Tuesday, March 15, 1977 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Ereven , full court BLOOMINGTONr * By TOM CAMERON IJHEY SAY that Johnny Orr doesn't really need the scare like Holy Cross gave Michigan. He's under enough pressure as it is, keeping that number one status and all, and when an unher- alded team like Holy Cross comes along and is within two points with 5 minutes to go - 'well, that just turns his hair gray and makes it fall out. Orr just doesn't have that much hair to spare. This season, the casual, easy going Orr was turned into a worrisome nail-biter. The pressure was getting so bad, in fact, rumors of retirement spread. Orr didn't exactly kill that rumor at the Saturday night press conference before the game. "I've got high blood pressure. I've: got stomach troubles. I've got hemorrhoids," Orr said. "Hell, I've got everything. If we win the championship, and if I was offered a good job, I'd seriously consider not coming back next year" So the retirement rumor was substantiated and papers all around started repeating howl Orr might retire if the Wolverines went all the way this year. "I'm not going to retire at all," is what Orr really feels, though. "I said I'd only retire if I was offered a better job, and it would have to be quite a job to be better than being a basketball coach. They'd have to pay me half a million dollars. "I don't make much money here, but there are a lot of good people here and I like it. I"m not going anywhere," Orr said. And as for the pressure, Orr said, "it's Iot better being number one than number six. There's more pressure on you when you lose!t "Some people say," Orr continued, "that if we don't win it all our season will have been a failure. Could you ever call a season as successful as ours a failure?", To niany Michigan fans, it would be a disappointment if Michigan did not take it all for a change. The fans are tired of always being the bridesmaid. During the first 35 minutes of Sunday's NCAA opening round i Oh! Pressure's on 4 t game, there were some serious questions as to whether or not Michigan was even going to advance. Michigan needed a large dose of Rickey Green, who scored a career high 35 points while dishing out another nine assists, a few ounces of Johnny Rob rebounds in the second half, and Dave Baxter as a substitute ingredient to come in when Michigan was ready to pull it out. "Rickey surprised me," Orr said, "to come back and shoot and move like he did (after his hip injury at Illinois). That's a sign of a great basketball player." Even Green admitted that it was probably the greatest game of his life. Tickets tough to get All of Michigan's 750 alloted tickets for the NCAA Mid- east Regional in Lexington, Ky were sold yesterday. The ticket ,office may receive additional $14 tickets to- day. "We're trying to get a couple of hundred more tic- kets," said ticket manager Al Renfrew, "But I don't know if we will." Renfrew noted that because neither Tennessee (Southeast Conference champ) nor Kentucky will par- ticipate in this regional, tickets should be available in Lexington. Should the Wolverines win the regional they would ad- vance to the NCAA finals in Atlanta. "Tickets for Atlanta will be really tight," said Renfrew. Michigan would receive 1,000 $28 tickets which will be sold on a first come first serve basis beginning at 8:00 a.m. Monday, March 21. Hockey tickets are also hard to come by. The Wolver- ines play for the WCHA championship Wednesday and Thursday in Madison. Michigan received but 70 tickets for this series, most of which will go to parents of the players. Others interested should call the ticket office (764-0247) where Renfrew promised to help in obtaining the $4 a game tickets. Michigan did need the super effort by Green.(16-20 from the field) to offset a great effort by Holy Cross. You see, Holy Cross was a good, well-coached team. "We're not going to blow out anybody anymore," Frieder said. "It's hard for some to imagine, but that's a good basket- ball team (Holy Cross) and they played hard. We expected them to be very tough. Many people really didn't." It came down to a fine performance by Baxter coming off the' bench to secure the win for Michigan. After the score was 72-70, a Baxter assist followed by three Baxter buckets gave Michigan the ten point lead it needed to cruise the rest of the game with. "When we came into the game," said Holy Cross coach George Blaney," we felt Baxter may have been the best guard Michigan had." And now? "Well, Rickey Green IS. pretty good." It was Baxter, however, that provided Michigan with the final spurt that brought it over the top. And, if Michigan intends to go to the Omni, it needs a sparkplug - much like Staton was last year. And Dave Baxter is ready . . especially for the upcoming Detroit game. "I want Detroit," Baxter, from Detroit Lutheran West, con- tinued. "BAXTER wants Detroit! Dick Vitale (U-D's head coach)! has been talking about Michigan. and how bad he wants us. We'll see Thursday. You . . be there." I will. Aloha. TUESDAY SPECIAL 5-10 P.M.° ALLYUCAN EAT!

Red as in red hot, winners of their last 12, straight, blazing like a team on fire into the WCHA finals against Wisconsin in Madison tomorrow and Thurs- day nights. But, to get there, the Wolver- ines needed a little outside as- sistance, and got it. THE REGULAR season ended on a high note with a sweep of; Michigan State, 6-3 here end 5-2 last Saturday night in East Lan- sing. 'The double defeats dropped the Spartans right out of the WCHA playoffs. In the game at State, Michi- gan defenseman Greg Natale was hit hard into the boards by, MSU's Russ Welch with only 17 seconds remaining in the game. The blow broke Natale's collar- bone, prematurely ending the stellar senior's season.; In the first round of the play-' offs, the Wolverines drew sixth place Michigan Tech, the one team Michigan Coach Dan Far-' rell didn't want to meet. TECH WON three of five games with Michigan during the regular season and in the Great Lakes Tournament. Both teams scored 25 goals in those five games. But this time Michigan took' the lead early each night and hung on for hard fought 6-4, 5-2 wins. At first, "it appeared that the Wolverines would be in South Bend to battle Notre Dame in the semi-finals. Notre Dame beat its first round opponent, Minnesota, 5-1, the first night. BUT, IN A stunning reversal, the Gophers blasted the Irish, 9-2, to advance to the semi-finals at Wisconsin. Michigan, with the second best record of the remaining teams, was awarded the final home spot against Denver. In the regular season, Michi- gan recorded its first four-game sweep of Denver in hockey his- tory., Pioneer Coach Murray Armstrong warned that the Wol- verines were the one team that he didn't want to face in the playoffs.# finals MICHIGAN enjoyed winning against Denver so much that it beat the Pioneers 6-4 last Satur- day night and followed up wltfl an 11-4 shellacking much to the delight of the crowd. The Badgers got to the finals by beating Colorado College 3-1, 3-1, and Minnesota 9-5, 8-3, all games at Madison.r SLAP SHOTS: Winning 12 straight in one season ties a Michigan record and winning 26 games in a season sets a Michi- gan record, the Wolverines are now 26-14 for the year . .. Kris Manery scored the hat trick Sun- day vs. Denver, his third of the year. THE DEAN OF BEERS (Or, was yeast really responsible for the fall of the Roman Empire?) U UNIVERSITY HOUSING COUNCIL WINTER ELECT IONS w r r i i 4 As your Dean of Beer, it is my scholarly opinion that just knowing the one word for beer is not enough. You must also know the reasons why. Because only then will I, Siclinda Steinfuller, be satisfied that you have graduated from Remedial Beer Drinking. QUESTIONS: Q: 1. The best water for beer comes from: a) Big Duck Mountain. b) Underground from Tijuana. c) A small store in Macon, Ga. d) None of the above A: (d) No matter what you hear about "naturally pure" waters, virtually all brewers filter and further purify their water. But Schlitz doesn't stop there. They filter their water and then filter it again. So when they're through, it's purer than the purest springwater. Q: 2. Klages and Firibeck III are: a) Composers of famous beer drinking songs like "I Left My Shoes in Heidelberg:' b) Owners of the world's largest unknown brewery. c) Serving time in Sonoma, Calif., for impersonating Arnold the Wonder Seal. d) More expensive barleys. A: (d) Schlitz blends Klages and Firlbeck III barleys with the standard variety most brewers use because they believe it gives their beer superior flavor. Q: 3. a)' b) c): d): Hops are notorious for: Their lack of intelligence. Always getting to work late. Losing their keys. Being difficult to keep fresh. A: (d) The freshest hops make the best beer. That's why Schlitz vacuum-packs and refrigerates their hops. So they're as fresh at brewing time as they are at harvest time Q: 4. The best adjunct to beer is: a) Rice. b) Corn. c) Either rice or corn. d) What's an adjunct? A: (c) Every American brewer uses rice or corn to lighten the flavor of their beer. This is called an adjunct. But Schlitz knows how to use either grain inter- changeably. So they're never at the mercy of an unfavorable crop. And neither is the taste of their beer. Q: 5. The biggest misconception about yeast is: ) Carrying some in your pocket is good luck. b) It is good for hernias. c) It was responsible for the fall of the Roman Empire. d) To ferment beer, all you have to do is drop it in the vat. A: (d) To make beer taste right consistently, Schlitz believes the yeast has to be evenly distributed during fermentation. That's why Schlitz gently stirs in their yeast. It's part of their Balanced Fermentation process. And they're the only American brewer who does it. Q: 6. Chill-Lagering is: a) A popular German country and western singer. b) A Scandinavian winter sport played without clothes. c) A new ethnic TV comedy about the owner of an ice cube factory. d) The right way to age beer. A: (d) When Schlitz ages beer, they age it cold-very cold--down to 29.5 degrees. It's called Chill-Lagering. And it's what makes Schlitz crisp, clean and bright.
