Next to that on the wall is a framed photograph of the modern 70-piece university band, resplendents in maize and blue uniforms. These are the two extremes, so to speak, of the story of the band so far as it can be traced, and 'they are separated by a period of 70 years. The original organization, whose music was derived from flutes and stringed instruments, wap in truth more of an orchestra than a band, but' it is the first university group of which there is any knowledge.

Coach Mather's men played like champions tonight, outplaying and out- witting the Illini at every turn.

Daugherity, t4he high scorn ing ace of the Conference, was held scoreless during the first half. Ii the second period, however, the Il- linois captain tried long range scor- ing and was successful in four of his attempts. Illinois had the decided advantage on the number of shots attempted, but the majority of the tosses were made when the men- were off balance or covered. Statistics show that Illinois took 69 shots at the basket while Michigan attempted only 38. Oosterbaan was more talked of to- night than Red Grange was in 1925. The tall Wolverine was superb on the defense and a mighty power on the of- fense, particularly in his work be- neath the basket. Harrigan was the high scorer of the contest and the outstanding man in floor tactics. Har- rigan caused Illinois no little trouble with his brilliant dribbling. Take Lead FroW Start Michigan jumped into the lead at the start of the game, Oosterbaan lead- ing the way with three goals scored off the backboard at the end of the first of the firsthalf, the Wolverines commanded a 16-9 lead. After two minutes of play in the second period, Michigan had increas- ed its lead to 20 to 9. With Daugher- ity scoring on long tosses, and Olson, dimunitive forward, sneaking in short shots, Illinois gradually gained on the leaders, coming within three points of accomplishing its aim. With the score 27-24, Harrigan took the game out of the fire by scoring a goal and a free throw.tDorn dropped in a short shot for the final score. Summaries: MICHIGAN (30) G Fielding H.
