Captain Leads Utilizing some of the old finesse that made him Big Ten rebound tumbling champion Osterland reg- istered a winning 91 point total to his nearest opponent's 84.5. With a steady sure routine and some help from his=opponents, who faltered repeatedly, the Michigan captain came home a winner in tumbling with an 82.5 total. Despite the victory things look- ed bad for the Wolverines from the beginning as the determined Hawkeyes swept the first, three places in the free exercise with the help of a costly slip by Michigan ace Gil Larose.

Fenner is one of Coach Newt Loken's key performers who'll play a big part in Michigan's remaining meets. Coach Loken commented, "I was especially pleased with the performance of Lascari who con- tinued to score 93 plus on the high bar and remain one of the na- tion's best in that event." "Since the meet was right be- fore the exam period many of the boys had missed some prac- tices to study and it showed in some below average performances which were to be expected," Lok- en added. Depth Important Depth and talent proved too much for Minnesota in Michigan's 62-47 dunking of the Gophers. The victory kept Minnesota deep in the second division in the con- ference racer An important first took place in the contest as Ralph Bromund, muscular senior from Alpena, gained his first victory at Michi- gan on the still rings with an 88 point total that left his opponents behind. "Ralph's victory was a very pleasant surprise. He always works very hard, but up until this meet a first place had eluded him. He deserved the victory and final- ly got it," stated Coach 'Loken. Behind Captain Osterland's pace setting 91%/2, Lew Hyman and Gil Larose finished second and third to give the winners a sweep. An- other high scoring event for the Wolverines was the side horse where Lew Fenner won with a 91 point total and Paul Levy earned second behind his teammate. Jim Hynds and Arno Lascari dominated the high bar as in the Iowa meet. Hynds won top honors with a 92 while Lascari was a few notches behind in second place. With another fine routine Las- cari repeated his 93/2 point per- formance of the Iowa meet to take another first and keep his team's victory string alive. Bromund's victory on the still rings and Lew Hyman's win in the tumbling with a 91 gave the Wolverines a first in every event as they waltzed to victory over the lowly Gophers. delicious Hamburgers...15c Hot Tasty French Fries...10c Triple Thick Shakes... 20c 2000 W.
