TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1966 THE MICHIGAN DAILY 'Parc QVIVVXT TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1966 THE MICHIGAN DAILY VAUL ZS LVLIN 'M' II By HOWARD KOHN Michigan's "tiger in the tank" basketball bench, may be ready to providea burst of power-in addi- tion to extra mileage. Unlike the reserves of Caesar's legions who were called into action only when the frontline faltered, the Wolverine reserves have been getting a workout on the firing line. "A bench becomes especially important to a team at this time in the season, with six games com ing up in 16 days. All of our play- ers are going to have to be good, not just the starters," explained ,Coach Dave Strack. No Sweat In the last couple games, the Michigan mentor has started sub- stituting midway .through the first half, and even Cazzie Russell has been a non-perspiring spectator at the final buzzer. True, the point spread has been averaging 17.5 points, but "the reserves have at times improved the tempo of the game." "I don't think we're hurting our- selves by putting some of these boys in," says Strack, whose team's league-leading 7-1 record reflects 4 either a strong nucleus or a bal- anced system of attack. For Michigan this season, those "balancers, who have been sit- ting dangerously, inconspicuously on the wood benches while the opening lineup took the bows on the floor before gametime, include Dennis Bankey, Craig Dill, Jim Pitts and Dan Brown. The four eserves have been worth more than a consec dozen of Hannibal's elephants to Sagin Strack's five-man legion. the lea "We are one complete team and book I don't particularly think of them "I4 as a 'second string' . . . We have his pls depended on them and they have not si come along well," commented offere Strack. ersi Four Play Mrros All four registered in the scor- Mos ing column in Saturday's record- howe memb breaking bludgeoning of Wiscon- hustlii sin, and Dill finished second to was Russell in scoring with 18 points. mont Starting center Jim Myers, who'mom did pump in 14 himself, was ed an bothered by a, groin injury, and on e _-.- since Drafted iuently the 6'10" junior from aw had a chance to swish ather citrus with his picture- over-the-shoulder hook. was, of course, pleased with ay.

The 6'1" guard an official starter for the of January when John pson hobbled with a sprain- kle, and has been alternating ven terms with the senior his return. Sophomore Pitts, who delighted the crowd last weekend while he gunned for the shot to put Mich- igan over the century mark, has finally recovered from a bout with tonsilitis. He played guard against both Indiana and Wisconsin while Russell roved the front court. He will be the third returning letterman next fall, and "depend- ing upon his own perserverance, he should have an excellent chance of making the starting team." Which means one of this year's frosh will have a rough battle to avoid joining the 'bench.' Not that such a plight cannot have its rewards. Senior Dan Brown has been a benchwarmer for two championship Wolverine nto S teams and is still a reserve this season. However, Strack has been plugging him in for John Clawson at forward with "no hesitation" in the conference games. "He made an important basket for us in the Ohio State game and is a capable corner man." How does Michigan's depth1 compare to that of the other Big Ten teams? Benchers "I don't feel that our bench is substantially weaker than any other 'in the conference, although I did think before the season that Iowa had the best eight or nine players overall . . .," answered Strack. (The Hawkeyes h a v e plummeted from a contending po- ervice I pr sition into the second division.) He added that second-place Michigan State "has an adequate bench. When Stan Washington fouled out in a recent game, his replacement led a surge which in- creased State's winning margin." Minnesota, the other leading threat to Michigan's crown, has at least six experienced personnel. Paul Presthus, who took over for Lou Hudson when he broke his wrist, is now an alternate third man up front with starters Archie Clark and Dennis Dvorchek, since Hudson's return. But from all indications, Mich- igan's "tigers" could be the key determinant to how "smooth" the ride is for those last six games. Going to Europe? FIND OUT HOW! Come see speakers and movies.

Yearly, the Relays are one of the biggest college indoor track meets in the Midwest. This year, over 450 athletes from 27 mid- western schools competed. Besides Big Ten representatives Michi- gan, Michigan State, Indiana, Purdue and Northwestern, Big Eight power Missouri and promi- nent independents such as Detroit, Loyola of Chicago, Notre Dame and Air Force sent representatives. MSU's Jenison Field House was all decked out in red, white and blue bunting and green sawdust for the occasion. A crowd of more than 4000 track fans watched four meet records and two field house records fall to the excellent field of cinder- men. No team scoring was compiled, in keeping with the Relays' policy of helping to develop individuals for future dual and championship events. Despite a lack of first-place trophies, Coach Don Canham was pleased with the Wolverines' per- formance. Especially satisfying were the performances of the two- mile and one-mile relay teams. Both teams qualified for the NCAA championships in Detroit, March 11 and 12. Two Mile: Two The two-mile team placed sec- ond behind Notre Dame. The Irish led at the start, but Michigan's Jim Mercer kept close and by the time he passed to baton to Ken Coffin, the Wolverines had the lead, Coffin opening it to 20 yards. Then, Elmo Morales took over and ripped off a 1:54 half mile to gain the fastest Michigan se ment, but the Irish closed the go to only five yards. Notre Dame Ed Dean took the lead from a: chorman Cecil Norde after a la apd steadily pulled away. Commenting on Norde's finis Canham said, "He's been sick. shouldn't have run him." TI team was clocked in 7:39.9.

He could ff hardly walk on it and had to on scratch from the final. But "he e- will be ready to run this week," Canham added. CRAIG DILL Michigan Keeps Tenth Spot; Wildcats Solidly in, First Although advancing in totalc points by the virtue of their 120- 102 drubbing of undermannedt Wisconsin, the Michigan five re-i mained in tenth place in the As-I sociated Press' weekly poll ofR writers.1 With a total of 82 points, the Wolverines moved within five of the thrice-beaten Nebraska Corn- huskers, defeated last week in action against Oklahoma City. Number one for the second con- secutive week, Adolph Rupp's Ken- tucky fivesome amassed a near perfect point-total of 416, gar- nering 40 of the 42 first-place ballots. Taking over the top last week from the Duke Blue Devils, the Wildcats are now a perfect 19-0, while the second-ranked Duke squad is 17-2 following last week's loss to West Virginia. In third place, moving up from fourth last week, is the nation's only major unbeaten team other than Kentucky -- Texas Western.
