Although the first nine games aren't overly imposing on paper, Schembechler is not, taking them lightly.G The Wildcats of Arizona, open up the Wolverine schedule hereI at Ann Arbor, and if one goes strictly by paper, the score should be as lopsidede in Michigan's favor as was the Wolverines 42-14 opening victory over Vanderbilt. last year. The Wildcats, who won just, three games last year, will be" trying to develop a fine crop of sophomores. Their quarterback, Brian Lind- strom, is a junior, and has been rated in many polls as one of the' 15 best passers in football. It's been eight months since the Wolverines made a trip to thei West Coast, and in their second game of the year, they will visit Seattle to confront the Washing- ton Huskies for the second straight year. The score of last year's1 debacle was 45-7 in favor of Michigan.- Michigan's conference opener is1 Purdue. The game is being played; at Lafayette, which could mean big trouble because the Boiler- makers have. been virtually in- vincible there in the last decade.j WITHOUT Mike Phipps, the Boilermakers -will be somewhat weaker on offense. However, new coach Bob DeMoss, who has de- veloped quarterbacks like Bob Griese and Lenny Dawson in the past, feels he can do it again with his four sophomore prospects. t Added to Purdue's problems is their defense. Four-fifths of the defensive line and All-American defensive back Tim Foley have graduated and DeMoss will have his work cut out for him finding suitable replacements. The next weekend, the Wolver- ines come home to face arch- rival Michigan State before an SRO crowd of 130,000 plus. It al- ways seems that the relative strengths of each squad means very little when they plat. MSU coach Duffy Daugherty' feels he has solved his quarter- backing problems with Mike Ras- mussen, a junior college transfer. Last year's quarterback, Bill Trip- lett, is now a running back, but he could be moved back if Ras- mussen doesn't make the grade. Following the tension and , ex- citement of the State game there could very well be a tendency for a letdown as the Wolverines hostI THEIR DEFENSE is very solid with all but two lettermen re- turning. It was this defense that held Michigan to just one touch-, down in the first half of last year's battle and with the right breaks they could make times ve'y difficult for the Wolverines. In the next three games, the Wolverines face the weaker but still potentially troublesome teams' of the conference - Wisconsin. Illinois and Iowa. The Badger offense is consider- ed one of the best in the confer- ence. led by quarterback Neil Graff and Alan Thompson, both juniors. Graff netted 1086 yards, and seven TD passes while Thompson rushed for 907 yards last season. The Illini can be expected to have a strong desire to play a game after last year's 51-7 humil- iation. Illinois has to build from scratch and head coach Jim Velek will be doing a good deal of experiment- ing with his offensive plans, all of which could help him in future' years but certainly not this year. Valek is very high on sophomore passer Mike Wells. who, will be doing plenty of passing to John Bedalow, Tom Mullins and Willie: Osley. Will be tough in the confermnce- With Lawrence gone, Nagel's main concern is to find a replacement. The three sophs fighting for the job are Frank Saunderman, Jeff Elgin and Kyle Skogman. Any one of them will have very fine re- ceivers to throw to, , including Kerry Readon. If the defense can come through, led by linebacker Ike White, the Hawkeyes will be a team to watch out for. It is really doubtful that the Wolverines will be able to walk all over the Tawk- eyes as they did last year bya 51-6 score. After the Iowa game, the Wol- verines will prepare to meet the Bucks in Columbus. By then, even Schembechler will have eyes fo- cused on the contest. 19 26 3 10 17 24 31 7 14 21 SEPTEMBER ARIZONA at Washinigton OCTOBER TEXAS A&M at Purdue MICIIGAN STATE MINNESOTA at Wisconsin NOVEMBER ILLINOIS IOWA at Ohio State -Daily--Jay Casidyt Donii Moorhead (27) scampers for glory 'l s WASHINGTON'S offense man- aged just 16 touchdowns last year, while they won only one game.

That's right, championship rugby is invading Palmer Field with a doubleheader every, football Sat- urday beginning at 9 a.m. The' Michigan Rugby Football; *Club has finally found :a perman- ent home. No longer will hill area students have to make the 1.37 mile walk to Ferry field to see the "nationally ranked" ruggers in action. Rugby, in brief explanation, is ,an offspring of soccer and very, similar to American football. It is a very 'simple game to follow; and, like football, the object of the game is to move the ball over the goal line. The name of the game, as well as the game itself, originated by accident in an experiment in Eng- land in 1823. During a \s o c c e r game at Rugby School one of the players (rightfully named Wil- liam Webb Ellis) carried the ball and a new variation of soccer was formed, although nothing result- ed from the experiment until 1839. The game was renewed at Cam- bridge during an intramural soc- cer game, and called Rugby's game An ideal rugby field has maxi- mum dimensions of 75 yards by 110 yards with 25 yard end zones. Palmer field is 75 yards by 100 Vyards. Each team consists of 15 play- ers. The players are divided into three units making up the "life cycle of attack" the "ball get- ters," the "link and pivot," and the "penetrators." Play begins in either a scrummage, a ruck a line-out, a maul, or a kick-off which opens each 40 minute half. There is a five minute half-time and no time-outs or substitutions. Like football the kickoff to start the game must travel ten yards and then it i$ a "live" ball. A play- er may advance the ball by run- ning with it kicking it forward or passing it backward similar to the pitch-out or lateral in football. This is the best way of advancing. Unlike football blocking is not al- lowed. When a tackle is made the ball getters form a ruck to move the 'ball along the ground -to the "link and pivot." The scrum-half gets the attack formed by pitching the ball b a c k to the "penetrators" who are also called the "three- quarters line." A series of pitch- outs 'and runs are used to gain yardage. Scoring is divided into four ar- eas. A touchdown, called a try, is Mr. Mini's f,-ind' worth three points. The b be touched down within1 zone for the try to cou conversion, which is wo points, is kicked through rights at least 20 yards b perpendicular to the goa from the spot of touchdom common for a rugger fre end zone to attempt to to ball down toward the ee the field thus gettingbett tion for the conversion.
