They nearly did. Sophomore center Bill Buntin, the team's lead- ing scorer and rebounder, wrench- ed his right knee in a collision under the basket in an 83-70 loss to Detroit and missed practice yes- terday. Buntin was in.good spirits after the game, however, and hoped to be ready to face Michigan State in a regionally televised game from East Lansing at 4:30 p.m. tomor- row. Losing Streak Coach Dave Strack's Wolverines, looking heavy-legged after a week's layoff at the semester break, shot a wretched 28 per cent against Detroit and dropped their third straight game and their fourth in fourteen starts. The Titans are 9-9. Strack had no sooner pronounc- ed ailing forward John Harris fit to start his first game in more than a month than Buntin replac- ed him on the injured list. Old Springs Back Playing with his left ankle taped lightly, Harris jumped well enough to lead both teams with 17 re- bounds, including 12 in the second half. His 15 points tied him with guard Bob Cantrell in the runner- up spot for Michigan.. Buntin led Michigan with 16 points despite being boxed repeat- edly away from the basket by De- troit's 6'5" junior forward-center Dick Dzik, and whoever else hap- pened to be nearby. Dzik, one of only four upper- classmen on the Titans' 15-man squad, led both teams with 23 points, hitting on 9 of 16 attempts from the floor. He also outre- bound the 6'7", 232-lb. Buntin, 13- 12. Gets Clobbered With Michigan down, 69-60, and 7:15 left in the game, Buntin hook- ed short and then collided with Harris, who was shoved in aI scramble under the basket. Buntin crumpled to the floor as Detroit cleared the boards and raced the, ball downcourt. While Detroit co-captain Harri- son Munson was netting a jump shot, his only points of the game, Michigan trainer Jim Hunt jump- ed off the bench to check Buntin, lying motionless at the other end of the court. Buntin limped off the floor aft- er several minutes and took Michi- gan's chances with him. Detroit' went into a semi-stall and never was in trouble afterward.{ Come Close Once Minutes before Buntin went off, Michigan had gathered itself for' its only challenge of the game, closing a 16-point gap to one point, 59-58, on a jump shot by Harris with 9:5 Sleft. The major impetus was a three- minute spurt during which the Wolverines outscored the Titans, 12-0, with help from Buntin, Can- trell and Harris. Detroit quickly regained its poise, however, and boosted its lead back up to the same 13-point margin it held almost from the start. The Titans were presented with a 14-1lead when the Wolver- ines managed to go nearly six minutes without a field goal. Can- trell finally hit a jumper with 5:43 gone. Rebounds, Anyway Buntin, Harris and Captain Tom Cole gave the Wolverines a 7 1-44 Taped Hopes Yesterday, Dave Strack watched his charges as they diligen prepared for Michigan State's full court and zone defenses, and, usual, shouted words of encouragement or grimaced and kicked t floor when an assignment was missed, but his thoughts were prc ably wandering. Nobody would have blamed him if they were, up in the dressing room trainer Jim Hunt was busy trying to tape Michigan's Big Ten basketball hopes. -Daly-Ed Langs TIED UP-Sophomore Larry Tregoning effectively bottles up Detroit's Dick Dzik (50) in Wednesday night's 83-70 loss to the Titans. Forming their own version of a blockade around Dzik are Wolverines John Harris (33), George Pomey (44), and Tom Cole (31). A graceful fountain of precious metal embracing an exquisite fiery diamond of fine quality. An inspired styling for someone Who appreciates the unique and the eautiful. advantage in rebounding, but the team's shooting (Strack disgusted- ly called it a "sparkling" 28.4 per cent) more than made up for it. The Titans, normally not a hot- shooting team, burned Michigan with 47.8 per cent in this one. thanks to a Michigan defense which Strack referred to variously as "a step slow," "half-speed" and "rotten." Strack commented afterwards that the Titans, "played a pretty strong game," but he conceded, "we weren't as ready to play as we should have been. We Just weren't sharp."
