"The mile relay is open to the fastest men on the team
in the 440 so until Grace proves himself, the 'A' team will
stay intact," explained Coach Harvey.
Last week in the Michigan State Relays the team of
Doug Hennibar, Dave Furst, Jeff McLeod, and Dave Wil-
liams ran a blazing 3:14 to win the mile relay. Grace will
have to pump one of those men.
The Wolverine's strength in the dual meet with State

the sprints.

Paul Zielinski and Howard Neely, and the boys from East

One person from Michigan State who will be notable by t
his absence will be world class sprinter Marshall Dill who
is ineligible this semester. "Dill missing means more to
State than just poin'ts lost, he also affects team morale,"
summarized Michigan mentor Harvey. y
Regarding the outcome of the meet Harvey stated,'
"We're not going to die if we lose, but we'd like to win and
revenge last year's loss. On paper I think we can beat
them, but in track you have to run."

son and are the cellar-dwellars

Farrell plans to juggle the
Wolverines' lines this weekend
in hopes of finding the winning
combination.
In many of the series this
year, Wolverine leading scorer,
Angie Moretto, has been effec-
tively tied up by opposing
teams. When this happens,'
Michigan usually loses as was
the case last week at Colorado
College. The Wolverines lostI
both games to the Tigers and
Moretto had no goals and but
one assist.
TO HELP counter this stra-
tegy, Moretto now has winger;
Pat Hughes and Don Dufek on
his line. With Hughes a major
scoring threat with 14 goals and
12 assists, opposing teams will '

not be able to concentrate solely
on Moretto. Dufek's addition
should 'dd strength to the cor-
ners.
Other line changes include
RandyNeal centering with Doug
Lindskog and Gary Kardos at
the wings. Also Don Fardig,
Gary Morrison and Dan Hoene
have been teamed up for a
line.
The only line staying intact for
the Wolverines is center Dave
Debol and wingers Kris Manery
and Frank Werner.
NORTH DAKOTA coach Rube
Bjorkman ruled out any special
strategy to contain Moretto.
"No, we'll play 'em straight
and tight."
North Dakota finished in the
basement of the league last
year with an 8-20 record. One of

those wins was a 4-2 victory series-whoever is hot at the
against the Maize 'n Blue. But time will usually stay that way.
it appears as though North
Dakota's record will be worse . Aware of this Farrell said, "I

It is expected that North Da-
kota will start Peter Waselovich
in the nets tonight opposing
Robbie Moore. Waselovich and
his back-up, Gordy Hangsleben,
both have a 5.2 goals against
average, though Farrell believes
that is deceptive.
"THEY HAVE two good
goalies but their averages don't
tell their true ability," added
Farrell. "They are only as good
as the team is in front of them."
Backing Farrell's observation
is the fact that Waselovich has
718 saves, second in the league
to Michigan State's goaltender
Ronald Clark.
Whether Michigan wins or
loses two games this weekend
will make no difference in the
standings. They have a lock on
sixth place with little chance of
moving up in the standings.
Going into the playoffs with a
healthy winning streak could
give . Michigan the confidence
necessary for putting it all to-
gether and advancing to the
NCAA's in Saint Louis. As it
has been often said in a short

Special To The Daily
MADISON-After taking four
of the six singles matches,
Michigan's netters lost two dou-
bles matches and narrowly es-
caped with a 5-4 win over Ala-'
bama in the first round of the,
National Intercollegiate Indoor'
team tennis championships here
last night.
Netter Coach Brian Eisner,
said, "We'd like to have won
a little more decisively but!
we're happy to win."
The singles matches started
off on a bad note for the Wolver-
ines when hard-hitting Victor'
Amaya was upset by the Crim-
son Tide's Sam Vuillie 6-2, 6-2.
Eisner said that Vuillie played
extremely well against Amsya
and that, "With Vuillie playing
so well, Victor didn't expect a}
return on some shots and at
times was caught out of posi-
tion."
Michigan responded from the'
early setback by copping four1
of the next five singles matches.

As a result, DeJesus was the
only double winner for Mich-
igan. "Freddie was just out-
standing today," Eisner beam-,
ed. "He was just terrific."
The Wolverine coach praised
the Crimson netters. "Alabama
is very strong and will demon-
strate this in the losers bracket.
I think they will just charge
right through there."
"We have the best teams inj
the country here," Eisner con-
tinued. "There are 16 trams
and all were hand-picked to
appear in this tournament."
