SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1963 THE MICHIGAN DAILY SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1983 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Blue Squad Shows Improvement, Triumphs, 48-0 13y MIKE BLOCK 4 Associate Sports Editor In a sharp reversal of form from last week's game-type scrim- mafie, Michigan's Blue squad col- lected a few breaks yesterday and rolled to an 48-0 romp over the Whites. About 250 people scattered about warm, sunny Michigan Stadium watched the Blues improve con- siderably over their meager 32-30 win of last Saturday. Quarterback Frosty Evashevski and halfback C* Bob Quist each scored two of the Blues' seven touchdowns, with halfback Dick Wells, fullback Wayne Sparkman and guard Joe O'Donnell (surprise!) adding the others. White team place-kicker Rick Bay filled in for injured Blue toe- mai Bob Timberlake and missed only one of seven tries for point after touchdown. Many Breaks The entire game was character- ized by the Blues receiving several good breaks, and converting them to touchdowns shortly. They had only one long drive towards a TD, but frequent interceptions kept them close to the Whites' goal line most of the time. On the other hand, the Whites received very little charity from the first- and second-stringers, and the only long drive they could manage couldn't get them any closer to paydirt than the Blues' 15-yard line. The Blues were successful de- spite the loss of several key per- sonnel, especially backs. Three. of the Wolverines' top fullbacks, Mel Anthony, Dennis Jones and Barry Dehlin, sat the game out with var- ious ailments, as did quarterback Bob Timberlake, halfback Dick Rindfuss, guard John Houtman and tackle Bill Yearby. Sick List Anthony and Dehlin were nurs- ing sore ankles, Timberlake and Yearby had pulled shoulder mus- cles, Jones and Houtman had slight cases of the flu and Rind- fuss was out with a nose fracture. None of these disabilities were of a serious nature, and the seven men involved were expected by head coach Bump Elliott to re- turn to practice this week. Despite the fullback shortage, some of the best performances of the day came out of that position. Sparkman started at full for the Blues and was helped out there by Gary Schick, who switched from his White uniform for the afternoon. Both players picked up plenty of yardage through the center of the White line. Allison Helps Whites Bruce Allison did most of the fullbacking for the Whites, and was their most consistent ground gainer. Evashevski got the Blues off to a good start and scored the first two tallies himself. The Blues re- ceived the opening kickoff, but were soon forced to punt, and on the Whites' third play from scrim- mage, Bay, playing quarterback, fumbled to John Rowser, the Blues' left halfback, on the 22. Four plays later Evashevski went ,over from the two on an option play. Towards the end of the first quarter, the White team got of f their longesthsustained drive. Quarterback Pete Hollis' passing and the running of Allison spark- ed the drive, but the charge was halted when Blue defensive back Jim Schar picked of f a Hollis aerial on the 15-yard line and ran it back to the 50.; Four Horsemen From that point the ball-carry- ing of Sparkman and Evashevski, plus that of starting halfbacks Wells and Jack Clancy scored the Blues' second TD. With a first down on the nine, Clancy streaked around right end to the one, and Evashevski sneaked over for the six-pointer. The next time they got their hands on the ball, the Blues sent in quarterback Bob Chandler, who has been hampered by a sprained ankle. In this series of downs, Chandler didn't seem to be bothered by the injury, and di- rected the squad to the White 1, largely on the pass-catching abil- ity of end John Henderson. How- ever, the drive ended there on Bay's missed field goal. The Blues scored on the last play of the half on a march set up by Schic'"s interception of a Bay pass on the White 31. Quarterback Tom Prichard eventually pitched a TD fling to Quist from the 20. Another Interception White took the second half kick- off, but didn't have the ball long, as Sparkman intercepted another toss by Hollis on the 50, and ran down the sidelines to the nine, where Dick Ott finally caught up with him. Two plays later, Eva- shevski passed to Wells for the score. The Blues' last three touch- downs were scored in the final period. The first was scored after a drive from their own 23, and culminated on a lateral fromI Chandler to Quist from thef Whites' five-yard line. The second came about when the Blues found themselves on the I White 40 with a fourth down and 17 to go. O'Donnell was sent back, to punt, but instead ran rightE through everyone and across the goal line. Commenting on the play, Elliott said, "That was something the boys cooked up in the huddle, I won't take any creditj for it."1 Powerful Punts Incidentally, when O'Donnell did punt, he got off three boots of better than 55 yards. The game's last score was tal- lied by Sparkman from the one- yard line after a drive in which he did most of the running. Prich- ard gave Evashevski and Chandler somerest in pointing his squad towards this tally. No serious injuries were sus- tained during the scrimmage.: Starting Blue team tackle John Yanz received a head injury early Millsaps? Pick 'em in Grid'Piecks First it was Toogaloo and Phi- lander Smith. But last year, Millsaps and Ouchita Baptists took over the spotlight as the top game of the fall in The Daily's. weekly Grid Picks contest. And it's the same old story again this fall. As Daily readers try their skill at picking the winners in eacl week's list of 20 games, everyone will be thinking ahead to the battle to the death later in the seasoi between the Cheetahs of Arkadelphia, Ark., and the Sap- pies of Jackson, Miss. Last year the Cheetahs turnedi in the biggest upset of the season with a 20-7 shocker over the Sap-. pies in a game which thrilled the fans of Jackson. This year it's anybody's guess again. Even if you haven't made up your mind yet about the winner of the really big one, you might want to try your lck, anyway. The contestant with the top winning percentage each week walks away with two free tickets to the Mich- igan Theater. if you can pick the winners of all twenty games correctly the sports editor of The Daily, Dave Good, will sign you up as chief of football prognostication, a post coveted by all soothsayers and for-1 tune tellers. Start thinking now about what system you're going to use this fall to try to beat the experts. The first contest starts next week for the games of Sept. 21. Record Set DEKALB, Ill. (A-Passing wiz- ard George Bork set a NCAA col- lege division, record yesterday by throwing seven touchdown passes in leading Northern Illinois to a 55-7 football victory over White- water. Borg, who now holds nine Indi- vidual' NCAA game and career passing records, hit end Hugh Rohrschneider with four of the scoring passes. in the second half, and had to miss the remainder of the game, but team physician Dr. A. W. Coxon said the injury was only super- ficial and would not cause Yanz to miss any practice. Schick also left the game for a while with a bloody nose, but re- entered the action with no appar- ent ill effects. Starting to Improve After the game was over, a pleased Elliott summed up his team's performance by saying, "I think we're starting to improve now. One of the things we're happiest about is that the team spirit has maintained itself. If the spirit keeps going the way it has, we should be in top form for our first game." Elliott added that the upcom- ing week of practice (the fourth week) was crucial. "If we can keep the morale up during this week, we should be okay," he asserted. Scharl Surprises One of the defensive surprises of the game was Scharl, who was elevated from the fourth string to give a good account of himself in the Blues' defensive backfield. Elliott indicated that Scharl has shown considerable improvement as a cornerman. The Michigan mentor also term- ed the quarterback situation "un- certain." Timberlake and Chan- dler were slated to be the two top signal-callers, but with them see- ing limited action, Evashevski and Hollis have filled in and have done good, if not exceptional jobs of directing the team. -Daily-Jim SAFETY-VALVE PASS--Michigan quarterback Bob Cha helped lead the Blue team to a 48-0 victory over the White yesterday.

(R) - Ham Richardson upset U.S. singles champion Rafael Osuna yester- day and gained the finals of the Colonial National Invitation Ten- nis tournament against Chuck Mc- Kinley. Richardson, at ,31 only semi-, active on the tennis circuit, battled to a 2-6, 6-,10-8 victory over the MexicanDavis Cup star. Osuna, the No. 2 seed behind McKinley, held match point six times in the final set and six times Richardson rallied brilliant- ly. McKinley crushed fourth-seeded Antonio Palafox of Mexico, 6-2, 6-3. The: 22-year-old Wimbledon champion, who spent the morning in a whirlpool bath to sooth an aching back, broke the Mexican Davis Cupper's service in the sec- ond game of the first set and coasted on in to the final berth. A near-capacity crowd of 1,500 gave the third-seeded Richardson and Osuna a standing ovation af- ter the tall Dallas belter clinched the match with a smooth back- hand into the corner beyond Osu- na's reach. \Osuna, pin-pointing his volleys deftly, swept through the first set with ease and then Richardson, finding the range with his sibbling service, took the second set in somewhat of a breeze. It set the stage for a dramatic finale that kept the fans cheering lustily and the umpire calling time and again for silence. The two swapped service breaks in the fifth and sixth games and Osuna carried a 5-4 edge into the 10th gam6. Richardson double-faulted three times in the crucial game, twice moving Osuna to match point. Six straight times, Osuna gained the advantage and with each Richard- son rally the pressure mounted. Finally, Richardson broke through Osuna's service in the 17th game with a couple of great passing shots.. Arthur Ashe Jr., of Richmond, Va., was picked Saturday night to replace Riessen intoday's final singles match. He thus becomes the first U.S. Negro ever selected to play in a Davis Cup match. The U.S. team captain, Bob Kelleher, said Ashe will oppose Bracamonte in a match starting at noon. Ralston will play Pi- mentel. ST. LOUIS (P)-The Los An- geles Dodgers clung to. their slen- der 2%-game lead over the press- ing St. Louis Cardinals yester- day as both teams scored victories in the tense National League pen- nant race.' The Dodgers turned back the Phillies' 5-1 at Philadelphia, with five-hit pitching by Pete Richert and home runs by Ken McMullen and Tommy Davis. The Cardinals won their 17th game in their last 18 starts with a 3-2 triumph over the Milwaukee Braves but had to snuff out a ninth-inning Braves' rally to do it. The Dodgers and Cardinals. meet head-on in a three-game se- ries at St. Louis, starting tomor- row. The hero in the St. Louis vic- tory was Ron Taylor, one of the Cards' lesser lights who has spent most of the season in the bullpen. The 26-year-old .Canadian, an honor graduate from the Universi- ty of Toronto, took over from start- er Bob Gibson in the ninth inning with Braves on third and first and nobody out. He came through, retiring three batters without per- mitting either of the runners to advance. "It gave me the biggest thrill I've ever had in baseball," the perspiring Taylor said as he re- ceived congratulations from his teammates. "I knew I couldn't afford to let any of those guys hit the ball out of the infield; so I concentrated on keeping the ball low and away. He got Dennis Menke to pop up, struck out Ty Cline and then got Frank Bolling on a force out. "We'll win this thing," said Lew Burdette, the veteran right-hand- er who will pitch one of the games in today's doubleheader against his former teammates. Left-hander Ray Sadecki will pitch the other. They will be opposed by southpaw Bob Hendley and Denny Lemas- ter. "After tomorrow we'll be one behind," Burdette said confident- ly. "Then we'll.have those Dodgers in our back yard. That's what we've been waiting for." The only signs of nervousness among the players was shown by Curt Simmons, who pitched a mas- terful five-hit shutout over the Braves Friday night - his I straight shutout. "These games are making old," said the 34-year-old hander. "I don't know if my h can take it." The Cardinals have been en ed in 17 one-run decisions in last month, and they've won 15 "We just can't win those i ones," quipped Burdette. Manager Johnny Keane hid anxiety behind a cigar whicl puffed at confidently. "This. was the toughest we've been in in a long time, said. "I mean this late in a g But the boys battled it througi Keane singled out Taylor special praise. "Ron didn't surprise me witl fine relief' job," he said. "He's in a number of spots just like one and he's pitched out .of a them." STARTING MONDAY, SEPT. 16 THE "CHAMP" TAKES ON a new ""PUNCH' 1 II I Major League Standings I AMERICAN LEAGUE W L Pct.
