I crowd of 3,943, the largest Spartan hockey audience in any- body's memory, jammed into every available spot in MSU's ancient Ice Arena to witness State's De- Marco family score three goals and Don Thompson rack up four assists. The loss drops the Wolverines into eighth place in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association with a 2-5 conference record and a 6-7. mark over all. The Wolverines, who sometimes seem bent on leading the confer- ence in penalty minutes if noth- ing else, received only six penalties last night, but three of them re- sulted in Spartan goals. The Spartan power play goals; in the third period did the Wol- verines in. The first came midway: in the stanza, with Jerry Connelly off the ice for interference-his second penalty of the night-and the second resulting in an enemy score. Bob Boid passed eight feet in front of the net to Jerry DeMarco, who shot it into the right hand corner of the goal giving State a 4-3 lead. Bagnell, screened by Mi- chel Jarry, was unable to make a! play. Three minutes later Julian Nix-: on was sent off for hooking, and MSU scored the deciding goal within 13 seconds just after a face! off at the State end of the ice. Randy Sokoll took a pass from Thompson on the left, and all alone 15 feet in front of the net, put it in. The Wolverines gained one of those goals back with five minutes to go when Merle Falk skated around Boid behind the MSU goal, then passed the puck to Rick Mallette just in front of the crease. From there Mallette scoredd easily. Toward the end of the game, the Wolverines played a frustratedN game of catch-up. In the last min- ute of play they were barely able to get the puck out of the Spartan NIGHT EDITOR: zone.

"It did come as a bit of a sur- prise," Harkness said at the team's Olympia Stadium office, adding,; "It's a great break for me oppor- tunity wise and financial wise." However, the first-year National Hockey League coach said "I haven't been relieved of my job as a coach. This was made very clear to me by Mr. Norris." "But." he added later, "if I follow the requirements of Mr.1 Norris as general manager I don't . feel I could also coach and do both jobs right." Meanwhile, Norris called Coach' Doug Barkley up from the team's' Forth Worth farm club of the Central Hockey League to serve as a temporary coach. He was ex- pected to join the team today before the game in Detroit against Buffalo. He "will take over be- hind the bench for the next few games while we consider various candidates for coach," Norris said. Harkness, 49, was the target of a number of verbal broadsides by Abel when the veteran of 30 years in the Wings' organization resign- ed Wednesday. Harkness. who coached at Ren- sellaer Polytechnic Institute for 14 years and at Cornell University for seven years, said there would be a meeting today to discuss a new team "policy." Chief Scout Jimmy Skinner; Baz Bastlen, assistant general manager; scout Jack Paterson; and Jim Bishop, executive direc- tor, were to join Harkness to "crystalize our thinking," Hark- ness said. side of the goal, who pushed it into the unguarded net. Two min- utes later, with the Wolverines enjoying a man advantage. Brian Slack skated with the puck toward the Spartan goal, and about eight feet out, skated around Dick Hott- top of the circle, and Falk shot it past the right side of goalie Jim Watt. The Spartans took the lead two minutes into the second period just after Connelly was sent off the ice for charging.

Except for the parallel bars event, in which' the Wolverines posted a score of 25.45, the team averaged above the 27 point mark. In the all-around competition, Rick McCurdy led the Wolverines with a 52.85 total, while Ray Gura had 52.75 and Ted Martirfinish-! ed third with a 50.70 score. The strongest event of the night was in the long horse, where Gura posted a 9.3, McCurdy and Terry Boys tied at 9.1 while Pete Rogers, was close behind with a 9.05 total. Coach Newt Loken was very1 pleased with the performance of Ed Howard on the high bar. How- ard's score was a 9.45, good enough to lead all competitors in t h a t event. Rounding out the Wolverine high bar attack were Marti with an 8.85 and Gura with an 8.75. One of the more pleasant sur- prises was the performance of freshman, Monty Falb who equal- ed McCurdy's 9.10 for the Mich- igain high in the rings event. Mike Sale's 8.65 gave the team a 26.85 total in that event. Dick Kaziny, Ray Gura and Mike Gluck combined to post a 27.05 score in the side horse. In the free exercises, G u r a was the only Wolverine to hit the nine point plateau with a 9.0 even while McCurdy was second with an 8.90, followed by Boys, who man- ing up before their next meet. aged an 8.80. In the parallel bars, no Wol- verine managed to score above 8.60, which was posted by Marti. Behind him were Gura with a 8.45 and McCurdy with a 8.40. This is the event which bothered Loken the most and he plans to empha- size that part of the competition in the two weeks of practice com- Despite the weakness in t h e parallel bars, Loken feels t h a t the team had a pretty good meet for the beginning of the season and is confident that it will not take long for the squad to reach the 164 point average which the team consistently attained as they captured the national champion- ship. man, sending the puck through Marco took a shot from the point, the bewildered defender's legs. and not only was Bagnell screened Slack then passed to Buck by several of his own team, but INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS ASSOCIATION Straub. the puck seemed to deflect off a The game began as it ended Wolverine skate.

Fer- guson yesterday in effect ruled for and against basketball star Spenc- er Haywood in his law suit against the National Basketball Associa- tion. The court, after a nearly three- hour hearing, denied an action by the Denver Rockets of t h e American Basketball Association which sought to have the 21-year- old superstar play for them and no one else. In the more provocative ruling, Ferguson continued Haywood's temporary restraining o r d e r against the NBA for 10 days. The player's action is aimed at the NBA's rule regarding the National Collegiate Athletic Association's four-year rule. If, the judge ruled, Haywood and his battery of attorneys have not filed prima facie evidence within the 10 days, a cause of ac- tion questioning the antitrust pos- sibilities in the case, the restrain- ing order then will be dissolved. The decision means that Hay- wood can resume play with the Seattle SuperSonics of the NBA. It was the signing by the Seattle club of Haywood on Dec. 28 that precipitated the biggest wrinkle in the long, drawn a n d complex lawsuit. Haywood filed against the NBA, attacking its rulethatsno college player can compete in the league until his college class has grad- uated. The ABA has no such re- striction. Haywood's class at the University of Detroit graduates Attorney Arthur Groman, rep- resenting the NBA, charged in the hearing that President Sam Schul- man of the SuperSonics instigated the entire action on behalf of Haywood against the NBA - of which his club is an expansion member - and accused the multi- millionaire owner of attempting to "subvert and destroy the NBA." Haywood last year signed a six- year contract for $1.9 million which actually extended over a span of many years, beyond the first six when it was presumed he would be playing regularly with the Rockets. He originally h a d signed with Denver as a financial hardship case the previous season. Haywood became disenchanted with the contract last fall and sev- ered relations with Denver, setting off the ensuing chain of lawsuits. 11 1 ..:ti '.: ~next SProfessional League Standings June.
