TownhalIRd 946-6625 ELLSWORTH Traverse City's girls basketball team closed out its season on a losing note here Tuesday, absorbing its fourth defeat in a row, when Ellsworth outscored the Trojans, 18-7, in the final quarter to take a 38-38 comeback win, Four of the 18 points in the final period came on 12 free throws by the Lancers', while the Trojans were taking only two the line. The loss gave Traverse City 7-11 record for the season. "It was another case of not.being able to play with the lead," said Trojan Coach Vicki Bush of her team, that led 14-5 after one period and 22-12 at halftime, "It's the same thing that's, happened to us the: last couple of games." Ellsworth took one more point of the Trojan lead in the third quarter, and trailed 29-20 going into the final stanza, then, led by Sue Elzinga's 10 points in the period; the Lancers were able to overtake Traverse City for the win, Elzinga finished with 19 points to lead all scorers and also led Ellsworth in rebounding, while guards Barb Clous and Diana Allen led the Trojans in scoring with 12 apiece, while Julie Pulcipher and Judy Sheffer handled the board work.

"We didn't get much scoring from our front line," said Bush "They, jlist didn't through and that hurt. It also, hurts to lose your last four games -three by three points or less and the other in overtime. We only had two returners playing from last year's team' and I think those kind of losses show how much our inexperience hurt." Traverse City's junior varsity also finished with a 7-11 record, as it took, a 29-19 win over Ellsworth' the preliminary. next competition will be Thursday, when the Trojans play Grandville In the Class A district tour: nament in Muskegon. or hern ichigan moves up MISSION, Kans.

"The bowl people played it with me," Canham said. "There were no deals. I talked to representatives from six bowls for six weeks and they were completely straight with me." The athletic director and his football coach, Bo Schembechler confirmed Michigan would be play in the Orange Bowl if it lost to Ohio State in their eighth straight game to decide the Big Ten's Rose Bowl representative. "I talked to Ed Weaver (AD at Ohio State) last Friday," Canham said, "and we were in touch again Saturday. We both agreed we would go to the Orange Bowl if an invitation was extended.

"Both Woody (Hayes, the Buckeyes) and Bo said the same thing." he said, want to play in the best open We felt the Orange Bowl, with either Nebraska or Oklahoma, was the best bowl open." Schembechler went to the team last week and asked them the same question and they also agreed they wanted to go to the Orange BowLif they lost to Ohio State. But their primary the coach'reiterated, was still the Rose Bowl. "The important thing now is the Big Ten title," he said. Michigan must defeat Ohio State to get. to Pasadena on New Year's Day.

A tie or Ohio State victory would send the DON CANHAM Buckeyes west for the fourth year in a row. The Big Ten abolished its system of having the various conference athletic directors vote on the "most represen- tative''' team and replaced it with a written formula. Best conference record is the first criteria, then best overall record, and if a deadlock still exists the last team to go is eliminated from Rose Bowl consideration. Big Red's future: Feast or family? FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (UPI) the Cooper City High School footbalLteam's mascot who was intended as piece de resistance' of the postseason barbecue, may instead become the progenitor of.a pig dynasty.

Coach Tom Sargent said Big Red is a she, not a he, and the team may breed the sow to start a long.line of mascots. Cooper City's defensive line, which calls itself the "Root Hogs," bought Big Red for $25 at the start of the season. At that time Big Red was a winsome 60 pounds. Since then she has grown to a hefty 100. When Big Red was purchased, the team decided the hog would be the main Dick Weber to visit here TRAVERSE CITY Nationally- known professional bowling star Dick Weber will be appearing at Timber Lanes Saturday for instruction and for competition against local bowlers.

Weber will give open instruction from 1 to 5 p.m. and will also be working with the area's Junior Bowlers at that time. He will then return at 7:30 p.m. for a four-game match against local bowlers Don Erving, Paul Rodemsky, Pat Kirchen and Delberta Laskey. Seating for about 400 spectators will be available.

the fire? course at its postseason banquet. That plan was ready to proceed after the season ended with a 6-4 mark last Thursday, but then the protests began arriving from animal lovers as far away as Ohio. Several Ohio pig raisers phoned Sargent to offer Big a lifetime of porcine ease if the team would relent. Florida State Rep. Tom McPherson, who has a farm and who became a leader in the "Save the Pig" movement launched by a local radio station, offered to underwrite the cost of a barbecue if the team would spare Big Red.

Sargent said Monday the team was considering "four or five legitimate offers" for Big Red from animal lovers, "but we are beginning to think we might as begin our own pig farm. We have a couple of offers to breed the sow. We also have some money offers. But we want to-perpetuate the line so every year there will be another Big Red." 1972 '73 CADILLAC OWNERS With the serial numbers listed below will receive FREE LUBE OIL CHANGE CHET SWANSON SALES, INC. 72J118914 72 149568 72B 245859 72J 126859 72G 159160 72B 251134 72B 145319 72B 209203 72B 271308 72J 126781 728 157818 72J 251081 73 134787 73 154495 738 197583 73B 255706 73B 136040 73 176985 73B 205926 73B 284730 73B 100353 73J 146151 73B 178916 73J 215386 73B 284839 73B.
