"The Big Guy is going good for Colorado College and Toronto, us," said Renfrew, referring to his captain Red Berenson. "He did a great job for us out East." The ten goals Berenson picked up in the Troy tournament matched a tourney record, no small feat for just three games. His line, witi sophomores Ron Coristine and Gordon Wilkie hold- ing down the other wing and cen- ter slots, respectively, has scored in every Michigan game. To counter this threat Michigan Tech will throw three balanced lines on the ice led by captain Jerry Sullivan, fiery Louis Angotti, and such familiar names as John Ivanitz and Mike Draper. In the eight games since the Wolverines bumped them twice the Huskies have averaged better than seven goals a game while yielding just over three. Something has got to give!' PREVIEW OF BIG TEN MEET: Gymnasts Tackle Tough Illini New Trends in Collegiate Hairstyling are here!! * 1 tonsorial artists 0 No waiting Try The Dascola Barbers near Michigan Theatre By JAN WINKELMAN The Michigan gymnastics team meets its first real test tomorrow when it travels to Champaign to take on the perennially tough Ii- lini. In all likelihood tomorrow's con- test will be a preview-of the Big Ten championship meet. Michigan and Illinois finished one-two last year and have both retained their nucleus of top performers. Michigan outpointed Illinois in the conference meet, 1472-122. Previously, Michigan had never won a Big Ten gym crown. "This wil be our toughest duel meet of the year," comments Coach Newt Loken. "It is too bad that we have to face Illinois so early in the season." Loken will accompany the team in spite of his recent automobile accident. Tomorrow's clash will be the Wolverines' first dual meet of the season., They finished third in the Midwest Open December 1 and 2 in Chicago. Count on Hadley On sidehorse Illinois has Bill Lawlor and Mike Aufrecht, who were one-two in that event in last year's conference meet. The two are regarded as the best sidehorse- men in the Big Ten. Aufrecht is also a topnotch competitor in free exercise. John Salter on high bars will help Hadley for the Illini in his event. Salter also placed high in the conference meet last year. He and Hadley will be strong rivals against Michigan's trio of en- trants, Gill Larose, Jim Hynds and Bob Harris. 'Holmes is Great' "Hal Homes of Illinois is a great tumbler," says Loken. Last year Holmes defeated present Michigan captain Tom Osterland in the con- ference meet with a spectacular 962 total to Osterland's 91 /2. Michigan's forte will be balance. Hynds, LaRose and sophomoi e Arno Lascari will give Hadley stiff competition in all-around. Oster- land and sophomore Lew Hyman are expected to gain points in tumbling and Trampoline, Faced with the difficult task of upsetting Aufrecht and Lawler are Lew Fen- ner, sophomore Paul Levy and Harris. Also making the trip to Cham- paign .for the Wolverines are Barry Spicer, John Buss, Phil Bolton and Ralph Bromund. R, Five Cage Teams To Fight For Second Behind Bucks I i By JERRY KALISH Tomorrow the scramble in the Big Ten basketball race will begin -for second place, that is. Unbeaten Ohio State is virtually assured of winning its third straight crown with the return of All-American Jerry Lucas and veterans Mel Nowell and John Havlicek.4 The Buckeyes were undefeated in the Big Ten last year and lost only one game the year before. So far this season the Bucks have ten victories including the Los Angeles Classic Championship. Any threats to the defending conference champs should come from Iowa, Purdue, Illinois, Wis- consin or Indiana, which should be battling it out for first divisio a positions. Iowa Still Tough, Iowa, which tied for second place with Purdue last year, should be right in the middle of the fight. High-scoring center Don Nelson and sophomore sharpshooter Andy Hankin are the keys to the of- fense. Purdue, of course, must be con- sidered if "only because of center Terry Dischinger, leading scorer in the Big Ten for the past two seasons. But the Boilermakers have added two sophomores with considerable poise-Phil Dawkins, a high, school teammate of Michi- gan's Bob Cantrell, and Mel Gar- land. Wisconsin should rebound from its 4-10 record of last year. Ron Jackson has averaged 23 points in pre - conference competition in which the Badgers unexpectedly reached the finals of the Holiday Tourney in New York. Downey Key Illinois forward Dave Downey, the highest soph scorer in the school's history last year, will con- tinue to bear the brunt of the scoring load with help from Bill Burwell and Jerry Colangelo. Indiana's Jimmy Rayl is finally living up to expectations after a dismal sophomore season, now averaiing 24 points a game. Jerry Bass is paired with him -in the backcourt, while Tom Bolyard is the only bright spot in the of- fensively weak front line. Big Ten Standings for CASH ,anytime FOLLETT'S State St. at North U.
