Page 1 -Tuesday, November 28, 1978-The Michigan Daily Blue icers drop two LITTLE BUCKEYE CELEBRATING as offens By BOB EMORY While most Michigan students were busy recuperating from the rigors of eating all the holiday food, the Michigan hockey team was busy suffering the ol' double whammy in South Bend, as the Fighting Irish swept a weekend series from the Wolverines. Judging from the scores, 7-3 on Friday night and 6-3 on Saturday night, it appeared to be no contest for Notre Dame. But Michigan coach Dan Farrell thought differently, sort of. "Well," he said, "we just played terrible on 'Friday. Nobody played well. -"On Saturday I thought we were much better. We got a real good team effort ,and I was pleased with that." THE VICTORIES moved the Irish into first place in the WCHA with a 7-2-1 conference mark, one point -ahead of Minnesota. Michigan avoided a crash into last place due to the fact that ,Colorado College and Michigan State continued to have their problems. The -Wolverines are in eighth place with a 3-7 WCHA record and 5-7 overall. Michigan was the victim of a bad break in Saturday's game, a break that might have cost it the game. Trailing 4- 3 at the twelve minute mark of the third period, veteran defenseman Tim Manning was given a ten minute misconduct for failure to wear his mouth guard while on the ice. It didn't mean that the Wolverines played short-handed for ten minutes, but they did lose the services of sputters Manning for the rest of the game and ince he is a key figure in leading the team, especially the power play, it was a coatly and needless penalty. Notre Dame scored just 20 seconds later on a short-handed goal (Notre Dame's Scott Cameron was whistled off for tripping along with Manning) and then the Irish scored again three minutes later to put the game away. According to Farrell, it is still the lack of offense that is plaguing the Wolverines. "You can't win in this league by scoring two and three goals a game," he emphasized. "Our two top scorers (Dan Lerg and Terry Cullen) are out with injuries and if we had them back we would probably double our offense." SLAPSHOTS: High scoring center Dan Lerg, in the process of working his strained knee back into shape, yesterday stepped on a puck during practice and rein jured his knee. He will definitely miss the upcoming Minnesota series and may miss more.. As a disciplinary action, Farrell has suspended forwards Mike Coffman and Bill Wheeler from practice this week and for both games against Minnesota for some frivolous off-ice activities over the weekend. WCHA Standings. Columbus cuts rowe By HENRY ENGELHARDT The Columbus cops were not on High St. after the game to protect the parking meter heads. Those had been removed already. The police expected the Ohio State students to put up the fight their foot- ball players had not. The cops stood 20 feet. apart on High St., the main student drag, protecting store fronts and catching the chill of the wind. But the students did not revolt, in fact they were rather passive. After the game they called for their cheerleaders' garters, not Michigan scalps. During the game the Ohio fans were just like any other partisan fans. They kept a constant barrage of toilet paper and buckeye nuts in the air over the stadium. All the while the Michigan fans in their midst taunted them with cheers of "Gooooo Ohio. Beeeeeat Clemson" and "Roses are Blue" while everybody agreed that Woody's game plan was meant for birds and not foot- ball players. Before the game a perky Buckeye cheerleader ended one cheer by throwing a rose into the crowd. Two Michigan fans grabbed it. The next time the roses were seen was after the game. One of the Michigan assistants came out of the dressing room with two of them. "They're for real," he said. Then the players emerged from the' dressing room. Big players, each clutching a small red rose. They passed the roses on to waiting mothers and girlfriends. These same families and friends had waited happily outside the Notre Dame locker room. They were waiting after the Michigan State game too. Russell Davis came out and some friends yelled his name. Davis had felt sick most of the day but now he looked up, smiled and winked. Don Canham came out without a rose. He carried a can of Coke. Nobody yelled his name and he drifted into the crowd, shaking An occasional hand. lyism Butch Woolfolk is on crutches now, but Saturday afternoon he was on the moon. He put his rose between his teeth. Ron' Simpkins and Curt Greer looked tired, but they posed willingly as relatives and friends took their pic- ture. It'll be tougher for Simpkins and Greer on New Year's Day than it was last Saturday. While the Ohio State of- fensive line weighed out to a 237 pound average, USC comes up at 249. USC is big and quick. They have beaten four bowl teams (Alabama, Stanford, UCLA and Notre Dame) and one of the Big Ten co-champs, Michigan State. The Trojans are led by junior tailback Charles White, Heisman Trophy candidate. He rushed for 114 yards against Michigan two Rose Bowls ago. He has over 1600 yards this year with one regularly scheduled contest remaining, against Hawaii. USC has outscored its opponents 131-6 in the second quarter. The Trojans run the ball well, they throw it well and they kick it pretty good too. Notre Dame had USC beat, everybody knew it except the Trojans. They moved the ball in that last minute with frightening proficiency and won the game on a 37-yard field goal. When the Wolverines resume prac- tice they will work on containing the Trojan attack. But if the pride the Wolverines showed coming out of the dressing room in Columbus and the subdued manner of the Ohio State fans after the game are any in- dication, getting there is more than half the battle.

This Sunday, December 3rd, will be the only day on which you can make application for tickets to the 1979 Rose Bowl clash between Michigan and Southern California. The sale, which will be conducted at Crisler Arena between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., is open to all students, faculty, and staff who do not wish to travel on any of the Alumni Association tours, which already include a game ticket. AC(COI)ING TO Ticket Manager Al Renfrew, "There is absolutely no need to start a line. There will be a ticket for everyone who wants one." In other words, you need not hurry to Crisler at 8 a.m. in order to apply for the precious ducats, which are $18 apiece. Seat arrangement will be determined when tickets are picked up in Los Angeles on Decem- ber 31st. Here, then, is the procedure you should follow for obtaining your Rose Bowl tickets: " GO TO THE south end of Crisler during the designated hours Sunday. Once there, you will fill out a coupon, half of which you will keep in order to pick up your tickets in Los Angeles. IT IS ESSENTIAL that you not lose the coupon stub, as it will be your only proof of identification to pick up the tickets. " Take your stub to the Los Angeles Sports Arena on December 31st between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Once there, you will trade the stub, in for a ticket. This process will operate onta first come/first serve basis; in other words, the first person in to redeem their stub in Los Angeles will receive the best seats, and s forth. The ticket department has laid down some groun rules, thereby making the application/pickul process more honest and efficient. Perhaps the mos important rule is that the ticket applicant must shov up in person at both Crisler and Los Angeles to clai his ticket. Thus one person cannot apply for anyone other tha himself, or pick up anyone else's ticket. This rule wi be enforced by having the applicant furnish his/he signature at both locations. It would also be advisab to bring a picture on both occasions. The Sports Arena is located at the corner of Sante Barbara and Figueroa streets in Exposition Park Los Angeles. sand Bo,-; A BOOKSTC Iniversity GRADUATE ASSISTANTSHIPS AVAILABLE in Eastern Michigan University x English Department Beginning in January, 1979.

The firing was announced by university President Willard Boyd and Athletic Director Bump Elliott following a three-hour meeting of Iowa's Board in Control of Athletics. Boyd recommended that Commings be given a position within the university as assistant to the associate director of personnel for the remainder of his contract. "I'm abdicating, and that's about it," Commings said. Asked if he would accept the position offered by Boyd, Commings said "What does it mean?" referring to the strange-sounding title. Comnmings, Iowa's MVP as a one-platoon guard on a Big Ten and Rose Bowl champion team in the mid-1950's, said he had no regrets about returningto Iowa as coach. In other conference news, it looks like Minnesota stalwart Cal Stoll may be the second Big Ten football coach to get the axe in as many days. Minnesota Athletic Director Paul Giel has asked Gopher football coach Cal Stoll for his resignation, The Minneapolis Star reported in yesterday's editions. The Star said Stoll fought Monday to retain the head coaching position he has held for seven years, but to no avail. University officials said Giel went home from work Monday without making any formal announcement on Stoll's resignation,, but didn't rule out the possibility that a statement would be forthcoming. "I would like to have at least one more year with these kids," said Stoll. "We've got a pretty good football team here for next year. It took me seven years to get this team where it is and I would like to have that year with them. "I don't know beyond that. There are only so many wars in a man. But I would sure like to fight the next one. Moving down to the South, Duke coach Mike McGee was hit with some bad news, also. Duke Athletic Director Tom Butters made it official at a Monday afternoon news conference-football Coach Mike McGee has been fired by the university. McGee was replaced as head coach by Shirley "Red" Wilson, 52, assistant athletic director. Butters called McGee "a man and a damn fine one.
