e 1977 World Series pits the
er Brooklyn Bums against the
ex's Damn Yankees. Only 20

ig their first season in Los

times the World Series went to
eventh g'ame with these former
town rivals. The Yanks pre-
d six times;
e two teams have only faced
other once in baseball's show-
since they turned from cross
rivals to cross country stran-
In 1963, the Westerners swept
asterners in four games.

DODGER MANAGER Tom Lasor-
da named right hander Don Sutton
(14-8, 3.18) for tonight's opening
game in Yankee Stadium. New
York's Billy Martin will counter with
southpaw Don Gullett (14-4, 3.58).
Gullett was shelled by the Royals
in the Junior Circuit's championship
opener - four runs on four hits in two
innings. He later complained of a
sore shoulder, an injury that put him
on the disabled list for three weeks
earlier this season.
Martin said after the first playoff
game that Gullett would probably not
pitch for the rest of the year, but the
millionaire left-hander said he was
ready. One of Billy's reasons for
going with Gullett is his 14-5 lifetime
record against L.A. while:'he was
with Cincinnati.

Lefty Ron Guidry (16-7, 2.82), any ,
right-handers Mike Torrez (17-13,
3.88), Ed Figueroa (16-11, 3.52) and
Catfish Hunter (9-9, 4.71) are the
other Yankee starters. If Hunter isn't
ready, then Figueroa will probably
pitch on Wednesday. New York's
biggest worry is the health of their
starters. Both Figueroa (pulled side
muscle) and Torrez (slight tendon-
itis) have had recent ailments.
LASORDA apparently doesn't be-
lieve in the throw-the-lefties-against-
the-Yankees philosophy. Righty Burt
Hooton (12-7, 2.70) is expected to
pitch the second game. Tommy John
(20-7, 2.78), the lefty with the
reassembled arm will go in game
three at Dodger Stadium.
Southpaw reliever Sparky Lyle
makes the New York pitching woes
look somewhat brighter. He hurled
137 innings in relief for the Yanks this
year, and is capable of going.in every

Series game.
The Dodgers' top three relievers,
Charlie Hough, Elias Sosa and Mike
Garman, are all righties. This is a
disadvantage because of the numer-
ous Yankee southpaw swingers.
Receiving the nut from the hurlers
are Thurman Munson and Steve
Yeager. Munson, who always nits
well in pressure games, is the
toughest Yankee to pitch to when
runners are in scoring position.
Yeager is better defensively, and the
Dodgers will run on Munson.
THE DODGERS have four 30-plus
home run men: Steve Garvey, Reg-
gie Smith, Ron Cey and Dusty Baker.
The Yanks have two: Reggie Jack-
son and Graig Nettles.
Offensively, the keys are Garvey
for Los Angeles and Mickey Rivers
for New York. Garvey along with 33,
round trippers brought home 115
runs. "Mick the Quick" is the
catalyst to the Yankee attack. Bat-
ting lead-off he hit .326 with 12
homers, 69 RBI's and 22 stolen bases.
Opponents strive to erase Rivers,
because of his speed and importance
to the Yankee attack.
The Dodgers are 10-to-13 favorites
to win the Series and 5-to-6 favorites
in the first game. All Series games
will be televised by ABC with
Howard Cosell doing his first World
Series. Action begins tonight at 8
p.m.

Blue stickmen open;
Sailers catch wind
By GUNNAR E. BERG
Michigan's lacrosse club, champions of the University club division for
the last four years, will meet the City club champions, the Chicago lacrosse
team in a showdown of the midwestern powers, Oct. 29.
The Michigan team, under the direction of Bob DiGidvanni, has been
holding practices and scrimmages in preparation for the match against the
Chicago team. The last intersquad scrimmage will be Oct. 13 on the Tartan
turf at 7 p.m. Then Michigan will face Michigan State on Oct. 22.
DiGiovanni returned to coach the Michigan team four years ago and has
compiled a 37-10 mark and four consecutive University club titles since that
time.
MICHIFISH
The Michifish team is spending the entire fall semester and much of the
winter term preparing for the Michifish Water Show which will take place
the last week in March. Currently, 28 members under the direction of Kris
Vandenburg have started developing a theme for this year's show. They will
then decide on the scenery, build props, select the appropriate music and
,continue practicing for the event.
Mrs. Gus Stager, wife of Michigan's head swimming coach, was one of
the founders of the program. In 1948, the first show was performed by four
women in a pool that once was located in the Michigan Union.
SAILING
Bill Deuchler, en route to possible All-American status,] won the B
division of the Hoosier Classic, helping Michigan to a second place finish.
Notre Dame's first team won the classic while Michigan's number two team
earned second place honors. Michigan's first team sailed in Annapolis, Md.
In the race at Lake Lemon, Indiana, Deuchler and crew member-Diane
Burton completed while members Pete Smith and Tom Kinney raced in
Maryland.
Next weekend, October 15-16, Michigan will sail in the Davis Trophy
Classic. If they win that event, coupled with their victory in the Carry-Price K
classic, they are eligible to sail in New Orleans as part of the pre-game
festivities at the Sugar Bowl during Christmas time. They will also receive
free passes to the Cotton Bowl.

THE DEAN OF BEER,
SUGGESTS ALL STUDENTS IMPROVE THEIR
READING. WRITING. AND PUNTING.

Fellow Beer Persons, life is full of problems.
Fortunately, as your Dean of Beer, I am full of
answers. For example, many problems can be
avoided with good reading skills. Such as
"Danger. Wild Boar Ahead"
Many others can be avoided through good
writing skills. Such as "Dear Mom, Send Cash"
However, some problems require more.'
Some problems require special attetion
Such as "Good evening, Officer. Wlat can'j
I do for you?"
That is why, in addition to the fine arts
of reading and writing, I recommend you
master the fine art of punting. Preferably
with either foot. That is also why I am
offering $5.00 off the suggested retail
price of an official, intercollegiate-
quality WItoou football, with the
Schlitz emblem. So you can
practice. (Besides, no one would
be interested if I offered $5.00
off on lip balm.) Class
dismissed.

flIDDE IcKS 'i
Once upon a time in the real-life
world of make-believe, there lived
young maiden of unparaleled goo
ness and sweetness' of temper :who
went by the name of Sherrol Ifman.
It happened that the king's. son
gave a ball and invited all persons; of
fashion to it. Sherrol read the
invitation and thought it said "bog
Ball", Which is a game like basket-
ball except you shoot at a cardboard
box.
So Sherrol went to the ball and the
king's son conducted her to the most
honorable seat, and afterward toot
her out to dance with him. They were
having a gala time when suddenly
the clock struck twelve. Sherrol froze
and then rushed for the door, losin&
her left loafer as she ran.
"Come back!" cried the princ. "
don't even know your name!"
"But it's midnite!" cried Sherrol.
"I have to get my Gridde Picks in to
The Daily by midnite Friday, so I cqn
win a small two-item pizza frorn
PIZZA Bob's.
This week's winner in the Griddes
was Aaron Hochman, who prognosti-
