JORDAN, who finished with 13 points tying with frosh Eu- gene Parker for Purdue high point honors, gave the Boiler- makers a lead that seemed good enough to win the game in reg- ulation time, 64-60. But Bob Svete put in two straight field goals to tie the game and send it into overtime. Purdue had the ball leading 64- 62 with eight seconds left but turned the ball over on a be- hand-the-back-pass. SVETE then tied it.

Hope springs eternal . .-"- . for slumping Wolverines, By BILL STIEG APPARENTLY, THE Ann Arbor Optimists Club has opened aE new branch-at Crisler Arena. Despite two losses in a row, and a difficult road trip ahead, the Wolverines show no signs of giving up, and some could evens find a silver lining in their current slump. "These two losses should have a good effect," said co- 1 captain Joe Johnson yesterday. "It could help us pull together." The squad's other senior, co-captain C.J. Kupec, claimede that things could be worse.e "It could really have hurt if we didn't have the charac-V ter we have," maintained Kupec. "This team is too matureI to say 'hang it up' now.td s Though the team is trying hard to put Saturday's loss to Michigan State behind it, and concentrate on this weekend's trip to Iowa and Minnesota, it should be a while before the East Lansing nightmare is forgotten. The game was an exercise in c frustration, replete with missed opportunities and dumb mis-s takes.b "We watched the films last night for three and a half hours,"v said head coach Johnny Orr, sighing like a movie director who 3 just can't get a scene to work right. r' "We had the chances," he explained, "but we blew them by missing free throws and layups. We still thought we had a chance as late as two minutes left. "As badly as we were playing, State wasn't playing much better. We should have been blown out by twenty or thirty points, but State kept turning it over and over." Orr went on to explain that Michigan's defense on the weak side, away from the ball, is especially hurting the team. The players are doing well when their man has the ball, he said, but have a tendency to lose track of him when the ball isf passed to the other side of the court. "We made mistakes at crucial times," he added. "They made mistakes, too, but not at crucial times." The consecutive losses haven't caused Orr to hit thej panic button, but there will be some changes made. Tof start with, Orr has decided to close practices for a couple of days, in the tradition of Bo Schembechler. "We'll go back to fundamentals," Orr stated. "And we'll try to remember how we won and were a good team last year." Yesterday's practice was agrueling session of drills, topped with 21 wind sprints-one for every point State scored over the team's defensive goal of 65. Kupec saw some encouraging signs in yesterday's work- out. "Today's practice showed a resurgence of our old form," he observed. "Playing two, three games a week, has hurt us," pointing out that yesterday was the first real workout in a long time. For more than a month, the prac- tices had been prearation for upcoming games. Orr and his staff also plan to straighten out some smallerr problems, from havingsthe players get to practice earlier to keeping the locker room neater. Little things like that, main- tains Orr, can sometimes add up to more serious trouble. } . During practice, the coaches and players will "break down" defense and offense, trying to rebuild some of the plays that have deteriorated over the first twelve games. Included in Orr's plans are some new offensive patterns designed to get more points out of Kupec. "Last year," Orr recalled, "someone would have tof go over and help out against Campy (Russell), and leave C.J. open for a shot. But now they're not bothering the others as much, and C.J. is having trouble. "We'll put a couple things in this week to free him, be- cause he's our best shooter." For the Wolverines' sake, the changes will hopefully work, and can be used this weekend against Iowa-no pushover, especially in Iowa City-and sixteenth-ranked Minnesota. With two Big Ten losses already, they can't afford any more games like the last couple, and still hope for an NCAA berth. This year, runners-up in the major conferences can be considered for placement in the Regionals along with at-large teams. A strong second-place finish can then give a team a shot at the national championship. "For us to win the conference championship," admits Orr, "would be very difficult. We do have an excellent chance to go to a post-season tournament, though." Indeed, Michigan's non-conference mark of 7-1 allows it to lose a handful of Big Ten games and still own a won-lost record -A 6sn, .. r 44.,..ft a r A nr .NTT tnr nm nt Woien UPThe Michigan women's bas- ketball team opens its season tonight as they travel to Ypsi- lanti to meet Eastern Michi- gan's squad.
