The Cornhuskers will march in- to Michigan Stadium tomorrow with an impressive 53-0 opening victory over South Dakota. Ac- cording to Don Dufek, Michigan freshman football coach who scouted Nebraska at last week's massacre, the Cornhuskers have a solid -backfield, a solid line, a good defense, and a capable quwr- terback. Bit of Both Was Nebraska that good or was South Dakota that bad? "I'd say it was a little bit of both," said Dufek. "South Dakota wasn't a good team by any stretch of the imagination; they didn't even come close. "But Nebraska looked like a good football team last Saturday," continued the Wolverine scout, "they displayed both a good of- fense and a~ good defense." The big man.in the Cornhusker offense is senior fullback Dick 'Thunder' Thornton. Thornton didn't see any action last week due to a shoulder injury. According to latest reports, Thornton will dress for tomorrow's game but it is doubtful that he will play. According to Dufek, the Corn- huskers will use a multiple-T of- fense with an unbalanced line. "They haven't got one set offense as such," said Dufek. "Very re- cently they even ran some plays out of a single-wing, but they didn't use it last week." Dufek had much praise for Ne- braska's signalcaller, Dennis Cla- ridge, a 6'3" 210-pounder. "He's a good quarterback," said Dufek, "he can both run and pass well. "They've got some good fast backs, too," said Dufek, "and they can pass as well as run." Halfback Dennis Theisen completed a pass for 14 yds. last Saturday and an- other halfback, Kent McCloughan, attempted a pass, but it was in- complete. "Of course South Dakota wasn't a real test, but Nebraska showed a good defense," said Defek. "South Dakota completed some- thing like one pass for a minus three yds.," he said commenting on the defensive secondary. According to Dufek According to Dufek, the Corn- huskers have a two-unit team. Un- like Michigan's three-platoon set- up which will have specialization, the Cornhuskers have two separate teams. "I think they will have an ad- vantage having played a game al- ready," said Dufek. "Last week they used 49 players against South Dakota. They used guys that weren't even on the roster." The Cornhuskers have a new coach and staff this season. Rob- ert S. Davaney, a native of Sag- inaw who assisted both Biggie Munn and Duffy Daugherty at Michigan State, is the new Ne- braska mentor. For the last five years he coached Wyoming -to four Skyline Conference cham- pionships. Last season Nebraska had a 3- 6-1 record but only in two games were they outclassed. Both Syra- cuse and Kansas defeated the Cornhuskers by identical 28-6 scores. They lost to Oklahoma State, 14-6, to Missouri, 10-0, to Colorado, 7-0 and Oklahoma, 21-14. Nebraska defeated North Da- kota, Kansas State and Iowa State and tied Arizona last season. Elliott Features Platoon System DENNIS CLARIDGE ...

WEEK DAYS thru next Tuesda V U /x, OPEN HOUSES - y CHICAGO (P) - Avery Brui- dage,'a life-long crusader for ama- teurism in sports, is 75 years old today and embarked on a new battle to keep the Olympic Games pure. The big,broad-shouldered inter- national Olympic committee pres- ident could pass for a man 15 or 20 years younger. He will need all his strength to enforce the new Olympic rule which bans athletes who receive college scholarships as well as those supported by gov- ernments as has been charged against Soviet Russia. Brundage has never been one to turn away from battle. Over the years he has been the target for virulent criticism as he ranged over both the American and in- ternational sports scenes cracking down on every deviation from the amateur code of conduct. He feels as strongly as ever that an amateur must be uncontamin- ated. "The commercialization of col- lege sports is a national disgrace," he says. "The vast percentage of college educators are dead against hiring college athletes. Brundage's new fight for ama- teurism stems from a spelling out by the I.O.C. of rules that will ap- ply in all future games. Among the new definitions of a professional promulgated by Brun- dage are "anyone awarded a schol- arship mainly for his athletic abil- (studies or employment) has been ity' 'and "those whose occupation interrupted for special training in a camp for over three weeks." Rigid application of the new rules could hit both the American and Russian olympicteams. En- forcement in both cases will be. up to the national Olympic com- mittees and the amateur govern- ing bodies, which in the case of the United States is the Amateur Athletic Union. Brundage a 75 faces probably the toughest fight of his life° to make the new rules stick. He's not afraid, however. A , wealthy man, the Olympic games are his way of life. He draws- no salary and even pays his own expenses to and from international meet- ings. Major League EStandings AMERICAN LEAGUE By JOHN SCOCHIN Eleven, 22, 33 Michigan foot- ball players, in three platoons marching on and off the football field throughout a crisp Satur- day afternoon. That's the new look in Michigan grid circles this fall. Coach Bump Elliott and his crew will use his first 11 men on both offense and defense. The second platoon is made up of de- fensive specialists while the third platoon will see duty only on of- fense. The starting squad will have captain Bob Brown and Jim Ward at the ends, John Houtman and Joe O'Donnell at the tackles and John Minko and John Marcum playing guard with Bill Muir at center to form the Wolverine for- ward wall. Proven Veteran Brown is a big 6'4" 226-pounder from Kalamazoo. A rugged defen- sive blocker and strong rusher the 'M' captain was also a standout pass catcher last season with espe- cially fast moves in getting free as a receiver. Starting at another position this year, Ward spent time as a half- back and a fullback before a knee injury sidelined him last fall. As- sistant Coach Jack Fouts said "Ward has good speed. If he gets a pass he'll have a good chance to break through for the long gain. As a defensive end he's smaller (at 201 lbs.) than some of the men we've had in the past, but he blocks well and hits hard." Houtman at 229 lbs. and the 219- lb. O'Donnell are lettermen at tackle. Houtman is primarily an offensive standout while O'Don- nell, recovered from last year's broken arm, is a rough-and-tum- ble line leader, who plays well both ways. Most Improved Guard Minko, at 226 lbs., ac- counted for numerous tackles in last year's games and was rated the most improved Michigan play- er at the end of spring practice. Marcum, a junior in class but a sophomore in eligibility, who injur- ed his knee in a scrimmage last fall and sat out the season, is a stocky 205-pounder with quick moves and a rugged manner. Junior Bill Muir is a newcomer at center. "Muir is a fine rusher. He blocks well and tackles hard. Although he is comparatively small at 200 lbs. he is the same type of ballplayer as Gerald Smith, Mich- igan's 190-lb. 1960 captain and All- Conference center," commented Coach Fouts. In the backfield will be veteran Dave Glinka at quarterback; Dave Raimey, who received All-Amer- ica mention, and Harvey Chapman I will be at the halfbacks with Bill Dodd at fullback. Star Caliber Raimey has looked good in every scrimmage this year. The195-lb. senior gained 496 yards and aver- STUDENT TICKET PICKUP ENDS Michigan Ticket Director Don Weir announced yesterday that today, Friday, Sept. 28, is the last day that students can pick up football tickets. Any tickets not picked up today will be sold. aged five yards per carry last season. Called by Michigan State Coach Duffy Daugherty, "one of the finest backs in collegiate foot- ball," the Dayton senior will be the Wolverines' top offensive threat this year. "Chapman has improved con- siderably over last season. He starts quick and is a strong run- ner," commented Fouts. "Dodd will be starting at fullback against Ne- braska because of Mel Ant ony's injury. Dodd is a 'heady' ball play- er with good speed who follows his blockers well. He's also a fine blocker himself," Fouts added. The defensive platoon will.have Jim Conley -and Bill Laskey at the ends, Tom Keating and Arnie Simkus at the tackles, Rich Hahn and Dave Kurtz at guard and Jim Green at center. Safety Men Defensive backfield duties will be handled by letterman Jack Stro- bel, Dick Rindfuss and Wayne Sparkman. Fouts said "Rindfuss is a very promising sophomore. He's good sized at 188-lbs., fast and strong!' The third platoon jof offensive specialists consists of Ben Farabee and Ron Kocan at end, Jerry Mad- er and Dick Schram at tackle, Dave Kovacevich and letterman Lou Pavloff at guard, and Don Blanchard at center. Letterman Bob Chandler or Frosty Evashevski will call the sig- nals with veteran Eddie Hood and Tom Prichard at halfback and Dodd at fullback, after Anthony recovers. 2- P.M. 7-10 PAAMcIi 7 10 P.
