His v By JIM LaSOVAGE The Purdue Boilermakers will have to do a lot of hard swimming this afternoon if they are to live up to their spoiler role against Michigan's highly rated tankers. In , fact, Coach Gus Stager is confident enough of a victory that he, in a generous move toward Purdue, is leaving many of his big guns home to rest. Among these are Captain Ed Bartsch, Carl Robie, Bill Croft, Paul Scheerer, Bill Farley and Bob Hoag. Greg Shuff and Bruce Brown will also remain in Ann Arbor, leaving the diving chores to Tom Ewing and Bob Walmsley. Four Lettermen The 19-man Purdue squad con- sists of 11 sophomores and only four returning lettermen. Last year the Boilermakers managed only a ninth place finish in the Big Ten meet under Coach Rich- ard O. (Pappy) Papenguth, a Michigan grad. Harry Wickens is Purdue's mainstay. In last season's dual meet against Michigan he took the only individual Purdue first, in the 200-yard freestyle, and was on the winning 400-yard freestyle coach is taking every precaution relay team. Michigan took the with State's strong team waiting other nine firsts in the meet. in the wings. I Not Only Generosityt Stager has more reason for leav- ing swimmers home than just to keep the score down. He also is concerned about the health of the team. In the past week, several swimmers have had slight colds or sore throats, and Stager wants everyone to be in top physical' condition and health for the Michigan State meet next Satur- day. Traveling is an easy way to pick up a slight illness, and the The Wolverines will not, how- ever, be entering Lafayette empty- handed. Sophomores Tom Wil- liams, Tom Schwarten, Russ Kin- gery, H o w i e Brundage, Tom O'Malley and John Vry enforced by upperclassmen Bill Spann, Bob Tanner, Rich Walls, Rees Orland and Lanny Reppert will carry the main burden for the tankers, and unless Purdue introduces a strong soph team, something like last year's 77-28 drowning is possible. fE e 2~fIAN New Styles First At Wild's Don't miss Our Annual January Sack S ale If you desire fine traditional styling and workmanship-all wool-in a choice of colors and with plain fronts . . . we offer our usual: J R f r f : The Wildcats field a starting five sporting three first-year men and anchored by junior Jim Pitts at center and senior captain Don Jackson at forward. In addition, Northwestern also has a coach in his sophomore year at the school. Larry Glass, who at 29 is the youngest basketball coach in the Big Ten, made an inauspicious debut last season when his team compiled an un- inspired 8-13 record. Michigan Coach Dave Strack is likely to go with his "big team" today, in light of last week's win over Illinois. George Pomey, re- placing John Thompson at guard, brings the Wolverines' height to an average of 6'6". Oliver Darden also will be a starting forward as a result of his performance in the Illini contest. Bill Buntin, Larry Tregoning and Cazzie Rus- sell will be at their usual positions. Soph Troika The Wildcat's three soph start- ers are Ron Kozlicki, Walt Tiberi and Jim Burns. This trio, coupled with the pair of lettermen, form the biggest Northwestern line-up in several seasons. Kozlicki, a 6'6" 205-pound for- ward is known for his rugged re- bounding. His 103 grabs put him second only to Pitts. The strong forward has' been averaging 8.6 points per game. Tiberi is the floor general of the Wildcats. At 6'1" and 175 pounds, he is quick and cool- height (6'4") and weight (190) make him an ideal candidate for a forward position, but the per- sonnel situation and his good out- side shot caused him to be moved to guard. He is extremely accurate within 20 feet where his jumper is hard to stop. Burns leads Northwestern in scoring with a 12.1raverage, and is third in rebounding with 79, impressive for a guard. Height and Muscle While last year's Wildcat team offered experience in seniors Marty Riessen, Rick Lopossa, and Rich Falk, a holder of three school scoring records, it could boast little height or muscle to throw around under the boards. As a newcomer, Pitts, at 6'8" and 210 pounds, was forced into a starting role where his height was needed. Surgery on his left knee had de- layed his debut as a sophomore for a year, and the weakness in his kneesrhas been his achilles heel during his entire career. Pitts developed into the 'Cats top rebounder of recent years, nabbing an average of 13 per game before knee injuries side- lined him for the last five con- tests. After his final performance as a sophomore, in which he scor- ed 23 points and picked off 17 rebounds, the concensus was that he had finally come into his own as a first-rate Big Ten center.

"But he's better than most cen- ters right now," says Glass. "And if he can keep plugging away and stay in action the rest of the season and next, Jim is going to1 be one of the great centers in college basketball, even on one leg." Named to the all-tournament team in the Far West Classic at Portland, Pitts' defensive play was compared by coast writers to that of Bill Russell. And North- western has established a new category in statistics for the big center. It is "Shots Blocked," and only Pitts' name with 29 in nine games is listed. Foul Trouble Rounding out the Northwestern starting five is Captain Don Jack- son at forward. The 6'5", 210- pound bruiser is an aggressive ball player who tends to pile up a cluster of personal fouls. His 58 in last year's Big Ten play was second only to Tom Van Arsdale's 59.

Knee surgery last year was a set- back to him also, and he is some- what hobbled at this point in the season. What To Do? But what does a team which finished sixth in the Big Ten last year, and enters the sell-out game with a ,4-7 record-0-1 in con- ference play-have to do to stop the second-ranked team in the nation? "You've got to run your. of- fense consistently," explains Glass, "and take only good shots-ones with a high percentage of going in. "We have to bother their first shots as much as possible and see how many times we can prevent the second, third and fourth shots they get so often." Board Duel Although the Wildcats' team field goal percentage is .370, they have outrebounded' their rivals 637 to 555, reminiscent of the Wolverines' totals. "They don't dazzle you with in- tricate plays," Glass said of Michi- gan's offense. "You know what's happening and what's going to happen." The Wildcats must count tre- mendously, on the kind of shoot- ing they got in the second half of last week's loss to Indiana (20 of 34). NCAA: Free Substitution? FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (- College football coaches crying for a return to free and unlimited substitution may get their wish next season. Or, failing that, they may bene- fit from a compromise rule ending the undesirable necessity for tak- ing deliberate penalties to sub- stitute offensive and defensive platoons. The Football Rules Committee of the National Collegiate Athletic Association debated for nearly eight hours yesterday, then threw out all proposals but two changes in the substitution rule. Substitution Choice One would permit a return to free substitution that prevailed prior to 1953. The other would al- low two substitutions at any time and switching of platoons when- ever the ball changed hands. Committee members met in secret and were cautioned against expressing personal opinions on the outside, but sentiment indi- cated that the second proposal would be more likely to succeed. This rule, Chairman Ivy Wil- liamson said, would eliminate the ,deliberate delays taken during the past season to get the defensive units into the game on fourth both coaches and fans. Better Coaching "It would require more coaching of offensive teams on punt cover- age, but it would give the coaches two platoon football. This will continue to be a terrific sport, even if the rules don't satisfy all the coaches." Under present rules, free sub- stitution is allowed between quar- ters and while the clock is stopped. A team in a punting situation was forced to waste a time out or take a five yard penalty for delay, off- sides or some other infraction to bring in its defensive unit.
