Pittsburgh 4-0 261 By PAUL CAMPBELL The bruised right forearm Rick each received from the Arizona lefense definitely will not keep him rom practicing or playing in the 1ichigan St. game, according to his oach, Bo Schembechler. "Nah, it's just a bruise," said Bo at tis weekly press conference. "There's 1o way it's going to stop that kid from playing." SCHEMBECHLER will need Leach to counter the play of MSU's fine senior quarterback, 4d Smith. Smith passed For over 300 yards against Notre Dame xn Saturday, but the Spartans still lost, W9-25. "Smith has excellent judgement, a quick release, and a fine touch," Schembechler said. "He's the best passer we'll face." Three of the reasons Smith is con- sidered such a threat are flanker Kirk Gibson, split end Eugene Byrd, and tight end Mark Brammer. Together, they compose the most explosive pass receiving crew in the Big Ten. ALL THAT talent, makes Schem- bechler apprehensive about his inex- perienced defensive secondary. Mike Jolly is the only one of four deep backs who had started a game before this season. Still, the unit has comne up with seven interceptions, while Michigan's four opponents have averaged only 98.5 yards per game. "They've come along well so far," Schembechler said, "but this will be their final exam." Depth is a problem in the secondary, and when cornerback Gerald Diggs limped off the field in the first half of the Arizona game, Schembechler faced the prospect of being only one-deep at that position. BUT DIGGS injury wasn't as bad as originally feared. His strained ankle tendon may hamper his practice time, but Bo expects him to be ready by Saturday. Schembechler is predicting "a great game," despite the fact that the Spar- tans come to town with a somewhat disappointing 1-3 record. "They would have beaten Purdue if Smith hadn't hurt himself," said Schembechler, referring to the shoulder injury that kept the Spartan quarterback out of the second half of Purdue's 21-14 win and the entire vic- tory over Syracuse. "I would say that they are better than they were last year. "THEY HAVE the great receivers, they haven't lost anything at running back, and Smith has more experience," explained Schembechler. "On defense, they're giving up a lot of yardage and points, but they have some great in- dividuals - guys like (tackle Mel) Land, (linebacker Dan) Bass, and (wide safety Mark) Anderson." The loss to Purdue put the Spartans in danger of being eliminated from the Big Ten race early on. They have to beat Michigan to remain a factor. One bonus is that Ohio State is not on their schedule this year. "They still have a legitimate shot," said Schembechler. SCHEMBECHLER pined over the on- tinuing injury problems. Gene John- son's knees, Mel Owens' pinched nerve, and Bill Dufek's leg will keep them all out of uniform. They all were starters before falling. Defensive end Tom Seabron broke a small bone in his hand, but will have it taped and be able to play this week. "We just might pass more our- selves," Schembechler stated coyly at the end of the conference. "But I don't anticipate a high-scoring game. If it is, we better be doing the scoring." 2.

Meanwhile, Manager Tommy La- sorda of the Dodgers withheld his pitching choice until a late Monday workout, because he wanted to consult with his coaches and inform the pitcher first. There seemed to be little doubt, hough, that the National League hampion Dodgers would go with right- ander Burt Hooton or the veteran eft-hander, Tommy John. The Yankees re believed to be less potent against eft-handers. Lasorda also said that he would use ee Lacy, Vic Davalillo or Joe Ferguson as his designated hitter. Lacy or Ferguson probably will go against left-handers, with Davalillo facing ankees right-handers. This is the second time in World ries history that the DH is being used n the fall baseball classic. The merican League rule first was used in be Series two years ago, when Dan essen played the role for the Cin- innati Reds in a four-game sweep over the Yankees, who sent Carlos May and GRIDDE yoPICKS Reporter: Tell me Tommy, who are you going to start for tomorrow's opener of the World Series?

Jackson, who with Lemon, Figueroa, Lasorda and Dodgers first baseman Steve Garvey appeared at a Monday news conference, said about his DH status, "I'm not crazy about it, but Lemon has been doing an outstanding job and whatever he says I'll go along with. After all, winning is the bottom line." Lasorda left no doubt that he dislikes the DH, complained that it takes away from the strategy of the game, but said he doesn't make the rules, only follows them. "I'm not in favor of the DH," he said. "I don't like it because it takes away from the strategy of the game. A lot of managers like it because they don't have to make as many decisions." Tranquility was the theme of the news conference. Figueroa and Jackson praised Lemon for the peace be brought to the previously haggling Yankees. Lasorda and Garvey said the August fisticuffs between Garvey and teammate Don Sutton had served only to make the National League winners a closer unit. Figueroa, who won 20 games for the first time in his five-year major league career, credited his success to the fatherly-type Lemon. "Billy Martin (former Yankee manager) worked with me every seven or eight days," Figueroa said. "Bob Lemon worked me every four days and that was the big difference. I started winning." Figueroa won his last eight starts as the Yankees rallied from 14 games back to overtake the Boston Red Sox, and then went on to beat the Sox.in a 11 SPECIAL ISSUE ON LABOR MIGRATION IN THE MIDDLE EAST MERIP REPORTS and other resource materials on the Middle East are available at: A PERIODICAL RETREAT (An Alternative Bookshop) 3361 $.
