The Michi an Daily-Sunday, January 7, 1979-Page 11- ROOKIE GOALIE BRIGHT SPOT IN 3-0 LOSS Icers listless in encore By BOB EMORY It was more of the same old Min- nesota music for the Michigan icers last night. Second period blues. For the second night in a row the Gophers erup- ted for all the goals they needed in the second stanza and went on to shut out the Wolverines, 3-0, in front of a sparse Yost Arena crowd of 3,626. The victory-and weekend sweep-kept the No. 1 ranked Gophers on top in the WCHA with a 12-4 record, at least two points ahead of North Dakota and Notre Dame. The Wolverines. fell to ninth place at 5-11, still two games ahead of cellar dwelling Michigan State. FOR THE WOLVERINES last night's game can at least be considered a vic- tory for the team's self-confidence. The team bounced back in grand fashion from Friday night's 10-1 em- barrassment and skated dead even with the far superior Gophers. Minnesota coach Herb Brooks was quite impressed with the , Wolverines turnaround. "It's a tribute to Dan Farrell and the Michigan team that came back and played so well," he said. "I knew they'd be tough tonight. I know the athletes he has and the athletes in this league . .. it was a helluva series for us." Farrell, in an effort to bolster his team's shoddy defense, last night star- ted fresman netminder Peter Mason between the pipes. It ws the first ap- pearance ever for the Amherst, N.Y. walk-on and the obvious question now is, where has he been? MASON STOPPED 38 of the 40 shots fired at him and a few of the saves were real beauties. Time and time again in the first period he brought a rousing cheer from the spectators as the Wolverines and Gophers played to a 0-0 first period tie. It was the first time Michigan held them scoreless in one period all season. "Mason played a real good game for us," said Farrell. "We got beat on a See GOPHERS, Page 12 x _ Last of the Nainth By RICK MADDOCK G ILBERT MARCHMAN. He's the man who invented a new type of scor- ing in football. All a ball carrier has to do is to fly through the air and fall into the endzone, regardless whether or not he brings the ball into that glorious area. Marchman, the line judge responsible for the 1979 Rose Bowl's Phantom Touchdown, also helped create a new type of spike, that is if one believes Charles White. The junior USC tailback claimed after the game that he didn't fumble. "I thought I scored," said White. "It wasn't no fumble. I released it as I went down." Yeah, sure, Charlie, whatever you say. After all, most running backs spike the ball when they're in mid-air, especially when they're on the two- yard line. Before anything else is said, one point should be made clear. Although the Phantom Touchdown changed the course of the game, it did not determinethe outcome.wMichigan still had opportunities to win, and any good team knows that it must play over intangibles such as injuries or officiating mistakes. There has been an alarming increase in poor officiating across the board in both college and professional sports. One obvious cause is the expansion of interest in big-time sports in the United States, thus enabling the promoters to offer more teams in professional sports and more big games in college sports. Just as talent is spread thin among teams, officiating is spread thin among Fames. The situation has become so bad, that it may be profitable to recruit at the major cities' zoos to see if there are any zebras capable of blowing a whistle. Then maybe in the future some type of artificial breeding could be used to produce competent officials. Another procedure that may be useful in curtailing the increase in officiating mistakes would be to create a Hall of Fame. This hall would be one that nobody would want to get in, since it would induct only those officials making crucial mistakes. But let's get back to the Rose Bowl. With about seven and a half minutes left in the second quarfer and USC ahead, 7-3, White was given the ball on a second and goal play. He was smashed by linebacker Ron Simpkins, causing a fumble. Defensive captain Jerry Meter and tackle Dale Keitz smothered the ball on the Michigan one-yard line for the recovery. From here we can play our own version of the 1979 Rose Bowl. All that is needed is a pair of dice. Roll the dice and match the total with the outcome in the chart below.

After his performance in the East-West Game,. the Michigan fullback doesn't have much left to prove. Davis scored a record-breaking six touchdowns and ran for 199 yards, another record, on 27 carries yesterday as he led the East to a 56-17 victory in the highest scoring East-West game in history. "This is it," Davis said. "I'm going home and rest-it's been a long season." Davis, a 6-foot-2, 220-pound running back, scored the East's only touchdown in the first half on a 1-yard plunge. His team trailed 17-7 at halftime. But he scored five more on the ground in the second half and gained 168 yards on 19 second-half carries. The longest of his touchdown runs was a 19-yard scamper in the fourth period, and the others covered 1, 14, 3 and 2 yards. Davis, rushing total was 52 yards over the previous record set by Pur- due's Otis Armstrong in 1972, and he scored twice as many touchdowns as the old record holders, Hank Schaldah of California in 1933 and Gerald Nesbitt of Arkansas in 1958.
