_THE MICHIGAN DAILY ihigan Track Strength Lies Sprints, Both Hurdle Events Upper Weight Classes Hold Ke To Wolverine Wrestling Hopes S/ (This is the second in a three-part series analyzing Michigan's chances in the upcoming Big Ten wrestling meet.) By TOM WEBBER Michigan doesn't figure to score many points in the four lowest weight divisions, but the upper six-that's where the strength lies. And these are the weight classes that are giving coach Cliff Keen a headache this week. He has, in Jim Blaker, Don Corriere, Dennis Fitzgerald, Jack Barden, and Karl Fink, five wrestlers who could go all the way. It remains to Keen to choose the weights in which they stand the best chance of winning. To.Outfox Collins The Wolverine coach needs all the points he can get in the upper' weights, and this means outfox- ing Michigan State mentor Fend- ley Collins. His main concern here is with Barden and Fink. The best weight for both of them is 191, but to put them both -Daily-James Warneka UP IN THE AIR-Michigan's three divers, Bob Webster (left), Pete Cox (center), and Ron Jaco (right) watch as Ohio State's Lou Vitueci completes a back dive. The Michigan trio and Vitucci and his OSU teammates will battle for top diving honors in this weekend's Big Ten Meet in Columbus. BUT 'M' STRONG IN DIVING: Hoosier Specialists To Try for Sweep in that class would deprive Michi- gan of some points and give Michi- gan State an excellent chance to' score points at heavyweight. "I'd like to wrestle Fink at 191, but I don't think Barden can score as many points at heavy- weight as he could at 191,' Keen said. "I guess I'll move Fink up to heavyweight and hope that both of them' can go all the way," he added. Weber a Problem Of course there is one problem with wrestling Fink at heavy- weight, namely, Northwestern's Rory Weber. Fink has defeated Weber once by a 2-1 score, but there is no assurance that he can do it again. Not to mention the fact that Keen has fears that Michigan State's Mike Senzig might just be .able to slip into the 191-lb cham- pionship. Curtis Ineligible And what about Guy Curtis, Michigan's unofficial champ at 191-lbs last year, who lost his eligibility for this semester? "That really hurt. I could have put Bar- den and him at heavyweight 'and had no worries," Keen noted. As of now Keen is pretty sure that he will keep Corriere at 167- lbs and Fitzgerald at 177-lbs. Both of them could move down a weight, but that would leave a hole at 177-lbs. And this way, if Purdue's Bob Marshall wrestles at 157-lbs, Michigan State will be shut out there. Corriere and Fitzgerald are both former conference titilists and must rate the nod at their re- spective weights this year. Another Champ In Blaker, Keen has another re- turning Big Ten champ. Blaker can go at either 147-lbs, or 157- Ibs, but Keen has indicated that he will probably go at the lower weight. That leaves Keen only one more wrestler and one open weight. On this decision he has set two alter- natives. "I'll either put john Hollen- beck at 157-lbs, or I'll put Ted Ludwig in at heavyweight along with Fink and hope he can pick up some points," he proposed. All of this of course depends on which one Keen thinks can get the most points. Such decisions as these are what give Big Ten coaches gray hairs around this time every year. 'M' leer Third In Point Race By The Associated Press MINNEAPOLIS - North Da- kota's Bill Colpitts and Denver's Jerry Walker are tied for the scoring lead in the Western Col- legiate Hockey Association. But Colpitts has the tougher hurdle as the teams head into the final weekend of league actior Colpitts has 17 goals and 20 assists; Walker has 26 goals and 11 assists, giving each 37 points. Gordon (Red) Berenson of Michi- gan' is in third place with 34 points on 15 goals and 19 assists.

PRO SPORTS ACTION: Chamberlain Breaks NBA Record ;i However, swimming Legacki in the butterfly would mean taking him off a relay team since one man can enter no more than three events. Furthermore, the 100-yd. butterfly finals are directly before the 100-yd. freestyle finals, in which Legacki is the defending champ. It is doubtful that Legacki could go at top speed twice within so short a period of time, Indiana could take first and second in both backstroke races. Frank McKinney is easily the class of the field and Dick Beaver is almost a full second ahead of any- one else in the 200. Jeff Mattson of Michigan State and Tom Mur- ray and L. B. Schaeffer of Ohio State all have recorded better times than Alex Gaxiola and Fred Wolf of Michigan. Chet Jastremski and .John Roethke of Indiana seem to be the best bets for the 200-yd. individual medley. Challenging for Michigan will' be Wolf who won the race in the 1960 championships at Ann Arbor. Almost certain to tumble is the Big Ten mark of 2:06.5 held by former Wolverine captain Tony Tashnick. Jastremski has done 2:04.0, Roethke 2:04.1, and Wolf, 2:05.9. Position Solid In the breaststroke, Michigan's position seems solid, although In- diana cannot be overlooked. Ron Clark is riding on the crest of two record-breaking performances and must be rated a clear-cut favorite over the Hoosier twosome of Jas- tremski and Ken Nakasone in the 200-yd. event. Last week Clark set a new Amer- ican record of 2:31.1 for the 220 and the week before he broke his own NCAA mark for the 200 with a 2:15.9. In the 100, the Wolverines will take the wraps off sophomore Dick Nelson, who holds the American record for 100 yards. Diving Strong How many points Michigan ac- cumulates in the two diving events will depend mainly on how well Bob Webster, Ron Jaco, and Pete Cox do against Tom Gompf, Juan Botella, and Lou Vitucci of Ohio State and John Vogel of Purdue. The Buckeyes will have the advan- tage of performing in their own pool. The important thing is that In- 41ana does not have a diver who can hope to break into, the top five or six in each event. These points gained by Michigan could very well mean.the difference in what figures to be a very closely contested meet. The best Michigan can hope for in the medley and freestyle relays is two seconds. Indiana should have no trouble winning the 400- yd. medley relay and the Wolver- ines will most likely fight it out with Michigan State for the run- nerup spot. Coach Gus Stager will probably go with Gaxiola, backstroke, Nel- son, breaststroke, Gillanders, but- terfly, and Legacki, freestyle. A possibility would be moving Le- gacki to the butterfly leg and using Dave Heizer or John McGuire as anchorman. Michigan State appears strong- est in the 400-yd. freestyle relay. Michigan will be without the serv- ices of Legacki if he competes in either the medley relay or 100-yd. butterfly. G Masterson, Denver 12 Sullivan, Mich. Tech. 16 Norman, Minnesota 17 Angotti, Mich.
