Another side
of the I.M. buidin
IF STUDENTS WANT a new intramural building, they're going
to have to make some noise about it.
At least that's what Dave Mildner thinks. Mildner is a
graduate student who has devoted several years to club sports
1 and the Advisory Committee on Recreation, Intramurals and
Club Sports. He has been around long enough to see several
proposals for a new I.M. building evaporate, and he is worried
that the same thing may happen again.
Mildner feels that until students get vocal about their
demands for a new facility the University will continue to
postpone construction. "The executive officers and the offi-
cials all know that a building needs to get built," he said,
"but there has got to be very clear evidence of mass student
support to get them moving."'
As a member of A.C.R.I.C.S. Mildner participated in a
comparative survey of recreational facilities at -other univer-
sities, and compared to most, Michigan is in bad shape Exclud-
ing the two courts in Waterman gym, because they are sub-par
facilities and are not expected to be available much longer,
there are only 0.12 basketball courts for every 1000 students on
campus.
The figure at Iowa is 0.45 and at Purdue 0.39. The only school
in the Big Ten whose facilities come close to being as inadequate
is Ohio State with 0.17. And no midwestern school approaches
the standard set by some eastern colleges. Amherst has 2.5
courts per 1000 students and Cornell has 1.0.
The situation in paddleball is almost as bad. Illinois has
23 courts and Michigan State has 19. Michigan has 14. But
Mildner feels that the figures are misleading. "Michigan has
a higher percentage of graduate students," he noted, "and
the demand is greater because of them." He also noted that
the fatulty here is very big on paddleball and squash, crowd-
ing the facilities even more.
But though the need is so great, Mildner is not very opti-
mistic about a new building. Just who is responsible for its
construction is unclear and nobody seems anxious to claim it.
The athletic department runs the intramural program, but Mild-
ner feels that an I.M. building is low on the department's list of
priorities.
He thinks that the basic problem is that there is no strong
spokesman for student athletics. Or at least there is not one
that has the ear of Athletic Director Don Canham. "The non-
varsity side of athletics gets neglected because- there is no
strong, man," Mildner stated. "The current proposal for a new
building came from A.C.R.I.C.S., not the department"
He is willing to believe that Canham is in favor of a new
facility but adds that, "an I.M. building is such a big thing
that it's always being pushed off."
Actually the whole thing boils down to the money involved.
The official athletic department attitude is that the building
should be built and that it should contribute some of the money,
but that it can't handle the whole project itself.
However, Millner thinks that the department can handle
more of the burden. He is afraid that Canham is holding back
money. The less the athletic department contributes the
more students will have to pay. And Mildner thinks that the
students shouldn't have to pay for their own facilities.
At the moment the athletic department has a substantial
surplus which is increasing each year. But the surplus only exists
because football revenue has been high. If the team starts losing
or the fans get sick of watching replays of Custer's Last Stand,
revenue could fall off sharply. So if the department made a
substantial commitment now, it could find itself in trouble later
when the money got scarce. But Mildner thinks that the com-
mitment should be made-anyway.
"An I.M. building is more important than any varsity
sport," thinks Mildner. "If football revenue falls off in the
future then cutbacks should be made in other sports. They
should just run the risk of having bad football teams."
The study which A.C.R.I.C.S. gave to Canham calls
for 40 per cent funding by the athletic department, 40 per
cent by the administration and 20 per cent from other
sources. At this point it's impossible to tell if the athletic
department could handle such a burden since it is not known
how much the building will cost each year.
Included in the facility, whatever it costs, will be basket-
ball, squash and tennis courts. Mildner thinks that other things
should be added but that the pressing need is for the first three.
However he also feels that the 'building could be more than
just a place for sports. He envisions sort of a student community
center, a place for non-athletic activities. An arts and crafts
room could be included for non-art majors who can't use the
A&D school's facilities and even a day care center could be

housed in the building.
Mildner feels that these would attract student interest
from non-athletic types. Since he thinks that student support
is vital he wants to attract everyone he can to the cause. The
idea is to put pressure on the Regents so that they will act
on the matter.
It isn't the type of issue worth getting arrested over, so a
sit-in at the athletic administration isn't called for. But it is the
kind of thing that can't be forgotten. If someone doesn't keep
it in the foreground the I.M. building will be pushed back into
the corner. So if you want it, make enough noise for the Regents
to hear.

DETROIT - Dave Bing fired
in nine straight shots and fin-
ished with a 33-point perform-
ance as the Detroit Pistons whip-
ped the Cleveland Cavaliers 133-
108 last night to snap a six-game
National Basketball Association
losing streak.
Bing, the All-Star guard who
missed almost half the season fol-
lowing eye surgery, began his
string of consecutive baskets at
the start and carried it through
most of the third period.
The Pistons rolled ahead for
their most productive first half
of the season, leading 74-52 at in-
termission and finishing with
their most one-sided victory of
the season.
Bing was assisted by Bob La-
nier with 24 points, Curtis Rowe
19 and Jimmy Walker 17.

By PHIL METZGER
The "Den of the Mellow Men"
is about to be broken up, and its
charter members dispersed - to
destinations finally known.
Six phone calls reached the small
white frame house at 1345 Geddes
on Tuesday and Wednesday after-
noons. For some, they confirmed
what had been suspected; for
others, the calls came as some-
what of a surprise.
There were surprises for other
members of the Wolverine foot-
ball squad, too. Tom Beckman,
Mike Keller, Guy Murdock, and
Fritz Seyferth had either expected
to be tabbed later than they' were,
or perhaps not at all.
But the celebrations really be-
longed to the Men of the Den.
Only one of their number wasn't
picked; that was defensive end
Butch Carpenter. This may bring
into question the credibility and
foresight of the otherwise-enlight-
ened pro scouts who could take
unknowns like Herschell Mosier of
Northwest Oklahoma State or Al-
phonso Cain of Bethune-Cookman
and yet leave one of the greatest
of the Ann Arbor quarterback-
killers untapped.
In most other areas, though, the
pros seemed to do the Wolverines
justice. Defensive back Tom'(T.D.)
Darden, the first Wolverine stand-

out to be snapped up (by the eag-
erly - waiting Cleveland Browns),
could not conceal his excitement
for "something I've been thinking
about ever since I've been in ath-
letics. I didn't really expect to be
picked so quickly, though."
Many Michigan gridiron observ-
ers were not surprised by that
choice, nor by the first-round pick
of linebacker Mike Taylor of Num-
ber 33 fame. Joining Darden in his
anticipation of things to come,
Taylor felt that "it's kinda like
a dream."
By the end of the second round,
Denmates Reggie McKenzie and
Glenn Doughty had heard the call
as well.
"I sat on the bench my sopho-
more year, and don't like it. At
Buffalo, I'll work in every respect
towards starting."
With his ability, McKenzie should
have a good shot to start on the
perennial first-pick Bills.
For Doughty, drafted as a wide
receiver by the Baltimore Colts, it
won't be quite so easy. The
thought of competing with fallow
draftees Eric Allen and Lydell
Mitchell as well as established fly
men Eddie Hinton and Ray Perk-
ins doesn't faze the former wing-
back. "All I was hoping for was
for the pros to look at what I
could do-not the press."

have been the Cards' too.

Understanding this, he figures that

than necessary., For a man who
had. "hgped to go , by the +,hird

Atlanta Falcons' "didn't seem. so .
Oisappointing considering, that "I
just want an opportunity to play
with a team that needs me . . . ?a
and -I .. think they can :.use a mood
back."
Another of the houseful of stars
from the Den was Mike Oldham,
a twelfth-round pick who went to
the Washington Ramskins.' . Old-
ham didn't get a whole lot of play-
ing time while shuttling plays in
from Wolverine coach Bo Schem
bechler, and he didn't get, many
passes thrown his way.
However, Skins' coach ' George
Allen and his recruiting staff must
have seen Oldham's talent in those
few glimpses of pass receiving
this season: .
So there they go-off to 'the big
time where the going gets rougher
and the tough gets tougher and
the pocket books get fatter.
Doughty's observation of the
difference between college ball and
the pros is poignant:
"It'll be rough .. but at elast
you know the ball'll be arrivin'
on dine."
