University location oniv COUPON EXPIRES MARCH 31, 1977 I U - By DOODUS and THE ERNST As the Michigan high school basketball season draws to a close, two cage wizards have emerged from Hibernation to of- fer tdibits, trivia and truths about the four title showdowns at Crisler Arena tomorrow. In the Class A final, Brother Rice, the 1974 state champions, lock horns with the Vikings from Lansing Everett - the top ranked team in the state. Coach Bill Norton's Warriors are led by all-state guard Kevin Smith. The three year starter is a heads up ball player who is very unselfish and has a fine shooting touch. Smith is a defensive standout and could have the task of hawking Everett All-American Earvin Johnson on defense. The 6-11 Smith could pose problems for the Vikings if he can get Johnson in early foultrouble. Named last week to the Class A All-State team, the 6-8 Johnson could be the "Magic" the Vikings will need to knock off the rampaging Warriors. Johnson led his team to a 26-1 I regular season record with a 31 points per game scoring aver- age. When he wasn't ripping op- ponents with his shooting ability, Johnson grabbed rebounds at a 17 per game clip with 121 assists and 73 steals. The Warriors rely on quick- ness as they are a very small team with the exception of 6-9 center , Tim Andree. The game could very well come down to a match-up between Smith and Johnson, two Michigan recruits, although Brother Rice appearst to have more depth. DOODUS: Brother Rice by five. Smith's playmaking and overall ability, along with a strong effort from Rice's small forwards should propel the War- riors to their second state crown in four years. Rice coach Nor- ton 'expects' his team to win - and when Norton talks, people listen. THE ERNST: Everett by six. Rice might have depth, but the Vikings have the scoring threat, in-Johnson that will prove to be the difference. No other playerE in high school dominated ball games like Johnson did, and to- morrow will be no different.

Not Michigan golf coach Bill Newcomb, who feels that his Wolverines have a good shot at adding to this year's Big Ten title collection. A man who himself ranks as one of the top amateurs in Michigan, Newcomb knows what he's talking about. "I THINK WE HAVE an ex- cellent chance of moving up in the Big Ten," said Newcomb, whose teams have finished fourth in each of the last three conference tournaments. "I feel very confident that this will be the best team at Michigan since I've been coach." Why the great optimism all of a sudden, after having fin- Daily Classifieds- Get Results r i at t is ' a ____... - R in Big7 ished no better than third since 1968? "In previous years there was a large difference between our first and sixth man," Newcomb recalled. "This year that isn't true. We've got eight guys with- in a whisper of each other." OVER SPRING BREAK the linksters played in the Miami Invitational where they finish- ed eighth out of twenty teams, the best showing of any north- ern team. Sophomore Jim Marshall led the Blue putters with a 72-hole total of 308. Close by at 3091 were juniors Doug Davis and John Morgan, along with an- other sophomore, Frank Sims. Senior Captain Ken Walchuk and junior Tim Van Tongeren closed out the scoring with 310 and 317, respectively. One of Walchuk's rounds was particularly interesting. HE FINISHED the first nine holes with a 32, a whopping four strokesaunder par despite having bogeyed the ninth hole. Walchuk then made a dis- astrous eight on a par four hole, Ten title drive FRI .-SAT. $3.00 ALLSTAIR CANDERSON Concertina, Northumbrian Pipes S yet still managed to finish at one over par 73. "Now that's talent," Newcomb laughed. "You can see how balanced we are," said Newcomb "You know you're consistent when Rod Pafford, our best man in the Big Ten last year (sixth), doesn't even make our top six." "THERE ARE NO superstars on this team, nor are there any tail draggers." he summarized. Northern schools like Michi- gan have a unique dilemma in that their practice time is se- verely limited by the weather. TO COMBAT THIS, they have been practicing inside in the cramped basement of the Michi- gan Golf Course Clubhouse. "The purpose of indoor prac- tice is simply to train the mus- cles," said Newcomb. "Other than that, there's little than can be done. We've only had seven rounds outside so far this year." As a result, competing with warm weather teams such as Wake Forest and Georgia is dif- ficult. wise, we're as good as anyone," said assistant coach Jim Lipe. "It's just that we haven't play- ed as much." Last year's runaway cham- pion, Ohio State, figures to be just as tough this spring. "They've been building their program for three years," agreed Newcomb. "In 1978, when they host the nationals, OSU wants to be ready. On any given day however, I feel we can play with them." ROUNDING OUT the squad are freshmen Kevin Crouch, Mike Sullivan and Phil Mokris along with junior Bruce Patter- son. "With the balance we've got, each of these men will see ac- tion," said Newcomb. "It'll be tough deciding who to play each time." The golfers next competition will be the Kepler Invitational, on April 15-17 with the Big Ten Meet May 14th in East Lansing. g Without a doubt the fin- est concertina player in the w o r I d, his perform- ances & recordings have helped to inspire an inter- national revival of this 150 year old instrument. 0 Thurs.-VINNY TUFO, Irish fiddle music Sun. - FRANK WAKEFIELD and his band Bluegrass marndolin virtuoso-$3.00 "M E C H A NICALLY, talent r ~g 1321 Sout h University 769-174 Daytime T.V.
