Arbor and tomorrow begins the next test: the NCAA Mideast
Regional, which it also hosts.
"IT IS A wide open tournament," said Michigan head
coach, Bud Middaugh. "It is nice to be in a situation in which
you can host such a fine tournament."
The Wolverines (37-17) will play the opener this afternoon
at Fisher Stadium against the University of New Orleans (47-
14) beginning at 1 p.m.
Middaugh has indicated that sophomore Scot Elam will
start on the mound for Michigan. The righthander has com-
piled a 10-1 record and is nationally ranked with a 1.89 ERA.
MICHIGAN IS led in hitting by Jim Paciorek (.364, eight
triples) and senior captain Gerry Hool (.361, 17 doubles, 41
RBIs). Hool earned Most Valuable Player honors in the Big
Ten Tournament last weekend, collecting 10 hits, including
three doubles and a home-run in three games.
But a cautious Middaugh says, "We're not a club of out-
standing individuals. We play a team-oriented game."

"WE ARE RELATIVELY young in playing experience,"
said head coach Ron Maestri. "Our hitting was quite a sur-
prise, as was our pitching depth."
Game two this afternoon pits Eastern Michigan (35-27)
against the University of Nevada-Las Vegas (36-20).
Eastern Michigan earned a spot in the Mideast Regional by
virtue of winning the Mid-American Conference Playoff. Jim
Irwin paced the Hurons with a .407 batting average, while 10
of his teammates hit over .300 to make them the sixth most
proficient hitting team in the nation with a combined .345
average.
Nevada-Las Vegas' Bill Max was ranked nationally in four
categories, doubles (first with 28), RBI (sixth with 88), hit-
ting 10th at .444) and homers (16th with 19).
"Our pitching is weak," said head coach Fred Dallimore.
"But our defense is tough. We're an exciting ball club." The
Rebels' defense set an NCAA record with 92 double plays.

Illinois wants Big 10
to remove sanctions

I

CHICAGO (AP)-University of
Illinois President Stanley Ikenberry
reiterated yesterday that the university
intends to seek complete removal of all
sanctions imposed by the Big Ten Con-
ference for the school's role in the con-
troversial eligibility of Dave Wilson.
In a report before the university's
Board of Trustees meeting, Ikenberry
said an extension of the date that the
sanctions were to be imposed recently
granted by the conference's faculty
Fightings Mlini
... want sanctions removed

representatives was "an act of good
faith."
He also said that internal studies of
athletic department procedures-un-
dertaken prior to the Wilson controver-
sy-may produce results that lead to a
"positive resolution of the problem ...
in a manner fully protective of the
honor and integrity of the university."
TALKING WITH reporters between
sessions of the meeting, Ikenberry said
that if conference faculty represen-
tatives were to draft again the charges
against Illinois they would "use con-
siderably different language. I don't
think they intended it to be as inflam-
matory as it turned out.
"The first draft was done by the Big
Ten's legal counsel using terms more
frequently used in a courtroom," he
said. "I believe the faculty represen-
tatives read the document line-by-line,
but I'm also certain that if they were to
re-draft the document, they would use
different terms in light of the ex-
changes we've had since this thing
began."
While indicating that the university's
chances of success in completely
removing the sanctions "remains to be
seen," Ikenberry hinted that some
compromise might be acceptable. He
did not elaborate.
