The Chargers defense riddled and left its mark in Bowen Field House as they claimed victory number nine of the season. With a 9-6 record the Chargers opened a three game home stand starting Tuesday night against Spring Arbor College. Saturday Wayne State University moves into Stock Field House for an afternoon contest and the following Tuesday the best of the MIAA will visit in the form oi Olivet. Eastern Michigan has gone to a slowed down defensive ball control game since last recruiting scandal that left them with the skeleton of a basketball program and it proved to be their downfall against the Chargers Saturday as Hillsdale tied on its tightest defense for the occasion. ball control allowed EMU only one basket in the first seven minutes and thirty seconds of the ball game and by half time had a commanding lead The Charger offensive attack again found balance in its three big men as Mike Washington, Tom Adams and John Vari- Schoick all scored in double figures.

Junior guard Steve Erickson held Gary Tyson, who is averaging 29.3 ppg. to a grand total of 10 points. Hillsdale had a 15 point bulge with 6:51 remaining for the widest spread of the game, but the Hurons put on their only scoring splurge of the game and scored 13 straight points closing the gap to 49-47 with two minutes to play. Erickson and VanSchoick went to the line and got some pressure points to put the game out of reach. Hillsdale hit 45 per cent from the floor and cold spell and forced shots fell to 39 per cent at the home floor.

The climax of the show will be the presentation of the Jim Thorpe Memorial Trophy to the most valuable player in the NFL, Larry Brown, by Murray Olderman of NEA.

Brown was a natural for his honors for his part in bringing Redskins to Super Bowl VII. Despite the fact he missed the last two games of the regular season, he gained 1.216 yards rushing and was a vital pass receiver. The 202-pound ner from Kansas State stands at the pinnacle after lour years of pro ball. Biletnikoff might be a surprise choice to some in the AFC because i closest rival, O. J.

Simpson of the Buffalo Bills, led the NFL in rushing. The sure-handed wide receiver of the Oakland Raiders led the NFL himself, in pass catching, with 58 during the regular campaign, although every team gave him double coverage. He has been a consistently outstanding receiver since he joined the Raiders from Florida State. Hanburger, a nine-year man from North Carolina, was not a highly prized pro prospect because they look for iinebackers who weigh 195 pounds. But when George Allen took over the Redskins last year, Hanburger was already entrenched as one of the fine weakside linebackers in the game.

He brings great mobility to his job. And he has filled out to 218 pounds. The rise of the Pittsburgh Steelers was coincident with the drafting of Joe Greene, an All-America tackle at North Texas State four years ago. Mean Joe Greene they called him, and still do. and his ferocious pass rush sparks the highly respected Steeler defense.

The Minnesota North Stars picked up only about six hours sleep but came out hustling and defeated the Detroit Red Wings 53 in a nationally televised National Hockey League game. Minnesota coach Jack Gordon said the trip from Minneapolis, where the North Stars tied the Chicago Black Hawks, Saturday night, was tiring.

Red Wing coach John Wilson said he took his players to Ann Arbor, about 30 miles west of Detroit, get some away from their families after a Saturday night home victory over Buffalo, The North Stars took a quick 2-0 lead on two easy goals by Bill Goldsworthy and Dean Prentice against starting Red Wing goalie Andy Brown. time you get help, Gordon said works both ways. "The other night in Philadelphia, we were down 4-0 after the first period. The very first shot Charlie Burns gets at the puck, he hit his teammate and it ricocheted into his own Gordon noted.

Roy Edwards replaced Brown in the Detroit nets after the second goal as Mickey Redmond scored his 31st goal to cut the Detroit deficit to one point, but Dennis Hextall regained the two- goal margin with his 17th goal of the season at 11:53 of the first period. Marcel Dionne notched his 21st goal in the period to bring Detroit within one goal again and Nick libett finally tied the score with a power play at 9:28 of the second period. Purdue And Indiana Big 10 Co-Leaders, By Surprise By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Hoosiers will get a chance this week to prove how serious they are about the Big Ten basketball championship. Dealing defending champion Minnesota an 83-71 setback, the Hoosiers Saturday climbed into a first place tie with the equally surprising Purdue Boilermakers who dumped Michigan 63-62 at Ann Arbor. The Hoosiers hit the road this week for two important contests.

They play at Michigan State Monday night and then invade Michigan next Saturday. Purdue will have an easier task. The Boilermakers are home for a pair. They take on Wisconsin Monday night and Ohio State next Saturday. Meanwhile, Ohio State and Wisconsin finally crashed into the Big Ten victory column.

Ohio State, with Coach Fred Taylor hospitalized because of chest pains, downed Iowa 75-72 as Allan Hornyak scored 26 points and sank four free throws in the final 40 seconds. Wisconsin, led by Leon 29 points, spanked Michigan State 93-80 in the only other conference game scheduled. Northwestern and Illinois were idle. Indiana scored 12 straight points midway in the second half and sank the final eight of the game to hand Minnesota its second loss in three conference outings. Minnesota closed within four points at 75-71 before the Hoosiers went on their final spree to wrap it up.

Frazier Goes Out For 5th KINGSTON, Jamaica (AP) Joe Frazier makes the fifth defense of his world heavyweight ring title tonight against young, bull-strong George Foreman with the shadow of Muhammad Ali still haunting him from the wings. It is a definite crisis in the three-year reign of the savage, swarming champion, who was born on a South Carolina plantation, reared in a Philadelphia ghetto and prepared for his profession by work as a butcher in a slaughterhouse. Should Frazier lose, the heavyweight division could be thrown into temporary turmoil and all the wind would be knocked out of the awaited Frazier-Ali rematch, which has promoters dreaming of a $20 million or $30 million extravaganza.

Las Vegas oddsmakers have made the 29-year-old champion a favorite over the 24-year-old challenger, who, like Frazier, is a former Olympic gold medalist and is unbeaten in his pro career. Still, nobody knows for sure. Foreman is an enigma. As a pro, he has never been floored and ringsiders wonder if he has the fiber to come off the deck and keep fighting.

(AP) Bruce Crampton has taken two in a row, but the Australian veteran harbors no illusions about winning three consecutive events on the tough American pro golf tour. I think Crampton said with an almost sad smile when asked if he planned to make this Bing Crosby National Pro-Am his third, successive triumph.
