Interest is so high In the annual war that tickets fetch astronomical prices-for a game one can watch at home on television no less. . Rumors of tickets being sold for $125 apiece circulate freely. Radio station WUOM auctioned off one of its allotted press box seats for $610, with the pro- ceeds going to the non-profit station's coffers. PRESENTLY PRICES for endzone seats average about $25 in Ann Arbor but one Lakeside, Ohio native pointed out, "they're a lot cheaper here than in Columbus. "I found four for $145," he said, almost gloating. An Ohio State student confirmed the higher prices south of the border. "You don't see many tickets for sale, but those you do see are going for $75 apiece." THE SCRAMBLE FOR the valuable ducats begins months before the game. No sooner had one student finished his last exam at the end of April, when he began an all-night vigil at the doors of the Athletic Ticket Office in order to obtain the first of the $7 tickets available to the general public for his parents. Despite being first in line, the Athletic Depart- ment refunded his money last month. Why are people willing to pay outrageous amounts of money to see a game that's on television? "I don't think they're worth it," said one buyer. '"But my father needs them for his business." WHY DO OTHERS turn down veritable windfalls to see the game in person rather than selling their ticket and watching on the tube, replete with instant replay? "The last OSU game was worth a lot more in entertainment," said one student fan. "I usually don't take my binoculars to the game, but this time I'm gonna take them, and zero in on Woody (Hayes) as the clock runs out and he's on the losing end.

He's an unselfish player; he passes the ball around very well. He has extreme quick- ness-boy, just unbelievable quickness. He has all the po- tential in the world." Ricky Green chose Michigan because "I like the style-they fast-break a lot, and I like to' school-wise, and it has a nice basketball program." ,I The key to Michigan's success in the early going will he the degree to which the new players can adjust to the new situation. "We have a tough sched- ule," said Frieder. "Ours and Indiana's are the toughest non-conference schedules in the country. It's very impor- tant that we get off on the right foot." Phil Hubbard and Ricky Green, foremost among the new players, should figure heavily in Michigan's showing this sea- son.
