Tuesday, February 11, 1969 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page N Michigan challenges By DAVE HANNES It's do or die for each team as Michigan battles Illinois at the' Events Building tonight at 8:00. A defeat for the Wolverines would, wipe out their already dim hopes of a Big Ten title where Illinois must hand Michigan its third straight loss or fall as much as three games behind Purdue, t h e leagve leaders. oach Harv Schmidt's Illini, at one time ranked four nationally, sport an over-all record of 13-2 and are 4-2 in the conference. De- feats on the road to Purdue and Ohio State are the only blemishes on Illinois' fine mark. The key man on Schmidt's team is 6-8 forward Dave Scholz, who, is closing in on Don Freeman's school scoring mark. The Illinois coach describes Scholz as a "com- pletely unselfish team player. His passing has improved tremen- dously this season as shown by his ten assists against Iowa last Sa- turday." Possibly the most surprising player in the Big Ten this year has been the center for the Fight-! ing Illini, Greg Jackson. The 6-8 sophomore scored 36 points :. against Wisconsin recently, a great improvement over his per- formance against Purdue in which Jackson did not score from the field. Unlike Scholz, who has b e en ,making only one third of his field goal attempts, Jackson presently opt carries an excellent 55 per cent st accuracy mark. One weakness in or the play of the 254-pound center has been his lack of rebounding re despite his great size. Jackson is now averaging just six rebounds per game. COLLEGE CAGE: The other starting forward is Randy Crews, a 6-5 junior de- scribed by Schmidt as "a low scorer, but a fine ball handler and an excellent defensive player." The Illinois guards are Mike Price and Jodie Harrison, who combine for one of the best backcourt combinations in the conference. Price is a 6-3 junior from In- dianapolis who Schmidt feels is a strong contender to take All- Big Ten honors at his position. Harrison, who transferred to Il- linois from Alabama his sopho- more season, is a 6-3 senior with "great leadership" according to his coach. However, it is no secret t h a t Price and Harrison are only ade- quate ball-handling guards. Ear- lier this season Purdue used this fact plus a pressing defense to soundly whip the Illini 98-84. In discussing his team's Big Ten championship hopes, Schmidt said, "Our ineligibility because of the slush fund scandal hasn't hurt our desire to win but unless Ohio State beats Purdue this Tuesday it's all over for the rest of us." As for Michigan, the Illinois coach claims that "the most im- portant man for us to stop is Tomjanovich, of course, although we have a good deal of respect for both Stewart and Sullivan." Last year Sullivan scored t h e winning bucket against Illinois in a 69-67 victory at Champaign. Last 'Saturday Michigan's sen- ior forwards led the Wolverines in their unsuccessful comeback against Michigan State. Stewarta scored 27 points and pulled in 14 rebounds. However, like Sullivan. and Tomjanovich, the Steelton, Pa. native was forced to play a daily sports NIGHT EDITOR: BILL CUSUMANO loose defense for the last five minutes of the game since he was saddled with four fouls, as were the other two. Sullivan, who seems to have be- come the team sparkplug, scored 21 points and grabbed 13 re- bounds. He was especially effec- tive working one-on-one making his unorthodox one-handers from within ten feet of the basket. After Stewart and Sullivan, with the help of two Dan Fife steals, gave Michigan a 69-68 lead with 7:35 left in the game, Tom- janovich re-entered the g a m e to add to the Wolverine scoring punch. However, the Spartans, outscored Michigan 17-12 for the remainder of the battle to take an 86-82 win. A Dennis Stewart jump shot, which would have tied the score, was off target with 16 se- conds remaining. Immediately af- terwards State's Tom Lick tipped in a missed free throw to ice his team's victory. Michigan committeed 19 turn- overs and missed half of their 16 foul shots. A similar performance against the tenth-ranked Illini could result in almost certain de- feat. MICHIGAN'S BOB SULLIVAN (20) shows the form he uses on many of his unorthodox moves. Sullivan hit this shot in last year's victory over Illinois and also scored the game winning points. The 6-4 senior forward will be counted on heavily tonight to provide firepower once more against the highly ranking Fighting Illini as the Wolverines try for an upset. -Daily-Thomas R. C WOLVERINE KEN MAXEY (44) drives for the basket in la Saturday's loss to Michigan State. The Michigan captain hit f eight points against the Spartans and will have to show mo moves like this for the cagers to pull out a victory tonight.

LOS ANGELES - Lew Alcindor has suffered from migrane headaches for the past four years, UCLA basketball Coach John Wooden said yesterday. The 7-1% Bruin center missed practice sessions last week and played only 28 minutes in last Saturday nikht's 108-80 victory over Washington State. He scored 10 points. "Usually he'll lie down in a dark room with ice packs on his head," Wooden told the Southern Basketball Writers. "It usually goes away in half Aan hour. He was bothered by them in his sophomore season but they didn't bother him last year." Wooden said 'the headaches may be caused by the pressure of Alcindor's coming graduation and attempts \by both the National and American Basketball Association to sign him to a professional contract. % TORONTO - Toronto Maple Leaf officials say they will try to replace goal judge Eddie Mepham because they claim he erred in ruling that the puck did not completely cross Oakland's goal-line during a National Hockey League game here Saturday. Toronto lost the game 4-1 and was trailing by this score in the third period when Mepham ruled against a shot by Toronto's Floyd Smith. Manager-Cqach Punch Imlach said television playbacks of the shot showed it was in.
