IPILE PERFECT RECORD: Wrestlers Shine in Big Ten Meets IN MIDDLE-DISTANCES: Leps Leads Michigan Runners ~'1 4 .. :. .. By DAVE LYON Associate Sports Editor ichigan's wrestlers would just oon have the season end right n the basis of dual meets so this season between the vari- teams in the Big Ten, Michi- comes out a winner. he Wolverines have defeated r Conference teams in head-to- ,d dual meets: Ohio State (24-, Purdue (23-3), Northwestern -5), and Iowa (14-11). Michi- 's only loss is to Penn State. lichigan State, considered the of roadblock to a Maize and e-colored Big Ten crown, was felled Monday night by Pittsburgh, 15-11. The Wolverines hung up a 17-11 verdict over Pitt. Iowa, a Michigan victim, bumped off Minnesota earlier this season, 17-13. Both are considered to have a chance at the Conference cham- pionship. That leaves three Big Ten squads - Indiana, Illinois, and Wisconsin. The Badgers have been beaten by both and many others. MSU and Iowa include Indiana and Illinois among their victims. Michigan Coach Cliff Keen is apt to discount the above rational- ization, and wait until the Con- ference meet here March 4-5 to find out who will be team cham- pion. He knows from experience that the team that wins the dual meets doesn't necessarily win the Conference title. The relative strengths of two given teams tend to be different in dual meets than in a Big Ten championship meet, where eight other teams are involved. And a rapidly - moving squad will be stronger at Big Ten time than during the dual-meet season. More than once, a Keen-coached team has compiled unimpressive dual-meet record, only to show its best form in the Big Ten cham- pionships. From what this year's Wolverine edition has shown, there seems to be little room for improvement. Keen is most likely to have his men concentrate on conditioning and aggressiveness in the coming weeks before the Conference af- fair. Dual meets at Illinois and Indi- ana this weekend and at Michigan State the weekend after offer the Wolverines a chance at a 10-1 record, which would be the best for a Keen team since the 1951 mark of 9-0-1.f Records this season indicate that Michigan should win solid tri- umphs at Illinois tomorrow night and at Indiana Saturday. The Michigan State encounter Feb. 27 promises to be a tough one for the Wolverines, but a victory at East Lansing will definitely stamp Michigan "the team to beat" in the Big Ten champion- ships.

Tidwell's conference average swelled to 20.4 points per game as he eased past Indiana's huge Walt Bellamy in the scoring race. Against the towering Hoosiers, Tidwell tossed in one more than the 6'11" center who is now sixth on the Big Ten averaging 20.3 points per contest. Big Ten sophomores Terry Disch- inger of Purdue and Jerry Lucas of the league-leading Ohio State Buckeyes continue to pace Big Ten cagers. Dischinger is scoring at a 28.5 per game pace while Lucas has been sinking 26.4 points per game. Ron Johnson of Minnesota is fourth.- Overall, Michigan's unorthodox sniper has a 20.5 average, just one-tenth of a point above his conference mark. By BILL PHELPS "If he has enough determination and is willing to go all-out, Ergas Leps could run a 4:06 mile just about any time now." Those were the words of Michi- gan track coach Don Canham con- cerning his sophomore middle-dis- tance man after the latter's great job in anchoring two very good relay teams in the Los Angeles Times meet last weekend. Leps first came into prominence by winning both the half-mile and mile events in the Ontario High School Track and Field Cham- pionships in June, 1958. Later in that same summer, the Toronto runner gained interna- tional attention after he ran a 4:13.6 mile-one of the fastest ever recorded by a North American schoolboy-in an open meet at Hamilton, Ont. Because it was an open meet, however, the time wasn't counted as a high school record. In the second effort, he was pushed by ex-Wolverine track cap- tain Ron Wallingford, also of Toronto. Luckily (for Michigan) Wallingford didn't stop pushing until he had pretty well persuaded Leps to come to Ann Arbor. Leps wasn't to be hurried south, however, until he ran 1:55.6 to set a new Canadian high school half-mile record. Kelsey First In Pig Pong Kelsey strengthened its hold on first place in residence hall I-M all-year standings last night by edging Huber, 3-2, for the table- tennis championship. Bruce Martin of Kelsey broke a 2-2 tie by defeating Huber's Ron Beckman, 21-19, 9-21, 21-19, in the deciding match.

UJ W Ud W' W. RUSHEES OTI After winning the Michigan AAU cross-country meet as a freshman. Leps concentrated more on the 1,000 yards, half-mile, and 440 in an effort to increase his speed. Last fall he moved indoors and in February ran a very creditable 1,000 yards in the Boston Knights of Columbus meet. During that winter he did a lot of weight training, "because I feel that if I build up my shoulders and arms they will give me more drive." Whether it was a result of the weight training program, or the inspiration of a cute new fiancee at home, Leps started off the in- door season' very well this winter. In the pre-Christmas inter-squad meet, he took the baton for the final leg of the mile relay, made up a six yard deficit between him- self and speedy Marsh Dickerson, and brough his baton home first in the excellent indoor time of :49.3. Between semesters he bettered the varsity 1,000 yards record with I FREE DELIVERY * FREE DELIVERY1 -RUSHERS HERS an unofficial 2:11 clocking in the K. of C. meet at Boston. His recent part in the double victory at Los Angeles indicates that he will be a potential threat at all .distances from 440 yards to 1,000 yards as well as the mile in the Big Ten indoor meet. Coach Canham admits that it will be quite a chore trying to fit Leps, Tony Seth, Earl Deardorff and the tother fine middle-distance men into the events in which they will all have their best chances. Leps seems to be at his best in a race when he is just behind the leader going into the final stretch. Then, almost without fail, he is outside of, even with, and then ahead of the formers, pace-setter. It Is probably his great facility to be able to come from behind that prompts Coach Canham to use him as anchor man on the relay teams. In this Olympic year, Leps has his sights set on a berth on the Canadian track team. "It will take lots of speed work as wel las distance training," he estimates, "but that trip to Rome cc a 'U {i1 CIS TODAY ONLY!! 12" PIZZA with PEPPERONI ONLY r - 0 = RABIDEAU2IIHARR "Where the Good Clothes Come From" 119 S.
