THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1960 MEETS TROY: Gillanders To Face Toug 4. > THE MICHIGAN DAILY By HAL APPLEBAUM J. David Gillanders sat in the third row of seats at Varsity Pool hunched over a mathematics book, oblivious to his surroundings and the practice session which was in full swing. Working out an equation which filled the width of his notebook, the slight 5'11", 150-pound), be- spectacled Gillanders, a Junior honors student in Engineering, looked like anything but a cham- pion swimmer. Only the blue sweatshirt with the letters USA emblazoned across the front, representative of parti- cipation in the Pan-American Games, gave an indication of his athletic ability. A few minutes later the swim- mers in the water completed their practice set and Gillanders and the other members of the group he. works with prepared to take over. Removing his glasses and neat- ly folding his sweatshirt he, placed them and his now closed book in % carefully stacked position and climbed over the retaining wall to the swimming area. Moments later, standing on the diving blocks J. David Gillanders the budding engineer became Dave Gillanders, NCAA and Pan Amer- ican butterfly champion. Though transformed from the world of the intellect to that of athletics Gillanders remained basically the same, intent, hard- working and successful in his en- deavors. Success has come to Gillanders in a big way in the last year (he has won the NCAA 100- and 200- yard butterfly championship and swam a leg on Michigan's 400- yard medley relay champions in the same meet. He climaxed the year by winning a first place gold medal in the Pan-A m e r i c an Games) but he will face his big- gest challenge of the 1959-60 sea- son when he meets arch-rival Mike Troy of Indiana. Summer Sensation Troy, a Hoosier sophomore, was not eligible as freshman last year to challenge Gillanders for the collegiate championships, but this past summer, and open com- petition found him to be the hot- test thing in swimming. First he set a world record for 200-meters butterfly while win- ning the AAU championships in California in July. Then, compet- ing for the U.S. team in two dual meets against the Japanese be broke hid own record. Returning from the Orient he was rated the number one butter- flyer in the world and became a strong favorite for the Pan-Amer-. ican Games title. In the Pan-Am trials Troy characteristically sprinted to an early lead and then barely held off the fast finishing Gillanders to win the trials and retain his number one rating,. Turns Tables on Troy However, Gillanders turned the tables on Troy at the Game in Chicago, wearing down Troy in the stretch, to win the first two place medals. Now, Troy, who broke all in- door records for the 200-yard but- terfly ten days ago against Pur- due with a clocking of 2:00.8, will be seeking revenge Saturday when' the Hoosiers attempt to break Michigan's dual meet win streak of 32 and wrest supremacy in the hest Foe collegiate swim world from the Wolverines. - No matter whether Gillanders or Troy win Saturday's race theE consensus of opinion is that the winner will become the first man# to ever swim the 200-yard butter- " fly in less than two minutes. Different Styles "They have different styles. Troy sprints at the start and tries to go that way for 200 yards, r whille Gillanders is a pace swim- mer. Only time will tell whether or not he can catch Troy again." Michigan coach Gus Stager said. "I can't say who will win, but the records may well be broken," he added. The pressure on both Gilland- ers and Troy is great as the show- down approaches. In a meet where one or two points may be decisive, victory is all important.
