Special To The Daily
MADISON-Gutsy Oliver Dar-
den, shoveling 20-footers into the
bucket like an undertaker, dug
stubborn Wisconsin's grave here
yesterday, then buried the Bad-
gers himself as he propelled
Michigan's Wolverines to their
tightest victory of the season,
a 69-67 thriller.
The victory was the fifth with-
out a loss for the first place Blue,
and the 19th in their last 20 Big
Ten games.
Michigan went into the contest
averaging89.7 points per game but
cold shooting combined with a
fantastic Wisconsin rebounding
effort resultedin a low scoring
struggle which wasn't decided un-
til the final second of play.
* Michigan Trails Early
Wisconsin led briefly at the out-
set, but after the first five min-
utes of play, Michigan never
trailed.
The Wolverines saw an early 11
point margin whittled down to
four by the halftime, and even
further thereafter as Ken Gus-

tafon's hot hand gave Wisconsin
a 51-51 tie with ten minutes re-
maining
With 3:47 left the Wolverine
lead was 61-59 and it was at this
point that 6'7" Darden took the
reigns, scoring six of Michigan's
last eight points. First, his long
jump shot made it 63-59.
Oh '0'
'T'en seconds later the lead was
down to two again but once agair
Darden's aim was sharp, this time
on a cord-rippling set shot fron
22 feet. .i
Up 66-63 with the ball and the
clock both on their side the Wol-
verines went into their most suc-
cessful stalling effort of the sea
-son, holding the Spaulding citrus

for 90 crucial seconds.1
When they finally took a shot
it was with 0:46 showing on the1
clock. And it was Darden again,
smashing in a lay-up and getting
fouled in the process.
Beat the Clock
The three Darden shots virtually
clinched the victory. Wisconsin
had enough time for two more
baskets but not three.
With seven seconds left and the
score 68-67, John Clawson sunk
the first of a one on one free
throw situation. The second was
no good but the Badgers' Mike
Carlin only had time to frantically
dribble the ball into the Wiscon-
sin half of the court before the
buzzer sounded.
Said Wisconsin's Johnny Erick-
son after the game, "I didn't even.
think Darden was going to shoot

those shots, let alone make them.
Michigan is a spunky, courageousl
team. I looked at Dave (Strack)I
sitting on the bench and he didn't
even flinch."
Darden gave his version in the
plane on the way home. "I had
the shots and I thought I could
hit 'em. They were good percent-
age shots and I was open. The
pressure gets to you but when you
have been playing for as long as
I have, there is no reason to
succumb to it. It shouldn't interfer
with your shooting."
Darden, hitting just over fifty
per cent of his 17 shots, was the
only Wolverine anywhere near the
fifty mark. For the most part, the
Blue were as cold as the fifteen
below zero Madison weather.
In the second half Darden put
in six of nine field goal attempts,

while the rest of the team was
hitting four of 25 for a not-so-
torrid 16 per cent.
A fellow by the name of Russell,
after hitting six of nine in the
first half, made only one of 12
shots in the last 20 minutes,
though putting through 5 clutch
free throws to finish with 21
points, three more than Darden.

Jim Myers with 11 and John
Clawson with 10 carried what re-
mained of the Michigan attack.
Wisconsin's lift in the game
was provided by a pair of jump-
ing forwards, Joe Franklin and
Ken Barnes, who combined for
25 rebounds. Overall the Badgers
outrebounded their taller invad-
ers by a 55-43 margin.

Michigan Coach Dave Strack
pointed to Wisconsin's rebounding
attack as the significant factor
in the game. "They rebounded
much better than we had antici-
pated. They fought like hell and
went at the boards with a fren-
zy."
Scoring-wise, the Badgers re-
ceived a 14 point first half ef-

put on a respectable showing by
winning two first places.
Colleges represented at the meett
included Loyola, Northwestern,t
Notre Dame, Western Michigan,E
Eastern Michigan, Central Mich-
igan, Bowling Green and Cornell
College. The Southern California 1
Striders also had two competitorsf
entered in the meet. No pointz
totals were kept.
Notre Dame's Bill Hurd astound-t
ed the crowd with a tremendous
performance in the 60-yard dash.
Running far ahead of Michigan's
Carl Ward who placed second,
Hurd snapped the fieldhouse and
meet records in the time of six
seconds flat. The sophomore, who
ran a 6.1 sixty earlier in the day,
turned in one of the country's top
times this year with his sensa-
tional mark. Willie Brown, a Mich-
igan senior, finished behind Ward.
Strong Shot Men
The Wolverines' greatest success
of the evening came in the shot
put as Michigan cindermen took
four of the first five places. The
quartetuwas led byaJack Harvey
who pushed the ball 55' /". He
was followed by Steve Leuchtman
in second, Paul D'Eramo in fourth
and Bob Thomas in fifth.
Roy Woodton appeared to be
back in his top form of two years
ago as he cracked the meet record
in the high hurdles with a 7.4
second performance. A Wolverine
sophomore, Woody Fox, placed
third.

Shot-putter Bob Johnson heav-
ed the iron ball 49'11%", more
than three and a half feet far-
ther than his closestcompetitor
and better the old mark by 3'9".
Also cracking a frosh record, Gary
Knickerbocker cleared the bar at

man Ron Kutchinski in the record
