Newspaper and radio station switchboards lit up from Pensacola to Miami 'as Floridians checked out Friday's radio broadcasts reporting that two spaceships were being hidden in, of all places, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. The source, it turned out, was a 20- year-old flying saucer story. Robert Carr, a former Hollywood screen writer promoting a Flying Saucer Symposium, repeated information published twenty years ago during a broadcast. The report included details on the bodies of 12 little spacemen who were allegedly being deep-frozen at Ohio's military base. It was later vigorously denied. 0 Unicorn hunting More twisted goings-on: In Sault Ste. Marie, the one-week season for unicorn hunting is over, and unicorn hunters have pronounced it a smashing success. Oddly, though, not one unicorn was taken. William Rabe, architect of the Lake Superior State College Unicorn Hunters, explained the apparent contradiction: "It's been a very successful season because no one was actually reported taking a unicorn." Rabe reports that there have been "liter- ally thousands" of sightings reported from Aus- tralia to Jamaica. "And the number of sightings seems to increase in direct proportion to the lateness of the hour," he added. The Lake Superior State College Unicorn Hunters have issued 5,000 unicorn hunting licenses in past years. On the inside .. . . Sunday Magazine Contributing Editor Mary Long writes about a unique, multi-ethnic child care center in Ann Arbor . . and on the Sports Page, George Iastings and John Kahler discuss interesting sidelights to yesterday's triumph over Bo's boys spank partans, 21-7 By ROGER ROSSITER The Michigan W o 1 v e r i n e s used a reliable Schembechlerian combination-tough defense and exploitation of timely turnovers-to grind out a 21-7 victory over the arch-rivals Spartans from Michigan State University (MSU), before a damp crowd of 104,682 at Michigan Stadium yesterday. In a drizzly, irritating rain, Michigan scored at both ends of the first half, and somewhere in between, defenseman Dan Jilek cuddled a Spar- tan fumble in the end zone to round out the home team scoring. That was all the Wolverines needed to beat MSU for the fifth straight year-- and stretch this season's tally to 5-0. THE WOLVERINE offense, hampered by the rain and the third-quarter loss of quarterback Dennis Franklin, showed little spark, but the Spartans could only manage a lonely fourth- quarter touchdown against a spirited Blue de- fense. "Anytime you win 21-7 in an emotional game like this, it's a big win," said Michigan coach Bo Schembechler later. "I was very disappointed with our offense in the second half. I don't ms u mistlakes decide contest blame the kids, I blame myself. We should have run right at them." Michigan used the ground game exclusively to score the game's first touchdown, driving 48 yards after a Spartan punt. TAILBACK Gordon Bell took a pitch from quarterback Dennis Franklin and tiptoed 10 yards around right end for the first touchdown. Bell carried five times for 29 yards in the nine- play drive, and tackle Jim Hall fell on a Franklin fumble at the MSU 25 to keep the march alive. The teams exchanged a punt and a fumble each, and MSU blew an attempted field goal before Michigan scored again in the second quarter. MSU was forced to punt from its own 21 yard line, but the pass from center bounced to punter Tom Birney. Michigan ends Dan Jilek and Mike Holmes hit Birney at the 5, and the ball squirted loose into the end zone where Jilek recovered for a Michigan touchdown. MIKE LANTRY'S second conversion kick gave Michigan a 14-0 lead. Michigan gained possession at its own 35 with less than 1 minutes to play in the half, and an unusual MSU defensive error gave the Wol- verines their third touchdown. Franklin put Michigan in field goal range, hitting Gil Chapman with a 17-yard aerial to MSU's 32. But Spartan defensive end Otto Smith sacked Franklin at the State 44 on the next play, blunting any chance for a Lantry field goal. SCHEMBECHLER elected to go for the touch- down, and Franklin hit split end Jim Smith, all alone at the MSU goal line, as the half's final five seconds ticked off the stadium clock. "I was very surprised they weren't in a wasn't the Spartans' problem. "We had the de- fense diagrammed on the blackboard," Stolz said. "We just didn't play it well." MICHIGAN collected only three first downs in the entire second half, with two in the game's final minute, as the Spartan defense tightened and completely shut off the Wolverines. Schembechler blamed "bad coaching on my part" for the offensive collapse, adding, "I didn't give the team the opportunity to score." "We just couldn't get together a good drive," sighed Franklin. "Maybe we didn't run as much inside as we usually do, but we just did't execute." WHILE THERE was no word last night on the results of X-rays on Franklin taken later at University Hospital, the injury was apparently very slight. The victory did not come easily, but the Wol- verines "were looking for a tough game" accord- ing to defensive tackle Greg Morton.

JURY TO HEAR 33 TAPES: Nixognmay play key role itrial WASHINGTON (Reuter) - Watergate special pro- secutor Leon Jaworski yesterday announced he is resign- ing - only a day after the jury was sworn in for the Watergate cover-up trial. In a letter to Attorney General William Saxbe, Ja- worski said that since the trial of five one-time aides to former President Nixon is about to begin, the remaining investigations could be directed by another special prose- cutor. JAWORSKI emphasized that his resignation - effective October 25 - was in no way connected with the controversial pardon President Ford granted Mr. Nixon last month. Jaworski told the attorney general: "In view of suggestions that an indictment be returned hLt against former President Rich- ard Nixon questioning the valid- ity of the pardon granted him, I think it proper that I ... dis- pel any thought that there may be some relation between my resignation and that issue." He said there was nothing in-f the special prosecutor's charter or guidelines to impair or cur- tail the President's free exer- cise of the right to pardon. TO SECURE an indictment of Mr. Nixon for his part in the Watergate scandal solely to test4 the legality of the pardon would be spurious, unprofessional and a violation of his responsibility, Jaworski said. Jaworski was appointed spe- cial prosecutor 11 months ago after his predecessor, Archibald Jaworski Cox, was fired by Nixon for challenging him on the release of tape recordings of White House conversations relating to the Watergate scandal In what became known as the "Saturday Night Massacre," at- torney General Elliot Richardson and his deputy William Ruckels haus quit the Nixon administration rather than carry out his orders to dismiss Cox. Jaworski, a 69-year-old Houston lawyer, had been expected to resign as special prosecutor once the jury was picked for the trial of five former Nixon aides charged with sonspiring to conceal top-level involvement in the Watergate scandal: the break-in at the Democratic party's Watergate office block headquarters in June, 1972. The 12-member jury and six alternates were sworn in Friday WASHINGTON 0-4) - From 3,000 miles away, Richard Nixon may have a bigger impact on the Watergate cover-up trial than any person or piece of evidence that goes before the jury. First, there are the tapes. The jury will hear hours and hours of conversations with Nixon's voice as well as those of the five defendants and other principals in the case. WATERGATE prosecutors plan to introduce 33 separate presidential conversations. Handling the government's case in court will be assistant prosecutor Richard Ben-Veniste, as had been planned before Ben-Veniste's chief, s p e c i a 1 prosecutor Leon Jaworski, an- nounced yesterday he was re- signing. Because the courtroom testi- mony may be conflicting, the Nixon tapes will add up to the most important block of evi- dence in the trial. WITNESSES such as former White House counsel John Dean, whose credibility has been an issue, would ordinarily be troublesome additions to the prosecution's case. But when augmented by Nix- on's voice in conversations with Dean or when the former President discusses on tape events about which Dean testi- fies, the tapes become a kind of check and balance, a second method for the jury to decide if they believe Dean's testimony. While Nixon was resting his phlebitis-stricken left leg at his seaside estate in San Clemente, Calif., last week, hundreds of potential jurors in Washington were being asked if Nixon's par- don would affect their ability to return a guilty verdict against the defendants in the case, in which Nixon is among 19 un- indicted co-conspirators. MANY ANSWERED yes-so many that the prosecutors wor- ried that defense lawyers might pick a jury of persons unwilling to convict, even if the evidence were strong enough. Of course, it is not publicly known how many of the 12 jurors finally chosen-they are largely middle-aged, middle class, and female-believe it is unfair to prosecute some of Nixon's closest former aides, while the ex-president goes free. However, the, danger of a stacked jury was severe enough that U.S. District Judge John Sirica devised a special method for the final round of jury se- lection, just to make sure the defense had no special advan- tage. NIXON'S testimony is being sought by former White House chief of staff H. R. Haldeman and former White House do- mestic affairs chief John Ehr- lichman, who wants the former See WATERGATE, Page 2 for the trial which formally gets underway tomorrow. __ _ _ _ Gunmen Seize radio station; later give up MONTGOMERY, Ala. 0P) - Three black gunmen took over radio station WAPX in a hail of gunfire yesterday that left a white security guard dead.
