Orville's a neat guy. Always there with his big paw just when
feel like shaking someone's hand,
'Hey," he says, his big arm extended (he -always calls me
), "I never got a chance to give you the big 'congrats on
ng that sports editor job."
[ put my hand into his sweaty grip. "No, Orv, not sports
r, just associate sports editor."
'What's the diff? Now you're a big wheel, huh? Boy, right
le top. Nothing like being a BMOC. Girls, honoraries,
C had a creepy feeling he wanted something.
'Hey, I bet you're going to write a column and everything, huh?
what are you going to complain about? I mean, Cazzie Russell
just about had his run. Yost Field House had had about all
djectives it can take. What's it going to be?"
[ must have had a blank stare
y face..
ey, -you've got to complain
t something. I know a sports
r at- the University of Buf-
who's, complaining because.
rack coach doesn't even know
ae events. I mean, now that's
thing to really get sore at."
.e I said, Orv's a neat guy.y
les, he has a sharp sister.
Orv, how about the Ferry,
stands? I could call them the
Arbor Stonehenge." Might
ibe them as no more than a
to on an outhouse. Might
rent that the doors to two
ockerrooms still remain under
stands, one marked "Chris-
the other one/"Lions."
v shifted his feet, stroked his
"Has possibilities. Yeah. ... LOUNGES WOULD BURN
's a real rub."'
'Or how about girl cheerleaders?"
Orv choked on his cherry coke. "Great. Great. Hey, how about
Daily campaign? Run pictures of pretty coeds, get up petitions,
nasty editorials-the whole bit?''
'Would never work, Orv."
"How come?"
"Tradition."
Ee never heard me.
'I can see it now. Girl cheerleaders! The golden words, Wild!
re would The Daily stop-where could they go from here?
Id they seek Hatcher's resignation? Would they try to annex
moon to North Campus? Girl cheerleaders! It was wild, man,
All at once the campus would be humming-then talking-
then a roar! Girl cheerleaders! Out of the MUG, out of Angell
out of Betsy Barbour they'd march, the numbers growing into
thousands. Down to the athletic building the mob sweeps-
dgan would have girl cheerleaders or the faculty lounges would
. 38-23-36 or fight! Petitions with. the signatures of 27,000
ents would fly through the air. Police dogs could not quell the
n1. Girl cheerleaders!"
"Would never work, Orv."
"How come?"J
"Tradition."

Bob Spaly, Jack Barden and Bill
Riddle successfully passed their
first test in the Olympic wrestling
trials last Saturday.
The grappling trio qualified for
the final tryouts to be held at
the New York World's Fair on Au-
gust 24-26 by finishing first in
their weight classes at the regional
meet at Zeeland, Mich. The Unit-
ed States Olympic wrestling team
will be selected from the results
of the final tryouts in August.
. Spaly, who finished second in
this year's Big Ten meet for Mich-
igan, decisioned Lansing Sexton's
three-time Michigan high school
champion Dave Porter to capture
the 191-pound title. Michigan's
1963 NCAA champion Jack Barden
was victorious in the 213-pound
class.
Pan-American champion Bill
Riddle showed his championship
form as he took the 138-pound
crown and was chosen as the
meet's most valuable wrestler. Rid-
dle and Barden had both been
working out with Michigan's team
during this season's wrestling cam-
paign.
Michigan Big Ten 147-pound
champion Lee Deitrick was vic-
timized by the tournament's scor-
ing system. Deitrick did not lose
a match but still finished fourth
in the tryouts. His failure to qual-
ify is explained by the complex
scoring system of the tournament.
The objective of the tryouts is
not to earn points. A wrestler is
awarded zero points if he scores
a fall and four points if he is
pinned. A draw is worth two points
whereas the winner of a decisionj
earns one point and the loser three.
In. Deitrick's case, he had six
points after five rounds of com-
petition as he had a draw in one{
of his matches.
After the fifth round in the
154-pound class, three wrestlers
remained with less than six points.
The round-robin tournament be-
tween the three grapplers result-
ed in the winner being a wrestler
whom Deitrick had defeated and
the second place finisher was the
one whose match with Deitrick
ended in a draw.
Deitrick can still qualify for the
final Olympic trials if he chooses
to compete in a regional tryout in
Toledo on May 22. He must fin-
ish first or second in this meet
to qualify for the finals in Au-
gust.
Spaly, Barden, Riddle and Gary
Wilcox may all go to New York
for the finals if they choose. Wil-
cox qualifies because of his second
place finish in the NCAA tourna-
ment as a Michigan wrestler.

AT IOWA:
Gymnasts
Gain Honors
Michigan's t w o outstanding
trampolinists, Gary Erwin and
Fred Sanders won top honors inr
that event last weekend at the
second annual U.S. Gymnastics
Federation National Champion-
ships at Iowa City.
Erwin, who was already crown-
ed the NCAA champion and tied
for the Big Ten crown won the
national title in the men's elite
division with a 96.9 score. Sand-
ers placed second with 95.
An Ann Arbor girl,,Maggie
House, 16, of the Ann Arbor
Gymkhana, won the women's elite
division with a score of 75 and
placed herself in contention for
next year's world competition,
according to her coach.
BOSTON M)-San Francisco's
Wilt Chamberlain floored Boston's
Clyde Lovellette with a punch in'
the nose last night, but the Celtics
floored the Warriors 124-101 and
took a two-game lead in the final
National Basketball Association
Playoffs.'
The Lovelette-Chamberlain in-
cident, at the foul line in the
fourth period, touched off a near-
riot.
Uniformed police had to clear
the floor at the Boston Garden
and Celtics center Bill Russell had
to pull coach Red Auerbach off
the floor.
Not Close
The game was a contest only1
in the opening minutes. The+
sharp-shooting Celtics, led by Sam
Jones, quickly turned it into a+
rout.
The series now shifts to San
Francisco for the next two games
of the best-of-seven series tomor-
row and Friday nights. The series
returns to Boston Sunday night if
a fifth game is needed.
The Celtics led 62-43 at half-
time. But it was the third period
that was the deciding point for
Boston. Jones.and running mate
Tommy Heinsohn led the bar-
rage as Boston outscored the visi-
tors 36-25 and grabbed a 30-
point lead at 98-68 into the final
quarter.
Sam Nets 31
Jones was the Celtics' high
scorer with 31 points. Game scor-
ing honors went to the 7-foot-one
Chamberlain, who had 32 before
leaving with about five minutes
left in the fourth period.
Heinsohn trailed in the Boston
scoring column with 20 and Tom
Sanders contributed 15.
For the Warriors, Tom Mes-
chery popped in 24 points, most
of them after the intermission.
The fourth period squabble came
about when the officials called
Lovellette for foulingChamberlain.
The two big pivot men had words
and some scuffling ensued."
Draws Blood
Then, Wilt turned his knockout
punch loose, knocking Lovellette
to his knees. Blood streamed from
the big Boston center's nose.
Both benches emptied onto the
floor and officials were vainly
trying to restore order. Police were
quickly called in to help.
Auerbach seemed the most in-
censed of all. Russell had a dif-
ficult time pulling his coach off
the court and back to the bench.
The only antion taken was the
upholding of the foul against
Lovellette. Nobody was thrown out
and Chamberlain calmly dropped
in the free throw.
The Celtics' scoring, as usual,
includedfive men in double fig-
ures with 12 points for K. C..Jones
and 10 for John Havlicek.
Lovellette completed the game
with five personals, while Cham-
berlain only had two. Only one
player fouled out in the contest
the Warrior's Al Attles.

Ford Mustang ... a car as American as its name. And one that aptly fits the dictionary definition:
small, hardy and half-wild. Conceived as a nimble, sporty car, the Mustang offers distinctive
styling in two tasty packages-Convertible and Hardtop. Both are 2-door, 4-passenger vehicles.
The price? Sporty going never camel more economically.
It took a lot of hard work and many people with creativity, imagination and drive to get the"grrrr"
to town. All kinds of skills were involved: styling, research, manufacturing, marketing, product
planning and many others were needed and will be needed in the future. For the Mustang is merely
