There will be a double swim
feature here this weekend, with
the Big Ten Invitational Relays
Saturday at 2 p.m., preceded by
a dual meet with Iowa State to-
morrow night.
Swimmers from seven schools-
Michigan, Michigan State, Indi-
ana, Ohio State, Western Ontario,
Iowa State, and Kenyon will per-
form at the fourth annual Relays.
The Buckeyes will bring only their
divers, though, because of a pre-
viously scheduled meet with Miami
(0.).
( Predict Close Battle
Coach Gus Stager commented,
"The meet should develop into
two tight battles, with the three
Big Ten teams fighting for the
title. The other entries have
enough good swimmers to score in
some of the events, and these
three teams should have their own
existing contest for fourth place."
The Wolverines will be at full
force for the meet, and Stager
will exhibit the potential power
that is expected to repeat the
championship performances of last
year. The "M" coach, however, is
not overconfident.
Trio of NCAA Champs
Looking over the opposition, he
remarked, "Both the Spartans and'
Hoosiers should give us a close
match, and Ohio State's divers,
Sam Hall and Ron O'Brien, will
make that event tight."
Michigan State has three re-
turning national champions to
bolster its squad: Don Patterson
in the 100-yd. freestyle, Billy
Steuart at the 440-yd. and 1500-
meter freestyle events, and Frank
Modine, title-holder at 100- and
200-yard breastroke.
Indiana also boasts new stars
to strengthen its team in Frank
McKinney, AAU backstroke king;
Bill Barton, a top butterfly per-
former who has beaten Michigan's
Tony Tashnick and Cy Hopkins;
and sprinter John Parke.
Relays' Purpose
Stager, co-originator of the In-
vitational Relays, said the purpose
of the meet is to give competing
swim teams the advantage of hav-
ing one more "big" meet each
season within the Conference
schedule. Other non-Big Ten
schools have been invited to add
competition, he added.
Commenting on tomorrow's meet
against Iowa State, the Wolverine
mentor said, "I'll use this match
to test most of my younger swim-
mers." Michigan is heavily favored.

"Are all these players stu-
dents?"
When informed they were, Ana-
toli Tarasov, coach of the Rus-
sian National hockey team, ex-
claimed,. "Then they are worthy
of more praise than I have al-
ready given them."
Speaking to inquisitive news-
men, players, and coaches in the
Michigan locker room after his
team had won a 7-3 decision at
Detroit Tuesday night, Tarasov
went on to say, "In Russia we
have no student teams which can
compare tothis one.
"They are truly fine hockey
players and if they had more time
to practice they would become
much better."
W hen asked about the evening's
game he said, "We play better
against the American style of play
than against the Canadian style.
Tonight we played against a Ca-
nadian-style team and they gave
us much trouble."
Roughest Yet
"It was the roughest game we
have played in this country so
far. The Canadian style is the
roughest game played and tonight
we played against Canadian boys
who have learned their lessons
well.
Unlike many American coaches,
Trasov was unwilling just to an-
swer questions, shooting back
many queries himself to the at-
tentive audience.
He was especially interested in
what the Americans thought were
his team's weaknesses. He hearti-
ly concurred when the players and
coaches said the Soviets' greatest
dificulties are in clearing the
puck out of their own defensive
zone - especially when poke-
checked - and failing to take ad-
vantage of fast-break opportuni-
ties.

mates catch up and then set up
the well-patterned plays which
are their forte.
"Do you think it is worth four
dollars to see us play?" he asked
the writers. He again agreed with
them when they answered that
this particular game was worth
that much, but that on the av-
erage National Hockey League
games are more exciting, and fans
would rather pay four dollars to
see Gordie Howe or Maurice Ri-
chard than amateurs.

Renfrew said, "I think ,we
played a pretty good game. Take

and we held them even. Our de-
fense was very good. They worked
hard and did a really fine Job.
Ross Childs was excellent in the
nets in the first period, Joe Se-
linger didn't have a chance in the

in the last period."

A big factor in the Chicago club's

Saturday night former Maple
Leafs Eric Nesterenko and Earl
Balfour scored a goal apiece to

CINCINNATI -The powerful
NCAA Council last night slapped
another two-year probationary
period on the University of South-
ern California,
The probationary period, com-
ing just as a previous penalty
could have been lifted, was based
on charges USC had offered air
transportation to two student ath-
letes - now in school - beyond
that permitted by the NCAA codes.
USC will not be permitted to
enter athletes or teams in any
NCAA championship events or

of 28 cooperating events for the
first year; it will not be permitted
to participate in any television
programs under control of the
NCAA for the full two years; and
any further violation of rules dur-
ing the period will be cause of
a recommendation for expulsion
from the NCAA.

A far cry from the shenanigans
of the professional wrestling which
appears on television every week,
the college mat sport has its own
set of rules, which promote the
sportsmanship and competition
common in all college sports.
A college meet, such as tomor-
row's Michigan-Indiana contest
here, is decided on the results of
the eight individual matches.
Team scoring is determined by
whether a match results in a fall,
a decision, or a draw.
Five points are awarded a team
for a fall and three for a decision.
In a dual meet the two teams split
four points in case of a draw.
Classified by Weight
Wrestlers are classified for their
matches according to the eight
weight divisions, which range from
123 pounds to heavyweight (over
177 pounds).
