Stager Hopes Tankers Can Beat India NOT OVER YET: Strack Optimistic; Buskeyes Eye Title Swim Mentor Foresees Tight Wolverine Win Predicts Top Times For 'M' Splashers By DAVE GOOD A week of sensational values we OV6 . 'I By JERRY KALISH The Big Ten cage season is over for nine teams, including Michigan, but for conference champion Ohio State, there is yet the NCAA tournament. The Wolverines finished eighth in the league with a 5-9 record and 7-17 overall for Michigan's best finish in four years. Coach Dave Strack, who just completed his. second year as head coach, can look ahead to the 1962-1963 sea- son optimisticaly. Four in Double Figures Four returning regulars all averaged in double figures and figure to play a large part in Strack plans for the future. Cap- taining the Wolverines will be 6'7" forward Tom Cole, leading scorer with a 15 point average and top rebounder with 223 grabs. Supporting Cole in the front court will be John Oosterbaan, second in scoring with a 14.7, and center John Harris. Harris, only 6'S", trailed Cole in the rebound- ing department with 209, while Bob Cantrell is the fourth return- ing starter. Strack will have the not un- pleasant problem of trying to make use of the talented freshman team, which is considered to be the best in the history of Michi- gan by many observers. Buntin Counted On Likely to see much action next year will be 6'7" Bill Buntin from Detroit and former Al-Stater Larry Tregoning, a 6'4" guard from Ferndale. It is conceivable for Michigan to have a front line averaging 6'6" if Strack moves Harris to forward alongside Cole, and plays Buntin at the pivot. But Oosterbaan who shot 46 per cent is too good to sit on the bench. Strack perhaps had' this in mind when he had Ooster- baan playing guard in the late stages of the Purdue game to get- more shooting power. Oosterbaan responded hitting on 7 of 12 fxom the floor. Immediate Problems And while Strack's thoughts are of the future, Ohio State coach Fred Taylor has some more im- mediate problems - namely, the NCAA tournament. Tonight the Buckeyes clash with Western Ken- tucky following the Kentucky- Butler game.' Ohio State is trying to regain the crown that they held two years ago. Cincinnati surprised quite a few people last year when they downed the Bucks 70-65 in over- time, but there are a lot of "ifs" involved for the two teams to meet in this year's finals.. Earlier in the season when the Wolverines hosted Ohio State Taylor remarked that it was hard- er to win a conference title than a national title because it was easier to get the players up for a single elimination tournament. He now has another chance to prove his point. Final Statistics -Daily-Bruce Taylor JUMPING JACO-Michigan diver Ron Jaco is being counted on by swimming Coach Gus Stager to slam tie three-meter high- diving against Indiana tomorrow afternoon along with teammate Pete Cox.

The Saturday Evening MARCH 17 ISSUE NOW ON SALE* By DAVE GOOD Coach Don Canham's trackmen will be hard-pressed tonight in the Cleveland Knights of .Columbus Meet to"keep up the fast pace they set last weekend in the Chicago Daily News Relays and Milwaukee Journal Games. However, hurdler Bennie Mc- Rae, who finished second twice to ex-Eastern Michigan star Hayes Jones, will get a break tonight. Jones won't be entered in the 50-yd. highs, so McRae and Vil- lanova's Leon Pras are the favor- ites to lead the field. McRae, who finished second in the Big Ten meet to Wisconsin's. Larry Howard in both hurdle races, broke Pete Stanger's varsity mark of :07.5 in the 60-yd. highs Friday. Jones, who hasn't lost an indoor race in years, broke the American record of :06.9, while McRae was second in :07.2. Both Tie Records The next night McRae tied Van Bruner's varsity record of :06.1 in the 50-yd. higls. Jones had to be satisfied to tie his own American record of :05.9. Ergas Leps, Charlie Aquino, Jim Neahusan and Jay Sampson won their heat of the two-mile Friday in 7:44.8 and then came back the next night to win the race in 7:39.0. Leps had a split of 1:53.7 Friday, and Aquino timed 1:52.7 Saturday on the fastest leg. They'll get tough competition .1 STORE HOURS: Mon. and Fri. 8:30-Other Days 'til 5:30 I - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - -I II MEN'S GTr\ T D'TT QU Cole Oosterbaan Harris Cantrell Hall Herner Higgs Schoenherr Eveland Brown Greenwald Andrews Jackson Ludwig Withrow Mich .Tot.

The mile relay team of Mac Hunter, John Davis, Carter Reese and Leps will run against Notre Dame, Pittsburgh, Yale, Villanova and Western Michigan in an at- tempt to better last Saturday's time of 3:21.0 when they placed second in their section thanks to an anchor leg of :49.1 by Leps. Big Assignment Pole vaulters Rod Denhart and Steve Overton, who cleared 14'4" and 14'0", respectively, in the Big Ten meet, will have their hands full against Harry Wadsworth, Rolando Cruz and Mel Schwartz, all 15-footers., Sprinter Tom Robinson, who graduated at the end of last semester, will try to beat Villan- ova's Frank Budd and Paul Dray- ton and Purdue's Nate Adams in the 50-yd. dash. Robinson came through with a first and a second in the two dashes last week, winning the 50 in :05.3 Friday and placing second to Brooks Johnson of the Chicago Track Club Saturday. Bill Smith, Wisconsin's Big Ten champ was third. Board jumper Dave Raimey, who upset Olympic champion Ralph Boston last Friday by winning with a leap of 24'3", won't be going on this trip. Finish Next Week The Knights of Columbus Meet is the last indoor meet on the winter circuit for most of the big- name performers, but the Wolver- ines will still have the Livingston Relays at Denison in Granville, Ohio, tomorrow and the Western Michigan Open next weekend at Kalamazoo. The only ones entered for Mich- igan in the Denison Meet are Leps, Aquino, Sampson and Ted Kelly in the two-mile relay and Overton and Denhart in the pole vault. Last year Overton won the event at 13'9", his best jump up to that point. People who see Gus Stager walk- ing around with a wild expression on his -face this week might think Michigan's swimming coach is losing his marbles. Most coaches take the prospect of having to meet Indiana in stride and mark it off as a loss before the action starts. The Hoosiers, Big Ten champs for the last two. years running, have or at least seem to have some kind of record-holder or Olympian or what-not in every event. Stager not only is looking for- ward to Saturday's home meet with enthusiasm but even thinks that Michigan can beat Indiana- repeat, BEAT Indiana. And all this is in spite of the facts that the Hoosiers rolled up a 213%- 146 margin over the second-place Wolverines in the Big Ten meet two weeks ago and that the Hoosiers have a 21-meet winning streak dating back to Feb. 21, 1959, when Ohio State beat them, 54-51. One-Point Win "I just figured out we're going to beat them, 53-52," exclaimed Stager with a weird gleam in his eye,"--if we're in the meet at all. Probably the score will.go zooming the other way, but write this out on paper." Then the usually pessimistic Stager proceeded to go through Michigan's chances in every event, He gave his team credit for a one-two finish in the 50-yd. free- style (Jim Kerr and Dennis Flo- den), and diving (Ron Jaco and Pete Cox), a first-"a reasonable first," he called it-in the 220-yd. freestyle (Bill Barnton), and bin- go, Michigan jumped off to a 22- 14 lead. "Now, we're going to have to do some guessing," he conceded. Or maybe he meant "hoping." Faster than the mind can follow, Michigan pulls out a first and third in the 100-yd. freestyle (Kerr and Floden or Darnton), first in the 4,00-yd. freestyle relay (Kerr, Floden, Darnton, and Frank Berry), second and third in the 440-yd. freestyle (Darnton and Roy Burry, John Dumont or Waren Uhler), second and third in the 200-yd. breaststroke (Jon Baker and Dick Nelson or Geza Bodolay), second in the 200-yd. backstroke (Mike Reissing or Fred Wolf) and second in the 200-yd. butterfly ,(Jeff Moore or Enn Mannard). Presto, Michigan has a 54-51 victory, even conceeding. Indiana everything else, yr J7Llv 1fl. U 0JI1 NEED A RIDE FOR SPRING VACATION? See the TRAVEL FILE in front of MUG. Dear Rushee: Out of Magic Hat' N This letter is being sent to those of you who rushed this fall, but did not pledge, in order to inform you of the nature of the open rushing period and exactly what it entails., Open rush here at Michigan is designed to give both the fraternities and rushees pn opportunity to become better acquainted between the formal rush periods. While bids may be extended and accepted during this time, many rushees use this period to familiarize themselves with more fraternities and aspects of fraternity life which are not always apparent during formal rush. Open rush began the Monday following the close of the formal rushing period, in this case, March 12, and continues for the remainder of the semester. During this time it is perfectly legal and proper to attend any fraternity activity to whicch you may be invited; this includes lunches, dinners, parties, dances, and any other activity in which the fraternity may be involved. It should be noted, however, that an invitation from the fraternity is necessary in order for you to attend any such activity. It is rot necessary for you to register with the I FC in order to participate in the program. It is our intention to supply the Michigan fraternities with the names of those men desiring to participate in open rush. This will provide them with the opportunity of meeting persons whom they might otherwise fail to contact. If you would be interested in being included with this. group, please contact me atthe following address: Frank Lude 1510 Student Activities Building Ann Arbor, Michigan Include in yqur note, your name, address, phone, year, and hometown. This is not to imply that you must register with the IFC in order to participate in open rush nor does it imply that you will be invited to every fraternity participating in open rush. It is quite probable, however, that you will be contacted by some of the fraternities in regard to attending certain of their activities during the open rushing period: We here at the Interfraternity Council strongly encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity It is an accepted fact that the more contacts you have with the fraternrity system, the more certain'you can be that, if and when you decide to pledge, the choice you make will be a wise one and willlead to a more rewarding college experience. NHLF Boston 4, Detroit 0 Montreal 6, Chicago 5 A look of amazement: 54-51? "See, we even did better that time," grinned Stager fiercely. Then obviously Stager is not anticipating any let-down from the Big Ten meet when nearly all his swimmers cswam their best times and still finished a distant second? ... Their best times up to that point," Stager put in quickly. "And besides, time trials we held Morday indicate we're not losing any of our tempo at all," he explained.' They'd better not.
