By DAVE KIMBALL
A winless but improving Michi-
gan' basketball team will host a
strong Pittsburgh quintet tonight
in the Wolverines' home opener
at Yost Field House, starting at 8
The Wolverines, losers in their
first two outings against Vander-
bilt and Tennessee last weekend,
will be trying to retain, if not
improve, the form they showed
in the second half against Ten-
nessee Saturday night. During the
last 15 minutes of play they bat-
tled the Volunteers on even terms
despite the fact that they had

earlier lost the services of 6'4"
sophomore Don Petroff, who was
ejected for fighting.
"Petroff should not have been
kicked out of the game," coach
Dave Strack remarked after the
game. "He fouled (Skimp) Camp-
bell on the rebound, but Campbell
went out of his way just to take
a swing at him." The referees,
after removing only Campbell at
first, reversed their decision and
ejected both players.
Strack was disappointed in his
team's showing against Vander-
bilt and during the first half
against Tennessee, but was much
encouraged by Michigan's per-
formance in the second half
against the Volunteers. "We didn't
play 100 per cent up to our ca-
pacity most of the time," the
young mentor said, "but during

the second half we looked like a
real, ball club should. If we were
to meet them again it could be
a completely different story."'
The fact that Petroff -wa ejected
may or may not have had an effect
on the outcome of the Tennessee
game. "Petroff is 6'4" and Camp-
bell is 5'10" and was not doing
much. We were definitely hurt
more by the action than they
were," Strack added.
Tonight's game will be the ninth
between the Wolverines and the
Panthers -in a home and home
series dating back to 1952. Michi-
gan leads in the current series
5-3, and in all-time competition
between the two schools the Wol-
verines hold a 9-5 edge.
The first game between the two
teams was played in 1925 when
Michigan edged the Panthers, 34-

25, in an era when few games
were played (the Wolverines
played only 17 that year) and low
scoring games were the rule rather
than the exception. Pitt won last
year's tussle, 71-56.
In Pitt the Wolverines will be
facing a good-shooting club which
likes to run a lot, according to
Tom Jorgenson, one of Stracks
assistants who watched the Pan-
thers'- edge Purdue's Boilermakers
81-80. In its only other game Pitt
was beaten by ,navy, 63-59.
Strack foresees no change in,
style or attack for tonigi
"We just want to improvi
as possible what we h
added. "We have a Ior
ahead of us and right
most important task i
which five boys can w
together."
According to Strackr the
starting lineup for tonig
test will be Petroff a
Maentz at forward, BoJb
center, and captain Johi
and Steve Schoenherr at
spots.

against St. Louis last night but
eventually outran the Billikens for
an 81-66 basketball victory, the
second of the season for the NCAA1
Champions.
The Bills broke into a 4-0 lead
on a pair of baskets by 6' 10" Bob
Nordmann and, except for two
ties, led the first 19 minutes of
play.
St. Louis used -a slowed-down;
offense, an aggressive man-for-
man defense collapsing on All-
American Jerry Lucas.
Jerry Lucas, limited to one miss-
ed field goal and six free throws
in the first half, finished with 23
points as the Buckeyes turned on
their steam in the second half.
Detroit 70, Utah State 68
DETROIT - John Morgan, a
junior college transfer student
playing in his second major college
basketball, game, calmy dropped
in two free throws in the final five
seconds and lifted Detroit's slug-
gish Titans to a hectic 70-68 vic-
tory over Utah State.
The 6' 6" sophomore was fouled
by Darnel Haney as the Titans
tried to weave in close for a
final basket. Morgan got the one,
then made his bonus shot that
sealed the victory over the Aggies,
ranked eighth in the nation last
season.
Morgan, a transferee from Coal-
inga (Calif.) JC, had 11 points for
the evening while Dave DeBucs-

MSU 70, Bowling Green 67
BOWLING GREEN - Michigan
State almost blew a 21-point
lead but managed to fight off a
stubborn Bowling Green team for
a 70-67 basketball victory.
Michigan State, which scored
almost at will in the first half
and midway through the second,
had to resort to freeze tactics in
the final minutes to retain the
lead.
Three Spartans scored in double
figures, led by Dick Hall who had
23. Dave Fahs dumped in 18 and
Art Schwarm had 14.
Minnesota 60, Missouri 56
COLUMBIA, Mo., - Torn Mc-
Grann, a 6' 7" sophomore, fur-
nished both the scoring punch and
the key defensive performance as
Minnesota beat Missouri'e basket-
ball team 60-56.
McGrann held Missouri's high-
scoring Charlie Henke to 12 points.
Henke had averaged 23.5 going
into the game. He made only four
of his 18 shots from the field,
two each half.

Iowa State 88, Wisconsin 76
AMES, Iowa - Sophomore re-
serve Mary Straw and veteran
Henry Whitney triggered Iowa
State to an 88-76 victory over
Wisconsin in a non-conference
basketball game which opened the
Cyclones' season.
Straw, a 6' 4" speedster, scored
15 points, including 14 in the
last 11 minutes of the first half.

points.

game in three starts, was paced
by Tom Hughbanks with 17 points
and Ken Siebel with 16.
North Carolina 77, LSU 61
CHAPEL HILL-North Carolina
opened its basketball season in the
winning column with a compara-
tively easy 77-61 victory.
Doug Moe and York Larese,
fancy dans of Coach Frank Mc-
Guire's Tar Heels, were scoring
leaders with 17 points each.
However, their antics got out
of hand at times, with passes going
wild and other minor mishaps. In
fact, play generally was a little
ragged, perhaps a sign of first
night jitters.
The Tar Heels showed their
superiority in the rebound depart-
ment. They snagged 69 rebounds,
compared to 38 for LSU.

Indiana 98, Kansas State 80
MANHATTAN, Kan. - Walt
Bellamy and Tom Bolyard led
a 10-point rally that sent Indiana
off to a 98-80 basketball victory
over the Kansas State Wildcats.
Kansas State led two-thirds of
the game before the Hoosiers took
control. Indiana had a narrow 71-
69 margin with 8:35 left when
the Hoosiers hit five straight field
goals to make the score 81-71,
and the issue never was in doubt
thereafter.
-Bellamy, opening his bid for a
second All-America berth, and
Bolyard each made two buckets in
that hot streak. The 6' 11" Bellamy,
counted 26 points and Bolyard 22.
Both were outshone, however,
by K-State's Cedric Price who
made 29 points, blocked four Bel-
lamy shots and was a workhorse
under both backboards, Price made
15 points in the first half, leading
K-State to a 45-40 intermission
advantage.
