Matmen Plagued

TREMENDOUS PERFORMANCE-George Lee left the Kent State

With only four days left until
the Michigan wrestling team's
opening dual meet of the season
against Cornell, five key men on
the squad are bothered by in-1
juries, or are recovering from
them.
Captain Larry Murray is ham-
pered by an ailing right knee,
which had a cartilage removed
from it in September. During a
full-length match held yesterday
as part of an intrasquad "meet,"
Murray's knee, received a sharp,
painful blow.
Finishes Match
But Murray was able to finish
out the match, and it appeared
that the knee is no worse than it
was. Barring further injury, Mur-
ray, a 130-pounded, should be in
sufficient health to go on the com-
ing weekend tour to Cornell and
Rutgers.
Sophomore Jim Agnew recently
separated the ligaments from his
two bottom ribs, but he did not
seem tobe bothered too much yes-
terday.
In a nine-minute match with
soph Ambrose Wilbanks, Agnew
gave a good performance, and
right now has the inside track to
the 130-pound starting post for
this weekend's action.
Wilbanks has been beset by a
recurring chest inJury, but de-
spite it he performed well enough
yesterday to indicate that he is

not out of the running yet for a
starting slot,
Sophomore Don Corriere, who
pulled some knee ligaments out
of place last year, is. taking no
chances on having the injury re-
cur. His thigh and calf are tightly
bandaged. The fifth man is soph
Wilfrid Hildebrandt.
Three of the six matches were
ilecided by socers of 3-1, 2-1 and
1-0, indicating a lack of aggres-
iiveness.

Gym Not Ready But Team Was
Imagine Pittsburgh's surprise
eight years ago when it rolled into
Kent expecting to appear in the
I dedication game-and, found the
baskets hadn't been erected.
It didn't phase KSU officials or
the Kent team. Baskets on lengthy
standards were placed at either
end and Kent went on to a victory
over the bewildered Panthers.

'M' Gymnasts
In Midwest 0
By WAYNE MORTBERG
Michigan's gymnasts encour-
aged their faithful followers by
taking home third place in the
16-team Midwest Open held in
Chicago the past weekend.
The Wolverines trailed a strong
Illinois team and Palestrum, a
team composed of University of
Illinois alumni.
Edge MSU
Michigan edged fourth place
Michigan State by one-half point.
This accomplishment is not an
easy feat as MSU was NCAA co-
titlist along with Illinois last year.
The overall performance of the
Wolverine team indicated that

Heart Attack
Kills Speaker
WHITNEY (A- Tris Speaker,
one of the immortals of baseball,
died here yesterday, apparently
of a heart attack.
Burt Howell, a friend, said
Speaker died at his lodge at near-
by Lake Whitney.
A native of Texas, Speaker was
known to the baseball millions as
the "Old Gray Eagle." He was a
member of the baseball Hall of
Fame.
He played for the Cleveland In-
dians in the 1920s and was gener-
ally accorded a position in the
all-time major league outfield.
Speaker was a contemporary of
Ty Cobb and the late Babe Ruth
and was called by many the great-
est centerfielder in baseball.

Impressive
pen Contest
strong contender for Big Ten and
NCAA honors.
The Wolverines demonstrated
beyond a realm of doubt that they
have the best group of trampolin-
ists in the nation as they took five
of the top ten places in this event.
Co-captain Ed Cole was de-
throned by teammate Dick Kim-
ball, with young Ron Munn tak-
ing third to give Michigan a clean
sweep of the first three places. Tee
Francis demonstrated that he is
continuing to improve on the
trampoline by placing sixth in the
event.
.Great Performer
Richard Monpetit by qualifying
for the finals in every event in
which he competed strengthened
the belief that he will be one of
the great gymnasts to have per-
formed for the Maize and Blue.
Bill Lawler, who finished sev-
enth on the side horse gave every
indication of being a future Big
Ten star.
The Wolverines will swing into
Big Ten action on Jan. 10 in a
triangular meet at Iowa City, Iowa
with Iowa and Minnesota.

There was a time, and not too
very long ago either, when the
heavyweight championship was
more than just a resting place for
the best heavyweight of the time.
In fact, that glamorous posi-
tion was more often than not the

scene of many of the greatest
battles in fighting annals. Ihe
champion often put his title at
stake, pitting himself against the
best available challengers of the
time.t
Defends Title.
It was not strange for Joe Louis,
for example, to defend his title
three or four times" a year against
top contenders. And in his prime,
in 1941, the Browi Bomber put
his crown at stake seven times.
More recently, Rocky Marciano
always defended his title twice a
year against the best available
talent which, although not always
spectacular, was usually formid-
able.
But today the heavyweight title
scene is not the picture of activity
it used to be. Current champ Floyd
Patterson has defended his crown
only three times since he gained
it over two years ago by defeating
Archie Moore in a tournament to
fill the title Marciano vacated
upon retiring.
This year Patterson's only de-
fense has been his twelve round
knockout of Roy Harris in Los An-
geles last August. Although the
Elarris fight was not the insulting
mismatch the champ's previous
title fight with Pete Rademacher;
was, it was, nevertheless, a fight
lacking championship quality.
Inactivity
The immediate future does not
look much more active than the
past has been, although Patter-
son's manager, Cus D'Amato, haas
given the promise that the Champ
will see more action, if for no oth-
er reason than to prevent him
from becoming stableworn.
After the Harris fight, plans
were supposedly being made to ar-
range an indoor title fight with
Nino Valdes, not a particularly
great boxer, but one who would
be willing to mix it up with Pat-
terson. DAmato, however, could
not come to terms with Ned Irish,,
promoter for New York's Madison
Square Garden, nor anyone else
for that matter, and this fight,
along with the possibility of any
title fight this winter, fell by the
wayside.
Many new title contenders have
now come into view, however, es-
pecially after the recent happen-
ings on the other side of the At-
lantic. England's Henry Cooper
decisioned Zora Folley, then thej
number one ranked heavyweight

contender, British champion Bri-
an London stopped fourth-ranked
Willie Pastrano in five, and Swe-'
den's Ingenjar Johansson knocked
out highly touted Eddie Machen
in the first round of their bout.
Confused Ratings
This threw the heavyweight
ratings into more confusion than
ever, but it did help, however, to
find a logical contender, originally
thought to be Folley, for Patter-
son's title.
" The man 'now thought and
hoped to be Patterson's next chal-
lenger is the 26-year-old Johans-
ion, European Heavyweight Cham-
pion, and the present first-ranked
contender for Patterson's crown.
'Outlook for this fight, which
could easily gross a million dol-
lars, is quite encouraging.
D'Amato chooses the fighters
for his boy as carefully as the
NCAA looks over a college sus-
pected of illegal recruiting. And
as hard as D'Amato wishes to
look, he will find no reason to pre.
vent Johansson from fighting
Patterson. Especially encouraging
is that Johansson is in no way
connected with the International
Boxing Club, the organization
with which D'Amato is waging
his personal war.
A finalist in the heavyweight
division of the 1952 Olympics,'Jo-
hansson jumped into stardom with
his furious assault of Machen.
The undefeated contender's vic-
tories over London and tough
Archie McBride, along with the
Machen bout, rank as highlights
of his fistic career.
The results of this fight would
be felt on the boxing world itself,
which is now on many fronts a
rapidly dying sport. Only a big
fight, the kind a Patterson-
Johansson match would be, could
snap it out of its doldrums.

The problem wad not that
Marty had fallen in love with
a shirt. After all, he was
a Philosophy major.
The trouble was ... Marty
was in love with two shirts.
With Shirt No. 1, the Van
Heusen Century, the serious
Marty spent hours in heaven-
ly bliss. He worshipped the
revolutionary soft collar that
won't wrinkle ever. It was
Century's one-piece construc-
tion that drove him wild.
(Other collars never did any-
thiug for our boy Marty, ex-
cept wrinkle madly. You see,
other collars are three pieces,
fused or sewn together.)
With Shirt No.2, the amaz-
ing Van Heusen "Vantage,"
the gay, frivolous Marty lived
the life of carefree abandon.He

could wear it and wear it--
wash it-drip-dry it, or have
it tumble-dried automatically
--and wear it again in a matter
of hours. It was the most mon-
ey-saving love he ever had.
But when Marty was with
one shirt, he missed the other.
It was terrible. Like so many
others with the same problem,
Marty wrote to us. And so
it came to pass that the Van
Heusen "Century-Vantage"
was born. This shirt combined
theadvantagesof eachintoone
great shirt-a wash and wear,
no-iron, all cotton broadcloth
shirt with the soft collar that
won't wrinkle ever! And just
$5! Have you a problem?
