department for the past two weeks, the Buckeyes have limited their conference opponents to a scant 77 yards a game. SECOND WEEK IN A ROW: AP Poll Ranks Blue Ahead of Buckeyes The burden of the game might be pushed more on the shoulders of the defense Saturday, for two of the Buckeyes offensive back- field starters are out of acLion. Willard Sander, leading scorer for OSU, will see limited action due to injuries received in the North- western game last week. He will be relieved by sophomore Paul Judson, who saw his first action against the Wildcats last Saturday. Barrington Out Tom Barrington, starting, 216 pound halfback, will definitely be out. of the lineup, and his slot w: ll be filled by Leon Lindsay, a 180 pound senior. Lindsay did not play at all last season, and has been used by Hayes only sparingly thin year. With two starters out, quarter- back Don Unverferth and halfback Bob Rein will have to assume a greater percentage of the offen- sive chores. Unverferth scored the touch- down that beat the Wolverines 14-10 in Ann Arbor last year. As a passer, the 208 pound junior has averaged over 7.5 yards per completion, which is tops in the conference. In total offense he has averaged better than 5.5 yards in the Big Ten in that category Rapid Rein Rein is only a sophomore and he has been averaging in the neighborhood of 4 yards per carry all season. He has good speed and is a deceptive runner. The Buckeyes use a platoon sys- tem and have ten lettermen in the starting defensive positions. The lone exception is John Fill, a sophomore halfback. The defensive right tackle will probably be Ed Orazen, 6', 228 pounds, who started both his sophomore and junior years but missed last year's Michigan con- test for disciplinary reasons. Guarding the Middle Bill Ridder, who saw his first starting assignment in the Michi- gan game last fall, will start at middle guard. The other linebacking chores will be handled by Tom Bugel and Dwight Kelly. Bugel saw consid- erable aclion last year and doabies as an offensive center. The secondary consists of Arnie that spot, Doug Drenik, a two year veteran, Don Harkins, a two year man who led last year's team in interceptions, and Fill. While the defense has been a strongpoint of the OSU team, Elliott was quick to point out that their offense, "regardless of vnom they have starting," is a strong one. Unverferth has completed over fifty per cent of his passes, and the line, at 215 ihunds per man, can open up the holes their runners need. Hayes certainly will miss the loss, or partial loss, of two mem- bers of his offensive backfield, but the Buckeyes have according to Elliott, "plenty of good men that they can throw into action. Practice Notes The Wolverines went through a routine practice yesterday, work- ing against OSU plays and de- fenses. Practice ended with a 10 minute scrimmage between the first string defense and the re- serves who ran Buckeye plays. per play, good enough for second Chonko, a three year veteran in -Daily-Jim Lines MICHIGAN END BEN FARABEE snares a pass in the Wol- verines' 19-12 victory over Minnesota. The senior from Holland (Mich.) claims that he prefers tight end to the more head line making position of split "end. Versatile Farabee is equally at home on defense as on offense. By The Associated Press Michigan held down sixth place in the Associated Press college football poll again this week, after defeating Iowa 34-20. With only one game left in the season, against Ohio State, the Wolverines have a 7-1 record. Seventh ranked Ohio State, re- bounding from its sole defeat to Penn State, blanked Northwestern 10-0 last Saturday. Undefeated Notre Dame's im- pressive 34-7 victory over Mich- igan State enabled the Fighting Irish to increase their hold on first place with only two weeks left before the national titleholder is crowned. Louisiana State, which beat Mississippi State 14-10, advanced one notch to eighth. Syracuse and Oregon took over the last two spots, replacing Oregon State and. Georgia Tech. Syracuse beat Virginia Tech 20-15 and moved into the number nine position. Oregon took over the tenth spot with a 29-21 conquest of Indiana. Oregon State, eighth a week ago, was beaten by Stan- ford 16-7 and Georgia Tech, tenth last week, dropped a 24-7 verdict to second-ranked Alabama. Only three among the top five teams are scheduled this Saturday. Notre Dame plays Iowa, Arkansas meets Texas Tech and Nebraska closes its season against Okla- homa.

He credits his first coach there, Ed Damson as the one who inspired him to go on in football, after giving him a strong training in the fundamentals of the game. Three Offers Partly because of this early training, Farabee received three college offers when he graduat- ed from Holland. Besides Michi- gan, Northwestern and Western Michigan were after him. His de- cision to attend Michigan was based on several factors. "Of course the academic stand- ing at Michigan was a major factor," says Farabee, "but it was the coaching staff that really sold me. I think the coaches here are one of the main reasons athletes choose Michigan.", Another reason for Farabee's choice of Michigan was the fact that Michigan had finished the 1959 season with a losing 4 and 5 season, and the opportunity to play looked good. Likes Big Ten "Finally, I had always had a desire to play in the Big Ten," Farabee adds. "I still believe it ranks with any football in the country." "Theyfriendships I've made on the. team are one of the biggest rewards," he says. "And the thrill of playing against All- Americans like Dick Butkus, Pat Richter and Roger Staubach has been another. You find that while it's a real challenge to oppose them, it isn't impossible to han- dle them."

For the third straight week the Wolverines are leading the nation in rushing. Grounding out an av- erage of 253.3 yards a game, the powerful Michigan rushing attack has been the key factor in bring- ing the Wolverines a 7-1 record.- Ranked fifth in total offense, the Wolverines have chalked up a total of 364.3 yards a game. Following close behind Michigan in rushing, Syracuse has driven for 243.3 yards, a game, and Ne- braska is averaging 242.1 yards on the ground. The Tulsa Hurricanes, led by the accurate spirals of quarterback Jerry Rhome, have pulled far out in front of the pack in total of- fense. The undefeated Hurricanes have gained 475 yards a game. Notre Dame, with an average of 409.6 yards to its credit, is Tulsa's closest contender. The Hurricanes, with two games to play, already have surpassed three NCAA major college records. They have pitched for 2,604 yards, 202 completions, and 29 touch- downs, wiping out two marks they set in 10 games last year. Those were 2,448 yards passing and 199 completions. Nevada in 1948 and Kentucky in 1950 had 27 touch- down passes.
