The various groups pushing for a new stadium to house the Tigers and the Lions have started spring training a little early this year. Current proposals would have the new stadium built outside Pontiac, in Southfield, or on the Detroit River near Cobo Hall. There is, however, strong opposition to all three plans. Southfield and Pontiac are not Detroit, and there is strong feeling that the Tigers and Lions should remain in Detroit. If a new stadium is built in Detroit, city residents' taxes would payfor it. With the city's jails, its schools and em- ployes all crying for money, any normal sense of priorities demands that stadium building be postponed. That the Tigers should be looking for a new stadium is rather surprising. Their home, venerable old Tiger Stadium, is becoming a vintage edifice in this era of symmetric structures and synthetic turf. A fan at a Tiger game feels like he is part of the action instead of a mere spectator. Tiger Stadium, however, was built for baseball,. not foot-t ball. Most seats for football are, as it were, way out in left field. Of course, the Lions usually fill every seat in the house, but it is their owners who are doing most of the pushing for a new, stadium, not the Tigers'. The push for one stadium that would house both teams is in itself surprising. There' have been about a dozen sta- diums built in the past decade for both baseball and foot- ball, and they have proved less than ideal for either sport. Ideally, if a new stadium were built, it would be the Lions who would use it and not the Tigers. Besides the practical con- sideration of keeping one team in the city, there is also the sen- i timental concern of keeping Tiger Stadium intact. Instead of building a new stadium for football, the Lions might look into the possibility of using Michigan Stadium. Cur- rent Big Ten regulations prohibit the use of conference school facilities for regular season games, but the winds of change are blowing. Until this year, exhibition games were prohibited. But fac- ed with rising costs, the Big Ten relented and exhibition games will be played at some stadiums, /including Michigan Stadium, this fall. The Lions are not the only NFL team interested in Big Ten stadiums. The Chicago Bears would dearly love to get away from cramped Wrigley Field into Northwestern's Dyche Stadium, and the Minnesota Vikings also are inter- ested in using the facilities at Minnesota. The Cincinnati Bengals do have a new stadium, but it is far smaller than the horseshoe up the road in Columbus. It is doubtful that any rapid decision is forthcoming in the dispute over where and if a new stadium should be built in De- troit. By that time, soaring athletic costs may well have forced the Big Ten to reconsider its archaic policy regarding pro games. A profit sharing plan could allow all conference schools to share in the benefits, and everyone would come out ahead.'

COALIE SAVES: MICHIGAN (Bagnell) 11-11-13-35 M-Duluth (Resch) 10-14- 7-31 By The Associated Press DETROIT -- The Detroit Pis- tons scored their second biggest victory of the season last night, swamping the San Diego Rockets 131-104 to snap their three-game National Basketball Association losing streak. The defeat was the 12th in the last 13 games for the Rockets. The Pistons stormed into an early lead and, after the Rockets pulled within four points in the third period, broke loose on the scoring of Bill Hewitt, Dave Bing and Bob Lanier to take a 94-82 advantage into the final ptriod. Bing led the Pistons with 34 points. * * * Celtics seared BOSTON - Walt Frazier and Dave Stallworth scored 12 points apiece in a fourth-period rally last night as the New York Knicks TANKERS TOUGH: Subs dunk Toronto NationalBasketball Association stormed from behind for a 118-111 victory over the Boston Celtics. Trailing 83-79 entering the fi- nale, the Knicks caught up with about eight minutes remaining. Baskets by Willis Reed, Walt Fra- zier, and Mike Riordan put them in front 95-93. Boston got to within a basket at 103-101, but Stallworth hit a field goal and two free throws and Reed added two more from the line to pull the Knicks out of danger at 109-101 with 2 minutes left. * * * Bucks breeze PHILADELPHIA - Hal Greer joined the National Basketball As- sociation's exclusive 20,000-point career club last night, but his Philadelphia 76ers lost to the Mil- waukee Bucks 142-118. The 34-year-old Greer needed 20 points to reach 20,000 and col'- lected 10 field goals and a free throw for 21. Most of his points came on typical 15-20-foot jump shots. While Greer carved out a piece of NBA history for himself, his 76ers went into a coma midway through the third period and were snuffed by the Bucks.

Travel and administrative services by WORLD WIDE CHARTER 211 SOUTH STATE STREET Gymnasts tackle toughest foes By BOB ANDREWS There very well could be a di- mension of excitement for t h e Wolverine gymnastic team this weekend as they will host a tri- ngular meet at Crisler Arena. The wo opponents are Iowa, the 1969 NCAA Team Champions, and In- diana State, which ranks as one of the finest gymnastic squads in the nation. The Wolverines are coming off a very convincing 163.7 to 150.4 Ahellacking of Eastern ,Michigan and Coach Newt Loken was quite pleased with his squad's perform- ance. But he added, "There are certain areas we will have to work on, namely the parallel bars, but: we should be ready when the meet comes." *The reason Loken emphasized the need for work on the parallel bars is that in the meet against Eastern Michigan, the Huron's captain, Lanny Mills, managed to place second in the event. If it weren't for Mills' efforts, the Wol- verines would have swept the first #ree places in every event. Even if they sweep the parallel bar event, it is highly unlikely that the Wolverines will be able to do so in all the other events. Indiana State is led by Dave Seal, last year's NCAA r i n g champion, along with Fred Hen- derson and Ray Jauch in the floor exercises, all-arounder, John Pel- likan; and Kevin Murphy and Ed Slezak, 9.4 workers on the side horse. If that is not enough for the Wolverines to worry about, t h e Hawkeye team will bring with them, Barry Slotten, the Big Ten floor exercise champion, k e n Liehr, the Big Ten side h o r s e champion, and Dan Rapp, the Big Ten rings champion. In last week's meet, all-around- er Rick McCurdy perfectly exe- cuted a twisting vault which he ! had been working on for a long time, to earn hi ma 9.35 score. Against the likes of S e a 1 and Rapp, McCurdy will have to do as well, if not better, to capture that event. Overall, McCurdy, finished with a 53.90 total, placing in the top three in all the events. The other two Wolverine versatility special- ists, Ted Marti and Ray Gura fin- ished w i t h 52.70 and 52.75 re- spectively. It will be the performance of these three that will be instru- mental in how well the Wolverines will fare admist this field of many talented gymnasts. Murray Plotkin, on the parallelj bars; Ed Howard and Jim Scully, on the high bars; Ward Black, on the floor exercises and Dick Kaz- iny on the side horse, all of whom finished with 9.00-plus scores in; their respective events, will round out Loken's squad of starters who will be out to defend the team's winning streak and its status as National Champions against what is easily the toughest competition of the year.
