SUNDAY, JANUARY 7, 1968 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE SEVEN SUNDAY, JANUARY 7,1968 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE SEVEN Behind Closed Doors MSU 1 n 471 BOB McFARLAND Even the multiversity has "air" problems these days. Not the same kind that plagues our giant cities, of course, but the multiversity's own brand of smog seems just as oppressive to my existence as the yellow clouds that obscure the noonday sun in New York and Los Angeles. I'm talking about the impersonal, mechanized air that pervades the atmosphere of our modern universities, which seem both larger than life and incompatible with it. Unfortunately, no one has come up with air purifiers that can solve this type of atmospheric difficulty. It just possibly could be that with size automatically comes impersonality. This develop- ment may be regrettable, but also unavoidable, and we might as well accept what is. In less fatalistic moments, I think there may be some hope for cleaning up the University's air, however. Per- haps, with some work and creativity, we can retain the personal elements that still exist in the academic atmosphere. When I look at my cherished field of extracurricular involvement, intercollegiate athletics, and find that even it has been affected by this dirty air, I must admit that a pessimistic pressure system rolls over my mental faculties. Is there no joy in Smogville? There are some athletic directors and other men in the field who are worried about the increasing estrangement of that amorphous mass called the student body and that professional machine called the athletic department. Most probably have never thought of this divorcement of the average student and athletics, which is not to say that they, the members of the athletic bureaucracy, should be account- able for this neglect. Given the present-day pressures of winning, the coaches have precious little time to do anything else but produce victories and scour the boondocks for new material. About the only way the average student becomes acquainted with a player is a chance and rare meeting in the classroom. And outside of Bump Elliott and Dave Strack, most people wouldn't recognize a member of the coaching staff when passing him on the street. Many wouldn't even recognize their names. Try to connect Bill Dodd, Dave Martin, Bill Murphy, and Dick Honig with their respective coaching assignments, for instance! Or Bert Katzenmeyer, Dick Kimball, and Moby Benedict. Why the impersonal trend in athletics has worried administrators and observers of the collegiate scene is because they fear a significant flagging of student interest in intercollegiate sports over the long run. Their arguments are countered by the obvious statement that professional sports in the United States such as basketball, baseball, and football are totally devoid of any relationship between spectator and athlete, outside of the typical spectator-athlete roles at a sporting event. And everyone knows how attendance is on the way up in the pro circuits. The analogy is weak in one respect, however. The pros have excellence on their side. By exhibiting that quality consistently, the professional leagues have an added attraction and advantage over the college brand of ball. The difference in ability is demonstrated year in and year out by football's college All-Star game, which has become an annual July farce. The inexorable march of progress in intercollegiate athletics has almost obliterated the contrast between professional and amateur sports, though. All except for the difference in playing ability, that is. To my mind, the impersonalization of the collegiate sports scene Is the single most damaging development in the area today. Com- pounding the problem is the tragic lack of recognition that this trend is dangerous at all. And once upon a time, or so I'm told, universities maintained athletic programs chiefly for the students' benefit. Granted, there's no turning back the clock. The days of the walk- on athlete are buried with the likes of Knute Rockne and Fielding H. Yost. Yet, the level of play has almost certainly risen in iter- 4 collegiate circles, no matter what else can be said. In the end, I must admit that I hold doubts about whether there has been a corresponding increase in the student body's enjoyment of THEIR intercollegiate program. The question is how to bring the average student back into the athletic scene. Does a university's athle- tic program have anything to offer the non-athlete besides enter- tainment? t Yes! A plethora of coaching expertise in many sports. And it could be exploited by a simple and relatively inexpensive program that would bring the student back to intercollegiate athletics and intercollegiate athletics back to the student. As mentioned earlier, the coaches have little time available for teaching duties, and when they do, their talents are directed mainly to physical education majors. It would seemingly be possible, though, for the varsity coaches and their staff to sponsor annual clinics in their respective sports which would be open to all students. The coaches might also include some of their athletes in the program. The number of frustrated high school athletes on this campus who didn't possess the ability for the big-time, but still pursue their chosen sport, is certainly large. Add to this group the other partici- pants of the intramural program, a service which involves more stu- dents than any other on this campus. Take those sedentary spectators, who might not take an active part in athletics, but would jump at the opportunity to meet the head football coach, and ask him questions. The combination of these varying segments would make up a signifi- cant proportion of the student body on this campus. The clinic could consist of many phses. A question-and- answer session could be conducted by the head coach, replying to general queries about both his own team and the nature of his sport on the collegiate level. He might pick out one segment of a sport, such as putting in golf, and give pointers to those attending. If his players also took part, they could fill the part of instructors with regard to individual problems. In team sports, coaches could provide some basic plays for the group which would be of special interest to athletic managers of + dormitories and fraternities. And the sports fan who hasn't heard Michigan offensive line coach Tony Mason speak on athletic motiva- tion has an experience in store for him. The proposal would take some time, effort, and money to im- plement. If intercollegiate athletics is really to benefit the student body in the multiversity, the coaching clinics would seem to be well worth this "trouble." On the practical side, revived student interest in their sports program would likely be a valuable product of the new rapport between the athletic department and student body. I don't know about you, but I can smell that fresh air already. By ELLIOTT BERRY Special To The Daily EAST LANSING - Fortunately for Michigan State hockey fans, the Spartan icers are better tech- nicians than the Spartan elec- tricians. The scoreboard and clock blew a fuse midway through the second period of last night's game and was out of commission for the re- mainder of the evening. Simul- taneously, Michigan State suffered a complete breakdown but came back to force an overtime and then win 4-3 on a breakaway goal by Lee Hathaway. At the 6.06 mark of the overtime period, Hathaway streaked in and intercepted a clearing pass and pulled goalie Jim Keough out of the net before sending it past the prone goaltender. Michigan was outscored 2-1 andI out-played badly until the elec- trical mishap forced a 40-minute intermission.

Only a standout performance by the sophomore netminder, who played in his first starting role, kept the Wolverines from winning in regulation time. Michigan tallied twice after the prolonged intermission to take a 3-2 lead, as Lee Martilla poked home a rebound of Bill Lord's slapshot and sophomore Don Deeks fired home a pass from Jerry Hartman. TheSpartans, however, took ad- vantage of two Wolverine penalties and forced the game into overtime when Nino Cristopholie flipped the puck into the net over three sprawled Michigan defenders for his second goal of the night. All evening long the Spartan line of Christopholie, Robert Fal- lat, and Charles Phillip forced the play to the Wolverines. Michigan State went flying at the opening faceoff as Fallat sent a pass to Phillips, who was standing alone in front of the net, and whipped it past Keough with only 18 seconds played. The Spartans kept the pressure on and forced the play into the Michigan zone continually during the first period. The Spartans kept the pressure on throughout the first half of the second period. At 11:35, how- ever, a minor brawl broke out which sent three Wolverines and three Spartans to the penalty box. It was then that the scoreboard and clock broke down and caused the 40-minute delay. Hoosiers Rip Gophers' 'T Open Title Defense (Continued from Page 1) The Spartans, playing man-for- man defense all the way, shot better from the field with 25 goals on 58 shots against Illinois' 24 for 56. Mike Price contributed 19 Illini points, while Michigan State was led by Steve Rymal with 18. , * * * Hoosier Heist BLOOMINGTON-Stone cold in the first half which ended with it trailing 31-28, Indiana shot into the front at the start of the second period and increased their margin steadily. Bill DeHeer scored 17 points and grabbed 18 rebounds in an individual dual with Tom Kondla, Minnesota's Big Ten scoring lead- er last season. Kondla had 16 points and 12 rebounds. Butch Joyner and Earl Schnei- der chipped in 16 points apiece for the winners. LeRoy Gardner had 14 and Al Nuness 12 for the Gophers. Buckeye Bust COLUMBUS-Bill Hosket scor- ed a career high 35 points as hot-shooting Ohio State crushed Purdue. The Buckeyes, playing before a capacity crowd of 13,497, fired a torrid 58 per cent in the first half in cruising to a 61-46 lead at intermission. The losing Boilermakers never could get closer than 13 in the second half as the Bucks con- tinued their assault on the basket with all five starters in double figures. Hosket, whose previous high was 33 against Minnesota two years ago, netted 15 baskets in 23 attempts and was five of eight from the free throw line. Rick Mount, Purdue's prize sophomore who leads the Big Ten in scoring, collecteds19 points to lead the Boilermakers. The 108 points were only three shy of the school record of 111 set by the Bucks in 1960 when Jerry Lucas was a sophomore. Wildcat Wipe-out EVANSTON-Northwestern, led by the balanced scoring provided of sophomores Don Adams and Dale Kelley, sped to a 30-20 half- time lead as Iowa ace Sam Wil- liams was held to six points. Williams came on strong in the second half with a 24-point spurt to grab scoring laurels with 30 points, but the Wildcats never re- linquished their lead. Iowa closed within three points at 50-47 with eight minutes to play but Adams hit on a basket and Kelley scored seven of North- Iwestern's next 11 points to put the Wildcats ahead comfortably. Adams led Northwestern with 21 points and Kelley finished with 17, getting 15 in the last half. Mike Weaver chipped in with 16. The key to Northwestern's tri- umph was control of the boards. The Wildcats outrebounded Iowa 36-22.
