THE IlCHIGAN DAILY Mat Selections For State Meet Puzzle Coach Thomas Has Difficulty In Reaching Weight; May Enter 145-Pound Class Oakley To Be Idle. 1Match Between Freshman Squad And Varsity Is Scheduled For Friday Entering the two week period of intensive training before the open- ing meet of the season, Coach Cliff Keen Is faced by several problems in selecting a regular wrestling team to face Michigan State, Jan. 21. Abundant material in the heavier divisions, where experienced wres- tlers predominate, is matched by a corresponding w e a k n e ss in the lighter classes. Chief among the problems is Cap- tain Blair Thomas. Thomas, an ex- perienced grappler at 135 lbs., re- ported overweight this season and is having difficulty in training down. lIe may choose to wrestle at 145 lbs., although Bob Helliwell, a letterman. on the 1931-32 squad is back to bid for that position. Oakley Coming Back .' Joe Oakley, veteran grappler at 126 lbs. is back working out with the squad but is still favoring an in- jured leg. It is expected that he will be kept idle during the match against the Spartans, but Oakley expects to see action on the. Eastern trip. Another enigma is Dal Sigwart, who won a. letter two seasons ago. Sigwart has been unable to practice much, due to pressing curricular ac- tivities. Should he be able to reach top form he may replace Oakley in the first match,.or may even put up a'scrap for the 118 lb. jQb, al- though Jimmy Landrum appears to have the call at that weight. f Wrestling Captain FROM THE PRESS BOX By JOHN THOMAS Swimmers Will Visit Food City For Tank Meet Ten Men In Exhibition At Battle Creek Set For Coach Hoyt Uncovers New Tdleint In Distance E I between the amen for Fri- itcome-of-sev- aaY Helps ettle een-and-White fifteen bouts BLAIR THOMAS Blair Thomas, captain of tae wres- tling squad and winner of two titles in the 135 pound class, is having dif-j ficulty in making his weight this year. After reporting overweight, he may choose to wrestle in the 145 pound class rather than train down to 135 pounds. Should he make this choice, Thomas will be competing with Helliwell, another veteran. Two Iowa P1ayei' Deelaxed 1 +li ;111 I IOWA CITY, Ia., Jan. 1-()--Ed- ward .Break. and Ivan 'Blackmere, University of Iowa basketball players, were ruled "technicallyineligible" by the Western Conference 'eligibility comnittee, according, to! a telegram received today by Dr. E. ,H.. Lauer, Hawkeye athletic director.. The two players barred from com- petition by -the eligibility commit- tee of the Iowa athletic board'Dec. 30 after an investigation by Maj. John L.' Griffith, Big, Ten commis- sionerbased on information that had been filed against them. The Hawkeye athletic board, how- 'ever, reversed action of its committee Jan. 3 and allowed Break and Black- mere to play against North Dakota State pending a decision by the con- ,ference. MICHIGAN SHOULD HAVE won1 the Illinois basketball game. By outshooting them from the floor, 7 to 6, the two-point advantage would! have won most games. But Michigan committed 11 fouls and Illinois made! 10 of the shots for the extra point. Illinois committed seven and Mich-j igan made three. The, foul line told the story, 10 points to three. Last year the Wolverines made about 50.per cent of their fouls. This was the first time that a Maize and Blue cage team dropped below 75 1 per cent for many years. So far this season they have dropped further, to about 33 per cent. Any basketball quintet spots the home quintet about seven points, ac- cording to most critics. If this is true, and considering the foul line statistics, Michigan is about due to take Illinois into camp by about a 10-point margin. However in basket- ball anything can happen. One freshman cager expressed it, "There is absolutely no justice in basket- ball.". W HILE CAPPON'S team was bow- ing to the Suckers, Coach Rayt Courtright's squad took a beating at the hands of Ray Fisher's freshmen, Monday afternoon, 30 to 16. Fisher started his second yearling team against the Bee's for the first 20- minute period and were kept on the low end of the half-time score, 12-5. Then Dick Evans, George Ford, and Co. were sent into the fray and pro- ceeded to make 12 -points before the Bee's were able to score. Ford wasl hot and his teammates kept feeding him to pile up the 25 to 4 second- half score. Coach Fisher has one of the best teams he ever coached in' this. year's cagers. He has two .excellent guards and three men on the front wall that, appear to rival those of the Varsity. THE STATE of Michigan can boast of two hot. hockey teams. Two squads that hail within its bor- ders are piling up large scores against opponents that are doped to pUt the lid on their sprees. The Red Wings in Detroit took three teams into camp within four days, which in their competition, is record-break- ing hockey.. Coach Lowrey's ice-men have been doing the 'same thing. He keeps his team at high-scoring pitch through- out 60 minutes of gruelling hockey without three front lines, as most college teams have. How they stand it has been the wonder of every op- ponent. in John Sherf Michigan has a one-man offense 'and in Emmy Reid and Keith Crossman, the cleverest passing duo in this part of the coun- try. Ted Chapman just turned in his best game of his career against O. A. C. Although he does not draw down the column inches, because he is a defense man, he is extremely 'valuable to the team. T. MARY'S of Minnesota are starting their annual eastern trip against Michigan Friday. They will play Harvard, Dartmouth, Princeton, Yale,:Clarkston, New York, Crescents and the Atlantic City Club. Last year this trip through the East won an All-American berth for their rangy center, incidentally over Jack Tompkins. They have a fast skating aggregation and as the game begins their jaunt, first-class hockey is guaranteed. SarAzeii In Favor Of Eight-Inch Cp ) 101 i In John Jewell, Lowrey has a jewel of the first water. The star goal-ten- der shows every indication of sur- passing Jack Tompkins who won the All-America berth.. i } LOS ANGELES, Jan. 10.-A,)- Gene Sarazen believes golf's greatest! need of the moment is a greater? thrill and he thinks he knows how to supply it. His suggestion is make the cups bigger. Golf now is too tame," said the open champion of the United States and Great Britain. "Good players knock the ball on the green in two strokes and then take two puts for a par four. If we had more one putt greens the game would be much more interesting to watch and play. "My idea would be to make the cups eight inches across instead of 4 3-4. What a difference that extra 3 1-4 inches would make! It would work distinctly to the advantage of the star player, and I'll tell you why. "Say a crack player and one just average are playing. The average player puts his ball on the green say 20 or 25 feet from the cup. The ex- port is closer, say 12 to 15 feet. But each will take two putts and halve the hole. If the cups were bigger, the average player would take his twvo putts from. 20 to 25 feet but the exuert from 12 to 15 feet would knock his in every time. There would be the thrill. '"In Florida some time soon we are going to have a 72-hole tournament with the cups eight inches. I be- lieve some good player well on his game will play four rounds all under 70. An expert hitting his shots will get within 10 or 12 feet of the cup on many holes and he will knock in just about every one of the putts the first tine. Battle Creek fans will get the first public glimpse of the 1933 edition of Matt Mann's National Champion swimming team tomorrow night when they will give an exhibition in that city. The squad of 10 men and Mann will travel to the Food City by auto- mobile, leaving Ann Arbor at 3:30 p. m. and returning that same night. Mann yesterday listed the men whom he will take on the trip. They are: Capt. John Schmieler, Louis Lemak, who bettered the world 50 yard breast stroke record in prac- tice this Week, James Cristy," Dick Degener, Fred Fenske, Dave Conk- lin, Henry Kamienski, Reeve Bailey, Dan Marcus, and Frank Kennedy. The coach said that Taylor Drys-1 dale would not make the trip since an incomplete has made him inelig- ible. The team will make its first local appearance only one day later when all its members will compete in the Open swimming meet to be held at the Intramural Pool on Friday night. Referring to Friday night's meet, Mann announced yesterday that the water polo game scheduled for that night will be between the Varsity and St. Clair Athletic Club from Detroit. The two met twice during the 1932 season, each winning a game, so Fri- day's tussle promises to be something of a grudge match. r Tomorrow Night WALK 0 OVER PRE - INVENTOR1Y Sloe Sa BDy hARMON L. WOLFE Something new in the way of track talent has turned up at the field house this season, and it isn't the sort of thing that saddens the sport critics about town either. Michigan appears to have a group of ui: league distance men for the coming can- paign instead of one man in each event as in the past. Heretofore Michigan fans have had to pin their entire hopes for points in the mile and two miles upon single entries, but from early session dope this year it would look as though Coach Hoyt will have difri- culty in placing all of his distance talent. In support of the ajove contention, one need only mention the practice times turned in at this early date. The veteran "Doc" Howell has al- ready turned in a fancy three-quar- ters around the 3:14 mark. and the newcomer, Don Boylan dropped the figure considerably with his 3 12 last Saturday. Either one of these per- formances might be calculated to set ENTIRE STOCK MEN'S AND WOMEN'S S AT 10% to )50% REDUCTI Wom en's Bowling Tilts Will begin Next Week Bowling reaches the heighth of the .season for the women when the finals of the Women's Intramural Xandicap tournament are played next week.
