I ' i By THERESA SWEDO "There was a football under our Christmas tree every Christ- mas. My father never pushed me into football, but maybe he had a psychological plan in mind to get me to play." Luckily for Michigan's foot- ball future, Guy Murdock did decide to give the sport a try. His try proved successful, and today he is co-captain and cen- ter on the Wolverine squad. In his younger days his at- tempts at glory did not always far so well. He talks about the time his team was playing a championship game in sixth grade. As Guy explains it, his team was behind by six points near the end of the game. So they sent one man out on the pre- text of substitution, and t h e substitute never came in. Meanwhile, the boy who went out stood on the sidelines at the line of scrimmage waiting for the play to begin. The ball was snapped, the quarterback faded ART BOOKS Hundreds in stock at diminished prices. Why pay $25 when $12.50 will do? BORDERS BOOK SHOP 518 E.

The pass was complete and the touchdown was virtually assured when the runner drop- ped the ball. "An example of poetic justice," says Guy. Murdock played center in 5th and 6th grade flag football, but switched to guard when he started playing tackle ball in high school. He lived and went to high school in the suburbs of Chicago. Guy's father was an All-American at Cornell in 1933-1934, then played semi- pro ball for a time. After that he coached at Cornell and Bos- ton College. The Murdock's have four child- ren; a boy and a girl younger than Guy and one older boy. His younger brother will be play- ing football at Drake next year. When he has time Murdock likes to make furniture. L a s t summer he did that and odd jobs to make money for the coming year. He also likes to putter around with tools a n d model railroads. Guy's taste in music ranges from classical to pop, but he doesn't play any instruments. The only experience he's had in art was "fingerpainting in kin- dergarten". The course that Murdock is following in his life seems great- ly influenced by his background. Guy would like to be a teacher, and maybe a coach. He will be student teaching next semester, and hopes to graduate with a degree in math% and education. "Working with kids is inter- esting. I wouldn't like to teach in a big city like Chicago or De- troit though. Ann Arbor is a nice size to teach in." All of Murdock's future plans are being affected right n o w because of the possibility of his being drafted. "I would ike to get into the reserves, but I'm not going to run around trying to get out of the draft." Guy has been pleased w it h the past four years. He likes Michigan; the campus, the peo- ple, and the football team. "I decided to come to Michi- gan because I liked Bump El- liot and the entire coaching or- ganiz'ation. They seemed m o s t interested in me at the time, too. Illinois and Northwestern seemed too close to home when I was picking out my school." Guy is on a scholarship here which includes tuition, room and board and books. He thinks that the biggest disadvantage of playing football while going to school is the lack of time, "All our time is taken up by going to class, football and studying. You don't have any extra time unless you cut down on studying. And that just does not work." From playing guard in high school to playing center here, Guy had to make quite a f e w changes. "The first spring that I start- ed varsity football they needed a backup center so I was moved into that position. At first I didn't like it at all. Now I wouldn't play anything else." TINA sly* Guy's most memorable mo- ment in college football w a s Michigan's victory over Ohio State in 1969. "Ohio State was supposedly the greatest college team ever assembled. It was a real chal- lenge to beat them. No one on campus thought we could do it. When we did it, it was like a dream come true at the time. Some people still think it was a fluke, but the point is that the record stands as a victory for Michigan. Murdock was surprised when he was chosen captain this year. "I was surprised, because there are a lot of good seniors on the team. I think it brings a little more pressure to bear on me. A player never wants to let the team down, but when you're a captain you feel this responsi- bility a little bit more. "Traditionally the captains are the leaders of the team, but we've got a unique senior class this year; we're all leaders. Each of us knows what we have to do, and we do it. There are no enemies among us and that helps to mold the team. We have an optimistic attitude; no mat- ter what happens, we'll always end up on top." 4 Fti -Daily-Sara Krulwich Guy Murdock (53) pass blocks FACE SPAR TANS: Baby Blue burst from blocks I11 I UA C-DAYSTAR HOMECOMING 71, i By ELLIOT SEGEL This afternoon at 2 p.m. in East Lansing, the University of Michi- gan will unveil its 1971 freshmen football team.

In closing, Burton stated that this year's freshman team could be every bit as good as last year's squad, who interestingly enough, compiled a 2-1 record with an identical schedule. That can mean only one thing. The winning tradi- tion of Michigan football will be in good hands for another f o u r years. i !i HI-FI BUYS ANN ARBOR-EAST LANSING 618 S.
