I SEEK VARSITY STATUS: Stickmen JOBS The PILOT PROGRAM is seeking a woman graduate student for a resi- dent fellow position. We need a cre- ative person who can teach a course and wants to participate in an excit- start practice ing experimental educational pro- gram. Contact immediately Danny Wilibach, coordirvotor Pilot Program, Alice Lloyd Hall, 764-7521 By BOB HEUER Hang on to your hats, folks. It's -the start of another rip roaring, rock'em-sock'em lacrosse season at Michigan. Well, not quite. Actually this is only Fall practice, with regular season action getting under way next spring. But there's still plenty of action going on down at the Tartan Turf practice field where the stickmen toil in con- scientious anonymity. The Wolverine lacrosse team currently labors under the some- what dubious "club sport" ban- ner. This status enables gradu- ate students to play on thegteam but it prohibits any sort of re- cruiting or financial aid to play- ers or coaches.j Grad students have formed the core of Michigan teams in the past' but that may not be the case this year with six of last year's tenI grads gone. With a strong nucleus of under- grads " this year, the team appears ready for varsity status. Coach Bob Kaman, with the team's backing, has petitioned athletic Director Don Canham and the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics, requesting the elevation of lacrosse to a varsity sport. A decision by the Board is still pending. Administrative decisions aside, the lacrosse team will begin practicing Wednesday, September 15. Much of the Autumn drills, which run through the end of Oc- tober,.are devoted to teaching the fundamentals of the game to the newcomers, many of whom are playing the sport for the first time. Scrimmages and practice games will abound, with Wayne State and Notre Dame tentatively scled- uled so far. The Irish tied Michi- gan for the championship in the Midwest Club Lacrosse Associa- tion last year. Both teams posted 4-2 league records with the Irish taking a disputed 6-5 decision from the Wolverines in their only meet- ing of the season. The loss to Notre Dame climax- ed a frustrating season which saw the Wolverines lose four times by a single goal en route to a 6-4, overall record. Another sore point was a 7-6 loss to Michigan State to regain the form that brought a conference championship and an 8-1 record to Michigan in 1971. The Wolverines lose three ex- perienced midfielders in Curt Ad- kisson, Chico Rogers, and Steve Hart. Also gone are stalwart crease defenseman Dave Fischer and attackmen Carl Burns and Skip Flanagan. Burns led last year's teamin scoring and was voted the most valuable offensive player by his teammates. Second and third leading scorers Dick Dean and Don Holman are returning. Dean in the role of player-coach. - Those two along with tri-cap- tains Jay Johnson, Dan Lamble, and Pete Lodwick will form a strong nucleus for this year's squad. Johnson, a standout in goal last season, is switching to attack where his speed and strengthI can be better utilized. Lamble joins Dean as the only two 4x- perienced midfielders. Lodwick will anchor the defense. The transition of Johnson leaves a big auestion mark i ca. at Joining Lodwick on defense will be veterans Bo Cooper and Tim Cotter. Cotter sat out the entire 1972 campaign but should be in good shape to help the team this year. Fred Jones, a medical in- tern, is also being counted on to bolster the defense. Pete Drehman will be back at the midfield position while senior Craig Bradley will probably team up with Holman and Dennis Burd- ziak to form the attacking line. Other returnees include senior Eric Kisischke and junior Dave Ferworn. And rumor has it that, if the sport retains its club status, As- sistant Coach Bob Digiovanni will don a uniform next spring. Kaman called Digiovanni "the best crease attackman in the Midwest. Whether or not the team gains varsity status and when may have a lot to do with how ,the 1973 la- crosse season turns out tat Michi- gan. If the decision to go varsity is made early in the fall, it will enable Kaman to schedule varsity teams exclusively, next spring, rather than the often more ex- hr Stiickmen set I for score~ Buy WITH CON-FIDENCE ULRICH'S GUARANTEE: IF OUR PRICES ARE NOT COMPETITIVE-A FULL REFUND WILL BE GIVEN as long as the item is RETURNED within TWO WEEKS with CASH REG.

If the decision is not made un- til just before the season starts tJhe stickers will have to play their rugged club schedule without the benefit of their grad students. Either way, according to Ka- man, the team will be champion- ship material. "Every fall we wonder how we're going to field a decent team with all the guys we've lost," said Kaman. "But we always seem to get enough talent to mold a winning ,unit." A 14-5 record over the last two years speaks well for Kaman's optimism.
