ABA to strike? NEW YORK (P) - Seven American Basketball Associa- tion teams have voted to strike and the secretary of the ABA Players' Association said last night that, barring a last-min- ute settlement, the league's regular season will not begin as scheduled tonight. * Moments before he swung at one of Harry Parker's high fast balls on a 2-2 count and sent the ball soaring over the right cen- ter field fence between the 371 and 396-foot signs, an apple was Then came a tennis ball and an egg. "I wasn't mad at anybody,"I Rose insisted. "I thought some of those profane signs were uncalled for. But the reason I tried so hard was that we got our pants kicked off us Monday and we kept blow- ing opportunities in this game.". The New York Mets' locker room was logically subdued but confi- dent after the loss. "Things are still all right," pitcher Tug McGraw said. "We still have the big game tomor- row." The Mets made several spectacu- lar plays behind McGraw, who came in relief of starter George Stone, including a sparkling catch by Rusty Staub in right field in the 11th inning. Staub smashed in- to the right field wall after the catch, injuring his right shoulder and is questionable for today's game. M-ets; edge Until Rose's winning hit, the fourth game of the National League playoffs was full of other pulsating drama. The Mets had taken a 1-0 lead in the third inning on Felix Millan's run-scoring single and Stone pro- tected that slim advantage until the seventh. At that point, Tony Perez slugged a home run, his first hit in 15 at-bats in this series, to tie the score at 1-1. After Stone walked Andy Kosco with two out, McGraw came on the scene and pitched scoreless relief through the 11th inning. But he constantly worked out of jams, es- pecially two bases-loaded problems in the ninth and 10th innings. * * * Oakland wins OAKLAND-"I was looking for a slider, and I got it," said Oak- land shortstop Bert Campaneris whose 11th-inning home run brought the A's a 2-1 third game victory over Baltimore yesterday in the American League playoffs. The 155-pound infielder said he was trying only to pull a base hit to left when he connected with an 0-1 pitch and drove it 360 feet over the left field fence beyond the out- stretched glove of Don Baylor. It was only the fourth hit off the Orioles' 36 - year - old left - handed Mike Cuellar. "It felt pretty good," Camp- aneris said. "It's got to be my biggest home run ever. You know I got only four this year." Manager Dick Williams of the A's said, "I'm very thrilled that we are ahead 2-1 in the playoffs. We have a well-rested Vida Blue for Wednesday, and Blue can beat anyone on any given day." Blue will be up against right- hander Jim Palmer who beat the A's 6-0 and struck out 12 in the opener. Williams said, "I respect Palmer, but I also respect Blue, and maybe Vida has a little some- thing he would like to show Wed- nesday."

His usually mobile left hand is encased in a heavy plaster cast as the result of a broken wrist sustained two weeks before the Iowa opener. It is a difficult thing for an athlete to spend a year on the bench with an injury but it is especially tough for Banks. It bothers him; not the injury itself but the inactivity. Banks gets that "funny feeling" each Saturday when he stands on the sidelines with the other walking wounded-watch- ing his friends and teammates perform while he is prevented from doing anything to help them. "It bothers me that I can't practice," stated the Cleve- land, Ohio native. "But that's why I'm working out hard now. You can say it's to keep my mind sane." Banks will be red-shirted this season and receive another year's eligibility so he plans to use the layoff to full advantage. "Im glad I have a full year to work out," explained Banks. "I want to be a lot stronger next season. I've got to be stronger. "I'm not worried about getting out of condition. The only thing I might lose is my wind, not my speed. That is why I'm lifting weights from now until next football season-for my wind. Also the year's layoff should make me a better person, both physically and mentally." Aside from quarterback, the toughest position to crack into the starting Wolverine eleven is at tailback. Michigan is blessed with a wealth of fine runners, four of whom play tailback. Chuck Heater, Gil Chapman, and Gordie Bell are among the best tailbacks in the country. Banks had started last season at the tailback slot but lost the job to Heater after the Michigan State game. And that bothers him, too. "I know I'm good," exclaimed Banks, "and I know I can play. It does bother me when I'm not starting but when I don't, I always make sure that I'm always ready to play. It's when I don't play in the game at all that I really get depressed. But all that is going to change." Determined to remain a tailback, Banks scffs at the idea of switching to any other position in order to play more. "I want to be a runner," he said. "If I were going to change then I wouldn't be lifting weights and working out this hard." This is the same type of intense determination with which Banks plays the game. "I play football to know that I'm the best and that the team I'm on is the best. I've never been on a team, high school or college, which has lost more than one game a season. I feel that the most important thing for a player to do is to contribute to his team's success." As a player, Banks is blessed with exceptional speed and despite his apparent lack of size (5-10, 185), he is also an excellent blocker. During his sophomore campaign, Banks averaged 5.2 yards per carry while scoring four touchdowns. Last year he scampered for 273 yards. But it is the one yard Banks didn't gain, that the fans remember most. Nov. 25, 1972, Columbus, Ohio. Late in the fourth quarter. Third down and goal to go on the Buckeye one. "I wouldn't say I'd do anything different," Banks reminisced, "because I know that I got into the end zone. But what can you do when the referee says otherwise. You can't argue with the official. You know you've done your best. We out played them, out hit them . . . it just didn't show up on the scoreboard." Banks peaks his talents and emotions for the Ohio State game. "For me, they can make it a one-game season. Ohio State is the team I get the most satisfaction beating; not just getting by, but really beating them. "That is the game I hit the hardest, sustain my blocks the longest and play the best." AP Photo CINCY'S Pete Rose picks on the last of three Harry Parker fastballs, and sends it into dreamland in yesterday's 2-1 win over the "Miracle" Mets. Rose raced around the bases triumphantly secure in the knowledge that he and his fellow Reds have one more shot today at ending the Mets' pennant hopes. "OUR GOALTENDING looks like it will be very good from what I've seen, and our defense should be tremendous," Farrell added. He also commented on some of the little problems that arise with the transfer to a new facility and con- cluded, "It will take a year for IMPROVEMENT CONTINUES Spartan By LEBA HERTZ I spear takes. aim 1.

The Spar- tans, who appeared to be on the way to a long rough season, have continually improved in each game played. In this year's opening game against Northwestern, the Spar- tans were defeated by a score of 14-10. They managed to surren- der 196 yards rushing to the Wild- cats while gaining only 150. MSU fumbled six times with North- western recovering the ball half of the time. The leading rusher for State was fullback Clarence Bullock averaging 7.0 yards per carry. Against Syracuse, the Spartans looked as if they were in dire straits. They managed to beat the Orange by a score of 14-8 but the winning touchdown for MSU came in the fourth quarter on a 22 yard run by junior quar- terback Charlie Baggett. State's offense showed signs of improvement against UCLA by scoring 21 points. However its defense could not stand up to the mighty Uclan offense. The spark- ling play for MSU was a spectac- ular 95 yard kickoff return by co- daily sports NIGHT EDITOR: BRIAN DEMING captain Mike Holt who made his debut in the UCLA game after missing the first two games due to a shoulder injury. The Notre Dame game must have given the Spartan defense confidence. State held the mighty Irish to only two touchdowns in a losing 14-10 effort. Although the Irish rolled up 272 yards in the first half, the Spartans stopped their attack by limiting Notre Dame to only 67 yards in the third and fourth quarters. Stolz' primary hope this Sat- urday is the continued improve- ment of his offense. If Mike Holt returns to full strength it should boost the Spartans' morale con- siderably. Stolz, - counting heav- ily on Holt's recovery, enthused "You bet we're glad Mike's back. Things happen when he's in there." Holt gained 69 yards in 17 car- ries against UCLA in his first game of 1973. In the last two years as wingback the senior tailback picked up 424 yards for a respectable 4.2 yard average. Holt injured a leg Saturday in the Notre Dame game, but Coach Stolz feels he'll still be ready to play. Along with Holt, the Spartans have junior David Brown (not to be confused with our own num- ber six) and sophomore Tyrone Wilson sharing the tailback po- sition. Brown moved into State's starting lineup last year against Michigan. He went on to become MSU's leading rusher with 575 yards in 11 games. Quarterback Baggett has three fine receivers in split-ends Dane Fortney and Mike Hurd and flanker Damond Mays. Fortney leads State in pass receiving with 132 yards. Against Notre Dame Fortney received only one pass for 40 yards. Hurd, who missed' the first game with inflammation of the pancreas, returns to play after missing the entire 1972 season because of. a shoulder separation. According to MSU passing coach Jimmy Ray, "Mike has a great combination going for him. He has tremendous speed, good hands and some great moves. Needless to say, Mike has a chance to be one of the finest re- ceivers in the nation." Leading the Spartan's defense is All-America candidate Bill Simpson. Simpson led the Big Ten in punt returns with an av- erage of 13.6 yards and he was tied in the conference in punting with a 40.5 average. Simpson combined with teammate Paul Haynor to form a devastating pass defense combination, each picking off six passes to lead the Big Ten in interceptions. 1 i Ski Steamboat, Colorado Jan 2-7 Total cost $185.50 AFTER STUNNING UPSET: Hurons retain C By LESLIE RIESTER Eastern Michigan's football team traveled to Western Illinois lastI Saturday with high hopes of im- proving its fourth place ranking in the college division polls. Instead Coach Dan Boisture's squad stumbled back to Ypsilanti, victims of a 24-21 upset. The Hur- ons played a good game - quar- terback Frank Kolch hit 18 of 24 passes for 254 yards and t w o touchdowns. Halfback Mike Strick- land was the game's leading rush- er with 133 yards in 22 carries for one touchdown. Unfortunately, Western Illinois played just as well. Western Illinois' Steve Mikez passed for 224 yards and three touchdowns. One of those TD's came at the. end of the first half and swung the momentum away from EMU. College division powers aren't supposed to allow 24 points. Huron safety Jeff Bixler defended the secondary's apparent weakness against the pass: I "They picked good patterns against our defense. They threw short passes and their line gave the quarterback time to throw." Bixler continued, "They gained the momentum in the second half and we just couldn't stop them." 5-0, EMU is 4-1. But the season is far from over for the Hurons. EMU defensive standout John Banazak also noted the change in momentum: "They played in- spired ball in the second half. Their defense made some good plays and their offense started moving, and the full-house of hometown fans really helped them too." Banazak and Bixler agree that) Western Illinois' offensive line did' an excellent job. "In the first' half, we sacked the quarterback' twice and' blocked a pass," claim- ed Banazak, a defensive end, add- ing, "In the second, we just could not get to him." Despite their obvious disappoint- ment over the loss, both Bixler and Banazak maintain that the team is still highly motivated for the rest of the season. EMU faces three tough games against K e n t State, Bowling Green and Central Michigan in the upcoming weeks. Kent State and Bowling Green are both Mid- American Conference powers and the rivalry with CMU has always been intense. Because of future rivalries with- in the MAC, Banazak asserts "We'd like to make a good show- ing against them now. Besides, we think we still have a good chance at a bowl invitation."
