PAGE SIX THE MICHIGAN DAILY THURSDAY, JANUARY 20.196r, i PA~E|T |||IC IG N AIYTH-SAY-JNURY20 -6 LLOYD GRAFF Gophers Face Grapplers THE STATS SPEAK: Caz Tops in All Departments The Sticky Problems Of Good Guymanship And how's your identity crisis-lately? I was trembling on the brink of substance yesterday when I read an item that kicked me back into the morass of confusion. This fellow named Dick Sisler is getting the annual "Good Guy Award" from the New York sportswriters on Jan. 30. Sisler managed the Cincinnati Reds last season toa third place finish. It was his first shot as a major league manager, and Cincy canned him right after the season ended. Well, here I am ready to graduate with. the Tormenting Decisions to make. Who am I; what should I be; what should I do? Who should I be? You know the bit. You're an extroverted recluse, a selfish humanitarian, a hotblooded cool guy, a con- servative revolutionary, a savior rat. We mental chameleons have our problems. Comes the "Good Guy Award" to a fellow who got fired, and then I read about sassy, arrogant Leo Durocher who coined the phrase "good guys finish last." He landed the managership of the Chicago Cubs for forty grand per annum. The problems of good guymanship nags. I mean, most of us wouldn't mind being good guys if it paid, but a substantial body of empirical evidence indicates it probably doesn't. A big wad of history is martyrology. The fact is, that if you're going to be a good guy you've got to accept the vicissitudes. The world will kick you around whether you're lovable or a cuss, but the good guys' welts will be deeper. The question is whether the cushion of good guymanship is softer than the pillow of rattiness. Does the satisfaction of being a good guy compensate for the gains of being a louse? You're Wretched... The problem with being a good guy though, is that you end up thinking you're a wretch. If you're a louse, however, you billow with self esteem and accept the accolades of your peers. The truly good people seem acutely aware of their failings. Con- sider the humane and worthwhile people you know. They're down on themselves aren't they? They're openly self critical, frequently in- secure, usually lonely. They are more often distraught than content. Now think of the blissful ruthless rats among your acquaintances. They appear quite pleased with themselves-their status, friends, achievements, personality. Distressing, isn't it. And such a majority. These are idle ramblings anyway because if you have to decide. on an essential code of behavior, you're probably lost already. I have little faith in rational choice of the good. Perhaps you evolve into behavior rather than willfully pointing your nose in the direction of the noble, then propelling yourself to the destination. It is a simple matter to give charity, but so difficult to feel charitably. And yet in another way it's easy to think highminded and and act lowdown. If only wearing a white hat were enough. By CLARK NORTON A Minnesota mat crew term- ed by Wolverine wrestling Coach Cliff Keen "as tough as any in Gopher history" invades the Wol- verines' home territory Friday night in what shapes up to be one of the best matches of the year. Terry Barrett, and returning let- termen John Klein, Bob Ramstad and Jon Staebler. Anderson, at 123 pounds, is a former Minnesota state high high school champ, and will face conference champion Bob Fehrs, who has lost only one this sea- in the quadrangular meet at Chi- cago and serves as captain for the Gopher squad.sReplacing the other injured Michigan grappler, Dave Dozeman, will be Gordon Weeks, in the 130 pound class. Weeks' competition figures to be Larry Lloyd, a junior and former Iowa state high, school wrestling champ. "The loss of Kamman and Doze- man is bound to handicap us," Keen remarked. "They are two very important members of the squad. Dozeman's injury, fortu- nately, is not very serious - he has a sprain in his back-but he will most likely be out of action this one week." What, No TV? The Minnesota game will; NOT be broadcast on TV, WJBK or otherwise, according to latest information. Tickets are now on sale at the ticket office, 511 E. Hoover. The game begins at 1:30 p.m. Saturday. At 147 pounds Minnesota will have Bob Henry, rated an out- standing wrestler. Although he broke his wrist at the start of last year's campaign, the senior letterman is coming back strong. Henry will face Cal Jenkins of the Wolves, who was injured last season, but is undefeated in ac- tion this year. By BOB LEES When he blew a dunk shot Sat- urday night, the crowd groaned., But they didn't groah for long- he doesn't miss for long. By the time the game had run its course, Cazzie Russell, Mich- igan's - and everybody's - All- American, had scored 39 points, pulled down 20 rebounds, and led the Blue to a 93-86 come-from- behind victory at Northwestern. But more than that, he has raised his career point total to 1744, a Michigan scoring record, eclipsing the previous mark of 1725 set by Bill Buntin last year. He is also on his way to breaking Michigan's individual season scoring mark, which he himself holds, getting 694 points last year while shoot- ing a cool 48.6 per cent from the floor and 81.7 per cent from the foul line. With 11 games to go in the regular season, Caz will set or approach records every time he hoops a point. In this, his last season of varsity basketball, Cazzie is having his greatest year ever. He leads the team in everything but broken shoelaces. His 29.2 scoring aver- age leac the Big Ten, rests among the top five nationwide, and would be even higher were it not for thenfact thatnumber ei assists is one of his team-leading categories. Chicago Man Cazzie, Chicago-born, seems to do especially well before the home- town crowd, averaging 40 points a game this year in the Windy City. Against highly-regarded San Francisco at Chicago Stadium on Dec. 11, he hit 16 field goals and 13 free throws for 45 points, a Michigan individual mark for one game. No Wolverine fan can forget the number of times Cazzie has led Michigan from the brink of disaster to victory. Last year he twice hit game-winning field goals at the buzzer, made 11 points against Princeton in the last 412 minutes as the Wolverines came from behind to beat the Tigers by two, got five in 33 seconds in one game as Michigan won by two,, and scored eight points in over- time in a five-point Michigan victory. But the Wolverines' offense is! not based entirely on one m .n. The team as a whole is averag .ng 89.2 points per game, while hold- ing its opponents to 79.7. Second to Cazzie in individual scoring is John Clawson with 14.9, while Jim Myers and Oliver Darden are also in double figures, averaging 11.8 and 11.4 respectively. In field goals, Cazzie's 146 total is followed by those of Clawson, Myers, and Darden, who have 82, 65, and 53 respectively. Darden, who has been deadly the past few games from the foul line, has 31 thus far to hold second place behind Cazzie's 88, but this total is closely followed by Claw- son's 30. Myer's 24, and Craig Dill's 22. Count Them In T h e rebounding department shows the same familiar faces in the lead positions. Cazzie, of course, leads with 116, but Ollie has 109 to remain close behind, followed by Clawson with 97 and Myers with 85. The team as a whole has pulled down 627 re- bounds, 68 more than its oppo- nents, which comes as a surprise to those who felt that the loss of Bill Buntin would hurt Michigan's board strength. With three starters gone from last year's team, many observers felt that the Wolverines would not be as stronga contender for the Big Ten crown. But any team with Cazzie Russell is a team to be reckoned with. Michigan has a team, and Michigan has Russell. 'Nutt said. SPORTS NIGHT EDITOR: GRETCHEN TWIETMEYER 4 A. 1 GOPHER MATMAN JIM ANDERSON will be pitted against Big Ten champion Bob Fehrs tomorrow night in the 123-lb. division battle. Anderson, a 5-8 sophomore from Fridley, Minn., is rated as a top prospect for the Gophers. The Minnesota grapplers already have two impressive victories un- der their belts, one in a quad- rangular meet in Chicago includ- ing Big Ten opponents North- western, Michigan State, and, Purdue, and another over Iowa; in a dual meet 32-0. "This will be a battle of un- beatens and one of our toughest tests in the past four years," em- phasized Keen. "Minnesota has no weak spots on its entire team, and, along with Michigan State and ourselves, should be the teams to beat in the conference." Impressive Lineup Minnesota Coach Wally John- son seemed overly modest earlier when he remarked, "We should be fairly strong this year." The Gophers are led by undefeated sophomores Jim Anderson and SCORES COLLEGE BASKETBALL St. John's (N.Y) 82, St. Joseph's (Pa.) 72 Cincinnati 85, Bradley 69 Louisville 94, Dayton 77 Detroit 101, Villanova 94 Georgia Tech 89, Georgia 56 Harvard 74, Dartmouth 70 Hope 74, Kalamazoo 69 Miami (Ohio) 88, Western Michigan 70 Eastern Michigan 90, Wayne State 75 NBA Philadelphia, 110, Detroit 93 Boston 129, Baltimore 89 NHL Toronto 6, New York 2 The meet will take place at 7:30 son.

Michigan's dual meet conquest Klein, a regular last year, will record to 35 straight. wrestle in the 167 pound division against Bill Waterman. "Klein is a real hot-shot," offered Keen. Ramstad will be pitted in the 177 pound class against sophomore Wayne Wentz of Michigan, who is also undefeated. The heavyweight division will find big Staebler at 245 pounds, facing outstanding CAZZIE RUSSELL 4 Join The Daily Sports Staff Wolverine sophomore Dave Por- ter. Porter has just one varsity setback. Kamman Replaced The three remaining three matches should not offer any less challenge for the Wolves. Perhaps the major problem facing Coach Keen will be replacing the two Michigan wrestlers who will prob- ably be incapacitated this Friday. "Jim Kamman is definitely out with a knee injury in the 157 pound class," Keen revealed. The same injury required Kamman to default his match last week at Northwestern. Either junior Burt Merical or sophomore Wayne Hansen will go against Lee Gross, a junior who is 1964 Big Ten champion.
