Reorganization ROCHESTER t--There was a strong possibility yesterday that baseball's three Triple A Leagues -the International, Pacific Coast and American Association-may be merged into two leagues. Farm directors of the major league clubs, who strongly favor the consolidations, went into a closed session late yesterday with the presidents of the three top minors in an effort to settle the issue. championship, the Gophers allow- ed their opponents only 58.2 yds. per game on the ground and 2.8 yds. per play. MichiganState proved them- selves toughest to pass against, allowing a low 68.5 yds. per game. Records Shattered Five Big Ten records were shat- tered this season. For a single game performance they included: most yards gained in one game, Ohio State 517, and most passes attempted, Illinois with 42. Season records included: few- est' yards rushing allowed to op- ponents by Minnesota 58.2, most yards gained passing-Northwest- ern with 199.5 and most fumbles per game by Michigan State with 3.7.

Passing Champion The passing championship went to Ron Vanderkelen of Wisconsin, completing 77 of 146 for 1009 yds., just edging out Northwest- ern's Tom Meyers completing 81 of 142 for 1007 yds.

Raimey also led the team in yards rushing gaining 385, with fullback Wayne Sparkman second with 133. Quarterback D a v e Glinka boasts the highest rush average grinding out 4.63 yds. per carry.

IU jI ljjV G1 1, the shut-out was Tech's first in 41 games. The eight goals were scored by seven different players- sophomore George Hill notched two, Gary Begg, John Ivanitz, Norm Wimmer, Don Lauriente, and Dave and Mike Draper one each. The Gophers are hoping to im- prove their sixth place standing in the WCHA. They won only five league games, while losing ten and tieing one. Top returning Gophers include leading team scorer Ron Constan- tine, Len Lilyhom, Jim Stordall, Dave Brooks, and Gary Schmalz- bauer, the first five a year ago. Last Place Colorado College brought up the rear of the WCHA last year by virtue of 18 straight losses, ex- tending their record-breaking los- ing streak to 25. This doesn't mean that the Tig- ers will be the weak sister in the league this year. In fact Michigan hockey coach Al Renfrew thinks the squad, coached by Tony Fras- ca, will be one of the real con- tenders in the league. No Problem Frasca has no problem in get- ting hockey players-31 tried out. Frasca has 19 returning players. This year the team has experience and strength and will be fighting for a playoff berth. The Sioux from North Dakota will be led again by Dave Merri- field, high-scoring center from Port Arthur. Coach Barry Thorn- dycraft has an enviable position among hockey coaches - he can skate four experienced lines, a luxury many coaches aren't able to afford. MSU Fourth The Spartans of Michigan State finished fourth in the WCHA last year and then finished third in the play-offs. The list of returnees is led by All-American goalie John Chan- dik. Therearetwodark spots in the Spartan line-up - Claude Fournel and Real Turcotte, two of last year's high scorers, run out of eligibility on Jan. 7. The Spartans have a star-stud- ded list of sophomores to back up their 16 returning lettermen. Among the sophomores expected to play a big part in the MSU fortunes is Doug Roberts, a Detroit product who played on the cham- pion Junior Red Wings.

Their inex- perience caused them to lose two games in the play-offs, however, and finish fourth. Leading the squad is Marshall Johnston, who played wing on the national champions in 1961 and was switched to center last year.

But he still is unsure about how good his team will turn out to be. "We haven't put a watch on any of the swimmers yet," he said, "and putting a watch on them is the only way to tell how good they are." Worked Gradually The team has been working gradually into form looking to- wards the Big Ten Relays on Jan- uary 5 at Bloomington, Ind. Other big dates for the team are the Big Ten Championships on March 7-9 at Lafayette, Ind., and the NCAA Championships on March 28-30 at Raleigh, N.C. Dual meets are scheduled with the top Big Ten teams-Indiana, Ohio State, Michigan State, Min- nesota-and also with Princeton which finished justbehind Michi- gan in fifth place at last spring's NCAA meet. With Indiana ineligi- ble to compete in the meet, Ohio State won the championship, Min- nesota was third, and Michigan State was sixth. Indiana Tops "No team in the country can beat Indiana right now," said Sta- ger. "If a national championship meet were held today, Indiana would take first and second in all the swimming events except the sprints." Indiana has a multitude of su- perstars unmatched in swimming history. Stager commented that Michigan does not have a team of such superstars who are favored to win or retain Big Ten or na- tional championships. Wolverines Developing But the Wolverines are develop- ing individuals capable of chal- lenging the Indiana recordbreak- ers. The only legitimate superstar that Stager already has is senior breaststroker Dick Nelson. A two- time NCAA 100-yd. champion, Nel- son defeated Indiana's Chet Jas- tremnski in the Big Ten Meet as a sophomore to set a Big Ten, NCAA, and American record. He lost his championship to Jastrem- ski last season as "Chet the Jet" touched him out breaking his rec- ords. Despite this fine record at 100 yds., Stager says that Nelson is "completely unpredictable" at 200 yds. In both previous Big Ten Meets, Nelson was fifth which was disappointing when compared with his showings at 100 yds. As a soph- omore he didn't make the finals of the NCAA 200 but finished sec- ond last season. It was his finest effort after extreme variations in his 200 performances during the season. 'Big Trouble' "Dick's big trouble in the 200 is that he doesn't swim smart," said Stager. "He never will train enough at the 200 to get used to it." A potential champion is sopho- more backstroker Ed Bartsch. "I think he could be the best back- stroker in the country," Stager stated, "but he'll have to prove it in competition." Bartsch swam faster times than the varsity 100-yd. and 200-yd. records as a freshman last sea- son. He had placed in both the 100- and 200-yd. events at the Na- tional Indoor AAU Meet but he is best at the longer distance. Junior butterflyers Jeff Moore aild Enn Manhard placed fourth and fifth at the Big Ten Meet as sophomores. Their efforts in the meet were by far their best of the season and showed a great im- provement from the start of the season. Moore Better Stager said that, "Moore espe- cially is swimming better this year. He's way ahead of last year. Neith- er of the two is anywhere near as good at 100 yds. I'm beginning to think more and more that swim- ming the 200 and 200 are incom- patible,"reported Stager. "Most of the best 100-yd. but- terflyers are freestyle sprinters," he continued, using the example of Frank Legacki, a former Michi- gan sprinter great, who never practiced butterfly but holds the American record for 100 yds. Michigan's current two best 100- yd. butterflyers are sprinters: Lanny Reppert and Tom Burns. The area where Michigan has an advantage over Indiana is ih the freestyle sprints. Sophomores Jim Riutta, John Johnson, Tom Burns, and Lanny Reppert make up a quartet that Indiana can't beat.
