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. trounces Michigan; 116-87 substantiated both of Orr's con- tentions early, as they jumped into: a 4-0 lead and built it up for the full 40 minutes of the game. Once 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 was incapacitated with a sprain- I.

Mount and the Boilermakers, daily sports NIGHT EDITOR: BILL DINNER filled in' admirably. 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. Tomjanovich managed to hit only one-third of his shots as his shoot- ing followed that of .his team- mates.

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.

The netters are currently on tour out west, getting ready for the Big Ten season and catching some rays in the process.

The Wolverines' only setbacks' were suffered by singles players SCORES t Pete Fishback and Mark Conti. Both players, however, hung in for three sets, losing 4-6, 6-4, 5-7 and 6-8, 6-4, 2-6, respectively.

Also winning their matches for Michigan, were singles players Dick Dell (8-6, 0-6, 6-4), Brian Marcus (6-4, 8-6), and Bruce De- Boer (6-4, 6-4).
