University Tue-Fri 8-7, Sat 9-7, Sun 10-8 By LIZ IAAC The Michigan women's basketball team barnstor- med Purdue in the first half yesterday and then held off a brief Boilermaker surge to win 73-61 at Crisler Arena. Michigan opened the game by hitting its first six shots and did not allow a Purdue bucket in the first five minutes, while building up a 17-0 lead. Keeping a torrid shooting pace, the cagers shot 59.0 per cent from the field, which overpowered Purdue's 24.4 first half clip. Purdue could not adjust to the Wolverine defense and was plagued with tipped passes throughout the half. Michigan (13-1l) stretched its lead until the score stood at 48-20 at the half. yo"Our type of defense is hard to play against if you've never seen it," said junior guard Terry Schevers, who broke up numerous Purdue passes and contributed eleven assists in the contest. "We have a help-and-recover defense, where we help out our teammates," she continued. "The way we shift is hard to adjust to." "I don't think they played defense very much," said Michigan Coach Gloria Soluk, explaining her Thank you for reading this far. And, in case you're unaware of it, there's more great sports news on the previous two pages. squad's dominance of the first half. Purdue (5-17) managed to stage a comeback in the second half. Sharpening up' on defense, it was the Boilermakers' turn to play the pass-stealing game and slow down the Blue offense. But the margin was too wide, and the closest Pur-v due came was within ten points with 2:30 left to play. "We get fired up and play great," said Soluk. "But. the team has got to learn to take it to the end." "We were trying to run the fast break - that was part of the problem," said Schevers. "We, haven't really tried to run itlately." Katie McNamara, who showed some sharp defen- sive and offensive play, agreed. "The fast break hasn't been working, and then sometimes when we need it, we have trouble." Adding to the Wolverine offensive attack were Diane Dietz with 20 points, Yvette Harris with ten, and Schevers with nine. Harris also contributed 13 boards as Michigan outrebounded their opponents 51-39. Freshman Sue Bartz had 18 points to lead the Boilermakers. Sophomores Debbie Funkhouser and Sue Fackler tallied 14 and ten, respectively. The starting time for the cagers' next game has been changed. Originally slated for 6:00, Saturday's contest with Oakland University is now scheduled for 12:30 at Crisler. "What is a UREAKFAT AGEL ?"

MSU defen dfs ,suit GRAND RAPIDS (UPI)-Michigan State University defended its financial backing for women's athletes yester- day in a sex discrimination trial testing the federal mandate for equal treat- ment of women's and men's athletic programs. The MSU women's varsity basketball team filed suit Feb. 5, charging the school with discrimination in its meal nd room allowances for road games. e suit was based on provisions of .tle IX of the Education Act of 1972 and e U.S. Constitution. THE SUIT SAID MSU gives the en's team $16 a day for road meals and only allows women $11, and men leep two to a motel room while women leep four to a room. The women have asked in the trial hat opened Wednesday for an injun- ction barring the alleged discrimination and damages, both exemplary and compensatory. MSU ATTORNEY Byron Higgins ants U.S. District Judge Noel P. Fox to decide whether Title IX means MSU would have to provide the same operating budgets for comparable pn's and women's teams. 'The men's basketball program perates on a $120,000 budget, while the omen's program has a $13,500 budget. br. Nell Jackson, who has been assistant athletic director for women's sports at MSU for six years, testified thfat in developing her budgets she was forced to consider whether a given sport produced any revenue.
