Cazzie Russell popped in 19 of his 27 points in the second half- rally as the Wolverines picked up their tenth straight win an moved a step closer to the Big Ten championship before 17,600 hostile rooters. The Wolverines' drive with eigh minutes to go was spurred on by Bill Buntin, who was playing in the shadow of foul trouble, and Cazzie, who fired in six points a, the lead mounted to 12 at 75-63.

GEORGE POMEY A 39 51-91 39 39--78 STARTERS AILING AGAIN: Keen Labels Four 'Doubtful' By RICH GOODMAN Michigan's wrestling team roll- ed up its 30th straight dual meet victory Saturday, but Coach Cliff Keen's vision of a third-straight Big Ten title will remain hazy until after the MSU meet this Saturday. "We're only thinking about State,"rsaid Keen at practice yes- terday. "They're awful tough. Then after that meet, we'll think about the conference, and the na- tionals. Now we have four wres- tlers who are doubtful starters Saturday. Four 'Doubtfuls' Keen was referring to Rick Bay, Lee Deitrick, Chris Stowell, and Bob Spaly. "It would really be a catastro- phe if such a fine team were hindered at this stage of the sea- son," Keen added. In yesterday's practice, Bay re- Injured the knee that kept him out of competition earlier this season. Deitrick is still nursing a side in- jury that he incurred Friday, and Spaly is hampered by an ankle Injury from the Iowa meet. Stow- ell has a sore throat. Pinning Trio Bay, Stowell, and Bob Fehrs reg- Istered pins in the 23-8 Iowa vic- tory. The same trio pinned their Indiana opponents last week. Fehrs is Michigan's promising 123-pound sophomore who is un- defeated and has seven pins to his credit this year. He defeated Iowa's Tom Bowman. The most controversial match of the day was between Bob Spaly of Michigan and Roger Schilling of Iowa at the heavyweight posi- tion. Spaly lost, and it was his first defeat of the season. What made it harder to accept was the fact that Spaly had beaten Schil- ling twice before. Keen comment- ed on Spaly's loss: Ankle Injury "Actually, Bob had a recurrence of his ankle injury and was try- ing to protect it and got careless. But in all fairness you should know that he was handicapped. I don't think there's any question- he's better than Schilling." Sophomore Burt Merical wres- tled in Deitrick's place at 157 pounds and lost, 5-4, to Hawkeye Wilbur Devine. Billy Jo Draws At 137, Billy Johannesen drew Bob Rausenberger ,1-1. And at 147 Michigan's Cal Jenkins crushed Ray Davis, 5-0. Doug Horning has notched up some' impressive wins recently in the 130-pound division. The Wol- verine senior has defeated last year's third- and fourth-place NCAA finishers in his past two matches. This week, Iowa's Bill Fuller was his victim, 5-1. Fuller took third in last year's national championships. These victories mean little to Keen. "We're never satisfied. We always need improvement . .. es- pecially with our techniques and; conditioning." This weekend's meet with Mich- igan State will be the last dualI meet of the season for the Wol- verines. The Spartans are strong; they were two points behind Mich- igan in the Midlands Tournament, and many consider them Michi- gan's strongest foe. VETERANS PAVE WAY: It was a pleasing meet for us," head swimming Coach Gus Stager commented yesterday. "We won the close events, and even the ones we shouldn't have." In the two meets, the Wolverine; lost only one of 22 events, that occurring in the 200-yard butter- fly. However, Carl Robie, the var- sity record holder in this event, did not compete. Brown Tops 300 One of the most notable per- formances of the weekend was s diving exhibition by Bruce Browr off the three-meter board. In win- ning this event, Brown totaled 326.55 points. Even more impres- sive was the fact that he beat Randy Larson, last year's NCAA three-meter champion, by almost 33 points. "It was terrific diving," said div- ing mentor Dick Kimball. "Any- body who breaks 300 in this poo? is doing real fine. Only four or five diyers ever do it." "Tommy Williams had real good times," Stager pointed out. Agains, Ohio State Williams turned in a 5:08.05 clocking in the 500-yard freestyle event, and a 2:03.38 in the 200-yard individual medley. He won both events, setting new per- sonal marks in both. Good Sign "The team felt tough when they finished the meet," Stager added, "and that's a good sign." The Wolverines will now practice for the Indiana rematch, scheduled for Friday night in Bloomington. A short week later, the Western Conference Meet begins in Madi- son. More than in any of the past four years, the team is looking forward to regaining the Big Ten championship. kN THEM'DST OF PLENTY i a i 1 1 I + Illini Win team gained a shaky hold on?

Minnesota never trailed in the series final although Dean Lucier, Marty Read, and Tom Po- Ionic each had goals which tied the score. The Gophers tallied three times in the final period to sweep the series. Michigan survived the weekend with one casualty, a big one. Tom Polonic is in University Hospital as a result of an infection which he has been fighting for some time. Polonic is the "only doubt- ful starter," said Renfrew. Battle for Fourth The battle for fourth place be- tween Michigan and their arch- antagonists from East Lansing is crucial as only the first four teams are invited to the WCHA playoffs. Since the various mem- ber teams of the conference play a different number of league games, the standings are deter- mined on a percentage basis. This means with both Michigan and Michigan State having two more games, Michigan will go to the playoffs if both it and State lose two or split. If both win two, hence tying at .500 per cent, the team with the best goals-for, goals-against ratio would be given the bid. Michigan State leads in this category. This weekend Michigan plays tough Michigan Tech in a two- game series. Michigan State plays a similar series with the last-place team in the league, Colorado Col- lege. 4 t1 WCHA North Dakota Michigan Tech Minnesota MICHIGAN Michigan State Denver Standings W L T Pct;. 11 3 0 .786 V) 5 1 .656 10 6 0 .625 7 9 0 .438 5 7 0 .417 4 7 1 .375 4 C lr d - - -~- BRUCE BROWN Three Cindermen Set New Personal Records By STEVE GALL then faltered and finished third behind Coffey and Clark of No- The Big Ten Indoor Tracktre Dame with 9:04 the winning e invite you to meet the 24 SOC Candidates Contest for Championships In IM Sports Competition By RICK FEFERMAN Climaxing the winter intramural season - will be the 34th annual Open -House at the IM Building tomorrow from 6:30 to 10 p.m. The program originally was de- signed in 1931 to exhibit the new Intramural Building to the public.

' For the last month or so the Wolverines have been gaining strength with each meet in prep- aration for the defense of the coveted title they won last year. This weekend the team demon- strated its ascending power with two crushing victories over peren- nial track powers, Penn Stateand Notre Dame. While flexing their muscles with an awesome display of energy the tracksters raced to 14 meet records, seven in each encounter. Especially notable were the feats of pole-vaulter George Canamare and two-miler.Tedi Benedict. Canamare Wins Canamare, a junior jumper from Cedarhurst, N.Y., leaped to a per- sonal high, 14'6", on Friday against Penn State, and then came back to break his own record with a, 14'7" jump Monday night against Notre Dame. For the last year Canamare has been hovering around 14 feet but he finally broke the icehwith two fine leaps. Right now the New York State Schoolboy record-holder has the second best height in the confer- ence this year. Only Wes Schmidt of Wisconsin has done better, clearing 15'31/2". Benedict's Best Time The Nittany Lions were also victims of Ted Benedict's best time in the two-mile run. The lanky senior turned in a 9:12.7 winning time. Then on Monday night Benedict ran well for the first one and one-half miles but time. Assistant track coach Dave Martin felt Benedict could have done better if he hadn't run on Friday. Nevertheless, he was def- initely pleased with his senior's time on Friday as it is the best in the Big Ten so far. The Irish also saw the personal best of senior Dan Hughes, who toured the 880 in 1:51 flat, an- other best in the conference to date.aHughes who competed in the 600 last year broke the 1964 var- sity indoor record set by Ted Kelly. Reid Wins Twice Dorie Reid and Carl Ward con- tinued to dominate the sprintsas each took a first and second, re- spectively. Both raced through the 60 yards in :06.2. That puts Reid and Ward right up there in the conference performances this year, as they along withdRandy Weddle of Indiana, lead with :06.2's. Speculating over the champion- ship meet, March 5 and 6 at Champaign, Coach Martin said that Michigan was one of four contenders for the crown. He alsc gave Michigan State, Wisconsin, and Minnesota chances for the ti- tle.
