Apparently the Wildcat players felt the same way as they began to relentlessly score. Adams put Northwestern ahead with a jumper and then Reeves rammed home two straight buck- ets to bring the count to 62-57. Kelley then hit for four points, Reeves got two more and Michigan begantomsee its third Big Ten loss become more distinct. "They took the momentum from us with the technical," Michigan Coach Johnny Orr com- mented after the game. "They got fired up and we didn't." Strangely, Northwestern mentor Larry Glass didn't quite agree. "I sure didn't get fired up," was his remark. However his players, especially Reeves, gave ,signs that they did. Reeves had not played much this year and was only inserted because Glass felt, "Gamber was losing his poise and I wanted to cool him off." The substitute responded with a key nine point three rebound effort and left Michigan wishing he'd stayed on the bench.

MONTREAL (P) - Claude La- Rose's goal with less than three minutes to play earned the Na- tional Hockey League's West Di- vision All-Stars a 3-3 tie with the East Division Stars in the 22nd renewal of the annual classic last night. j The tie represented a moral vic- tory for the 2-year-old expansion West Division, which led through most of the game against the- power-laden East squad. The West fell behind in the fi- nal period when Detroit's Frank Mahovlich scored his second goal of the game and Bob Nevin of New York converted a rebound four minutes later.

As a sophomore at Michigan he had an outstanding season and was second in the Big Ten. Fore- cast as a comer in the sport, Meaden's second season on the varsity squad was nothing short of disappointing. One week ago, Meaden showed everyone at the Indiana meet that his career is rolling around to the top again this year. Scoring 332.90 points in the three-meter event, Meaden outcjassed runner-up Win Young, an Olympic medalist, by' nearly' 40 points. "I had beaten Young twice as a sophomore," Meaden commented, "and after last year's season, I was anxious to meet him again. It really was great." Meaden has been diving since his sophomore year at Hinsdale high school in Illinois. Under coach John Narcy (who is! the present diving coach at Michigan State); Meaden became an All- * American his last two years as well as the State Champ his senior year. While at Michigan, he has earned All-American three times. So much for history. Meaden has very definite attitudes, con- cerning his specialty. "Diving is fun-really great," he explained. "And the people asso- ciated with the sport are fun; I've found it very worthwhile being with these people. "But more importantly, diving helps you to get to know yourself better as( well as serving as a diversion from school. "They're two different worlds-- academics and sports - and each one works as sort of a stopgap to the other. It keeps you sane." Meaden is the first to admit that he's had excellent coaching "right from the start. Dick Kim- ball (Michigan's diving coach) is fantastic," he explained. "He's really made diving a pleasure. He's extremely demanding, but for every hour you put in, diving, he puts in an hour coaching. You Sullivan heih s Stewart jTomnjvich Fife Maxey not great, and I don't feel, to my Carter capabilities, but much better." Edrds Outside of the pool, Meaden is Bloodworth an engineering student and will Ford graduate next December. He has Fraunan "absolutely no idea" as to pnst- graduateplans. "I might eventu-F ally go into coaching, but only as a sideline - and that's very in- definite." Adams But there's nothing indefinite Davis about this swimming season in Kelley M'eaden's mind. "Prospects for this Gumber year are nothing but good. The Burke Indiana meet indicated the depth Cradan we have." Reeves Indiana's a good team to get an Bradof indication from. For the past eight Preston years, Doc Counsilman and his uJerdan tankers have reigned over the Big Ten as the proverbial champions and Michigan's number one foe. The 1966 season was the last time Michigan was victorious over Indiana in a dual meet. But this might be the year to upset that precedent. As Meaden pointed out. "For the past two years, our freshman team has beaten Indiana's fresh-, men at the Big Ten meets. We have a great deal of strength, as well as individual standouts." No one can deny the fact that Meaden's performance against In- diana was anything short of out- standing. Any diving score over 300 is excellent) Now, Meaden's only desire is to be consistent-es- pecially when Michigan meets In- diana at Bloomington Feb. 15. * "I think this year we're capable of beating them in their own pool," he said. "And I can't think of anything more appetizing. "They have the power-almost half their team are Olympians- but we have the strength too . and more importantly, the desire."

Here's someone who's shown con- fidence in you and helped you out in any way, besides diving." Meaden is becoming a tribute to this coaching. The long hours' of practice are certainly paying off. "Diving is a very intricate sport- the variables that go into each: dive, frombthe physical mechanics to the circumstances and even the condition of the pool can throw a dive off. "In practice," he continued, "it's a thinking process, and by the time you perform in a meet, it's become a trained reaction." Still, there's the nervousness total of 322 points when he de- Meaden feels this is perhaps the most adverse condition in any performance. And perhaps it's the explanation to his success last week.
