McDaniels’ debut is 88-65 loss for WKU

By United Press International Jim McDaniels’ debut in Madison Square Garden diir.'t go exactly the way Western Kentu 'ky hoped it would. The heralded 7-foot sophomore may have suffered a bit from "Garden jitters” as he made only one of nine shots in the first half and fouled out midway in the second half as Western Kentucky was routed by Toledo 88-65. It was the first loss of the season for Western Kentucky after five straight victories. The Hilltoppers are ranked 14th in the nation. Toledo is now 3-1. McDaniels was one of the nation’s most sought after high school prospects when he came out of Scottville, Ky. and decided to enter Western Kentucky. In the second game of a Madison Square Gar ien doubleheader, Bob Miller and Steve Mix of Toledo stole the show. Miller and Mix combined for 53 points with Miller gaining 16 of his 28 points in the first half and Mix scoring 16 of his 25 points in the second half. McDaniels tried to make it a game as he pumped in the first 14 points for the Hilltoppers in the second half. But he then fouled out and Toledo was in charge the rest of the way.

The remainder of Wheaton’s first six includes sophomore Kerry Pfund, son of coach Lee Pfund, 6-4 center Bruce Christman, 5-11 Jim Austin, and 6-0 Steve Larson. Pfund is a 6-3 forward. Wabash, which played Hanover without the services of big Reggie Llewellyn, is looking for its first victory. The 6-4, 190 pound Llewellyn sprained his ankle, leaving the already smallish Cavemen even more shorthanded against the bigger Panthers. In the Friday night match against Bucknell, Wabash is expected to go with 6-2 Dan Jordan, 6-3 Lee Fouts, guards Dave Moore (6-2) and Pete Volz, plus center Army Peck who is 6-7.

DPU whips Millikin wrestlers After capturing two firsts and one third place finish in the Little State Meet at Indiana Central last weekend. the DePauw wrestlers kept on the winning trail by defeating Millikin, 2613, Wednesday night on the losers’ mats. Saturday afternoon, Tom Croxton (130 lb.) and Paul Mitchell (145 lb.) took firsts and Chick Curtis (123 lb) captured a third in the Little State Meet. Head Coach Lee Schoenfeld feels that this year’s squad is in good shape and appears to be strong for so early in the season.

Millikin results: Wt. Div. 123— Curtis (DPU), by default 130—Croxton (DPU), 9-2 137- -Stafne (DPU), forfeit 145—Mitchell (DPU), forfeit 152—Dudiak (Millikin), pin 160-Surak (Millikin), default 167--Boucher (DPU), forfeit 177—Pearson (DPU), 12-0 HWT— Chamberlin (Millikin), 7-4.
