Special to The Daily
SON-Michigan came close
LA night, but the game was
al and not horseshoes, so~
Gagers recorded was a
ig Ten loss to Wisconsin.
nsin's third victory in 11
idn't come without a strug-
he cellar-dwelling Wolver-
d moved to withii three
71-68, with 45 seconds re-
r, and a one-plus-one free
oming. The first shot was
and Wisconsin's showboat
Tom Gwyn, quickly hit for

two baskets and a free throw to
douse the fire.
Michigan led the Badgers for
the first 13 minutes of the tilt, the
margin reaching seven points at
one time. Wisconsin took over at
26-25, and extended this to 40-36
at halftime.
Sparkplug guard Jon Hall kept
the Wolverines alive in the well-
played first half with six field
goals, mainly on jump shots, as
the visitors were working the ball
effectively and getting loose for
baskets.

Hall managed only a free throw
in the second half and the other
Wolverines didn't quite make up
the- difference, though captain
John Tidwell partially broke out
of a scoring slump, ending up with
20 points. Scott Maentz also chip-
ped in with a good second half,
and it was his field goal that tied'
the game at 42-42 before Gwyn
put Wisconsin ahead to stay.
However, it was sharpshooting
guard Dick Dutrisac who really
hurt Michigan as he pumped in
five straight jump shots from the

duel.
Dutrisac's play combined with
the steady hand of Tom Hugh-
banks, who added 17 points to the
winning cause and guided the
Badgers.
The final score was the widest
margin either team attained all
night, and Michigan Coach Dave
Strack had some easy explana-
tions for it.
"As usual, we outrebounded
them (46-45) but we couldn't hit
the key shots, missing several
easy ones. We would work the ball
in for a layup against their loose
defense and someone would miss
or else lose the ball."
Loose Play
The dejected coach pointed out
that although Wisconsin was slop-
py, at times Michigan was worse,
especially when it hurt the most.
"It was truly a frustrating experi-
ence," Strack said, undoubtedly
thinking that this was the fourth
straight loss that could easily have
gone the other way.
Strack also mentioned a five-
minute dry spell in the first half
as hurting the team when the of-
fense seemed to be clicking. This
enabled Wisconsin to catch up.
The coach was bothered about the
frigid trend which has appeared in
just about every game, at one time
or another.
Looking at the statistics, the
final difference lies in shooting,
where Wisconsin shot .398 to .350
for Michigan and hit 14-17 free
throws against the losers' 12-22.
Strack was still not discouraged.
as he prepared to ready his team
for the final two home games
against also-rans Minnesota and
Illinois this weekend, in which
Michigan will have its last chance
to climb from the conference
depths.
Backing up Tidwell were Hall1
and Tom Cole with 13 and Maentz
with 11.E

series analyzing Michigan's chances
in the upcoming Big Ten wrestling
meet.)
By TOM WEBBER
It seems improbable that one
could find a Michigan coach with
more problems than Dave Strack,
but a talk with wrestling mentor
Cliff Keen indicates that this is
not the case.
Keen is possessed with a strong
desire and a definite problem. His!
desire is to capture his 11th con-'
ference championship and second
in arow.
His problem? Why, Michigan
State, of course.
The Spartans handed the Wol-
verines their only dual meet loss
of the season and have ten wres-
tlers who are capable of scoring
points in the Conference meet. Or1
rather, as Keen puts it, they have
13 good men, but can use only 10
of them.,
Ten Man Limit
Under Big Ten rules, a team
can only enter ten men, but can
place them in any weights. In
other words a team could enter all'
ten men in one weight if it so de-
sired.
What Keen is hoping for is that
the good wrestlers around the cir-
cuit will be placed in weights
which do not coincide with Mich-
igan's best wrestlers. For instance,
Keen would like to see Bob Mar-
shall of Purdue wrestle in a weight
different from Dennis Fitzgerald,
and Don Corriere. This would
;seemingly deprive Michigan State
of a potential weight champion.
Ironically it is the lower weights
which could tell whether or not
the Wolverines can cop the crown..
Ironic because Michigan can do
nothing about it. These weights,
are where Michigan, Sta'te's big-
gest strength lies and the Wolver-

I

ines will have to leave it up to
the other teams to stop the Spar-
tans.
Michigan's two low weight men,
Willard Root, 115-lb. and Nick Ar-
melagos, 123-lb., are not expected
to add many points. Root has
won only three matches in his
varsity career and Armelagos nev-
er wrestled before this year,
Tough Competition
At 130-lbs. Keen has an out-
standing wrestler in Fritz Keller-
man, last year's Big Ten champ
at 137-lbs. -and a member of they
nation's third all-American wres-
tling team. The only problem is
that both the 130 and the 137-1b.
divisions are chock full of good
wrestlers.
This list includes Tom Huff of
Iowa, who happens to be a mem-
her of the nation's first team, and
who has defeated Kellerman once
this year. Hopefully, Huff will not
wrestle in the same division as
Kellerman.
Others in this weight class in-
clude Norm Young of Michigan
State an Dick Zboray of Indiana,
both finalists last year, and Jerry
Hoke, also of Michigan State.
As a sophomore last year, Kel-
lerman surprised everybody by
emerging a conference champ.
This year he will be hard pressed
to repeat.
Michigan's other men at this
weight are Wilfried Hildebrandt,
John Zauner and Mel Nosanchuk.
Hildebrandt has shown the best
performances this year and Keen
has temporarily given him the nod
for the conference meet.
To Keen's distress, however,
there appears to be too many good
wrestlers in the lower four weights
for him to count on many more
points than what Kellerman can
provide.

Under the facade of press re-

choice to win its third consecutive
Big Ten indoor title, this weekend,
are buried some seemingly un-
recognized problems.
These problems are concentrated
in the field events.I

event in a conference meet. But
the fact is, with the possible ex-
ception of the pole vault, Michi-
gan could also-go unplaced in the
field events next weekend at
Champaign.
Vault Strength
On the strength of sophomores
Rod Denhardt and Steve Overton,
the Wolverines seem, assured of
placing two men in the pole vault,
and even possibly grabbing a vic-
tory.
Last Saturday night in the
Michigan Open Denhardt and
Overton both cleared 13'8" to tie
for first. The vaults were the best
performances ever for both, and
even without improvement the
height should be enough to gather
some points.
The man Denhardt and Overton
will have to beat to take -the top
money is-.Purdue's Mike Johnson,
who has cleared 14'4" this winter.
Another contender will be Michi-
gan State's Bill Alcorn, who earlier
defeated both Denhardt and Over-
ton in a dual meet' at a height of
13'7". Roger -Nelson, of Northwest-
ern, has cleared 13'4" and may
also be in the picture.
In the shot put it appears on
paper that Michigan's defending
outdoor champion, Ray Locke
(55'%"), would be a cinch for
points. But, of late, Locke has been
performing below his capabilities.
The favorite at Champaign. will
no doubt be Indiana's sophomore
sensation Tom Heifert, who has
already broken the all-time Hoos-
ier record with a put of 56'7"
against Notre Dame.
Others with' a chance to keep
Locke out of the point scroing are
Illinois' Ralph Brown (53'91/4"),
Wisconsin's Earl Ezerins (51'61/2"),
Dave Cox, of Northwestern (51'2")
and Purdue's Dave Edelman (50'-
-2").
Like Locke, Michigan's oft-in-
jured broad jumper Les Bird pre-
sents a ticklish situation in that
event. Bird holds the Michigan
record at 24'101/4", set in his soph-
omore year. But lately he has
come nowhere near that mark.
1uini Champ
Bird's best leap this year has
been a 23'8 " effort last Saturday
night in the Michigan Open. He'll
need to go a foot better, however,
if he expects to defeat conference
champion Paul Foreman from Illi-
nois, who has already done 24'7"
this winter.
Bird, will also have to contend
with George Taylor of Illinois (23'-
10"), Indiana's Ted Jackson (23'-
18"), and Michigan State's Sonny
Akpata (23'7").
The Wolverines' weakest event
seems to be the high jump, where
sophomore Jerry Gerich seems the
only point possibility. His 6'31"
best, however, can hardly match
Iowa sophomore Wes Sidney (6'-
8%").
