THE MICHIGAN DAILY TUESDA] Cagers Club Illini, 101-95 BIG TEN MEET THIS WEEKEND: Wolverine Gymnasts Must Stay at Peak I" in the second half, notched buckets to put Michigan ahead for good, 89-88. Six-Point Burst After trading two-pointers, the Wolverines, cool under pressure, added six consecutive markers to' ice the win. Illinois doggedly rallied one final time after Mannie Jack- son scored on a three-point play to close the gap to 97-93. But center Lovell Farris hooked one in with 45 seconds left and then Lee added Michigan's 100th and 101st points to round out the night's scoring. Tidwell's long - distance one- handed jump shot never worked better for the 6'4" sophomore who is apparently reaching his top form once again after recuperating slowly from a leg injury. He pump- ed in nine of 12 shots in the second half. Not as fortunate in shaking the effects of an injury has been play- making guard Terry Miller. By TOM WITECKI Michigan's undefeated gymnas- tic team faces a problem that all winning athletic teams must face at one time or another - that of a "letdown." With team performance and spirit at its season's height last Friday night, the gymnasts rose to down defending Big Ten and NCAA champion Illinois, 58-54. Big Prize at Stake Now at its peak, the team must remain there - for Friday and Saturday they will be competing against the Illini again, but this time with the Big Ten title at stake. But beating the Illini at Bloom- ington, site of the Conference meet, will be no easy trick, since the meet's scoring methods, which will give 11 points for first and then nine, eight and so on down the line, might give the powerful, defending champs an advantage. Illinois' dynamic duo of Abe Grossfeld and Don Tonry, which M. C. BURTON ... nears all-time record Former 'Rassler' Drives Taxi Now 'I was. I even have to tie my shoes in two of three falls. "If nothing else, wrestling sure poured in the money," continues1 the wax-mustached ex-gladiator.1 "I made more in one bout than I do hacking 12 hours a day for a week."

"If I thought I could beat the other guy, I'd give the crowd a good show before fin- ishing him off. "But the crowds, forgetting that wrestlers are humans, want to see blood," Wild Bill adds. "Some- day the guys will have to prac- tically kill each other before the fans. are satisfied. It's getting to that point already."

At the same time Michigan's gymnasts will be fighting the rest of the Big Ten field for the third, Mat Title Hopes .Dim By DAVE LYON It should be apparent to ob- servers of the Michigan wrestling scene that this year's team is in- consistent. One week the matmen perform well, the next week they're flat. They were sharp in the Indiana, Purdue, and Northwestern meets, relapsed against Illinois, rebound- ed against Iowa, and looked flat again against Minnesota. Over the last weekend, the Wolverines were sharp, and Coach Cliff Keen hopes they perform just as well at this' coming week- end's Big Ten affair in Iowa City. Title Chances Dissipate That is, what's left of them. The Wolverines' chances of winning the Big Ten title received a seri- ous blow Friday when Fred Olm sustained a fracture and torn ligaments in his left leg. Olm, needing only to avoid be- ing pinned to give Michigan a 14-12 victory over Michigan State, succeeded - in that intent until, with two minutes left, Tim Wood- in dropped his 225-1b. frame squarely on Olm's leg, and the in- jury forced Oli to default, giving State a tie. Faced With Decision What Keen will do to replace the sidelined junior heavyweight, one of the team's three veterans, will be decided during this final week of practice leading up to the Conference championships. He will probably go with Guy Curtis, sophomore heavyweight, who has been a reserve this sea- son, and has not wrestled com- petitively. Keen will probably not select 170-lb. Dennis Fitzgerald, ,who neatly disposed of Ohio State's 200-lb. Bill Sexton in Sat- urday's heavyweight match, 7-3. Sexton is one of the Big Ten's lighter men in the unlimited divi- sion, and if Fitzgerald competed at heavyweight in the Big Ten meet, he could be outweighed by 50 pounds or more. If Keen uses Curtis as expected, Fitzgerald will be left free to try to qualify at the 167-1b. slot. Dick Fronczak has held down that position for the last four meets, but has lost his last three bouts, two by lopsided scores. fourth, fifth, and sixth spots. However, if Wolverine performers Richard Montpetit, Nino Marion, Al Stall, Wolfgang Dozauer, Jim Haysett, and Barry Feinberg come through, the overall =Michi- gan point total could overcome that rolled up by the Ilini's firsts and seconds. Michigan's best chance for first place honors will come in the trampoline and tumbling events. Defending Big Ten champ Ed Cole will lead the Michigan tramp team, while Bill Skinner and Jimmy Brown should give the Wolverines a double threat for a first in tumbling.

The Spartans were led by John Green, the jumping-jack center: who collected a high of 28 points. Jim Stouffer had 19 points for MSU and Bob Anderegg collected 18. High man for the Badgers was sophomore Jim Biggs with , 22 points. Michigan State ran up a 13-0 lead as the game opened and nearly five minutes were gone be- fore Wisconsin managed its first basket. Michigan State's overall record now is 17-3, the first time the Spartans have topped 16 wins, a total collected during three previ- ous seasons. MINNEAPOLIS OP)--Ohio State survived Ron Johnson's 30-point scoring and charged from behind for a 68-66 Big Ten basketball victory over Minnesota last night. With a chance to tie the score with three seconds left, Minne- sota's Marlo Miller missed the first of two free throws and then tried to set up a rebound with his second foul shot. But the ball failed to hit the rim and possession went to Ohio State. Larry Siegfried scored 24 points for the Buckeyes.
