Friday, February 6, 1976 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Seven GOVERNOR'S CUP AT STAKE! Trr op By PAUL CAMPBELL Here's a trivia question for all Michigan hockey fans -- What is the significance of a trophy called the Governor's Cup? Well, we all know the answer to that. The Governor's Cup is the famous trophy originated by former state chief executive George Romney to be given an- nually to the team scoring the most goals in the two game ser- ies during Michigan Tech's BlueI Key Winter Carnival. The cup used to represent college hockey supremacy in the state. Tech would host Michigan and Michigan State in alternate years, so all three would get a chance at the award. anked Tech osts icers John Rockwell provides more than adequate backup in the nets.

Wisconsin at Colorado College i i Tankers Canada bound The Michigan's men swimming team travels to Canada for two meets this weekend. Tonight the tankers visit Western Ontario, and tomorrow the Wolverines take on Toronto. These two meets represent a break for the swimmers. The trip is basically for fun, but the meets will give the tankers a chance to keep in shape. A special grant from the Canadian government pays for the Michigan team's travel expenses. Assistant coach Pat Bauer commented, "The trip is mainly for fun. The meets will give some of the guys a chance to swim odd events." By the odd events, Bauer meant events that the swimmers do not normally swim. "We will also be putting some of our strong guys in their events, so the Canadians get to see how we swim them," Bauer concluded. -RICK MADDOCK Tumblers hit road Both the men's and women's gymnastics teams hit the road this weekend for dual meets as the men travel to Iowa City, Iowa to face the Hawkeyes and the women travel to Kalamazoo to face Western Michigan in a scrimmage meet.. Iowa, Big Ten champions in 1974, have not shown excep- tional form yet this year. Last weekend, the Hawkeye tum- blers only managed 194 points in a dual contest against Illinois. Nevertheless, Michigan coach Newt Loken remains wary, labeling Iowa as a "formidable foe" on the Hawkeye's home surroundings. Top performers for Iowa include Bob Semienowski on the pommel horse, Mark Reefkind in the all-around and George Way- kerland on the high bar. -MICHAEL WILSON M skiers second The Michigan men and women's ski teams raced to second place last weekend in the Detroit News Race at Alpine Valey. The Wolverines scored 72 points in the men's division, one point behind Notre Dame, as John Dehlin placed first in the slalom event. Michigan State won the women's division with 54 points,! ten points ahead of Michigan. This weekend Michigan will be racing in the Ohio Invitational to be held at Crystal Mountain near Traverse City. is simply a matter of survival. The Wolverines league record of 13-9 leaves them three full games behind the Huskies. Michigan still has to face pow- erful foes Minnesota and Mich- igan State. Tech, on the other hand, faces four second divi-, sion teams in their remaining series. "We know how important this series is," said Wolverine coachj Dan Farrell, who himself both played and coached at the Daily Photo by PAULINE LUBENS MICHIGAN'S Dave DeBol moves the puck in a :tion against Minnesota-Duluth last January 9th. The sophomore center scored one goal and ma le two assist in the Wolverines 8-6 victory. The Blue icers head for Houghton this weekend for a crucial two-game series against Michigan Tech. CONSISTENT 167-POUNDER lIV iswender masters mat By RICK BONINO Question: Coach Johannesen, how do you spell dependable? Answer: N-E-I-S-W-E-N-D-E-Rj The above represents a fic- titious exchange, but the senti- ment rings true. Following a freshman year on the bench and a sophomore starting role cut short by a shoulder injury, Ed Neiswender has come on to solidify the 167-pound slot onI Johannesen's Michigan wrest-' ling squad. So far, Neiswender has been a paragon of consistency. His 12 wins in 16 dual meet matches include two three-win days and one two-victory afternoon. You can also depend on Ed making do with a minimum of scoring. His lone superior deci- sion, on his return after miss- ing the season's opening triple dual, came against outclassed Michigan State freshman Mike Ley. Since then, the lanky (6-3),l deceptively strong junior has notched six or fewer points in ten of his eleven other wins. "I JUST never was a pin- ner," Neiswender admitted. "Out of 65 or 70 matches, I've only pinned two people." 3 "Ed never really looks im- pressive, but he does the job,"a Johannesen added. "He just goes out there and wins." Neiswender comes across just as plain and direct off the mat.

Neiswender is now tied for fourth on the Michigan wrestling team, having scored 39 points. Young, Koch win first US medals By The Associated Press INNSBRUCK - Bill Koch, a 20-year-old cross country skier in his first Olympics, and Sheila Young; a 25-year-old multi-tal- ented speed skater from De- troit, gave the United States its first medals - both silver - and the Americans placed three ski- ers in the top 15 of the downhill yesterday in the 12th Winter Olympic Games. AUSTRIAN ACE Franz Klam- mer captured the downhill as expected, but Andy Hill of As- pen, Colo., with a sixth place finish, led a creditable U.S. showing in the showcase event of the Alpine program. There were three gold medals awarded Thursday and Russians won two of them-Sergei Save-, liev in the 30 kilometer cross-: country skiing and Galina Step- anskaya in the 1500-meter speed; skating event. In the ice dancing, the favored' Soviet pair of Ludmila Pakho- I O0tnpic4 76 mova and Aleksandr Gorshkov retained a commanding lead af- ter the second day of competi-' tion. Their dazzling display inj the second round of compulso- ries earned them one perfect 6.0 mark for presentation and a' total of 13 marks of 5.9 for composition and presentation. Their score for the day was, 9.0 ordinals and 103.72 points.I ANOTHER Soviet pair, Irinat Moiseeva and Andrey Minenkov,; was second with 21.0 ordinals and 100.08 points and the sur- prisingly strong American pair of Miss O'Connor and Millns collected 26.0 ordinals and 59.84 points. The medals will be decidedl after the final freestyle eventi on Monday. Later Thursday night, Russian skaters Irina Rodnina and Alek- sandr Zaitsev, seized a com- manding lead in the pair's fig-' ure skating. The competition in- volved compulsory moves and! is the first of two events that lead to a medal, which will be determined after freestyle skat-. ing Saturday night.
