CA"JLA r.71i li 111 .., SDynamic Duo Key to Illini in I By CHUCK VETZNER It is with understandable prej- Audice that Michigan basketball Coach Dave Strack bubbles with joyful effusiveness when present- ed with an opportunity to praise his own band. But when talking about an op- posing player, Strack tends to be parsimonious with the sugar- frosted adjectives. Instead, he'll wrinkle up his brow, think for a minute, and come to the conclu- sion that the foe is "good." Even then you sort of get the feeling he's not satisfied with the word. He'd prefer something to make it clearer that the man in question is not in a class with people like Cazzie Russell. Yesterday, however, Strack was ready to admit that Rich Jones and Don Freeman are "awfully good." At least they were Tues- day when they sparked Illinois' 09-93 win over the Wolverines. "We weren't quite sure what to expect from lthem," Strack ex- plains, "but we sure didn't expect 64 points." To anyone watching the game on ,television, they must have ap- peared to be the most dynamic duo since Batman and Robin hit the airwaves. Freeman, who has hindered Michigan before, played his best game ever against the Wolver- ines. Although he doesn't even reach a full 6'2", he popped in 33 points and was the game's lead- ing rebounder with 12. Holy Jumping Jacks Jones, the sophomore boy won- der, took about 20 minutes to really get the feel for the tussle. He spent the first period gather- ing 10 points and four fouls, but in the second stanza, he was at his unsophomoric best and netted 21 more points. "In the first half, he just didn't seem very good," gasped Strack. Despite the brilliance of Messrs. Jones and Freeman, Michigan UAC, U Are Cowards We know you're waiting with baited breath for the score of the Daily-UAC game. There is none. The UAC (which evidently stands for UnAble to Concen- trate) went to Waterman Gym while The Daily stalwarts marched to the IM Building where the game was supposed to be played. Said a UAC spokesman contacted by phone, "I guess we were more inter- ested in the party afterwards than the game." Typical. Meanwhile, The Daily Libeds ran through a rigorous practice. Daily Captain "Lloyd the Leap- er" Graff expressed Libel senti- ment. "They're afraid of us, like the Regents, administra-, tion and campus girls." stayed right with the Illini un- til the very end. One of the rea- sons was, of course, CazzieRus- sell who had an "average" night, shooting his number, 33. Swish, Swish Also helping out was Jim Myers and his automatic 20-foot jump- er. In the first half, John Claw- son had scored 14 points while being guarded by Freeman. To start the second,' Illinois Coach Harry Combes moved Jones closer to the basket to help shut off Clawson. This left the long-haired, un- shaven Myers (known as "Shaggy" in certain sections of Yost) open at the top of the key. Combes strategy did hold Claw- son to only six in the second per- iod and also helped keep Free- man and Jones in the game. Both Illinois' stars played the second half with four personals, but they were now guarding a man who wasn't shooting, and as a result they did not have to put themselves in a position of draw- ing the deadly fifth foul. Jones and Deon Flessner, who sounds more like a rock 'n roll singer than a forward, eventually did foul out, but by that time Jones had already done more than an evening's work. The Reason Why If blame for the loss has to be tangibly explained, the best sta- tistic to consider is Illinois' 70 per cent shooting percentage in 'Designed for student privacy UfliVERSITY TOWERS " Now renting for Aug.

For one not endowed with a great deal of natural talent, he has produced a fine competitive record." So spoke Coach Newt Loken about one of the Big Ten champion's important but lesser known participants. John, a senior, has not receiv- ed a great deal of publicity be- cause-he is a one event man. He limits his competition strictly to the high bar. Thus, if he does not do well in that one event he has nowhere to make up the lost ground. This has not seemed to affect John in the past though. In the past two years, he has finished fifth in the Big Ten high bar competition. Last year, he fin- ished first among the Wolverines, closely followed by since graduat- ed Alex Frecska and all-around gymnast Gary Vander Voort. When asked about Coach Newt Loken and his effect on his per- formance, John said, "Coach Lok- en is one of the best in the coun- try. he improves on the basic training we have acquired while in high school." John learned the basic techniques at New Trier High School in a suburb of Chi- cago. As far as this year is concern- ed, John feels that he has not performed up to par. "I was sick before Christmas," he explained, "so I was not in good shape for the Ohio State, meet. Last week against Wisconsin, I missed my best trick." Cashman has been working on his routine and hopes to perform better the rest of the season. He explained, "It is my last year here, and I feel like I want to do some- thing." John sees Scott Paris and Gary Vander Voort as his top competitors in the high bar. He looks to Michigan State's Jim Curzi, the national champion i the high bar, as the biggest threat to him and to the rest of the high bar squad. Airborne Plans John is currently enrolled in aeronautical engineering and plans either to continue in graduate school or to go to Lockheed for air training in California. From there, he wants to secure a com- mercial flying license. Right now, Cashman is presi- dent of the Michigan Flying Club. Last year, he piloted a plane for the skydivers of the University Parachuting Club. As for the remainder or the season, John has high hopes for a sixth straight Big Ten crown for the Michigan gymnasts. "Our next meet, against Iowa, will be one of the two main focuses of the season. The other is, of course, our meeting against Michigan State." As Coach Loken pointed out about Cashman, in the final an- alysis, "His performance and his record of consistence routines is indicative of hard work during each week on his part. He is a very fine young man that will surely be a success in his profes- sional life." U h. L Largests choice of living units UflV(RSITY TOW(RS SNow renting for Aug. S. UNIVERSITY AVE. & FOREST AVE.

After three quarters it was 4-4. "The fourth quarter was a real barn-burner," said Chardon Coach Hal Wilcox - after his Chardon High School basketball team lost to Jefferson High 25-18 in a game dominated by Jefferson High's slow break style. "Our players were so distraught they couldn't play up to their capabilities," Wilcox said. d * PRODUCT DESIGN * CUSTOMER SERVICE * SALES * MANUFACTURING We offer challenging positions in the above areas to qualified technically trained men who desire a future with a well established progress-orientated organization.
