All made his prediction in answer to a question by a fan in the audience that had come to see him open up the final week of training for the defense of his crown against Spain's Alfredo Evangelista at the Capital Centre next Monday night. Earlier, Ali said, "George probably will fight again after a year and a half or so. When I get out of the ring, which isn't going to'be too long now, George is going to take another look at it all." Foreman, the former champion, made a formal announce- ment in Houston over the weekend that he is retiring at the age of 28 because of religious beliefs and his mother's opposition to fightiag. "The problem for George was that people had him believ- ing that whoever he hits will fall," said Ali. "Even after he knocked out Ken Norton in the second round in Caracas, Vene- zuela, he made a statement saying he didn't know what it was; but when he hits people they just go out." "George is confused," Ali added. "He's so confused that I amYt think he knows what he wants to do. I predict he'll come ha te'll miss the money, the publicity and he'll want to prove ihi he's the best." Ati and Evangetista passed their prefight physical examina- Monday and Al quickly announced, "I shall destroy."

Aggravated Aggies COLLEGE STATION, Tex. - Texas A&M University officials received the NCAA's one-year probation on its basketball program with some relief yesterday saying they were glad the investiga- tion was "resolved." "It has been a frustrating, disconcerting experience," said Texas A&M Athletic Director Emory Bellard. The NCAA imposed:a one-year probation on the school for ifr actions in its basketball program. There were no sanctions at.ched to the probation, meaning Texas A&M could still partici- pgte in any NCAA post-season playoff and appear on television. The Southwest Conference already had placed a one-year sus- icanion on the two players involved - Karl Godine and Jarvis WItliams. The school also was ordered by the NCAA to sever all relations, formal and informal, "with certain representatives of the university's athletic interests involved in the violations of NCAA legislations." The "certain ifnterests" - private citizens - may no longer aid the school's recruiting or other athletic booster efforts. The violations included improper monetary gifts to prospec- tIve athletes and the loan of an automobile to a student athlete. IsUimmanonmmmmin By RICK MADDOCK Pitching-considered by most as at least 60 per cent of the game-was the Michigan Wol- verines' bread and butter over the weekend. Michigan swept Ohio State and Indiana in dou- bleheaders - on the road, and three of those wins were shut- outs. Michigan, the Big Tencham- pions for the last two seasons, now finds itself one game be- hind Minnesota. The Gophers, 10-2, play four of their last six games at home. Meanwhile, the Wolverines, 9-3, play five of their last six at home, with their final game slated aaginst Mich- igan State at East Lansing. THE THREE shutouts, giving Michigan five for the season, lowered the staff's ERA to 2.78, overall and 2.72 in the Big Ten. The Wolverines have led the Big Ten in ERA the last two years and four of the last five. Freshman southpaw S t e v e Howe fired a one-hitter, his sec- ond of the year, defeating the Buckeyes on Saturday, 5-0. Howe gave up the hit to leadoff Buck- eye Wade Manning, in the first inning. He raised his record to 7-2 overall and 3-0 in the con- ference. Howe's ERA improved to 1.76.thanks to his third shut- out of the year. The victory was the eighth straight complete game for Howe.

Dan Cooper- rider singled in the second run. Benedict stresses the "little things" with his team. "They (Buckeyes) walk Mahan. I pinch run for him, then I tell Greg Lane to sacrifice him (McEl- downey) over. Then Chapman hit him in. The key to that was the sacrifice, but nobody hears about that," Benedict said.
