Allowed only 20 scheduled work- outs, C o a c h Bo Schembechler wasted little time in starting a hard-hitting program that will cli- max with the annual intra-squad battle April 22 in the Michigan Stadium. Despite having to fill the gaps left by 12 graduating starters, the biggest question mark of this year's Wolverine squad, again lies at quarterback. If there was a weakness in the squad that finish- ed with an 11-1 record and a per- fect Big Ten championship season, it must have been the absence of a good passing quarterback. And there was no one quicker to, realize the problem than Schem-, bechler himself. "The passing game wil lhe much better," affirm- ed the coach who has a 28-5 over- all record at Michigan. "And I can guarantee you that," he added. Incumbent Tom Slade is by no means sure of the top quarterback slot as he will again be challenged This Week in Sports WEDNESDAY GOLF - Miami Invitational at Miami (through Saturday) THURSDAY SWIMMING - NCAA Championships at West Point (through Saturday) SATURDAY RUGBY - at Cleveland by Kevin Casey, Larry Cipa and Jack McBride. Sophomore-to-be Dennis Frank- lin, who directed the 1971 fresh- men to impressive victories over Michigan State and Notre Dame, also will be in the running along with another sophomore, Jeff Spahn. So Schembechler will again be faced with finding a number one quarterback from a huge list of candidates. But this season, the best passer may indeed get the nod.

"This is our big experiment of the spring," explain- ed Schembechler. "If it works, it will be a big plus for us." If Seymour does stay at tackle, junior Curtis Tucker will probably shift from tackle to the left guard spot vacated by McKenzie and jun- ior Paul Seal will handle the ma- jority of tight end duties. Senior Jim Coode will be pres- sured for the quick tackle spot by senior Tom Poplawski while senior Bill Hart should be the replace- ment for departed Guy Murdock. Split end remains strong how- ever with. both Bo Rather and Gary Coakley returning to a sel- dom-thrown-to position. Juniors Clint Haselrig and Larry Gustaf- son will battle sophomores Gil Chapman and Glenn Franklin for versatile Glenn Doughty's wing- back spot to round out the receiv- ing corps.I With All-America Billy Taylor departing from tailback, either Cowboy Walker or speedster Harry Banks will be hard pressed to fill Taylor's blue suede shoes. But showing better overall speed, the running attack should not :uffer. * Terps By The Associated Press NEW YORK -- Len Elmore and Bob Bodell delivered key free throws in the last 85 seconds as Maryland held off Syracuse 71-65' last night and gained the semi-! finals of the 35th National Invi- tation Basketball tournament.
