Cagers
By BILL LEVIS
Wearing the worst looking uni-
forms since Tennessee invaded
Yost Field House with orange
phosphorescent attire two years
ago, Illinois defeated a beleagured
Michigan quintet 72-64 last night
in the Events Building.
The Illini's Blue wardrobe had
clashing orange numerals that
were incredibly large. The uni-
forms also seemed to bother the
Wolverines as they lost- their
eighth Big Ten game in 10 starts.
Michigan, down by as much as
seven points in the second half,
crept to within one point, 65-64
with two minutes left in the
game.. The Illini streaked for sev-
en straight points the rest of the
way as Rudy Tomjanovich was
called for two offensive goaltend-
ing violations.
After Price
After Mike Price's free throw
upped the score to 66-64, Michi-
gan came storming down the
court. Bob Sullivan, who led the
belated charge with eight points,
missed a shot from the right side.
Tomjanovich went up and tipped
it in. He was clearly above the
rim however, and was called for
goaltending.
The Illini added another free
throw and then Tomjanovich was
' called for his second goaltending
violation in less than a minute
and his third in the ball game.
This time the call was question-
able but the Wolverines had been
drained of their fight by the de-
cision.
Illinois started to pull away.
Price, who hadn't hit a bucket
all night, added insult to injury,
sinking a jumper from the right
corner as the buzzer sounded.
Hellish
"Those two goaltending calls
were really hellish but I thought
they were right," said a relieved
Illinois coach Harv Schmidt after
the game.
"Tomjanovich was clearly on
top of the rim and the rules say
you can't be in that cylinder. Still,
they were really gutty caits by
the refs," added Schmidt
Michigan head coach Dave
Strack disagreed with the calls
but wouldn't blame the refs. "We
werejust not quite as sharp to-
night."
The Wolverines had trouble

BOB SULIVAN banks in another impossible shot from a typically
ridiculous angle. He didn't have much success last night as shown
by his scoring total-eight 'points. Nobody scored too many for
The game, which ended much
like Michigan's 99-92 loss to Ohio
State several Saturdays ago, in-
cluded 43 fouls, 25 in the first
half
The close calling was not the
rain probem for Strack's qu'u-
tet. however. "We turned over the
ball too many times, and we
didn't jam the backboard," be
ernphasized.
Hurting
"Illinois was hurting us going
over the top of our boys on their
shots.'
While the Illini only outre-
bounded the Wolverines by one,
they were hitting the boards when
it mattered most.
There was one bright spot in
the debacle for the Wolverines,
however. Sophomore guard Mark
Henry went in for starter Ken
Maxey, after the junior picked up
his third foul in the first half.
Henry sparked the Wolverines to
within two of the Illini at half
time, 33-31.
Down by Seven
The Wolverines were down by
seven, 27-20, with five minutes re-
maining but came back to tie the
Illini at 31-31 as Dennis Stewart
hit both free throws on a one and
one situation.;
But Illinois went into the dress-
ing room at half time with a two
point edge as Les Busboom
stormed down the court and put
in a layup while Michigan' looked
on helplessly at the other end of
the court.
Stewart led the Wolverines in
scoring with 19, swishing through
most of his two pointers from the
outside. Jim Pitts, who hit on four
straight free throws, finished the
game with 18.
Big Surprise
Pace, who went into the game
with a five point average, was the
biggest surprise for the Illini, hit-
ting for 17 points.
"He was beautiful," Schmidt
praised.
It was his first start this season.
Dave Scholz led Illinois with 18
points "but he didn't have one of
his better games. Tomjanovich
played a good game keeping him
away from the basket," conclud-
ed Schmidt.

Michigan yesterday.
getting untracked all night. Mich-
igan was so lethargic in the early
stages of the game that the only
sound that could be heard
throughout the building was that
of the ventilation system.
The silence of the crowd ap-
peared to put the Wolverines to
sleep. Playing against a deliberate
Illinois team that leads the Big
Ten in defense with a 64 points-
against average, Michigan was
only able to hit for 31 in the first
half.
Big Gun?I
And the Wolverine's big gun,
Tomjanovich, could only hit for
six points in the half and eight
in the game.
"(Randy) Crews did a fantas-
tic job on him," a joyful Schmidt
said after the game. "He has held
Rudy to 20 points in two ball
games."
Schmidt was particularly happy
with the win since the Wolverines
had handed his Fightin' Illini a
stunning 67-65 defeat at home.
"We were awful sloppy out
there but I don't care how we win
them on t'le read," he noted.
"We really needed that one. I,
was afraid that Michigan beating'
us at home screwed up our whole
season." Illinois, now 5-4 in the ;
conference, lost three straight be- '
fore last night's victory.
The game, which included a'
near fight between Dave McClei-
lan and the Illini's Denny Pace
late in the second half, was
marred by sloppy play by both
teams. There were 41 turnovers1
in all.
"I'd have to say that the turn-
overs were the whTole difference,"
moaned Strack. "We gave the ball
up 25 times to their 16. And you,
have to figure about a point per!
turnover."
The Wolverines turned the ball
over nine more times than the;
Illini and lost by eight.

Purdue Stomps Iowa

heavily on the shooting of sopho-

Mount scored 38 points, only two
