43, MARCH 18, 1934 THE MICHIGA N DAILY 1TPR! PLAY & BY-PLAY] By AL NEWMAN Century's Battle ... * * * JUST TO PROVE ME WRONG, Baer and Carnera have placed their X's at the bottom of a contract to fight on June 14. Now here I thought all along that a fight be- tween the champ and the logical con- tender was just about as likely in present fight circles as snow in Au- gust. But they have gone and put the bite on my prediction. The story contains a neat little note that is worth freely quoting. It says that after the most tedious and boring session of wrangling ever seen in signing a professional bout, things finally wound up with every- body satisfied. That last crack is good for a laugh in any league. They have cut Jack Dernpsey in on the promotion end of it, which brings the ranks of the promoters up somewhere in the fifties. The way fight gates are going these days it is an inscrutable mystery to the sport- ing world why there are so many people who are trying to claw their way into a piece of a big profession- al bout. Of course, it's just like put- ting your nickel into a slot machine. You will probably lose your nickel, but you may cash in for plenty. * * * T HIS is the first time in many years that the champion has signed to fight the logical contender, and it just goes to show that the big-shots in the prizefight business are getting hep to the idea that the citizens are not laying their frogskins out on the line to see a big palooka waltz through 15 rounds with some octogenarian who can hardly stand alone and who has been selected as the challenger just because of that fact. Yes, they are giving the citizens what they want just this once. . . an opportunity to see Playboy Baer,- who under present pugilistic condi- tions, is undoubtedly the best of the U. S. heavyweights, go into the ring with the monstrous Italian. . . . the first time that the poor little title has had any kind of a chance to change hands since Primo got it. It isn't as though the bout were likely to go down in history as a classic or anything like that. But as far as the fundamental policy shown ,in the signing of the contract is con- cerned it is a new departure and as such, the fight deserves the desig- nation of "The attle of the Cen- tury." ROSCOE USES ONE HAND George Roscoe, of Minnesota, is one of the good one-handed shots in col- lege basketball. He got that way after an injury to his left arm threatened to put him out of the game perma- nently. Eight Big Ten Champions To Wrestle Here Indiana Will Bring Four Conference Winners To National Meet Champions crowned in all weight' divisions of the recent Big Ten wrest- ling meet will appear here in the Na- tional Intercollegiate wrestling meet next week. The entry of an eight-man team from Indiana, Big Ten team cham- pions and claimants to the mythical national title, will bring four cham- pions while Illinois will bring three and Michigan will supply the eighth. The Hoosiers cieaned up in the Conference meet, with the four win- ning titles. Besides the four Con- ference champions the Hoosiers will present four Conference runners-up. The four Hoosier champions are Pat Devine, captain of the team, at 135 lbs., Frank Krahulik at 155 lbs., Oliver Gillum, who defeated Louie Parker of Michigan in the 165 lb. finals, and Dick Voliva. Devine Two-Year Champ Devine is a senior, and has been Big Ten champion for two years. He will be defending the 135 lb. crown won in the National meet last year. Krahulik is the lone sophomore win- ner on the squad. Dick Voliva, second in the Big Ten and National meets last year is a senior as is Gillum, although the lat- ter has used but two years of his eligibility. The four Hoosier runners-up were Howard Bush at 118 lbs., Oliver Cel- lini, 126 lbs., a junior, and also a runner-up] in last year's National meet, Artie Peters at 145 lbs., and Otto Buss, heavyweight. Buss was eliminated in the un- limited division by Barney Cosnek of Illinois, who had been defeated in an earlier match by Buss. The Hoo- sier's regular heavyweight, Bob Jones, was a Conference champion last year but lost his eligibility for this year's meet by playing in the annual East- West football game on New Year's. He was a guard, on the Iniana grid squad. Mythical Title Claimants In last year's national meet Coach Bill Thom's team took one first, two seconds and two thirds, while scoring nine falls to give them claim to the mythical team title, which was not awarded last year. Illinois, whose lone defeat in dual- meet competition was at the hands of Indiana by a 20 to 6 score, will 'bring Pete Pakutinsky, conference winner at 118 lbs., Adams at 126 lbs., and Barney Cosneck, the heavy- weight champion. Pakutinsky, a sophomore, came through to defeat Howard Bush, the Indiana star in the Conference finals while Adams disposed of Probst of Minnesota in the finals. Cosneck de- feated O'Leary of Iowa in the finals. Eighteen Events On Open House Sport Program The sixth annual Open House at the Intramural Building takes place on Wednesday, March 21.

Childs Ruffs First Butler Time Chi Psi Puck Team Takes ockey Title The Chi Psi Red Wings annexed the inter-fraternity hockey title yes- terday afternoon in the Varsity Arena when Bub Brien, fleet Chi Psi forward, took Pillenger's rebound off Goalie Reed's pads and golfed a terrific drive into the far corner of the Lambda Chi Alpha net. The score came in 4:49 of the first over- time period and brought to an end a hundred minutes of scoreless hock- ey played in a two-game series to determine the fraternity champion. Star Forwards The Chi Psi forward line of Muz- zy, Pillinger, and Brien was at top form and proved to be the margin of victory for the State Street lads with their fast skating and clever passing attack. Ralph Whisler and Chuck Kocsis were the chief Lamb- da Chi offensive threats and brought down the rather sizeable crowd sev- eral times with vicious sallies at the Chi Psi goal. Goalie Curt Matthews however, with the aid of Johnny Lillie and Fred Mitchell, was able to turn back all these scoring attempts, and played an excellent game between the posts to shut out Lambda Chi. Three scoreless periods and almost all of the first overtime period were played, when Pillinger, Chi Psi wing- man, stick handled his way through the Lambda Chi defense and almost knocked Goalie Reed down with a blazing shot from close in. Brien, Pillinger's running mate on the other wing, dashed in and, picking up the rebound off Reed's pads, golfed a hard drive into the far corner of the Lambda Chi net which Reed had no chance to save.
