to achieve what he claims is one
of his biggest goals: the desire to
become the first European to pole

The Wolverine senior left most
of the competition far below in
his winning height, including Don
Bragg-the world record holder.
' Bragg Fails
Bragg failed at 14'4", but was
hampered because he had just ar-
rived on a plane from Paris.
Michigan Captain Mamon Gib-
son jumped 14'3" to tie for third
place.
The other Michigan placer in
individual events was Dick Cephas,
who tied for second with Lt. Rob-
ert Gardner, U.S. Marines, at 6'6".
The jump matched Cephas' all-
time best and was just short of
Floyd Smith of the Chicago Track
Club, who had a 6'7%4'.
Wins Heat
Michigan won its heat of the
mile relay with a 3:22.7 clocking
but Morgan State stole the' show
with a Games' record of 3:18.0 in
a later heat.
Bryan Gibson, Don Chalf ant,
Marsh Dickerson and Tony Seth
comprised the Wolverine quartet.
Western Michigan was second and
Wisconsin third in this heat.
The Wolverines' two-mile four-

a good distance behind dueling

Pennsylvanians won the event

in the final, was first and Otis
Drayton, Villanova freshman, was
runner-up. It marked the first time
Robinson did not win the dash in
the present indoor season.
Pete Stanger failed to qualify in
the 50-yd. high hurdles, finishing'
fourth in a heat led by Lee Cal-
houn, who won the final.
Ergas Leps, a Michigan fresh-
man competing unattached, was
fifth and one place out of the
awards in the 1,000-yd. run.
Irishman Ron Delany, the meet's
big drawing card, won his 33rd
straight mile with a disappointing
4:06.6 and Hungarian Lazslo Ta-
bori won the two-mile with a
sparkling 8:47.8 in other key vic-
tories.

By BUZ STEINBERG
Frank Legacki swam the 100-
yd. butterfly in :53.2 to set a new
national AAU record to highlight
a Michigan intersquad meet as the
Wolverines prepared for next
week's NCAA championships at
Cornell.
Legacki, whose name will now
be filed in the record books, bet-
tered the old mark of :54.3. Two
others, Tony Tashnick and Dave
Gillanders, also came under the
wire in the pseudo-record time of
:54.2.
The oddity of this feat is the
fact that Legacki has not actually
been competing in the butterfly
event. He has won main recogni-
tion as a freestyler and has now
put another title under his cap.

GUS STAGER

backstroke (2:05.3, thus beating
his pool record of 2:08.3), and
Bucy, stole the show.
Sophomores took only two firsts,
one in the 200-yd. butterfly by
Dave Gillanders (2:07.2) and the
other by Legacki in the 100-yd.
freestyle with an excellent time
of :49,3.
The sophomores, who won the
last intersquad meet in January,
were nosed out his time by the
juniors. The latter ended up with
a total of 26% points compared
to the sophomores' 23, the fresh-
men's 20, and the seniors' 17/2.
Anticipating the big weekend at
Cornell (in Ithaca, N.Y.) this
Thursday, Friday, and Saturday,
coach Gus Stager exclaimed,
"That heart-warming crowd last
night sure made this a wonderful
send-off."

PREPARING FOR THE 'BIG ONE'-Michigan swimmers (left to
right) John Smith, Tony Tashnick and Frank Legacki turned
what was supposed to be a warm-up meet into a record-fest.
Legacki bettered the American butterfly record by 1.1 seconds.
Tashnick, a NCAA record-holder in the butterfly, also was clocked
lower than the American standard. Smith established pool and
varsity marks in the backstroke.

Michigan Board Opposes
Round Robin Schedule

I

" i

Michigan will "vigorously" op-
pose the Big Ten plans for the 10-
game, round robin system and
"invoke every available means" to
prevent its eventual inauguration,
the Board of Control of Intercol-
legiate Athletics declared yester-
day.
In its annual report to the Re-
gents, the Athletic Board called
the 10-game season "too long"
and the round robin system "pro-
vincial," preventing Michigan
alumni from seeing; the team 'in
other parts of the country.

The Board said the compulsory
round robin schedule, forcing the
Big Ten schools to play only each
other, changes the Conference
from an association of educational
institutions into a professional
type "playing league" whose pri-
mary objective is to schedule ath-
letic contests.
Might Break Conference
The system, said the Board, was
probably the major cause for the
forthcoming dissolution of the
Pacific Coast Conference and pre-
cipit'ated the breakup of the West-
ern Intercollegiate Hockey League.
Michigan's participation in a
new league, the proposed Western
Collegiate League, is still under
consideration, the report stated.
Discussing the two-year-old Big
Ten Financial Aid plan, the Board
~reported that 169 students have
accepted tenders of financial as-
sistance at Michigan, and that 70
were in the upper quarter of their
high school class. Five of the re-
cipiants dropped out during the
year and the average amount
awarded to the others was $1,025.20
during 1957-58. Total cost was
$72,939.30.
One-third Without Aid
The Board added that one-third
of the varsity athletes come to
Michigan without any financial
tenders.
Net profit for 1957-58 was $362,-
452, compared to $506,697 for the
previous year. Football receipts
during 1957-58 totaled $841,980.32.

Smith Sets Varsity Mark
In addition to this, John Smith
broke the Varsity Pool record in
the 200-yd. backstroke. He went
2:05.3, thus bettering =his previous
time of 2:08.3. Freshman Fred
Wolf (2:06.7) and sophomore Alex
Gaxiola (2:07.2) also went under
the previous record time.un
One must also take notice of the
other fine performances turned in
last night. Wolf, one of the out-
standing freshmen, took first in
the 200-yd. individual medley re-
lay.
Bill Darnton, Jim Kerr, Chuck
Babcock, and Terry Slonaker all
contributed to the freshmen's to-
tal.
Hanley Wins Freestyle
Dick Hanley took the 220-yd.
freestyle in the respectable time
of 2:03.9 and Pete Fries tied junior
Tom Bucy in the 440-yd. free-
style to lead the seniors.
The juniors, headed by Carl
Woolley in the 50-yd. freestyle
(:22.6), Smith in the 200-kd.

An Acclident
TT1 SHORT SPACE of a month the Board in Control of Inter-
ollegiate Athletics has come up with two of the finest and best
lified student members in its history. At the present moment the
.idr member and the newly elected sophomore are outstanding men
al aspects.
Terry Miller -- captain-elect of the basketball team - the junior
mber who will have another year to serve, is an outstanding student,
engineering and one of the best team leaders in any sport. Sopho-
re John Tidwell, elected earlier this week for a two-year term, is
o a student of top caliber and potentially one of the finest basket-
L.players in the Conference. Both men being highly conscientious,
;h on the athletic front and in the classroom, there is no reason to
ieve that the same will not be true withrespect to their work on the
ard.
There seems little reason to think that Miller and Tidwell aren't-
best qualified, and the best possible representatives that the
dent body could have at the present time.
nusual Ctrcumstances.. .
UT I WOULD LIKE to suggest thatsit is simply an accident such
capable members have been chosen.,
Miller was appointed by the Board itself, to replace a representa-
chosen by the student body who became academically ineligible.
was not chosen by the regular, method. There can be no criticism
the Board's selection in this case, as they have done a better job
.n the student body usually does. However, it must be remembered
,t the representative selected in the usual manner wasn't even able
complete his term-during which he seldom attended meetings.
Tidwell, on the other hand, was elected by the regular method.
mingly a very fine vote by the student body-but let's examine
Wctly why he was chosen. Basketball season was just over, and he
s one of the top players on the team-in fact, he was the second
t sophomore cager in the Conference. Certainly he is the best-
>wn sophomore athlete at Michigan. He completely swamped Tom
son,.the other contestant, who happened to play on an unsuccessful
tball team and sustained a mid-season injury that sharply cut his
ss notices.
Suppose the circumstances had been reversed, and the very capable
didate had been the lesser-known one. He wouldn't have won. The
dent body made a good choice simply because the good choice was
more popular and the better known. It was an accident.
roblems Still Exist ...
F COURSE, there are still some who will say that the new members
are not the best. Last fall's members were criticized because they
'e both football players, and the fact that Tidwell and Miller are
h basketball players will again draw comment. Certainly not all

town Louisville, 94-79 last night
in the opening semifinal of the
NCAA basketball championships.
He tore apart Louisville's de-
fense in the first half, then came
back with another outstanding
playmaking and rebounding exhi-
bition in the second half when
Louisville, down 23 points with
nine minutes to play, whittled the
Mountaineer lead down to 12.
California 64, Cincinnati'58
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (P) - Cali-
fornia upset Cincinnati 64-58 on
the clutch play of Al Buch and
Darrall Imhoff last night to gain
the finals of the NCAA basketball
championships.
With the great Oscar Robert-
son shackled in the, second half,
the Californians pulled even with
Cincinnati's Bearcats with 11 min-
utes to play, engaged them in a
shot-for-shot duel until three-
and-one-half minutes remained
and then rushed away for the vic-
tory.
Buch, a 6-2 senior from Brook-
lyn, N.Y., scored 10 of California's
last 19 points and Imhoff, a 6-10
towhead supposed to be better on
defense, added six-including a
turn-around jump shot with two
minutes to play that poked Cal
into the lead to stay.
