F; 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 IBilboard f There will be a meeting for all basketball officials in the IM Building tonight at 7 p.m. Pay for officiating will be $2.50 an hour.

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 Tickets are still available for the Michigan - Michigan State basketball game this Saturday at 1:30 p.m. in the All Events Building.

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.
