Washington at Fourth OPEN 9-6 Mon-Sat 994-3572 over the Wolverines, hauling in seven tosses for 79 yards and a crucial third quarter score. Marsh, meanwhile had a frustrating afternoon as he grabbed just one pass, although it was for 45 yards. This year, it's a new ball game and Michigan is thirsting to make up for last season's loss. "It's more or less a revenge game," said Marsh. "It's something we've thought about all year. We've had a bad taste in our mouth since after the game and through the course of the summer. "It's one we're going to tackle with great intensity," added the Akron, O. native. "It's just something we can't live with here at Michigan. We know we're the best. We just have to go out and prove it." The 6-2%, 230-pound senior currently leads the Wolverines with 14 catches for 257 yards and one touchdown in just four games. At his present rate, he's a cinch to surpass his 1978 totals of 19 receptions for 283 yards. Marsh admitted he's somewhat amazed he's the number one receiver on the team, but at the same time he in- sists his stats aren't important to him. "I'm surprised I've been as open as I've been," said Marsh. "But a lot of times, Ralph (Clayton) and Alan (Mit- chell) are open and they (the Blue quar- terbacks) just couldn't get the ball to them. "I feel as the season goes on, they (the opponents) will probably shut me off and Ralph will move ahead of me," continued the husky 21-year-old. "I don't care how many times I catch it. I just try to contribute as much as I can." Marsh will no doubt have to con- tribute at least his fair share this weekend if Michigan is to return to Ann Arbor victorious over the hated Spar- tans. Marsh's performance thus far has been a silver lining on a gloomy Wolverine offense, which has not produced consistently yet this year. Refusing to be pessimistic, Marsh strongly believes the Blue offense will sooner or later awaken from its sleep and put it all together. "I feel that we (the offense) can ex- plode at any time as long as we limit our mistakes," said Marsh, who has been clocked at 4.6 in the 40-yard dash: "I feel the thing that stops us from being a great offensive team is our mistakes. You know, we drive all the way down the field, then we stop because we have a mental mistake here or miss a block and so forth. "We limit these things and just play a good, solid offensive game and our defense continues to play the way it has been, I think everything will turn out the best for us," Marsh added. And if he continues to excel on the field, everything should turn out the best for Marsh! in his bid to prove there's no better tight end in the con ference. In his own words, Marsh predicted, "If I continue to improve each and every week, I feel I could be the best in the Big Ten. I don't want to put the wagon before the horse, so I'll just have to keep getting better and better and then just let the people decide. "I have nothing against him (Bram- mer). It's just, a matter of showing who's the best, that's all." SCALPERS ASKING SKY-HIGH PRICES MSU tickets are colored green situation in East Lansing is also tight. When questioned about the ticket sup- ply, Kearney stated that there were none left, and that a "sold out" situation has existed for months. He continued: "Field seats have been ad- ded to accommodate the excluded freshmen, and we expect to set an all- time high for attendance. We're gonna be filled right to the gunnells." So, you're going to be cramped and have to pay through the nose besides? Maybe not, says Michigan ticket manager Al Renfrew. Renfrew doesn't think the scalpers will get much of a price since the game will be nationally televised. But he admitted he wouldn't tell anyone to go up there. Chris Valas, an MSU student thinks otherwise. "Most tickets are going for 25-30 dollars a shot. A guy down the hall from me got 50 dollars for a pair in the end zone." Valas summed up the skyrocketing prices, saying, "There was such a demand for tickets this season, that most of the freshmen didn't get seats, consequently it's this game that everyone wants to see." A second MSU student agreed with Valas and added, "There are tickets available, but you're gonna have to hustle, and be prepared to talk in long green.' So they'll run you some bucks, and give you an ulcer in their attempted procurement. The next logical question revolves around where to look for those unarmed bandits who call themselves ticket agents, or to the colloquial, scalpers? The two MSU students said to check the notice boards in the dor- mitory lobbies or cafeterias if you get there tomorrow. If you're arriving in East Lansing, on Saturday, the best areas to find scalpers are the stadium and parking lots. Gridde Picks -r" ,. __ ji \ r ^ ' ti- { ( , 4 f ti v ~ F ,. .

"In this vast country," he began, "with its many resources both natural and man-made," there is a tendency to adopt materialist modes of existence." "A-men!" responded the masses. "To engage in promiscuous ac- tivities, such as drug abuse, sexual in- tercourse, and attendance at rock con- certs." "A-men!" answered the worship- pers. "Therefore, we must resolve to live a simpler existence. And the first step we can take toward this new lifestyle is to submit our Gridde Picks to the Michigan Daily by midnight tomorrow. "A-MEN!
