THE MICHIGAN DAILY TUSDAY, OCTOER 9, 1962 TO SURPRISI 1:1 Gm7 s MSU Keeps Practice Secret Platoons Pay Dividends for Wolverines i By The Associated Press EAST LANSING-- Michigan State apparently is working on a secret weapon this week in prep- aration for Saturday's traditional football game with arch-rival Michigan. Coach Duffy Daugherty closed the practice field to all but team members. "We're shutting out the world," said Daugherty. "We want to be alone in our preparations." Daugherty termed the Michigan game the most important one on the fall schedule. He said it also could be the most important one since he became head coach. The Spartans defeated North Carolina, 38-6, last weekend. * * * MINNEAPOLIS - Four players off Minnesota's first two units were nursing injuries yesterday as the Gophers began preparations ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS PHYSICISTS NORDEN DIVISION United Aircraft Corporation will interview on October 10, 1962 Career positions in research, Devel. opment, Design and Manufactur- ing in areas such as: Fire Control Systems , Radar Systems' Data Processing Equipment 1 Inertial Guidance Systems Television Systems Aircraft Instrumentation Navigation Systems Precision Components Solid State Devices Arrange an interview through your ' Placement Officer, or write to Mr. James E.

All-America tackle Bobby Bell has a nasty cut on his hand, tackle Milt Sunde a sprained knee, guard Willie Costanza a bruised shoulder and quarterback Paul Ramseth a charley horse. However, all are ex- pected to be ready for the Wildcat invasion. There were no lineup changes following Saturday's 21-0 victory over Navy. * * * E V A N S T O N- Northwestern went through an intensive anti- fumble drill yesterday. Coach Ara Parseghian hopes to correct loose ball handling that has seen the Wildcats fumble 10 times in the first two games this season. Starting guard Jack Cvercko did not take part in contact work be- cause of a sprained right shoulder. He will be ready for Minnesota Saturday. * * * CHAMPAIGN-Bill Minor, who started the season as a fullback and was shifted to end two weeks ago, was switched to right tackle yesterday by Illinois Coach Pete Elliott. Minor, a sophomore from Chi- cago, was one of four players who were boosted to the No.' one unit. The others were guard Archie Sut- ton, end Lynn Stewart and half- back Cecil Young. S* a COLUMBUS-Ohio State's sur- prised Buckeyes went through a light workout yesterday as Coach Woody Hayes began work to put' a scoring punch back into his squad. Ohio State was stopped repeat- edly near the goal line in its 9-7' loss to UCLA Saturday. Earlier in the day, Hayes commented at a press luncheon: "That's the-best game we ever, played-and lost. Our own success-, ful offense beat us, in a way. We wore ourselves out going up and down the field. Our big mistakes were made by the backs, and since I coach the backs I must take the blame." There were no indications of any changes to come before the Bucks journey to Illinois for their Big Ten opener Saturday. MADISON-Wisconsin's football team ran through ashort loosen- ing-up drill yesterday and then went inside to see movies of its 30- 6 Big Ten victory over Indiana last Saturday. The Badgers came through the contest in good physical shape with only co-captain Steve Underwood showing any battle marks. Under- wood received a gash on his fore- head but will be ready Saturday when Wisconsin takes on Notre Dame here in a non-conference affair. * * * IOWA CITY-The Iowa Hawkeyes started preparations yesterday for Saturday's Big Ten football clash at Indiana, with the availability of quarterback Matt Szykowny still in doubt. Szykowny suffered a torn knee ligament in Saturday's game with Southern California. Coach Jerry Burns said he hoped the quarter- back will be out only a few days, but said he is readying sopho- more quarterbacks Bob Wallace and Fred Riddle just in case. In addition to Szykowny, four other Hawkeyes were out with in- juries yesterday. Fullback Bill Perkins and halfback Monty Rog- ers suffered bruised knees in Sat- urday's game, halfback Pa u 1 Krause has a bruised back and tackle George Latta suffered a sprained ankle. Burns said he hopes all four will be ready for Saturday's game. LAFAYETTE-The Purdue Boil- ermakers worked out in sweat clothes yesterday and began plan- ning defenses for Saturday's home opener against a versatile Miami (Ohio) squad which is unbeaten. The only major injury reported after Purdue's 24-6 win over No- tre Damie last Saturday was a se- vere knee bruise suffered by Don Brooks, starting left end. Sopho- more Clarence Foster took over his spot for yesterday's workout. BLOOMINGTON - Coach Phil Dickens yesterday set a practice week concentrated on fundamen- tals for his Indiana football squad, which was whipped 30-6 by Wis- consin Saturd'ay. "We made too many critical er- rors of a fundamental nature, not- ably in covering kicks," Dickens said. The coach said the Hoosiers will have to do a better job against Iowa hereSaturday "or we'll have similar results." I { } By STAN KUKLA Michigan revealed a new look in its football team last Saturday as it rolled over the Army Cadets, 17-7. The projected three - platoon system became a reality then. Coach Bump Elliott did not use the platoons in the Nebraska loss but decided that the week's extra practice had helped his platoons jell into working units. Satur- day's game proved he was right. The biggest surprise of the game was the third unit, the Raiders, a name first used by Elliott four years ago when last he went with three platoons. Bright Yellow Badges Assistant Coach Bob Hollway came up with the idea of sewing a bright yellow badge on the jer- seys of the members of the Raid- ers (the Army third platoon, the Chinese Bandits, is identified by a red Bandit patch which is sewn onto each of its members' jerseys). The Raiders' insignium is a Wolverine. Hollway thought that the patch would "help to perk the boys up." It sure did. Like the Bandits, the Raiders are primarily a defensive unit. However, they usurped a little of the other two platoons' glory Sat- urday by being on the field when the Wolverines notched their sec- ond touchdown. The improvement of Saturday's team over the team that fell to f - ON REBOUND-Both coaches called this third-quarter pass inter- ception the key play in the Wolverines' 17-7 win over the Cadets. In tufs picture Michigan's Jack Strobel (42) stretches for the ball tipped up by teammate Dave Glinka (behind Strobel). Talk to the business that offers...

Glinka (24) looks on. Army had driven yds. to the Michigan six, fith the score only 10-0, but the work of Glinka and Strobel killed4 the Cadets' first big threat of the game. Stichweh later returned a punt 73 yds. for Army's only toe down. Onl4j I Z1 / e~t! TO ENROLL FOR S TUDENT angs Ar- 55 off h- , Nebraskathe weekend before was more than minor. The vaunted Black Knight attack was stopped cold as it gained only 36 yds. in the air and added just 92 more on the ground. "I couldn't even begin to say how improved we were," Elliott said. "I do know we grew up mentally in this game. We're not kids anymore."' The quarterbacking position still remained undecided in the Wol- verine camp as all four again had the chance to display their talents against Army, Chandler Hits Bob Chandler was in for only one play but he completed a pass to Jim Conley for 10 yds. Dave Glinka ran the No. One unit and completed three out of five for 18 yds. Bob Timberlake, who quar- terbacks the Raiders when they have the ball on offense, and Frosty Evashevski alternate- at that slot on the second unit. Evashevski completed one of three and Timberlake was one for one. The Wolverines moved the ball best on the ground. They spiked up the turf for a total of 276 yds. Dave Raimey (who else?) led the earth-eaters with 89 yds. and anaverage of 4.2 yds. per carry. Also revealed in the game was a new "toe" -- Timberlake. He's now three for three in the point- after-touchdown game and also has a field goal to his credit. Practice Notes Everything is pointing to THE game next Saturday against Mich- igan State.. Yesterday the players watched films of the Spartan's 38-6 romp over the North Carolina Tar Heels. They also listened to the scouting reports. The only changes Elliott envi- sions are the inclusion of sopho- more fullback Mel Anthony, who saw some action against Army, and senior halfbackEd Hood in the attack next Saturday. Both were- out with injuries. The squad then retired to the practice field where they worked out lightly in the steady drizzle. Coruhuskers Have Worries LINCOLN, Neb.(P)-"The train- ers now have about the same size squad as we have on the field," Nebraska football Coach Bob De- vaney quipped yesterday. Devaney was bemoaning his heavy injury list which includes not- only Bill (Thunder) Thorn- ton, top Husker fullback who has a sprained ankle, but also guard Gary Toogood, halfbacks Dave Theisen and Dennis Steuwe and co-captain D w a i n Carlson, a guard, all members of top Husker units. Nebraska handed the Wolver- ines their opening-game defeat, 25-13, and is beginning to answer the non-believers. The Huskers' win over Iowa State Saturday gave them a 3-0 season record. JACK STROBEL ... key interception Mollenkopf Gives Credit To i Ten CHICAGO JP)-The Big Ten, with a mediocre 10-5-2 record against non-conference foes so far this season, will wind up with two or three teams among football's top ten, Purdue Coach Jack Mol- lenkopf predicted yesterday. "And in the Rose Bowl, the Big Ten representative will give a good account of itself," added Mollen- kopf, speaking at Chicago's Ameri- can Quarterback Club. OSU Dumped Four Big Ten defeats and one tie have been against teams of the West Coast Big Six. Purdue and Washington played a 7-7 tie. Washington defeated I11inois, Stanford downed Michigan State, and last week USC trimmed Iowa and UCLA upset the nation's No. one-ranked team, Ohio State. "Coach Woody Hayes took his Ohio State boys out to the Coast as early as Wednesday last week," Mollenkopf said. "I hear they went to Disneyland on Thursday and toured Hollywood on Friday. On Saturday they couldn't get the job done against UCLA. II Duce "They tell me that Woody was plenty mad after the game and looked just like Mussolini. Ohio State will bounce back this week. I know what poor Pete (Pete El- liott of Illinois) is in for. "We are fortunate to come out with a tie at Washington, which has as much speed as you'll find in the country. "But Saturday after Saturday, you see the finest football played in the Big Ten and when the sea- son is all over the conference will have two or three teams in the top l0. HEALTH INSUANC .10.
