Saturday, September 14, 1974 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Pnn C.vp r -t Jv r rt 'Big 'Bo's two'I vs. jittl Ar4'k eight' begins again revenge' begins THE LINEUPS MIICHIGAN Offense IOWA Woody's Bucks primed with Iowa Hawkeyes By JOHN KAHLER The Michigan Wolverines kick off their 1974 season at 1:30 to- day, in Michigan Stadium against the Iowa Hawkeyes, and Bo Schembechler is predicting a tough contest. This is hardly unusual; Bo always predicts his games will be tough, no matter how weak the opponent. , But even paranoids have real enemies, and the Hawk- eyes have given the Michigan coaches more cause for con- cern than their 0-11 record from last season would in- dicate. Bo must take a team that has been in semi-limbo all week over the status of quarterback Dennis Franklin against an Iowa bunch that features a new coach and an old offense. Franklin, a prime candidate for the Heisman trophy and the only experienced signal caller on the Michigan roster, missed several practices last week with a virus infection. He will play this afternoon, but how long and how effectively remains to be seen. Before Franklin took ill, the They will be running against a Michigan line that has been _jtotally reconstructed from last flail y year Ends Dan Jilek and Larry Johnson, tackles Jeff Perlinger and Greg Morton, and middle! guard Tim Davis will get their first test as a unit today.

Rob.Lytle and Gordon Bell have been waging a tight battle for the tailback position throughout the autumn dills. Lytle will start, but bothdwill see action, splitting playing time about 50-50.

Warns Moeller, "We tell the players that Iowa is not an 0-11 team. They are an 0-0 team, just like we are. Commings teams have always been great on execution, and he will bring them in here fired up and ready to go." Iowa will no longer be an 0-0 team after this afternoon. And no one is willing to bet that they will leave town 1-0. By STEVE KIRSCHNER Coach Cal Stoll of Minnesota has placed his Gophers in se- clusion to prepare for Ohio j State in a Big Ten football opener in Minneapolis today. "We wanted to get away from; the distractions on the campus1 at home," Stoll explained in a telephone report this week from a lake resort near Alexandria, Minn., 130 miles northwest of Minneapolis. REALISTICALLY, the Goph-! ers might as well stay there3 until tomorrow as it probably wouldn't affect the outcome of~ the game all that much. Simply stated, the Buckeyes are again loaded with talent. They remainj ever threatening on offense and awesome defensively. On offense, they are led by last year's MVP in the Big Ten, Archie Griffin, who estab- lished the all-time Conference rushing record of 1,577 yards. QB Cornelius Greene proved in last year's Rose Bowl that he is an accurate passer as well as la nimble runner The FB snot er in the conference last year, while Bohlig claimed runner-up honors in both passing and total offense categories. THE BOILERMAKERS, mean- while, will rely on the talents of backs Mike Northington and Scott Dierking as well as split- end speedster Larry Burton. Defensively, both squads lost key seniors to graduation and the resulting inexperience will further add to an offensive battle. The combination of 36 return- ing lettermen and QB Mitch Anderson's passing talents serve to make Northwestern a dan- gerous and talented team this season as they clash with Mich- igan State in East Lansing to- day. THE SPARTANS can look for- 30phers ward to the return of a healthy Charlie Baggett at QB. Blend in the power running FB Clar- ence Bullock and State could move the ball much better ;his year. Defensively, both squads are shallow. State fears for it's green secondary while the Wild- cats ranked ninth in the con- ference in total defense last year. Indiana, winless in the con- ference at 0-8 last season, will try for ball control at Illinois with the Big Ten's biggest of- fensive line, a ve ra g i n g251 pounds.

Ron Warhurst, new distance. coach, optimistically comment- on this year's squad. "We've got the personnel to run with any team in the Big Ten and a good chance of win- ning it. Attitudes are very good despite some disruption involved in moving over to the new field- house." The freshman crop should 'prove a strong spot this sea- son as several moved into key varsity positions during last week's time trials. Warhurst had nothing but praise for Jay Amstead, Mike McGuire, Sam Duran, Bill Donakowski, Dave Furst and Tom Schmidt. "Although I'm not emphasiz- ing this meet as much as some others, you should remember that this will be the first dis- tance race for the incoming freshmen and they're all fired t3 up," Warhurst remarked. Stalwarts Jon Cross and Keith Brown, Michigan record holders in the six and three mile re- spectively, will team up with Big Ten steeple chase cham- pion Greg Meyer to lead the Blue. Warhurst looks for An- steatt, McGuire, and Donakow- ski to fill out the last three spots. Read and Use Daily Classifieds somting new You're always trying something new.

Mario Guerrero singled, Pet-1 rocelli stopping at third and Guerrero taking second on the throw to home plate. Both runners scored on Bob Mont- gomery's single to left.
