4 Page 10- The Michigan Daily - Friday, September 21, 1984 - The weekly Daily line The cream has risen to the top in the Daily Line. After two weeks Mike McGraw is sitting pretty with a 14-6 record. Everything is looking up these days for the senior economics major from Lincolnshire, Ill., as his beloved Cubbies are also on the verge of something special. And look who has taken over second place, Bo's sweetheart, Katie Black- well at 13-7. "I'm a woman competing against mere boys," is how Blackwell describes her success. New Yorker Levy: "There is no way a girl from Trenton, Mi., can consistently beat me." Paul Helgren is sinking fast at 9-11. Thanks. should be given to last week's guest, basketball coach Bill Frieder. Frieder went an even 5-5 and admit- La tedly had a great time. This week the Daily Line features special guest Barry Larkin, Michigan's first-team All-American shortstop. A junior from Cincinatti, Oh., Larkin has done it all in his first two seasons as a Wolverine. Last year he overcame an early season injury to lead the team in bat- ting with a .363 average. As a freshman Larkin batted .352. Larkin was a member of the 1984 United States Olympic team that won the silver medal in Los Angeles, playing second base as well as shortstop. Larkin was drafted in the second round of the June 1982 draft by the Cincinnati Reds but turned down a $100,000 contract, so he could play .for the Wolverines. 4 GRIDDE Well, it's been a week now since Prin- ce announced that he would be doing (count 'em - sevent) shows atJoe Louis Arena, and ever since then, all we've heard is Prince this and Prince that.

Sucky Gaggers at Daily Libels be By MIKE MCGRAW When the Big Ten entered the 1980's, its football teams became more pass oriented in an effort to create more balance within the conference. Wisconsin, Michigan's opponent tomorrow, was able to keep in tune with this trend thanks to a tall and speedy wide receiver from Newport News, Va., Al Toon. NOW WISCONSIN boasts one of the strongest offenses in the conference, one that exploded for four touchdowns in the fourth quarter to produce an ex- citing 35-34 victory at Missouri last Saturday. In that game, Toon caught nine passes for 117 yards and two final- period touchdowns to spur the comeback. Badger coach Dave{ McClain has known for a few years that jhaving a man as dangerous as Toon on thefield can ignite the entire offense. "IF YOU single cover Al, I don't think you can stop him," said McClain. "His main role is to score touchdowns, but with his ability, we can do a lot of things with him." And in his career at Madison, Toon has done a lot. In addition to catching 88 passes for 17 touchdowns, a Wisconsin record, Toon has rushed the ball on oc- casion and even threw a 40-yard TD pass against Michigan State in 1982. But he doesn't concern himself with how of- ten he touches the ball. "I would just like to be involved enough to win," said the 6-4, 195- pounder.

THE COACHES' formula of throwing the ball in Toon's direction worked to perfection against Missouri, but the man who did the tossing, quarterback Mike Howard, revealed that it wasn't necessarily planned that way. "Al's a fantastic receiver and it might seem that at times we are definitely trying to stick the ball in to Al," said Howard, who is in his first season as starter, replacing Randy Wright, now with the Green Bay Packers. "But we have three great receivers with Al, Thad McFadden, and Michael Jones. Last week it just worked out that Al got the most catches." What helps make Toon so hard for defensive backs to cover is his tremen- dous jumping ability. He is able to Shower of Gifts ' presents.

He also was in the middle of the major controversy at last spring's con- ference track meet. Toon, this time competing in the long jump, placed fourth. But the meet officials measured his jump in feet instead of meters, as. required for the team standings. WHEN TOON'S jump was converted into metric, he was awarded third best and the extra points given to Wisconsin as a result were enough to edge Indiana by one point. The Hoosiers had already driven back to Bloomington with .the trophy, but following an investigation in to the incident, the Badgers were named Big Ten Champions. If Toon is to equal that title in foot- ball, a win tomorrow would be a vital step. Bo Schembechler has already named Toon is the most dangerous receiver in the Big Ten. So, if the Wolverines are going to shut down the powerful Wisconsin offense, they must first catch Toon.
