THE MICHIGAN DAILY FRIDAY, DECEMBER 14,1962 THE MICHIGAN DAILY FRIDAY, DECEMBER 14, 198~ TOUGH TASK: FM' IcersJ By MIKE BIXBY Michigan's hockey men are in for a stern test tonight as they take on the University of Denver in the opener of a two-game series. Denver coach Murray Arm- strong felt that his team could get into the thick of contention for the 1962-63 WCHA champion- ship after a good start in their firstroad trip. The Pioneers split -i a two-game series with Michigan Tech at Houghton last weekend, and if they are able to win one or two of the games here, they would be in a very good position. M eanwhie, while Michigan and Michigan Tech, the top two teams in the league last year, are having their troubles getting started this year, Michigan State has won 90 68V 6 PSt 10 80yeare of their first four games.

': To Entertain Denver, Big Ten Raises Requirements For Financial Aid to Athletes (.. r t J f 1 Y V I CHICAGO (P) - Big Ten fac- ulty representatives announced at conference meetings yesterday that the requirements for an ath- lete to receive financial aid will be slightly higher in the future. Frank Remington of Wisconsin, secretary of faculty representa- tives, said in order for an athlete to qualify for aid in the future both his high school average and aptitude tests scores will have to be about 10 per cent higher than in the past. Working on the basis that 80 per cent of athletes given aid have succeeded, the representatives in- dicated that the new level is mere- ly a continuation of higher stand- ards required for both athletes and non-athletes. Five Ideas Bill Reed, Big Ten commissioner, said the athletic directors' meet- ing produced five recommenda- tions, all resulting from the recent meeting held by Big Ten football However, Reed said no an- nouncement would be made on, the recommendations until after they are presented to a joint meet- ing today of athletic directors and faculty representatives. The athletic directors voted an assessment of $1,000 school to replenish the conducting conference ments such as golf and for each fund for tourna- tennis. Schedule Change Forrest Anderson, Michigan State basketball coach, appeared before, the athletic directors and brought up an old matter Ander- son suggested conference basket- ball games should be played on Saturdays and Tuesdays instead of the current Saturday-Monday schedule. No action was taken on Ander- son's suggestion. It will be placed on the agenda for the March meeting when the possibility of returning to an 18-game confer- ence schedule will be discussed. The Big Ten played a round-robin basketball schedule in 1952-53. Bowl Budget Reed also announced that he will meet with conference football coaches Jan. 29 to continue studies concerning football officiating. Controversies which arose last season in football games have prompted the conference to make a study of the selection and train- ing of officials in regard to.appli- cation of the rules. Earlier in the day, the Big Ten PIONEER THREATS -- Michigan's icers will have difficulty getting around Denver's Jack Wilson (left). He was an All-WCHA choice at defense last year. Pioneer captain Marshall Johnston has recovered from a shoulder separation to again lead his team. a fourth line practicing with the team, which adds to the hustle of the Pioneers, since each one knows there is someone ready to step in his place if he doesn't do the job. The Denver defense is back to full strength now after being ham- Basketball Entries Anyone interested in entering a basketball team in the Intra- mural Independent Division must turn in an entry of not more than ten eligible players to the office at the Intramural Bldg. not later than Saturday. pered by an injury to junior Jim Kenning. Jon Art played defense last year, but was moved back to forward where he was stationed two years ago in an effort to add scoring punch. Sophomores Doug Kowel and Bob Lindsay have looked good in the first few games, and along with senior Jack Wilson and jun- ior Len Sedgwick provide the Pi- oneers with a solid back line. Big Struggle Last year's goalie for Denver, junior Larry Beaucamp has found himself in quite a struggle to hold his job. Rudy Unis, who was Beau- camp's understudy last season, has gained much poise and agility since last year and could well take the job away from Beaucamp. Unis played against Michigan Tech and did well enough to earn a chance at stopping Michigan. Denver's graduation losses were relatively light, as only three Pi- oneers are not back. However, one of these was Trent Beatty, who was selected to the All-WCHA second team last year. He was also Denver's leading scorer. Michigan coach Al Renfrew views this Denver team as one of the teams to beat for the league title. He feels that the Pioneers are stronger than last year, when they finished third behind the Wolverines and Michigan Tech. Michigan's icers have been ham- pered somewhat this week due to schoolwork. Many of the players have missed practice due to exams in some departments. Otherwise the team has had a good week of practice, and there have been no injuries or changes in the lines since last weekend. Texans Gain Bell Contract. DALLAS (JP)-Bobby Bell, Min- nesota's All-America tackle hailed as the outstanding interior line- man of collegiate football, was signed to a contract by the Dallas Texans of the American Football League yesterday. Don Klosterman, Texan scout, signed Bell at Minneapolis. Bell was the seventh draft choice of the Texans and the second pick of the Minnesota Vikings of the National Football League. approved Wisconsin's $105,000 Rose Bowl budget. Conference athletic directors agreed to accept main responsibil- ity for providing "best possible playing conditions" for football games. This concerns keeping a weather eye on proper time for removal of field tarpaulins. The directors also suggested ap- pointment of a committee to study the problem of player bench loca- tions and communication to the benches. It is a growing trend, the direcr tors agreed, for some schools to demand placement of too many spotters, not only in the press box, but at other vantage points, for electronic messages to the bench. SPORT SHORTS: Nationwide Grid Viewers Reach Peak By The Associated Press NEW YORK -- Despite the de- cline in the number of colleges playing the sport, football attend- ance pushed over the 21 milion mark for the first time in 1962 as the nation's 610 teams attracted larger crowds for the ninth con- secutive year. LONDON-The chairman of the British Lawn Tennis Association said yesterday the organization should break with the internation- al body and run an open tourna- ment at Wimbledon for both ama- teurs and professionals.

DRY SPELL: Practice, Exhibits Keep M' Gymnasts in Trim This Weekend in Sports FRIDAY Hockey-Michigan vs. Denver, here, 8 p.m. SATURDAY Hockey-Michigan vs. Denver, here, 8 p.m. Wrestling-Michigan vs. Penn State at University Park By MIKE BLOCK What does a gymnastics team do when it doesn't have a meet from Dec. 1 to Jan. 12? Well, if it's one like Michigan's, with possibilities for a national championship, it just keeps on practicing. The place is the characteristic- ally chalky, dusty gymnastics practice room, located in the In- tramural Bldg. There, Coach Newt Loken conducts what he likes to call "a gymnastics exhibition every- day of the week." Informal Practice A practice session in this sport is remarkably different from one in almost any other. Unlike a team sport, in which the coach is con- stantly superv= ping the entire squad working together as a unit, here the various athleteshwork separately, with Loken helping each one with his individual events. As a result, the atmosphere is quite informal. Loken, a man who seldom stands still for any length of time, is continually shouting words of encouragement or advice to his charges. And the gymnasts themselves are always seeking ways to help each other out. Evidently this "casual" approach works, because Loken has as- sembled and developed one of thej finest groups of gymnasts in the country. Besides pointing at the five dual and triple meets during the regular season, his long-range goal is the Big Ten championship, to be decided March 8 and 9 at East Lansing. If the Wolverines take it, it'll be their third straight, and Loken is higher on this team than he's ever been before. Biggest Threats Once aagin, Illinois and Michi- gan State will be the main thorns in Michigan's side this year. The Illini, who had taken the Big Ten, title for 11 straight years before the Wolverines captured it in 1961, finished fourth in the NCAA last year, with the Spartans right be- hind them. Since Michigan has dual meets with both of these ,rx schools, Loken will have ample opportunity to see what he's up against in the conference meet. Because of this confidence in his men, Loken bemoans the fact that Michigan has only two home meets this season, Feb. 16 with Illinois, and Feb. 22 with Minne- sota. To help remedy the situa- tion, he conducts several exhibi- tions in order to help the public to become, familiar with the sport. He feels that it just takes one meet to interest a person in the sport, and that if a good-size crowd came to the exhibitions, there wouldn't be the small crowds at the dual meets as has been the case in the past. # h * . . ..i ImM SPOII1LIGIUF By Bob Zinck Week of Decision Two intramural volleyball championships have been decided in the last week. In the Independent division, Sportsmen took the. title by winning four games out of six from Foresters. Delta Upsilon came out on top in the social fraternity league when they out-spiked Sigma Chi in taking four out of five decisions. Van Tyne House engaged Scott House in about as close a swim match as possible. Almost every event was won by one team or the other just barely out-touching their opponent. And at the finish the score was a 30-30 tie. However, I-M rules award the meet to that team which wins the freestyle relay if there is a tie. So the cham- pionship went to Van Tyne since their relay team was victorious. As if that alone was not enough to rank among unusual incidents, it so happened that in the semi-finals, too, Van Tyne ended in a 30-30 tie and that the same relay team won, thus putting them in the finals. Next Tuesday night Sigma Alpha Epsilon will face Phi Gamma Delta'for the social fraternity swimming crown. SAE got into the finals when they dunked Delta Tau Delta 36-24. The Phi Gam's earned their title shot by swamping Beta Theta Pi by a 41-19 score. Beta Theta Pi and Hayden House have won wrestling champion- ships. The top three teams of the social fraternities were: Beta Theta Pi, 20; Phi Gamma Delta, 18; and Sigma Epsilon, 17 points. The in- dividual winners were: Bob Blumberg, TEP, 123-lbs.; Jim Folger, SPE, 130-lbs.; Bill Zollinger, PGD, 137-lbs.; Mike Nuechterlein, SAE, 147- lbs.; Tom Pullen, PGD, 157-lbs.; Dave Brazier, PDT, 167-lbs.; Steve Lewis, BTP, 177-lbs.; and Jim Tuck, LCA, hvy.
