Wayne Duke, Big Ten Com-

further interviews and study of
films will be made before any
action is taken.
Athletic Directors Ed Weaver of
Ohio State and Paul Giel of Min-
nesota, Herbert Rohrig, supervisor
of Big Ten officials, and Duke
have reviewed official game films.
"They were not conclusive to
the extent we could make a total
assessment of the situation," said
Duke. "In addition, Giel, Rohrig
and I viewed other film and con-
sulted with several of the prin-
cipals involved."
Two Ohio State players, Witte
and, Mark Wagar, who had suf-
fered facial lacerations, were re-
leased from University hospitals
after being held over night for
observation.
Minor was treated at the hos-
pital for lacerations Tuesday
night and released.
Minnesota forward Clyde Tur-

tried to shoot. It was ruled a
flagrant foul and Turner was
ejected.
Corky Taylor, -Minnesota for-

off the floor after he had gone
down following the foul. As I,
pulled him up, Witte spat at me."I
Witnesses generally agreed that'
at that point, Taylor kneed Witte
in the groin. Players from both
benches streaked onto the floor,
along with spectators, and a ser-

CANHAM INVESTIGATES:
Varsity status for lacrosse?

A net phase
This exalted leader of leaders
has dropped one of his greatest
bombshells. After eight months
of secret deliberations he has
decided to announce to the Daily
Sports Staff who'll replace him
as Commander-in-Chief as well
as who'll be members of the
new cabinet. Close your eyes{
and hold your breath!
By RICH STUCK
The Michigan Lacrosse Club
is looking to be the first new
varsity sport at Michigan in
over 30 years. Athletic Director
Don Canham is currently inves-
tigating the merits of the formal
petition presented to his office
by the club in seeking varsity
recognition and a final decision
will be forthcoming this winter.
Varsity status would make
more money available to the
club for operating expenses. As
it now stands the players shoul-
der most of the costs for equip-
ment and trips themselves. How-
ever, attaining varsity level
would make all graduate stu-
dents ineligible, thereby elimin-
ating a maior portion of the
Wolverine squad.
In anticipation of a favorable
decision, the lacrosse club is ac-
tively recruiting undergraduates
to strengthen its nucleus of
players. Coach Bob Kaman.
points out that "although many
players will be lost one need only
look at the program at Michigan
State" to see success.
After existing as a club for
several years with a membership
of 25-30 players, State had 80
potential Spartans try out for
the newly formed varsity.
"In terms of participation,"
Kaman argues. "a varsity team
will enlarge both the number
of players and 'the number of
fans supporting the game."
Meanwhile the team held its
first practice of the season Mon-
day evening in Yost Fieldhouse.
The club, champions of the
Midwest Club Lacrosse Associa-
tion in 1971 with an 8-1 record
is eagerly looking ahead to the
defense of its title. Long the
doormat of the league, Michigan
has achieved a complete turn-
about so that now they are the
recognized class of the confer-
ence, even though a jump to
varsity status would temporarily
set back the growth.
The first action for the la-
crossemen will be on their trip
to North Carolina during the
spring break. Currently all of
the grad students are practic-
ing with the team even though
a yes from Canham would force
a wholesale change to the
younger members of the squad.
The defense would be the
strongest position on the team
as all three defensemen are un-
dergrads as well as All-Midwest
goalie Jay Johnson. The defense
iI composed of juniors Pete Lod-
wick and Tim Cotter, and senior
Dave Fischer.
Whereas the defense is young,
the attack positions are manned
almost entirely by grads. Skip
Flanagan; Roger Mills, Steve
Hart, and Phil Powers are all in
this category. The only exper-
ienced undergraduate attack-
man is junior Don Holman.

" DETROIT-The Detroit Lions

mer All-Pro guard Alex Karras,
giving the footballer-turned-tele-

A Lions spokesman said the
$80,000 settlement covered Kar-

the last two years of his contract
plus $10,000 in pension benefits
which he would have earned had
he played out the agreement.
Karras was starting the sixth

contract when he was released on
waivers by the Lions last Septem-
ber. He had been with the team
for 13 years.
