Clint Haslerig .. . * . a star is found Dan Borus - THE SUN WASN'T the only thing not shining in Minnesota last Saturday. The Michigan offense wasn't exactly dazzling, either. In a word, the attack lacked an imposing crispness. The blocking on the frontline, with the execption of the early going, was ragged. Costly fumbles, penalties and assorted miscues cost the Wolverines momentum. As a result,'- Michigan, despite dominating the entire game, could engineer but one sustained scoring thrust. Yet a stray spark did make its appearance on the Memorial Stadium turf and lie wore number 43. Senior wing- back Clint Haslerig made his debut toting the pigskin after a six game abstinence. In his maiden attempt running rather than catching the football, the Cincinnati senior gamboled for 58 yards in four attempts. That was good enough to convince mastermind Schembechler that Haslerig will be all right as an offensive weapon. "That's going to stay in our program," Schembechler said yesterday at a low-key press luncheon. "That Haslerig is a fine, fine athlete." For his effort, Haslerig nabbed the weekly "Offensive Champion of the Week" award. All season long, Haslerig - has been employed either as a blocker or as a flanked pass receiver. And with the Michigan passing attack not being the predominant weapon the running attack is, Haslerig hasn't seen the football, or those headlines, much this campaign. 43 has handled the job with relative ease, the recognition has not been his. So it was a welcome change of pace to the wingback to carry the ball. "It's something new again," the happy Haslerig ex- claimed in the Michigan dressing room Saturday. "It's been a long time comin'." Yet with the well-deserved elation was a bit of disappointment. "I think I could have scored the first time. It was a new play that they hadn't seen. Tuck (quick tackle Curtis Tucker) made a heck of a block. The second time (he roamed for 34 yards) it was open I had a TD," said Haslerig, who has yet to hit paydirt. "That pass which Denny just missed me in the endzone was typical of what has happened to me personally this year." Asked how he felt about his sparing use this year, Haslerig shot back, "I'm not used sparingly. Look, I'm a blocker. There's five or six guys on this team who can run the football and they need blocking. I am a football player and that's my job. It's not as glamorous, but it is necessary." "I like running the ball, though," Haslerig grinned, "I don't know how much more I'll carry it, but I sure like it." Someone then pointed out to Haslerig that his 14 plus yards per carry average is the best of "those five or six guys who can run the football." "That's cool," said Haslerig, and he laughed. Minnesota's Cal Stoll wasn't laughing Saturday as he took the time to point out how well Haslerig had played. "Not only did he bring them back on that drive when they were stopped by a clip, but he was busting us pretty good with his blocks. That Haslerig's a pretty good player." It was about this time two years ago that Schembechler un- leashed Haslerig's predecessor at the wingback slot, Glenn Doughty. Doughty, another superlative athlete, had languished in the shadows of tailback Billy Taylor until the sixth game of the 1971 season when Bo turned him loose. Actually the counter Haslerig ran last Saturday was not exactly the inside counter that most teams run from the forma- I 0 Blocking from Haslerig's slot is not the easiest of tasks tion. It was rather more of a reverse. Little difference. Haslerig because of the assignments drawn and the field position of the ran it well, kicking up a cloud of dust on that windy day in wingback when his block must be thrown. Although number Minneapolis-a cloud that should have been sighted in Columbus. Daily Photo by DAVID MARGOLICK Haslerig makes his move Sports of The Daily The Keith Brown saga Keith Brown's battle for eligibility took a turn for the worse last week when the Big Ten decided to review the events lead- ing to his regaining good standing. Brown, a junior, has been Michigan's top cross country runner since enrolling at Mich- igan three years ago. The Wolverines hopes for a first place in the Big Ten hinge on a strong showing by him. The shaggy-haired harrier, who was forced to drop out last winter due to financial reasons (he only has a partial scholarship), was six credits short of junior standing when school began this September. According to University aca- demic officials, Brown made up these credits by earning seven hours through advance placement tests. Unfortunately for Brown and- Michigan's cross country team, one Big Ten school protested this decision, citing a Big Ten rule which states an athlete who is ineligible at the start of a semester cannot regain his eligibility during that same semester. Brown and the Michigan Athletic Department pro- tested the protest and petitioned the Big Ten Eligibility Com- mittee for a review. At the present time Brown's status for this Saturday's Big Ten championships is still undecided. A decision is expected shortly. -MIKE LISULL A matter of priorites The Michigan basketball team took the floor of Crisler Arena at their usual 3:30 practice time yesterday only to find the court occupied by another crew: Bo's football squad. The foot- ballers had decided to forsake their usual Ferry Field location and practice in a drier location. Coach Schembechler was unavailable for comment as to why his team had changed its usual practice routine. Several explanations were offered, some libelous and none verifiable. One. team official stated that to had grown soft in his old age, and did not want his boys practicing in yesterday's miserable, rainy weather. Possibly the best explanation was given by one of the assistant football coaches, who stated that Schembechler wanted to break the practice routine in order to avoid mid- season blahs on the part of his players. At any rate, the gridiron heroes spent close to an hour running back and forth and up and down Crisler Arena. When the cagers finally began practice, they concentrated on their fast break, potentially an effective weapon for Mich- igan this year. "I feel we were much more aggressive than we were at the scrimmage," volunteered Coach Johnny Orr about his team's practice. --JOHN KAHILER * * 'M'-OSU kickoff at 12:50 The Michigan Athletic Department clarified yesterday that the Nov. 24 showdown between the Wolverines and Ohio State will start at 12:50 p.m., 40 minutes earlier than usual. The American Broadcasting Company (ABC) requested the earlier starting time in order to televise both the Michigan game and the USC-UCLA battle, which will follow promptly at 4 p.m. * * * Ruggers take double dip Plagued throughout the day by penalties, the Michigan Ruby Club suffered two losses in home games last Saturday against Flint. Both contests were close affairs. The Blue team fell 6-4, while the Gold squad was disappointed 10-8. The Rugby Club's present record stands at 3-6 for the Blues, 2-4 for the Gold.

Lindskog is the younger broth- er of sophomore defenseman Tom Lindskog which, incidental- ly, brings us to the Michigan defense. The blue-liners should be much improved over last year. They'll have to be. Last season Michigan's defense was so porous that oppos- ing forwards were able to un!oad 46 shots per game on Blue goal- tenders. But Lindskog, captain Randy Trudeau, and Greg Fox each own another year's experience. And Farrell believes that freshmen Dave Shand of Base Borden, On tario and Bob Palmer of Dor Mills, Ontario, should help. Both are 6-1 and 180 lbs. and are term. ed "great prospects" by Farrell who is hoping to cut down tha shots-allowed average by as mucl as a third. Players/T -esents " The Top 20 AP Poll 1.

And that's just the beginning. Since the language barrier constitutes the preponderate difficulty in succeed- ing at a foreign school, the Euromed program also includes an intensive 12 week medical and conversational language course, mandatory for all students. Five hours daily, the course is given in the country where the stu- dent will attend medical school. In addition, the European Medical Students Placement Service provides students with a 12 week i;tensive cultural orientation course, with Amer- ican students now studying medicine in that particular country serving as counselors. Senior or graduate students currently enrolled in an American university are eligible to participate in the Euromed program. I I i i E 1 OLYMPUS SYSTEM See it 0 I I i IWORINF.Aildh m _, __
