Despite a driving rainstorm,
the Michigan football team fin-
ished its eleventh practice of;
the spring season yesterday in
Michigan Stadium. However,
there was one noticeable absen-1
tee - head coach Bo Schem-1
bechler.
Schembechler has been hos-.
pitalized since Tuesday, when
he left practice complaining of1
a temperature and some dis-
comfort in his chest. He will
remain in St. Joseph Mercy
Hospital for at least three or
four more days.
"He is having more tests
and is under observation,"
said defensive co-ordinator
Gary Moeller, who is direct-I

OUTSHINE ACC:

By The Associated Press
In college basketball circles,
the Atlantic Coast Conference
may have an edge in publicity,
but the Big Ten has the players
-look it up.
For the first time in the his-
tory of the National Collegiate
Athletic Association (NCAA),
two teams from the same con-
ference met for the national
title when Indiana completed an
undefeated season with an 86-68
victory over Big Ten rival Mich-
igan earlier this week.
"THE FACT that two Big Ten
teams were in the finals shows
the tremendous strength of the
league," said Iowa Coach Lute
Olson.

season said there were five,
teams in the Atlantic Coast Con-
ference that could beat In-'
diana," said Dutcher. "I about
threw up. There weren't any
that could have beat Indiana
and probably none would have
been able to take Michigan."
Big Ten teams posted a 65-24
record in nonconference games!
in the 1975-76 season.
Dutcher's Gophers, who split'
with Michigan and played In-
diana two tight games, were al
g o o d representative of the,
league's strength.
MINNESOTA finished 16-10j
over-all, but were unbeaten in
eight nonconference games and'
inflicted the only regular sea-
son defeat on Marquette.

9,800 fans watched Big Ten
games compared to 9,311 in the
ACC, which was second in con-
"The ACC spends a lot of
time and money on promotion
saying what a great league
they've got," said Illinois Coach
Lou Henson. "The Big Ten isn't

as promotion-minded, but I
think it's a much tougher league
than the ACC top to bottom."
The Big Ten has also turned
out more first-round draft picksj
and more players for the Na-
tional Basketball Association'

MOST BIG TEN coaches feel
the league will continue to reap'
benefits from the Indiana-Mich-
igan title game.
"Any kid who has pride would,
have to take a look at the Big
Ten where the best college bas-
ketball in the country is being
played right now," said Bill'
Cofield, who was just named as,
Wisconsin's new coach. "It's
one thing to dominate a con-
ference like UCLA has done in
the Pac 8, but when two teams
from one conference beat every-
body in the country to get to the
finals, it's got to be a very posi-
tive thing."

White Roots of Peace
The Iroquois people have always considered on aggreslive
"pursuit of peace" to be their mission. In September, 1969,
a group of young Mohawks set out to renew their com-
mitment to these traditions. Since they followed the ii-
structions of the White Roots of Peace. they took thvt
as a name to symbolize their group's task. Since then, {
the original qroup has been joined by peoples of other
Indian nations as they criss-crossed the North American
continent to meet in hundreds of reservations, colleges, pri-
sons. and with other interested groups.
For traditionalist Indians-those who still keep to their
original values-their message is one of hope and en-
couragement. Their work is to establish revitalized Indian
strength and unity in this land and life.
For tens of thousands of non-Indians, the White Roots of Peace have provided an
interpretation of current events, traditional views of peace and harmony with the
Creation. and brotherhood for all peoples.

BIG TEN coaches feel the
ACC has done a masterful job
with its publicity, while football
receives the attention in the
midlands.
SINCE 1970, 61 Big Ten play-
ers have been drafted by the
NBA, compared to 59 from the
Pac 8, 44 from the Western.
Athletic Conference, 38 from the
Southeastern Conference and 38
from the ACC.
The Big Ten and Pac 8 have
each had 13 first-round picks
during that period, far and away
ahead of any other conferences.
