HILL DOUBTFUL STARTER:
..°
Cordova
returns
to
haunt defense
By JOHN NIEMEYER
Palo Alto, a small college
town situated in the ever-mod-
erate climes of the San Fran-
cisco Bay area, is an ideal lo-
cation for walking leisurely
along the beach and tossing a
football back and forth year
around. It's also the home of
the Stanford Cardinals.
Apparently the Sanford
football team has taken every
advantage of the opportune'
wveather, as they bring one of
the nation's most potent pass-
ing attacks into Michigan Sta-
dium tomorrow to test the
team rated first in the nation
by the Associated Press.
Stanfordhas had a string of
great passing teams, begin-
ning in '68-70, with Jim Plunk-
ett, now one of the great pass-
ers in professional football.
Following Plunkett was red-!
shirted Don Bunce who led.
Stanford to a Rose Bowl vic-
tory over Michigan in 1972, only
one season after they had been
"decimated" by the loss ofj
Plunkett.
Then along came Mike Bory-
la, now playing for the Phila-
delaphia Eagles, to lead the;
awesome Stanford air attack
for two seasons.
This year, the Cardinals are
lead by quarterback Mike Cor-
dova, a name that will conjure,

igan fans who recall how he

.Joining McColl on the line

The defense runs primarily a
four man front, but this sea-
son will attempt to give the op-
position several different looks
and keep them guessing.
Despite the graduation of two
starters, this year's regulars
Jeff Barton, Gordy Ceresino
and Ray Cardinalli, saw plenty
of game time in '75.
Practice makes perfect,
and when you practice against
the best passing team in the
country, you might be ex-
pected to develop a pretty
formidable pass defense.
That's exactly what Stanford
has done - the defensive sec-

Junior Ralph Phillips rounds
out the secondary. Thompson
has a slight knee sprain, how-
ever, and may see only limited
action.
Gone is kicker Mike Lang-
ford, who kicked the 36-yard
field goal with nine seconds re-
maining to tie Michigan last
year, but the Cardinals have
found an able replacement in
Mike Michel.
Michel kicked two goals last
week, one a 52-yarder, and will
give Stanford a scoring threat
any time they penetrate Wol-
verine territory.

There are scholarships available. 4-year, 3-year, or
2-year. -There's also a monthly allowance of $100.
And more important.. .you'll get the feel of the Air
Force and an indication of what's to come.

If you've been thinking of buy-
in a Hewlett-Packard H-P 21,
culator, which costs about $85
.. you might consider buying
a National Semiconductor Model
4640, which costs about $85
at your campus store.
Because the National Semi-
conductor calculator has all
the features and functions of the
H-P plus a dozen or so that the
H-P doesn't have.
Which, in a manner of speak-
ing, makes those functions free.
Things like permutations,
factorial x, sigma plus and minus

floating decimal display.
Who said you don't get some-
thing for nothing in this world?
