If the Wolverines are success- ful, they'll cop their third straight conference title and merit a berth in the NCAA championships to be held in Laramie, Wyo., on March 25-27. The mat action will get under way .at 2 p.m. in the IM Building Friday, followed by a session at 7:30 and the finals at 1:30 on Saturday. The meet, which is televised on Channel 50 and the ABC regional network, will feature three 1964 conference champions and two 1963 victors. Wolverine 157-pound Lee Deit- rick was last year's 147-pound champion, but this season will challenge defending 157-pound title holder, Lee Gross of Minne- sota. Clay Beattie of Illinois, who beat Deitrick in the Midlands Tournament and tied him in a dual meet, is another strong contender. Isel Returns Indiana's Dick Isel returns to defend the 177-pound crown. Northwestern's Don Evans, who won the title in 1963, is a ques- tionable entrant being hampered by the knee injury that sidelined him all last season. Evans whipped Michigan's Chris Stowell, 4-1, ear- lier this season. Stowell and Michigan State's Emerson Boles are considered by Keen to have the best chance to dethrone Isel. Stowell and Boles tied, 2-2, last week. Michigan captain Rick Bay, 1963 157-pound conference champion, is wrestling at 167. Bay will re- ceive his toughest competition from Northwestern's Stu Marshall, who has battled his adversary to two draws the past two seasons. Elmer Deale of Wisconsin is ex- pected to be a top contender at either 167 or 157. He beat Gross, 8-0, but was edged by Bay, 4-3. Johannesen at 137 The weight class that Keen calls H.1 I .S.

Michigan's Bill Johan- nesen is the best way to explain the situation as he has had draws ' with three opponents and edged a fourth by one point. Illinois' Fred Aprati, Northwestern's Pete Beevers and Iowa's Bob Rausen- berger have fought 1-1 draws with the Wolverine. Spartan Joe Ganz was a 2-1 victim of his last week. Undefeated Bob Fehrs could provide Michigan with the neces- sary opening punch in the 123- pound event. He has not faced Purdue's Ralph Trail, last year's conference runner-up to graduat- ed Wolverine Ralph Bahna. Fehrs, however, has trounced Mike Beery of Ohio State, 7-3, and the scrappy Buckeye was third in the league meet last year. Spartan Behm The terror of the 130-pound class is Spartan sophomore Don Behm, whose 11-0 record includes a 6-3 triumph over Doug Horning of Michigan. Besides Horning, Behm will have to face the chal- lenges of Hoosier Bob Campbell, last year's runner-up and a 2-0 Horning victim this s e a s o n. "Campbell is very tough if he isI healthy," Keen added. In addition to Horning and Campbell, Bill Founds of Ohio State and Larry Lloyd of Minne- sota are Behm's strongest com- petition.

MICHIGAN'S LEE DEITRICK holds the advantage over an op- ponent attempting an escape in the Northwestern meet this year. Deitrick was last year's Big Ten champion at 147 pounds and is one of the top challengers for the 157-pound Big Ten title. By BUD WILKINSON The Michigan tennis team opens the season with their annual in- vasion of the South next week. The Wolverines face Mississippi State on Monday and go on to play Miami on Thursday and Fri- day before returning to Ann Arbor. Both Mississippi State and Michigan ran up a 7-2 Big Ten dual meet record and an 8-4 over- all record last year.

Purdue's Bob Hopp and In- diana's Dick Conaway are other promising heavyweights. Spaly, 1964 runner-up to graduated Badger, Roger Pillath, defeated Conaway, 4-3.

Even if Jenkins is ready, he might not represent Michigan as sophomore Jim Kamman couvinc- ingly stopped previously-undefeat- ed Dick Cook of Michigan State, 9-4, last week. Keen did not wish to make any predictions about the meet's out- come but mentioned Minnesota and Michigan State as the Wol- verines' toughest foes. "Mississippi State has two Aus- tralians and a boy from Ecuador who are all very good," explained Murphy yesterday. Won Four Miami has beaten the Wolver- ines four times in the past two years and is a perennial tennis power. Last year the Hurricanes defeated Michigan 7-2 and 6-3. Miami's second victory over the Wolverines extended its dual meet victory string to 132. The string was broken the same week by a Princeton team which had lost to Michigan. Traveling to Florida for Mich- igan will be junior Karl Hedrick, Brian Flood, George Russell, Bo Barker, Jim Swift, and Jerry Stewart. Coach Murphy has not yet decided on what position each man will play. Also on this year's squad are Hal Lowe, Bill Dixon, and John Fraser. The only loss to graduation last year was captain and number one singles player Harry Fauquier. This is the second straight year that only the number one singles player hastbeenulost to thesteam. Graduating Ray Senkowski was the only loss that had to be filled on last year's squad. One Soph The only sophomore on this year's team is Stewart, and ac- cording to Murphy, is a very promising player from Daytona Beach, Fla. Flood, Lowe, Fraser, and Rus- sell are all seniors and all except Russell have two years of varsity experience behind them. Flood won the third singles title in last year's Big Ten tournament. Hedrick, Swift and Dixon all reached the finalsaof the tourney, but lost their final matches. _ ........_a _.. .r ..... x ... , V_.., ....r. ....a..., .

McCracken, 57, announced Tues- day night he was stepping out at 0the end of the currentseason, his 24th with the Hoosiers. Indiana's head football coach, Phil Dickens, resigned in Decem- ber and was succeeded in Janu- ary by John Pont, former head coach at Yale. No action was taken on a suc- cessor for McCracken, but Lou Watson, his assistant since 1958, appeared to have the inside track. McCracken said he was not re- signing because of ill health or pressure but wanted to get out of coaching before his health Decame affected. He told a full professorship In the school of health, physical edu- cation and recreation and said he will remain with the university. McCracken's record for 24 sea- sons at Indiana, with two games to go, is 362 victories and 174 de- feats. His Hoosier teams have a 208-116 record in the Big Ten and ir hold a winning margin over each of the other schools. They have won three conference champion- ships and tied for another. He is the only Big Ten coach with two NCAA championships, won in 1940 and 1953. Referring to selection of a sue- cessor, McCracken said: "My per- sonal choice would be my assist- ant, Lou Watson. I think he's a fine coach and would do a good job for Indiana." The Hoosiers started this sea- son with nine straight pre-confer- ence victories but lost their Big Ten opener to Illinois and now stand 17-5 for the season and 7-5 -.Iin the Big Ten. 0 1 .w A GUARANTEE with you!
