XCIV - No. 29 Copyright 1983, The Michigan Daily Ann Arbor, Michigan - Sunday, October 9, 1983 Fifteen Cents Sorry 'M' By LARRY MISHKIN Special to the Daily EAST LANSING - Last March, when national letters of intent were signed, Michigan State head coach George Perles ma'le a statement he would live to regret. "We knocked (Michigan's) socks off" said the first-year head coach, referring to his team's successful in- state recruiting drive. THOSE INFAMOUS words became a battle cry for the Wolverines and yesterday Michigan had the final say, crushing the Spartans 42-0 before 78,033 at Spartan Stadium. The win was Bo Schembechler's 100th Big Ten victory and his team won in typical Schembechler fashion, by com- bining an explosive offense with a stingy defense that recorded its first shutout against MSU since 1973, when Michigan won 31-0. Bo made the right decisions all day and gave Perles a rude awakening to both the realities of Big Ten football and the intrastate rivalry in which Michigan now holds a 50-21-5 edge. "I wasn't interested in (Perles') pan- ts, socks or anything else," said a hap- py Schembechler after the game. "I just wanted to win". AND WIN he did, as his Wolverines scored the first four times they owned the ball, jumping out to a 22-6 lead early in the second quarter. After winning the coin toss and elec- ting to exercise its option in the second half, Michigan kicked off to start the game and the gamble paid off as the Wolverine defense forced State to punt. Sixty-seven yards and seven plays later, Michigan was on the scoreboard with the touchdown coming ana. Steve Smith to Milt Carthens pass play that covered 23 yards. George: 2,MSU 0 For the tight end Carthens, who also caught a pass on the next drive, it was his first reception since the 1981 Indiana game and his first collegiate touch- down. "We were running a two tight end of- fense and I happened to be open on the back side," said an ecstatic Carthens. "I think ( the State defenders) thought I was going to block. I was the third receiver on the play. The linebacker to. the first tight end and I was open." CARTHENS, WHO is used only in the two tight end formation, said he had been disappointed about his lack of playing time, but he knew what to do with the ball once he caught it. "There was no one there," he said. "I was shocked and said to myself, 'I'm going to get across that line.' I didn't know when to stop." And neither did the Michigan offense as it marched down the field three more times in a row, scoring on a Bob Bergeron 38-yard field goal, a Dan Rice one-yard plunge and a Rick Rogers eight-yard jaunt around the right end. THE MICHIGAN defense, mean- while, had a field day of its own and kept the Spartan offense from getting on track. On one second-quarter State drive, the Spartans started on their own 21, but moved up five yards to the 26 on a pass interference penalty. Sophomore quarterback Clark Brown then com- pleted one of his few receptions of the day only to have it called back because of a holding penalty. On the next play Brown was sacked for a five-yard loss by Vince DeFelice and on third and 29 from its eight, State was called for having an ineligible receiver downfield and retreated half the. distance to the goal. Michigan went on to add another Bergeron field goal (41 yards) late in S. Smith ... breaks completion record the half and took a 25-0 lead into the locker room. The Spartans would have been wise to stay in their locker room as the Wolverines added 17 more points in the second half on Bergeron's third field goal of the day (23 yards), a Steve Smith three-yard touchdown run and a Ben Logue two-yard touchdown run. FOR THE FRESHMAN Logue, who gained 47 yards on only seven carries, the score was his first as a Wolverine and served warning to the rest of the league that Bo has plenty of talent at the tailback position for years to come. For the Spartans, the game showed State still has a long way to go before it can become a serious contender in the conference. State could manage just 111 yards of offense all day and ran for only See 'M', Page 8 rn - 'i 'A''mme ___________ Daily Photo by JEFF SCHRIER Michigan State quarterback Clark Brown gets an eyeful of Wolverine lineman Kevin Brooks just before getting sacked. Six teens are deadand Texas town asks why From the Associated Press PLANO, Texas - The streets of Plano are smooth and wide, the homes new and well-appointed, the people tanned and confident. The schools produce national scholars, the churches draw hundreds on Sunday mornings, the football team collects championship trophies. Plano promotes itself as "a warm and sunny paradise." The people are nice, too. Everyone says so. The kids' suicides began in February. SIX TEEN-AGERS are dead, and this Dallas suburb of 93,000, still an infant growing into Texas-sized boots, is angry over the national attention it has gotten and afraid it's being blamed for the drastic action of a few. Six weeks after the latest suicide, Plano worries that more suicides will follow. A family therapist is getting more calls from parents who think they see signs of depression in their children. More people from Plano are calling a crisis line in Dallas, reaching out to strangers. And, from the first suicide in February to the sixth in August, police have recorded 15 suicide attempts among youngsters. Plano wants to know: what happened in paradise? STRONG, STEADY growth has brought Plano more than its share of new kids, trying to distinguish them- selves in a community built by suc- cess. As high school sophomore Jana Dillon sees it: "Unless you want to be put down, you need to succeed at something."

According to their editors, all three aim to do the same thing: "Raise awareness" or "open discussion" of important campus issues. And they all are hoping for editorial contributions from the cam- pus community to accomplish their goals. The editors say their publications were formed not necessarily to oppose the Daily, but to offer alter- native perspectives to issues of significance. ON THE LEFT is MSA News, which made its fall debut last week. On the right is The Michigan Review, a spinoff of William Buckley's National Review, planning to begn its second year of campus publication later this term. And in the middle is Con- sider - a creation of Michael Brooks, director of the campus Hillel Foundation - which premieres tomorrow. Consider, which will print 15,000 free copies of its first issue, is "a non-partisan, non-profit issues- paper," according to its statement of purpose. The paper will be published weekly, and each edition will deal with a specific issue of campus, community, or national interest. After a debate is in- troduced, readers will be invited to respond to what was written in ensuing weeks. "Depending on the quantity and quality of responses," Consider's statement says, "a particular issue may be carried for two to three weeks." Scott Winleman, the publication's editor-in-chief, said that students do not feel they have-an outlet to express their opinions, and Consider will "let studen- ts express themselves openly." Tomorrow's first edition will deal with the issue of linking financial aid to draft registration. Law Prof. Douglas Kahn argues that the link can work, and Psychology Prof. Martin Gold, who is helping students who haven't registered find alternative sources of financial aid, will argue against the law. THE MICHIGAN REVIEWwill be oriented toward campus issues this year, according to Doug Mathieson, the new publisher. The Review, one of several conservative college publications that have appeared on campuses in recent years, last year avoided most of the controversy that has plagued several of its sister publications around the country. Mathieson said that the academic approach of the National Review, which the local edition tried to emulate, was not successful in attracting students. So the paper's scheduled eight editions this year will focus more on campus topics. Mathieson, who described the Review as "conser- vative, with hesitancy...there is no straight-line con- servative viewpoint," said that publications already on campus are not exposing all sides of the issues.
