Highlighted by Dick Richards'
unexpected victory on the parallel
bars, Michigan captured t w o
championships and qualified five
individuals for the NCAA's in last
night's final session of the Big
Ten Gymnastics Championships.
Richards matched his previous
night's score of 9.35 in winning his
title by more than a point over
teammate Ron Rapper, the de-
fending champion. The other in-
dividual winer was Dave Jacobs,
who took his third trampoline
crown in as many years with a
brilliant 9.55 performance.

was hampered in this event by the

Leafs virtually assured themselves
a berth in the National Hockey
League playoffs by beating the
Detroit Red Wings 3-1 last night.
Ongoals by Brit Selby, George
Armstrong and Dave Keon, the
Leafs moved four points ahead of
the Wings in fourth spot in the
Eastern Division.hs
The Leafs still have five games
remaining in regular-season play
and the Wings three.
Frank Maholvich scored the
only Detroit goal, in the first
period.
-Roy Edwards, in goal for De-
troit, was at times seemingly all
alone in his end of the ice, even-
tually handling 36 Toronto drives
while Bruce Gamble was tested
only 29 times by the Red Wings.
MONTREAL-Yvan Cournoyer,
the Canadiens' speedy right-wing-
er, scored his 42nd and 43rd goals
of the season last night as Mon-
treal turned back the New York
Rangers 3-1 in a National Hockey
League game before 17,935 fans.
Bobby Rousseau's 29th goal of
the season-a second-period power
play effort--turned out to be the
winner for Montreal.
Jean Ratelle, the crafty New
York center, fired his 27th of the
season for the New Yorkers' lone
