Page Six I HE MICHIGAN DAILY Saturday, October, 1973 Page SIx I HE MICHIGAN LJAILY Saturday, October 6, '1973 1~ Michigan challenge ready from to repel 0regon " Major Le By The Associated Press BALTIMORE-Manager Earl Weaver, sticking with a platoon system which produced a division championship, will bench Baltimore's top two hitters in to- day's opener of the American League playoffs. Oakland Manager Dick Williams said he expected themove, which also places 'veteran first baseman Boog Powell on the bench, and said it had influenced his decision to start left-hander Vida Blue against Jim Palmer of the Orioles. Williams said he chose Blue, one of three Oakland 20-game winners, because "he was one of our hottest pitchers over the last half of the season, and because ague Playoffs Fluttering Ducks fear tarnished Blue Crew I figured that would get their two fast men and Powell out of the game." Rookie outfielders Al Bumbry and Rich Coggins, who topped the Orioles with .337 and .319 averages, were the speedsters Williams had in mind. During the season they combined for five home runs off Jim "Catfish" rHunter, Oak- land's starter in Game No. 2 of the best- of-five series. * * * The New York Mets, winners of the National League Eastern Division with a mediocre 82-79 record, send ace right- hander Tom Seaver against Cincinnati's Jack Billingham in a fnatchup of two begin 19-game winners in today's playoff opener. Billingham, who missed yesterday's workout due to a minor virus, led the league in shutouts with seven and had a 2-0 record against the Mets. Seaver, a three-time 20-game winner for theuMets, has not beaten the Reds since June of 1972. He has only eight lifetime victories against the Reds in 20 decisions. But his 135 victories in seven seasons lead the major leagues. "He's the best pitcher in baseball," said an admiring George "Sparky" An- derson, manager of the Reds. .i By JEFFREY CHOWN 1 Duck hunting doesn't officially begin until October 10. But after last week's lack-luster 14-0 win over Navy, the Michigan Wol- verines may be inclined to do a little "poaching" at Michigan 'Stad- ium today in an effort to atone for9 last weeks drop in the ratings. The quarry will be the hapless Oregon Ducks, now sporting an unimpres- sive 0-3 record. But before writing the web-feet off as "cannon-fodder", perhaps we should investigate what led Bo Schembechler to rate them as "an outstanding football team." The important thing about those three defeats is that Ore- gon was in all three games. In fact, the Ducks lead their op- ponents in total first downs and total plays at this point. But as coach Dick Enright is quick to point out: "We also led all three opponents in mistakes made." The Michigan-Oregon encount- er will begin this afternoon at 1:30 p.m. and will be broadcast over radio stations WAAM 1600 AM; WPAG 1050 AM; WUOM 91.7 FM; and WWJ 950 AM. The game will also be telecast via Cable Channel 3 on Sunday night at 8:00 and Wednesday night at 8:30. And as Michigan's first t h r e e opponents have demonstrated - you don't male mistakes against good teams and expect to win. The Ducks haven't played pushovers. Their first four opponents -Ari- backs this year. They've all start- ed a minimum of two years." Wolverine tackles Curtis Tucker and Jim Cgode should get a go-,d workout from Oregon left tackta Reggie Lewis. The 6-2, 247 pound tackle was voted the premier de- fensive lineman of the Pacific Eight Conference by the pre-season skywriters. Enright describes him: "What a combination. He's got the quickness and speed of a back, and the strength of a lineman. Then he's smart, too." Another Duck to watch is 6-6, 235 lbs. tight end Russ Francis. Folks in Oregon think the talented junior could show up Michigan's P a u 1 Seal, who is billed as one of the best. Both coaches Schembechler and Enright appear to be playing the game of praising the opponent and not bragging about their own team. Enright: "I think Michigan ought to be ranked higher. I real- ly think they have a strong team, and a real hitting club. I hope they're merciful. Right now I wish I was playing Idaho.", Schembechler: "This team is a much better team than an 0-3 record. They're going to win a lot of games. Big plays and mis- takes have -beaten them. Films show us that this will be an out- standing game." After last week's showing, Mich- igan should be fired up to prove themselves worthy of their national ranking. Oregon has some out- standing individuals and should they overcome their inexperience and metal mistakes they could put up a good fight. In any case, Duck- hunting may start a bit early.

A key factor in today's en- counter could be injuries. Michi- gan received a set-back when senior offensive guard Mike Ho- ban seriously injured his knee in practice Thursday. Hoban will miss today's action. Quarterback Dennis Franklin is ailing with a broken finger on the left hand. Unconfirmed rumors say he will see only limited action this af- ternoon. Hoban will have an able replacement in senior Gary Hainrihar who will move from right guard to left guard. The Ducks also have injury woes. Punter, and starting split end Bob Palm was unable to make the trip because of an injury sustained ear- lier this week. Also, second string slot back and kick-off return spec- ialist Johnny Kerr will be side- lined. The strong point of the Oregon attack has got to be junior tail- back Don Reynolds. In recently re- leased statistics Reynolds was re- vealed to be number two in the nation in total offense, and num- ber six among the nation's rushing leaders. Reynolds, 5-8, 181 lbs., has accounted for 391 yards of the team's total of 381 yards gained in rushing. (The rest of the rushers have lost more than they have gained). Second leading ground gainer on the team is freshman Rick Kane with 55 yards in 21 car- ries. Schembechler touts Reynolds as "the outstanding runner on the coast right now. He'll be one of the most exciting players to come in Michigan stadium this year." It will be interesting to see how Reynolds does against the Michigan line. Last week the Maize and Blue held another fine runner, Cleveland Cooper, to 44 yards in 18 carries. The Michigan mentor has also pointed to the fact that no one has run against Oregon this year. (426 yards in three games) Coach En- right wasn't willing to compliment this effort, pointing to the yard- age given up on passing: "We've faced three really fine quarter-! arriers By MIKE LISULL Running like an animal returned to his natural environment, Uni- versity of Michigan runner Jon Cross led the field in the U.S.T.F.F.

Freshman sensation Greg Myer was up with the leaders for most of the way but he finally faded to third with a time of 14.28.8. More good news for cross country fans came in the package of fourth place Bill Bolster. Bolster who placed in the top ten in the Big Ten last year is finally rounding into shape and he recorded a 14.33.2, his best effort of the year.r Fifth place went to junior Dave too] "Steady" Eddy with a time of in t 14.36.0.
