The Hawkeyes' half-court trap defense forced Michigan into 17 tur- novers, nine after halftime, and helped the Wolverines chomp their own four-point lead down to a five- point deficit midway through the second half. "THEY WOULD get you in the cor- ner and they would come so quick," said Michigan guard Garde Thom- pson, who tried without great success to scratch his way out of several cor- ner traps. "Their whole defense would switch to that side. "It was hard to get the ball opposite, and it cost us a lot of turnovers." But Michigan, being a generally patient beast, used superior muscle to punch the release on the Iowa trap, pulling out to a five point lead with 1:27 left before settling for the final margin. "Their physicalness just wore us down," said the Hawks' head hunter, George Raveling. "We couldn't get into our trapping areas. We just didn't have the thrust we needed at the end." BY THEN the Wolverines had found the weaker of those areas. Three of Michigan's last six hoops were dunks, and two of the others came on clean rebounds of errant jump shots. "They do a good job of .trapping," said Michigan head coach Bill Frieder, "but sometimes it's effective and other times it might lead you to getting an easy second or third shot because they overplayed so much." FORWARD Richard Rellford took the most advantage of Iowa's fatigue, scoring nine of his 15 points during the late Wolverine surge. "He got some of that from their overplay," said Frieder. "We were keeping both guards on one side, and he was free on the other." Rellford was free, for example, when Michigan was down 49-44 and the Hawkeyes were converging on Gary Grant high on the right side. The sophomore guard saw Robert Henderson cutting left to right across the free throw line and zipped a pass at Henderson. The pass went through Henderson's hands, but because the defense had shifted to the right side, Rellford was free to pick up the loose ball and glide down the left baseline for the dunk that started the Wolverines' comeback. AFTER HIS tip dunk put Michigan ahead for good, 52-51, with three minutes left, Rellford went to work on the other end. The 6-6 senior stole one Iowa pass, and on the next Hawkeye possession, he pounded into the stands an Al Lorenzen shot that would have cut the Wolverine lead to three. Lorenzen had beaten Michigan cen- ter Roy Tarpley, who was playing with four fouls, to take the shot. "I'm usually the one reaching and Roy's the one man blocking the shot," said Rellford. "So I looked at him and I said, 'Hey, ne always gets blocks so let me try and block a couple.' "I JUST tried to cheat over a little and fortunately I got the block." Tarpley, meanwhile, was leading the effort that gave the Wolverines a 45-27 rebounding edge. He grabbed 16 boards to equal his career high, and scored 18 points to lead all scorers.

The three used fierce elbow grease and just plain elbows to remove the polish from Marble's early season success. The 6-7 Flint native finished with two-of-nine shooting from the floor and only seven points, less than half his Big Ten average. "He took a beating out there," said Raveling. "I'm not saying anything derogatory about Michigan, but it's a fact. They really bumped and knocked him around." MARBLE was not the only player struggling offensively. Michigan's guards shot a combined 32 percent, as Antoine Joubert worsted Marble's shooting with a two-of-ten performan- ce.

Ypsi. man t........... ::::.::::: ---- stabbed koutside of *" Dooley's I By DOV COHEN A 21-year-old Ypsilanti man was stabbed in the alleyway between Dooley's and Burger King on Maynard St. at 1:30 a.m. Friday, Ann Arbor Police said. The victim, thought by police to be a current or former football player for Eastern Michigan University, was admitted to University hospital with a "graze wound" in his abdomen. He was in stable condition Saturday, said Ann Arbor Police Lt. Gary Kistka. THE SUSPECT, a 20-year-old man, was apprehended in The Nectarine Ballroom on Liberty St. within a half- hour of the incident. He was arrested but not charged. The police do not know if they will press charges and have been unable to establish a motive for the incident, Kistka said. The police were initially called to the scene for a shooting. Greater costs frce Charlie s to charge cover By AMY D. GOLDSTEIN Skyrocketing insurance rates have caused one local bar to impose a cover charge. Good Time Charlie's Village Bar and Grill began charging one dollar to their over-21 patrons, and two dollars to their under-21 customers last week. "Our costs went up about 1,000 pecent last year," said Rick Buhr, co- owner and general manager of Charlie's. Due to the rising rates, Charlie's presently pays $36,000 per year for liquor liability insurance, and Buhr expects this number to double in the coming year. THE "DRAM-Shop" law, covering Michigan civil liquor liability, has been on the books since 1937. "What caused the current controversy over it is because the insurance companies have raised their rates so rapidly," said Ken Wasniac of the Michigan Liquor Control Commission. "The amount of settlements have gone up, and (the insurance companies) have been losing money on the premiums." However, Brian Kuehn, account manager for Dobson-McOmber, an insurance company in Ann Arbor, said rates are rising so rapidly as result of the increasing number of lawsuits in which bar owners have been held liable. The problem is more complex than insurance costs. Availability of liquor liability insurance is limited, and those companies that do offer such in- surance are sometimes not finan- cially stable. "Those companies that are less stable are usually more liberal with their limit (of coverage) than the more stable companies," said Kuehn. Many of thecompanies that have offered liquor liability in- surance in the past have gone bankrupt. "WE'RE ALMOST to the point where bar owners are either paying the bare minimum or dropping their insurance. The attitude is 'come and get me.' Eventually, if they keep pushing (the rates) up, very few will buy it, or they will pass it on to their customers," said Kuehn. Some bars are forced to buy the in- surance at any price. "National chains cannot afford to take a chance with an uninsured claim. When you hit a certain size, you have to buy in- surance at any price. Smaller operations can take a chance. They can pull in their assets, so there's nothing to collect, and just declare bankruptcy," said Kuehn. Many bars in Michigan, as much as 50 percent, have dropped their in- surance. "If insurance costs more than profits, the only way to get profits is to drop the insurance," Kuehn said. Rather than close or drop insurance several bars have opted to pass the costs on to their customers: THIS is what Charlie's has done. Because it is a college bar, insurance rates are high, and limits on the coverage are low. However, the owners do not feel they can afford to drop their insurance. "We're collec- table," said Buhr, "We have the See RISING, Page 3 Marxists overthrow. S. Yemen president ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates (UPI) - Hard-line Marxists sup- ported by the Soviet-equipped armed forces overthrew President Ali Nasser Mohammed of South Yemen yesterday after a week of bloody rebellion, official Radio Aden repor- ted. An Israeli radio monitor said Mohammed flew to Addis Ababa. Ethiopia, Saturday night, apparently seeking political asylum, and a Yemeni jet carrying an unidentified "senior personality" left Addis Ababa Sunday for Taizz, North Yemen. BUT ADDIS Ababa radio later said that Mohammed left for "home" after a "brief stopover" in Ethiopia to brief Ethiopian leader Nangistu Haile Naviam on the situation in South Yemen. The radio dispatch, monitored in London, did not specify where "home" was. The Egyptian newspaper Al Ahram reported in today's early editions that Mohammed flew from Ethiopia to Moscow with five aides. The Soviet Union is South Yemen's closest ally. There was no confirmation of the reports, which came as an inter- national flotilla of ships, including Queen Elizabeth's private yacht, tried to evacuate about 1,000 foreigners still stranded in Aden, the capital of the only Marxist nation in the Arab world. A spokesman for the British Em- bassy in Washington said the royal yacht Britannia, the first of the ships to reach Aden, evacuated at least one American, a woman identified only as Hazel Denton.
