Kansas City's George Brett makes an unsuccessful bid to break up a double play in last
night's game against Minnesota. The Twins' Bob Randall completed the throw just before
being dumped on second base. The Royals were just as unsuccessful in clinching the Amer-

Harriers race the clock
The Michigan cross country team will be competing in a
"postal" three mile run starting at 11:00 a.m. today at Ferry
Field.
A postal run is against the clock. The results of the top
seven runners are sent in by mail and the team with the lowest
time is the winner. Between 10-15 schools will compete in this
postal run.
There will be 15 runners leaving in the first group and be-
tween 20-25 in the second.
"Our goal is to place seven runners under 14 minutes and
have the rest finish under 15," said coach Ron Warhurst.
"The team goal is to place in the top three," he added.
Senior Greg Meyers and Junior Bill Donakowski, both All-
Americans, are expected to lead the field with times in the
13:30's.
John Cross, Doug Swewzey, Jack Sinclair, Steve Elliot, Dan
Hickkinen, and Mark Foster should roundout the remaining
top places.
The postal run is a warm-up for the Notre Dame Invitational
which will be held at South Bend next Friday. Thirty-two schools
will compete in this year's invitational. r "igan has won the last

Strong Hurons test spikers
The 1976 Michigan Women's Volleyball team takes the floor
this morning for their first home game of the young season,
squaring off against Eastern Michigan at 9:30 in the Central
Campus Recreation Building.
The spikers are currently sporting a 1-1 record, splitting
their opening tri-meet last Thursday, losing to Central Michi-
gan and defeating Western Michigan.
Volleyball Coach Sandy Vong rates the Hurons as one of the
tougher teams on this year's schedule and is hoping for a solid
performance from his young squad.
Looking ahead on the schedule, the spikers will be on the
road next week to meet Schoolcraft CC on October 8 before re-
turning home on the 12th to face Western Michigan.

Women netters triumph

By DON MacLACHLAN
Seven Big Ten teams will be seeking re-
venge today as the schools wrap up the in-
tersectional portion of their schedule, before
returning to conference wars next Saturday.
Iowa, Indiana, Illinois, Northwestern, Pur-
due, Wisconsin and Ohio State all fell victim
to today's opponents on the gridiron last fall.
The task will be no easier this year as the
Big Ten attempts to improve its non-conference
record- of 12-7-1. Last year the Big Ten fin-
ished a mediocre 14-14-2 against outside foes.

KALAMAZOO - If David hadj
left his slingshot in his office
that scene might have looked
similar to the Wolverine wom-
en's tennis team's 9-0 trounc-
ing of Western Michigan here
yesterday.
The Wolverines, now 3-0, have
won all 27 matches. This re-
quires a minimum of 54 sets as
each match is best of three.
The women have played 55 sets
thus far.
Freshwoman Kathy Karzen
led the way at number two
singles, winning her match 6-0,
6-0. "It's very difficult to beat
somebody 6-0," commented'
rookie coach John Atwood.
"Kathy concentrated very well,
she never let up."
NUMBER ONE singles player
Barbara Selden, who had been
pushed in her two previous out-
ings walked over her Bronco
opponent 6-0, 6-2.
"I concentrated a lot bet-
ter," said the nationally ranked
sophomore, "I put it all togeth-
er today, for a change."
Kalamazoo native Ann Ker-
cher playing in front of family
and friends methodically
marched to a 6-0, 6-1 triumph
at the third singles spot.
The only southpaw on the
team, Deborah Rentschler total-
ly dominated her match with
back to back 6-1 sets at fourth
singles.

might think t h e s e champion-
ships were tomorrow. Atwood
has stressed discipline and
hard work; a turnabout from
past seasons.
"IT'S BEEN tough on the
players who aren't new to the
program," says Atwood, "they
just have to adapt.
"Everyone wants to work
hard, but it's a tough thing to
actually do."
The women work out 2%/
hours Monday through Friday.
They do exercises, drills, play
against each other (probably
the toughest competition they've
received so far), do endurance
exercises (including an interest-
ing one called kamikaze) and
finish it off with a run of up to
two miles."
''I'm just asking them to
work hard," says the coach.
Looks like it's paying off too.

THIS WEEK'S SLATE is highlighted by the
nationally televised battle between fourth rank-
ed UCLA and eighth ranked Ohio State. Fans
in Columbus remember vividly last year's Rose
Bowl when the Bruins dumped the Bucks 23-10,
costing Ohio State a possible national cham-
pionship.
Both squads boast a devastating running at-
tack (UCLA number two, OSU number five
in the nation), but the Bruins have the edge
when going to the air. Bruin quarterback
e Jeff Dankworth has been very successful with
his aerial attack, whereas Buckeye counterpart
) Rod Gerald has totaled only 55 yards in 3
games via the air.
There should be quite an aerial display this
afternoon in East Lansing when Notre Dame
invades Michigan State. Irish signal caller Rick
Slager completed a school record 86 per cent

of his passes in last weeks triumph over Pur-
due.
Sophomore Ed Smith directs the Spartan air
attack which ranks fourth in the nation. The
Spartan defense, however, will have to tighten
up today in this traditional rivalry. State's
defensive unit has yielded an average of 30
points per game thus far.
TEXAS A&M JOURNEYS to Illinois in a
battle between two previously ranked teams
that were upset last week. The Aggies, led
by fullback George Woodward, and the pass-
ing combination of Dave Shipman to Willie
Beaty, rate them as slight favorites.
Minnesota, the only undefeated Big Ten
team aside from Michigan, takes to the road
for the first time this year and travels to
Washington. Quarterback Tony Dungy, a Michi-
gan native, will guide the Gophers (3-0) against
the Huskies (1-2) who are meeting for the first
time since the 1961 Rose Bowl, when Wash-
ington prevailed.
IOWA, FRESH OFF of its stunning upset of
Penn State, faces Pac-8 power Southern Cali-
fornia, led by the nation's leading ground gain-
er Ricky Bell. The Hawkeyes hope for a bet-
ter fate tonight than they had last fall, when
they fell 27-16.
In other games, Wisconsin (2-1) faces Kan-
sas (3-0), Miami of Ohio (0-4) journeys to
Purdue (1-2), Indiana battles North Carolina
State, and Northwestern hosts Arizona.
