Meetings To Be Held
For Interested Wriers
LOS ANGELES (R) - National
Football League owners went
home yesterday and if there was
a noticeable smile on the dour
face of George Halas, there's a
logical reason.
After 39 years of trying, the
Chicago Bears owner finally got
rid of his: crosstown rivals, the
Cardinals.
It developed yesterday when the
NFL unanimously approved the
transfer of the Cards from Chica-
go to St. Louis.
The transfer was, costly, es-
pecially to Halas. The Cardinals
were given $500,000 to make the
switch and pay off their lease-on
Soldier Field., Half the tab was re-
portedly picked up by Halas.
.But he expects to make it back
-in spades.
Crack at TV
The reason: for the first time,
he'll get a crack at the nation's
third most lucrative television
market, Until now, the city has
been blacked out because either
the Bears or Cardinals were play-
ing at home.
The transfer came after heated
denials to the contrary from
Cardinal Managing Director Wal-
ter Wolfner.
There were smiles, too, in the
camp of the new Dallas Rangers.
They became more than a paper
team during the league's three-
day weekend meeting when they
were given 18 playsre from the
other teams. More will be an-
nounced later.
Five of the Dallas choices sig-
nificantly saw collegiate action on
southwest gridirons-a factor that
will probably bring results at the
gate in football-happy Texas.
These include several former

For all those interested sport
fans, The Michigan Daily sports
staff has announced two meetings
Wednesday or Thursday at 7:30
p.m. for prospective sports writ-
ers.
Anyone wanting an immediate
opportunity to write sports for
The Daily, should attend one of
the two brief meetings at which
he will be able to discuss his fu-
ture with The Daily sports staff.
The beginning of the new
spring sports season will be an
excellent chance for any en-
grossed sports enthusiasts to re-
port the activities of Michigan
varsity teams.
Gymnasts Vote Mont petit
Captain, Most Valuable
By CLIFF MARKS
All-around gymnast Rich Mont-
petit was voted two honors by his
teammates yesterday, Most Valu-
able Player, and Captain of the
1960-61 squad.
Montpetit, a junior this year,a
was a top point getter all year for
the Wolverines, and other than
the tumbling crews (including the
Rebound variety) scored the only
points for Michigan's fifth place
Big Ten crew.
There is significance in the fact
that Montpetit was voted this
year's most valuable and captain
for next season. Coach Newt Loken
commented on this and extended
it to say, "Rich should be a fine
leader to follow up Skinner's (Bill)
excellent captaincy this year. He
can set a good example for the
boys in that he is a fine all-around
gymnast."
This was certainly not meant to
be a reflection on previous cap-
tains, but Montpetit competes in
five of the seven events, whereas
Skinner, for example, only com-
peted in two, free exercise and
tumbling, his specialty.
Montpetit himself has no one
specialty, though he captured first
place honors in the Canadian
NAAU meet last summer in the
side horse.
This year, in the Midwest Open,
Montpetit made a strong showing
i by taking second in the side horse,
fourth in the all - around, and
seventh in the still rings against
the top competition in the Mid-
west.
Montpetit has some things to
look forward to, both this year
and next. The up coming NCAA
meet should prove interesting with
Rich competing for himself rather
than a team which at times puts
much pressure on an all-around
gymnast. Then next year, only
three seniors graduate (Skinner,
Wolf Dozauer and Al Stall) with
a promising crop of seven freshmen
ready to move up.
No previous journalistic experi-
ence is necessary, just a 'love' ofc
sports. The Daily staff is willing
to wqrk with any applicants in-1
terested in making a closer con-R
tact with the sports world - onI
both local and national levels. #
