SU prices
ticket supp
By RICH LERNER
Not more than five minutes after Mike
Lantry's last second field goal attempt had
sailed astray to end last year's Michigan-
Ohio State football game, talk turned from
the game that had just been played, to
this year's meeting of the two teams,
slated for a week from this Saturday.
Interest is so high In the annual war that
tickets fetch astronomical prices-for a
game one can watch at home on television
no less. .
Rumors of tickets being sold for $125
apiece circulate freely. Radio station
WUOM auctioned off one of its allotted
press box seats for $610, with the pro-
ceeds going to the non-profit station's
coffers.
PRESENTLY PRICES for endzone seats
average about $25 in Ann Arbor but one
Lakeside, Ohio native pointed out, "they're
a lot cheaper here than in Columbus.
"I found four for $145," he said, almost
gloating.
An Ohio State student confirmed the
higher prices south of the border. "You
don't see many tickets for sale, but those
you do see are going for $75 apiece."
THE SCRAMBLE FOR the valuable
ducats begins months before the game.
No sooner had one student finished his last
exam at the end of April, when he began
an all-night vigil at the doors of the
Athletic Ticket Office in order to obtain
the first of the $7 tickets available to the
general public for his parents. Despite
being first in line, the Athletic Depart-
ment refunded his money last month.
Why are people willing to pay outrageous
amounts of money to see a game that's
on television?
"I don't think they're worth it," said
one buyer. '"But my father needs them for
his business."
WHY DO OTHERS turn down veritable
windfalls to see the game in person rather
than selling their ticket and watching on
the tube, replete with instant replay?
"The last OSU game was worth a lot
more in entertainment," said one student
fan. "I usually don't take my binoculars
to the game, but this time I'm gonna
take them, and zero in on Woody (Hayes)
as the clock runs out and he's on the
losing end. I want to see the expression

Hubbard is a team-oriented

everything as well as I can.
If we can win a few games, it
will be all right."

Orr thought Green has ad-
justed well so far:e"'He knows
what we want, and he under-
stands how hard it is now. It's
a lot different than junior col-
lege-you can't go out and beat
those teams by 40 points any-

"Green's working hard,"
Orr continued. "He'll be a
very, very exciting player.
He's an unselfish player; he
passes the ball around very
well. He has extreme quick-
ness-boy, just unbelievable
quickness. He has all the po-
tential in the world."

The key to Michigan's success
in the early going will he the
degree to which the new players
can adjust to the new situation.
"We have a tough sched-
ule," said Frieder. "Ours and
Indiana's are the toughest
non-conference schedules in
the country. It's very impor-
tant that we get off on the
right foot."
Phil Hubbard and Ricky
Green, foremost among the new
players, should figure heavily
in Michigan's showing this sea-
son. It is largely a question of
how well and how soon they can
