IMPORTED and DOMESTIC BEER and WINEj the team played it worst ball of the season in the opening minutes of the first half. "They were a study in slow motion." he said, referring to the first part of the game. He attributed this to a let- down after playing so well against Butler and not winning last Satur- day night. Denver Balked The Michigan errors in the open- ing minutes were not taken full advantage of by Denver. Despite losing the ball several times with- out scoring, Michigan was only down ten points at Denver's larg- est lead. The Wolverines moved from a 24-14 deficit to within three points of Denver at 24-21. Cantrell started the comeback with two points, making the score 24-16.

Denver Scores Twice Denver picked up two fast bas- kets before Cantrell scored a two pointer and Oosterbaan dumped in two shots. This pegged the score at 28-27 with Denver leading. Oosterbaan sandwiched a jump shot in between two Pioneer bas- kets which put the Wolverines three points back. Bob Brown narrowed the Denver lead to one point with a set shot from the corner with 27 seconds left in the half. Moments later, after the halftime buzzer had sounded, he lay on the court hold- ing his leg. He had to be helped into the dressing room. Coach Strack said after the game that Brown had a badly sprained ankle. His possible loss for any number of games would hurt the Wolverines who need strong and tough bench strength. Coach Strack said. Atthe 19th Hole with Fred Steinhardt Sports Questions-1961?? As several sporting friends of mine would say en Francals JoyeuxN !
