SPARTANS DUMPED 23-21:,

Throwin
By PAUL CAMPBELL
Special td The Daily
EAST LANSING - It was a case of
an irresistable force meeting a
movable object.
The Force was Washington State
junior quarterback Jack Thompson,
who passed for two touchdowns and 364
yards as he led the Cougars to a 23-21
win over Michigan State in an intersec-
tional battle yesterday.

Samoan scorches State

The movable object was the Michigan
State defense, which leaked 533 yards of
total offense and has given up over 900
yards to their opponents in two games.
Thompson, who completed 21 of 30 for
his days work, was particularly awe-
some in the second half, leading the
Cougars on three long drives for TD's
and connecting on 12 of 14 passes for 190
yards.

The first two times the Cougars had
the ball after intermission, fumbles
spoiled substantial drives. But after a
Michigan State push stalled at the
Washington State 46 and the Spartans
were forced to punt, the "Throwin' Sa-
moan' led the Cougars 80 yards in only
eight plays.
First the junior signal caller spotted
his favorite target, Mike Levenseller,
for 14 over the middle. Then Brian
Kelly, who has caught 14 passes
already this year, shook his man and
grabbed one for 20 more. A fancy re-
verse fooled the Spartans and put the
ball inside the MSU 30. Two plays later,
Thompson spotted Kelly all alone in the
end zone for six and a 9-7 Cougar lead.
The point after by Paul Watson sailed
off to the right, but after the Cougars
overcame a third down interference
call to halt the Spartans, Thompson en-
gineered another long drive - this time
going 66 yards in nine plays before
throwing a perfect strike to Kelly in the
corner of the end zone on the tenth.
Michigan State bounced back quick-
ly, travelling 70 yards in half a dozen
snaps for a fourth quarter score which
cut the Spartan deficit to 16-14.
But Thompson had the Spartan
defense in the palm of his hand, and he
showed it as he led Washington State to
their clinching score on an 80-yard
march that took up almost five minutes
of precious time. He completed five
passes and used his backs to keep MSU

honest. Even a holding penalty couldn't
stop the drive, which was capped by a
three-yard jaunt by fullback Tali Ena.
Penalties were a problem for both
teams all day. The officials threw 21
flags and over 200 yards were marched
off against the two teams. Twofirst half
Washington State drives were aborted
by infractions, and despite 246 yards of
offense the Cougars could only manage
a 30-yardWatson field goal in the first
two quarters.

Marijuana Laws), Washington, DC 20037
smoke your next joint,
'esentative about it.
Here's how things stack up.
More than 50 Representatives support decriminalization, but it takes 56.
Leadership is not doing its job. Democratic leaders Joe Forbes (Oak Park)
and Tom Anderson (Southgate) oppose the bill despite publicly supporting
the issue during the 1976 elections*. Minority leader Dennis Cawthorne
(Muskegon) svyitched his vote.
So did Ralph Ostling (Roscommon) and Ray Kehres (Monroe). Kehres,
Stanley Powell (Ionia), and Dan Angel (Battle Creek) joined Forbes and
Anderson in reversing earlier stands. Wilbur Brotherton (Farmington) co-
sponsored the bill, then turned against it.
There were 7 Representatives absent when it lost by 6 votes.
r Governor Milliken called for reduced marijuana penalties, but when the
chips were down only 15 Republicans stayed with the bill.
DON'T YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO EXPECT
MORE THAN THIS?
Does your Representative know that decriminalization is endorsed by
people as diverse as Jimmy Carter and William F. Buckley? That the ABA,
ACLU, AMA, and NEA have called for reduced penalties? That HB 4603
could save Michigan taxpayers as much as $20 million a year in reduced law
enforcement costs?
Does your Representative know that you endorse it?
CALL, WRITE, OR WIRE YOUR SUPPORT
FOR HB 4603 TODAY
Find out how your Representative is voting. Citizen support will make
or break this bill. It's just as important to contact supporters as opponents,
but please don't call Perry Bullard, the bill's sponsor. Call your home town
