PIONEERS TALL Y WITH JUST 1 SECONDS LEFT: The Michigan Daily-Saturday, November 18, 1978-Page 1T Denver By BILLY SAHN A tough break. After battling back from a 5-3 deficit early in the ,third period, the Michigan icers finally succumbed to the Denver Pioneers by a score of 6-5. WITH 17 SECONDS left in the final period, left winger Vince Magnan grabbed a loose puck from Michigan's John Blum right after a face-off, and challenged Wolverine goalie Rudi Varvari on a one- on-one situation. Unassisted, Magnan banged the puck into the Wolverine net for his third score of the game, giving the Pioneer a hat trick. "We made a bad pass in a neutral zone," said a displeased Michigan coach Dan Farrell. MAGNAN'S WINNING goal came after Michigan appeared to have gained the necessary momentum for victory. Going into the third period, with Denver ahead, 4-3, right winger Darrell Morrow dragged Varvari out of his net as Wolverine defenseman Brian Lundberg attempted to block the shot. However, the shot got by Varvari, as Morrow fired the puck from the goaltender's left side, scoring on a power play at 2:11. But Michigan hung tough, anl Jeff Tessier scored his second goal of the night with assists from Dennis May and Jeff Mars. Tessier hooked his shot around Denver's netminder Scott Robinson-at 2:48. THE LINE of Tessier, Mars and May continued to S T 7b- ru nips niv pressure Robinson during Michigan's last power play of the night, as Andy Hill sat in the Pioneer penalty, box. Switching lines, Michigan continued to knock at Robinson's door. The pressure soon paid off as defenseman Tim Manning, after scrambling with the puck, knocked it in at 13:58. Manning's shot, which came from just outside the crease on Robinson's left side, tied up the game at 5 apiece. Michigan challenged the top-rated Pioneers throughout the night. "They're a good skating team," said Farrell. Yet, despite the display of skill from Denver as well as Michigan, it was a hard-hitting, tough game. SUCH WAS THE case when, at 16:31 in the third period, freshman center Murray Eaves gave the crowd a scare as .he laid on his back. Luckily for Michigan, who is missing the services of its top players, centers Terry Cullen and Dan Lerg, it was just a nose bleed. The Wolverines got off to a quick start in the first period as John Olver scored at 2:48. Olver, sliding past Robinson's left side, banged a forehand shot into the nets. Denver, 'however, came right back, as Magnan scored his first goal of the night on a power play. With the players jammed in front of Varvari's crease, the Pioneer dropped the puck iniat 4:26. ie, 6-5 YET, THE SEE-SAW battle continued, as Wolverine's Mark Miller's skate was in the right place at the right time. Miller knocked in a shot from the right point, deflecting Eaves' shot flew into the net. The power play score came at 6:36. Then came Denver's chance once again, as Magnan scored his second goal of the game, at 12:23. Similar to Denver's first score, Magnan shot the puck through the crpwd of players in front of Michigan's goal. Subsequently, Denver took the lead in the second period as Greg Woods scored at 4:38 on a shot from mid-point. Tessier's first goal of the night came on a slap shot from inside the blue line at 11:54. With the score tied at 3-3, Pioneer Mark Davidson scored at 14:30, on, a power play goal. The sweep- around goal gave Denver a 4-3 lead at the end of the second period.

The long-awaited report, expected to be released next week, was drafted by a special task force in HEW's Office for Civil Rights. While the proposals would necessitate equal per-capita spending for scholarships, recruiting and other financially measurable items, they would not mandate dollar-for-dollar spending, the Post said. There would be leeway for spending disparities, provided they result from"sex-neutral" factors and don't have a negative effect on the oppor- tunities of either sex. Significantly, the paper said, the proposals cite college football costs as an example of spending disparities that might be defensible. -AP Spikers ousted from regionals Michigan's volleyball team ended a highly successful season on a sour note Thursday night, as they were eliminated from the MAIAW regional tournament in the quarterfinal round.
