By BILL LEVIS
For the first time in a month
Michigan's basketball team has a
full week to prepare for a game
and head coach Dave Strack is
spending some of the time reflect-
ing on the season so far.
Even though this year's team
has a 4-6 record compared with
a respectable 6-4 mark at the
.same juncture last season, the
Wolverine mentor stated, "I'd
have to say this year's team is a
little more effective than last
year's."
Strack based part of this state-
ment on the fact that the 1966-67
version was only able to win two
l of its remaining 14 games.
If Only...
He doesn't foresee the same
fate for this year's team but he
noted, "We haven't been as ef-
ficient all the time as I would
like. We have had the tendency
to score inconsistently in spurts.
If we could only spurt all the
time..."
Strack's train of thought then
swung around to his players. Jim
Pitts was the first player to un-
dergo his scrutiny. "I've been very
happy with his play. Pitts has
been a steadier player than he
was last year and he has given
us good stability in the backcourt.
(Ken) Maxey has also steadied
down at guard along with giving
us quickness."
The mentor's monologue then
shifted to sophomore Rudy Tom-
janovich who is leading the Wol-
verines with a 19.6 scoring aver-
age and 145 rebounds. "Rudy is
giving us good strength under
backboards. He has a great fu-
ture at Michigan."
Defensive Troubles
The Wolverines have had more
than their shares of defensive
troubles, allowing the opposition
over 85 points per game but
Strack would not lay the blame
solely on the shoulders of his
super soph.
"We have been hurt inside de-
fensively but it's not all his fault.
Neither Tomjanovich nor (Den-
nis) Stewart have played under-I

neath before. We're having diffi-
culty in that.spot but we're im-
proving."
As far as moody Stewart is con-1
cerned, Strack voiced compassion
for his 6'7" center who has had
two horrendous games in a row
from the floor hitting only 25
per cent of his shots.
"Dennis has shot well at times
and the shots he's missing now are
not particularly bad ones. We
need him scoring in there, how-
ever, because we're not a team of
high percentage shooters," Strack
reported.
Scoring Problems
Michigan's other starter, junior
Bob Sullivan, also has had trouble
hitting the net recently. Still he
has impressed his coach so far.
"Bob has played, some very good
basketball games for us. You
couldn't ask for more from him
in some games."
If there is a forgotten man on
this year's team, it has to be Dave
McClellan who led the Big Ten in
field goal accuracy last year with
a .588 percentage. The shy junior
has spent most of the season sit-
ting quietly on the bench.
When asked why McClellan has
not seen more action, Strack said,
"he's been slow coming around
ever since he injured his ankle in
the season opener against Ken-
tucky.
Now that, he's rounding back
into shape, Strack said McClellan
will see more action in further
games. The coach also indicateda
that he soon could be back in the3
starting lineup for the first time
since last spring.
Another reserve who unlike Mc-
Clellan has seen plenty of action
this season is Rich Bloodworth.
The sophomore, who is the num-
ber one backup man at guard
behind Pitts and Maxey "is a good
player and g o o d percentage
shooter," asserted Strack. "He
lacks a little on defense how-
ever."
Drill for MSU
Right now, the Wolverine coach
is drilling his players for Satur-
day's encounter with Michigan
State. While he doesn't employ
any special techniques to spark
up the team for the intra-state

face-off, Strack said "I like to
think the team gets up for it be-
cause of the rivalry."
Michigan State had the best
defense in the Big Ten last season
and Strack expected a tight de-
fensive battle this time around.
"They have about the same team
as last year's co-champs except
for the loss of Mathew Aitch. The
Spartans have replaced him with
a pretty good junior college tran-
sfer in Harrison Stepter so we
expect to have our hands full."
As for the rest of the season
Strack felt that all of Michigan's
games would nailbiters. "The re-
maining games are not going to
be easy. We're going to have to
scratch and fight for everything.
It's going to be nerve-racking.
