Despite the fact that they played only a three-game schedule, the yearlings went undefeated beating both Michigan State and Ohio State prior to last night's contest. To Tom Lundstedt poured, in 26 points to lead' the offensive dis- play, while Rod ford added 23. Ford pulled down 13 rebounds, best for either team.

"Because right now I feel like I have all the an- swers." Agreement Anybody who saw the game would have inclined to agree. The junior Wolverines shot a strong 47 per cent (Toledo hit 40 per cents), out rebounded the visit- ors 56-32, were credited with only 12 turnover to 20 for Toledo, and never really gave them a winning chance. Moving to a steady four to six point advantage early in the first half, the freshmen held on, then suddenly went on a spree with three minutes remaining. Behind the rebounding of Ford and Lundstedt, and Ford's fade- away jumpers (he recorded 20 points in the first half), they led 52-41 at the intermission. The second half was simply more of the same. But Dan Fife and Mike Rafferty picked the scoring reins. Each finished with 17 points, Fife notching 14 in the final frame, and Rafferty 11. Better Defensively, "We really did a much better job on them defensively in the sec- ond half," commented Pomey. "We were picking them up faster, and switched off on the man-to-man more smoothly." Part of the victory must be at- tributed to the frosh bench, used reguarly throughout the first half. Toledo, led by Butch Lowe and Statve Shay, was forced to rely heavily on its starting five. Lowe and Shay, who scored 30 and 22 points respectively, received littlel aid from their teammates. Pomey pointed out the difficulty of "gettirig up" for the game.1 "When you only play three games in a season each contest isealmost an anti-climax after all the prac- tice."

And a door in the back which is like the tailgate of a conventional wagon. (That's the third, and do you need any more than that?) To look at it, you'd swear our Squareback is a station wagon. But it really isn't. Why? Well for one thing it doesn't cost like one, For another, it doesn't park like one. (The Square- back is only six inches longer than the bug. But has three times the storage capacity.) And since it's a Volkswagen you can be pretty sure it'll use about half as much gasoline as the overage wagon. (Our Squareback gets up to 27 miles per aallon.) Don't waste another precious minute working or worrying.
