However, the margin was narrowed the following week- end when the Wolverines only pull-i ed out a 19-13 victory against Ohio University. A 31-6 win against Penn State, which happened to be undefeated in six straight seasons, gave the team the necessary momentum to literally smother the seasons of Ohio State, Northwestern, Indiana, Purdue and Illinois with the re- spective scoring of 31-6, 22-12, 35-9, 39-2 and 39-3. UNTIL L A S T weekend, the team's mind was, if not conscious- ly, then unconsciously, on Iowa and Minnesota, which along with Mich- igan and Moo U. comprised the four-way fight for the title. Michigan barely slipped by Iowa 18-17, and then eased by Minne- sota 20-12, thus crushing the Hawk- eyes' and Gophers' hopes of claim-' ing the crown. Now, with today's imoending match, one must look at the Wcl- verines individually. The team boasts the prowess of four Big Ten . Conference leaders. Jerry Hubbard hugs a 10-0 record in dual meets ' this season in the 150-pound class and was selected to represent the East in the East-West All Star Meet. This honor was also bestowed on 118-pounder Jim Brown who claims an impressive 8-1 mark, a great aid to the team's effort. Heavyweight Gary Ernst actually turned down the chance to wrestle in the All Star meet in prepara- tion for the match with MSU. What. more can be said of this unselfish sacrifice for the team? Nevertheless, Ernst can rely on NBA Standings MICHIGAN STATE'S lineup is similarly balanced but there are some noticeable standouts in Tom Milkovich and Rick Greene. Milkovich, a senior in the 142 pound slot, is a NCAA champion, a two-time Midlands chamo ind a three-time winner of the Big Ten crown. He has only lost one match in the last two years. MSU Coach Grady Peninger asserts, "If there is a better wrestler in the country, I've got to see him first." Teammate Rick Greene at the 158 pound position is thought to be a future NCAA champion. Now only a sophomore, Greene camne to State last winter from Temple University. His move appears to have been a great asset to the Spartan team.

His tremendous versatility has allowed Stager, to maneuver other swim- mers into needed areas. Szuba's snecialty, the 400 individual med- ley not ordinarily swum in dual meets, will be on the card today. His onponent will be Olympic ace Hall, who is the national champion. Much talk has cen- tered around the Szuba-Hall con- frontation, but today is not the race that will matter. The NCAA championship in Tennessee is the real battleground. Michigan's strength is, of course, not limited to Szuba alone. In the breaststroke a 1-2-3 Michigan finish is quite likely. Stu Isaac, Pat I Bauer, and Canadian Olympian Mike Whitaker are three of the best breaststrokers in the confer- ence. The sprint events look good for Michigan as Ray McCullough and Jose Aranha have 'been per- forming well. Diving also has been a pleas- ant surprise with Joe Crawford, Dick Quint, and Steve Schenthal giving the Wolverines much need- ed dual meet points. BUCKS MAUL LAKERS: Hot Pistons clip Celts Daily Photo by STEVE KAGAN By The Associated Press BOSTON - The Detroit Pistons, sparked by Bob Lanier and Dave Bing, posted their sixth consecutive victory last night, defeating theI Boston Celtics 104-95 in a National Basketball Association upset.

Lyle, who turned to boxing after serving 7% years in prison for second-degree murder, went into the fight with a 19-0 record that included 17 knockouts, but he was no match for Quarry. About midway in the first round Quarry missed with a left hook 'ut suddenly flashed a right hand to the head that buckled Lyle's knees. Quarry was in command the rest of the way. Quarry, fighting for the second time since coming back after a brief retirement, hurt Lyle with body shots and shook him several times with short right hands and winging left hooks to the head. He had Lyle in serious trouble in the fifth and eighth rounds, but the Denver fighter would not go down. Referee Waldemir Schmidt scored it seven rounds for Quarry, four rounds for Lyle and one round even. Judge Tony Castellano had it 10-2 for Quarry and Judge Bill Recht had it 9-2-1 for Quarry. The Associated Press favored Quarry 10-2. (12), or the unidentified Maize and Blue attacker, could have taken the shot.
