A. U. TOURNEY Whether the eventual tie for Con- ference basketball honors lies between Purdue and Indiana, or between Pur- due, Indiana, and Wisconsin, or be- tween Purdue and Wisconsin, or fin- ally, whether or not that tie is event- ual after all, depends almost entirely upon the form indicated by Coach George Veenker's Michigan team in its remaining pair of games with Wis- consin'and Indiana. At any rate the Northwestern quin, tet, which was one of the possibilities until settled by the Wolverines, is no longer any more than a mnere mathe- matical "possibility." Michigan re- tains the opportunity to reduce the Hoosiers and Badgers to the same eegory. Iowa, too, retains this opportunity through a game with the Badgers on Saturday. The Hawks are also sched- uled to meet Purdue before the sea- son is closed. But in this week's schedule is lo- cated whatever gauntlet there is for the championship contenders. I1hii, Wildcats Play Tonight Tonight's tilt between the erratic Illini and the still contending Wild- cats will decide how Northwestern can remain in the running. Coach Lonborg's Northwestern team, with seven games won and three lost is not yet definitely out of the race. On Saturday the feature encounter, as it was several weeks ago, will be that between Michigan and Indiana. If the Hoosiers, defeated by a one- point margin in their last meeting with the Wolverines, are successful in reversing the previous verdict, it is practically a certainty that they will at least share the top rung of the ladder after the final reckoning. In the other tilt of importance Wis- consin and Iowa meet at Madison. Dr. WalterMeanwell'- great defensive Badger team is favored to repeat its triumph scored earlier in the 1928 campaign. Maroons To Finish First Chicago will be the first squad to complete the 12-game season when on Saturday the Maroons oppose Coach Craig Ruby's Illinois five at Cham- paign. Individual scoring records of lead- ers follow: (All have played in 10 game's.). TOM HFENEY Who will have another opportunity to secure a bout with Gene Tunney, heavyweight champion when he fights Jack Delaney at Madison Square Garden, New York, tonight. Heeney has fought in only 32 matches, 10 of which he won via the knockout route, and 16 by decisions. He is an aggressive fighter. Varsity Breaks Even With Wisconsin Iii Final Series Of Big Ten Competition SQUAD HAS POOR RECORD Achieving a form unequalled before this season, the Michigan hockey sex- tet drew its unsuccessful campaignj to a close by holding the second placet Badgers to a tie in one game and then handed them a 3 to 1 defeat in the final Conference game. This la'st series of games was the on.,' one in which the Wolverines were able to break more than even with an adver- sary. Coach Eddie Lowrey was placed at a severe disadvantage when he took over the reign of the Michigan team this year. For the greater part of the time .only three men of previous Var- sity hockey experience were able to be with the team. Imprewed By Addition Of Fisher , At the beginning of the second1 semester Coach Lowrey had his team improved by the addition of Mort Fisher, a Varsity man of two years ago. Fisher has played regularly at center since he joined the squad. Jones, Maney, and Copeland were the veterans who formed the backbone of the organization. Captain Maney went well at the first and last of the sea- son, but suffered d slump in the middle of it. Copeland was very ef- fective and Jones played a consist- ently good game at goal tending. At the defensive positions Coach Lowrey had to use men who were new to Conference hockey. Bryant and Hart took care of those duties regu- larly for the last. part of the season, with Waldron, as a substitute. The pair of regulars played well, Bryant being a hard checker, and Hart a fast skater. These two men should have little trouble next year in turn- ing back the strongest of opponents. Shea Injured In Gopher Came Shea, who started the season at de- fense, was injured in the first Min- nesota game and has not be.en in a game since. His loss was keenly felt and 'should he return to the squad next year the Wolverine's defense will be bolstered. BOW ING TEAM COMPETES rIOl)AY The Michigan bowling team composed of Boice, Crom'wall, Resman, Neukom, and Keller1 t will compete in the Western Conference telegraphic bowling meet at 4 o'clock today on the Union alleys. Wolverine Maize w ho %o %0%0%0%OWO% Following their single day of rest after the gruerling Ohio game, the Wolverine basketeers resumed prac- tice yesterday in preparation for the second game of the season with Indi- ana Saturday at Bloomington. Tonight's drill will be the final practice of the year for Coach Veenker's charges as they en- train for Bloomington tomorrow, and meet Wisconsin Monday night in the field house in the final en- counter on the schedule. In addition to ,giving the Wolverines a perfect average in their two game series with the Ohio cagemen, Mon- day's victory has apparently 'solved the problem of determining the most effective lineup. Against the Buckeyes the Michi- gait team demonstrated its ability tc score points almost at will and although on two occasions the Scarlet and Gmry siarp-shooters imperiled the Wolverine Lead, they never headed the V6enker- coached outfit. For the first time this season Capt. Frank Harrigan flashed the form that gained him all-Conference honors last year and led his team in piling up its 12-4 lead early in the game. Goaded by the boos of its fol- lowers, the Ohio team found itself and gradually cut down the Wol- verine lead until the score stood 21-16 against them at the half. During the second half Bennie Oosterbaan started on his scoring spree, sinking seven baskets to bring his total up to 41 points for the last two games and 111 for the season. Bill Orwig, sophomore star, also played a spectacular game in his initial appearance against a Buckeye team and scored a total of nine points. Hinchman, Evans, and Van Heyde, Buckeye sophomores played well for the losers, while Geer, who was in- jected into the game during the clos- ing minutes sank two long field goals in as many tries. Unusually few penalties were doled out during the progress of the contest; Ohio being charged with four and the Wolverines with half as many. Rumors from Bloomington, where Coach Everett Dean is working on a defense to stop the mighty Ooster- baan, have it that Wells will be dele- gated to watch the versatile Michigan forward, although it seems more prob- able that McCrackerj, big Hoosier center, will draw that difficult a'ssign- ment. Hoosier state fans will be treat- ed to a real fight for scoring honors when Oosterbaan and Mc- Cracken take the floor, as the Wolverine leads the Big Ten scor- ers with a total of 111, while Mc- Cracken is only four points be- hlnd. Coach Veenker is counting heavily on Bob Chapman's ability to repeat his performance in the first encounter, with the Hoosiers, when he had a slight advantage as far as the tipoff was concerned. The Indiana coach is leaving nothing undone in his preparation to turn back the Wolverine inva- sion and thus hold the top rung in the .Big Ten standings as well as avenge the 41-40 defeat sus- tained here earlier in the season at the hands of the Maize and Blue cagemen. CAMPUS SHOW SCHEDULED Battling for the right to compete in the National A. A. U. champion- ships and for a possible berth on the American Olym-pic boxing team, Wil- liam Berkowitz, '30, will participate in the Michigan A. A. U. boxing tour- nament which starts tonight in De- troit. Berkowitz, who is the star boxer of the Wolverine squad, already holds the Eastern Michigan middle- weight title. He is considered by many as good Olympic material, but this tournament will do much to test his mettle. Several others of the Philbin-coached squad are entered in the Detroit show, and a good show- ing by the entire group is expected. Wesley Sauve, a Detroit product. and runnerup to Berkowitz in the Eastern Michigan A. A. U. tourna- me-nt, is entered in tonight's setto and will no doubt again m'aet the Wolverine ace before the, completion of the tourney. The meet is being run on the elimination plan. Pre- liminaries are scheduled for the Ca- dilla, A. C. tonight, and finals for the Ol ympia, Detiroit sport center, Friday. The first competition in which the entire boxing squad will take part will be in the nature of an all-cam- pus show, which will take place on March 8, in the field house.

Coach iClifford Keen is undecided, however, whether to use the veteran Donahoe in the 158 or light heavy- weight class in the meet with the Crimson. He has competed satis- factorily in both weights thus far'. In case Coach Keen uses him in the 175 pound classWarren will face Swain. Swain, who returned to Indiana after a two year's absence, is rated as one of the best matmen ever produced in Conference circles. Among other honors he hold's a victory over Loca- baugh, former Oklahoma A and M 158 poundI star. Locabaugh was a meni- ber of the United States Olympic team in 1924 and the defeat at the hands of Swain was the single reverse of his mat career. The Hoosier coach has intimated that he may use Swain in the 145 pound class in order to strengthen his team to meet the formidable Wolver- ine outfit.

World shipbuilding is more than FROSH WRESTLERS WILL MEET IN MAT TOURNEY Members of the 'freshman wrest- ling squad will be given an oppor- tunity to prove their merit in an all-frosh wrestling tournament to be held during the first week in April. This tournament, which will end the season 'for the yearlings, will in,- elude boti 'the group working in Waterman gymnasium and the group at the field house. It is not intended that results of the meet will form any basis for the awarding of numerals to take place im-mediately afterwards. According to Coach Soloman the numerals will be given to the members of the squad who have shown the most improve- ment during the season. Attention and interest will also figure largely in the awarding of numerals. Czochoslovakia now claims a pop- ulation of nearly 14,000,000. mo.r.rim ---- White Swan Laundry Co.
