Sleep. In San Diego. We had been hanging around a public fishing wharf and we met a grizzled geezer who told us he knew of a church that' kept its doors open all night. He gave us directions and we went there and had a good rest. The pastor came in the next morning and didn't even wake us up. We were however, somewhat surprised as we made our exit to find that the same grizzled dillet- tante fisherman also worked as landscaper at the church. He had 'eglected to tell us that. But churches are cheap and they are quiet. If you want to go to California this spring, and you want to do it on the "go now, pay little" plan, take a sleeping bag. Myself and my three miserly room- mates of last year - Dick, Randy and Steve - spent almost four weeks last spring seeing the Golden West and we did it for just about K 00.00 apiece, of which about $40 was gas for the engine of our frring Valiant. Thus the trip itself cost just over $2 a day and we really didn't live badly. On the way out we stopped nights in dormitories at our nation's great, hospitable higher institutions of learning - Colorado College (Colo. Springs), The University of Colorado (Boulder), The Univer- sity of Utah (Salt Lake), and the University of Nevada (Reno), all for a grand total of $0. In San Francisco we "crashed" one night at the pad of a pair of somewhat meshuginah hippies (if a hippie can be meshuginah). The next day, however, one of them panhandled us for a 40-mile ride across the bridge to San Leandro because he wanted to have breakfast with his mother. We waited outside his house and were promptly accosted by several of San Lean- dro's finest, who knew the lad's reputation and searched us and our car, then admonished us for, hanging about with such - undesirables. Two or three other nights we ended up in Golden Gate Park which is on the ocean and gets cold, but otherwise is fairly comfortable. One morning a policeman on a horse rudely ruined the serenity of our "nature was my bedroom" philosophy by stomping noisily into our chosen cranny of the park. However, we were quite obviously non-violent and neither said cop nor sturdy steed appeared too upset. He warned us not to do it again, which meant that Randy, Dick and Steve were forced to spend their last night in SF in the local ' YMCA, while I slept in the car. . In Sacramento and San Jose, nepotism was the big kick. In Wie former, my uncle shared his comfortable middle class abode with us and also showed us the house of a less warm-hearted neigh- bor, Ronny Reagan. Randy's uncle, a seaweed salesman and one of the most unusual men I have met, provided the lodging in San Jose and then took a day off from the kelp factory to drive us in his Lincoln Continental down to Monterey Bay and Carmel-by-the- * Sea. (Relatives are excellent on trips. Their beds are clean and their food is excellent and inexpensive. However, children may be present. For serenity, churches and parks are better.) At times we were really living high off the bovine. In LA we slept at the Bel Air Sands Motel, one of the most luxurious estab- Ashments on the west coast. In December I had stayed at the Sands courtesy of the Michigan basketball team, and I had discovered a grassy plain overlooking it and all of LA, from which we could not be spotted. So we spent three or four various nice nights. I recom- mend the Sands' Plateau quite highly, though it is preferable to stay here in the winter when the sultry smog doesn't descend so low. The most traumatic resting place we found was Tijuana, Mexico. If you go across the border it might be judicious to ap- propriate a buck or two'for a cheap hotel, We didn't, trying the Tijuana beach instead. The problem with the Tijuana beach is that it is infested with giant black rats and this is somewhat unconducive to a good night's sleep. I had barely said my prayers when out from this cavernous piece of driftwood 15 yards away came a whole family of the friendly beasts. I was off the beach in fifteen seconds. Steve had flown from LA back to Ann Arbor, before we left for Mexico, but there was still only room for two of us in the car. (If you want to use your car to sleep in, don't drive a Valient.) Coins were flipped and I lost. I spent the night on the car roof which was bad for all three of us as the metal would cave in periodically. The next night we were still sufficiently upset by the whole thing and were driving back through southern California only a few miles from the border, so we decided to invest in a lonely-looking motel. After three weeks of sleeping in parks, on roofs and dormitory floors, the motel was appeciated by us all. The night following this we attempted to bust in at Northern Arizona University in Tucson or Flagstaff or someplace like that. We ran into trouble though, as the Resident Dean, a slimy, suspicious looking cur, found us lugging our gear into a lounge. All was saved however, when he found we were from Michigan. He was an Alum from the early forties and, from the eagerness with which he digested news of our region, I gathered that he hadn't been out of the desert since just about that time. Before we were done, he even gave us each a room and a bed. Just outside of Amarillo, Texas, we slept on the hard ground once again, and were restless in the night for fear of rattlesnakes. Morning found us all healthy, and we headed for St. Louis and Steve's house, where we could languor away the last days of our excursion.

But Monroe sank a one-hander, from 20 feet out and then drib- bled across the fpul lane for a three-pointer and a 106-99 lead with 3:45 to play.

Jerry Lucas connected on a lay- up with 21 seconds remaining in the overtime period to tie the score 126-126 but then New York called time out and played for the final shot. New York, which led much of the game, missed two attempts to endthe game in regulation time as Russell missed a 20-footer with four seconds to go and Willis Reed had a tip attempt roll off the rim. Three Wolverine gridders were picked by the pros in their annual draft. The first Michigan player to be chos- en, Rocky Rosema, went to the St. Louis Cardinals in the fifth round Tuesday. Yesterday, New Orleans se- lected Ray Phillips in the seventh rounds, while Dave Porter was picked by the Cleveland Browns in round 10. Yary of Southern California Tuesday as the No. 1 pick of all the collegians, came up with Bob Goodridge,aVanderbilt flanker, and Len Snow, highly-regarded Georgia Tech running back. Seventh Goodie Goodridge, who led the nation's major college receivers with 79 catches for 1,114 yards. was taken in the sixth round and Snow in the seventh. Cincinnati, given special con- sideration as the latest expansion team, had 45 selections but traded a few of them away. The Bengals drafted first and last in each round, except the first, but spun off some of the rights in trades. Ron VanderKelen, the one-time Rose Bowl hero from Wisconsin who has served time as a backup man with the Minnesota Vikings,I was traded off to the Atlanta Fal- cons in return for a seventh round pick. The Vikings used the draft right to take Oscar Reed, a run-I ning back from Colorado State who barged for 910 yards and seven touchdowns last season Vin One Vince Lombardi, who may be! making his last picks as coach of Green Bay, selected Walt Chad- wick, a running back from Ten- nessee: Andy Beath, a defensive back from Duke; Tom Owens, a guard from the University of Mis- souri at Rolla, and Bob Apisa, Michigan State's barefooted kick- er as his first four drafts on the final day. Lombardi has called a news conference for today in Green Bay where it is expected he will an- nounce his retirement as coach to concentrate on being the gen- eral manager of the Packers. It is! expected Phil Bengston, defensive coach, will be named Packer coach. None of the coaches or general * managers was present at the draft. All drafts were made by telephone through representatives at the selection meeting. -_ _ =_ _ :_: READ AND USE DAILY CLASSIFIED ADS I I U of M CIRCLE K presents: MARCH OF DIMES BENEFIT DANCE ot the 5th DIMENSION with the SOPHISTICATS WEST WIND DRIFT FRI., FEB. 2, 8:00-12:30 P.M. $1.50 Donation i i Join a Service Project at YPSILANTI STATE HOSPITAL Saturday, February 3 9:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. for information and application contact: PAT GREEN, 763-0739 BART BEAVIN, 668-6881 SH I RLEY LEW IS, 662-5529 SponsoreG by Associction of Religious Counselors i { { i i KEEP AHEAD OF YOUR HAIR! * NO WAITING t 7 BARBERS 0 OPEN 6 DAYS The Dascola Barbers near Michigan Theatre I V STILL ON SALE !
