Last weekend, in temperatures near freezing, many of the intermural football championship games were played. The following is a summary of some of the games played on the snowy, icy turf. Football . * Fraternity Sigma Alpha Epsilon 8, Phi Gamma Delta 6 Fraternity class 'A' football hailed Sigma Alpha Epsilon as the season's champs after a slim victory over Phi Gamma Delta, 8-6. "We had a good team, most of our games were pretty close," said Kirk Seablom. "Lots of guys returned from last year." Sigma Alpha Epsilon's touchdown was scored by Jeff Collins with Blaine Kubiak scoring the two extra points to give the team the two point winning advantage over Phi Gamma Delta. Zeta Beta Tau 2, Alpha Delta Phi 0 The defense was the key to Zeta Beta Tau's 2-0 win over Alpha Delta Phi to claim the class 'B' championship. "We had a good team defensively, with two interceptions in this game," said Bob Neides. The two interceptions were snagged by Pete Lieberman and Larry Bronska. The only two points in the game were scored on a safety as Zeta Beta Tau's Howard Block tackled Alpha Delta Phi's quarterback in the endzone. Urad./Fac./Staff Invisible Hands 12, Blaraza 8 The Invisible Hands came through with a very visible last minute victory over Blaraza with a 12-8 score to claim the class 'A' championship. The Invisible Hands' first touchdown was scored when John Worthington caught a 35-yard pass from quarterback Mark Lozier. The key play of thc game, was an eight yard pass thrown by Lozier to Steve Szabo to score the go-ahead points with only two minutes left in the game. Boys in Business 16, Second Stage 8 "We had a pretty good team," explained Jeff Block. "We started playing better as the season went on." The Boys in Business indeed did improve as the season progressed, enought to become the class 'B' champions by defeating Second Stage, 16-8. The first touchdown came off a flea-flicker play as Mark Fooksman caught the ball at the 7-yard line and ran in to score. Co-R ec * Alberts Warriors 14, Chicago Maize 8 One of our biggest secrets," explained John Weber, "is that we have lots of mean girls to open up the big holes !" Dave O'Brien scored both of the team's touchdowns while Jim Sauber scored the two extra points after the first touchdown. The Albert's Warriors are the class 'B' champs, but as Kevin Raftery said, "We were just out to have a good time and we achieved that."

This season the Rose Bowl controversy is starting earlier. The Rose Bowl committee is unhappy with the Michigan-UCLA pairing in the Bluebonnet Bowl because the two teams come from the Big Ten and Pac-Ten, as do the two squads competing in the Rose Bowl (Iowa and Washington). "WE THINK IT takes away from our package," said Tournament of Roses football chairman Bill Nicholas. Prior to the 1975 season, the Rose Bowl was the only post-season game in which either conference par- ticipated. But in 1975, the Rose Bowl informally assented to a "gentleman's agreement." "In 1975 they (the Big Ten and Pac-Ten) came to us because they wanted to play in other bowl games," said Nicholas. "We recognized their dilemma and reluctantly said yes, as long as they didn't do it on a head-to-head basis." BECAUSE OF the Michigan-UCLA matchup, the For Mich match ag Michigan's were very f thrashed th Michigan pound Joe N " Milhouse. ichigafl period, but' "IT KIN Tournament of Roses executive committee may want the informal agreement put in writing. "We're going to sit down and discuss it with the Big Ten and Pac-Ten," said Nicholas. According to assistant director of the Bluebonnet 'In 1975 they (the Big Ten and Pac-10) came to us because they wanted to play in other bowl games. We recognized their dilemma and reluctantly said yes, as long as they didn't do it on a head-to-, head basis. ' - Tournament of Roses football chairman Bill Nicholas Bowl Les Haulbrook, the matchup was partially the result of poor communication between UCLA coach Terry Donahue and athletic director Bob Fisher. WHEN INITIALLY contacted, Donahue expressed an interest in the Bluebonnet Bowl should UCLA not earn a Rose Bowl bid. Fisher was not aware of this, and as ahresult, the Bluebonnet Bowl was led to believe that UCLA was no longer interested in playing in the Houston-based bowl. So, a week ago Monday, Bluebonnet Bowl officials got in contact with the Big Ten, which expressed an interest in the game. Later Monday, however, UCLA said it would'taccept an invitation to the Bluebonnet Bowl. At that point, the game's matchmaker Sonny Yates felt "we couldn't drop one in favor of the other." Assistant director of the Bluebonnet Bowl, Les Haulbrook, also noted that a Michigan-UCLA mat- chup was too good to pass up. "It wasn't intended' to put a Pac-Ten and Big Ten team in the Bluebonnet Bowl," he said. "That's just the way the pieces fell in- to place. Our main purpose is to put together the best matchup possible." While the Rose Bowl committee broods, Michigan head coach Bo Schembechler has begun to look for- ward to the December 31st contest, although he would undoubtedly prefer to pace the sidelines on New Years day. "I think it's a good matchup," said the Wolverine mentor. "I have no qualms about going down there." Y n c e n ..........................................:::.

Wright, who is nor- mally a 134-pounder, was outpointed 10-5 by MSU's Jeff Felice. GREG SARGIS pinned Michigan Captain Mark Pearson at 150 pounds, and Fred Worthem won a hard-fought 10-7 decision over Nemir Nadhir at 158 pounds. Scott Rechsteiner scored Michigan's next points, when he wrestled to a draw with Phil Welsh, which made the score 25- 4. MSU scored 9-1 victories in the next two weight classes, when Keith Foxx defeated Kevin Hill at 177 pounds, and Mike Potts downed Kirk Trost at 190 pounds. Michigan's only victory of the night came in the heavyweight division, where Eric Klasson won by default. Klasson was ahead 11-0 in his match against Dan Dudley, when Dudley was disqualified by the referee for stalling. "We caught them short and out of shape," said Michigan State coach Grady Peninger. "They were humiliated tonight, and I'm sure Bahr will work the living hell out of them. He's a good coach and they're going to be a good team, they just aren't quite ready yet." unnemamassaanmamm.:r.::..:::......amm 4 Farland) got tied," Michigan coach Dale Bahr said. "We're re used to jumping out to a lead, and we should have. Joe's g aS mistake was that he was too aggressive in going for the pin." Michigan State then jumped out to a 23-2 lead, by winning the next five matches. At 126 pounds, Spartan Jim Mason pinned Mike DerGarabedian with 1:03 left in the final period. Ron Cantini followed with a 5-2 decision over Michigan's Bill Goodill at the 134-pound weight class.

WASHINGTON AT FIFTH AVE./769-4210 By GREG DeGULIS Senior tailback Butch Woolfolk, the Big Ten's* leading rusher this season, was named the Wolverines' MVP for 1981 by a vote of his teammates in last night's annual football bust at Weber's Inn. Senior defensive back Tony Jackson, who coach Bo Schembechler calls "the finest free safety in the con- ference today" was named as Hustler of the Year. Champion of the Year, an award given to a player behind the scenes who significantly contributes to the program through determination and drive, was given to senior quarter- back Brad Fischer. Woolfolk, in his senior year, galloped for 1305 yards, 5.6 average and five touchdowns as the tailback shattered Rob Lytle's all-time rushing mark of 3317. Woolfolk is Michigan's all-time rusher and ranks third on the Big Ten career list. Jackson, a senior from Cleveland, remained the mainstay in a crippled secondary leading the team in intercep- tions (5). Jackson also performed punt return duties when Anthony Carter was Shurt. Donakowski cramped at NCAA Michigan cross-country was represented by lone runner Gerard Donakowski at the NCAA Champion- ships held in Wichita, Kansas this past Saturday, and the outcome was disap- pointing. Running in the top 25, Donakowski was in position to realize the goal of becoming an All-American early on in the race. The blistering early pace, though, (two minutes at the half, 4:29 at the mild), did not agree, too well with Donakowski, as an onset of cramps, and eventually a wave of nausea upset him at the three mile mark of the 6.2 mile race. DOMINATED IN the past by older, more experienced foreign athletes, this year was no exception, as the Univer- sity of Texas-El Paso's contingent of African athletes took first, second, third, fourth, and seventh, led by 27 year-old sophomore South African Matthew Motshwarateu. Donakowski's roommate and team- mate Bill O'Reilly relates the spirit Donakowski took into the race. "He went for it; he ran it like he had to for a good performance, but this time it just didn't work out," said O'Reilly. In picking the 25 All-Americans (who must be American citizens), selections were forced to be made all the way to 52nd place. . -ANDREW OAKES A Hardy Piston Former Michigan cager Alan Hardy was re-signed by the Detroit Pistons over the weekend, thus reuniting him with two former teammates. Hardy, who played at Michigan from 1976 through '79 will be joining former Michigan standout Phil Hubbard, who played for the Wolverines over the same four years. Hardy also played for two years at Detroit's Northwestern High School with current Piston Terry Tyler. HARDY, WHO was never drafted by an NBA team, survived a 1979 Piston rookie-free agent camp only to be waived during the pre-season. He was then signed again early in 1980 but was cut before the start of the California Summer Pro League. Hardy led that loop in scoring with a 33.5 ppg average and was signed by the NBA Los Angeles Lakers on August 13, 1980. -Bob Wojnowski ARMY SURPLUS We stock a full line of clothing, boots, camping equipment, hunting clothing & winter coats.
