Thursday, September 4, 1980-13 Sports Department Telephpne: 347-2579 WoFtffomeffd Omit to Mu RlSlId ividliiedgjfioiid How Ludington stacks up is anyone's guess. "We know very little about them. People who know say they are bigger so they should be stronger," Aspenleiter said. The Orioles do return a veteran quarterback in Greg Castellani with a couple of strong ends in Jay Petters and Tom Anderson (both 6-3).

Indications are the ball will be in the air often. Any passing game will be complemented by the running of Ty Austin, considered a real speedster, while top line candidates are John Borashko and Doug Findling, two-way veterans from last year. Next Friday, September 12, the Northmen will host Cadillac in their home opener. Once again all Petoskey games will begin at 7:30 p.m. improving on last year's 2-7 mark.

Ludington finished 1979 at 4-5. "I'm confident. I think the kids are ready and we are anxious to get going." said the veteran mentor who is starting his 13th season here. "We have a good positive attitude and the kids seem willing to learn and improve." Last weekend the Northmen scrimmaged at Manistee and Aspenleiter was pleased by the showing. "We still have some things to work on but it (scrimmage) went well.

We were pleased." Captains for the Northmen this season are seniors Dave Schuch and Phil Simard. Schuch 160) top ground-gainer from last year, will open at one halfback while juniors Al Southwood 160) and Paul Fruge' (165) will go at halfback and fullback respectively. Calling signals will be sophomore Tom Nelson (150). Along the line Aspenletier plans to start junior Mark Gregory (185) and senior Chris Fought (185) at ends, tackles are seniors John Scott (190) and Dave Przybylski (190); guards, are seniors Bill Keiser (165) and Phil Simard (170) and senior Jim Parker (170) is the center. Another possible guard starter is junior Jim Haggerty 165) who will go at tackle on defense.

Aspenleiter was unsure of his defensive starters and planned to make final selections just prior to game time. The Northmen will be without, two players for the year as halfback Todd Mish (broken leg) and Ben Juday (broken ankle) both went down in early season workouts. BY JERRY ROSEVEAR Petoskey's gridders open the 1980 campaign, Friday, facing something of a mild hexTrying to win at Ludington Since the two schools renewed relations in 1974 the host Orioles have won the home game both times and hold a 3-2 edge in the series. There was no game in 1975. Last year Ludington broke through on visiting turf for the first time with a 8-7 victory here so, hopefully, it will be Petoskey's turn this time.

One thing for sure, the contest should be close if history prevails. In the five previous meetings four games were decided by a touchdown or less and the fifth by 11 points. Game time Friday is 7:30 p.m. Coach Barry Aspenleiter will take his charges south bent on 4. Grid Looks at CCL Anr mm i it m.

I did that in the ninth inning, too, but it probably helped me push the ball toward second base. If I hadn't let go, I would have hit the ball right to the second baseman." Chicago touched Detroit starter Dave Rozema for a run in the third inning on singles by Todd Cruz and Chet Lemon and a groundout by Mike Squires.

The Tigers tied the game in the fifth on Brookens' seventh homer of the season, but Chicago snapped a 1-1 deadlock with a pair of runs in the sixth on RBI singles by Wayne Nordhagen and Glenn Borgmann. Nordhagen boosted the White Sox lead to 4-1 when he led off the eighth with his 15th homer of the season. Aurelio Lopez, who pitched a scoreless ninth inning for Detroit, received credit for the victory, his 11th in 16 decisions. Both teams were idle today.

who was running for Dyer, to third. Farmer then uncorked the wild pitch, giving the Tigers their third straight win over the White Sox and 10th in 12 meetings with Chicago this season. "The pitch just got away from me. It was my fault," said Farmer, who has saved 24 games this season. "I think he was trying to overthrow," said Trammell.

"The pitch wasn't anywhere near the plate. Peters, who started the season as the last man on the Tigers' roster but won the centerfield job when the much heralded Kirk Gibson was injured, was fooled by the pitch he drilled for his single to deadlock the game. "I was looking for a fastball with two strikes on me, but I adjusted well when he threw me the curve," said Peters, who extended his hitting streak to 10 games. "I've had some trouble batting lefthanded lately," the switch hitting Peters said. "I've been letting go of the bat with my top Hoffman held the Tigers to three hits and one run through the first five innings, but he ran into trouble in the sixth when Trammell walked and John Wockenfuss doubled with one out.

Robinson breezed through the next two innings but ran into trouble in the ninth when singles by Wockenfuss and Cowens and a walk to Tom Brookens filled the bases with one out. Richard Wortham, 4-7, relieved Robinson and hit pinch hitter Champ Summers to force in a run and cut the White Sox lead to 4-2. Pinch hitter Duffy Dyer bounced into a fielders' choice, scoring another run, and chasing Wortham from the mound. LaRussa summoned his relief ace, Farmer, and Ricky Peters greeted Farmer with his third hit of the game, a line single to right that plated Brookens with the tying run and sent Stegman, DETROIT (UPI) At 34, Chicago's Tony LaRussa is the youngest manager in major league baseball.

But a few more games like Wednesday night could make the Chicago skipper old before his time. LaRussa used three relief pitchers in the ninth inning in a futile attempt to get the third out but they were all found wanting as the Tigers erupted for four runs and a 5-4 victory. Pinch runner Dave Stegman scored the winning run when Ed Farmer's first pitch to Alan Trammell was wide and into the dirt for a wild pitch. "I thought our chances of winning this one were zero," said Tiger manager Sparky Anderson. "Their pitcher (Dewey Robinson) was throwing well and we weren't hitting the ball.

This goes to show you never have a lock on it until you get that last out." For a while, it looked like LaRussa 's strategy of giving lefthander Guy Hoffman his first major league start after 40 relief appearances might pay off. ran Alpena Gridder Struck by Car Dies Buy a NEW 1980 PINTO for I a month!
