By KATHY HENNEGHAN
It's three down and three to
go. Michigan jumped out to an
early start yesterday by landing
Mark and Marty Bodnar as well
as Mike Robinson on the first
day of the national letter-signing
period.
"We think we got off to a good
start and we're really excited,"
said Michigan assistant Bill
Frieder, who travelled to Bar-
berton, Ohio to sign the Bodnar
twins.
The 6-2 guards led Barber-
ton High School to a 72-4 rec-
ord as three-year starters, in-
cluding a streak of 51 wins.
Mark and Marty finished sec-
ond and third respectively on
the all-time Barberton scoring
list.

from the floor and 74 per cent
at the line.
The DuPage coach, Dick
Walters,- said of Robinson,
"He's one of the finest pros-
pects ever to come out of this
conference. We think he'll be
a great player at Michigan.
We're sorry to lose him after
only one season here, but he
belongs in a major program."
Today the Michigan coaches
are in Ann Arbor to entertain a
relative newcomer to the re-
cruiting list, 6-7 Paul Heurman
from Akron, Ohio. "We're quite
serious about signing him," said
Frieder, "because he's big, he's
growing and he has excellent
potential."
The coaches are still waiting
on Mike McGhee, the 6-4 swing-

man from Omaha. McGhee
visits Minnesota this weekend.
Michigan has a good chance at
6-9 Herb Williams from Colum-
bus as well as 6-0 guard Wes
Matthews from Bridgeport, Con-
necticut
Darnell Valentine, All-
American guard from Wichita,
has reportedly lost interest in
Ann Arbor although the Mich-
igan coaches were extremely
interested in him.
The story is almost the oppo-
site with Johnny Johnson, a 6-4
guard from Nichols High School
in Buffalo. Johnson attended
Johnny Orr Basketball Camp
last summer and has visited Ann
Arbor, most recently for the
post - season Basketball B u s t.
Johnson is apparently interested

in Michigan-it's a question of;
whether or not Michigan has
room for him when the dust
settles.
And nothing has changed with
Earvin Johnson - it's either
Michigan State or Michigan and
no one will know until Earvin
returns from Germany on Sun-
day.
Kevin Smith, the All-State
g u a r d from Birmingham
Brother Rice, surprised a few
people yesterday by signing
on with Dick Vitale and the
University of Detroit. Smith
was once on Michigan's list
but was squeezed out of the
picture by the Bodnars and
recruits still at large. Prior to
yesterday, Smith was thought
to be leaning toward Michigan

State or Minnesota.
And to on one's surprise, the
Spartans signed 6-8 Jay Vincent
of Lansing Eastern. Vincent had
signed a Big Ten letter of intent
with MSU earlier in the-year.
Elsewhere in the Big Ten,
most schools had nothing defi-
nite as of yesterday. Illinois
signed Mike Jones, a 6-5 swing-
man from Joliet Central High
School. And Jim Dutcher of Min-
nesota was busy trying to se-
cure 6-4% Bill Duffy from Po-
mona, California, the Southern
California Player of the Year.
Ohio State is expected to sign
Jim Smith, a 6-10 center from
Cleveland East Tech. Michigan
was interested in Smith until
OSU signed him to a Big Ten
letter of intent.

Notre Dame was still down by only one
goal until Phillips of Michigan fired one
past the Irish goalie with only 53 seconds
left in the game to close the scoring.
NOTRE DAME was led by Pat Clines
with two goals and one assist, and John
Romanelli with one goal and one assist.
"We played 200 per cent better tonight
than our last four games," said Notre
Dame coach Rich O'Leary.
"This game has decided the champion-
ship for the last three or four years, said
DiGiovanni. "We played really down and
flat tonight, and I hope we can play better
for our last two games," added DiGiovanni.

TORONTO-The Toronto Blue
Jays scored four runs in the
sixth inning on two hits and four
Detroit errors, three by short-
stop Mark Wagner, to defeat the
Tigers 7-6 yesterday.
Doug Ault led off the Toronto
sixth with his third home run
of the season to tie the score 4-4.
Gary Woods was safe on an
error by Wagner and scored
when the Tigers' shortstop was
unable to handle catcher Milt
May's throw to second on Woods'
steal attempt.
With one out, Steve Bowling
reached base on Wagner's
third error and eventually
scored from third when sec-
ond baseman Tito Fuentes'
throw to the plate on a force
attempt skipped past May for
the fourth error of the inning.
Toronto starter and former
Tiger Dave Lemanczyk, 1-1,
went 613 innings to get credit
for the vitory. He gave up all
six runs on 10 hits.
Fernando Arroyo, the second
of three Detroit pitchers, was
tagged with the loss, his first
decision of the season.
Bruins bruise
BOSTON - S t a n Jonathan,
Terry O'Reilly and Bobby Sch-
mautz scored goals in a 3 -
minute span of the first period
and the Boston Bruins went on
to post a 6-2 victory over the
Los Angeles Kings last night,
taking a 2-0 lead in their quar-
ter-final playoff series.
The Bruins hiked the score to
4-0 on Jean Ratelle's break-
away goal at 17:06 of the second

period. Schmautz, w h o had
three goals in the first game,
made it 5-0 later on a pass from
Gregg Sheppard.
The series moves to Los An-
geles for the third and fourth
games Friday and Sunday.

Islanders hot
UNIONDALE, N.Y. - N e w
York c a p t a i n Clark Gillies
scored his third consecutive
playoff game-winning goal last
night, netting a rebound at 8:30
of the third period to cap a
comeback and give the Islanders
a 4-2 triumph over the Buffalo
Sabres in the second game of
their quarter-final series.
Gillies, who scored the ser-
ies-clinching goal against Chi-
cago in the preliminary round
and the winner in game one
Monday night, netted his third
goal of the playoffs from 10
feet after rookie Buffalo goalie
Don Edwards had stopped
Jean Potvin's slap shot from
the blue line.

Flyers flop
PHILADELPHIA-Bob Neely
and Stan Weir scored a pair of
quick first-period, power-play
goals and the Toronto Maple
Leafs went on to beat the Phila-
delphia Flyers 4-1 last night in
a Stanley Cup quarter-final play-
off game.
That gave the underdog Maple
Leafs a 2-0 lead in the best-of-
seven series, with the next two
games on their home ice Friday
and Sunday.
The Maple Leafs boosted
their lead to 3-0 just 37 sec-
onds into the second period.

MONTREAL - uuy Lafleur
scored once and set up another
goal while Ken Dryden stopped
23 St. Louis shots, leading the
Montreal Canadiens to a 3-0 vic-

tory over the St. Louis Blues last
night in a quarter-final playoff
game. * * *
Bullets blaze
LANDOVER, Md.-Guard Phil
Chenier, who had been in a late-
season scoring slump, poured in
38 points last night, leading the
Washington Bullets to a 109-100
victory over the Cleveland Cav-
aliers in the opener of their
first-round playoff series.
The second game, of the best-
of-three Eastern Conference ser-
ies will be played on Cleveland's
home court Friday night.
With eight striking NBA
referees picketing outside the
Capital Centre, the game was
handled by non-striking Richie
Powers and Roger McCann of
the Eastern League. Each of-
ficial called two techrical fouls
on Cleveland, with Powers
ejecting Coach Bill Fitch with
7:22 remaining in the third
period.
Chenier equaled his season
high point total. Hayes wound
up with 21 points and Kevin
Gpavey scored 16.
The Cavaliers, playing without
injured playmaker Jim Cleam-
ons, were led by Foots Walker
with 20 points while Elmore
Smith had 17 and Campy Rus-
sell 16.

To Think About the Unthinkable.
To Remember What We Cannot
Forget.
TI. L " .A! N ..A...

It's possible to go into an annual checkup feeling terrific.
And come out knowing something's wrong. It happened to
me. The doctor found what I couldn't even feel.. a little
lump-under my arm. If I had put off the appointment for
one reason or another, I probably wouldn't be here today.
Because that little lump I couldn't feel was a melanoma, a
highly aggressive form of cancer that spreads very quickly.
It's curable-but only if found in time.
