It was close but no cigar for
the Michigan hockey team as
Wisconsin handed the Wolver-
ines their sixth straight defeat,
3-2, last night at Yost Ice Ar-
ena.
Badger Mike Meeker scored
twice, including the game win-
ner at 7:20 of the third period,
in a, fast moving, hard-hitting
game played before 4,124 appre-
ciative fans.

goalie Rick Palmer and it paid
off as Meeker tied the game
at 1-1 for the second time.
The second period was much
like the first. Both teams came
out of the dressing rooms fly-
ing and the action never let up.
There were good scoring chanc-
es for each team, but only one
goal was scored in the period.
Mike Evans faked Palmer out,

of position, but hit the side of
the net, then Palmer made two
more saves on close-in shots.
Baretta got into. the act with
a picturesque stop of Gary Mor-
rison's hard drive and foiled De-
bol on a breakaway.
Palmer countered with a save
on Lundeen's breakaway, but
the same pair was involved in
the period's only goal.

bound with Palmer sprawled
on the ice, Lundeen shot the
puck past ,the goalie to give
the Badgers a 2-1 lead.
The Wolverines deadlocked the
game only 28 seconds into the
third period.
Dan Lerg and Dan Hoene rac-
ed up the ice on a two-on-one.
Hoene's shot and Lerg's re-
bound shot were both blocked
by Baretta, but the Badger goal-
ie couldn't cover the puck and
watched helplessly as Hoene
stuffed the puck into the net.
Throughout the game both
teams put on an exhibition of
skating and hitting that pleas-
ed the small but noisy crowd
which included about 80 Bad-
ger Backers.
After the game Wisconsin
coach Bob Johnson gave his ob-
servations on the contest, the
third straight with a one-goal
margin of victory between these
two teams.
"We had good checking over-
all. The wingers assumed their
responsibilities real well.
"I thought we skated quite
well," said Johnson, then switch-
ing topics, "Palmer made some
key saves, but on some of our
better opportunities' we missed'
the net."
Johnson also talked about an-
other Wisconsin goal disallowed
during the game.

In the middle period Wiscon-
sin's John Taft skated in front
of the net, the puck hit him and
went into the net. After a brief
pause, the referee -waved the
goal off.
"He (the referee) signaled
it a goal, then he changed his
mind," Johnson said. "The
puck hit Taft's knee and went
into the net, Taft didn't direct
it into the net and I think
it should have, counted."
Farrell talked about the game
in a favorable tone. "We play-
ed as well as we can play and
if we keep it up, we're going
to give people trouble," he said.
"We got great goaltending and
super penalty killing."
Before last night's game, the
Badgers scored on 40 per cent
of their power plays, but were
stymied by the Wolverines all
eight times.
"The big thing now psycho-
logically is just to keep go-
ing," Farrell said in reference
to the six straight losses.
"We're in good spirits. Of the
six games, three have been
heartbreakers."
The Wolverines and the Bad-
gers conclude their two game
series tonight at Yost. Game
time is 7:30 p.m.

In a meet determined by one-
tenth of a point, the Michigan
men's gymnastics team defeated
Indiana last night, 207.1-207.0, in
Bloomington.
"It was a, real pressure per-
formance," said an excited
Coach Newt Loken. "It's a tre-
mendous tribute to the whole
team."
NIGEL ROTHWELL turned in
a 52.7 all-around mark, including
a 9.0 in the floor exercise and a
9.2 in the vault. Co-captain
Chuck Ventura turned in a per-
sonal high of 9.15 in the pommel
horse on his way to a 47.65 all-
around score.
The high score of the meet
was turned in by Michigan's
John Carritore, who notched a
9.4 on the parallel bars. Chuck
Stillerman brought the floor ex-
ercise crown to the Blue gym-
nasts with a 9.2 point routine.
The real drama in the meet
came in the final event, the high
bar. Michigan was down by .15
of a point and the pressure was
on Doug Zahour and Bob Creek
as they started their routines.
Both teams. with identical 2-1
records, needed to win this event
to stay above .500.
The pair came through though,
Creek with a 9.2 and Zahour
with a 9.15 mark.

take on Chicago State in an

forward to a very fast, aggres-

The Cougars hold a 4-3 re-

Purdue in their only other Big

"It is good to be home,"
said Borders. "The road

Things should come together
