Agase's Spoilermakers ...
... worry Schembechler
W HEN BO SCHEMBECHLER nervously talked about the
toughness of Northwestern, the scribes scoffed. When Glenn
E. reiterated upset possibilities before Indiana the writers yawn-
ed. And then when Bo discussed Minnesota's might the reporters
roared.
But yesterday, at the weekly press luncheon, when Bo said
that Purdue has a good team the assembled sports writers faith-
fully and soberly scribbled Bo's priceless thoughts.
"You got to play hard and tough every week," said Schem-
bechler. "They (Purdue) have really improved."
Suddenly, after both Ohio State and Michigan almost got
caught sleeping against Indiana and Minnesota respectively,
an upset of either Michigan or Ohio State prior to the season's
finale seems to be more than just a remote possibility.
So everybody listened when Schembechler announced how
good the lowly Boilermakers were. "Purdue is good," said Bo
about the 2-6 Riveters, "That's going to be a bell-ringer Satur-
day."
I always have doubts about the sincerity of Schembechlerj
when week after week he lauds every opponent, high or low, in
the same superlative terms.
But Bo would be a fool to describe opponents in any other
way. No team on the schedule, no matter how miserably they;
have performed, is without some chance of upset. And you can be
sure every team will be gunning for Ohio State and Michigan.
For the Big Ten also rans, a big upset can make the season.
Just look at the way Michigan State built up its conquest
of Ohio State last year. Football schedules pictured Levi
Jackson's game winning run, while all game tickets showed
the goalposts being pulled down after the startling 16-13 win.

CROSS COUNTRY CHAMPIONSHIP

Badgers

threaten Blue

By TOM DURANCEAU
The Big Ten holds its 40th
Cross Country Championship
this Saturday at Madison and
look out for the fireworks.
The Michigan Wolverines are
the defending champions but
Indiana, Wisconsin and Illinois
field tough squads.
Wisconsin's Badgers will not
be pressed to get "up" for this
meet, to be held on their home
course, the Odana Hills Golf
Course. The Badgers were fa-
vored to win the title last year,
but the young Wolverines grab-
bed it away from them.
"MICHIGAN'S going to be the
team to beat this year, but I
think this is going to be a very
balanced meet," said Badger
coachDan McClimon, "Illinois,
us and Indiana will also be bat-
tling for the title."
Wisconsin's number one run-
ner all year has been Mark
Johnson. He finished high in
the Big Ten's last year. The
Badgers' freshman sensation
from Midland, Michigan, Jeff
Randolph is one of the top
milers in the country in his age
group and has contributed a lot
to the Wisconsin harrier success
this year.
Other top runners for the
Badgers include Steve Lacey
and Jim Fleming.
INDIANA is another major
contender for the title. Lastj

year the Hoosiers were riddled
with injuries but are strong this
year. They have three top run-'
ners in Dean Reinke, Steve Hei-
denreich and Rikk Magley.
Reinke has run a 3:57 mile.
The Illinois harriers return
the conference's top individual
to this year's meet, defending
champion Craig Virgin. Virgin
is considered one of the top
seven individuals in the country
and the junior is highly favored
to take his third consecutive Big,
Ten individual title,
However it is generally con-
sidered that after Virgin the
Illini do not have the overall
team strength to win the meet.
Freshman Jim Eicken has been
the Illini's number two runner.
THE MIDDLE of the pack is'
seen to be Ohio State and Michi-
gan State. Both have outstand-
ing individuals but nott enough
team power to grab the title
from one of the top four.
Ohio State has classy riler
Tom Byers and outstanding dis-
tance man Robin Smith but
little else.
MichiganeState returnsuHerb
Lindsey, one of the top runners
in the country again this year.
Lindsey finished third last year

Bell extraordinary
"THAT FELLA could run fifteen yards in a phone booth." Bob'
Ufer may have been exaggerating slightly describing Gordon
Bell's touchdown run that saved the day against Minnesota. 1
But the 5-9, 178-pound tailback's accomplishments remain
exemplary if unnoticed and Ufer's comment seems an apt de-
scription of Bell's running style.
Nationally the senior has received only nominal recognition
for his performance this season, as publicity centers around
names like Archie Griffin, Joe Washington, and Ricky Bell.
Even at Michigan, Bell almost gets lost among the abun-
dance of quality ballcarriers the Wolverines have this year.
Fans impressed with the performances of fullback Rob Lytle
and wingback Jim Smith, and excited over the potential of
freshman Harlan Huckleby have forgotten the second lead-
ing rusher in Michigan history.
Bell surpassed Ed Shuttlesworth's and Ron Johnson's career
marks Saturday and only Billy Taylor with 3072 has run for
more Michigan yards. Bell now has galloped for 2488 yards.
"I think Bell is as good a back as I've seen anywhere,"
Schembechler remarked yesterday, "He certainly is the most
underpublicized back in the country."
Gordon Bell for Heisman? Why not.
But Bo also has as much to say about Bell the individual
as about Bell, the Big Ten's leading rusher.
"Even as exciting as he is, as good as he is, he's one of the
nicest kids you'd ever want to meet.
"He still listens to Trenton, his father. Trenton is still the
boss.
"During his freshman year he had an incomplete for one of
his courses - not that he's a bad student because he's not. Any-
way, after he got home Trenton called me up to ask how he
was doing.
"I said that he was doing all right - except that he'd gotten
an incomplete in one of his courses," Schembechler continued.
"Trenton said, 'He'll be back tomorrow to finish it up.'
"The next morning Gordon came into my office and said, 'I
wish you hadn't told him that'."
Bell was named Michigan's offensive champion of the week
for his 172 yards against the Gophers.
