\UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. ---
About all Michigan had salvaged
after the completion of the semi-
finals in the NCAA Wrestling
Championship was a little pride.
And not too much of that.
Dbwn in tenth place with 20
points after the results of yes-
terday's action, Michigan hangs
ten points 'behind fourth place
Michigan. State and 45 points
behind first place. Oklahoma.
Only Dave Porter and Pete Cor-
nell/are left in competition.
Porter, perhaps rued by two
previous losses to his nemesis.
Jeff Smith of the Spartan's, was
the only survivor of the semi-
finals, as he beat Smith; 7-0, in
the run-away heavyweight grudge
match. The two had met twice
previous this year, with Smith"
grabbing both the victories. De-
fending.champion Michigan State
*had its hopes for, a repeat crown
jolted by Porter, although Smith
could still grab a second place
berth.

seeded third, will face number(

fall at 4:29, which stretched his
pin streak to three.
The other representative from
Michigan in the NCAA semi-
finals, 167-pounder Cornell, was
pinned by Fresco State's Mike
Gallego with 4:59 gone in the
match. Gallego, first seeded in
the tournament, also beat Cor-
nell last year when the two faced
each other.
Cornell is still alive in the con-
solation finals, with a win in his
first match, and still has a chance
for third place.
The three other Michigan
wrestlers with a chance to wres-
tle-back - Geoff Henson at 137,
Steve Rubin at 123, and Fred
Stehman at 160 - all saw their
victors lose, putting them out of
competition.
Henson's previous opponent,
Martin Willingan of Hofstra, was
beaten by Michigan State's Dalej
Anderson, the 137 division de-'
fending champion. Oklahoma
State's lone finalist, Dwayne Kel-
ler dashed Rubin's hopes for a
wrestle-back with a win over Bill
DeSario, Rubin's quarterfinal con-
queror. And Dave Wiendl, Steh-
man's victor also lost, to leave
Michigan with only two conten-
ders.
Favored Oklahoma State faded
out of the picture as bitter rival
Oklahoma racked up a 65 point'
total, and placed four men in
the finals to Oklahoma State's
lone wrestler, Keller.
Iowa State, still within striking
distance, was second with 57
points and three finalists. With
Oklahoma State holding faraway
third at 36 points and MSU
fourth, Portland State rounds out*
the first five going into today's
finals.

SPORTS BULLETS:
Austrian Skiers Roll
0 SUN VALLEY, Idaho (A)-Paced by Gerhard Nenning,
who won the men's downhill, the Austrian ski team, moved into
a first-day lead yesterday in the three-day American Inter-
national team ski meet.
Canada's Nancy Greene walked away with the women's
downhill as she was almost a full three seconds ahead of her
nearest competitor.
Nenning, in winning the men's at 2:02.81, was 35 seconds
ahead of French skiing sensation Jean-Claude Killy.
The Austrian was jubiliant after the race and said he be-
heved the Austrian team could beat the french if the Austrian
girls did well.
Killy appeared morose and refused to talk to newsmen.
0 LOS ANGELES (A')-Guy Lewis of Houston was an-
nounced yesterday as winner of the United States Basketball
Writers award as coach-of-the-year.
Lewis' Cougars went through the season undefeated and
reached the NCAA championship round with a 31-0 record. Bob

tricio Rodriguez of Chile.
! ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. ( P)-Roger Maris, the man who
seven years ago, broke Babe Ruth's single season home run
record, intimated yesterday this would be his last season as a
ballplayer.
"I feel fine," said Maris, referring to his winter trouble
with Bell's Palsy. "But it gets tougher every year. I don't want
to say anything definite, but I really didn't think I would play
his year, just as I felt certain when I left the Yankees two years
ago that I'd retire."

The best-of-7 series resumes
tonight night in New York.
New York held a 10-point lead
