HERB TEA, 8:30 DISCUSSION CANTERBURY hOUSE 218 N. DIVISION STREET! corner of Catherine and Division - Hardy - hopes high By KATHY HENNEGHAN Alan Hardy came back to school this fall hoping to earn a starting spot on the Michigan basketball team. The gradu- ation of Wayman Britt left a forward spot wide open. But things haven't worked out exactly the way Hardy planned - at least not yet. Hardy fought it out withs Joel Thomp- son and with his roommate Tom Staton. The coaches' nod went to Staton. Did that strain their friendship? "To tell you the truth, we don't really talk about it," Hardy replied. "Staton and I aren't going to let anything like that come between us. You're always playing against your friends, so you can't let that bother you., "I HAVE TWO PERSONALITIES, real- ly," said Hardy: "On the floor, it's every man for himself - no Mr. Nice Guy. Off the floor, I'm just Alan Hardy." On the floor, few players can match Hardy's natural talent. Off the floor, he's just Mr. Nice Guy. Well-liked by his team- mates, Hardy has a quick wit and a level head. y When he's not playing basketball, Har- dy enjoys spending time with his family, and is active in his church. Hardy neith- er smokes nor drinks, and considers him- self an "oddball" in that respect. "You don't find too many people like that, really, especially basketball play- ers," he said, "but I wasn't brought up to be that way. I try to leave that stuff alone. I think I can do without it. "At home, I try to stay active around the church," said Hardy. "It's called 'Holi- ness' Church. I mingle with other -young people around the church and we have a ball. And when I'm not doing that I'm playing basketball. "I OWE A LOT to my brothers. I have three brothers - well, four, really, since I get along with my brother-in-law so well," said Hardy. "When I was growing up I really didn't have that much to do around the house, and they were always going over to the Y to play ball, so I'd go along. "My family really gets a kick out of me playing. .They're always eager to come up, asking for tickets," Hardy add- ed. A sophomore out of Detroit Northwest- ern, Hardy was a unanimous All State selection in high school and made one major All America team. As a junior, he was Most Improved Player in the Detroit Public School League, and as a senior he was Most Valuable. "Ii high school, the work wasn't too hard," said Hardy, ''the competition came in sports. You had to wait for your turn to come arr,"n1, that's for sure. North- wistera was nice. It didn't have the pret- tiest girls, but it was nice." To hear Hardy tell it, he came to Michigan in a rather roundabout man- ner. Recruited by former assistant coach Richard "Bird" Carter, Michigan showed initial interest in Hardy, but then seen- ed to back off. "MICHIGAN HADN'T recruited me for awhile," said Hardy, "so I looked at MSU and some of the other Big Ten schools." Michigan State was hot on the trail of both Hardy and Greg Kelser from Henry Ford High School (now starting at State). Convinced that Michigan had lost interest, Hardy was on the verge of signing with the Spartans. Then, although it was certainly unin- tentional, Bobby*Knight did the Wolverines a favor. A phone call from an Indiana recruiter was enough incentive for Hardy to turn down the MSU offer. Michigan came back and finished the job in short order. "I was glad to see Michigan come back," Hardy admitted. "Signing with Michigan came down to the last minute, really. It was sort of spur of the mo- ment." /he---s a h f u f yr '/ . i \\ } 0-/ Daily Photo by ANDY FREEBERG ALAN HARDY is happy about the dunk rule, not so happy about not starting, but hopes to see plenty of playing time just the same. Hardy was a crowd favorite at Crisler last Saturday with three slam dunks and ten points in the season opener. oceda -A) 0I U +q'40t0-6/)e. to~T1j t' " s . ' r\., 'l ? , - . , - 5 Y y t - ..

Linebacker Calvin O'Neal was tabbed with second team hon- or. and Rick Leach, Walt Downing, Mark Donahue and Bill Dufek made honorable men- tion. Top ranked Pittsburgh claimed two members on the first team, Heismann trophy winner Tony Dorsett and middle guard Al Romano. The Wolverine's opponent in the Rose Bowl, USC, has running back Ricky Bell and defensive back Dennis Thurman. Lytle gained over 100 yards in eight games playing both fullback and tailback and ended up with a 6.9 yard average. Michigan Coach Bo Schembech- ler calls Lytle the best running back he has ever had. Wingback Smith scored six touchdowns and averaged 27.6 yards per catch this year. The successful reverse he ran a,_ainst Ohio State illustrates his added dimension as a run- Bing threat. Dorsett ended the regular season with an NCAA single- season record of 1,948 yards. His 6,082 career yards was an- other mark, along with his 356 career points. Bell settled for 1,417 yards this year compared to his 1,875 from last year. His greatest feat this season came ragainst Washington State whenhe ran for 347 yards, three short of the all time re- cord. SMITH, MICHIGAN. Tackles - Wil- son, Georgia; Vaughan, Oklahoma.

The Garden has called anews conference for Monday to make "an important" boxing announcement, a spokesman said yesterday. The Bobick-Nbrton fight was signed for the Garden in Feb- ruary, and it was learned that Bobick also has signed to fight Ali. However, a signed contract does not necessarily mean a fight will take place. ALI SAID as recently as Wednesday that he would not fight again, but most close observers believe he will return to the ring. Should Ali not be willing to fight again early next year, the Bobick-Norton fight would go on as originally planned, at the, Garden in February.. Sources say Norton has agreed to let Bobick out of their con- tract in order to let him face Ali. In that case Norton would probably meet Ron Lyle in Las Vegas as part of a closed cir- cuit TV show. Woman sues Kingdome SEATTLE - A woman injured in a mishap during a Seattle Seahawks football game at the Kingdome has filed a $1 million claim against the city of Seattle. Susan Pennock, 28, suffered a fractured vertebra when a participant in a grandstand fight fell on her. She has been hos- pitalized since the Nov. 1 mishap and underwent surgery Mon- day. Doctors said she will be in a body cast for four months. In her claim filed with the city clerk, Mrs. Pennock charged that security precautions were inadequate and that excessive amounts of alcohol were sold to the persons involved in the fight.
