Indicative of the kind of schedule the Panther basketball team will face this season is the opening road trip. UWM takes on three opponents in five days, all on the road, starting Saturday night with last year's NCAA national runnerup, Memphis State. This beginning is indicative because the Panthers will play 16 of 26 games away from Baker Field House and the Arena. It's not the kind of slate that insures winning seasons. But this is what Panther coach Bill Klucas calls "pay­ ing our dues" in an effort to get established among the elite of college basketball. UWM will have a chance at one of those elites in the basketball-crazy town of Memphis. The man responsible for much of the Tigers' success is coach Gene Bartow, starting his third year in Memphis. And to say that Bartow has been suc­ cessful is to understate the Center Bill Kosick (right) prepares to pass Saturday's season opener at Memphis State. case.
