The Buckeyes also boast divers Randy Larson and Chuck Knorr. Both have won national cham- pionships in previous years, but Indian's Ken Sitzberger is the favorite in both the one- and three-meter events which he cap- tured last year. Bruce Brown of Michigan is expected to be his closest competitor, and Fred Brown gives the Wolverines a little more depth. But the Hoosiers have four other swimmers who garnered first places last year. Three members ofj the 400-yard medley relay team, Tom Tretheway, Pete Hammer, and Bob Williamson, are returning to defend their title. Tretheway, in addition, is the current title- holder in the 200-yard breast- stroke. The only champion Indiana lost was Fred Schmidt, winner of both butterfly events. To replace him, however, the Hoosiers have Aus- tralian Kevin Berry, gold medalist in the Olympics, Bill Utley, Ken Webb, and Bob Windle, all Big Ten champions, add to the Hoos- iers' hopes. Michigan State has Gary Dilley returning to defend two back- stroke titles, and he is backed by a strong corps of freestylers. Eastern Freestylers Gone This year Yale, because of the' Ivy League's grade-point feud with the NCAA, will not be par- ticipating, and this means that the likes of Don Schollander and a group of the nation's best free- stylers will leave a few points for other teams to pick up. The Wol- verines hope to take the lion's share of them. Besides Robie, Michigan has captain Rich Walls, Bill Farley, Bob Hoag, Bill Groft, and Ken Wiebeck competing in freestyle events. The Wolverines have added strength in the backstroke with Russ Kingery and Rees Orland, in the butterfly with Tom O'Malley backing up Robie, and Paul Scheerer in the breaststroke. Wolverines 'Fire Up' This team has been fired up to come back and beat Indiana since the night of its disappointing loss ito the Hoosiers in the Big Tens. And the predominant feeling ris that Indiana can be whipped be- cause the NCAAs are more of a Trojans contest of the stars rather than depth. So the battle for first place will be among the same three teams as last year. Southern Methodist will sport a talented team, but is not expected to be any great threat to the big names. An interesting aspect of the meet is that the Academy pool is at an altitude of 7,060 feet, nearly the same as that in Mexico City, site of the 1968 Olympic Games. Coaches, athletes, and trainers will be paying close attention to any effects this has on the swimmers. And for the first time in, a na- tional championship meet the electric timing system invented at Michigan will be used, virtually eliminating all possibilities of ties. The system is accurate to within five one-millionths of a second in judging swimmers' finishes.

Denver captured third place with a 77-74 victory over Akron, Ohio, in an earlier game. The Oklahomans held Russell in check during the early going but he broke loose in the late stages of the opening half to pull Dear- born to within one point, 34-33, at halftime after trailing by as much as 11 points. Bartlesville pulled back into a six-point lead early in the second half as Ray Carey and Bobby Rascoe hit from behind screens. Dearborn caught up at 47-47 on a follow shot by Russell. The game was tied at 49, 55 and 59 before a jump shot by Dorrie Murray of Detroit University gave Dearborn the lead for good at 61- 59 with less than eight minutes left. A fantastic follow shot by Russell moments.later gave Dear- born a 63-59 lead. * * * BOSTON-The Cincinnati Roy- als checked a Boston rally mid- way through the fourth period and defeated the Celtics 107-103 last night in the opener of the Na- tional Basketball Association East- ern Division semifinal playoffs. Adrian Smith joined Oscar Rob- ertson and Jerry Lucas in pow- ering the Royals to a 1-0 lead in the best-of-five series before a Boston Garden crowd of 9,510.
