It will be a case of a tested Winhawk five against a virtually untested Winger quint.

THE HAWKS hvt played and won two of three starts while Coach Tete Petrich's Wingers have only a 57-48 triumph over North St. Paul behind them. Coach John Kenney, as a result, has had little opportunity to learn much about tonight's opposition. "I don't know whether a two-week layoff will help or hurt them," said Kenney.

The Redmen took advantage of a big scoring outburst in the second half to down Loras 96-85.

The win was the third for St. Mary's against three losses. THE CAME was featured by just about as wild and woolly a second half as anyone has seen in a long time. It took over an hour to complete, almost everything happened. Girl spectators knocked to the floor, a spectator banished, a technical foul and several times the game was held up because of the booing and cheering that was going on.

And now for the Redmen with six non-conference games under their belts it's on to the heat of the league race. St. Mary's plays at Duluth Saturday night in its first MIAC test. Duluth is tabbed as the team to beat in the race for honors and a win for the Redmen would just about insure them a successful season in the conference. St.

Mary's, lealing by as much as 12 points at times in the first half, broke to a 47-42 margin at intermission. The contest was tied seven times during the first half before the Redmen, led by Marty Lillig, broke away to lead 45-34 with a minute to go. LILLIG, WHO finished with 17 points for the night, was unstoppable in the first half. After coming off the bench he hit on five long jump shots and a layup to give St. Mary's its halftime margin.

The Duhawks retaliated with at the quarter before Cotter, spearheaded by Gere Schultz, came back to lead 7-25 at halftime.

A heartbreaking final 25 seconds spelled defeat No. 3 of the campaign for the Cotter Ramblers here Thursday night.

Enroute he rushed for 938 yards and 68 points. Ferguson generated vo much power he set up every phase of the Buckeye attack and was called by Coach Woody Hayes "practically indestructible." "He's the best fullback I ever coached and he's got to be the best in the game today," Hayes adds. Ferguson was thrown for only three yards in losses in as many seasons. Davis, the Syracuse wonder boy who was the first player picked in the National Football League draft, led the Orange to a Liberty Bowl berth as the team's top ground gainer, pass receiver, kick hauler and scorer.

The Ramblers came back to tie it 40-40 on field goals by Lorcr-Koprowski, Welch, Speck and a free throw and a basket by Bob Judge. But the rally fell short with Hanson's shot. Nett thought his new lineup changes played well, "Judge really looked good out there. Of Course, he's green at the guard spot, but he'll come a long way before the seasons over. 'Czaplewski (Sam) hurt us by getting into foul trouble early in the first quarter after scoring four points.

I only used him briefly in the third period and he picked up fouls four and five." "SCHULTZ LOOKED the best he has all season. He didn't do much offensively in the second half but he saved us with two great defensive plays." Schultz was the only Rambler in double figures with 10 points. Rich Welch and Judge each added seven.

Gopher Cagers Face SMU in Saturday Tilt MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Southern Methodist University will roll into Minneapolis Saturday bent on revenge after its 63-60 upset loss at the hands of Nebraska Thursday. The Mustangs were undefeated In two games up until Thursday and will try to get back on the winning track against Minnesota, winner of one game in two decisions. Th Gophers lost their first game, but came back strong in their second outing against Memphis State. Southern Methodist has a veteran team and one which is supposed to be one of the toughest in the south this year. The oddsmakers are calling the game a tossup.

Probably tha most promising player on the SMU squad is a 6-8 sophomore named Mike Marsha. He averaged 20 points last season as a freshman and replaces Big Steve Strange. The Gophers hope Tom Mc-Grann can put the clamps on the big boy. McGrann, along with forwards Ray Cronk and Eric Mag-danz and guards Bob Bateman and Jim Gilbertson are expected to start for Minnesota.

Colts, Rams To Tangle Saturday By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Baltimore Colts can strengthen their chances of finishing second in the National Football League's Western Conference Saturday by beating the Rams in Los Angeles. The Rams, in turn, need a victory over the third-place Colts to aid in their effort to escape the Western cellar, which they now share with the Minnesota Vikings. Baltimore's record is 7 victories and 5 losses while the Rams have won 3 and lost 9.

The game will be televised nationally CBS, 5:30 p.m.) and is the only NFL action Saturday. All other clubs play Sunday, the headliner being the collision between the New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles in Philadelphia. The Giants and the Eagles are deadlocked for first place in the Eastern Conference with 9-3 marks, and the victor can do no worse than tie for the title.

With 13 minutes to go the Red-men started to roll. Tom Hall, sensational in the second half, fired in three consecutive driving shots to make the score "7-67. St. Mary's widened the gap to 90-76, its biggest margin, behind Lillig, Hall and Al Williams.

With the score 92-79 the game was delayed briefly during a free throw because of the fans screaming for the century mark, but the Redmen calmly hung onto the ball and walked off with the win. WILTGEN commented after the win, "We had trouble stopping them up the middle in the first half, but we remedied the situation by having our guards jam the center. After that we were on the way." Tom Ruddy, who twisted a knee in the first half in a scramble for the ball, is expected to be all right for the Duluth game. Wiltgcn thought he could have used him in the second half but didn't because of the nearness of the loop opener. Hall finished with 18 for the Red-men, Bob Jansen got 16, Mike Stallings 14 and Williams 11.

Tierney and Trytek will probably make up the first line with Bob Magnasson and Don Mellin as defensemen.

Beaulieu will head the second line at center with Berrigan at a wing along with Dick Frontier, "We'i! have to utilize all our strength." Molock indicated. Which: means Beaulieu will play some defence as will Don McCormick. Three members of last year's squad, defensemen Felix Zaczek' and Dave English, and center Sherman Pampuch, are not compet- ing this year. The Redmen also lost sophomore Joe Weivoda, who re-enroil at mid-semester but who will not be eligible this season.
