6-3 Victory
By The Associated Press
NEW YORK - Rookie Derek
Sanderson fired two goals, one
while killing a penalty, helping
the Boston Bruins to a 6-3 vic-
tory over the New York Rangers
in a National Hockey League
game last night.
Vic Hadfield scored New York's
first two goals as the Rangers suf-
fered their second straight loss
after going eight games without
a setback.
Sanderson's second goal came
with only six seconds gone in the
third period. He had lost a face-
off, but pursued the puck into the
Ranger end, took it away fromI
defenseman Arnie Brown and
whipped it past goalie Ed Gia-
comin.
Sanderson, Bobby Orr and Tom-
my Wlliams scored third period
goals for the Bruins rapping it
up. Phil Goyette scored the
Rangers last goal.
MIKITA CLICKS
CHICAGO-Two goals by Stan
Mikita and one by Pit Martin
gave the Chicago Black Hawks a
3-2 victory over the Montreal
Canadiens last night.
The Canadiens opened the scor-
ing in the first minute of the
secoid period when Bobby Rous-
seau took the puck away from
Mikita during a face-off to the left
of the Chicago cage and dribbled{
it past goalie Denis DeJordy from
20 feet away.
Mikita got the goal back a few
minutes later. He was in front of
Montreal goalie Gump Worsley to
take Doug Mohn's pass from the
left corner and rammed the puck
into the cage.

The Eternal Cycle
Cubs Ara, Ivy and Michigan
Unless the plethora of modern phenonema such as computerized
citizens, push-button factories, massaging media and professionalized
amateurs perverts the tradition of athletic determinism, Michigan's
football fortunes will soon be on the rise again.
For that persistent nemesis which haunts all gridiron prognostic-
ators - the Low of Averages - still reigns supreme in the World of
Sports.
Never has the Law been more in evidence than during recent
sports history.
Witness, for example, the once impenetrable New York Yankee
baseball dynasty which crumbled several years ago.
Notice also the Cubs of Chicago who awoke from a prolonged
.hybernation last summer to whip their Wrigley Field onlookers into
unprecedented heights of hysteria.
Consider too the Indiana Hoosiers who are currently making
pigskin history by winning games. The Hoosiers boast a unique
heritage: the only all-time losing record in the Big Ten grid anals.
Perhaps a more intellectually gratifying example in the
college football sphere is the classic case of Notre Dame. Decades
of gridiron domination gave way to a dim period of losing dold-
rums (characterized by offensive impotence and defensive phil-
anthropy) which in turn was shattered by the Irish Resurrection
engineered by a man called Ara.
These various examples clearly indicate that we can depend
on the Law.
There is also an abundance of philosophical evidence which
supports the "rise and fall" theory. We need look no farther than
the aged, but time-proven adage of all good boxing devotees: 'He
who is down will rise again.' Recently popularized by Dr. Timothy
Leary, this ancient proverbial truism has provided inspiration for
many an underdog.
There is perhaps only one portion of the sports world to which
the Law cannot be said to apply. That of course is the completely
unpredictable Ivy League.
Inconsistently, and interchangeably: Harvard beats Yale,
Yale tops Princeton, Princeton nips Dartmouth, Dartmouth
creams Columbia, Columbia squashes Brown, and Brown obliter-
ates Penn.
All of this occurs without any apparent relevance to reality,
ability, percentages, or statistical tolerance. As a matter of fact,
the activity itself bears little resemblance to football as we
Midwesterners know it.
Nevertheless, the Law of Averages still governs the fate of teams
everywhere outside the Ivy League. And Michigan's downtrodden
Wolverines definitely fall within the reach of its tentacalistic in-
fluence.
Wolverine teams of the past have compiled an all-time won-lost
record of 500-183-30. In its first 80 years of gridiron action, Michigan
had but six losing seasons.
Then the Law entered the picture. In the last ten years alone,
the Blue have had five under .500 marks and 1967 appears destined
to be the sixth.
But provided that the current threats of smog, McLuanacy,
paper dresses, electric music, and potted GI's don't render the
venerable Law of Averages obsolete, Michigan's football fortunes
will soon be on the rise again.
At least within the next 70 years.

Even the ageless 'Pappa Bear,' George Halas, perseuctor, or
prosecutor, of George Allen and remesis of the Detroit Lions is
sending in his grid picks this week. Pappa took out a little time
the other day at a Bears' practice session to jot down his favorites
for this weekend's games.
Pappa knows that there's only two things in the world better
than pigskin - the Cubs and the Daily's Grid Picks. Besides, Pappa
loves Michigan Theater tickets and Cottage Inn Pizza, especially if
the newsreel devotes some of its prime time to his inconsistent Bears
and the pizza is sprinkled with Lion meat that he beat out of the
Packers industry of Green Bay.
Wonder what Pappa likes about the Fighting Illini?

Sure. Business is business.
The rules are tough
And the rewards often questionable.
It breeds materialism,
Strangles the little guy,
Kills the soul...
If you let it.
But did you ever think,
American Business feeds you
Three squares a day in a world
Where starvation is a too-common diet.
Provides you with warm clothes
And a lot more than shelter
Enriches your leisure hours with
Art, music, theater, literature
On a scale that is the despair
Of the 5-Year Planners
Of Cultural Revolutions. -
Business puts London in your living room
And you within 10 hours of Istanbul.
It can make a good living for you
And a better life for everyone ...
If you make it.
We hope you do.
