SUNDAY, OCTOBER. 7,196% THE MICHIGAN DAILY Wolverines Outscore Cadets for Season's Firs st Win . WINKS THINKS By Jan Winkelman Taste of Honey WEATHER: fair and mild. Temperature: 72 degrees. Wind: 5-10 miles per hour from the southwest. One couldn't expect a finer day for football. The fans settled back and prepared to take advan- tage of the weather. "It does not matter so much who wins as how the game is played." "Pass the cider." When Army won the toss, people kind of figured that the die was cast. Bob Brown was sure carrying a tradition to its limit; after all, you HAVE to win a toss once in a while. Even the law of averages seemed to be on vacation yesterday . .. for a while. Then POW. After a penalty-ridden exchange of downs, the big break came. Despite Bump Elliott's contention that "Jack Strobel's interception was the turning point of the game," Michigan had gained the upper hand. When Army halfback Carl Stichweh fumbled Joe O'Donnell's fourth down punt on his own 32 yard line, the Wolverines had metamorphosed. Bob Brown's recovery of the fumble culminated in Strobel's plunge for the first Wolverine touchdown. The Maize and Blue began to look like a football team. "Maybe today will be the day." "Pass the cider." The rest of the contest, if it could correctly be termed a "con- test," is now history. The line was punching. The "Raiders" were on their toes. Raimey was holding on to the pigskin. And most important, the defensive line was breaking through and coming .down with a sorely awaited attack of "acute, clean tackling," long overdue. However, in the process some pretty weird things were going on, if one had the inclination to notice. Elliott Uses Three Platoons with Success; Raimey, Strobel Score M' Touchdowns (Continued from Page 1) plays later Strobel 'cracked off right tackle for the score. Sohpo- more quarterback Bob Timberlake converted and it was 7-0, for the first Michigan lead of the season. Picking up momentum, the Wol- verines upped the count to 10-0 early in the second period on a 25-yd. field goal by Timberlake. Aided By Penalties Michigan had pushed 82 yds. in 14 plays aided by two personal foul penalties against the Cadets to the Army seven, but Dave Glinka's third down pass went wild and the Wolverines settled for three. Michigan missed another scor- ing opportunity later in the per- iod when Arnie Simkus recovered Art "Cammy" Lewis' bobble on the Army 21, when sophomore Dick Rindfuss fumbled two plays later. Chapman's interception set up the final Michigan score. The stocky junior, who lost his start- ing position to Strobel, gathered in a Lewis pass at the Michigan 31 yd. line and galloped 32 yds. to the Army 37. In Five Plays The Wolverines scored in five plays, the big one an 18 yd. burst by Bill Dodd to the Army 14. From there, Timberlake got one, and then Dave Raimey took it in in two plays, both six yard blasts off Michigan's left side. Timberlake again converted-and he's three for three plus a field goal. And who misses Doug Bickle? The victory was Michigan's fourth straight over the West Pointers. The fumble has played a major role in all of them, after the Cadets had rolled up a 5-0 se- ries advantage in the middle and late forties. Until today, the Cadets had played almost errorless football, fumbling only twice and covering both themselves. They had not had a pass intercepted. Snatched Second Besides the two key intercep- tions, Timberlake grabbed one late in the fourth quarter and Chap- man snatched his second on the last play of the game. Nevertheless, it was the forward pass that gave the Wolverines their most anxious moment. Leading 17- 7 with about four minutes left in the game, Michigan let end Bob Bedell open on the Michigan 30. Bedell, however, who Dietzel calls "one of the best receivers on the Army team," dropped Lewis' per- fect pass and for all intents and purposes that was the ball game. From then to the end the Wol- verines, who had played rough, ag- gressive football the whole game- picking up 137 yds. in penalties- settled down to run out the clock. There wasn't much Army could do. As far as that goes, there wasn't much they could do from the start. Cadets Crumble MICH.

The game officials were literally obsessed with this flag-throwing phenomenon. In the first quarter, play stopped a total of four times on account of penalties. In the second quarter, the astounding total of eight misdemeanors were registered. In the press box, writers and broad- casters began to thumb through the record books. Halftime ran too smoothly. Despite Michigan's 10-0 lead, fans could no't quite appreciate the festivities. Things were too good to be true. And how about that card section? From the Press Box they looked a lot better than in the past two years. Even Bruce Fisher's fanfare group was equalling the halftime antics of those colorful cadets across the field. Pete Cox' cheerleaders were exuberant. Great Expectations.. . WHEN WOULD the bubble burst? The .third quarter got underway and the apprehension mounted. After an unsuccessful drive that sputtered, Joe O'Donnell lifted a beautiful punt down to the Army 17 yd. line that, unfortunately, became nullified by an offside penalty. His subsequent kick rolled dead on the Army 39 yd. line. The Army attack began to click; five first downs brought the ball to the Michigan ten with a first and ten situation. But just when the roof was about to cave in, Dave Glinka tipped a Joe Blackgrove pass into the hands of Jack Strobel. "Hey, pass that cider." "That was the turning point," commented Bump Elliott. Bump was right; the game turned out to be a pretty crazy affair though. Five penalties in the third and four more in the final .quarter brought the game total to an astounding 21. The Wolverines were reprimanded for 137 yards and Army received 45. Army Coach Paul Dietzel was particularly dismayed by his passing attack. Army quarterbacks completed a total of eight passes: equally distributed between cadets and Wolverines! Frustrated by a team prone to fumbles, interceptions, and apathy Coach Dietzel epitomized the contest when he said: "This was a crazy game. In our two previous games we didn't fumble or have a pass intercepted once. Not today. It's awful nice to win. It's terrible to lose." Despite the crazy combinations of fumbles and interceptions yesterday, Michigan came out ahead and that's what counts. But remember, next week is Michigan State. Lightning seldom strikes twice.
