ASSISTANTS SPOT FOR BO:
Press box battali on

unnoticed

' By ERNIE DUNBAR
Tucked away in the press box with
all the reporters and radio announcers
covering the game are four members of
the Michigan football coaching staff.
They seem like the forgotten few,
banished from the excitement and in-
tensity of the sidelines. After spending,
an entire week coaching their players,
they must confine themselves to a
coaching booth behind a sheet of glass.
But without the observations of Jerry.
Hanlon and Tirrel Burton on offense
and Jack Harbaugh and Milan
Vooletich on defense the Wolverines
would have a much tougher time rolling
up impressive scores like they have this
season.
IT IS THEIR job to analyze each play
during the game and find imperfections
in an opponent that Michigan may ex-
ploit. They're also looking for any
weakness in the Wolverine attack
which they must correct in order to en-
sure victory.

"The defensive coaches are looking
at the offense of the opponent," said of-
fensive line coach Hanlon. "They
suggest adjustments, confer with the
coaches on the field and anticipate what
plays the other team will run."
When Michigan has the football,
Hanlon is on the headphone to Bo
Schembechler, trying to help the head
coach decide what play would work
best in a given situation.
"I MIGHT SUGGEST a play to Bo
and he might call it or he might say I've
already got one. Sometimes Bo has the
phones off and I have a play to
suggest," says Hanlon. "Then, when he
calls a play it's the same play I would
have called.
Hanlon seems to know his stuff quite
well. He's been in the coaching business
for 22 years and carries that added edge
of experience into every game.
"I've been with Bo for 12 years now so
we pretty much think alike," he said of
his knack of out-guessing Bo.

"Each coach looks at the overall play
as well as concentrating on a specific
area. For exlample, Tirrel (Burton)
will look at the secondary coverage of
the other team to give us an overall pic-
ture of their defense.
WHILE BURTON is looking for
potential pass routes for the receivers
he coaches, Harbaugh is noting the
routes of the other team's offensive
backs to aid Michigan's 'defensive
secondary. Meanwhile, Vooletich is
concentrating on the movements of the
defensive lines.
"You have a game plan and you want
to implement that plan. If there is
anything that gave you problems, like if
their defense doesn't do like you an-
ticipated, then you want to be able to
counter with something that will
work," said Hanlon.
"We want to know why a play didn't
work. We could run a play properly and
one player could make a mistake that
dauses the play not to work. We need to

know this so we don't just assume that
the play is no good."
Besides just analyzing each in-
dividual play, Hanlon and his crew are
also looking fora trend in the game.
"IF THEY (the opponent) are doing
the same thing all the time on first
down, then we'll know about it and ad-
just. Our younger coaches Barry Pier-
son and Bob Thornbladh record every
defensive play-the down- and the
distance-to indicate a trend."
According to Hanlon, trying to do the
same job on the sidelines just wouldn't
work. "You could have a play happen
right in front of you and you couldn't
really tell what happened because you
can't see the total movement."
When asked why he was selected as
the coach to confer with Schembechler,
Hanlon smiled and said, "I guess I'm
just the oldest."

HOCKEY ROUNDUP

Caps ut out Flames
P . P (By The Associated Press)
LANDOVER, Md.-Tom Rowe scored two goals to lead the Washington
Capitals to a 8-7 National Hockey League victory over the Atlanta Flames
last night.
ti The Capitals came out flying to score three goals in the first 2:03 of the
opening period. The goals were made by Dennis Maruk, Leif Svensson and
Mark Lofthouse.
Altanta's Bob MacMillan scored twice in the first period, one on a power
play. Washington built up its lead when Rolf Edberg and Guy Charron tallied
to make it 5-2.
Rowe scored at 12:53 of' the second period on a power play to give the
Caps a 6-2 lead. The Flames came storming back and scored five straight
sgoals by Eric Vail, Guy Chohinard, Bobby Lalonde, Willi Plett and Tom
Lysiak to take a 7-6 lead at 9:43 of the third period.
But Rick Green scored at 12:20 to tie the score for Washington and Rowe
tallied the game-winning goal with a backhand shot with 1:16 left in the
game. Rockies 2, Islanders 2
UNIONDALE, N.Y.-Barry Beck's breakaway goal with 2:14 to play
in the game gave the Colorado Rockies a 2-2 tie with the New York Islanders
last night in a National Hockey League game.
The Islanders had taken a 2-1 lead on Lorne Henning's goal at 4:55 of the
third period.
The tie enabled the Islanders to extend their unbeaten streak to five
games and put them into a second-place tie with the idle New York Rangers
in the Patrick Division. Each team has 21 points.
The Rockies now have gone eight games without a victory, losing five
and tying three.
Beck knocked the puck down at the blue line with his glove, then skated
in on Islander goalie Chico Resch, beating him on his stick side for the tying
goal.
Henning's goal, his second of the season, was a 15-footer as he skated
from the left side and took a wrist shot in the slot that beat Bill Oleschuk on
his glove side.y

SPORTS OF THE DAILY
Spartans drub'Russians

By The Associated Press
EAST LANSING-Michigan State's Gregory Kelser
scored 24 points as the Spartans handed the Russian national
basketball team a 76-60 defeat last night.
The Russians led the contest just once, 8-6, at 4:38. The
last time they were able to tie it up was with 4:28 remaining
in the first half, on a turnaround jumper by Vladimire Zhigili
to make it 26-ll.
Michigan State led 38-30 at halftime.
The Spartans opened up an 18-point bulge during an 11-
point spree that made it 75-54. During that splurge, Ron
Charles, a 6-foot-7 forward, scored three baskets, two on
feeds from Spartan star Earvin Johnson. Johnson had 13
points and 13 assists.
The Russians' 7-foot-4 Vladimir Tkachenko had 18 points.
Jay Vincent had 14 points for the Spartans and Charles
had 13.
The only other Russian in double figures was Sergei
Tarakanov with 10.
Cowens to coach
BOSTON-Veteran center Dave Cowens, a fiery redhead
noted for his aggressive, hard-nosed play on the court, was
named player-coach of the Boston Celtics yesterday in a
shocking move to rebuild the National Basketball
Association club's sagging fortunes.
Cownes, an eight-year veteran from Florida State who
just turned 30, confidently predicted better days ahead for
the Celtics after accepting the challenge offered by new
owner John Y. Brown and president and general manager
Red Auerbach. "I'm very flattered that Mr. Brown and Red
even considered me for the job, but we're not going to win
because of my smarts," Cowens said. "The players will hve
to win by playing better together, playing as a team."
Cowens, who walked out on the Celtics for two months two
years ago to, "get away from it all," was picked to lead the
one-time dynasty in one of the team's most dismal periods.
Boston is off to a 2-12 start after failing to make the playoffs
last season.
Cowens, given a pay raise to a reported $300,000 a season
on a multi-year contract by Brown last month, replaced Tom
"Satch" Sanders, who took over as head coach when Tommy
Heinsohn was fired last January.

Sanders will remain with the Celtics as chief of scouting
and a member of the public relations staff. K. C. Jones and
Bob MacKinnon were retained as assistant coaches.
Olson accused
IOWA CITY-Iowa Coach Lute Olson vehemently denied
yesterday that he has accepted money from the Nike shoe
company to endorse the firm's basketball shoes.
"That's an out-and-out lie," Olson said. "I've never
received one penny for endorsing anything."
A Washington Post story last Saturday quoted a Nike
spokesman who listed Olson among 17 major college coaches
under contract to promote Nike shoes as part of - "an
aggressive attack" on the basketball shoe market.
Claudia Craig, a promotions manger for Nike, told the
Post that some coaches received up to $10,000 to endorse the
shoes, and that $8,000 was above average for the contracts.
But she refused to divulge individual contract figures.
Olson said he has no promotional contract of any kind with
Nike, and that his players may wear any kind of shoes they
like and, in fact, Iowa players use four different kinds of
shoes.
"I've never had any contact with anybody from Nike,
other than the guy who shows us shoes the same as a
representative for Converse shoes or anybody else," Olson
said.
A love match
WEMBLEY, England-John Lloyd, one of the spearheads
of Britain's bid for the Davis Cup, confesses he has been
thinking more about Chris Evert than tennis.
"I've had nothing but Chris on my mind," Lloyd said.
"For the first time in my career, tennis has been pushed into
second place. I have had no interest in training or playing."
The Lloyd-Evert romance is a major topic for British ten-
nis fans-almost as much ass Britain's success in reaching
the Davis Cup final for the first time in 41 years. The final
against the United States is set for Palm Springs, Calif., Dec.
8-10.
Lloyd, wearing a gold chain with the initial C, said his
failures in recent tournaments were all due to love.

Is it crazy to love marker pens that give you the smoothest, thinnest line in
town...and feel so right in your hand? Is it mad to worship pens with clever
little metal "collars" to keep their plastic points from-getting squishy?
Not if the pen is a Pilot marker pen.
Our Razor Point, at only 79, gives
the kind of extra-fine delicate line you'll flip
over. And for those times you want a little less
line, have a fling with our fine point
69, Fineliner. It has the will and fortitude to
actually write through carbons.
So, don't settle for a casual relationship.
Get yourself a lasting one,or two, to have
and to hold...at your college book store. ; ' Rh" kt

"Man oh man," Dick Vitale moaned.
"Not only am I getting screwed by the
referees, being abused, insulted and
otherwise maligned by the fans, subjec-
ted to intense internal pain caused by
acids generated in my stomach from
suppressed desires after watching the
Classy Chassis' gyrate on the sidelines
night after night but now right after I
receive the news that Bob Lanier is
sidelined with his knee injury while
Leon Douglas is still hobbled by his
ankle, somebody goes and steals my
Goddamn Gridde picks. How will I ever
get them in to 420 Maynard before mid-
night Friday so I can win my favorite
Italian dish-a small two-item pizza
from Pizza Bob's? If that lousy son-of-

have to eat my wife's cooking and you
married men know what that does to a
