His return will enable Schmidt to move co-captain Mike Price back to his normal position at guard.

The other guard position remains unsettled, with two juniors making strong bids. Schmidt will start either Bob Windmiller or Rick Howat against the Bulldogs. No preliminary game is scheduled.

Tuesday. Despite significant losses from last year's squad, Mini are hopeful of a contender's role in the tough Big Ten. Coach Harv Schmidt's crew experienced no trouble with a taller freshman quintet last Monday night, winning a 92-56 pre-season. exhibition. Now, the Illini are faced with a different problem, small, quick guards.

Butler's 5-8 Steve Norris and 5-10 Bill Shepherd both are considered outstanding players. Best news for Schmidt is return of forward and co-captain Randy Crews, who missed the frosh game with a sprained knee. Crews' absence was no- i I British Ford Anglia 015-E. I recently had the clutch cover assembly, clutch disc, and release bearing replaced. The car now runs fine except on initial takeoff.

Whenever I put the car in low or reverse, as I let out the clutch, I get a metal-to-metal rasping sound. This noise goes away once I let up on the pedal and the car is underway. The rest of the gears shift perfectly.

KitI ward. Possibly you've got the wrong throw-out bearing, or maybe it wasn't put in right. Have any readers had similar experiences? Dear Mike: In 1956, I bought a new Chevrolet and have used it only for city driving. The SIU football coach seeking two quarterbacks CARBONDALE, IU. -Southern Illinois University football coach Dick Towers returned home briefly after the season's final game before leaving this week for quarterback country.

"We don't need just one good quarterback. We need at least two to make that position competitive next year," commented Towers after the Salukia ended the season last Saturday with a 41-7 decision over Southwest Missouri State. The victory gave SIU a 5-5 record for 1969. First stop for Towers was Kansas and a look at a couple of junior college quarterbacks. "I'D also be searching for somebody who can catch the football," Towers said.

li; i there no reason why it shouldn't be just fine. Dear Mike: Not long ago you asked for reader suggestions regarding the removal of racing stripes from car hoods, trunks, etc. Rubber-cement thinner should do the trick. You can trickle this under the striping after lifting a tiny edge. Try it first in an inconspicuous spot to be sure it doesn't raise the paint.

Also realize that if the stripe has been stuck to the car for any length of time, it's possible that the sun has faded the nearby paint, so actually you'll never really remove the stripe. Anyway, good luck, Stuck. HELPFUL Dear Helpful: Thanks, Yet a other reader suggested something called Decal Remover, sold at dime stores. Dear Mike: Blue smoke coming out of the exhaust pipe doesn't necessarily mean bad rings or worn valve guides (you recently suspected valve guides in a reader's car). I have a 1961 Plymouth 318 that also smoked blue.

I found though, that the oil-return holes under my rocker covers were plugged. This made tiny amounts of oil drain down the valve stems into the exhaust system. I poked out these holes with a coat hanger, and the engine hasn't smoked since. How 'bout that? CURED Dear Cured: Good of you to write. Thanks.

GRANNY Dear Gran: There's no reason your Chevy should fall apart, exactly, but it might be a little stiff in the joints.
