Cazzie Russell's 33 points led
e top-ranked Michigan Wolver-
es to an unspectacular opening
me win over Ball State, 92-70,
t night at Yost Field House.
Coach Dave Strack's Wolver-
es, who face highly-rated Duke
is Saturday, never trailed after
e first two minutes of the game,,
hogh they didn't break clearly
front until the second half was
11 under way.
Michigan held a 40-33 edge at
ilftime, as 12 turnovers held the
g Ten co-champs back in the
-st 20 minutes. But, as the sec-
d half progressed, the Wolver-
es continually Widened the gap,
inging it up to a peak of 26
88-62.

rack was far from ecstatic
over his team's performance, as
he expressed concern in the locker
room about the number of times
the Wolverines lost the ball. The
19 turnovers were partially a re-
sult of getting accustomed to the
game situation, and also stem
from the fast-breaking game his
team played, he explained.
"We gave the ball away too
many times," he said, "but we
won't do that again."
Strack Praises Opponents
The coach praised Ball'State
players for a spirited performance
that held them close for most of
the game, and for their scrappy
rebounding against a much bigger
Wolverine squad. The Cardinals'
tallest player was 6'4" while the
Wolverines seldom had more than
one player under that height in
the lineup at any one time.
Jim Myers, a 6'8" junior who
notched 22 against Ball State in
his first college game last year
was the sparkplug of the Wolver-
ines' rebounders, as he grabbed
12, nine in the first half. Buntin,
who fouled out with 9:13 to go in
the game, led the Wolverines with
13, but it was the wiry 6'3", 155-
pound Neal who took the game
honors in that department, pull-
ing off 15.
After the game, Strack praised
Russell for "a great all-around
offensive performance," as did the
opposing coach, Jim Hinga of the
Cardinals. "That Russell's really
phenomenal," Hinga said. "He's a
great shooter, and always seems
to make one when they need it."
Russell Ices Game
Hinga wept on to explain that
Russell went into a scoring streak
in the second half which iced the
game. "We didn't think we were
going to win, but Russell got them
away where we couldn't reach
them.
"They'll have to play a lot bet-
ter if they want to stay on top,"
said Hinga, who's seen Michigan
in the opener for three years in
a row.
The Indiana native made a
point that Strack also had been
quick to mention, when he said,
i92-7(
"They really miss Bobby Can-
trell. They need a leader on the
floor that they just don't have
right now."
Cantrell graduated last year,
and his fifth starting slot was
taken over last night by junior
John Thompson. Strack said in
the locker room that George
Pomey, currently the sixth man,
will probably be given a shot at a
starting berth before too long, al-
though Pomey hasn't played guard
all year.
"He's quick and has too much
for us to keep him on the bench,"
Strack said. Pomey netted only
six points last night but was the
game's leader in assists with five.
Russell was next twith four.
Lead Early
After moving in front 4-2, the
Wolverines were never behind,
and the Cardinals were never
closer than six after Russell
notched two free throws to make
it 23-17. Russell, the best major
college free throw shooter in the
nation who returns this year, hit
seven in a row, without missing
last night.
The gap was up to 13 at 40-27
with 3:14 to go in the half, but the
Wolverines failed to score as the
Cardinals notched six in a row on
three by Neal, a free throw and a
basket by Keith Henschen who
wound up with 16, ten points bet-
ter than his average last year.
The second half began where
the first had begun, and it wasn't
until Russell hit three straight
free throws,followed by a Buntin
layup, another Russell free throw
and a quick ten-footer off the
backboard by Russell that the
game was out of reach at 54-41.,
The Cardinals held on, but with

ND TAKES THIRD:
Alabama Tops Poll;
~'M' Retains fourth
By The Associated Press
The Michigan Wolverines main-
tained fourth place in the final
Associated Press Poll behind Ala-
bama, Arkansas and Notre Dame.
The Irish loss to the Trojans
of Southern California toppled
them from the mythical national
championship to third while the
Crimson Tide took over the pre-
mier spot.
Paul (Bear) Bryant, the Ala-
bama coach who played the other
end from the immortal Don Hut-
son for the Tide in the mid-30s,
was hibernating in the Alabama
back woods waiting for the word
on the final balloting and was not
immediately available for com-
ment.
Bryant, who now has two na-
tional championships in the last
four years at Alabama after fin-
ally coming home from way sta-
tions at Maryland, Kentucky and
Texas A&M, had maintained all
along that Alabama deserved the
top spot.
