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- By HAL APPLEBAUM 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. U.S. leers' Top Russia (Continued from Page 1) was a stalwart in front of the 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. Squeeker 400-yd. MEDLEY RELAY - 1.

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.

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. Statistics TI 123--Hobbs (S) 7, Hoyles 3.

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. 49"! ,tend ,ny 4uit4 and 4Airt4 to A& P CLEANERS. BEna A.P.
