The Michigan girls have fin- ished on top six out of the past seven years. Last year was the exception when they placed third behind Arizona State and West- chester State. Today Arizona State will be back to defend their crown, while Michigan's mostly sophomore EROS FESTIVAL NO. 1 UNDERGROUNDj of the Vth Forum THUR. thru SUN.-- 1:00 P.M. NEXT WEEK ANDY WARHOL'S "NUDE RESTAURANT" team will be aiming at "We're number one" again against some of the best women swimmers in the country. Captain, and senior, Lynn Alli- son has been greatly pleased by the performances turned in this year by the younger girls. Take the Michigan Invitational Meet, held two weeks ago at Wayne State, for example. For the seventh time in e i g h t years, Michigan took top honors with 102 points, well ahead of Central with 88 and Wayne with 51. And it was the freshmen and sophomores who shined. Except for Lynn Allison's re- cord-setting :26.7 in the 50-yard freestyle, Michigan's seven vic- tories in the 12 events (including both relays) were accounted for by the underclassmen. The 200-yard medlay relay of sophs Johanna Cooke and Barb Patterson, and frosh Jan Darrah and Kathy Stidwell clocked a 2:05.3 to slash the old record by more than four seconds. Miss Cooke's first of two in- dividual wins came in the 50-yard breaststroke, her :35.4 breaking the previous record by a tenth of {a second. The 100-yard backstroke went to Miss Darrah, before Miss Stid- well rewrote the record book in the 100-yard fly with a 1:07.1. The 200-yard free relay made it a Michigan day setting a new record in 1:47.1, five seconds un- der the old mark. These are the girls Michigan will take to face the likes of Central's captain, Lyn Allsup. A senior, and a member of the 1964 Olympic team, she took three individual firsts at Wayne: in the 100-yard IM, the 50-yard butter- fly, and the 100-yard freestyle, setting a record in the fly with a :28.9, two seconds faster than the 1967 record. Football isn't the only sport where Michigan may find itself the national champion. {r , N ": r, f.

Freshman coach George Pomey described the game as, "a match the freshmen are never expected to win." "The biggest problem the team will have is defense. Our weak- ness is in our lack of height. But the boys are good ball' handlers," he added. The varsity will open with an offense built around running. "We have developed two new offensive patterns this year," varsity coach Orr explained, "one with and one without a pivot. Both are major changes from last years attack." "But we hope to see the biggest improvement this year in our de- fense," Orr commented. Besides Tomjanovich, the var- sity starting five will highlight sophomore Dan Fife, Mark Hen- ry, Dennis Stewart, and Bob Sul- livan. Others contending for start- ing positions are junior college transfer Rich Carter, Rod Ford, and Rick Bloodworth. Optimism for this year's t e a m centers around the return of four veterans. Tomjanovich and Ste- wart who respectively averaged 19.5 and 17.7 points a game last year are being counted on to con- tinue the surge with which t he team finished last season. Maxey's floor leadership and Sullivan's versatile performance are also considered vital ingred- ients for this year's Big Ten con- tenders. Monday's match is the seven- teenth in the freshman-varsity series. Only once, in 1956, have the frosh been able to pull an upset.
