Ernie McCoy, iieaci or the Mich- igan Basketball Company of trav- eling players, adapted this cliche~ to his uses and staged a great show at Yost Field House yester- day, with the purpose of using the system ,to win basketball games. * * ,* HE HAD "reasonable facsimi- les" of the Minnesota squad mo- tivating all over the Field House court during the regular after- noon rehearsal. Utilizing the talent available from the numerous divisions of the basketball department, pro- ducer McCoy cast the men who looked, acted, and played the most like the men on the Goph- er squad and had them stand in for their "doubles" at Minne- sota. This in itself is not particularly unusual, but the fact that McCoy had the impersonators "wrapped" in jerseys with the numbers of the Minnesota players on them shows how much he wants the Michigan players to get familiar with their Gopher opponents. j DAVE STRACK, freshmen bas- ketball coach and wearing num- ber 41, was given the leading role -that of portraying the Goph- ers' sophomore sensation, "Whit- ey" Skoog. A member of the freshman cage squad, Dick Williams, a six - foot - eight transfer from Vanderbilt, was garbed in a jer- sey with number 23 on it, which -needless to say-4s the one Jim McIntyre will wear here come Saturday's battle. Chuck Murray, Bob Olson, and Bill Doyle were used to imperson- ate Hal Olson, Bud Grant, and Gerry Mitchell, the other starters on the Minnesota team. * * * SOHL ISN'T the only Olympic swimmer experiencing difficulties this season . . . . neither George Hoogerhyde or Howie Patterson has been enjoying any degree of success at MSC . . . .

The former Lafayette mentor discussed his Badger plans briefly, "I doubt whether I have anoth- er Johnny Lujack to do my quar- terbacking," the one-time Mich- igan star end quipped.

Michigan can defeat Minnesota is If amount and thoroughness on the hardwoods Saturday night, of preparation is any criteria, and not in the practice sessions the Wolverines should breeze during the week." TALKING SHOP with Bud Weidenthal Associate Sports Editor This is the second in a series of articles concerning changes leveled at the University of Miehig.in Athletic Department. WITH THE passage of each day the verbal battle with Michigan State intensifies. And the strange part about the whole situation is that all accusations and charges seem to eminate from one source, the MSC athletic office. It's strictly a one-sided affair, with the Spar- tans doing all the hollering and Michigan doing little or nothing to defend itself. The Wolverines have good reason to believe that silence is the best policy. The University of Michigan, along with its athletic department, has for over a century been regarded as one of the finest of its kind In the country. It has been famed for its purity and high standards. WOLVERINE ATHLETES have always been of the highest caliber, of students as well as in intercollegiate competition. For years, Michigan, with its vast stadium has been host to MSC, aiding the Spartans not only in national recognition (when other big time schools would not schedule them) but with a large cash income, which went a long way in subsidizing their athletic program. State students were always admitted free to these contests . that practice only being discontinued at MSC's request. Then in a matter of a few years, the Spartans, aided by liberal athletic scholarships (which they have now discontinued), skyrocketed to national prominence as one of the country's better aggregations .. but apparently they got too big for their breeches. EVELING ALL sorts of charges of "harsh dealings" "mercenary" attitude, "ultimatum," etc., the Spartan athletic office opened a full-ledged propaganda campaign against the very school that had carried themn under their wing. In an attempt to enhance their own reputation they have aroused quite the opposite response. They have very ptossibly set their reputation back to the time when they were nothing but a small agricultural college-(and that's not so long ago). They have certainly overstepped the bounds of good taste in athletic diplomacy. As new members of the Big Ten they have to be extremely careful of each move . . . they're under careful scrutiny by all the Conference. Any slip can prove to be of serious consequence.. TIlE PROBLEM of aid to athletes has also arisen as a basis for conflict. The Jenison scholarships which were recently discontinued by MSC, as a condition of their admission to the Western Conference, were extremely liberal and passed out to athletes quite freely with little resec t to high academic requirements.
