He started off the season well, leading the Woilverines in scoring and rebounding in their opening loss to Notre Dame. He had a couple of other good games, too, grabbing 18 re- bounds and scoring 32 points against Harvard and Wyoming in the Michigan Invitational. He also helped the Wolverines upset then tenth-ranked Villanova for third place in the Rain- bow Classic tournament, with 14 points and as many rebounds. But even though he had played well, Brady was still not the big, dominating figure under the boards that the Wolverines needed so sorely to make them into a contender for the Big Ten title. And then there were those bad games, the games where Brady just couldn't seem to do anything right. He couldn't score or rebound in the first two games of the Rainbow Classic against St. Louis University and Hawaii, and he was pulled in favor of Ernie Johnson in last week's Big Ten opener against Wisconsin. Brady had shown that he had the ability to be a good big man, but he had yet to show that he had the real aggressive- ness and consistency to help the Wolverines be a winner. Then Saturday, in his - and the Wolverines' - biggest test of the season, Brady put all the inconsistency, all the bad games, and even all the merely good games behind him. He went out against the strongest, most physical team in the Big Ten, and convincingly showed that he can more than hold his own under the basket. Brady finished with 18 points on eight of 13 field goal attempts and two out of two from the free throw line in the Wolverines' 92-81 win over the 11th ranked Hoosiers. But, most Importantly, Brady went to the boards, hauling in 20 of Mich- igan's 49 rebounds. "This is Brady's best game this year by far," Michigan coach Johnny Orr noted after the game. "His play was a big factor in the victory. When he goes to the boards and gets the ball out on the break, we can really move." Orr's comments were echoed by Brady's teammates, 'The difference was the rebounding," said guard Wayne Grabiec, who is often on the front end of the Wolverines' fast break that is started by Brady. Brady's performance is all the more impressive when one considers that he was battling two or three players almost as big as he is everytime he went up for the ball, George McGinnis and Joby Wright, both of whom stand over 6-7 and weight In around 220, played almost the entire game, much of it inside. Steve Downing; who also stands about 6-7 and weighs about 220, saw quite a bit of action, most of it under the basket. "Everyone kept saying all week that if we were going to win this game we had to rebound, rebound, rebound." Brady said after the game, stretching out on a trainer's table with an ice pack on his ankle. "So I just went to the boards." It is worthy of note that Brady went-to both the boards, not Just one of them. He got Michigan's fast break going with a defensive rebound and a quick pass on a number of occasions, and got six points on three tip-ins at the other end of the court. Brady made his tremendous strength known to the Hoosiers early in the game, too, as he went to block a shot by McGinnis, reputedly one of the strongest forwards in the conference, and sent the Hoosier star sprawling on the floor. "It was just a matter of getting my confidence up," said Brady, assessing his performance Saturday in view of his more trying experiences earlier in the season. Now, the former Michigan high school player of the year who sat out his freshman year because he was academically ineligible seems to have all the confidence and aggressive- ness he needs to go along with his very obvious physical talents, "I don't want to say how far we can go in the Big Ten," Brady said, "but we've proven to ourselves how good we can be." Oh, yes, in addition to everything else, Saturday was also 4 the first time this season that Brady was able to play the entire game without a rest. It was also the first time he was too valuable to take out, but the odds are good it won't be the last. Professional League Standings daily sports NIGHT EDITOR.

Chicago moved to a 93-72 ad- vantage midway in the third quarter behind the 13-point effort of Jerry Sloan and a 10 point push by Tim Sloan and a. 10 point push by Tom Boerwinkle. Chet Walker, who scored 32 points, tosssed in seven in a two- minute flurry to move the Chi- cagoans ahead, 112-100 with 4:90 left. By BETSY MAHON Change, both in the actual rou- tines and methods of practice, is one of the hallmarks of the sport of diving. While the technique of diving is more or less standard the styles7 for each dive are set by the coach- es. The style that is in vogue one year may be out of date a fewa seasons later. Consequently,, a good diving coach must keep up with the practice methods an diving styles of the leading coach- es in order to mold his team into contenders. "A coach must recognize whatl good diving is," says the Wolverine1 diving coach Dick Kimball. "He must have a picture of what the dive should look like before he1 can correct his divers' moves." Kimball, diving coach of t h e 1964 Olympic team and one of the leading college mentors in t h e country, has carried the innova- tive nature of the sport into his training techniques. One of the practice methods Kimball has per- fected is the use of spotting rigs with the trampoline and the Port-A-Pit diving board. The trampoline has been used widely for years and has b e e n considered a tremendous asset to diving because of the similarities of the actions. Kimball feels that working on the trampoline is a good method for learning twisting and the correct way of landing. Now, Kimball's divers use a sys- tem where a pulley is mounted on the ceiling over the trampoline. The diver is attached to the pul- ley by a belt which allows him freedom of movement. This makes practice on the trampoline safer and it becomes an excellent tool for teaching forward and back- ward sumersaulting dives. Another favorite Kimball mec- hanism involving the pulleys is the diving board mounted over a Port-A-Pit. The "pit" is actually a net and plastic encasement fill- ed with a type of poly foam. It provides a safe landing spot for the diver and prevents him from injury in the event he lands on his back or stomach. Kimball con- 10% off EVERYTHING NOW at NOW Student Book Service siders the Port-A-Pit a great as- set because it enables a diver to practice many approaches and take-offs in a short span of time. Kimball was one of the first diving coaches in the country to establish a summer diving camp. His camp in Florida has b e e n growing during the five years of its existence. He feel s it is a worthwhile experience b e c a u s e "This w a y you can develop a youngster rather than remaking a college age diver." Although Kimball has his var- sity divers at camp he also takes long looks at grade school ath- letes. "I like to look at them young and see how fast they develop.' He can work with high school ath- letes until their senior year when, according to NCAA rules, he is forbidden to work with them. Kimball's coaching and recruit- ing techniques have been highly successful as he has molded some championship divers. Leading his squad is senior Dick Rydze who has twice b e e n national AAU champion on the 10 meter plat- form. He finished second on the springboard in the AAU and Col- legiate meets and has twice been named an All-American. Behind Rydze is sophomore Joe Crawford who won the Northern California championship while in high school and who was an AAU finalist as a freshman last year. Kimball also has high hopes for two former state champions who are n o w Michigan freshmen: Steve Schental of Louisiana and Peter Agnew of Illinois. Hoope Pickiiigs BULLETIN Ann Arbor, Mich. - The Michigan Daily last night revealed plans for an attempt to feed the remaining survivors in the be- leaguered campus dormitories. According to reliable sources the ever generous twirps on the sports staff have instituted Hoope Pickings with the hope that the weakly winner will split his Cottage Inn pizza with his compatriots. With the pending possibility of a total shut-down of the Univer- sity, these same humanitarians are reportedly ready to offer to the winner of each week's Hoope Pickings a free game of bowling for himself and his best buddy at the Michigan Union Bowling Lanes to help pass those dull studyless hours away. So get those picks into the Daily by midnight Friday, being care- ful to pick the exact score of the Michigan game, and who knows, maybe you'll live long enough to you are. 1.
