PLEASANT - A costly injury and a post-Big Ten championships slump proved fatal to the Michigan women's gymnastics team as it bowed to Central Michi- gan 11932 to 125.12. Co-captain Ginger Robey won the all-around title with a score of 32.36. Robey took first in both floor exercise and vaulting and finished second in the balance beam and uneven bars. "The injury of our top performer Sara Flom and a poor showing on the uneven bars pretty much sum up .the reasons for our loss," said disappointed Michigan coach Anne Cornell. Flom withdrew from the meet after irritating calcium deposits in her knee on a vaulting attempt. The women get a needed rest before they participate in the state championship meet in East Lansing on Feb- ruary 25.

Productions present as a "'Friendshipment" benefit: And that's another lesson that The Daily will help me take away from Ann Arbor. I knew the Roosevelt quote before I ever came here, but seeing the faces on the team on those two occasions I know now that there are going to be times when I simply cannot win, no matter how muTh I want to or try. All I can do is strive to be as close to my potential as I can. and if I do that, I'm not toing to worry, all that much over the eventual outcome. There's been a lot more to The Daily. Through it, I've been in a broad range of situations and 'places. That's important to me, because I'm not nearly so hesitant to try new things or ex- plore new fields as I once was. There's a lot of life to grab out there . . . and I may be able to grab a little more of it snow. And the people, the people. I've been fortunate enough to meet a number of Great People, both famous ones at sport- ing events and people on the staff, who should probably be called great, not Great. But having seen the Great ones, may- be I can predict who will be Great eventually (You know who you are, Paul.). The clock runs out on all of this and more in just a few days. The temptation is to be very sad especially when I look at the two "Michigan is No. 1" Sports Illustrated covers on my door. Somehow they just don't look the same anymore. But this wound is self-healing, I think. The Daily has been the single greatest part of my college experience . . . but it's given enough to me to go onward. I'll have learned a lot (I hope) in my time at Michigan. Most of it at 420 Maynard Street . . . But, hell, there's a lot of life left to grab. The big game is just beginning .
