Wildcats Have Largest Number
of Entries But They Lack
Veteran Swimmers.
Western Conference swimming
activities for the 1931 season will
reach their culmination here to-
morrow and Saturday nights when
eight of the ten Conference teams
compete for the tank title now in
the hands of the Northwestern
tankmen. Seventy-nine men in all
have been entered in the all-Con-
ference title meet by Chicago, Illi-
nois, Purdue, I o w a, Minnesota,
Northwestern, Ohio State, a n d
Michigan.
Although the Wildcats, defending
champions, lead the list of entries
with 17 men, they are not being
touted as a favorite this season as
their team is mainly composed of
sophomores and they recently suf-
fered a crushing defeat at the
hands ofthe powerful Wolverine
aggregation under the tutelage of
Coach Matt Mann.
Michigan, with only 12 men en-
tered, is the strong favorite to cop
the honors this year and get their
revenge for the defeat administered
them last season by the Purple
team which took the title after los-
ing to the Wolves in a dual meet.
It is predicted that tomorrow's pre-
liminaries will result in the Wol-
verine tank tealli leading the list
of qualifiers.
Illinois, perhaps the strongest
contenders next to Michigan, have
several stars who will provide plenty
of competition for their Big Ten
opponents. Brock is undoubtedly
