But this year it is not first by the first of January, like last year's signs at Yost Field House. This season it's first in the na- tional basketball ratings by the first of December, before the Michigan Wolverines ever play a game. o As one national magazine has it, "Mighty Michigan is ol top' even before it begins and has to beat down the challenge of the whole league." Last year's co-champions of the Big Ten with Ohio State and a third-place finisher in the na- tional tournament, the Wolverines and Coach Dave Strack look to an improved season. Improvement "Every aspect of our team should be better," he said yester- day. "Every player has improved and we should be tougher, smarter and better defensively." The nazional prominence doesn't bother Strack-"After all, we don't fool anybody. We've got good pros- pects and nobody can disagree with that." But Strack, now in his fifth season as head coach, is quick to point out that "the ratings won't affect our play. We proved last year that we can perform under pressure, and this year everyone-both the coaches and players-will be used to the pres- sure."t Bill and Cazzie The ability of the two Wolverine1 All-Americans, Bill Buntin and Cazzie Russell, to rise to any oc- casion was well proven last year as the two led the team all the, way to the semi-finals of the NCAA tournament before being1 eliminated by Duke. Buntin was chosen the most valuable player in the NCAA re- gional at Minnesota, and Russell,1 despite a painful ankle injury, was chosen on the all-star squad at the finals in Kansas City. Buntin and Russell, of course,, form the nucleus of the Michigan squad, but as' Strack points out, "we've got 10 kids who are all fine players." Tregoning and Darden Return Captain Larry Tregoning and Oliver Darden return as starting forwards, and the guard slot oc- cupied by Bob Cantrell last year remains the only questionable starting position. "We're starting this season more or less where we left off last year," S.rack explained in his office. By that he means that John Clawson has the first crack at the fifth starting spot. Clawson finished last season as the second guard replacement, be- hind now-graduated Doug Herner. He has been working out with the first team through the first 10 days of practice this year. Clawson's potential as a shooter and his 6'4" height give him the first crack, butthe coach is very pleased with both junior John Thompson and senior Tom Lud- wig. "I think that the competition we have for positions is a very, healthy thing," Strack points out I "Actually we're flexible at every position. Craig Dill, George Pomey and Jimmy Meyers have all looked very good so far and they'll all help out the ball club. Naturally, we'll always build around Buntin and Russell, but every player' knows that he can't slump very long and not be replaced." Strack is quite pleased with Dill's progress this season. "He's certainly improved already, and should get even better as the season progresses, he says re- ferring to the 6'10" sophomore. "He's been shooting very well, he's fast, and looks like he'll be able to do a good job under the boards." The team has been practicing since Oct. 15, and Strack is quite happy with the way it has gone.

MICHIGAN STANDOUT CAZZIE RUSSELL scores one of the 260 field goals which he put through as a sophomore last season. Russell, who averaged nearly 25 points per game last year; will play a major role in the Wolverines' bid for a second con- secutive Big Ten championship.

' I THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN YOUNG DEMOCRATIC CLUB presents: JOSH WHI noted folksinger and PRF. |ERPRC F.GLDMAN Princeton University Presidential Advisor "No, I don't have any secret formula," commented last week's esoteric Grid Picks winner, W. J. Rollman of 816 Hill St. in an exclusive phone interview early this morning. "I just remember to circle only one team, and I have generally found it to be true that either the home or the visiting team wins," added the elated winner candidly. Rollman also finds it helpful to turn in his entry blank by midnight Friday since late entry blanks are pasted on the Sports Staff bulletin board and thus subjected to ridicule by various members of the staff. Though he never won first prize in the Irish Sweepstakes, Rollman concedes that his two tickets to the Michigan Theatre, now showing "Kisses For My President," is far better because it limits his tax worries.
