Sophomore Carl Ward breaks into the clear against Air Force in Michigan's 24-7 victory at Michigan Statium on Sept. 29, 1964.
Archives: Michigan runs past Air Force in'64

By BILL BULLARD
Daily Sports Editor
On Sept. 29, 1964, the Michi-
gan football team opened its sea-
son at Michigan Stadium against
Air Force.'
It was the Wolverines' first
and only meeting with the Fal-
cons until this Saturday, when
the two teams face off again at
the Big House.
This is the Daily's game story
from Michigan's 24-7 victory on
that day in 1964:
Bump Elliott's Wolverines
used a combined arsenal of rush-
ing and passing yesterday to
overpower a spunky Air Force
squad which could move only
through the air in the season
opener for Michigan here yester-
day. The score was 24-7.
Quarterback Bob Timberlake
set the tone for the game as he
guided the Wolverines into the
end zone the first time they got
their hands on the ball. He also
engineered two 80-yard drives
culminating in touchdowns dur-
ing the second and third quar-
ters.
And to top off a very successful
afternoon for the senior signal-
caller who had been a doubtful
starter last week, Timberlake
booted a field goal from the Fal-
con 16-yard line just before the
half ended to give the Wolverines
a 17-7 halftime margin.
Rival Coach Ben Martin
whose team had defeated Wash-

ington 3-2 last Saturday, praised
the Wolverines afterwards for
posing a dangerous double-
threat. "The Wolverines have a
quarterback who can throw the
ball," he observed. "But when he
couldn't get rid of it, he kept the
ball and still gained yardage by
running."
At the same time, he lamented
the Air Force failure to win by a
massive air attack.
"We intended to pass quite a
bit, although not as much as we
actually did. We have players
who can throw and catch and we
expected that Michigan's defense
against passing would be weaker
than its running defense."
Complete 15 of 21
The Air Force completed 15 of
21 passes in the first half but only
eight of 19 in the second half as
the Michigan secondary tight-
ened up somewhat.
Michigan rolled up 311 yards
rushing and 91 yards passing.
Coach Bump Elliot commented
that he thought the whole team
played well for the first game of
the season.
"I was especially pleased
with the way our sophomores
came through," he added. Elliott
started sophs Carl Ward at right
halfback and Jim Detwiler at left
halfback. Detwiler was subbing
for junior John Rowser, out of
action with a leg injury.
Ward and Detwiler picked up
51 and 72 yards rushing, respec-
tively. But the team's rushing
leaders were Timberlake with

80 yards and senior fullback
Mel Anthony with 79 yards on
the ground. Sophomore fullback
Dave Fisher made it into the
game in the fourth quarter and
picked up 28 yards on six carries.
Elliott said, "I think the game
was in doubtuntil the third quar-
ter, when Timberlake on a third
down pass play ran to get the first
down by a yard."
The Wolverines had taken
over on their own 20-yard line
after Bart Holaday was wide
on a field goal from the Michi-
gan 16-yard line. The Wolverine
offense moved to the 45-yard line
before it seemingly stalled. But
on a third down and 30 yards to
go situation, Timberlake couldn't
find a receiver open and ran up
the middle of the field to the Air
Force 24-yard line, just making
the first downby a yard.
Anthony Gets First
Three plays later Anthony
gained a first down on the 14-yard
line on a fourth down and one
yard to go situation. Anthony
picked up four more yards on the
next play. Detwiler then started
to sweep around right end, cut
inside the end, and when hit by
opposing tacklers about the four-
yard line simply bulled his way
into the end zone.
This score and Timberlake's
conversion put Michigan on top
24-7. Both teams threatened
in the final quarter but neither
scored.
Michigan moved in for the
first score of the season after

the third play of the game when
Falcon halfback Paul Wargo
fumbled and senior left tackle
Arnie Simkus recovered on the
Air Force 35-yard line. It took the
Wolverines eight plays to chalk
up the seven points.
Second Touchdown.
Michigan's middle touchdown
came after a close call on defense.
Junior linebacker Tom Cecchini
had temporarily halted a Falcon
drive by recovering Wargo's fum-
ble on the Michigan 15-yard line.
But two plays later Timber-
lake passed to Henderson at the
28-yard line and Henderson, try-
ing to outflank a Falcon defender
and escape down the left side-
lines, fumbled the ball. It was
recovered by Lloyd Duncan on
the 15-yard line and the Falcons
were once again in a threatening
position.
Fullback Steve Amdor tried
to carry the ball through right
guard on the first play but was
nailed at the line of scrimmage
by junior linebacker Chuck Deh-
lin. On the next play, quarterback
Tim Murphy lofted a pass to
end Bill Landes but sophomore
defensive halfback Rich Volk
leaped in front of Landes to catch
the ball for a touchback.
Eight Plays
Michigan started from the
20-yard line and charged down
the 80 yards in only eight plays
for the touchdown. The big plays
of the series were a 34-yard run
around left end by Ward who had
taken Timberlake's pitchout and

a 25-yard Timberlake to Steve
Smith pass play. Anthony scored
from five yards out on the second
play of the second quarter.
Murphy completed four
passes and a pass inference pen-
alty put the bal on the Michigan
seven-yard line. But the Falcon
attack bogged down and on the
fourth down situation, Murphy
was ready to hold the ball for
Holaday's field goal attempt. But
Murphy picked up the ball, rolled
to his right and hit halfback Dick
Czarnota in the end zone for the
touchdown.
Detwiler Runback
Air Force kicked off the Michi-
gan and Detwiler ran it out of the
end zone to the 35-yard line of
the Wolverines. Timberlake led
the Wolverines down the field
with passes of 16 and ten yards
to junior end Craig Kirby and
his own 19-yard run. Then on
the six-yard line of the Falcons,
a personal foul was called on
Michigan and the attack stalled.
Timberlake attempted a field
goal but it was blocked by Amdor.
The Michigan signal-caller fell
on the ball at the 45-yard line but
got another chance to go for the
three-pointer when an offsides
penalty was called on Air Force.
This time Timberlake's attempt
was wide but the Falcons were
offside again.
The third time Timberlake
didn't miss. He split the uprights
from the 16-yard line, putting the
Wolverines on top, 17-7, at half-
time.

VOLLEYBALL
'M' heads to
Wisconsin
for Classic
By GREG GARNO
Daily SportsaEditor
The Michigan volleyball team's
season hasn't been considered
successful just because it has gone
undefeated while playing with
seven freshmen despite missing its
lone four-year player.
But rather Michigan has been
successful because the 23rd-
ranked Wolverines have gone 7-0
without using thesame starting
lineup twice.
"What it really says to me is that
we have a lot of depth," said Mich-
igan coach Mark Rosen about his
team's success. "We have a lot of
players that can fill different roles
and it'sbeen an interesting experi-
ence this year."
Certainly, Michigan's lineup
hasn't moved around by choice
this year, but it has managed to
make the mostofevery game. This
weekend, the Wolverines will take
their lineup to the Golden Eagle
Classic in Milwaukee, Wisc. for a
four-game tournament.
On Friday, the Wolverines take
on Wake Forest and Marquette -
a pair of teams Michigan carries
a 6-0 combined all-time record
against. The Wolverines con-
clude the tournament on Saturday
against first-time opponent East-
ern Illinois and No. 25 Northern
Iowa.
Michigan will miss senior right-
side hitter Claire McElheny, who
was absent from last weekend's
home tournamentwith anunspec-
ified injury. One of last year's lead-
ers in kills, McElheny'n absence
has forced junior outside hitter
Molly Toon to make the switch to
right-side hitter along with fresh-
man outside hitter Ally Davis.
Early-season games present
another challenge for Michigan;
which has limited time to prepare
for the competition. But the head
coach has14years of experience to
compensate for that.
"I think Marquette really tends
to run a very fast style of volley-
ball," Rosen said. "Their coach
likes to go really quick with his
tempo, so that puts some pressure
onus."
The Wolverines will counter
this tempo with the strong play of
junior outside hitter Lexi Erwin,
who is second in the Big Ten in
kills per set with 4.42. After she
was subbed out in Saturday's game
against Arkansas, Michigan strug-
gled to hold a lead. The Wolverines
take on a ranked team for the first
time this season in NorthernIowa.
The Panthers (4-2) will look to
senior outside hitter Amy Braun,
averaging 3.16 kills per set this
year, to overcome Michigan junior
middle blocker Jennifer Cross.
"Northern Iowa is a great vol-
leyball program," Rosen said.
"They've had a really strong tra-
dition and their kids know how
to play the game very well. They

don't make alot of errors and they
know how to putpressure onyou."
Michigan will also use Toon,
who is quietly surging to the top
of Mighigan's leaderboards. Toon
- named to the adidas/Michigan
Challenge first team on Saturday
- looks to carry the success from
her 12 kill performance against
Arkansas. After tallying 21 total
blocks last year, the junior already
has11 in her new role.
Expect sophomore setter Lexi
Dannemiller to also be a key factor,
after beingnamed the tournament
MVP on Saturday. Dannemiller
averages more than 11 assists per
set and has played in all 26 of the
Wolverines' sets.
Michigan's greatest advan-
tage may be in their chance to
scout opponents live, though. The
opportunity allows the Wolver-
ines to learn more about a team
they havey't played since 1992.
"We try and have them watch
the game from their position,"
Rosen said. "Who are you going
to be up against and what do you
have to do to be successful. I think
by the time we play them our play-
ers will have a lot of insight."
