SUNDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1961 THE MICHIGAN DAILY WITH SECOND HALF DRIVE: OVER HOFSTRA: Butler Edges Past 'MS69-61 Sophomores Pace BO PAGE SE' Drl o , OK S tip a a a £ By TOM WEBBER Special To The Daily INDIANAPOLIS-The Michigan basketball team battled hard be- hind a tight zone defense, but Butler's outside passing Jeff Blue's tactics under the board eventual- ly pushed the Bulldogs to a 69- 61 victory before a large partisan crowd. The Wolverines will try to get back on the win trail tomorrow night at home after losing twice on the road. Denver, better known for its hockey team, will provide the opposition. Michigan held the speedy Bull- dogs to a stand-off for the first, thirty minutes of play, but hot shooting Tom Bowman sandwiched two free throws by Blue with four jumpers from the circle to pro- vide Butler with the impetus for a final surge. Zone Defense The Wolverines used the zone defense yfor the first time this year, hoping to catch the usually fast breaking Bulldogs surprised. For the most part it worked, ex- cept for the presence of the Bull- dog's Bowman. Blue was a tyrant under the boards. He used his 6-6 frame and a weight advantage on the Wolverine's John Harris to snatch 23 rebounds and score eight bask- ets, all of them layups or tip-ins. He also drew eight Wolverine fouls and hit seven for thirteen free throws. His rebounds were almost half the Bulldog's 51. And when Butler couldn't get the ball, in the Blue, Bowman would step back and hit on his patented jump shot. He hit on ten, Best Shooter His performance left Tom Jor- genson, Michigan assistant coach, to remark, "I think he's the best shooter I've ever seen." Harris played a strong game under the boards for the Wolver- ines. He blocked several shots (in- cluding a Bowman jumper) and led the team in rebounds with 14, but Blue had too much weight and strength. Harris also scored 17 points as Michigan's second high scorer. John Oosterbaan once again ledj the scoring with 26. the Michigan high for the year. He also added 12 rebounds to help Michigan4 match the Bulldogs on the boards. Oosterbaan hit on ten for eighteen1 from the floor. Most of his buck- ets came off a double stream which his teammates set up at the free throw line.- Singles Out After the game Coach Dave Strack singled out the play of his two forecourtmen, Harris and Oos- terbaan, but also indicated he was happy with the play of his whole team. "I thought we played a good game," he said, "the zone both- ered them a lot, but they were better than I thought from the outside." Strack drew rounds of jeers from the crowd for some protests about the officiating. He was par- ticularly displeased about losing a time-out in the second half because of an injury to Doug Her- ner. Usual procedure is that if a man is injured and replaced im- mediately no time-out is charg- :11 -Daily-Ed Langs JUMP SHOT-Michgian's John Harris, shown here firing away against Ball State in Ann Arbor last week, scored 17 points last night as the Wolverines lost a tough one to Butler, 69-61. ie Big Ten Teams Beat Six INon-Confere nce Foes JOHN OOSTERBAAN . . . leads cagers - By The Associated Press WINSTON-SALEM-Ohio State, the nation's top-ranked basket- ball team, gained the upper hand late in the first half and went on a second half scoring spree to crush third-ranked Wake Forest 84-62. Wake Forest led in the early minutes of the game and kept things close throughout the first half, which ended with the Buck- eyes leading 37-31. However, led by All-America Jerry Lucas, who scored 23 points, and John Havlicek, the Bucks broke the game open early in the second half. At one stage, Ohio State scored 13 points in about a minute and a half while hold- ing the Deacons scoreless. Wake Forest's 6-8 star Len Chappell, guarded tenaciously by Havelicek, wound up with 15 points. * * * LAFAYETTE-Sophomore Guard Mel Garland scored 26 points to lead Purdue and All-America Terry Dischinger to a run-away 91-66 victory over Detroit. M c hg EAST LANSING - Michigan State rolled past Tulsa 90-70 for its second straight non-conference win of the season.

COLUMBIA - Missouri hit 36 of 40 free throws in beating North- western 84-69, leading all the way from the early minutes. The Tigers built a 39-29 half- time lead and Northwestern never got closer than six points in the second half. MINNEAPOLIS -- Minnesota used a stall and some aggressive play to post a come-from-behind 70-56 victory over Southern Methodist. Led by their big front line of forwards Eric Magdanz and Ray; Cronk and center Tom McGrann, the Gophers surged from a 34-30 halftime deficit to finally take the lead at 45-44 early in the second half. . * * NORMAN-Illinois took charge late in the first half and defeated Oklahoma 72-60. Oklahoma got a 26-point per- formance from Stan Morrison and held an eight point margin over the invading Big Ten team once in the first half. s* # IOWA CITY - Iowa sharpened ed up its game for the opening of the home basketball season and defeated Miami of Ohio 75- 55 on the 26-point shooting of Don Nelson. Nelson worked from the inside and teammate Andy Hankins fired from the outside to pace the Hawkeye attack, which atoned for the 65-59 defeat Iowa suffered in its first game of the season at Evansville, Ind., last week. Hank- ins got 17 points. GUILD HOUSE 802 Monroe CAROLING AND HANGING OF THE GREENS ALL INVITED Meet 7 P.M. at Guild House for Caroling. Return for festivities and holiday refreshments ed, but not this time. "We could have used that time-out later," Strack said. And indeed they might have, for the margin was only five points until the Bulldogs scored four points with 36 seconds left. The Jump shot at the buzzer by Tom Cole tied the score at 31- all after the Wolverines had been a couple of points behind for most of the first half. They con- tinued to scrap the Bulldogs un- til Bowman broke a 46-46 tie with 10 minutes left. Oosterbaan tied it up again with a layup, off the screen, but Bowman hit his sec- ond shot and Blue's free throw put Butler four points ahead.
