It was the first away game for the Wolverines and the first ever against Evansville. The victory was Michigan's fourth in five games. Evansville is now 2-3. The Wolverines return to the home court Wednesday night to face the Spartans of San Jose State College before the Christmas holidays. Basketball Nutty Evansville is a quote "basket- ball crazy town." Motel marquees spelled out the coming game, and newspapers have been writing on the Michigan basketball team all week; Evansville people spoke the name Bill Buntin (who is "lead- ing the Wolverines out of the basketball woods" according to one newspaper) as if it was a house- hold word. About 8,450 spectators jammed Roberts Municipal Stadium last night and many more watched via television to see the touted Buntin and company face the Purple Aces. And the Wolverines didn't dis- appoint the home crowd. The Blue were never behind. John Harris started the Wolverines off with six points in the first two and one half minutes to set Michigan into a 13-6 lead. The Blue led by as much as 12 in the first half. Evansville forward Jerry Sloan hit for eight straight points on some deadeye outcourt shooting to bring the Aces to with- in five points at halftime, 36-31. Evansville kept the pressure on Cinch Title NEW YORK-The Houston Oil- ers routed the New York Titans 44-10 yesterdayto clinch their third straight Eastern Division ti- tle in the American Football League. in the second stanza, quickly closing the gap to a basket. Lead- ing 45-43, Michigan called time- out, reshuffled the lineup, and re- took the floor with George iomey and Larry Tregoning at the guards. Pomey set up the Wolver- ines with two quick pass inter- ceptions and Buntin swished two consecutive baskets and a pair of free throws to push Michigan back into an eight point lead. Evans- ville never seriously threatened again. Michigan center Bill Buntin had a rough night under the boards but still collected 12 rebounds while netting 17 points. Buntin got stabbed in the eye by a loose Evansville finger early in the game and ended up on the wrong end of a scramble for the ball in the second half. Harris paced Michi- gan both in rebounding and in points, grabbing 21 rebounds and hitting for 20 points. Guard Bob Cantrell 'popped for 16 points. Sloan High Man Sloan ,led the Evansville quin- tet with 23. The Ace soph grabbed 17 rebounds. Again Michigan controlled the boards, nabbing a total of 49. Evansville couldn't match the Blue front line and picked off 39. The big difference, though, was in the shooting department as Michigan hit at a 47 per cent clip compared to the Purple Aces' 35 per cent. For hockey purists, the close Emory Sampson's wrist shot checking, the outstanding goal from 30 feet gave Denver a 3-2 work, the pin-point passing and overtime victory over Michigan in the execution of the plays were a the Wolverines final game of 1962 thing of beauty. in the Western Collegiate Hockey Proved Disasterous Association. *Galipeau's penalty proved dis- The Wolverines now take a asterous in the third period.

A Denver defensive lapse left John M,-Gonigal in the open. He gave a head fake and then flicked the puck into the lower left cor- ner for Michigan's first goal. Michigan almost didn't have that lead, however. Denver ap- peared to score a goal with about 30 seconds gone in the first per- iod. The goal light didn't go on. however, and Gray was laying on the puck. Three on Two Denver didn't take long in scor- ing the equalizer. The Pioneers had a three-on-two break. Denver captain Marshall Johnston shot and Gray made the save, sprawled on the ice. Then Howie Kellough batted at the rebound. Gray mir- aculously stopped it with his stick as a Michigan defenseman fell on top of him. He tried to gather the puck in, but the rubber eluded him. Kellough made no mistake this time as he lifted the puck over the outstretched Michigan defenders and into the goal. The second period was, perhaps,: the best of the game. Neither team scored and only two penal- ties were handed out. Roger Gali- peau received both of them-one at 10:01 and the other at 18:57.
