the
Bunyan is the nickname of the most re-
nowned gridjion prize in America -
The Paul Bunyan-Governor of Michi-
gan Trophy.
THE TROPHY consists of a four-foot
wooden statue of Paul (a legendary
northern woods lumberjack, for you
who were neglected as children)
astride an axe, mounted on a five-foot
stand. An "S" flag is on one side and an1
"M" flag on the other.
Governor G. Mennen "Soapy" Wil-
Hams first put the Bunyan into circula-
tion in 1953, and the Spartans won it
with a 14-6 victory. Well, that sure
made Michigan Coach Benny Ooster-
baan mad, and the next year Michigan
won it back, 33-7.
From that point on, most experts
credit the Bunyan with making the
Michigan-Michigan State rivalry
everything it is today, with the Spar-
tans toeing a 13-11 Bunyan competition
lead.
The struggle for the Bunyan is
fraught with emotion. Just ask any
Michigan senior what it means to de-
fend the Bunyan for the fourth straight
year. Unfortunately, none 'were avail-
able for comment.
Or ask any Spartan senior how it feels
never to have seen the Bunyan in a tro-
phy case at Jenison Fieldhouse. There
just aren't words to describe it.
EVEN THE NORMA LLY cal-
loused Schembechler is not ob-
livious to the importance of a Bunyan.
Rumor has it that Bo gave a fiery talk.
after Thursday's practice exhorting his
team to "Win one for the Bunyan." (It
must be said, however, that some of the
players thought it corny).
But when it comes right down to it, all
the pre-game hoopla isn't worth a thing.
The game is won on the field.
The Michigan secondary may bear
the brunt of the Spartan attack today as
Darryl Rogers teams rely heavily on
the pass. Quarterback Ed Smith went to
the air 42 times against Michigan last
year in a 42-10 loss. He tied a record for
the most passes attempted against any
Michigan team in a single game.
"A-lot of Big Ten teams aren't used to
defending the pass," said Smith earlier
in the year, "but they'd better get used
to it. We threw 42 times against Michi-
gan last year, and we'll probably throw
50 times this year."

THE LINEUPS
Maybe we'll
cure cancer
without your
help,
but don't bet
your life on it.
The~way it stands today,
one American out of four
will someday have cancer.
That means it will strike
some member in two out
oif three American families.
To change those statistics
we have to bring the
promise of research to
everyday reality. And to
expand- our detection
program and technicues.
And that takes money. Lots
of money. Money we won't
have-unlessyouhelp us.
The American Cancer
Society will never give up
the fight..Maybe we'll.
Sfind the answers even
without your help .
But donit bet your
life on it.

SMITH SAT OUT the second half of
last week's Notre Dame game with a
bruised shoulder, but is fully recovered
to start today.
Michigan has spent extra time
working on pass defense in practice this
week. "We've been concentrating not
only on the secondary but on the pass
rush, since they work hand in hand,"
said Michigan wolfman Dwight Hicks.
"We know we can't stop every pass,
but we don't plan to be burned tio of-
ten."
While the passing game is in the lime-
light, the Wolverines are not overlook-
ing the Spartans' running attack. Be-
fore the season,'the MSU ground game
was much maligned due to the loss of
several starteris, including tailback
Richie Baes.
The combination of Leroy McGee and
Jim Earley has proved effective
though, and Schembechler thinks
State's ground game has improved.
"The tailback (McGee) has much more
speed," he said. "They're actually a
better running team than they were a
year ago."
MICHIGAN HAS GIVEN up an aver-
age of only seven points against four op-
ponents, while scoring an average of 28.
It is conceivable that State will have to
score several times to stay in the game.
Add the fact that rain is.predicted,
which would favor Michigan's ground
attack. State throws 32 times a game,
Michigan 12.
Senior Max Richardson will start at
wingback today, but Ralph Clayton
should see considerable playing time.
Richardson is thought to be the better
blocker while Clayton can make the big
play.
Kickoff is at 1:30. The game can be
heard of WJR Radio 76 or on WUOM
(FM), 91.7.
