Wisconsin-Green Bay's invitation opened with St. Norbert conquering Benedictine of Kansas 66-60 and the host school stopping Parsons, Iowa, 66-65. In Stevens Point, semifinals comprised Anderson of Indiana 76-72 over Carroll College, and UW-Stevens Point 102-72 over winless Hamline of St. Paul, Minn. Green Bay (5-2) led 37-24 at intermission, but Parsons (6-3) closed to within a point in the final minute.

Benedictine (5-3) led by a point at halftime before St. Norbert charged to a fourth victory in seven games, led by Terry Dufour and Jeff Kunz with 21 points each. Stevens Point (4-4) converted 58 per cent of its efforts from the field, and had six scorers in double statistics, led Bruce Weinkauf's 22 points. by High for Hamline was Tom Cybela of Milwaukee with 14 points. Anderson and Carroll were virtually equal in field goals, but 24 Carroll fouls alowed Anderson 16 points from the free- throw line.

trophy, while the third place team and the consolation champion will each be awarded a team trophy. Thursday night's warfare was kicked off by a blazing battle that went right down to the final horn before Norrie Amateur Sports Club nailed down a 71-68 decision over Bergland Hotel and Bar. Jim Krznarich burned the laces for 35 points in leading Norrie to victory and he had fine scoring help from Bob Jurkovich and Milty Krznarich, who added 17 and 13 points, respectively. Norrie led, narrowly, at each quarter stop but the battling Bergland five, paced by John Berglund and Bill Toomey, kept coming back, dosing the gap just three points at the finish. Berglund and Toomey swished 16 markers each, while Don Abrams rimmed 12 points and Len Johnson and Larry Newhouse added 10 counters each, completing a balanced five-man attack.

Vern's Bar used an effective press to start the game but after getting over the initial shock, the talented Bear's Bulldogs swept into the lead after one quarter, 23-20. However, the host club's press proved effective in the long run as Vern's took a 42-37 halftime lead and kept right on going to a 64-53 advantage after three periods. Vern's Bar pivot Wayne Lewis led all scorers with another scintillating performance, controlling both backboards, along with his 27-point scoring. Henry Aapala fired in 22 points in support of Lewis, while Rich McKenzie added 11 markers and Jack Stuart 10. Bear's balanced attack included four double-digit scorers: Bob Franti with 14, Doug Johnson with 13, Dick Franti with 12 and Cliff Niemi with 10.

Clancy's Clothing and the fine Eagle River quintet put on a thrilling show before the tall Clancy's five from Rhinelander pulled away from a 64-all third quarter tie to take the win, 88- Hockey Tilts Set Saturday The Colonial Skateland rink here will be the scene of a hockey doubleheader this Saturday when the Gogebic Range Midgets take the ice at 10 a m. to face the Calumet Midgets, followed by a 2 p.m. battle between the Gogebic Range Bantams and Eagle River's Ban- tans. Spokesman Douglas Olsen, representing the sponsoring Range Jaycees, said that the Midgets feature players 14-17 years of age and the Bantams are comprised of boys 12-13. The public is welcome to attend free of charge.

Coaches of the Gogebic Range hockey teams are John Fitzgerald and Bob Edyvean. 81. Loss of pivot Andy Schaffer and their tiny star, Jerry Stadler, early in the final session via the personal foul route hurt the Eagles. On the other side of the ledger, the losers got brilliant 30 point scoring from George Ryclock and another great performance from Veryl Krosschell, who popped through 26 markers. Clancy's was led by player- coach Judd Isebrands and Dennis Vances, who got great support from a deep bench in wearing down the plucky Eagle River entry.

Schaffer is 6-8 and Krosschell 6-6 but the Rhinelander five matched them on the floor and still have reserves on the bench just as tall. Isebrands, the former University of Iowa player, juggled his lineup masterfully throughout. Johnson's Builders bested neighborhood rival from Bessemer, Uncle Sam's Bar, 81-59, but the game was closer in the first half than the score indicates, being tied at halftime, 31-all. It was a knockdown, drag out battle all the way, even after the hotter shooting Johnson's club pulled out to a 52-43 lead at the end of three periods. The winners' Irwin DeMerse led all scorers with 22 points, while team mates Mike Hoffner with 15 points, Bruce Phalaja with 14 and Don Begalle with 10 provided yeoman support, both in scoring and in floor play.

Cold shooting hurt the losers, who had three double-figure marksmen in Jim Partanen and Rick Syrjala with 14 points and Milo Barnabv with 13.

Syn. Fake Your Way Through Make them think you're going one way, then go the other. That's the art of stickhandling. Don't forget, you the initiative; you know what you're going to do -your opponent doesn't. No can teach you'to fake.

You can learn to pit reflexes against the defence, but will just have to develop the skills yourself. Develop all the little moves. Be able to cut as sharply left as right. Be able to stop as well on one foot as the other. Learn to fake a move to the left, but actually go right.

Don't forget other teams will have a "book" on you. If you always go right around an opponent, they'll Iknow it. If moves one way are slower than to the other, Out.

Pacers Lose Fifth Straight By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS It's tough going for the champion Indiana Pacers in the American Basketball Association these nights. Tney suffered their fifth itraight loss Thursday night as hey fell before the Carolina Cougars 120-106 and dropped hree games behind the first place Utah Stars in the ABA West. The Stars enjoyed a 128-90 romp over the New York Nets as Glen Combs and Willie Wise combined for 50 points. The Virginia Squires beat the Dalas Chaparrals 124-117 in the other ABA game scheduled. The Cougars, on top in the ABA East, were led by Billy Cunningham's 32 points as they Jvercame the Pacers for their ifth in a row.

Rich Jones and Joe Samilton each scored 21 to pace the Chaps who cut Virginia's 20-point lead to seven in he last five minutes. Milwaukee Classic Opens Tonight MILWAUKEE (AP)-While Northwestern has dramatically demonstrated the uncertainty of college basketball co-hosts VTarquette and Wisconsin are solid favorites to dispose of Rice and Yale tonight and gain Saturday night's finals of the llth annual Milwaukee Classic. Tradition weighs heavily in avor of a championship rematch of the state rivals, who have met for the title five pre- ious times. Only UCLA among Classic visitors has left with a crown, although Marshall lost Marquette by only 74-72 in ast year's finals.

Wisconsin, 3-2 and idle since defeating West Virginia 77-59 Dec. 19, will open the Classic at 7:30 p.m. against Yale, 2-7 after losing 83-62 at Ohio State Wednesday night Marquette will play at 9.30 xm. against Rice (2-2). Losers will play for consolation honors at 7-30 m.

Saturday, followed by the title game at 9:30. TO EVERYONE WALT'S STANDARD AUTOWAY U.S. 2 Ironwood STANDARD The Daugherty resignation received 333 points and 17 first- place votes in a poll of Associated Press newspaper and broadcast members. There were 37 ballots received, with 10 points going to the voter's top choice down to one point for the 10th pick. Twenty-one items received votes.

Although the resignation of Daugherty after 19 seasons at MSU created the most stir, the Detroit Tigers' drive to the American Leagu East baseball championship was a close second. The Tigers' season garnered 17 first place votes in a 324- point total, just nine digits behind Daugherty. However, U-M football didn't take much of a back seat. The Wolverines, with a 10-1 season after a 1972 Rose Bowl loss, wound up third with 277 points, including one first-place vote. Of the two remaining first- place choices, one voter picked the induction of Gordie Howe into the National Hockey League Hall of Fame as the top item.

The other considered as No. 1 the rookie performance of former Hillsdale College star Chester Marcol in helping the Green Bay Packers to a National Football League division title. The naming of Stolz to succeed Daugherty was not included on the ballot because it happened after it was sent. However, it is part of the overall story. Some ballot items could have been broken down into various sub-categories, particularly in pro sports.

But that often dilutes the voting and subsequently an item, which could finish high when all things are lumped together, might wind up out of the top 10. Of necessity, some items were divided. For instance, the Detroit Pistons 1971-72 season was separate from the coaching change afterwards from Earl Lloyd to Ray Scott. The Pistons' season finished llth in the voting with 72 points and Scott 12th with 60. Although the PGA national golf championship is one of the top three golf events in the country and was clearly the big golf story in Michigan in 1972, it finished eighth overall.

Rounding out the top 10 are Howe (4th), the Detroit Lions' season (5th), the Red Wings 1971-72 season (6th), Micki King of Pontiac winning an Olympic gold medal in diving (7th), Ed Brinkman's shortstop fielding records for the Tigers (9th), and the state high school basketball tournament (10th). Here are the top Michigan sports stories of 1972: 1. Duffy Daugherty resigns as Michigan State football coach-Denny Stolz succeeds him--333 points, 17 first-place votes. 2. Detroit Tigers become East Division champs then lose to Oakland in American League playoffs--324 points, 17 first- place votes.

3. Michigan loses to Stanford in 1972 Rose Bowl, then has 10-0 record before losing season finale at Ohio State--277 points, one first-place vote. 4. Former Detroit Red Wing great Gordie Howe inducted into NHL Hall of Fame, and his son Mark, a hockey player, becomes only state athlete to win a medal at Winter Olympics-175 points, one first-place vote. 5.

Detroit Lions finish with 85-1 record and fail to win their NFL division or make playoffs--159 points. 6. Detroit Red Wings under new coach Johnny Wilson make bid for NHL playoffs but fall short to finish fifth behind Toronto--128 points. 7. Micki King, former University of Michigan student from Pontiac, wins gold medal for diving at Summer Olympics--105 points.

8. Gary Player wins national Professional Golfers' Association championship at Birmingham--103 points. 9. Ed Brinkman of the Detroit Tigers sets several major league shortstop records--80 points. 10.

Flint Northern, River Rouge, Shelby, and Ewen-Trout Creek capture state high school basketball championships--76 points. 11. Detroit Pistons finish last in NBA Midwest Division with 26-56 record in season marked by Dave Bing's eye injury and controversial statement" by guard Howie Komives that Coach Earl Lloyd tried to "phase out" white players--72 points. 12. Ray Scott replaces Lloyd as Detroit Pistons' coach--60 points.

13. Elmer Engel resigns as football coach at Bay City Central after his team wins mythical state championship in Class A with 9-0 record to give Engel 23-year record of 165-348--33 points. 14. Bill Muncey wins Gold Cup hydroplane race on Detroit River--25 points. 15.

Bay City Central, Hillsdale, Hudson, and Indian River Inland finish as the No. 1 teams in Miclugan according to the final AP poll--23 points. 16. Port Huron defends its title by defeating Muskegon for the Turner Cup, emblematic of supremacy in the International Hockey League, which expands to nine teams with the addition of the Saginaw Gears--22 points. 17.

PAOI 10 Daffy Prfday, 39, Gridders Will Help Select New Coach OBERLIN, Ohio (AP) -When Oberlin College picks its new football coach in the next few week's, the players will have a voice in the selection--a big voice, says Jack Scott, Oberlin's controversial new athletic director.

"We're not going to give the football players a coach they don't want," Scott says. "I only wish we could give them the coach they want--let them pick." Morris Back In Home Town PITTSBURGH (AP) Eug "Mercury" Morris, speedy son of a Pittsburgh truck driver, is going home. Well, sort of going home. "Call it going back, not going home," Morris said. "My memories of Pittsburgh are mostly cold and hard, usually involving some kind of struggle." Morris, who ran for 1,000 yards during the regular National Football League season, is again braced for "some kind of struggle" in the city of steel.

He and the rest of the undefeated Miami Dolphins meet the Steelers in Sunday's American Conference championship game at Three Rivers Stadium. Mercury scooted away from Pittsburgh at age 18, heading for college in Texas before bouncing on to the Dolphins three seasons ago with the NCAA career rushing record. Until this fall, Morris played sparingly and was hampered by injuries. Finally, cast in a three-man ground attack with Larry Osonka and Jim Kiick, his luck changed. "I've got tickets for my dad, my mother and all the relatives in Pittsburgh.

After the game, we'll have some laughs, that is if we've won. But, I won't forget the tough 18 years I spent in that town." Morris and the other Dol- ahins took note when Oakland tight end Bob Moore was cracked over the head by police prior to last week's playoff game in Pittsburgh. The Raider player was sifting through a Steeler pep rally after attending a movie and the police wouldn't believe he was an Oakland player. "I remember the Pittsburgh police as being tough," Morris said with a chuckle. "They've chased me a few times, but I usually was able to run away from downtown before they caught up."

One of those ideas is to give the players a bigger share in running the team. Some of his other ideas can be seen in changes at Oberlin since he took over as man of the physical education department and athletic director last spring. One of Scott's first acts was to name Olympic gold medal winner Tommie Smith his assistant athletic director and an assistant professor in the department. Smith is the first black coach in Oberlin's history. Bringing some racial balance into the department was one of "the highest priorities I had," Scott said.

The other was expanding the athletic for women, which Scott noted has a $1,000 budget this year, compared with $67,000 for the men's program. Scott put 24-year-old Jane Mann, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin, in charge of the women's program with what she says is a "com- mittment from Jack for near equality with the men in terms of programs." Another change at Oberlin under Scott was elimination of admission fees at all college sports events, largely a symbolic move since the fees never bring in more than $2,000 a year. Scott, a 1966 graduate of Syracuse University, was director of the Institute for the Study of Sport and Society at the University of California at Berkley from 1968 until he took the position at Oberlin. The institute, which he and his wife founded, is now based at Oberlin. Scott criticizes the collegiate establishment for-a other things--commercialism, racism, authoritarianism and being more interested in winning than in the development of the students who participate in sports.

But he denies vigorously that he is antisports. "Actually, we're fighting for the right of people to be able to participate in sports," he said. "It's really a diversion to say we're discouraging participation and getting people to quit. What I personally encourage people to do is to stay in there and fight for change." Bosox To Shift AA Team to Meriden MERIDEN, Conn.

After a five-hour executive session in his office, Grossman announced that Red Sox administrators and city officials concluded plans for a three-phase program to upgrade Ceppa Field, the Sox' new minor league ball park.
