The Michigan Daily-Friday, January 12, 1979-Page 11 PURDUE CONTROLS FINAL MINUTES WINS 77-67 Fouls costly in Blue's loss to Purdue By JAMIE TURNER Special to the Daily WEST LAFAYETTE-The words is now out: the best way to beat Michigan is to have it buried beneath an avalanche of fouls. Forced to play most of the second half without veteran center Phil Hubbard, the Wolverines dropped their second Big Ten game in a row to Purdue 77-67 in Mackey Arena last night. Fifty fouls were called in the contest that saw Hubbard, Purdue center Joe Barry Carroll and Boilermaker reserve pivot man Neal Bemenderfer all leave the game on fouls. But Michigan was less able to shake off the effects of losing its star than was Purdue. The Wolverines were still in the game 52-48 with 9:52 remaining in the game when Hubbard left. But from that point Purdue proceeded to the foul line and ended up hitting 17 of its last 25 points from the charity stipe. Star guard Jerry Sichting was the main beneficiary of the free throw onslaught-10 of his game high 24 points coming on free throws. Many of the free throws came as a result of the slow down game that Boilermaker coach Lee Rose instructed his charges to use after Purdue gained a 3-point lead 55-52 with 7:40 left. "When we got in the bonus and could go to our delay game (it was the turning point)," said Sichting af- terward. But at least one Wolverine questioned the many calls. "They (the Boilermakers) were just falling down as soon as they saw you coming,".said Tom Staton, who started his first game since early in the season after overcoming a bout with bronchitis. "We were making contact a little but they would fall down as soon as we bumped them." Both Hubbard and Carroll had picked up two personal fouls in the first 20 minutes, but theMichigan senior ac- cumulated another two in a 79 second span. When Hubbard returned six minutes later, it took only four seconds for him to pick up his fifth foul which gave Purdue an added advan- tage for the final minutes. In all, Hubbard only saw 24 minutes of action. From the outset it was obvious that the Wolverines were going to have a tough time against the inspired Purdue quintet. The first half was a microcosm of what transpired between the twok teams last season. Immediately Purdue established its superiority on the boards and raced off to a quick 14-6 advantage. With a 13-inch size edge in the front court the Boilermakers forced Michigan into forcing its shots from the outside. But slowly the margin was cut down as Mike McGee began hitting his jumpers and Hubbard began to outmuscle Carroll underneath. With help from sloppy Purdue tur- novers, Michigan went into halftime ahead 37-35 when sub Paul Heuerman canned both ends of a one-and-one late in the period. McGee had 14 of his 19 points in the first half and was the Wolverines' dominant force in all facets of the. game. But the Omaha sophomore wasn't able to continue in that vain in the second half-and with Hubbard out it was too much for the Wolverines to overcome. Often Michigan found its worst enemy to be itself, as it missed six of its first seven foul shots. This self-denial would come back to haunt the Wolverines later. The Wolverines drop to 1-2 in the conference and 7-4 overall while Purdue raised its mark to 1-2 and 11-4 respec- tively. Asked if the loss put Michigan's title hopes against the wall, Orr responded, "We can come back. Last year In- diana lost five of its first seven games and still went to the NCAA's. We've just got to win the next two games on the road (at Wisconsin tomorrow and Northwestern Thursday night)." Hearns records 15th knockout PURDUE Min FG/A FT/A Morris ...... Hlallman.. Carroll...

Gray, whose record dropped to 72-6, was Hearns' fifteenth knockout victim in as many fights. The 31-year-old veteran was able to stand up before the end of the count, 'but referee Arthur Mercante would not let the fight con- tinue. "I had a problem early in the fight with my back," Gray said. "It hap- pened in about the third or fourth round. IN THE FINAL round. Gray came out trying to knock Hearns out, knowing that he needed one for a victory over the Motor City Cobra. Gray left himself uncovered just enough for Hearns to connect the final blows. "I'm very impressed with him,'' Gray said. "He's a very well- conditioned fighter. He punches very well." Gray should know since he was belted all night long by Hearns. Gray was saved by the bell at the end of the fifth round. Hearns hit the veteran with over twenty punches as he had him pinned against the ropes. GRAY WENT through similar punishment in the beginning of the eighth round as Hearns belted him along the ropes into the corner and around on the ropes some more, which covered about one-fourth of the ring. Hearns seemed to run out of punches to throw, enabling Gray to escape. The flurry cut Gray above his left eye which bled the rest of the night. "I'm ready. I need a title shot," Hearnssaid. "He (Gray) didn't hurtme at all." Who does he want to fight? "Palamino," cheered the Hearns' side, That's Carlos Palamino, the World Boxing Council (WBC) champion. Hearns was moved from seventh to six- th by the WBC yesterday prior to the fight. LAST NIGHT'S fight was covered by media from all over the United States and Canada. CBS filmed the fight for its sports spectacular television show. The added exposure should help Hearns in getting his title bid. The fight had an interesting matchup. Although Gray had more experience, Hearns was stronger and taller. He stands 6-1 at 148 pounds while Gray is 5-8 at 148%/2 poun- ds. The smaller Gray moved ISCOR ES I College Basketall Purdue 77.

Whenever Gray got tired and stopped moving, yells from his corner reminded him to keep moving. "Move, Clyde, move," came the calls from his trainer. This happened in the seventh round as Gray was enabling Hearns to measure with his left and then hit with his right. Gray showed the most spunk in the last two rounds. After getting belted in the eighth, he was able to get some good hits in the ninth. He was still bleeding, but that didn't seem to affect him. Hearns seemed a little tired in this round.

BIG TEN R OUNDUP Ilini stuns Spartans Intensive Study of African MW Culture/Anth ALSO AVAILABLE COURSES By The Associated Press CHAMPAIGN - Eddie Johnson pop- ped in a 20-foot jumper from the right corner with three seconds left to give fourth-ranked and undefeated Illinois a 57-55 victory over top-ranked Michigan State in college basketball last night. With 40 seconds to go, Levi Cobb won a jump ball from the Spartans' Ron Charles at the Illinois foul line. Johnson grabbed the ball and the Illini called time out with 37 seconds to play. They then ran down the clock until Johnson, a sophomore forward who led the Illini with 16 points, pumped in his game-winning bucket. The Spartans had one last hope, but I5arvin Johnson missed a desperation heave from beyond midcourt. Illinois, 15-0, had made a strong comeback to take a 32-28 halftime lead, but Michigan State, 9-2, quickly tied the score as Jay Vincent and Earvin John- son got the first two baskets after in- termission. The first half seemed like two dif- ferent games, with Michigan State dominating at the outset before Illinois took complete charge. The Spartans scored just six points in the last 11:30 of the half. Kelser, who led the Spartans with 25 points, got the first six points of the game before Bresnahan hit a bucket. * * * Badgers roll MADISON - Claude Gregory scored 22 points as Wisconsin, riding a second- half surge of 12 unanswered points, stormed to a 95-82 Big Ten basketball victory over Northwestern last night. The victory snapped the Badgers' four-game losing streak, moving them out of the conference cellar with a 1-2 record.-Northwestern is 0-3. The speedier Badgers took an 11-10 lead with eight minutes elapsed and never trailed, leading 39-34 at inter- mission. Northwestern's taller Wildcats had trouble hitting in the first half. Reser- ves began appearing midway in the half, including Bob Klaas and Pete Boesen who had 15 and 12 points respec-e tively before fouling out. The Badgers broke the game open in the second half. Their 12-point spurt was capped by a Wesley Matthews slam dunk to make it 37-38 with 13 minutes to play. Joe Chrnelich added 21 points and Matthews 20 for the Badgers 7-5. Nor- thwestern is 4-8. -Introduction To African Study Black Economic Development Of The Caribbean Survey Of Afroamerican History li/Hist275 African Leaders Arts of Black Folk i1 History of Afroamerican Music 1I Black Political Thought/PS Study of Black History/Hist Seminar in African History/Hist T Th MW M MW T Th 4:00-5:30 PM Staples 7:00-9:00 AM Staples 1:30-3:00 PM Roberts 10:00-12:00 PM Johnson 2:00-3:00 PM Stone 10:00-12:00 PM Spivey 3:00-4:30 PM Enyia 9:00-11:00 AM Lockard 8:00-9:30 AM Lcwrence 9:00-10:00 AM Abdi 3:00-5:00 PM Fields 3:00-5:00 PM Uzoigwe T TH MWF T W Elm HOUSING DIVISION RESIDENT STAFF JOB OPENINGS FOR 1979-80 INFORMATIONAL MEETINGS: Monday, Jan. 15-Wednesday, Jan. 17, 1979 Sunflight Holidayse Cozumel ..-.-.. .
