JIM BERGER It was second down and 11 yds. to go on the Wisconsin 48 when Michigan quarterback Bob Chand- ler dropped back to pass late in the first period last Saturday. Bob Timberlake, Michigan's con- verted halfback, was open and the play was good for 35 yds. to the Wisconsin 13. Three plays later, Dave Raimey crossed the goal line, and Michigan Stadium went wild. The Wolverines, scoreless in three Big Ten games, were leading the Badgers, 12-7. - *' * As was expected, Michigan lost to Wisconsin. The final score was 34-12. The superior Badger line wore Michigan down and scored 20 points in the final quarter. However, Michigan finally show- ed an offense, and Coach Bump Elliott finally found a quarterback. Vied with Glinka Chandler started his college ca- reer two years ago. He and Dave Glinka, both sophomores, were vie- ing for quarterback. In the second game of the season at Michigan State, Chandler was successfully moving Michigan when he was dropped by a jarring tackle and carried off the field. Chandler was out with a knee injury. "It was as bad a knee in- jury as you can get," said A. W. Coxan, M.D., Michigan team phy- sician. "He completely tore the ligament, and surgery was neces-; sary. It is very similiar to (John)+ Houtman's and Glinka's injuries this season," Dr. Coxan said. The sophomore from LaGrange, Ill., was granted another year of+ eligibility, but last year was any- thing but successful for him. The FINALLY GETS CHANCE-Bob Chandler, junior quarterback, who is at last a solid starter after two years of waiting, is shown here completing a pass to one of his predecessors at quarter- back, Bob Timberlake. This was one of the 11 passes he com- pleted out of 18 attempts in Saturday's losing effort against Wisconsin. - 6'3" 199 lb. signalcaller spent said Chandler. "I worked on the most of his time on the Michigan docks in Chicago during the sum- bench. His major accomplishment mer and also worked out with my was the completion of a picture high school team." touchdown bomb to Bob Brown n For the Wolverines, the season the Army game. has been just one humiliation aft- er another with the exception of Army. Elliott couldn't muster any kind of an offense. In the Minne- sota game, Chandler came in late in the game and moved the Wol- verines to their furthest penetra- tion in three Conference games. 'Gave Me Confidence' BOB CHANDLER ... new star at helm "Playing as much as I did in the Minnesota game gave me some of the confidence I needed," Chandler said. "I never had much game experience and it helped me quite a bit." Elliott was also pleased with Chandler's performance against the Gophers. "Bob moved the team well, and although I don't doubt that in that stage of the game another of our quarterbacks could have done as well, I think it gave Bob the confidence he needed." Rewarded . . . Chandler was rewarded by get- ting the starting role against Wis- consin last Saturday, and after two discouraging years, Chandler was finally given the chance to prove himself. The results justified Elliott's de- cision. He passed 18 times and completed 11 for 120 yds. Twice, he set up Michigan scores with passes. His toss to sophomore Jim Conley for 16 yds. set up Michi- gan's, first, and ,the Timberlake pass set up the second. "I got very good protection," said Chandler. "I think it was the best protection any quarterback has gotten all year." Chandler is and always has been primarily a passer. "I never ran much in high school," said Chand- ler. "My coach was a Northwest- ern man and we used a split-T of- fense with emphasis on passing. It is sort of like our pro-type ot- fense at Michigan." As for the knee, it is fully re- covered, but Chandler still has it taped for games and practices. "I kept it taped last year because I didn't think it was fully recovered. I keep it taped now as a safety precaution." Elliott is pleased with Chandler. "Bob played well last Saturday and we are counting ton him against Illinois." After two up-hill years, number 20, Bob 'Chandler has finally emerged as Michigan's number one quarterback.

"After the injury, the thought of giving up football went through my mind because I never felt I was going to play. I was quite dis- couraged." At the start of this season, things looked brighter for Chand- ler. Michigan would be counting on him for his passing ability. "I thought I was in pretty good shape when the season began," ,,I 11 SCOUTING REPORT-ILLINOIS: Daring Ilni Loom Dangerous Join the parad to A Arbor Special checking acc money orders and tra checks are only a few services you'll find des to serve your studentI ing needs. le BankT ounts, velers of the igned bank- I field resigned yesterday as head coach of the oft-losing Los An- geles Rams.

LOUIS (P)-Branch Rickey's proposal to retire St. Louis Card- inal outfielder Stan Musial is the apparent cause of a major dis- agreement with baseball Cardinal general manager Bing Devine. Club president August A. Busch Jr. said yesterday that Stan Musial not only will play with the Card- inals in 1963 but Musial will be- come a Cardinal vice president when he decides to retire. "That is hard .to believe because both Bing and Johnny Keane said they were counting on me. I won't retire. Not in the good shape I'm in. If the Cardinals don't want me, I know some other clubs that do," Musial said By STAN KUKLA In the closing minutes of last Saturday's game, the Purdue Boil- ermakers found themselves on the short end of a 14-10 score in their contest with the Illinois Orange and Blue. The Illini were forced to punt with the clock showing three min- utes left to play. Quarterback Mike Taliaferro's punt was short and the Boilermakers had the ball at the mid-field stripe. After three plays, Ron DiGravio was faced with a fourth-and-fifteen situa- tion. He faded back to pass, saw that his receivers were covered, with the hard-charging Illini line bearing down on him. Suddenly . . . An Opening Suddenly he saw an opening and cut down the center of the field. He was hit but managed to pull away and rail the ball all the way to the 16-yd. line, for a first down and a possible score. After three plays, DiGravio again found himself in the same position. It was fourth and not a few yards to go. Again he faded back to pass. Again his receivers were covered. This time he didn't get away. The Illini line had him i ntheir sights and he was pulled down. With 30 seconds to go, the Illini had the ball, the lead, and the victory. That episode typifies the "new" Illinois football team according to Don Dufek, Michigan freshman coach, who scouted the Illinois- Purdue game. "They've been improving stead- ily all along," he said. "Their de- fense has improved a lot lately. They've gotten quite tough, really., "It was Illinois' daring plays, though, that actually gave them the victory," Dufek stated posi- tively.; Facts Agree The fact's seemed to bear him out. A Boilermaker punt was kill- ed on the Illini three. The normal call for a team in a situation like this is a running play. But the Illini team, run by Tali- aferro, isn't conventional. Taliaferro faded back into the end zone-and connected on a 39- yd. pass play. Dufek cites Taliaferro's passing as a factor in the downing of Pur- due. He passed for a total of 199 yds. Saturday to bring his season's total to 796 yds. The main target of his passes was senior end Thurman Walker. Walker snagged four of Taliafer- ro's passes for a total of 90 yds., and scored a touchdown. The Illinois offense features a. passing attack as its main weapon but the running of Ken Zimmer- man, senior halfback, who, ac- cording to Dufek, is "neither fast nor shifty," gives defensive lines another worry. "Zimmerman has given the l- lini leadership and fire," com- mented Dufek. Gives 100 Per Cent "When Zimmerman is in there, he gives 100 per cent;" Dufek con- tinued to exult. "He's not especial- ly fast or powerful-he only weighs 178-but when he gets going he is hard to stop." Dufek thinks that the Illini have improved the most on defense. "Their line seems to know what they're doing. They mix up the plays, stunting, etc. They are real hard charging." The Illini will be no pushover for the Wolverines this Saturday - afterall, they beat Purdue, didn't they? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Northwestern (24) So. Calif.

This "national union," however, contains within its membership only one-fourth o.f the United States college and univer- sity students; and only 17% of this country's institutions of higher learning.
