MOORE, WHO HAD a shut- out going through the first per- iod and a half, came up with 36 saves and kept the Gophers well in check. Said Minnesota coach Herb Brooks, "We ran into some excellent goaltending to- night." "That was one of our best Moore wins FIRST PERIOD SCORING: 1. M-Moretto (Dufek, Fox) 6:28 pp.; 2.

GOALIE SAVES performances this year," said Michigan coach Farrell, "Our forechecking was just what we needed." THE WOLVERINES skated aggressively from the opening face-off, tallying twice in the opening period on goals by An- gie Moretto and Pat Hughes. For those fans who worried over junior center Moretto's three game scoring drought, their concerns were quickly dis- sipated by Moretto's power play goal at 6:28 breaking the score- less tie. "Worried? Do I look wor- ried? I'm not worried" the jun- ior s t a n d o u t cheerfully re- marked just a few days ago. Evidently, M o r e t t o was not overly disturbed-he scored not only the Wolverine's first, but their fourth goal as well, and added an assist. Michigan's second goal came at 13:25 after a Moretto pass reached sophomore Pat Hughes just in front of the goal. Hughes got a soft shot off that trickled between goalie Jeff Tscherne's legs for the score. THE WOLVERINES pulled out to a 3-0 lead early in the second period on a goal by freshman Dave Debol. Captain Randy Trudeau set up the marker with a straight on shot from just inside the blue line. The p u c k deflected off Tscherne's stick to Debol, who stood waiting to the left. The Detroiter swiftly slipped it into the twine. After Michigan defenseman Greg Fox was sent off for charging, the Gophers capital- ized on the power play to get on the scoreboard at 11:42. Jun- ior forward Tom Younghans, who played an exceptional game for the Gophers, fired a 15-foot shot that reached the goal over Moore's right shoulder. Moretto gave Michigan a 4-1 lead at 4:13 of the final stanza, delighting the throng of 6,115 with an unassisted goal. MINNESOTA, whose seven- game winning streak abruptly came to an end, managed to score another goal at 11:54, notched by Joe Micheletti with assists to Tom V a n e l l i and Younghans. Michigan struck back less than a minute later with the game's final goal, scored by Frank Werner while Debol and Kris Manery assisted. THE WOLVERINES set the mood of the gaie in the first period, noticeably on the sav- age forechecking by Don Du- fek, among others, and con- tinued to contain Minnesota af- terward. Larry Thayer, brother of Wol- verine Bill Thayer, will be in goal for the Gophers. Michigan's Doug Lindskog, who missed last night's action with a groin in- jury, will also miss tonight's rematch. By JON CHAVEZ Special To The Daily WEST LAFAYETTE - Michi- - gan's wrestlers, sparked by j- Jim Brown's 3-2 decision over Boilermaker ace Joe Corso,' went on to post an easy 26-6 win ' over Purdue here last night. The meet featured the return of Wolverine captain Dave Cur- by, defending Big Ten Cham- pion, at 190 pounds, and he had no trouble disposing with rival Mark Stewart, 7-1. During the closing moments of the 167-pound match Wolver- ine Dan Brink scored a take- down and nearfall, enabling him to gain a 6-6 draw with fa- vored Bernie Barrile. PURDUE COACH Don Corri- gan, incensed at the referee's signal of Brink's nearfall, kick- - -- - ed over a wastebasket and ad- dressed the referee in what can politely be described as gutter language. Sporting a red "WIN" but- ton, the usually - collected Mich- igan coach Bill Johannesen criticized Corrigan's conduct ' severely. "If he (Corrigan) would spend more time teaching his wrestlers; and less time jump- ing up and down and screaming, he'd have a better team." Daily Photo by KEN FINK Curby, in his first action since his loss by superior decision to JJ etbot COni~ OISScott Wickard in December at East Lansing, scored his match's first takedown at 1:42 of the first period, but waited until the third period to explode. AN ESCAPE, a takedown, rid- ing time, and a penalty point called on his opponent for stall- ing gave the popular Wolverine his final margin of victory. "I felt fine," Curby said after the match. Johannesen added, "I'm real- ly happy to see him back." Curby's return to the lineup moved sophomore Mark John- son back to his best wrestling weight, 177 pounds, where he dominated his match with Pur- due's Paul Miller decisively. Better than four minutes of time advantage went into the final 4-1 result. But every bit as significant lowed by a takedown midway through the period gave the Akron junior enough points to overcome Corso's riding time. KARL BRIGGS continued to fill in capably at 142 for the in- jured Bill Schuck, scoring a third - period reversal to clinch a nip and tuck match with Boil- ermaker Kent Gourley. This victory gives the Bay City freshman a 3-0 record in dual meets, and extends the Wolverines' overall record at this position to an imposing 10-0. Also encouraging for the Maize and Blue was Mitch Mar- sicano's best performance since the Penn State meet, an 11-2 decision over Paul Scott.

ON PAPER, Northwestern has more talent than Michigan. But on the hardcourt, the Wildcats are 3-11 for the year (1-5 in the Big Ten), and coach Tex Winter has been shuffling the starting lineup all season. "Northwestern is like we were two years ago," claims Michi- gan coach Johnny Orr. "They're much better than their record." Another lineup shuffle is due for Northwestern today. Winter Big Ten Standings s mec "aily Sports NIGHT EDITOR: LEBA HERTZ I was extremely disappointed by 'U ---- iA sA Wildcats AM IM] a _. ., ___ " TON In these troubled times, isn't it nice to listenom scw halve o miC wih a lved one??? . .., _ ft n !t I nr . z ,/' i J t 4 'If Indiana Purdue Minnesota Ohio St. MICHIGAN Iowa Illinois MSU Northwestern Wisconsin W L 6b0 s z 52 4 2 3 3 3 4 2 4 2 4 1 5 0 6 his team's performance Monday night against Ohio State, and indicated to the press after the game that heads would roll this week. Two Wildcats, however, are assured of starting today. Billy McKinney, a six foot sophomore guard, leads the Purple Haze in scoring with a 17-point average in Big Ten play. He can both pop from the outside and drive to the bucket. The other sure starter is for- ward Willie Williams, a 6-6 senior. He's a fine jumper who loves to hit the boards. le also hits for 12.2 points per game. THE REMAINDER of the Wildcat starting lineup against Ohio State consisted of center James Wallace (6-10), forward Bob Svete (6-8), and guard Tim Teasley (6-1). None of this trio is scoring in double figures. Wallace and Teasley, both juniors, are products of the De- troit area. Wallace prepped at Detroit Denby, and Teasley played at Bloomfield Hills Roeper. Svete played himself into the starting lineup on the strength of his outside shooting. If any of this trio is cashiered from the starting lineup, guards Bob Hildebrand and Hilton Bale and forward Greg Wells will provide the replacements. The Wildcats' problem is simple: they can't shoot. The team is averaging but 42 perI cent from the field on the year. In seven of the fourteen games the Purple Hazti has played, it has shot less tmaA 40 per cent. THE WILDCATS hope to snap this shooting slump against a Michigan defense that has twice this year allowed the opposition to set a school shooting per- centage record against it. However, the Wolverines look- ed tough defensively -n the road, and Wildcat hopes may be based on false pretenses. "Three of Northwestern's losses this year were by one, two and four points," noted Orr. "If they would have won those games, they would nave been a real tough team." The Purple Haze gave Michi- gan a tough battle before suc- cumbing 50-48 last year, aad could do it again today. No such problems are ex- pected from Wisconsin on Mon- day night. The Badgers have yet to win atBig Ten game this year, and it looks like coach John Powless will not get an-, other chance next year. On the bright side, it appears that forward Dale Koehler has finally recovered from the ankle sprain that has sidelined him in recent weeks. Cuard Bruce iMc- Cauley has been playing fine ball of late, hitting for 22 points against Indiana. THE REST of the Baiger starting lineup consists of me- diocrity in the forms of center Bob Johnson, forward Marcus McCoy and guard Brian Colbert. Unquestionably, this week- end's big game takes place in Bloomington, Indiana today, as the Number One Indiana Hoos- iers host Purdue. The Boiler- makers are ranked second in the Big Ten, and currently stand the best chance of knocking of the Hoosiers. Indiana is deep and talented. Bobby Knight, if he wishes, can choose from among fifteen dif- ferent Big Ten ca'iber player for his starting five. Purdue has been getting fin play from fr, inan forws.Js Walter Jordan and Wayne Walls, All-American candidate John Garrett at center, an guard Bruce Parkinson, who i second onlyto Joe Johnsonas playmaker. PURDUE coach Fred Schau has had his team practice to recorded crowd noises this week, preparing for the Assem- bly Hall bedlam. He will prob- ably need a large dose of luck to beat the Hoosiers, and in this intrastate rivalry, he may get it. In other Big Ten action this weekend, the Floyd of Rose- dale rivalry hits the hardcourts as Minnesota travels to Iowa; Wisconsin visits Michigan State, and Ohio State hosts Illinois. On' Monday, Northwestern will jour- ney to East Lansing, Illinois in- vades Indiana and Purdue visits Ohio State. 1 i t_ -%I - $4.29' Mantcore Today's Games Northwestern at MICHIGAN Wisconsin at Mich.

Delgado has posted a 1:50.3 in the 200 fly this year, a mark which is less than a second off the Big Ten record set by In- ATTENTIOF diana's Mark Spitz in 1971. "Although our divers are stronger," said Coach Gus Stager, "we're going to need a superior effort from our swimmers." While the men battle at home, the women's team travels to East Lansing to swim against arch rival Michigan State.
