'EIMDA, IEB UArtY 28, 1935 THE MICHIGAN DAILY' ItAGE THREE Swimmers Toj Meet Buckeyes At Columbus Ohio State Natators Lack Concentrated Strength; Have Individual Stars MichiganConfident Woodford, A Sophomore, Dangerous In . Distance Events The Buckeyes of Ohio State, a squad sprinkled with individual stars but lacking concentrated t e a m strength, will attempt to halt Mich- igan's drive for an undefeated sea- son when the Wolverine tankmen in- vade Columbus Saturday night. Coached by the veteran Mike Peppe, the Ohioans have never been a power in Conference swimming circles, win- ning two seconds and a fourth place1 in the Big Ten meet last spring, but the addition of several outstanding performers from the freshman ranks of last year should make them much stronger this season. The Buckeyes have defeated Cincinnati, Purdue, and Pittsburgh to date. Woodford Is Versatile Dexter Woodford, sophomore dis- tance man, heads the list of new stars on the Buckeye roster. Compet- ing unattached as a freshman, Wood- ford finished a close second to Jack Medica in the 500-yard free-style event in the National A.A.U. senior indoor championships. The Ohio sophomore also won the mile event and was second in the half-mile in the junior outdoor cham- pionships, and finished third and fourth respectively in the 440-yard and mile races in the senior outdoor meet. Rated close behind Woodford is Baker Bryant, sophomore sprinter. Bryant's times of :53.4 and 2:18.2 in the 100-meter and 220-yard events in the National A.A.U. senior indoor meet were good enough to give him fifth places in these races in very close races. In the latter event, Bryant fin- ished almost in a dead heat with Tay- lor Drysdale, present co-captain of the Wolverines. Salie To Extend Drysdale Charlie Salie is still another soph- omore who should make it very un- comfortable for Drysdale and Fred Cody in the 150-yard backstroke. Salie finished two feet behind Drys- dale to take third place in the race in which Al Vande Weghe established a new world's record of 1:36.9 last spring in the National A.A.U. meet. Jim Williams and Ray Kessler round out the list of new men who are playing a promient part in Coach Peppe's plans for a successful 1935 season. Both are sprinters, Kessler defeating Frank Barnard and Jack Kasley of the Wolverines to win the 220-yard free-style in the National A.A.U. junior indoor championships last March. Kasley Is Favored Captain George Colville and Russ Kirbert are the Buckeyebreaststroke hopes. Colville finished second in the Conference meet last season, bu should not extend Kasley Saturday night. Supporting Salie in the backstroke are George Riebel and letterman Harry Volk. Woodford has the veteran Dick Figley to help him in the dis- tances. The veterans Boyd Graham and Fred Walton together with sophomore Harry Kallman handle the diving. Graham and Kallman placed in th National A.A.U. junior indoor low- board championships last spring. FISHER CALLS CANDIDATES Coach Ray Fisherbhas issued a call for all Varsity baseball can- didates to report in the Field House any aftrenoon this week. Upon reporting, the men ard to sign up and list their last after- noqp class to enable Coach Fisher to draw up a batting practice schedule. Batting practice will begin in the cages next Monday, March 4.

The real basis for all com- ations of this sort has been the res arrived at by Finnish statis- ans and physicists who compiled new decathlon scoring table to be d in the 1936 Olympics. The new ndards were drawn up through' of energy, expectancy, and fa- e graphs and application of hematical laws dealing with siological compensation. The idea, we see, is to imagine the best- I start quickly, and have speed enough for a 9.4 second hundred, and the nth degree of balance, coordination and endurance. Such a man, Doherty said, could do all sorts of unpredict- able things with existing records for the pole vault, hurdles, sprints, and middle distances and would be no slouch in the other jumps, weight events, and distances. Anyone enumerating the unknown factors can readily see that any "per- fect" times or distances are ludicrous' in the face of past achievements. Our track stars of today are highly-spe- cialized machines which appear to be near-perfect, but a eugenically bred super-star may be just around the corner. Another possibility is that the men best equipped to set track marks are not competing today. Most of our athletes are drawn from the members of the middle and upper classes who In the series played at Houghton two weeks ago. both teams split even. Tech took the first game, 2 to 1, and 1 Michigan won the second, 3 to 2. Due to the unprecedented size of} the crowd seeking admission for the1 Minnesota game last week-end, Coach Eddie Lowrey has planned an ad- vance sale of tickets for the Techa series. They will go on sale today, and holders will receive first consid- eration for the impending series.

It, as the last column shows, is equivalent to running the hundred in 9.27. In 1884, however, it is apparent that runners hadn't sufficient endur- ance to run the full 220 at top speed. While they could run the hundred in 10 seconds they couldn't maintain that pace for 220 yards, even with the minimizing effect the longer dis- tance has on time lost at the start. If,''then, it is logical to believe that the limit of speed-endurance has been raised from something under 220 yards to 300 yards, there is no ap- parent reason by there shouldn't ap- pear some day a sprinter with stam- ina enough to sprint 440 yards at 100-yard speed, who will set a record close to 41 seconds.

When and if education extends its scope to other classes there is a strong possibility that there will come forth a brawny coal miner or quarry worker capable of tossing the shot well over 60 feet and slamming the javelin a hundred yards or more. No one can predict what combina- tion of endurance and speed the fu- ture man is likely to possess. We can best demonstrate our point by a comparison of sprint and middle distance records made in 1884 and 1934. Experts today agree that the great- est distance man can run at top speed is approximately 300 yards.
