Indiana boots Soccer Club
The Indiana Hoosiers may not be overly adept at football
of the oblong variety but the Michigan Soccer Club found out
that they are best at football of the round ball variety, soccer,
as the Hoosiers bounced the Wolverines last Saturday 10-1 at
Bloomington.
Playing on Astroturf for the first time, the Michigan
'booters found the bal moving much faster than on grass,
so fast in fact that Indiana blew out to a 4-0 lead after only
five minutes in the first half.
"Indiana controlled the game from the outset," said team
member Mike Ross, "they were much quicker than us and had
great ball control."
New soccer Coach Jim Schnare, a law student from Penn-
sylvania with four years of playing experience, was disap-
pointed with the loss. "What the score reflects rather than the
superior play of the Indiana club is the difference in programs
between Michigan and Indiana, I kind of took over the coaching
job and was stunned by how soccer is lost in the professional
attitude of the sports department here," fumed Schnare, "it's
a darn shame that at a school the size of Michigan we can't get
more than $300 for our program."
For the record next Wednesday the Soccer Club travels to
Toledo to battle the University of Toledo Rockets.

State stumps gal netters
The undefeated women's intercollegiate tennis squad marred
their record yesterday by falling to the reigning Big Ten
champions from East Lansing in a close contest. In the six
singles matches, the Spartans came through with four wins
while in the doubles the Staters took two out of three from the
Wolverines.
In first singles, Sue Selke (MSU) eeked by Diane Czarnecki
(M) 6-1, 4-6, 7-5. Missy Pollick dropped two sets 6-4, 6-4 to State's
Diane Suterko in second singles. The lone winners for Michigan,
Jan Karzen and Lori Jameson, out maneuvered their opponents
in two sets apiece.
The next match is Thursday against Eastern, 3 p.m., Varsity
Courts.

Bing returns to Pistons
Star Detroit Pistons' guard Dave Bing rejoined the club
yesterday at the persuasion of his teammates, ending but not
solving a three-week contract dispute.
"It was through them that I'm back now. They've all
asked me to come back," Bing said of his teammates. "We
feel that with or without me we're a good team but with me
we're a better team."
Bing's decision to return followed a meeting with club offi-
cials. He also had a meeting with the Pistons on Tuesday.
"I respect my teammates as individuals and I respect being
part of this team," Bing said, "and that's why I'm back and
I'm hoping to bring a championship to the city of Detroit."

Cowens suffers injury
Injured All-Star center Dave Cowens will be out of action
for about seven weeks, the Boston Celtics have learned just 1(
days before opening the defense of their National Basketbal
Association championship.
Cowens is lost probably until the end of November,
with a broken bone in his right foot.
Cowens sustained the fracture in an exhibition game against
the Milwaukee Bucks in New York Tuesday night.
His loss leaves the Celtics with three pivot-men: the eight
year vetern 7 foot Henry Finkel, Jim Ard, and Byron Jones.
NCAA hockey in hot water
The Minneapolis Star reported yesterday the NCAA is con
sidering dropping hockey as an intercollegiate sport.
The NCAA's action is based upon its concern that pay-
ments made by the National Hockey League through the
Amateur Hockey Association to help develop U.S. hockey
programs might be turning amateur hockey professional,
the Star said.
If the NCAA eliminates hockey, it is unclear what effect i
would have upon hockey players currently receiving scholar
ships.

"We've been running steps
