8II THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, MARCH 11, 1964 SIX THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY. MARCH 11. 1964 n...a a} + aarv a aryrv cers Capture Second Crown THREE TITLES UP FOR GRABS: I-M Open House Championships Tonight By JIM TINDALL Michigan's hockey team brought home its second championship of the season-the WCHA title--by beating Michigan State twice this weekend, 9-4 and 13-4. "We played pretty well this weekend," said Coach Al Renfrew. "State was down a little with goal- tending problems, but it was a real good series. MSU is always tough to play against. Renfrew was referring to the fact that Spartan goalie Alex Terpay was stricken with neck problems and was not able to continue play in Saturday night's game at the Coli- seum. "Roger Galipeau had a real good series, and Barry MacDonald also did a good job on defense. Of course, Gordie Wilkie and Gary Butler turned in fine performances also," commented Renfrew on his team's performance. Champs Uider Belt With the WCHA championship under their belt along with the Big Ten championship, the Wol- verine icers are looking towards the NCAA championships to be held in Denver in two weeks. In order to get an invitation to the NCAA tournament, the Maize and Blue must win a series with the fourth place team, Michigan Tech this Thursday and Friday at the Coliseum. The winner will be decided by total goals for the two games. Michigan has beaten Tech and goalie Gary Bauman three out of four times this season, their only loss coming two weeks ago at Houghton. Tech Chooses "M i hi g a n Tech, by some strange deal, was able to choose who they wanted to play in the tournament," explained Renfrew. Minnesota, the third place team, is not participating in the playoffs, because of their exams. So, in oth- er words, Tech finished in fourth place, but with Minnesota out they were really third for a playoff berth, but they were able to choose who they wanted to oppose," add- ed Renfrew. The winner of this, the third Michigan-Michigan Tech series of the season, will play the winner Loyola Defeats Murray State EVANSTON ({P)-Eighth-ranked Loyola defeated Murray State, 101- 91, as expected last night to qualify as Michigan's opponent in the semi-finals of the NCAA Mideast regional Friday night. Rambler Jim Coleman led all scorers with 27 points, followed by teammate Johnny Egan and Mur- ray State's Jim Jennings, who both notched 24. Ron Miller, with 21, was the third Loyola player to hit the 20-point bracket. Ohio University shaded Louis- ville, 71-69, in overtime last night, to gain another semi-final berth. The Bobcats will meet Kentucky Friday night before the Michigan- Loyola game. of the Denver-North Dakota ser- ies at the ice of the team that is highest in the standings on Sat- urday night for the top slot in the conference playoffs. Michigan, barring unforeseen circumstances, will finish the sea- son with All-America candidate Bob Gray in the nets, and burly defenseman Tom Polonic, the sec- ond leading scorer in the WCHA, on the ice, as both were re-instat- ed to the team last weekend. Renfrew expects "two terrific games with Michigan Tech. All of our games with them have been real good games, and none of them were walkaways by any means. They lost Scotty Watson, a real good hockey player, for the season because of a broken leg the last time we played them there. That will hurt them, but they still have Bauman.' To Renfrew's recollection, this is "the first time that Michigan has won the WCHA champion- ship." With two trophies in the trophy case already, only five games stand between the Wolver- ines and the NCAA title which Michigan has not won since 1956. -Daily-Bruce Taylor OUT, OUT, OUT-Michigan State goalie Nick Musat (15) moves out of his net in an attempt to keep Michigan's Gary Butler from the puck (arrow).

Paddleball matches will start at Informal Workouts Other activities scheduled elude informal workouts by in- the Gymnasts Invert 'M' to Fourth _ , By TOM ROWLAND Michigan's wrestlers went into last weekend's Big Ten champion- ships geared to face a rugged Northwestern team that on paper looked to be up to giving the Wol- verines a hard go for the title. Coach Cliff Keen switched Rick Bay and Chris Stowell down to w e i g h ts where they hadn't wrestled all year, and still the veteran headmaster had doubts. "These fellows may be just all we bargained for-or more," said the coach warily, looking over the Wildcat lineup the day before the meet began. He pointed to Dave Kreider at 123 pounds, and Bob Plaskas at 130, and Stu Marshall at 157. "You know, if we don't keep our heads up we just could get beat." Yeah, Yeah Meanwhile, back at the ranch Bay, defending champ at 157, injured a shoulder and had to for- feit out of the meet. Wolverine 137-pound hopeful Cal Jenkins was bounced 6-1 in the prelimin- ary round, as was 177-pound cap- tain Wayne Miller, Stowell never saw the light of the quarterfinals. But Michigan won it--the Wolver- ines garnered their second straight title while outdistancing Iowa 56-42, and a pair of Keen's men walked off with individual cham- pionships. The Northwestern threat never materialized. The Wildcats didn't place a single individual winner. Kreider got knocked off in the quarterfinals but returned in the consolations for fourth place. Plaskas never won a match, and Marshall followed the same fate as Kreider. Total NU point com- pilation was 32. Big Surprise Meanwhile Michigan's Ralph Bahna, who barely managed a winning dual meet. season, raised everyone's eyebrows by whipping through the lightweight brackets for the 123-pound title. If the fact that Bahna beat OSU's seemingly invincible Mike Berry wasn't enough, the Wolverine senior notched a pin in the quarter-finals and won on a last second take- down in the semi's. The final vic- tory was easier, a 9-0 triumph over Purdue's highly-regarded Ralph Trail. Lee Deitrick picked up the other Wolverine individual title and again the toughest match came before the finals. Deitrick had to make some fast last-second points to beat Iowa's Joe Greenlee in the semi's-a takedown in the final tick of the clock did it as Deitrick scored his third straight mat vic- tory over the Hawkeyes in two years. 7:00 with semi-final action in the social fraternity and residence hall divisions. Also scheduled are the semi-finals in the all-campus doubles tournament. The Judo Club will hold exhibi- tion matches under the direction of Dr. Sachio Ashida starting at 8:00. At 7:00, Psychology All-Stars meet the Baltics, and The Museum of Zoology plays Cooley Lab (A) in exhibition volleyball games. Weightlifting Club, a badminton demonstration by members of the international center, exhibition squash matches between faculty and students, and a tennis demon- stration featuring faculty members and the Michigan freshman team. As an added attraction for the evening, a clown diving show will be presented by members of the varsity and freshman diving squad under the direction of Coach hick Kimball. There will be no charge for the evening's program. Bay watched the 157 finals from the bleachers, his right arm in a sling after a shoulder injury in Friday's victory over Dale Smith of Purdue. "We took Rick to the hospital after the match," said Michigan assistant coach Denny Fitzgerald. "and after taping him up good we decided that we'd see how well he could wrestle in the semi's. But with that injury and the tape he could only manage about two moves." Midway through his semi-final match with Gopher Lee Gross,'the eventual 157-pound winner, Bay was forced to call it quits. As for the early-defeated Wol- verines, they all came on strong in the wrestle-backs. Bill Johan- nesen and Stowell won third-place honors, while Jenkins and Miller both fell to a close referee's deci- sion after two overtime periods. Time and Roger Pillath separ- ated Bob Spaly from the heavy- weight crown. Pillath's one point riding time edged Spaly, 2-1. By LLOYD GRAFF "M inverted to the fourth" was the code and they made it stick, at Madison. This little cryptogram was post- ed on the door of the gym where the Michigan Gymnastics team practiced in preparation for last weekend's Big Ten championship which the Wolverines won by out- pointing rivals Iowa and Michigan State. Deciphered, the ditty means invert the Michigan M and you get W. W to fourth stands for we will win at Wisconsin. What will 'we win?' The fourth consecutive crown in gymnastics for Michigan. The victory was a narrow one for Coach Newt Loken and the team. Michigan held a small lead throughout the meet and did not clinch it until the last event, tumbling. The tumblers swept the top three places to accumulate 28 points. Mike Henderson led the way with John Hamilton second and Phil Bolton third. 'M' Notches Firsts Michigan notched two other firsts in the parallel bars and trampoline. Arno Lascari won his specialty in a closely contested battle with Todd Gates of Michi- gan State. After the' preliminaries, the two were exactly tied, but Las- cari won by a half a point on Sat- urday with an average score of 94.75. On the tramp Hamilton ed the pack Friday night with Iowa's George Hery second and Gary Er- win, Michigan's defending NCAA champ in third. Erwin came up with a superb 97.5 the second day to pass Hery and tie Hamilton for the championship. Fred Sanders Michigan's third talented bounder finished fourth. Alex Frecska astonished the crowd and the coaches in the pre- lims by registering a second place in the sidehorse. He slipped a bit in the finals to take a 5th but his finish still ranks as a major sur- prise. Frecska also won a fifth in the all-around competition be- hind teammate Lascari who took fourth. Jim Curzi, Michigan State's out- standing sophomore, won the all- around narrowly over Glenn Gail- is of Iowa. Curzi was burdened by a barely healed shoulder separa- tion which caused him particular difficulty on the still rings. Spectator Treat The rings were a real spectator treat as perhaps the two best ring men in the country competed, MSU's Dale Cooper and Jim Hop- per of Wisconsin. Both dazzled the crowd with near flawless routines. They tied with 97 on Fri- day, but Cooper was too perfect on Saturday getting a score of 98.5 to Hopper's 97. In floor ex, Michigan's ace Hen- derson rebounded from a disheart- ening fourth place score of 78 in the prelims with an 89.5. This score pushed him into 'a tie for third for the event. John Cashman aided the Michi- gan cause by taking a fifth in the high bar as a sophomore while another first year man, Ned Duke accounted for a ninth place finish in the parallel bars. The next and last engagement of the season for Loken's squad will be the NCAA Championships to be held at Los Angeles State College on March 27-8. Michigan will be aiming for its second straight national title. As was the situation last sea- son Michigan will find its stiffest competition from the top Big.Ten teams plus such national powers as S. Illinois and S. California. I~ 'Overperformance' Puts Thinclads on Top 6 By STEVE GALL Michigan's amazing domination of the Big Ten track meet at Co- lumbus last weekend best can be referred to as an "over-perform- ance" of all the cindermen. Coach Don Canham had con- servatively figured on about 46 points from the team. But when the final event of the afternoon was over, the Wolverines had counted a startling 67 points, only 48% shy of the all-time mark set by Michigan in 1944. And what made it even more convincing was the fact that this year's performance fell only two points short of the 1961 champion Wolverines. That team was stacked with such great talent as Bennie McRae, Tom Robinson, Ergas Leps, and Dick Cephas and generation The Campus Inter-Arts Magazine will be on sale MVARCH 12 Featuring Carl Oglesby F.

Coffin Figure Compositions F3rk Eenberg 35 ON WAY BACK UP: Tankers Place Second Fourth StraightSeason By BILL BULLARD Coach Gus stager's swimming team was the only Wolverine squad to not win a Big Ten cham- pionship last weekend but the tankers demonstrated that they are on their way back up. It was the fourth straight sec- ond place to Indiana's powerhouse but the point difference between the two teams was the lowest in the past three meets. Besides this, Michigan won its first individual championships since the 1961 meet. Sophomores Bill Farley and Rich Walls acoounted for 31/2 titles and 21/2 Big Ten records between them. Farley won the 500- and the 1650-yard freestyle events while Walls won the 100-yard freestyle race and tied Indiana's Chuck Ogilby at 200 yards. Smashes Record Farley's 4:57.6 time in the 500 smashed Indiana junior Gary Ver- hoeven's 4:59.0 mark. At 1650 yards, after swimming 66 lengths, Farley was clocked at 17:36.0, ty- ing the record of Alan Somers of Indiana. It is interesting to note that the timers clicked their stop- watches from the other end of the pool from where Farley finished. Walls set his Big Ten record in the 200 preliminaries. His 1:47.0 time broke Verhoeven's 1:48.2 mark. In the finals, the judges called the race a tie even though Walls swam a 1:47.3 which was the fastest time recorded. At 100 yards, Walls won by :00.2 second over Michigan State's Jim MacMillan in :48.3. This was one second above Gopher Steve Jack- man's Big Ten record. Walls also was fourth in the 50-yard free- style. Lowest Margin Indiana's victory margin of 51% points over Michigan was the low- est in the past three meets. In 1961, when Indiana won its first conference swimming title, the Hoosiers only defeated the Wol- verines by 3% points. Since then the contest has hardly been close. Michigan also picked up four impressive second places in the meet, two each from juniors Ed Boothman and Ed Bartsch. Booth- man was runnerup to Indiana div- ing ace Rick Gilbert on both the high and low boards. Bartsch, swimming in lane one in both the 100- and 200-yard backstroke events, lost both times to Indiana sophomore Pete Ham- mer. At 200 yards Bartsch had his closest chance at victory, finishing second by only :00.3 second. Top Sophomores Of the 22 individual finalist places Michigan posted in the meet, 13 were by sophomores, five were by juniors, and only four were by seniors. In the 200-yard freestyle, Farley won Michigan's only individual third place. Fourth places were won by sen- iors Tom Dudley and John Cand- ler and sophomores Rees Orland and Geoff D'Atri. Fifth places were taken by senior Geza Bodo- lay (2), junior Lanny Reppert, and sophomore Bruce Brown. Brown added another sixth place along with fellow sophomores Bill Spann, Dave Roadhouse, and Steve Rabinovitch. was the one that Canham had al- ways called "the greatest ever in the Big Ten." Five Winners Michigan had five individual winners: Captain Roger Schmidt in the shotput; Al Ammerman, high jump; Des Ryan, mile; Kent Bernard in the 600-yard run; and Ted Kelly in the half mile. Being shut out in only the 440, the pole vault, and the low hurdles, Michigan picked up valu- able points in the other 12 events, including five second place fin- ishes. On Friday night, the Wolverines were put on the success road with o ut s ta n d ing performances by broad jumpers John Rowser and Tom Sweeney, placing second and fifth, respectively. Rowser, sopho- more football halfback, leaped 23'11", a full 8 inches past his previous best. Sweeney, clearing 23 feet for the first time in his career, turned in a fine jump of 23'4".0 Pleasant Surprises On Saturday, pleasant surprises came flowing in from nearly every event. In the high jump, senior letterman Al Ammerman finally lived up to his potential by pres- sure jumping 6'8", good enough for the crown. Ammerman, who hadn't cleared more than 6'6" all year, wasn't expected to pose seri- ous danger to the powerful three- some of Bill Holden, Wisconsin's defending champion, Indiana's Cornelius Miller and teammate Bob Densham. Canham, who wasn't concerned over Ammerman's mediocre per- formances during the season, pre- dicted his senior jumper will do well when the pressure was on. Sophomore leaper, Densham, hav- ing trouble with his steps, cleared 6'7", good for second place. Al- though disappointed with his run- ner-up showing, Densham de- clared, "I was happy that Al took it if I couldn't." Sprinting Points Sprinters Ken Burnley and Dorie Reid added valuable points as they took third and fifth, re- spectively in 4 the 60-yard dash. Reid especially excelled with a :06.2 clocking in the prelims, his fastest of the year. Senior sprinter, Mac Hunter added to the mounting total in the mid-afternoon with a strong second place finish in the 300-yard" dash behind Illinois' Mel Blan- heim. Other surprises were Chris Murray, who turned in a third place finish in the two-mile event; Roy Woodton, who took a fourth in the 70-yard high-hurdles and Dave Hayes, who finished fourth in the mile. t 4.
