The effort by Dayton viewed bx many in this area a channel 9, was a thing of be .ty Day ton did not have a tall team us college teams go. bi did combine some superb effort by the ti ani as a xvhole with 'he outstanding jab of Don Max to the N 1 til Carolina team who xvas ranked fourth in the no’ion. This exhibition of teamxx :k and desire had to impress ev< i yone as they moved into the finuk} on Saturday night. THE SECOND GAME PlTted the great ITI. team and a team considerec; and strong enough in Elx . hives However, xvith '.hcii size and strength.

le.id, it xvas no contest. This tram, featuring the big Alcindoi, can win easily in games they don’t look good as their press and style of play can make a game appear loppy. However, when the ihips are down, they have a tremendous amount of talent to fall back on and it is all coming back next year. IN HOCKEY TRULY AN INtercsting spoil that is gaining more p rpulanty every yi*ar due to television, the Chicago Blackhawks have won their first regular season title in history. They have a real high scoring club and one that has plenty of fine personell. H iwever, as they head into the playoffs, they will be facing one of three teams in a real dog fight for position now and i ertainly any of the three could make it rough on the Hawks. Montreal. the defending cup champions, one of the thm: fighting for the second spot, xvill be ready for the cup play once again as this team is fighting L i tin second spot, will be ready foi the < up play once again as thl.team i finally starting to jell this season. They have b«‘en victim of injunes and now they hav. tin ii team pretty well ba< k togethei. they have really put on a show Toronto and New York are tlm other two teams in th* playoffs with the p. sitUm still to be decided among these three. HOCKEY IS A ROUGH sport. There is no doubt about this, but for some reason aftet a rough 7(> game season thrsi Hubs take on a new life in th< ■ l ivoffs Jus! where they can get this energy and duiability is a wonder, but more rugged action IS 111 store the next fexx- XVeeks a' the-, decide then 19G7 St mlex Cup Championship THE SITUATION AT IL^ inois is no secret to any sports tan The papers huv< been loaded with stones of the incident which started with a slush fund discovery that had been aiding athletes. The amount of trouble involved and the penalty assessed serins to be two different stories although it all boils down to a severe blow to Illinois fans and tans all over the country. Most feel the penalty is too strong, especially with the stories that are n ,w circulating about practices at < ther schools This isn’t a wcret t 1 anyone There has to be a bidding going on to get the good athletics when they are appioa* hed by many big name schoi >ls ILLINOIS MIGHT HAVE just been the team that got caught at an unfortunate time. The Big Ten hasn t be n enjoying their best seas' ns recently in out of nfercnce play It is quite a blow to the P.ig Ten to lose athlvti. . nte t< to iion-< "nferen< e te mis and this | 1; ,» been a regular thing recently. Certainly this 1 proven n thir just completed basketball season. The Big Ten didn t have an outstanding team at all even though we were more than happy to sec Indiana get the opportunity t< reprcsi nt them in the NCAA In football, take Mulligan State and Purdue <>ut of the conference last year and what was left ' With this slump for a while, stories came nut <>f th.

to be seen what action the NCAA will take if any. but once they get started, heads could roll all over the country. If the Big Ten put the kiss of death on themselves, it can't be a sentimental thing with the way the voting went. Only Ohio State sided with Illinois that they should be allowed to retain their com hrs involved Do you suppose ASoody Hayes, Duffy Daughtrey, Fritz Crisler and a few others xvould be around much lunger if all guilty were caught? IT IS A KNOWN FACT that offers that don’t particularly side in with the NCAA s restrictions are made. Do y<>U suppose Lew Alcindei went to UCLA just foi kicks’’ Bidding for talent has to exceed the opportunity offered in the classroom When a high school stai is contacted by 10. 20.50 or 10" different sch- 0)5 can t you just see the eull<”. e officials saying come to our ch'H.l. we have the finest English lab in the country. 01 just look at the education we off.•! over J.-hn Doe Univeisity. The fight for talent is great and it will cont.nue. Alumni are piobably the mggrst violators as the\- try to swing the decision of an athlete '<> their "Id alma mater. They aren't alone. Coaches spend over a year trying t<> interest b .ys in their school, not because of classes, but because they wan’ them on their athletic squals. THIS MESS ( AN T BE OVER y. t and just hoxx manx schools will get can ht in the tidal wave when it d< - ■ fl w. remains to be s,-..n lllim s perfectly fits the example of being in th< xvi'.ng place at tin light time.
