WEDNESDAY, MARCH 1, 1967 THE MICHIGAN DAUX M' Cage rs...o Skaters... .Prepare for Big W I PAGE SEVEN -j~ekentd 3 By JOEL RUBENSTEIN As with everything else, the Greeks had a word for it. "Sopho- more" was the word derived from two separate t e r m s, "sophs," meaning wise and "more," foolish. The two foes in this Saturday's Cobo Hall basketball match, Mich- igan and Wisconsin seem to have taken this dichotomy to heart. The Badgers, with a 6-4 confer- ence record, have very "wisely" Big Ten Standings used their reservoir of sophomores, including Chuck Nagle, who re- cently established an all-time Wis- consin soph scoring mark. As evidenced by their two wins in 11 big tries, the equally-soph- studded Wolverine crew has adopt- ed the latter half of the term "sopho-more." With the help of some highly "moro" ballplaying ("foolish" sounds too heartless), the cagers have found themselves in the Big Ten basement, a far cry from their attic-dwelling habit of recent years. The juvenile Dairyland five, well-manned with the help of three sophs and no seniors, have staged a deafening resurgence of late, with four consecutive Big Ten victories, only to be silenced by a 91-82 loss to Northwestern last night, in which Jim Johnson and Nagle procured 18 and 17x points, respectively.- ' Last Week1 Center JimsJohnson, forwardt Chuck Nagle, both 6'5", and 6'2" Michigan travels to Minnesota for a two-game hockey series this weekend and the mythical Big Ten title is at stake. Acknowledged in many quarters as the "dirtiest team in the league," the Gophers did nothing to dispel the myth during their visit to Ann Arbor in January. As Gophers marched to the penalty box, Michigan buried them 10-5 and burned them 5-4. Minnesota has continued undaunted, however, keeping a tight hold on the WCHA's cellar and getting an even tighter told on the league's penalty race. They have relaxed a bit from their early season pace of 20 minutes per game, but they lead their nearest competitor by 70 penalty minutes. Easy pickings? Maybe for the referees. Michigan coach Al Renfrew does a double take when he hears Minneapolis. "They're mighty tough in their own rink. They get more than the usual home advantage there." Minnesota has the largest collegiate ice rink--it holds "7,654" rabid hockey fans-and they regularly fill it. guard Tom Mitchell, all still boy- with two antiquated old fogies: ish sophomores, spread their baby juniors Tom Mitchell, a guard, powder all over the court last week and, at a dehydrated 165 pounds, in slipping up Michigan State and Joe Franklin.

Many tickets are still avnilable for Saturday's hoop duel. For the Wolverine cagers, now swarming in the morgue of the Big Ten, one can only think of an old expression which would be quite ironic in this case: "The liv- ing need charity more than the dead.' When the seemingly dying Wolverines meet the much-alive diaper-age Badgers this weekend, the dead might start looking for charity themselves. W L Pet.

HALF-TIME GOALIE: Herman Happy When 'M' Wins frame has leaped the junior into By DAN OKRENT It's said that sharing one's privi- leges if there is an equal division of responsibilities and duties i fine. Somehow, though, when the question is moved into an athletic context, the maxim does not hold. Take Harold Herman as an ex- ample, Herman, junior goalie on the Michigan hockey team, arrived on the squad last winter faced with the unseemly prospect of unseat- ing returning starter Greg Page. After alternating net time with Page for the early stages of the year, Herman managed to emerge as number one man for Coach Al Renfrew for the bulk of the sea- son. This year, the situation was re- versed, with the aura of sophomore Jimmy Keough, gliding into pre- season practices with the reputa- tion as one of the top frosh goalies in recent Michigan history, loom- ing in front of Herman's plans for the season. Like Last Year "In the beginning of the year, everybody was coming up to me and saying that they had heard about Jimmy. Of course I thought about the similar situation last year, but I guess I just pledged to work harder," Herman attests. "It's an amazing stimulus to know that your job is up for grabs." As it eventually was resolved, Herman and Keough have been employed in nightly alternation by Coach Renfrew. "Of course I'd rather be on the ice than watching the game from the stands, but I can't complain when we're win- ning."f And perhaps this -statement typifies the attitude that Harold Herman takes toward his hoc- key. It's not individual glory that he's playing for-Harold Herman wants to win. Team Effort He likes to talk about what the team has, not what's missing. "A lot of people worried when (All- American) Mel Wakabayashi grad- uated in December," he says, re- ferring to the mid-year departure of the Michigan center who had sparked the team to ten straight victories early this season, "but now we don't find ourselves rely- ing on one player like we used to. Now its entirely a team effort." Herman, a short, stocky, phys-ed major who looks eventually to a career in business, doesn't refrain from spreading the credit for the numerous good performances he and Keough have produced to the shoulders of his defense. "I doubt if there's a better defense in the . where Will you be In as good a spot 5CFt'iM san original contribu- as you are today? tion to your area of Well-informed ? interest.

"The guys we have in front of the goal this year are far better than what we had last year, and we did fine with them." Continually, his phrases are in collective, rather than individual terms. His sentences are spiced with "we," with "the team," with other plurals that denote group action. And he also manages to survey the team analytically from his vantage point behind the crease. "When you're in the goal, you can tell exactly how things are going out on the ice. Each goal scored, each check a player em- ploys, all actions are seen by the goalie. And it's easy to see why we're doing well this year. The guys are skating hard." Herman's attitudes toward tend- ing goal are, too, reflected in his use of the "team context." In no way does he ever stress individuals when talking about opponents, about the WCHA race, or about how he plays various opponents. Whole Team Counts "A goalie can't afford to say 'here comes so-and-so' when he's on the ice." Herman explains that "this is the easiest way to psyche out, to blow your cool. When you play a team, you've got to think about the whole team, not just one or two players." He points to the NCAA tourna- ment threat currently being forged at Michigan State now that the conference race has been won by North Dakota. Recalling last year's MSU victory in national competi- tion after their second-division finish in the conference, Herman notes the two-game series that the Spartans swept three weekends ago as a sign of their improving 'play. No Pressure "They're playing entirely with-' out pressure; and they can look toward conditioning for the play- offs without the tension of the' conference race," Herman says,' perhaps with an irked tone in his voice. It's a tone that might tell! you that boy, if they beat us in the tournament, there'll be hell to pay. Herman talks about the advant- ages of playing at home (It's nice to have the crowd on your side"), the disadvantage of playing in the "Icebox' at North Dakota ("The league shouldn't allow conditions like that"), and the sheer enjoy- ment he gets out of hockey-a sport where he realizes his chance of making it to the pro leagues is slim, his chances for a decent contract should be happen to make it even slimmer, and the realiza -f tion that when his three years are up at Michigan, he'll most likely be through in the game., But, despite his raw enthusiasm, he'd like to see something concrete come out of it nevertheless-and he feels that the Wolverines' chances at this year's playoffs in Syracuse as a chance for that something.
