Box 241 Loken's Gymnasts Somersault to Ohio Stat By MIKE BLOCK I Michigan's gymnastics team in- vades Ohio State Saturday, and Coach Newt Loken promises to have a few surprises in store for the Buckeyes. For one, the Wolverines will very likely be double-somersault- ing all over the place. "The boys will be coming off the rings, the high bar, the parallel bars, and almost anything else you care to name, in double somersaults," Lo- ken revealed at practice. "It shows that they're strong enough on their routines to have a little something extra coming off the apparatus." Double Trouble Speaking of doubles, Loken also said that tumblers Phil Bolton and Mike Henderson have added double backflips to their routines. So far this season, Ohio State hasn't compiled a remarkable rec- ord, being defeated by Wisconsin and Michigan State in the Big Ten. Conversely, Michigan sports a 2-0 conference mark, winning over Iowa and Indiana. In their encounter last year, the Wolverines won easily, 6812-421.2 Tough on Tramp Although the Buckeye team as a whole isn't outstanding, there are several bright spots Pore- -4 -r- & "-51V a~wV. v 4 most among these is Dave Jarrett, an excellent Trampolinist who consistently scores in the 90's. Lo- ken termed him a "real competi- tor" and predicted that he'll give the Wolverine Tramp trio, Gary Erwin, Fred Sanders, and John Hamilton, a vigorous workout. Another veteran Buckeye is John Veon, a tumbler, who will see if he can counter that double back- flip. One man who won't be around for Ohio State this year is last year's captain Stu Greenberg. Greenberg was the largest thorn in the Wolverines' side, as he scor- ed in three events for the Bucks. ... Of All Trades If nothing else, Saturday's meet should be a battle of top-notch all- around performers, according to Loken. Ohio State's Tom Leibrock and Bob Webster are good, versa- tile performers, and Loken con- siders his own quartet of Gil La- rose, Arno Lascari, Jim Hynds, and Alex Frecska among the best. The team's showing at the Flint Open tournament on Jan. 26 bears him out on this, as Larose, Las- cari, and Hynds finished first, third, and fourth, respectively in the all-around. And none other than former Michigan captain Rich Montpetit was second. Loken singled out senior Hynds as one of his most dependable men. "Jim is always in full control of his entire body," he said. "He knows what to do and when to do it in order to get maximum performance in the time allotted for each event. And he's always trying to improve." Wings, Hawks Tie; Rangers Beat Montreal By The Associated Press CHICAGO-Lowell MacDonald's first National Hockey League goal pulled the Detroit Red Wings in- to a 3-3 tie with the first-place Chicago Black Hawks last night. The tying marker came with a minute and 9 seconds left in the final period. MacDonald got a loose puck near the corner of the Chicago net and scooped it past Chicago goalie Glenn Hall. Midway in the frame, Kenny Wharram had given the Hawks a 3-2 lead with his second goal of the night. * ,, * NEW YORK - Don McKenny, playing his first game for New York after being obtained from Boston, broke a 3-3 tie midway of the second period and assisted on the fifth goal as the Rangers whipped the Montreal Canadiens 6-3 in a wild National Hockey League game last night. Trailing 3-1, the Rangers staged a tremendous comeback in the second period, scoring three goals for a 4-3 lead. Goalie Gump Worsley of New York, hurt in a goalmouth colli- sion on the Canadiens' disputed third goal in the first period, took seven stitches to close a scalp cut and came back to hold Montreal scoreless the rest of the way. Boom Boom Geoffrion and Billy Hicke scored in a 20-second span and the Canadians went in front 2-1. Claude Provost converted a rebound to make it 3-1 as Ranger defenseman Jim Neilson and Hen- ri Richard of Montreal crashed into Worsley.

There was no immediate reac- tion from the league, itself in- volved in a $10.3 million suit against the National Football League, charging monopolistic practices. Harry Wismer, president and principal stockholder of the Ti- tans, listed the team's assets at $271,999 and liabilities at $1,341,- 000. However, he said the team had entered into profitable radio and television contracts which would result in substantial revenues if it were permitted to remain in oper- ation. Wismer, a leading sports an- nouncer for radio and television before he entered into the pur- chase of the club in the new pro- fessional league in 1959, has con- tended that he lost close to $1.34 million during his three years of the club's existence.

Illinois in its march'to the 1963 Big Ten basketball championship. The Illini, who are ranked fourth in the nation, proceeded down the path toward its eleventh confer- ence crown and first title since 1952 with its fifth consecutive vic- tory, without a defeat last Mon- day. The win was a resounding 104-101 battle against Indiana's Hoosiers. The Illinois victory was. spiced by three scoring splurges: Tal Brody with 22, Bob Starnes with 21 and Dave Downey with an even 20. In addition, the other two starters were in double figures as Bill Small and Bill Burwell netted 14 and 11 respectively. Widen Lead Monday's victory Jacked the un- defeated Illini a full game and a half ahead of Minnesota and Ohio State who were both idle Monday and share a four wins and two losses record. Indiana finds. itself dropped from second to fourth place following the disas- trous loss at Champaign-and also one which occurred despite 35 and 31 point outbursts by sharpshoot- ers Tom Bolyard and Jimmy Rayl respectively. Coach Dave 'Strack's up-and- down Wolverines are nestled in a fifth place tie with Iowa with a 3-3 conference mark. Michigan is trailed in the standings by the victors' victims, Michigan State, and their conquerers Wisconsin. Northwestern and Purdue trail the rest of the pack. The leaders in the standings. Harry Combes' Illini, are on top of the Big Ten in total offense with a mighty 92.6 point average, while the Minnesota Gophers are on top of the defensive race having allowed only 66.8 points per game. Michigan, led by Bill Buntin, the leading rebounder in the con- ference, boasts the most rebounds with 272, a 45.3 average per game. In the individual divisions of the Big Ten statistics, well-balanced Illinois claims three of the top 14 scorers, with Dave Downey, Bill Small and Tal Brody averag- ing 20, 18 and 15 respectively. Gary Bradds of Ohio State us- urped the top spot in the scoring race last weekend with a 38- point outburst against lowly Pur- due Saturday. Bradds' average soared to 32.0 points per game which puts him less than three points ahead of sharpshooting little guard for Indiana, Jimmy Rayl. Terry Kunze of Minnesota, who spiced his record with a 14 for 15 performance against Michigan three weeks ago tops the Big Ten with a .619 shooting percentage. Dave Downey of Illinois is the free throw percentage king with a respectable .929 percentage. JIMMIE RAYL ... Indiana star U U '1 I*
