University at Church 668-8411 By JON MORELAND A Daily Sports Analysis It's been a wild race through the first five weeks of the Big Ten basketball season, and with four weeks still to play, the frantic pace isn't letting up a bit. The overall balance of the league, along with the advantage that has allowed the home team to win 60 per- cent of the conference games so far, has resulted in a log-jam at the top of the conference standings. A QUICK GLANCE reveals a three- way tie at the top with Michigan, Iowa, and Indiana at 7-3, three teams a game back (Ohio State, Purdue, and Illinois), and Minnesota right on their tail at 5-5. These seven teams will spend the next four weeks knocking heads with each other and the league's three "weak sisters:" Michigan State, Wisconsin, and Northwestern. Nothing's automatic against these teams either. THE SPARTANS and Badgers have combined for only five conference wins, but their victims include Purdue, Illinois and Ohio State. Considering the fact that Michigan State plays five of its last eight games in the friendly confines of Jenison Field House, the Spartans figure to play a key UPI 1.

Arizona St. 17-2 .................359 6. Utah 20-1 .......................338 7. Wake Forest 18-2 ...............294 8. Tennessee 16-4..................209 role in the race. The East Lansing squad is especially rough on a certain team about 75 miles o the southeast, and it entertains that ballclub Saturday night. Along the way, the Spartans play host to Purdue and Wisconsin, as well as the arch-rivals from Ann Arbor, before closing out the season with the two other current tri-leaders - Iowa and Indiana. EACH OF these top three teams, meanwhile, plays half of its remaining schedule on the road. If any one of these teams can come up with a couple of road wins, it would find itself with a pretty good shot at the title. With this in mind, Indiana has an edge in the race. The Hoosiers play only two of the top seven teams (Iowa and Purdue), along with Wisconsin and Michigan State, on the road. In addition to the Spartans, Michigan and Iowa each must play three contenders on the road. However, Indiana's advantage over Iowa is negated by the February 19 game between the two in Iowa City. Michigan also has to make the trip to Iowa on February 26. On the way home, the Wolverines pay a visit to Indian's campus where they'll play a game on February 28. 9. N.

Wichita St. 17-2 ..................33 20. Idaho 19-3..................25 IN ORDER TO entertain any title hopes, Michigan will have to win at least one of these two games. While a Wolverine sweep seems highly unlikely, anthing less than a split of that weekend sojourn would be disasterous to the Michigan title dreams. Of the three teams a game behind, Ohio State appears to have the easiest schedule the rest of the way. Although they play Michigan and Indiana on the road, the Buckeyes also visit Wisconsin and Northwestern. A split in these four games, combined with a sweep of the four home games against contenders would leave the Bucks with a 12-6 record and in pretty good shape. Seven out of eight Buckeye wins would guarantee at least a share of the con-1 ference crown. Illinois has the advantage of playing only two of the three leaders, Michigan and Indiana; Illinois does not have to face Iowa again this season. In that respect, the Illini control their own+ destiny, but they have to play Wiscon- Big Ten sin, Ohio State, Minnesota and Purdue away from Assembly Hall. Illinois, like just about everyone else, will have t find a way to win at least a pair of thou road games. Since it got beaten at home by Wiscon- sin, Purdue has been facing an uphill battle. To make matters worse, the Boilermakers have to play five of their last eight games on the road. It looks like Purdue will go into the last weekend needing a sweep at Ohio State and Michigan to have a shot at the Number One spot. Minnesota also had some trouble W home, losing to Michigan, Ohio State, and Indiana. The Gophers could get right back into the thick of things, however, when they host Iowa and Pur- due this weekend. All the Gophers have to do is to sweep those games and split a pair at Ohio State and Indiana the following weekend to bring themselveA within striking distance. Anything short of three wins in these next four games and the Gophers will have little choice but to join the Spartans, Badgers, an Wildcats in the role of spoiler. 4'ml Staninigs M--e Conference All Games W i .

Michigan's men captured four solor first places and one tie for first out of the six events, but the Buckeyes' depth proved too strong for the Wolverines. Kevin McKee in the floor exercise and vaulting (tied with Ohio State's Steve Carraher), John Rieckhoff in the pom- mel horse, Darrell Yee in the rings, and Marshall Garfield in the parallel bars all captured top honors for Michigan. Although Garfield took first in the parallel bars, the Buckeyes dominated the event, taking the following three places. "We gave them a battle," said Michigan coach Newt Loken. "But the parallel bars are always a menace." In the vault, Michigan achieved a team season-high total of 46.4 points,. tieing for first and taking second and third. In addition to McKee's first in the event, Milan Stanovich and G'arfield took second and third, respectively. In the women's competition, Michigan captured only one first place out of the four events, with freshman 'Kathy Beckwith's fine performance in the floor exercise." The Wolverine women dominated three of four positions in the all around statistics, with Beckwith tallying only a .25 deficit to the Buckeyes' Donna Silber, ranked tenth in the nation. Angela Deaver was third and team cap- tain Teresa Bertoncin fourth for the Wolverines. honored Michigar's Mike McGee, who is only 10 points away from passing Cazzi* Russell as Michigan's all time leading scorer, was named the UPI's Big Ten Player of the Week. McGee earned the award for his per- formances in wins over Wisconsin and Michigan State, scoring 49 points while shooting 20 of 34 from the field and nine of 16 from the free throw line. '1' vs MSU, Part 2 By MARK MIHANOVIC Michigan Wolverine linebacker Pau Girgash and reserve defensive linema Bob Dana were involved in a skirmish with several Michigan State students Friday night at a South Quad party, ac- cording to Walter Stevens, the Univer sity's Director of the Department of Safety. Both incurred minor contusions to the face from the tussle, which oc- curred in Hunt House on the fourth floor, Noarrests were made. "Some young lady in the dorm wa having a get-together, and therewer some MSU students there, according to the report P have," Stevens said. "I don't know if they were football players or not. Girgash and Dana and maybe a couple of others went to the party. ",There was something about whether they were going to pay part of the cost for the refreshments. I guess they were drinking beer. There was some pushing and shoving there, and Girgash and Dana left with bloody noses or something like that. From that point some other Michigan people came over and were ready to mix it up, but cooler heads prevailed." South Quad security called the Ann Arbor Police Department to prevent the situation from exploding, but as it turned out, reinforcements were not needed. "By'the time we got there, the com- motion was over, and nobody wished to make a complaint," Sergeant Richar Cygan said. "Nobody wished to come forward and even admit that they had been involved." Cindy Cook was the resident advisor on duty Friday night when the incident occurred. "I have no comment on this," Cook said, "but I plan to talk to the Building Director about it."
