The squad was greeted with praise, treated with friendship, and made to feel right at home. But at 4:00, p.m. yesterday, it wasuall business. The Sooners, after their formal introductions to their Wolverine opponents, pro- ceeded to dispose methodically of seven of their opposite numbers, and by 5:30 the Michigan matmen found themselves at the short end of a 21-8 sctore., Last Saturday night, after the Wolverines' convincing defeat of Iowa, several members of the squad traveled to East Lansing to watch the Sooners eke out a win over Michigan State. "We had them well scouted, all right," de- clared assistant Michigan coach joRick Bay, "but there are some things that scouting just can't .help." It was obvious to yesterday's spectators what scouting couldn't help, and match coach Cliff Keen made it official: "We were just outconditioned." A look at the individual matches shows just how true this was. In five of the eight events contested, the man in Blue had the early lead on his Sooner counterpart, only to tire as his match ware on. As one press box observer noted, "They looked like the Michigan football *team out there today." The brightest spot in an other- wise disastrous afternoon came in the 130-pound class. Oklahoma's representative was David McGuire, last year's NCAA champ at that weight, and the Amateur Wrestling News' choice as Sophomore Wres- tler of 1967. Michigan countered with Lou Hudson, a talented new- comer in his own right. When Hudson came out on top by a 6-5 score, the crowd exploded. But that was the last time Mich- igan's supporters had anything to cheer about, as the meet score, 3-3 then, jumped up by units of three, all on Oklahoma's side, the rest of the way. The Wolverine fans were even cheated out of their customary sight of a Dave Porter victory at heavyweight, when the Sooners, with victory al- ready in hand, didn't bother to put anyone on the mats. Obscured in the shock of the overall score was the fact that there were no pins. In fact, as Keen summarized, "Every match was reasonably close. They weren't that much better, but at the end of nearly every match they had just a little more than us. Okla- homa, of course, faces some of the toughest competition possible, and it. makes all their boys just that much tougher in the rough meets." The Sooners do, in fact, have a fantastic schedule this year. Their first seven meets saw them away from the friendly confines of Stillwater, and five of these were against Top Ten squads. The Wolverines, of course, with their preseason number one rank- ing, were of prime concern to thle Sooner squad, and now this con- cern is history. The defeat yester- day may serve as an incentive to the Michigan squad, as Keen de- clared afterwards that "I hope the lessons we learned were enough to realy spur us on the rest of the season. "But right now," he concluded, "Oklahoma deserves that top posi- tion. 123 lbs. -- Rice (0) dec. Rubin, 7-0.I 130 - Hudson (M) dec. Mc- Guire, 6-5. 137 lbs. - Keeley (0) dec.

Houston, a 71-69 winner over UCLA Saturday night, received 32 first-place votes and three for sec- ond while the Bruins drew only three for the top position and 32 for second in the ballotting by a national panel of 35 sports writers and broadcasters. Thus, on a basis of 10 points for a first-place vote, 9 for second, the Cougars had 347 points, to UCLA's 318. Houston is unbeaten in 17 games. First Since Start The Bruins headed last season's final poll and had led each week since the start of the 1967-68 cam- paign. New Mexico and St. Bonaven- ture, two other undefeated teams, gained ground. They moved up be- hind third-ranked North Carolina. The Tar Heels were idle- last week, their record holding at 11-1. New Mexico advanced from sixth to fourth after defeating Utah 72- 66 and Wyoming 81-72, increasing its mark to 16-0. St. Bonaventure, 13-0, including last week's victory over Canisius, climbed from sev- enth to fifth. Tennessee Drops Tennessee, which split two games with Florida, dropped from fourth to sixth. Vanderbilt a 74- 65 winner over Auburn for a 12-3 record, moved from ninth to sev- enth while Columbia also advanced two positions, from 10th to eighth. The Lions, 11-3, beat Cornell in their only start last week. Kentucky fell one place to ninth BULLETIN NEW YORK - The Los An- geles Lakers were awarded De- troit's No. 1 choice in the Nation- al Basketball Association's 1968 collegiate draft by an NBA ar- bitration committee yesterday in the continuing Rudy LaRusso case. The arbitration committee had given the Pistons Los Angeles' No. 1 choice in the 1967 draft after Larusso had refused to re- port to Detroit following his trade by the Lakers. after losing to Auburn, 74-73, and Utah, . which lost twice, slipped from fifth place all the way to 10th. Houston plays only once this week against Lamar Tech, a small- college team, Saturday night. UCLA faces Holy Cross Friday night and Boston College Saturday night, both times in Madison Square Garden.

By The Associated Press i NEW YORK - A statement by some of America's top track stars that if any of them were declared ineligible for the Oly- mpics all of them would stay out of the Games has drawn guarded comment from the Amateur Ath- letic Union. A statement issued in Chicago Sunday, and subscribed to by such stars as Jim Ryun, Ralph Boston and Gerry Lindgreen, said, 'if any of our number is disqualified because of his or her competing in a meet of their choice, we will consider ourselves to be in the same status." Yesterday, Col. Donald Hull, ex- ecutive director of the AAU, said "We regreat that some of our fine Olympic athletes have taken this action." The AAU has warned that any athletes competing in the U.S. Track and Field Federation meet. in New York Feb. 9 would be ineligible for Olympic competion. The meet has no AUU sanction and the presence of some non-col- legians require one, the AAUhas said. * * * NBA Expands NEW YORK - The National' Basketball Association, a n i n e- team league just two years, mush- roomed to 14 teams for the 1968- 69 season yesterday by awarding franchises to Milwaukee, Wis., and Phoenix, Ariz. The addition of two franchises was another part of the timetable, announced last year, that would bulge the NBA to 18 teams for the 1970-71 season. If that time- table is followed, two more teams would be added next year and another two the year after that. AAU The new franchises cost their owners $2 million each, an in- crease over the $1.75 million it cost for San Diego, Cailf., and Seattle, Wash., to join the league this season. The $2 million is equal to the amount it cost each of the six new new teams in the National Hockey League. That price; of course, is far below the estimated $8.5 million it cost New Orleans, La., to join the National Football League and Cincinnati, the American Football League. has additi Also, mak HELP SAVE THE GREAT LAKES on WANTED for New Federal-State Agency Highly Qualified Water Resource Planners- Salary Open Stenographers, Secretaries, Executive Secreta ries-$6500 to $1 1,500 Excellent Retirement and Fringe Benefits Call or Write: Great Lakes Basin Commission 2200 North Campus Boulevard THE YO Ann Abor-313-753-350 i I I Ronal data on Youngstown steel. e an appointment to see Mr.George.Millman for your 1800-second interview. ngstown Jsteel, UNGSTOWN SHEET AND TUBE COMPANY AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER NHL Standings i NBA Standings Eastern Division 1 East Division W L T Pts GF Boston . 24 14 6 54 167 Toronto 22 14 8 52 131 Chicago 20 13 12 52 132 Montreal 21 14 9 51 130 New York 20 15 8 48 128 Detroit 17 20 7 41 146 West Division Phiiadelphia 20 16 7 47 112 L .A .18 22 4 40 107 Pittsburgh 16 22 7 39 114 Minnesota 15 19 9 39 103 St. Paul 15 21 7 37 87 Oakland 9 27 10 28 89 Yesterday's Results No games scheduled.
