Following the kid stuff, things will get serious for a host of fu- ture Olympians swimming in, the annual Indiana-Michigan show- down in Matt Mann Pool at 3:30 p.m. Hopefuls from at least six dif- ferent countries will compete in this, the top meet of the swim- -ming season. Indiana has Kevin Berry, 1964 gold medal winner after he upset last year's Michigan captain Carl Roble in Tokyo. Berry, a native of Australia, was never able to beat Roble again, but will certainly be in Mexico City representing the Land from Down Under. Aussie's Choice Also representing Australia and the Hoosiers is Bob Windle, a Hoosier 'standout in the distance events. Both Berry and Windle may be the best in Australia, but they don't hold the top spot on their own college team. Sophomore Ron Jacks of British Columbia, Canada, has taken over the number one place in the but- terfly, and is guaranteed an Oly- mic position for his country. Sophomore Fred Southward is a United States Olympic hopeful and has been slightly more im- pressive than Windle. After Win- dle's number two position is Tito Perez, another sophomore. He's from Puerto Rico which has an Olympic team independent of the United States. Mexican Diver The last foreign student from his own Olympic team is Luis Nino de Rivera, a diver from Mexico. However, on his own squad, he's lost in the crowd. After gradua- ting Ken Sitzberger, America's best diver last year, the Hoosiers retain junior Win Young, second to Sitzberger a year ago, and have brought up sophomore Jim Henry. Both seem cinch Olympians for the United States. Michigan, naturally, won't ex- actly be shut out of the Olympics, Tom Arusoo will -team with Jacks on Canada's butterfly team. Diver Peter Emond also is from Can- ada. Juan Bello, Michigan's first legitimate individual medley man in years, is from Peru. This brings us down to the meet. Arusoo has to swim against Jacks today in what should be a great duel. Bello will be up against veteran Bill Utley in another really rough race. Mich- igan sophomore backstroker Bill Dorney will take on World Record holder Charlie Hickcox, 'a n d should be able to stay close to him. The last three, of course, are United States Olympic team hopefuls. Meanwhile, the rest of the Wol- verines will have their hands full. Sophomore distance man Gary Kinkead says "I searched their whole team for a weakness and couldn't find one." Coach Stager elaborated: "This is one of Indiana's greatest teams. And of course, they're always tre- mendous." After all, he's talking about the conference champions. Seven straight times. f By MARK HALPERT 6'2" senior.

Michigan will take on North- western at Evanston, Illinois, which is just a few miles from Lagrange.

Michigan took a fifth, while Northwestern finished in third place. Up, Up and Away The Wildcats are coming with fine showings at the Midlands, as well as four dual meet victories against Minnesota, Purdue, Mc- Murray College, and Wisconsin. Northwestern Coach Ken Kraft says of the 1968 Wildcats: "They are the best team I have ever had." They will get a chance to prove him right later this year as they take on Oklahoma and Oklahoma State, ranked second and third nationally. Today, though, they have to get by Michigan, and to do it, they plan on taking the lower and1 middle weights. This is where the Wolverines are shakey, as they have their youth concentrated1 there.s Northwestern will send up the following artillery: At 123, a fa- vorite at Northwestern, Wayne Watson, who at the Midlands Tourney was upset by Michigan's1 Dave Rubin in a close 3-1 de-; cision. This is definitely a revenge1 snatch and Watson is said to beI even stronger than before.1 In the 130 lb. bracket will be Ed Dumas who lost by default, an injured knee, to another Wol- verine, Lou Hudson. The knee ist healed but not the memory off the loss, and Dumas will be tough in both respects. At 145 is a bright spot in Bill t Laursen, who has already beat Wisconsin's Mike Gluck, NCAA runnerup. He is definitely not one to overlook just because the score- card says he's a sophomore. In the 160 category will be either Russ Schneider or Otto Zeman. Schnieder was 152 champ at Midlands where he beat the man who beat Michigan's Fred Stehman. Zeman lost a close one last year in the Big Ten Tourna- ment to Michigan wrestler Jim Kamman, a Big Ten and NCAA champ. One of the "near-heavies" at 177, is Wildcat Seth Norton, who did very well before being elimin- ated at Midlands. Game Plan The Northwestern game plan is to take at least three weights outright, somewhere in the middle with their "strong" men Zeman, Norton, Laursen, and Watson. Michigan will send their young, but tough squad to face this Wild- cat challange headed by Dave Porter at heavyweight, junior Pete Cornell, and senior Bill Waterman; and in. the middle weights: senior Wayne Hanson, Fred Stehman, and Jim Sanger, a sophomore; and in the three light weights: junior Geoff Henson, Lou Hudson, a sophomore, and Dave Rubin at the bottom at 123. Low for Lee Lafayette hit his low point of the season when he only managed six points against Illinois last week. Despite this performance he should enjoy a rebounding ad- vantage over Tom ianovich and o Stewart. In the past, Michigan's big men have had difficulty ad- justing to playing on the inside. The key to the game could be the ability of Stewart and Tom- janovich to score from outside. If Michigan can draw Lafayette outside it will open the door for 4 Pitts to move inside and take advantage of his fine rebounding talents, and his ability to score off the offensive boards. If Sullivan plays, this advantage will be more important because he too is a scrapper and has the ability to score from the inside. An overflow crowd of 14,000 fans is expected for the Big Ten season home opener, and if previous Michigan-Michigan State games are any indication, the game will end up going all the way down to the wire.
