By DAVE COOK
Michigan's hockey team looked
ward grimly to powerful Denver
er dropping a 4-3 overtime deci-
n yesterday afternoon to Min-
sota's battling Gophers.
The first of the two-game series
11 be tomorrow night at 8 at the
)_eum.
Gopher winger Myron Grafstrom
anned the Wolverines ,with a
oft drive past goalie Jim Coyle
;er only 16 seconds of sudden-
ath overtime.
Tied Up'
[ed by right wing Jerry Kolb
d center "Red" Berenson4 Mich-
in's up-and-down icers had tied
: contest at 3-3 with less than
ur minutes to go and were buzz-
g the Minnesota net as regula-
n time ran out. Grafstrom's
al came before the Wolverines
uld gain possession of the puck
the overtime period.
Dependable Steve Bochen sent
e Wolverines off to a 1-0 lead at
55 in the opening stanza when
pushed the puck past Gopher
ale Chuck Steinweg out of a
almouth scramble.
Later in the period, Steniweg
vc a 50-footer by defenseman
tch Neilsen with Kolb standing
st outside the crease.
Moments later Steinweg fanned
a hard drve off the stick of
Dale MacDonald, but the puck
skidded past the open corner.
The Minnesota storm broke
with four minutes gone in the
second period and when the buz-
zer sounded, the visitors were
ahead 3-2.
However, Kolb got the first of
his two goals at 3:01 of the middle
stanza to give the Wolverines a
2-goal lead.
Less than a minute later Minne-
sota jumped into the scoring col-
umn. Defenseman Jerry Westby
led a three-on-two Gopher break,
and finding both wings covered, he
drilled a hard 30-footer into the
lower right-hand corner of the
Michigan net.
The Maize and Blue seemed te
buckle at this point and intensive
pressure by the Gophers enabled
Rog Rovick to sift through the
defense and beat Coyle with a
screened 15-footer to tie the score.
Freak Goal
With 20 seconds left in the
period, Minnesota took the lead
on a freak goal. A rising 45-foot
shot by left wing Larry Smith
sailed over Coyle's head into the
protective screen in back of the
net, bounced back, hit the Wol-
verine netminder's shoulder and
dropper into the net to put the
Gophers ahead.
In the third period neither team
mounted a serious offensive threat
until Michigan staged a despera-
tion drive with about five minutes
left.
Kolb ducked under a check deep
in the Minnesota zone, and cen-
tered the puck to left wing Joe
Lunghamer, whose shot hit a de-

fenseman. Berenson picked up the
loose puck and returned the puck
to Kolb at the goalmouth, who
swept it past Steinweg.
Before the period had run out,
center Bob White came close with
a shot from a goalmouth scramble,
and Berenson's 40-foot blue went
over the Minnesota net.
First Rush
On the first Minnesota rush in
the overtime period, center Jerry
Melynchuk forced Coyle to hit
the ice on a hard drive from the
right face-off circle. The Michigan
goalie was helpless as Graftstrom
lifted the rebound into the far
corner of the net.
The loss dropped the Wolverines:
back to the .500 mark in league
play with four games left, and
made a split with Denver impera-
tive if they are to make the play-
offs.

American's net.
Also yesterday David Jenkins,
of Colorado Springs, Colo., winner
of one of the two gold medals the
United States has picked up so
far, announced he was retiring
from figure skating to devote full
time to studying medicine at
Western Reserve in Cleveland.
Special To The Daily
COLUMBUS-Michigan thwart-
ed a determined bid by Ohio State
by winning two of the final three
events to gain a 53-51 decision be-
fore a capacity crowd of 2,000 fans
in the Buckeye's medieval pool.
With only the 440-yd. freestyle,
the breastroke, and the 400-yd.
freestyle relay remaining the
Buckeyes led the Wolverines 39-35.
But a Michigan slam by Bill
Darnton and Cindy Morrow put the
defending Big Ten and N.C.A.A.
champion Wolverines ahead by
three points, and then Ron Clark,
a heavy favorite, and Ken Ware
finished first and third respectively
in the 200-yd. breastroke to give
Michigan a 49-43 lead and clinch
a victory.
The Buckeyes won the final and
anti-climactic freestyle relay to
narrow the final margin to two
points.
Last Meet
The meet was the last dual meet
of the season and Michigan fin-
ish the schedule with an 8-1 rec-
ord, losing only to Indiana.
The Wolverines now return to
Ann Arbor to host the Big Ten
championships which begin Thurs-
day and run through Saturday
night.
The visitors, admittedly some-
what tired after a, week of hard
work following last Saturday's
disappointing loss to Indiana,
started slowly and continued that
way through most of the meet.
It was a close meet however as
the two squads were never sepa-
rated by more than five points un-
til the Wolverines built up their
decisive margin in the breastroke.
Ohio jumped to an early 16-14
lead, winning the 400-yd, medley
relay, the 220-yd. freestyle (Chuck
Bechtel), and took a second in the
50-yd. freestyle.
The two teams traded positions'
when Fred Wolf and Chuck Bab-
cock slammed the 200-yd. indi-'
vidual medley. Michigan then led,
22-1'.
The Ohioans jumped back into
a two point lead as Sam Hall won
the three-meter diving, but the
Wolverines quickly regained their
five point advantage when Dave
Gillanders won the 200-yd. but-
terfly.
Hosts Shocked
Then however the hosts shocked
the heavily favored Michigan team
by slamming the 100-yd. freestyle
to take a 2 point lead, 34-32.
In the hundred, Bill VanHorn
and Bechtel defeated favored
Frank Legaki and Carl Woolley
who ran into trouble on the turns
in the dimly lit Ohio Natatorium.
The same problem plagued the
Wolverines in the 200-yd. back-
stroke when John Smith, leading
through the first 150 yds. missed
two turns and finished a foot be-
hind Ohio's Tom Murray.
Smith Disqualified
Smith was subsequently dis-
qualified, on a disputed call, for
rolling on his side when making
one of these turns.
Alex Gaxiola, who finished
third, was awarded second, and
Ohio led for the last time, 39-36.
In the decisive 440, Ohio's Char-
ley Stagman sprinted to the lead
but soon faded and finished a
badly beaten third to Darnton and
Morrow.
Darnton covered the distance in
4:36.1, beating Morrow by 11 sec-
Onds and Stagman by 17.
Clark was in little trouble and
easily disposed Of two challenges
by Ohio's Tom Kovac in the 200
yard breastroke. Clark and Kovacs
finished well in front of third place
Ken Ware, who's one point for
third clinched the meet for the
Wolverines.

intermission.
Michigan fell behind, 36-33, in
the opening moments of the sec-
ond half but Tidwell hit on a pair'
of 10-foot jumps to get his team
back in the game.
Other than one instance when
State went ahead 52-48, Michigan
was never in danger of falling
apart in the second stanza as it
had been doing all year.
Tidwell, who put Michigan into
the lead a dozen other times earlier
in the game, gave the Wolves a
lead they never relinquished with
6:01 remaining when his basket
made the score 62-61.
Michigan held on precariously
Iwith a slow-moving offense. State
helped the cause as its two top
scorers-Walker and Lance Olson
-fouled out in the wanning mo-
ments.

EAST LANSING -- Michigan
State's wrestlers showed no respect
for Michigan's nine-meet winning
streak and handed the Wolverines
a 14-11 setback yesterday before
1,000 observers in the new Intra-
mural Arena.
George Hobbs' 7-3 victory over
Mike Hoyles at 123 pounds and
Duane Wohlfert's 4-1 decision over
Jim Blaker at 147 triggered the
Spartan's unexpected victory.
State won all but one of the:
first five bouts for a nearly in-i
surmountable 12-3 lead. Michi-
gan's 167-pound Dennis Fitzgerald
and 177-pound Karl Fink took de-
cisions to close out their dual
meet season with undefeated rec-
ords.
Needing a decision triumph
against undefeated Spartan John
Baum to salvage. a tie for the
Maize and Blue, heavyweight Fred
Olin gave the State fans anxious
moments before settling for a 3-3
draw.
In this match, the Michigan
State grappler looked fiat. He
made little offensive effort after
getting a takedown early in the
first period. He lost a victory when
penalized one point for stalling in
the last period.
Responsibility for winning to
pull Michigan up into a tie should
not have fallen on Olm.
Hoyles, holder of an 8-0-1 sea-
son mark going into his match
with Hobbs, faded after the first
period. Hobbs, wrestling as com-
petently as his 8-1-1 record indi-
cated he would, got better as
Hoyles tired, and won going away.
Wohlfert's career as a college
wrestler has benefitted much from
Blaker. The Spartan 147-pounder
won only three matches last sea-
son, one of them over Blaker, and
had lost in his two appearances
this year priod to yesterday.
Wohlfert got a takedown with
four seconds to go in the opening
period and went on from there.
Fitzgerald made his season rec-
ord 9-0-0 and 2-year career mark
13-0-2 in dual meets by taking
an easy 8-2 decision from Roger
Tazenner.,Fitzgerald will be hard
to stop on Big Ten weekend if he
keeps wrestling as well as he has
this season.
Fink scored a reversal and a
takedown in the second period to
hang a 5-2 decision on Mike Sen-
zig. This victory made Fink's sea-
son record 9-2.
Michigan's other winner was
Fritz Kellerman at 137, who took'
care of David James, 4-3, thanks
to a takedown with 20 seconds
left. James' three points all came
on escapes.
State's Norman Young fashioned
a 4-1 triumph over Ambi Wilbanks
in a 130-pound bout marked by
very little action.
Dick Fronczak at 157 lost to a
Big Ten opponent for the only
time this season. He did not look
especially impressive as he took a
6-1 defeat frm Bob Moser.

latter race, he and teammate Dick
Cephas ran side by side until the
last hurdle where Cephas edged
ahead to win by inches.
Sprinter Tom Robinson showed,
he was ready for the Big Ten
meet, posting winning times of
:06.2 in the 60 and :30.5 in the
300. The best individual Michigan
performance of the evening was
an approximate 9:21 clocking by
Dick Schwartz in the 2-mile run.
One of the best of the individual
performances of the evening was
good for only a second. Schwartz
ran a 9:21--a full ten-seconds be-
low his previous mark-only to be
caught at the wire by the late
drive of MSU captain Bob Lake.
Michigan's Big Ten broadjump
champion Les Bird was forced to
drop out of his event after suffer-
ing a minor leg injury. However,
a trainer's checkup indicated that
he would probably be ready for the
conference meet next weekend.
