lassos
VMU job
By JOHN KERR
As was expected, Western Michigan announced yesterday
that it had hired former Michigan assistant coach Jack Har-
baugh to take over the head football coaching duties for the
Broncos.
Harbaugh, 42, served as the defensive backfield coach for
the Wolverines from 1973-1979, before becoming the defen-
sive co-ordinator at Stanford, a position he held until yester-
day's announcement.
"I'M REALLY happy,;" said Harbaugh, who played college
football-for another Mid-American school, Bowling Green.
"It's like coming home for me,"
The decision to hire Harbaugh came as no surprise as he
was rumored to have been Western's top choice to fill the
coaching vacancy. And although the announcement was of-
ficially made yesterday, Harbaugh knew he had the job
earlier in the week.
"He (Western Michigan's athletic director Tom Won-
derling) called me Tuesday night and told me I was his
choice," the new head coach admitted.
HARBAUGH WILL replace another former Michigan
assistant, Elliot Uzelac. Uzelac was fired November 24 by
Wonderling after he had led Western to a 6-5 season. Uzelac
compiled a 38-39 record during seven years with the Broncos.
Harbaugh and Uzelac worked together for two years when
both were Michigan assistants. Consequently, Harbaugh said
he wasn't about to make major changes in the Western
program.
"I have the utmost respect for Elliot;" Harbaugh'said.
"We're close friends. I just hope I can match the standards
he set (at Western)."
THE ROOKIE head coach has wasted no time in getting on
the job. Harbaugh has already begun recruiting athletes to
play at Western. However, being new to the Bronco program
has presented a few problems for Harbaugh; he must first
learn how to sell the university to prospective recruits.
"The hard thing is to learn (about Western) and get the in-
formation you need (to recruit players)," Harbaugh added.
Before joining Michigan's staff in 1973, Harbaugh served
as the secondary coach at Morehead State in Kentucky in
1967, in the same capacity for Bowling Green from 1968-1970,
and also with Iowa from 1970-1971.'

Spikers i'n final81
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - The
Michigan women's volleyball
team managed to keep its
hopes of capturing the national
volleyball crown alive yesterday
by advancing in the first round of
the AIAW National Champion-
ships hosted by Florida State.
Coach Sandy Vong's unseeded
Wolverines had rough going in
their first outing of the tour-
nament, being dominated in ail
11-15, 2-15, 7-15 sweep at the hands
of ninth-ranked and top-seeded
Texas.
The double-elimination policy
of the tournament was the only
thing that saved the Michigan
spikers from a long, cold trip
home to Ann Arbor. The
Wolverines took advantage of
this reprieve and bounded back
with the determination that has
earned them Big Ten and
MAIAW Regional championships
and a 39-13 season record, grin-
ding out a 15-8, 15-10, 14-16, 17-15
victory over an eighth-seeded
Pittsburgh squad.
In later tournament play Pit-
tsburgh fell to Texas as well,
being eliminated from com-
petition completely.
Michigan and Texas, along
with six other teams, advanced
into and eight team double
elimination tournament. Matches
continue today and will last until
a champion is determined.
If the Wolverines are able to
pull a jew upsets and win the title,
it will mark the first national
championship won by a Michigan
team since the men's gymnastics
team pulled the trick in 1970.
Paumier sets new marks
By KARL WHEATLEY
Tami Paumier broke her arm prac-
ticing gymnastics one day in high
school; and it may have been one of the
best "breaks" she has ever received.
She certainly didn't enjoy the ex-
perience, but when she took to the
swimming pool to rehabilitate her arm,
it started her successful involvement in
competitive swimming.
PAUMIER'S ARM is much better
now, as demonstrated by the freshman
breaststrokers' impressive perfor-
mances this year for Michigan's.
women's swim team.
In the Wolverines' season opener this
year, the Bowling Green relays,
Paumier swam in five of Michigan's
first-place finishes as Michigan won the
meet for the second straight year.
In her second meet, Michigan's
home-opener 85-64 win over MSU,
Paumier walked away with Wolverine
varsity records in the 50-yard and 200-
yard- breaststroke events. She also
found the energy to win the 100-yard in-
dividual medley with an excellent time
of 1:00:09.
LAST WEEKEND, she saw tough in-
ternational competition at the Canada
Cup meet in Toronto. "I was disappoin-
ted," Paumier responded to her fourth-
place finishes in the 100-meter and 200-
meter breaststroke events.
Hopes are hig0h for
freshman s wimmer
Women's swim coach Stu Isaac
doesn't seem disappointed.
"She's a little bit ahead of where I
expected her to be," said Isaac. "We're-
real happy with her progress so far."
ONE OF THE reasons that
Paumier came all the way from her
home town of Columbia, Md. to
Michigan was because of the "good
combination of athletics and
academics." Her oldest sister, Kim,
was a letter-winner' on the Michigan
swim squad in 1980, while her other
sister, Terri, is a senior on the swim
squad at Ohio State, and won the Big
Ten title last year in the 50-yard
freestyle.
"I really like it here, but I was real
homesick for a while," she said of her
first term away from home. "You're so
independent, I think that's what I like. I
guess I wanted to be on my own." While
she no longer has anyone to remind her
to take her vitamins, the girl whose
teammates call "Cindy Lou Who", af-
ter the quiet, shy girl in Dr. Suess' The
Grinch Stole Christmas, sounds con-
fident that she can handle such in-
dependence.
For right now, she feels that she has
found a good balance between her 20-
hours-a-week at swim workouts, social
life, and her full-time class load in the
School of Natural Resources. She
doesn't seem quite sure, but thinksthat
architecture school is her academic
goal.
ONE THING she is sure about is that
she likes swimming.
"I'm not swimming for publicity, but
there is something about swimming
that I enjoy," said Paumier. "I enjoy
getting in there and working hard. I like
knowing that I'm in good shape."
With her gold'medal in the 1979 Pan
American Games for the 100-meter
breaststroke, and her accomplishments
since then, she is best known for
keeping in shape by way of the breast-
stroke. But she prefers swimming the
individual medley (IM). "I'm not as
good in the IM, but I like it better
because it is more of a challenge."
Isaac feels that Paumier is good
enough at meeting challenges to finish
in the top four or five in breaststroke at
the AIAW Nationals this year.
Despite all this success, predicted
and past, Paumier says, "I kind of don't
want people to know that I'm a swim-
mer. I don't like the stereotypes that go
along with being a woman swimmer."
Paumier will just have to take facing
those stereotypes as just, another
challenge. With her success in the pool,
it seems guaranteed that her identity as
a swimmer won't be a well-kept secret.

SPOR TS OF THE DAILY:
Hayes threatens reporter
Paumier
... impressive freshman
HOUSTON (AP) - A Houston broad-
caster said he was threatened last night.
by' former Ohio State football coach
Woody Hayes when he asked about the
Gator Bowl incident that led to Hayes'
dismissal.
Alvin Jackson, sports director for
radio station KMJQ, recorded the con-
versation with Hayes, who was a guest
speaker at the 12th annual Lombardi
sward banquet last night.
HAYES WAS fired shortly after he
struck Clemson noseguard Charlie
Bauman, who had intercepted a pass
that stopped an Ohio State drive in the
closing minutes of the Dec. 30, 1978,
Gator Bowl game Ohio State lost 17-15.
"Get off, get off of it," Hayes said just
before he threatened to knock Jackson
down, according to the broadcaster's
pe recording.
Jackson, a 6-foot-4, 265-pound former
Penn State defensive tackle, said he
thought at first that Hayes was just
joking.
"I THOUGHT after all these years he
would have mellowed with age, ap-
parently not," said Jackson.
Hayes was taking part in the awards
ceremonies and was not immediately
available for comment.
Awards banquet spokesman Al Busse
sa)d he thought the whole incident "was
~hut of place" and added that he "resen-
ed the whole issue being brought up" to
a banquet guest.
Nissalke axed
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - The Utah
Jazz fired Coach Tom Nissalke yester-
day and replaced him with General
Manager Frank. Layden, Jazz
President Sam Battistone said.
,The Jazz, 8-12 for the season, have
oft 10 of their last 13 games. Nissalke
was fired one day after Utah was blown
out 113-77 by Indiana and two days after
falling 128-103 to Dallas.
"This was a very recent decision
based on the things that have taken
place," Battistone said. "Frank and I
just made the decision today. There's
been a lot of criticism and we felt today
was the day we needed to make a
decision."
Templeton for Smith?
HOLLYWOOD, Fla. (AP) - The St.
Louis Cardinals and San Diego Padres,
locked in day-long negotiations for
shortstops Garry Templeton and Ozzie
Smith, announced what they called a
"partial trade" at baseball's winter
meetings yesterday.
The Cardinals will send outfielder
Sixto Lezcano and a player to be named
later - presumably Templeton - to the
Padres for pitcher Steve Mura and a
player to be named later - ostensibly
Smith.
THE SHORTSTOPS were not in-
cluded in the immediate announcement
because of technical difficulties in the
renegotiation of their contracts. Tem-
pleton is entering the third year of a six-
year, $4.4 million deal and Smith makes
a reported $300,000 a year on his con-
tract.
Earlier the shortstops were reported
to be the key men in a much larger
swap between the teams, and because
the trade was within the same league,
there was no deadline facing the clubs.
But General Managers Whitey Herzog
of the Cardinals and Jack McKeon of
the Padres decided to go ahead on the
portion of the deal to which they had
agreed.
Herzog, also the Cards' field
manager, said this will be a bigger
trade than any he made at last year's
winter meetings, when he was the
busiest general manager at the conven-
tion, swapping major players daily.
"THIS DEAL will be more important
to the Cardinals and San Diego because
of the names involved," Herzog said.
Mura and Lezcano seemed to be the
appetizers with the main dishes still
ahead.
NCAA reprimands ABC
GREENVILLE, S.C. (AP)- The
NCAA sent ABC-TV a telegram
"strongly" objecting to having the net-
work air allegations of Clemson football
recruiting violations during the Nov. 28
Penn State-Pittsburgh football game.
Tom Hansen, assistant to the
executive director of the NCAA and its
TV program director, told The Green-
ville News that the message sent Nov.
27 to ABC's Roone Arledge was over the
signature of NCAA executive director
Walter Byers.
The newspaper reported yesterday
that Hansen said he was not aware if
ABC replied before it showed the inter-
views, in which Knoxville, Tenn., foot-
ball players Terry Cofer and James
Minor said they had been given money
to sign to play with Clemson.
