Mainly it was a personal suc- cess for scrappy Gil Larose, the little French Canadian who refus- ed to quit despite odds that ap- peared insurmountable. The week before the team-traveled to Co- lumbus, Larose injured the middle finger of his left hand. Stiffness and swelling set in and it did not look as if he would be able to ef- fectively compete in the confer- ence meet. Scratched from Sidehorse But Larose worked Friday in the preliminaries, placing in the finals for every event except tum- bling. He was scratched from side- horse because the Wolverines al- ready had the maximum of three qualifiers: Paul Levy, Arno Las- cari, and Lew Fenner. On his best event, high bar, La- rose was unable to grasp the bar due to his swollen finger. Never- theless, he competed, at times grabbing the bar with his thumb or using, his wrist. There were tears in his eyes on his dismount, due to the pain of grasping. De- spite his handicap, Larose was awarded 901/2 points leaving him tentatively fourth for Saturday's finals. Placed Third In all-around Friday, an event he might have won and wanted to win, Larose placed third behind Il- linois' Ray Hadley and teammate Lascari. But in doing so, he fur- ther. aggravated his finger. Saturday, with the team title at stake, Larose was at his best. In all five events he worked, Larose received more points than on the previous-day. He finished third on high bar, still rings, and parallel bar, fourth, in free exercise, and ninth on trampoline. He person- ally accounted for 41 points. Personal Success For sophomore. Lascari, who amassed 421/a points, the meet was also a personal success. He took Michigan's only first place on an individual event, dethroning Larry Bassett of Michigan State for the parallel bar title. RENT a TYPEWRITER (Portable) $5.00 per Month Askabout our rental purchase plan OVERBECK'S BOOKSTORE As a sophomore, and as a gym- nast who had not previously com- peted in high school, the meet loomed large as a trial to see whether Lascari would succeed un- der pressure. The results left no doubt. On the basis of both his and Larose's strong performances in the conference meet and during the season, they appear clear fav- orites to contend for the all-. around title being vacated by the graduating Hadley. The Wolverines' biggest surprise was senior Ralph Bromund. Bro- mund muscled his way through a long, difficult routine to maintain the second place position he held Friday with a total of 92 points barely ahead of Larose with 912/2. 'Going for Broke' Previously Bromund had never scored so highly and after the' meet admitted that he, as a sen-, ior, was "going for broke." The maneuver that catapulted him to' second was the Olympic cross which no other Big Ten gymnast has executed this season. Not surprising himself was spir- ited Lew Hyman who took sec- ond in tumbling behind Hal1 Holmes of Illinois. Although not matching Holmes' 97%, Hyman was consistent with double 90's using difficult tricks he had saved especially for the Big Tens. It was no secret that Hyman was hoping for this second, but for a sopho- more the goal seemed almost out of reach in view of the tough Big Ten competition in the event. The meet's only real disappoint- ment for the victorious Wolverines came to captain and last year's trampoline champion, Tom Oster- land. In Friday's preliminaries Oster- land appeared to lose points more on form than on difficulty. Not- withstanding, he was third closely -Daily-Ed Langs AROUND WE GO--And around Arno Lascari did enroute to some of his 42 points in Michigan's second straight Big Ten Gym- nastics crown. Only a sophomore, Lascari will be heard from quite a bit in the next two seasons. By BILL BULLARD "Everyone was great." , This was Coach Gus Stager's re- action to the performances of his swimmers last weekend at the Big Ten Swimming Championships. The Wolverines were second to an Indiana team that broke four American, four NCAA, and eight Big Ten records. Almost all the Wolverine swim- mers swam their fastest races of the season either in the prelimi- naries or in the finals. "Enn Man- nard set us up by showing every- one it could be done," said Coach; Stager. Fifth Mannard qualified fifth in the 200-yard butterfly with a time of 2:03.5 and took fifth in the finals at 2:02.4. His time in the finals was 4.3 seconds less than his best time in the dual meet season. The 200-yard butterfly was the third event of the meet and Mannard's improvement seemed to be an ex- ample to other in later events. Jeff Moore also came through for Michigan in this event when his time of 2:01.3 in the last heat of the preliminaries put him in the finals where he was fourth. He and Mannard, both sophomores, were two of the three non-seniors in the finals of the 200-yard butterfly. Another Wolverine sophomore, Jeff Longstreth, was fourth in the 100-yard butterfly in 54.4. Long- streth swam the butterfly leg on the Michigan third-place medley relay team. He was backed up in the 100 by Mannard in eighth place, Carlos Canepa in ninth place, and Moore in twelfth place. Canepa also took a tenth in the 200-yard butterfly. Leads Relay Team . Outstanding sprinter Jim Kerr was disqualified Friday night in the 50-yard freestyle finals but came back Saturday to take fourth in the 100-yard freestyle and lead the freestyle relay team to a third- place finish. Kerr had qualified for the finals in the50. His qualifying time tied the second fastest time. Twice in the finals he jumped the gun. On the third attempt to start the race, Kerr tottered on the edge of the starting block when the starter was slow to shoot the gun after the swimmers had taken their marks. Kerr grabbed the starting block to keep from going into the water and the starter ruled that this was a false start. The rules committee of the meet held a special meeting to consider the starter's decision and it was upheld. According to NCAA rules, "A contestant who unnecessarily delays in assuming the steady starting position after the com- mand 'Take your marks' should be charged with a false start." No False Starts From this unfortunate beginning, Kerr recorded his fastest 100-yard freestyle time twice the next day. He was among the four swimmers tied for sixth place in the prelimi- naries at 50.2. In the swim-off, he was clocked at :49.1 and won the right to compete in the finals. He swam another :49.1 in the finals which was fast enough for fourth place. In none of the three 100- yard freestyle races he swam on Saturday was he charged with a false start. Three breaststrokers turned in their fastest times of the" season in the 200-yard event. Sophomore Jon Baker's 2:17.0 would have qualified him third if he hadn't been disqualified for "dipping" his head under the water. Neverthe- less, junior Dick Nelson (2:18.0) and sophomore Geza Bodolay (2:20.0) made the finals and fin- ished fifth and sixth, respectively. Nelson set a 100-yard NCAA record of 1:01.3 in the prelimi- naries which was broken by Chet Jastremski in a later heat. In the finals he lost to Jastremski by .1 of a second. Bodolay was fifth (1:03.6) and Baker was seventh (1:04.0). In the 200 - yard backstroke finals, Mike Reissing placed fourth with 2:04.5. His preliminary quali- fying time of 2:04.2 broke Fred Wolf's varsity record of 2:04.4. Wolf took sixth place in the 100- yard backstroke after winning a swim-off to make the finals. Strong Points Distance freestyle events were Wolverine strong points. In the 1500-meter freestyle, sophomore RoDy Burry was third, junior War- ren Uhler was fourth, junior John Dumont was fifth, and sophomore Carlos Canepa was seventh. Bur- ry's time was more than six sec- onds under the Big Ten record set in 1961. Burry and captain Bill Darnton were fifth and sixth in the 440- yard freestyle. Both swimmers re- corded their fastest times of the season in the preliminaries. Du- mont and Uhler took seventh and eighth places in the 440 with their best performances of the season. Darnton's 2:02.9 in taking fourth in the 220-yard freestyle was his fastest of the season. TICE'S MEN'S SHOP 1107 So. University - Across from the AA Bank in Campus Village following the leader, Steve John- son of Michigan State by one point. In Saturday's finals Oster- land modified his routine accord- ingly; but the results were disas- trous. The judges appeared to reverse their earlier positions and sub- tracted severely for difficulty. Os- terland's routine was perfect. He did not wander and his form was undoubtedly the best for the event. Nevertheless, he received an 88, 89, 86, 91 which left him fourth. Except for Osterland's disap- pointment, Coach Newt Loken was happy. His comment was: "The boys all came through in fine fashion and are certainly one of the finest teams I have ever seen. They all pushed throughout the season and this weekend. They deserved to win and I'm proud of every one of them."

A t for SOUNDS FROM THE By PETE DiLORENZI Pride reigned supreme in the Michigan wrestling room yester- day afternoon. It seemed almost as if the team had won a conference champion- ship, and, if the truth be known, it didn't miss one by much. The narrow five-point margin separ- ating the Wolverines from the Big Ten'crown won by Iowa 51-46-far more than vaguely' reminiscent of last year's four-;point margin. of defeat to Michigan State--might very easily have been a five- point margin of victory. "Any one of five or six matches might have tipped the scales in our direction. Hobbs (George, 123- pounder from Michigan Mtate) had to wrestle Parker (Norman, 123-pounder of Iowa and cham- pion at the weight) with an in- jured leg. A win by Hobbs would1 have meant that we would be only two points behind Iowa,', said coach Cliff Keen. "Speaking of that 123-pound division, our boy Carl Rhodes might very well have had a shot at the finals if he had not had to wrestle Hobbs in the semi- finals. As it was, he lost to Hobbs 4-2 in an overtime match. Best Man "Then, in the 130-lb. division, Gary Wilcox ran into the best man in the meet, Iowa's Tom Huff. In his first match, he beat Michigan State's Bill Gucciardo 7-6. Then, in the semi's he went way over his head to beat Huff. He gave everything he had but lost 10-6. "At 137, Fritz (Kellermann) won us his third consecutive Big Ten crown. "Fritz was at his very best. He was razor-sharp in his reactions and seemed almost savage in his movements. It was a great come- back by a great competitor. "Our other Big Ten 'Champion (Captain Don) Corriere at 167- lbs. 'was very well poised. He had some close moments, but he didn't want to take any -chances and lose because of over-eagerness like last year. "At 147-lbs., Jimmy (Keen) lost a close match to Minnesota's Tom Rubis but gave it all he had. He too was a victim of trying too hard in one match-and not having anything left for another. "Jack Barden lost a very close match to Indiana's John Maroni. Jack looked sharp at the begin- ning but just couldn't seem to come back Good Job "Our only loser in the pre- liminaries, Wayne Miller, our 157- pounder, did a very good job even in defeat. "At heavyweight, we saw four of the best that I have seen in the conference, and, I'm sure, anywhere. John Baum (MSU), Rory Weber (Northwestern), Sher- wyn Thorson (Iowa) and Pillath -(Wisconsin) who won it, were all undefeated in the regular season and all were excellent. "All in all, I was very satisfied and very proud of the performance su UT CLIFF KEEN ... proud of team that our boys gave in the meet. Who'd have thought at the begin- ning of the season that with five sophomores among our eight wrestlers we'd finish second in the Big Ten, five points out of first? Every member of our team gave it his all, his very best effort. We had the kind of team where each man could pick up everybody on any given day. I was tremendously proud of our boys and of their performance." He neglected to mention the im- portance of a great coach. 4 Featuring + THE ARBORS o THE FRIARS * THE CUYAHOGA WAITERS OF CORN ELL * THE DQ'S OF AM H E RST * THE QU I NTONES FROM WAYN E STATE and introducing THE TRINIDADS OF TRINITY COLLEGE who recently appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show IN A CONCERT OF THE NATION'S GREATEST COLLEGIATE VOCAL GROUPS kTURDAY, MARCH17 easier 3-minute way for men: FITCH .
