LAFAYETTE - Purdue didn't
really have to play last night,
since the Boilermakers have al-
ready clinched the Big Ten bas-
ketball championship. Michigan
should have taken advantage oft
the situation and offered to have
the game cancelled. Instead, the
Wolverines showed aup and took
their worst beating of the year,
falling ignominiously, 116-87.
Purdue was led, as usual, by
All-American guard Rick Mount,
who poured in 45 points on a va-
riety of jump shots, drives, and
fast break lay-ups.

Purdue opened up a ten point leadI
with only seven minutes gone, the
issue was never in doubt.
By halftime Mount had 20
points and Purdue was up by a
16 point margin. Mount was joined
in the first half by sophomore for-
ward George Faerber who poured
in 16 points and pulled in seven
rebounds.
The whole Boilermakers team
had to make up for the absence
of their star forward and leading
rebounder, Herman Gilliam, who

The Boilermakers were helped,
though, by one of Michigan's
worst performances of the season.
The Wolverines hit only 37 per
cent for the game and committed
19 turnovers. Orr admitted, "After
the first Minnesota game, that
was our worst job of the year."
He continued, "We just never
could get going."
The Wolverines tried every pos-
sible combination to get back in
the contest in the second half,
but none of the Michigan sub-
stitutes could provide an effective
spark. Even Rudy Tomjanovich,
who finished with 26 points and
15 rebounds. had a poor game.

Forget Charlie Hickcox. Mike

Juan Bello. Turn one's thoughts to
the idea of girls' swimming. Not
in racing, but in the grace and
beauty swimming can produce.
The girls create intricate move-
ments, synchronize them, and with
a bit of spice for a catalyst-voila!
One has Michigan's synchronized
swim team-Michifish.
Twenty-five girls, coached by
Joyce Lindeman and Roberta Am-
mirati, comprise Michifish. They
spend the year preparing for their
annual show, March 27-29 this
year, and for the intercollegiate
Synchronized Swim Meet which is
this weekend at Central Michigan.
Fifteen teams, including Michi-
gan State and Indiana will take
part. Michigan is the defending
champion in the trio and team
competition and has single and
duet entries also. Six girls from
each team perform specified stunts
in the single competition.
This is the only meet Michifish
participates in since the others
are held after school is out.
The team is almost waterlogged
from practicing, is anxious to de-
fend their titles. Remember- them
this weekend while gazing at the
backyard pool and wanting to fill
it.

Beyer, who pulled down onlyI
one previous rebound all season,
entered the game for the first
time with less than 13 minutes
left, swiped the ball and passed it
off to Al Nuness, who sank a lay-
up and pulled Minnesota within
two points at 49-47.
John Johnson. who scored a
game high 33 points, pulled Iowa
back into the game at 64-63 with
1:30 to play but the Gophers
reeled off seven straight points-'

Jim Dutcher said, "With our

Higgins was reinstated in early
January and with the high scor-

TENANTS TAX CREDIT
Michigan law entitles tenants to claim 20% of their rent as
credit against state income tax. If you do not claim this credit,
your landlord may subtract this 20% of your rent from his tax
bill, but by law he is not entitled to that credit. Do not pay your
