Saturday., September 15, 1973 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Fage. seven I __ Wolverines eye Hawks in first test By FRANK LONGO Special To The Daily IOWA CITY - It's the day of the game, and the question no- body around here seems able to answer is: Who's going to start at quarterback for Iowa? The Michigan Wolverines. ar- rived in town yesterday ready to open their 1973 campaign, slept safely at the Holiday Inn down the road from Nile Kinnick Sta- dium, and awoke this morning not knowing which Hawkeye sig- nal-caller would start in today's 29th renewal of the Iowa-Mich- igan series. Two months of spring drills and three weeks worth of fall practice haven't entirely helped Hawkeye Head C o a c h Frank Lauterbur decide upon his num- ber one field general. Senior Kyle Skogman and sophomore Butch Caldwell have run head-to head since last season ended, and since Lauterbur has kept practices strictly closed for the last week, nobody knows for' sure. Michigan, however, has its starting crew set, and from most points of view will improve its series standing with the Hawk- eyes tos22 wins, 4tlosses and 3 ties. Head Coach Bo Schembech- ler, entering his fifth Ann Arbor- based season with a 38-6 mark, sends junior quarterback Dennis Franklin against Iowa, the team outscored by Michigan 94-7 in their last two meetings. Schembechler p r a i s e d the daily sports NIGHT EDITOR: JIM ECKER Hawkeyes' young but veteran squad -all fall, proclaiming to- day's game "the toughest opener we've had since I've been at Michigan." But Bo and the Mich- igan public relations people who have spent the week in Iowa City have had trouble convincing the folks here that the Wolves expect a tough tussle against the Hawks. "Bo complains all the time about injuries," observed one Iowa writer, "but when the sea- son starts he always seems to have his players ready." In addi- tion, most people realize that Iowa's struggling offense, com- bined with Michigan's veteran defense, lesson the Hawkeyes' chances of pulling this one off. There is one person here who craves an Iowa upset. Chalmers (Bump) Elliott-a three sports star in his playing days at Mich- igan-today holds the top athletic administrative post at Iowa. A brilliant football halfback who earned All-America honors in 1947, and later Michigan's head coach for ten years, Elliott is in his fourth year as athletic director here and would love nothing m o r e than shocking Michigan's, defending conference co-champions in the season's opener. PIGSKIN prognosticaters place the Hawkeyes anywhere from third to sixth in the Big Ten this year, with almost everybody ex- pecting an improvement on last season's 3-7-1 record. Michigan, on the other hand, is seen finish- ing no lower than second and expected by many to cop the conference crown. But all forecasting aside, the Wolverines unveil today the grid- iron machine which 1) Has an established quarterback starting the season for the first time in three years; 2) Returns much' of the defense which has been the stingiest in the nation in allowing points the last two years; and 3) Remembers the 1972 season finale well enough to inspire them in their quest of a 25th Big Ten title. Today's ballgame will provide an early barometer on this year's Mich- igan football balloon. Project Community Course Chance to become: involved in and lesarn about your community for course credit.

But the Gophers may not be a very obliging victim. Minnesota gavej Ohio State all it could handle a year ago, reeling off 306 yards be- fore succumbing 27-19. "We know Ohio State has a great team again," says Gopher Coach Cal Stoll. "But that fact does not defer our aims. We are going to Columbus with every hope of giv-! ing the Buckeyes all they want, and then some." At Bloomington, the Indiana-Illi- nois contest will feature a battle between two of the flakier coaches in the Big Ten. Indiana's new coach, Lee Corso, and Illinois' Bob Blackman, entering his third year at the helm of the Illini, are noted for their colorful approach to the. game and doing the unexpected.' If nothing else, today's opener between Northwestern and Mich- igan State will offer an interest- ing matchup of quarterbacks. Northwestern quarterback Mitch Anderson set a single-game Big Ten passing record against the Spartans last year by throwing for a total of 351 yards. Michigan State is starting junior, transfer Charlie Baggett, who has; never really been put to the test! but has been getting raves from the coaching staff.

LOUIS - Bob Robertson's check-swing single capped a three- run uprising in the first inning, that lifted the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 3-1 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals last night. Pirate right-hander Nelson Briles checked his ex-teammates on eight hits before giving way to reliever Ramon Hernandez in the seventh as Pittsburgh boosted its lead in baseball's National League East to 1 games over the Montreal the game but ran into trouble when Dave Parker beat out an infield hit. Al Oliver was hit by a pitch, Willie Stargell's bad-hop single scored Parker and Richie Hebner's towering fly ball to right field hit the wall for a double and scored Oliver. Milt May was 'walked intention- ally and Robertson then delivered his single to left center, scoring Stargell to climax the rally.

You probably think that a chance at winning a free Mr. Pizza pizza isn't worth the enormous mental anguish. Undoubtedly to your shock and amazement, we, the eager beavers of the Daily sports staff, actually found someone who either had time for our contest, or was sufficiently spurred by dreams of the mouth- caressing pizza to make time for it. He is U.S. Senator Dick Clark (D-Iowa, we don't bother with Republicans), a freshman in the upper chamber. Clark consented to make the selections after Brady Williamson of the Senator's staff de-j clined to make the selections himself because of a busy schedule. CLARK LEFT an important tete-a-tete in the Senate gymnasium to talk to the Daily. Being a Democrat (i.e. friend of the underdogs), Clark gritted his teeth and chose his homestate Iowa Hawkeyes over the Wolverines. His otherwise astute- picks show a keen knowledge of football, indicating 'he may very well follow the sport as avidly as a more publicized Washington resident, who, according to some flunky named Ziegler, was implicated in a game of checkers and couldn't come to the phone. We really did talk to Clark. If you don't believe us, call the Senate gym and ask him yourself. Thanks, and a tip of the Hatlo hat to former Senator Jack Miller (R-Iowa) for suggesting whom to call. The Senator's picks are in CAPITALS. George Foster flied out but Johnny Bench walked, loading the bases. Gagliano followed with his single, tying the score and then Tolan de- livered the decisive single. NATIONAL LEAGUE East W L Pct.
