lcers Host Gophers in Opening Series
AT MIDWEST OPEN:
Gymnasts Face Test in Opener
By P. C. DEAN
Michigan's Wolverines o p e n
their home hockey season against
WCHA and Big Ten opponent
Minnesota tonight and tomorrow
night at the Coliseum.
Although Michigan is the de-
fending NCAA champion, this sea-
son-has been singled out by Coach
Al Renfrew as a rebuilding year
since graduation and ineligibility
took a heavy toll from last year's
championship aggregation.
Minnesota, on the other hand,
has almost an entirely veteran
team returning, compared to the
Wolverines' lack of depth.
Falkman Returns
One of the stars of this veteran
Minnesota team is All-American
wingman Craig Falkman. Falk-
man was fourth in the WCHA
in scoring last year with 12 goals
and 12 assists. Falkman is a strong
aggressive skater and is co-cap-
tain.
The other co-captain for Min-
nesota, defenseman Larry Stor-

dahl, is also a-veteran performer
for the Gophers.
Goalie John Lothrop is also
back for Minnesota. Lothrop al-
lowed an average of 4.0 goals a
game against association compe-
tition while making 526 saves. His
save average was .892, good
enough for a fifth place among
conference goalies.
Other Gophers
Other experienced Gophers who
will probably see action this week-
end include: Doug Woog and
Lorne Grosso at centers; Dick
Haigh, Jerry Edman, Pat Fur-
long and Frank Zywieck, playing
defensemen; and Mike ,Alm, Dick
Bloom, Gary Hokanson, Bruce
Larson, Roy Nystrom, Mark Ry-
man and John Torrel at the for-
wards.
Last year Michigan won the
"Pipe of Peace" trophy, awarded
annually to the winner of the
Michigan-Minnesota hockey ser-
ies, as the Wolverines took three
of the four games played.
Captain Wilfred Martin will
center the first line for Mich-
igan. On his wings will be juniors
Alex Hood and Marty Read.

Hamilton was operated on last

Michigan's trampoline trio which

AA meet last year, as he finished
second. Frecska is an all-around
performer.
Erwin Is Champ
First and third trampoline spots
in the nationals went to Captain
Gary Erwin and Fred Sanders,

finish high in this weekend's meet.
Erwin has won the event in this
meet for three consecutive years
and is shooting for a grand slam.
merit watching. "This'll be a test
for the sophomores," says Loken.
"We'll be able to see what they
can do."
Fuller Twins
Among the large, promising
crop are Chip and Phil Fuller,
identical twins who specialize in
floor exercise and vaulting. Chris
VandenBroek and Gary Vander-
Voort will compete in the all-
around event. VanderVoort was
the Illinois all-around state high
school champion two years ago.
Rounding out the travel roster
are Ken Williams on the parallel
bars, side horse competitor Art
Baessler, and Cliff Chilver and
Dick Stone working on the still
rings.
"The meet," Loken says, "is
what we call a small NCAA." The
reason for this is the number of
teams competing. Every Big Ten
team with the possible exception
of Wisconsin will send teams to
the meet, as will almost every
college, large or small in the entire
Midwest.
According to Loken, the teama
which should provide the most
competition are Southern Illinois
(last year's winner), Iowa State,
Iowa, Michigan State and Illinois.
"It'll be a stimulating weekend
in terms of seeing what the othex
teams have," Loken comments.
The Wolverines have been Big
Ten champs in gymnastics for the
last four years, and won the
NCAAs in 1963. However, the
Maize and Blue were never able
to capture first in this Midwest
Open. "This year," Loken joyously
says, "We're aiming to take first
place."

lost once early in the season and
then waltzed through the play-
offs to the second place title.
After the lines were shoveled out
so that bare earth could be seen
under the four inches of snow, the
game got underway and both
teams played evenly until the
SAE's connected on a long bomb
from George Skaff to John Artz.
Artz got behind the defender and
was completely alone when he
caught the ball in the end zone.
With less than a minute left
in the second half SAE picked off
a Tom Kowalik pass at midfield.
The Lions then used the same play
that had clicked before, Skaff to
Artz, for their last play of the
half.
Artz gathered the ball in at the'

completed his third touchdown
pass of the day to Al Andrews. The
extra point was knocked down

to muster a sustained offensivel
drive and threatened only once.
The SAE team, which had a
string of 83 consecutive football
wins in both the A and B divi-
sions before being upended by Tau
Delta Phi, still boasts the most
outstanding grid record in all of
the intramural divisions. The
stunning defeat of the SAE's just

Take Michigan's 1963 wrestling
squad, add one year of experience
and one Big Ten championship,
and you've got Michigan's 1964
wrestling squad.
Almost, anyway.
Although Coach Cliff Keen's
conference champs have suffered
graduation losses at three posi-
tions, he will have six of eight
starters returning, and two of
these are Big Ten champions.
Keen, in his fortieth season as
Michigan coach, sends his defend-
ing Big Ten champs against Penn
State in the season opener on
December 12.
Foremost among the losses suf-
fered through graduation is that
of Ralph Bahna, who was crown-
ed Big Ten champion last year
in the 123 pound class.
Along with Bahna, graduation
claimed senior captain Wayne Mil-
ler who held down the 157 pound
spot for the Wolverines. Miller
placed fourth in his class at the
conference meet last spring.
Wilcox Gone
Also missing from the Michigan
lineup this year will be Gary
Wilcox, who was runnerup to the
Big Ten champion in the 137
pound division.
Overshadowing these losses,
however, and making the Wolver-
ines once again the team to beat
in the Big Ten, is the return of
Rick Bay, Lee Deitrick and Dave
Dozeman.
Bay is this year's team captain,
and the defending Big Ten cham-
pion in the 167 pound class and
champ in the 157 pound competi-
tion as a sophomore, Bay has yet
to lose a match in a Big Ten dual
meet.
neck injury prior to last season's
opener and was sidelined for the
entire season, will also be back in
action. As a sophomore two years
ago Dozeman won the 137 pound
consolation title, and was expect-
ed to be one of the top contend-
ers for the conference champion-
ship last season.
"Dave hasn't recovered complete-
ly," says Keen, "and it will be
a while before he's able to realize
his old form. But he's looking
stronger every day."
With the return of veterans like
these, and with a host of promis-
ing sophomores, Keen's matmen
will once again be in the thick
of the conference title race.
No Breathers
"But the Big Ten gets tougher
every year," says Keen. "We won't
have any 'breathers.' I think part
of it's due to the fact wrestling has
grown so much in recent years."
According to Keen, Michigan
State, Iowa, and Northwestern will
be especially tough.
"But there are no weak teams,"
Keen added. "Our opener against
Penn State will also be tough."
The lineup that the Wolverines
will send up against the veteran
Penn State team has yet to be de- I
cided.
Juggling
"We're doing a little juggling,"
says Keen, referring to the fact
that several of the Wolverines may
compete in different weight classes
this year.
But despite the juggling, con-
tenders for the starting spots have
emerged.
In the 123 pound class junior
Tino Lambrose is likely to become,
Bahna's successor. L a m b r o s e
pressed Bahna closely for the
starting berth last season, and saw
considerable action.
The 130 pound spot is still up
for grabs. Besides Dozeman, Keen
also has Bill Johannesen, who
held the post last year, and Jo-
hannesen's understudy, Doug Hor-
nung.
Johonnesen, however, may move
up to the 137 pound division. This
SPARI
would allow Keen to use junior
Cal Jenkins, who started there
last season, to move up to the 147
pound spot. Another possible
starter at the 137 pound spot is
Gordon Weeks, a Michigan all-
stater who has looked strong thus
far.
With Jenkins moving into the
147 pound division, Keen may use
Deitrick in the 157 pound berth
to fill the hole left by Miller.
Bay at 167
Rick Bay will once igain hold
down the starting spot at 167.
Senior Dave Post, who saw action
as a 157 pounder last season, may
wrestle either 157 or 167.
Chris Stowell will return to the
177 pound spot, while Senior Bob
Spaly will probably anchor down
the heavyweight position. Spaly
was runnerup in the Big Ten last
season and placed third in the
NCAA competition.
