The coaches have the requisite
talent available to them for a
highly competitive team. Spear-
heading the returning veterans is
Bob Fehrs, who won the Big Ten
crown at 123 pounds last season.
As a sophomore, Fehrs then went
on to place second in the NCAA
championships, losing 8-5 in his
final match. Fehrs also captured
the Midlands title early in the
year.
It is likely that Fehrs again will
wrestle at 123 "if he makes the
weight," says Keen. If not, the
veteran Tino Lambros will com-
pete with sophomore Bob Kruger
for the slot. and Fehrs will be
entered at 130. Also a contender
at this weight is Dave Dozeman
which finished third in the na-
tionals in 1964. Dozeman sustain-
ed injuries in an automobile ac-
cident, missing a year of com-
petition, but retained the year of
eligibility.

The Void
A void exists at 167, the spot
vacated by last year's captain and
Big Ten champ Rick Bay. "The
top spot is wide open," Keen com-
mented Thursday. Bill Waterman,
whose injuries from an automobile
accident kept him out of competi-
tion last season, ranks as a prime
candidate for the post. Another
sophomore, Tom Saunders, has
furnished most of the competition
for Waterman so far.
The graduation of Big Ten
champ 'Chris Stowell leaves an
opening in the 177 pound weight
class also. Another sophomore,
Wayne Wentz, rates a good chance
to appear in action here.
Two behemoths are in the run-
ning for the heavyweight assign-
ment. Mike Koehler captured sixth
place in the nationals last year,
though he wrestled behind the
season will shape up, since most
of the Big Ten schools will send
contingents. In addition, Iowa
State, the defending national
champion, will be there. The
tourney, which will be held in
LaGrange, Illinois December 29-
30, has been won the last two
years by Michigan.
A lot stands between the Wol-
verines and another Big Ten
championship. "MSU has a ter-
rific outfit; they're really loaded
this year," revealed Keen, "and
Iowa, Minnesota and Northwestern
are all powerhouses. Ohio State
has the best team they've had
there in the last fifteen years."
The regular season opens with a
quadrangular meet in Ann Arbor
January 8. in which Michigan
faces Indiana in the afternoon
and Iowa in the evening. Toledo
is the other participant. The dual
meet season begins January 15
when the Wolverines journey to
Evanston..
The Big Ten championships and
NCAA meet are in March, seem-
ingly a long way off. But classes
are in session daily, because by
then it is hoped the grapplers will
have that Keen edge which deter-
mines a champion.

GOOD NEWS (AT LAST!)
ABOUT CAR INSURANCE
FOR YOUNG MEN-MARRIED OR SINGLE-WHO QUALIFY
Student Government Council and The Office of Religious Affairs present
If you're under 25, you know what a big
extra premium you pay for car insurance.
Now, Sentry Insurance offers a 15% dis-
count for young men who qualify. (This
is in addition to Sentry's 15% discount
for driver education.)
HOW TO QUALIFY
Young men under 25 qualify for the Sentry Preferred Young Driver Discount on the
basis of a simple questionnaire that takes only about 20 minutes. It is not a test of
driving skill or knowledge. It is completely confidential. There is no penalty for young
men who do not qualify for the extra discount. Come to the center listed below to find
out what this can mean to you!
