Earvin Johnson. The shot was nowhere
near the net, but Johnson was called for
his only foul of the night and Smith went
to the line with :00 showing.
Spartan coach Jud Heathcote saw
things differently. "I thought that there
should have been no call or an offensive
call on Smith," a quiet yet raging
Heathcote -said afterwards. "If
someone sees the replay I think they'll
see . . .well . ." Heathcote did not
finish his statement.
MEANWHILE SMITH, not sur-
prisingly, saw things differently.
"I looked up and saw that there was
only two seconds left and I knew then
that I wouldn't be able to pass the ball
so I shot it," smiled the fresman guard
who was carried off the court by his
teammates. "And. thank God I was
fouled."
Then came the almost interminable
wait for the outcome. First there was

almost the goat for Purdue, however,
when he turned the ball over on a
traveling call as the Boilermakers
trailed 61-60 with less than two minutes
to go.
But Walker and Jerry Sichting forced
Gopher guard Mark Hall into the final
turnover and Walker cruised in for
what turned out to be the winning poin-
ts.
Drake Morris added a pair of free
throws with seven seconds to secure
Purdue's fourth league victory in seven
starts.
Purdue led the entire second half, but
Minnesota struggled back to pull ahead
by one on a 20-foot jumpshot by James
Jackson with 1:8 to play.
