It was the icing on the cake-so to
speak-to a great weekend of sports
for Michigan fans, as the icers downed
Minnesota, 7-5, to sweep its two game
series.
All-ASmerican Dave Debol scored
two goals, his 99th and 100th in a
Wolverine uniform, earning honors as
the first star of the game.
While Debol played just another
game in his outstanding career, fresh-
man goalie Rudy Varvari was pressed
into service for the first time when
starter Frank Zimmerman was hit by a
hard shot on the elbow.
VARVARI HAD a credible debut,
stopping 26 of 31 shots and came up with
a few difficult saves when the team
needed themthe most.

The game started out exactly like
Friday night's contest as the Gophers
scored the game's first goal on the first
shot on net. But, also like the first game
of the series, Minnesota's 1-0 lead did
not stand up for long:
Debol scored the first of his pair, a
power play at 10:10 and Dan Lerg
followed up with a blistering shot only a
minute and a half later and Michigan
never trailed after that.
The Gophers fell deeper into a rut as
Lerg and Kip Maurer tallied 21 seconds
apart in the second period to make the
score Michigan, 4-1.
THEN MINNESOTA hounded the
Wolverines into numerous mistakes
and took advantage of a rash of
penalties on both squads to tie the game
sweep
at 4-4.
But Debol popped in another power
play and the Wolverines never
relinquished the lead.
Less than three minutes later, the
Wolverines electrified the crowd of
4,264 with their penalty killing.
WITH JOHN McCahill in the box,
Dan Hoene and Ben Kawa both knocked
in shots, at 18:29 and 18:41 respectively,
to claim Michigan's first two short-
handed goals of the season.
Michigan is now 6-2 in the WCHA (8-2
overall) which puts them no worse than
second place pending the outcome of
Notre Dame's game at first place Den-
ver. Minnesota falls to 5-3 in the league.
The Wolverines next action is next
weekend at Colorado College.

IOWA CITY - Tailback Steve Smith ran 10 yards for a touchdown and
quarterback Ed Smith hit Jim Earley on a 2-yard touchdown pass as Michigan
State defeated Iowa 22-16 in a game completed in near darkness yesterday.
Hans Nielsen kicked field goals of 4 and 19 yards for the Spartans, in-
creasing his Big Ten Conference record to 44 three-pointers.
Iowa kicker Dave Holsclaw booted field goals of 47, 48 and 51 yards with the
help of a cold, 30-mile-an-hour wind, breaking Hawkeye records for distance
and number of field goals in a season.
Nick Quartaro held the old Iowa record with a 50-yard kick, and Quartaro
shared the old season mark of seven with Al Schuette.

MINNEAPOLIS - Kent Kitzmann rushed for 154 yards, Paul Rogind
kicked two field goals and Marion Barber ran 33 yards for a touchdown yester-

sidelines for the towndown. Rogind kicked his 31st straight extra point over two
seasons to tie a school record.

finish since 1968, and it marked the first time Indiana has beaten Purdue two
years in a row since 1946-47.

touchdown on a 6-yard run that tied the game at 7-7 in the second quarter.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. - Arkansas running back Ben Cowins scored two
touchdowns and rushed for 115 yards on 19 carries as the eighth-ranked Razor-
backs whipped Southern Methodist University 47-7 yesterday in a final attempt
to impress bowl representatives.
The victory boosted Arkansas' won-lost record to 9-1.
Cowins' first touchdown run gave Arkansas a 7-0 lead with less than six
minutes remaining in the first period. Cowins' 28-yard scoring burst up the
middle made it 27-7 in the opening two minutes of the third period.
Kentucky 21, Tennessee 17
LEXINGTON, Ky. - Derrick Ramsey's 1-yard plunge capped an 80-yard
fourth-quarter touchdown drive that gave seventh-ranked Kentucky a 21-17
Southeastern Conference comeback football victory over Tennessee yesterday.
-The Wildcats, completing their best season in 27 years with a 10-1 record,
got the winning drive under way on a 36-yard pass from reserve quarterback
Mike Deaton to Felix Wilson.
Ramsey, playing despite a bruised shoulder, returned on a third-and-five
situation at the Volunteer 39, hammered 6 yards on the first play and drove his
team the distance.
Ramsey's score came with 5:29 left in the game and completed Kentucky's
first perfect season in conference competition with a 6-0 record.
Kentucky is under probation and therefore ineligible for the SEC title and
bowl play.
