By RICH LERNER
The Detroit Pistons sported a
new look as they opened their
pre-season training camp yes-
terday at Crisler Arena. The
most glaring difference be-:
tween this season's camp andy
past ones is the absence of .
all-time Piston leading scorerw
Dave Bing.
However, Coach Ray Scott
has additional changes in mind
including the emphasis of a
running game for the new ' ::"
campaign. Scott and his charg-
es face the upcoming season
optimistically.
"We got more talent on thisr
team than any since I've
been here," center Bob La-
nier asserted.
"We really think we have the{
talent to win," Scott concurred.
"We made some positive ac-
quisitions. We don't have the Aci lr
holdout trouble we had last Archie Clark
year, and we're going to run
a lot," he emphasized. sire to turn the Pistons into

Scott's willingness and de- ple .find synonomous with the

Pistons - David Bing.
Porter feels there is some
added pressure upon him to pro-
duce, because of his being
traded for Bing.
"The man's been a legend
here in the city," said Porter.
"No matter who replaces him
there's going to be pressure."
While Porter will replace
Bing in the line-up, his style
of play differs from Bing's.
"I love penetrating, passing
the ball out,"tPorter said.
"I'm not here to score a lot
of points, I'm here to win."
Newly acquired from Seattle,
Archie Clark also figures into
Scott's plans at guard. The
thirty-four year old veteran of
nine NBA seasons has been one
of the top guards in the circuit
throughout his career.
"He can do so many things,"
Scott enthused, "score, assist,
play defense." And Coach
Scott's eyes light up when, he
points out that Clerk's teams
have made the playoffs every
year of his pro career.
Other top contenders for
guard spots are veterans Chris
Ford, John Mengelt, Eric Mon-
ey, and Bill Ligon, and rookie
Walter Luckett.
Lanier still holds down the
fort at center, though Scott
feels that the off-season acquist-
tion of Earl Williams from
Phoenix will give "Buffalo

"Earl (Williams) will be a

Howard Porter reported, at for-
ward along with two rookies,
Lindsay Hairston of Michigan
State, and Terry Thomas of
the University of Detroit.
The Pistons will practice at
Crisler twice 'a day, at 10 a.m.f.
and 5 p.m. until October 2.
Their first exhibition game is
October 3 against the Knicks inv

Tight end leaves
football team
MICHIGAN tight end Pete Traber announced yesterday
that he has quit the Wolverine football team. Traber, a
junior, is a biochemistry major in the Engineering School.
He plans to pursue a medical career after graduation. >
Traber made his decision after a long period of con-
templation. "There is no simple reason for my leaving the
team", said Traber.
"There was no animosity toward the coaches or the
program. There were a lot of factors-school was a pri-
mary one. There is no clearcut reason, but a variety of
decisions."
Traber felt that if he remained with the team he
would have seen plenty of action.
"I alternated at tight end in the first game," said
Traber, "And I would have been playing the rest of
the season."
Traber was red shirted last year and had three years%
of eligibility left.
Starting at tight end this week for the Wolverines will
be senior George Przygodski. Coming off a hamstring pullv
freshman Gene Johnson should also see some action, along
with freshman Mark Schmerge.

Playing under somewhat ad-
verse - conditions, Michigan's
field hockey team dropped their
opening game of the 1975 sea-
son yesterday afternoon, 3 to 1,
at the hands of Eastern Michi-
gan University.
With a cold, driving rain pelt-
ing the players throughout the
entire afternoon, M i c h i g a n
quickly fell behind by two goals
in the first half of the game,
and could never catch up to 'a
fired-up Eastern squad.
With less than ten minutes
gone in the first period, East-
ern's Sharron Perkins took a

perfect centering pass and
slapped the ball past a sprawl-
ing Shellee Almquist. Perkins
was left wide open and had the
whole left side of the net to her-
self in giving Eastern a quick 1,
to 0 lead.j
SEVEN minutes later, East-
ern leftwinger Vicki Frazier
managed to tuck the ball in the
left side of the net amidst a
wild scramble, giving Eastern
a 2 to 0 lead at the end of the
first half.
Up to this point, Michigan had
not mounted much of an offen-
sive threat. Part of the blame

Trouble brewing in NFL
National Football League players overwhelmingly rejected
the owners' latest contract offer yesterday, although the Cincin-
nati Bengals bucked the trend and voted to approve it.{
Voting against the contract Thursday were 13 teams - half
the league. They were the New England Patriots, San Francisco
19ers, Washington Redskins, Oakland Raiders, Kansas City
Chiefs, New Orleans Saints, Chicago Bears, Miami Dolphins,,
-leveland Browns, Philadelphia Eagles, Detroit Lions, GreenI
Bay Packers and Atlanta Falcons.

can be placed on the fact that
the Maize and Blue clubbers had
no place to adequately prepare
for yesterday's contest. Up, un-
til Tuesday, the clubbers weren't
sure exactly where they would
play. Little time was available
to put together an attack and
work together as a team.
"Considering that we haven't
been playing together long,"
Michigan CoachtPhyllis Ocker
commented, "I feel we didn't
play that bad."
Just before the first half end-
ed, the Wolverines put pressure
on the Eastern goalie, forcing
her to come up with some nifty
saves to maintain her shutout.
Eastern came out running in
the second half and began to put
the pressure on the Michigan de-
fense. Five minutes into the
second half, Sue Eszos found a'
loose ball in front of the net and
slid it past substitute freshman
goalie Robbin Gelston to give
Eastern a 3 to 0 lead.
FROM THEN on the Michigan
defense stiffened, and the of-1
fense fired up. Five minutes lat-
er, senior forward Deb Lewis
took the ball and pushed it past
the Eastern goalie to put Michi-
gan on the scoreboard. The
Wolverines came close twice
more in the second half but
some key defense by the East-
ern fullbacks prevented any
more Michigan tallies.
The JV contest was called aft-
er 20 minutes because of rain!
with both teams deadlocked at,
0-0.
THIS WEEKEND, Michigan
will participate in a field hockey
camp at Sauk Valley in Brook-
lyn, Michigan, enabling the
clubbers to get used to eachl
other before their October 4 en-
counter with Albion at the lat-
ter's field.

A nasty rainy day rumor and
Eastern Michigan University
combined couldn't defeat the
women's tennis team yesterday,
as Michigan handily won its
opening match of the season,
9-0. '
Forced to play indoors due to
inclement weather, Carmen
Brummet's team faced "ie pos-
sibility of having to yield its
home court in the track and
tennis building to accommodate
a football practice.
However, when it became
apparent that the football
players were going to brave
it in the rain, the girls set to
work demolishing their oppon-
nents.
Barbara Selden, playing num-
ber one singles, totally out-
classed EMU's Angie Sweet
with a 6-0, 6-0 victory. "I didn't
belong on the court with her,"
acknowledged EMU's top play-
er. "I only got about ten voints
during the whole match."
Jan Karzen at second singles
blanked her opponent Moddy
Schultz 6-0, 6-0, in a baseline
contest marked by long rallies.
"It's hard to hit a winner on
this floor," noted Karzen.
Many of the women ' were{
playing on the indoor tartan
surface for the first time, and
found that it slowed the game
considerably.
But the girls played it tongh
as no one lost more than five'
games in any match.

Michigan plays its next match
at home Sept. 29, against West-
ern Michigan University. Wea-
ther permitting, the site will be
outdoors at the Varsity Courts
where the team will not have to+
contend with varsity practices,
going on simultaneously.
"It's slightly annoying to have
the track team running around
you in circles while you're try-
ing to concentrate on your
game," said Melinda Fertig. -,
The team conquered the trib-
ulations of the day and Eastern'
Michigan University in fine fash-
ion though. -
It was the Wolverines' firstI
match andtthey seemed ready
for anything. "I'd take on Gor-
die Bell with my tennis racket'
if it came down to that," stated,
one player who wished to re-
main anonymous.

A Domino's pizza, that is. The ward's out that Domino's
not only makes the best pizza in town, but
that they deliver it fast, usually within 30 minutes.
And there's no charge for delivery. These are
the big reasons why Domino's is rapidly becoming the most
popular pizza home in town. So, next Saturday,
after a hard day of "girl passing" in the stands settle down
to a pizza from Domino's. You owe it to yourself.
