Sometimes the behemoth, heavy-

Night and Day,
Although on opposite ends of
the weight spectrum, Porter and
Fehrs, anchor-men of this year's,
version of Cliff Keen's Michigan
mat squad, have been in the past
consistently on the same end of;
the won-loss ledger. The one that
makes coaches smile.

"Porter, Fehrs, and Kamman
form a nucleus of our most ex-
perienced men," reiterated Bay,
"but we have returning veterans
at a number of other positions.
We're not a three-man squad."
But while there are other re-
turning veterans, their positions
JIM KAMMAN
are not yet set. "It's hard to tell
where each will be right now.
And anybody could be pushed by
a sophomore," Bay emphasized.
Along with Kamman, veterans
Fred Stehman, a junior, and Burt
Merical, a senior, will vie for spots
in the 147, 152, and 160 pound
divisions. Seniors Jon Headrick
and Sid Kraizman, who have seen
little previous action, are other
contenders.
The 167-pound division may pre-
sent more problems. "This is a
difficult weight to fill," explained
Bay, "not because of lack of man-
power, but because most of the
boys have their natural weights
well above or below this."
Juniors Wayne Hansen and Bill
Waterman split duties at the spot
last year, and therefore are likely
candidates. Sophomore Pete Cor-
nell and junior Wayne Wentz,, last
year's 177 pound regular, may
wind up at either weight.
Sophomores have shots at two
positions in the lower weights,
although senior Gordon Weeks,
with some experience, may be
considered the favorite at 137

lin will press Weeks while another
sophomore. Geoff Hansen, has the
inside track at 130.
Big Test
The Midlands tourhament on
Dec. 29 and 30 should give Keen
and Bay the opportunity to survey
the squad's potential. Not only can'
Michigan test its depth by enter-
ing two or three full squads (al-
though only one previously desig-
nated squad can count toward
team totals), but the Wolverines
will get a first look at most of the
Big Ten schools.
"The Midlands is one of the out-
standing tournaments in the na-
tion," enthused Bay, "and it rep-
resents a real test, especially for
us. With our academic set-up, we
get a much later start than most
schools. This will be our first tour-
nament, while many schools have
already started because they don't
have to worry about finals now."
A few Michigan players from the
East will participate in the Wilkes-
Barre, Pa., tournament instead of
the Midlands.
Michigan finished third in the
Midlands last year, after winning
the LaGrange, Ill., two-day affair
the previous two years. The grap-
plers went on to cop second in
Big Ten team honors last season
behind Michigan State, then made
a strong showing in the NCAA
championships, gaining a fifth
place team mark.
