Somehow he's got to find time to root for the Baltimore Orioles. It seems that the television networks suffer from the de- lusion that the World Series is more important than college football. Since the Series opens Saturday in the American League city the starting time of this week's clash between the Wolverines and the Michigan State Spartans depends on who wins the American League pennant.. If Oakland wins, football will start at 12 noon. If Balti- more does the expected and wins one of the three remain- ing games the Wolverines and Spartans can take the field at the more reasonable hour of 2 p.m. Since no coach in the world wants to play a crucial game that early Schembechler has had to forget his loyalties to the Cleveland Indians and become an Oriole fan. Baltimore should solve Schembechler's baseball problems by the time football practice starts this afternoon, but then he's got to start working on the real problem, beating Michigan State. On the basis of both team's performances over the last four weeks, Schembechler shouldn't have much to worry about. Michigan has crushed its opponents by a combined score of 161-6 while Michigan State has struggled to a 2-2 record. But the time-worn cliche that past performances mean nothing when Michigan meets Michigan State is unfortunately still true. This game will bear no resemblences to the mis- matches of the last three weeks. "It will be a tough, hardnosed battle," Schembechler commented. But in the next breath he said that he won't be shocked if it doesn't turn out that way. There's just something about these games that defies prediction. Two years ago the same Wolverine squad that would later defeat Ohio State traveled to East Lansing to meet a weak Spartan band. And they went home beaten. Last year Schembechler predicted a tough de- fensive battle and the final score was 34-20. So if Bo is wrong again this year don't be too sur- prised. Michigan State's offense hasn't gotten a lot of points yet this year, but they could on Saturday. "They've got a few problems, but they've got the nucleus to come up with an outstanding offensive team," commented Schem- bechler. "They have moved the football in the last few years more than any team we've played." Two years ago the Spartans didn't have much of an of- fense but Duffy Daugherty junked the veer he was using and went to the power-I. catching the Wolverine defense off bal- ance. While Bo doesn't expect the same thing this year he's got to be ready. The Michigan State offense wasn't very im- pressive against Notre Dame last week, but according to Schem- bechler "never judge a team's offense against Notre Dame's defense, it's superlative." But the Wolverine defenders shouldn't have the same kind of problems their Spartan counterparts will have. The Michi- gan maulers haven't given up a point in a month and they don't intend to start Saturday. Even Bo admits, "our defense is continually getting better." There are those, including the four teams the Wolverines have played, that would compare the Michigan defenders to the superlative irish. The Wolverine 'offense isn't superlative yet, but it doesn't have far to go. It met Schembechler's test against Navy by playing a better game, at least in the second half, than the week before. "Our offensive blocking was poor against Navy," Bo noted, "but a good line will adjust and ours did." Part of the problem was the Navy defense. Though it gave up 46 points, it was tricky. According to Schembech- ler, "Navy's defense is the most unorthodox we'll ever see. I couldn't believe some of the moves." Schools teachyour kids how to read and write.

With 20-game winner Vida. Blue and Hunter whipped, Oak- land Manager Dick Williams is left with 10-game winner Diego Segui to throw against the Orioles and 20-game winner Jim Palmer. Cuellar, one of Baltimore's quartet of 20 - game winners, pitched out of several jams with the aid of a pick-off and a sur- prise sacrifice in the sixth inn- ing by clean-up hitter Tommy Davis. The A's were able to crack through against the 34-year-old Cuellar only in the fourth inn- ing on a Sal Bando double and a single by Dave Duncan des-! pite getting the first runneron base in three other innings. One of those occasions came in the sixth with Baltimore lead- ing only 2-1. Reggie Jackson op- ened the inning for the A's With a double, and Cuellar appeared to be headed for some difficulty with Nos. 4-5-6 hitters coming up. But, instead of swinging away, Davis sacrificed Jackson to third and the Oakland outfielder was! stranded there as Bando ground- ed out and Angel Manguel flied' to center. Raider railly belts Browns, CLEVELAND (A')-The Oakland Raiders exploded for 24 points in the fourth quarter behind Daryle{ Lamonica's passing and a key in- terception by George Atkinson to upset 'the Cleveland Browns 34-20 in a nationally-televised National! Football League game last night. The victory moved Oakland into a first place tie with Kansas City Chiefs in the Western Division of: the American Football Conference. Both teams are now 2-1.j The Raiders turned the game into a rout beforea sell-out crowd of 84,285 after Atkinson's inter- ception and two costly penalties which resultedwincthe go-ahead touchdown. Atkinson intercepted a Bill Nel- sen pass at the 41 and returned to the 28, and a face-masking penalty against Bo Scott on the tackle put the ball on the 13. A holdingmpenalty against Clarence Scott moved the ball to the five, and Clarence Davis ran it in for the touchdown, putting Oakland in front 24-20. The Browns failed to move after that, and Lamonica led the Raid- ers to their final score on a 26-yard field goal by George Blanda and Pete Banaszak's one-yard run after sustained drives. For the student body: FLARES F. Dock dissents I I Gridde Pickings PITTSBURGH (/)-Controversial Dock Ellis described Pittsburgh Pirates' management as cheap- skates yesterday and said they; didn't deserve a winner. Ellis was angry because he had to switch hotels at his own expense' when the Pirates were in San Francisco for the National League playoffs. The Pittsburgh pitcher said the beds were too small in the first hotel. "I went to another hotel-got red carpet treatment-but paid $50 a day out of my own pocket. And to tell you how good that room was, me and my wife and baby slept in the bed," Ellis said. "They (Pirates management) don't deserve to win the pennant," Eliss snapped. "They don't deserve to win the World Series." Ellis, who pitched five innings in Sunday's Pittsburgh victory ( ver the Giants in the second game of the National League playoffs, add- ed, "But we're going to win be- cause we have the best club. The management can't get out on the field." Ellis and another Pirate pitcher who asked to remain anonymous said the team was particularly upset when the Pirate charter plane to San Francisco had to make a fuel stop for 45 minutes at Omaha, Neb. "It would have cost them $6,000 to get a bigger plane," Ellis stated. The other Pirate pitcher said there were 98 seats on the return plane to Pittsburgh and 94 seats were filled. "It was filled with some br'oad- casters, sons of executives and other people. Didn't even have room- to move." "Pittsburgh-it's the same old thing," said Ellis. "If we played the way they treated us, we wouldn't win a game. "The ball players are not think- ing about how we're going to win, but where we're going to stay and how we're going to get there." Ellis, fined twice during the sea- son by the Pirates for not signing autographs at gates at Three Rivers Stadium on Sundays, was embroiled in another controversy around the All-Star Game when he said he doubted that National League Manager Sparky Anderson of the Cincinnati Reds would start p r him because he was black. He did they want to be traded when they start the game, however, and as know they can make a lot of money it turned out, was the losing here unless it's because of man- pitcher. agement?"

We left drunk and early on the morning of the 14th and after spending ten days on the water, and seven on the boat, we arrived. As you know, Africa is inhabited by elks, moose, and Knights of Pithias. You all know what elks are; that's big game. The first day I shot two bucks. That was the biggest game we had. Here's how the day began. Up at six, breakfast and, back in bed at seven. This was our schedule for the first week. Go so we were back in bed by 6:30. One night I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got there I'll never know. So we tried the remove the tusks, but they were imbedded so firmly that they wouldn't budge. But of course, in Ala- bama the Tuskaloosa. But that's completely irrelevant to what I was talking about. We took some pictures of the native girls, but they weren't developed. But we're going back in a couple weeks."
