The World Football League went
fishing for players and claimed
some big fish in yesterday's pre-
liminary six round draft. But de-.
spite the bait the fish may not bite..
The as ~yet-unnamed Detroit fran-
chise, which drafted last on odd
rounds and first on even rounds,'
used its six picks to come back
with three Michigan stars.
Drafting last in the first
round in the fledgling organiza-
tion's player selection process,
the still unnamed team, which
lacks a general manager and a
coach, tabbed Michigan tight end
and co-captain Paul Seal as its,
first choice.
Louis Lee, one- time Michigan
assistant coach who represented
the club in the New York draft,j
mindful of a potential gate, picked
Michigan fullback Ed Shuttles-
worth in the fourth round. and
Maize and Blue wingback, Clint
Haselrig in the sixth.
In addition, the Detroit club ob-
tained rights to Ohio State out-
side linebacker Rick Middleton and!
Tennessee State's Ed "Too Tall"
Jones.
Michigan's All-American defen-
sive tackle Dave Gallagher was,
picked by the Boston Bulls in the
fourth round.
Memphis, which drafted first in
the first round and last in the sec-
ond round, chose Kansas quarter-
back David Jaynes as the first
WFL'er. Boston followed by pick-
ing Boston College quarterback
Gary Marangi. Heisman Trophy
winner John Capelletti was the
eighth player selected. He was
chosen by Philadelphia.
The draft did have some sur-
prises. John Hicks, Ohio State's
highly touted tackle, ,went to
Florida in the second round. His
teammate, linebacker R a n d y
Gradishar, also highly acclaimed
in the press, had to wait until
Boston picked him in the thirdF
round.

Don Fardig and Paul Paris-
two seemingly typical hockey
players. F a r d i g, a sophomore
from Taylor, Mich., seems harm-
less enough with his quiet, sober
manner. And frankly Paris, a
junior from St. Hyacinthe, Que-
bec, seems to hide no deceiving
motives. Few would suspect that
these two are trained killers.
T h e s e two mild - mannered
skaters are sent out onto the ice
by Coach Dan Farrell after Mich-
igan is penalized and is short-
handed. Numbers 14 and 15 at

Sports of- The Daily

Kevin Casey still
Contrary to what you may

ed to waste away opponents'
power play opportunities. These
two men are the penalty killers.
FARRELL HAS looked all sea-
son for the right combination of
forwards for the penalty killing
situations. It is vital for a team
to be able to defend in short-
handed situations and the Wol-
verines penalty killing "was not
nearly what I had hoped it to
be" according to Farrell.
But in the duo of Fardig and
Paris Coach Farrell may stop
searching. In Friday night's ac-
tion the persistent pair were par-
ticularly instrumental in poking,
checking, and icing the life out
of seven Wisconsin power-play
opportunities as a sellout Madi-
son crowd watched in horror.
The penalty-killers spoiled 14
minutes of scoring opportunities
of the Badgers and kept Mich-
igan in the game, allowing Pat
Hughes to score Michigan's third
and winning goal at 5:17 of the
overtime period.
"That was my job," smiled
the 5-8, 160-pound Paris, explain-
ing his success against the us-
ually overpowering Badgers. "I
feel really good about it."
OF COURSE, Paris and Fardig
were not the only men on the ice
in short handed situations. De-
fensemen Randy Trudeau and
Dave Shandwere usually play-
ing during this time and per-
formed well in -preventing the
Badgers from getting inside.
And goalie Robbie Moore was
superb as usual. The .5-5, 155
sophomore puck stopper allowed
only two goals in the game while
picking up 41 saves.
Not to be neglected are the
second duo of penalty killing for-
wards Bob Falconer and Gary
Kardos. These two would replace

Fardig and Paris in about the
last 30 seconds of penalty time
and took over where Fardig and
Paris left off.
But without the disciplined,
time-consuming play of Fardig
and Paris the contest could well
have ended in a Badger rout.
As Farrell points out, "the key to
penalty killing is not to skate
very much, but to hold the posi-
tion and not to chase the puck.
A good penalty killer must cover
when a man breaks. Don and
Paul are very effective at pick-
ing up breaks."
THEIR ROOKIE coach cited
Fardig's ability to anticipate as
complementing Paris' quickness,
making it an excellent combina-
tion.
Michigan's method of killing
penalties can be likened to a
tight zone defense in basketball.
The forwards and defensemen
lay back, allowing long shots but
shutting off shots close to the
crease. This not only requires
well disciplined play on the part
of the forwards but puts a lot of
pressure on the goaltender to
stop those long shots. But be-
cause Moore is such a good goal-
tender and because the team is
relatively inexperienced, Farrell
puts his faith in this method as
opposed to a pressured "go-get-
'em" style that other teams such
as Michigan Tech employ.
IN ORDER TO help Moore aut
on long shots, the defensemen
try to clear out the zone in front
of the goal, and the forwards
allow an unobstructed shot so
Moore has full view of the puck.
The team tries to open up an
alley. when an opponent starts
to take a long shot from the goal
to the shooter to reduce chance
of a deflection which they figure

a ers
is the only way to beat Moore.
"It's just between him and me,"
remarked the small but confi-
dent netminder.
"We stay in a stationary box
and let them shoot from the
point," time killer Fardig ex-
plained. "We figure if Robbie
can see them he's going to stop
them.,,
With this kind of defense Paris
and Fardig have their hands full
picking up men breaking towards
the goal and must discipline
themselves not to commit them-
selves too far outside.
Also, they, as well as the de-
fensemen, must adjust to the
different types of powerplays the
opposition uses. Wisconsin, it
was noted, used three different
power plays. The Paris-Fardig
duo responded flawlessly to the
different attacks.
W i t h Michigan's aggressive
style of play penalties will con-
tinue to happen. When they do,
watch the Wolverine penalty kill-
ing team in action. Moore, who
was shaken up in Saturday
' night's game will be back in
action this weekend against Min-
nesota.
If the penalty killing continues
as well as it did in Madison the
Maize and Blue have little to
fear when they're short handed.
