Bob Cantrell, last year's cap- tain, has graduated and finding an adequate replacement is one of Strack's major chores this season. Cantrell was the team leader and playmaker, and, although 5'10" and 165 pounds, Strack is quick to recognize the absence of a sparkplug after Tuesday's Ball State opener. Thompson to Start Strack considered the likes of 6'4" senior George Pomey, 6'4" junior John Clawson, 5'11" senior Tom Ludwig, and 6' junior John Thompson before deciding that the latter was to get the first shot at the starting slot.

EXPECT ROBIE TO STAR: l t 1 4 a r E s s r 3 Stager Rests Swimming Hopes HACK TISON I, ii than Wolverine-leader Buntin. With Tison leading the way, Bu- bas has predicted his Blue Devils will rise to the top of the bas- ketball ranks. But with the exhi- bition schedule lined "with weak teams; Michigan will provide one of the few stern tests until the Atlantic Coast tournament 'early in March-and if they win the tourney again-the NCAA later the same month. By JIM LaSOVAGE "They're the key to the whole ueam," said swimming coach Au- gustus P. (Gus) Stager of his cur- rent flock of sophomores. "If they don't come through we won't have a thing." Stager, the 1960 U. S. Olympic coach, may have been underrat- ing his upperclassmen somewhat, but he has good reason to praise the newcomers. Among them are names which will likely be repeated many times over when the season begins. Probably the biggest name is Carl Robie. Robie took a silver medal home 'from Tokyo where he fin- ished second in the 1964 Olym- pics in his specialty, the 200-me- ter butterfly. In the Pan American games, Robie won the butterfly event beating' all 'challengers in the Western Hemisphere. Bright Prospects Bill Groft is another bright prospect. In last year's varsity- freshman meet he gathered in a first and a second in the 50- and 100-yard freestyle events, respec-, tively. Another freestyle expert, Howard Brundage, finished third in the 200-yard race and was on the winning 400-yard freestyle re- lay team as was Groft. Tom Williams and Paul Scheer- er are breaststrokers who, accord- ing to Stager, "are making good progress." Against the varsity last year Scheerer and Williams fin- ished first and third in the 200- yard breaststroke. An all-around swimmer whom Stager has high hopes for is John Vry. Vry swam to a victory against his upperclass teammates last year in the 200-yard individual medley. Strengthening the backstroke department will be Russ Kingery, who was barely touched out in last season's varsity - freshman duel. He also swam on the win- ning medley relay team along with Scheerer, Robie, and Bill Keswick. Stager is also expecting big things from Tom Schwarten, a strong freestyler. Schwarten swam on the relay team with Brundage, Keswick, and Groft. But to give all the credit to the sophs would be a gross injustice to the varsity's returning letter- men. Captain Ed Bartsch, a sen- ior, has been a consistent winner for the Wolverines. He placed first in the backstroke event in the Pan Am games, second in both the 100- and 200-yard backstrokes in the Big Ten championships, and third and fifth in the same two events in the NCAA finals last March. Geoff D'Atri proved his worth as a sophomore last year. In the Big Ten meet, he finished fourth in the 400-yard individual medley. He pulled in a lot of dual meet points for the tankers, and Stager is hoping for a better season this year. Distance Man One of the most valuable re- turning lettermen is junior Bill Farley. Proving his value as one of the top distance swimmers in the nation, Farley won two firsts in the Big Tens (500- and 1650- yard freestyle races) and took a third in the 200-yard variation. In the 1650-yard event in the NCAA finals, Farley finished sec- ond to Southern Cal's Roy Saari. Racing in the freestyle sprints will be Bob Hoag, a junior who was ineligible last year. "With him," Stager says, "we could have height would make taller a squad which already averages close to 6-5.
