Backstroke; Kasley Leads 200-Yd. Breaststrokers Four Are Alumni Championship Medley And Sprint Relay Teams Are Rated Number One Eleven members of Michigan's 1934-35 swimming team, National and Big Ten champions, were award- ed places on the National Collegiate Athletic Association's All-American team for the past year, it was re- vealed yesterday. Four of those honored, Bob Renner, Ogden Dalrymple, Tex Robertson and Taylor Drysdale, have completed their collegiate careers, while the other seven Capt. Frank Fehsenfeld, Der Johnston, Ben Grady, Ned Dief- endorf, Jack Kasley, Fred Cody and Frank Barnard are back this year. Robertson, Drysdale, Dalrymple, Renner, Johnston and Fehsenfeld are repeaters from the previous year's team, with Drysdale, Dalrymple and Renner being selected for the third time. The remainder of the list hon- ored this year had their first taste of collegiate competition last season. Bryant Among Chosen Few Baker Bryant, formerly of Ohio State but now a member of Coach Matt Mann's first-year squad, is also among the chosen few. Drysdale in the backstroke, Kasley in the breaststroke and the Michigan medley and sprint relay teams were awarded first position in their events. All are National Collegiate titlehold- ers. The medley trio was composed of Dalrymple, Drysdale, and Kasley, while Robertson, Renner, Drysdale and Dalrymple made up the sprint quartet. Robertson was placed third in the 220-yard freestyle and fourth in the quarter mile. Dalrymple earned the third spot in the century sprint and eighth in the 50-yard event. Fehsenfeld Nosed Out His performances in the National meet at Boston earned Barnard fourth place in the 1500-meter and 220-yard freestyle races and the sixth position in the quarter-mile. One of the biggest surprises on the selections was the placing of Capt. Fehsenfeld in second place among the divers behind Bill Busby of Iowa. The two Big Ten rivals met three times last year, Busby sneaking out a de- cision in the Conference champion- ships and Fehsenfeld coming out as National Collegiate champion in the high- and low-board events at Bos- ton. Lost By Hair-Breadth Edward Kennedy, Columbia coach, who makes the selections for the N.C.A.A., writes that the selection of the best diver was perhaps the most difficult to make, but after much conferring with judges and officials gives Busby "a hair-breadth's edge" over the Wolverine leader. In view of the record of competition between the two performers, his choice seems a little off-color. Another doubtfuul choice puts Cody in fourth place in the backstroke behind Drysdale, Charlie Salie of Ohio State and Jack Westerfield of Iowa. Cody lost to Salie at Colum- bus just after an illness, but de- feated him while taking third in the Nationals and second in the Confer- ence meet. Salie failed to place in the latter meet. Michigan's three other varsity div- ers of last season, Grady, Diefendorf, and Johnson followed Fehsenfeld in that order. Michioan Stars Florida Bound On Swim Tour, Sixteen Michigan swimmers, in-" cluding Dick Degener and Taylor Drysdale from Varsity teams of the past, leave at 6 a.m. today by auto for a series of exhibitions in Florida. The list of present Wolverines mak- ing the trip, which will be terminated a few days before classes recommence Jan. 6, includes Capt.

McMaster Drops Varsity Sextet- By 6 To 5 Score Berryman, Heyliger Score Twice; Merrill Tallies In Second Period (Continued from rage 1) playing without the services of Cap- tain Larry David and Johnny Fabello, were hard put to turn back the Ham- ilton club.' The Michigan team came back midway in the period when Heyliger picked up the puck at center ice and laid a pass dead on Merrill's stick which the later converted with a low shot into the far corner. The Concord Flash opened the third period with a beautiful goal. Taking the puck near his own red line, Heyliger rounded the goal, skat- ed the whole length of the ice, out- foxed the McMaster defense and blazed a scorching drive into the near corner before he was cut down by the back-checking Canadian cen- ter. McMaster came back tot tie up the count at four-all a moment later when Apps lured Low out of his goal and flicked the rubber over him in 4:50. Heyliger broke into the clear mid- way in the period and McLaugram tripped him to save a goal. McLoug- ram was sent off to the cooler and Michigan awarded a penalty shot which Heyliger cashed in on when he rifled a bullet like drive that struck Goalie Hutton's stick with such force that it caromed into the net. The Wolverines were tiring how- ever, and goals in quick succession from the sticks of Moore and Apps spelled defeat for Michigan's ex- hausted team.

Union quintet tonight at Alliance, 0.; in the first of its four Christmas vaca- tion tilts which will end the pre- Conference training season. The Varsity, handicapped by the loss of John Gee, first string center, meets Western Reserve at Cleveland tomorrow night and is favored to run up its string of wins to fivej straight withwvictories overtthe two Ohio fives, which, while they have good teams, have not shown enough to down the highly improved Wol- verines. Coach Cappon has named the same five that started against Michigan State last week to take the floor against Mt. Union. It includes John and Earl Townsend, John Jablonski, Capt. ChelsoTamagno, and George Rudness. John Townsend will do the jumping for this five. Homeceming For Townsends Michigan's real test will come in the Butler contest Jan. 2 at the Butler Field House in Indianapolis. The Townsend brothers will be mak- ing their first appearance in their home town since they graduated from Technical High School and both have expressed the belief that a win over the Bulldogs would be the final sign necessary to mark the Varsity as real contenders for the Big Ten cage title. Coach Tony Hinkle is well ac- quaintedawith the Townsend's style and at least their part in the Mich- igan attack will be no surprise to him. The two brothers, on the other hand, are well acquainted with the Butler team, having most of the regulars in high school, as well as Coach Hinkle's style of basketball. Butler has played three games so far, winning only one. However, the Bulldogs are known as slow starters and John and Earl believe that they will be pointing for Michigan. In the opening game and against Pittsburgh last Monday, Roscoe Batts, offensive star, scored seven baskets. He is an expert on push-in shots and should give the rangy Wolverines their first real competition off the backboard. Gee Counted On John Gee is expected to be back in the starting lineup and his great height is counted on to give the Var- sity the winning margin, for the But- ler team is handicapped by lack of a tall center. Armstrong, a rejuvenated guard, will be jumping against Gee. He tops the six-foot three inch mark and is dangerous on push-in shots. Capt. Toy Jones and Ralph Braf- ford fill the guard positions. The fifth man is doubtful. Hinkle has been trying all of his forwards trying to find a running mate for Batts but so far has been unsuccessful. The Wolverines will close their pre- Conference schedule against Toledo University on Jan. 3 at Toledo and will return to Ann Arbor to prepare for the Big Ten opener against In- diana Jan. 6 which will be played at Yost Field House. SMITHS MUST BE GOOD Three Smiths are included in the squad of 22 eastern players who will opposeCoast stars New Year's Day in San Francisco.

By RICHARD LaMARCA Two hitch-hikers from the corn-, fields of Iowa by the names of Earl Thomas and Paul Cameron are the main reasons why wrestling enthu- siasts claim that Michigan is on her way back to the top of the "grunt and groan" heap in the Big Ten. It happened like this. After win- ning the 118-pound N.A.A.U. title two years ago, Earl, brother of Blair Thomas, a former Michigan mat cap- tain, wrote a letter to Coach Keen informing him that he wanted to wrestle but didn't have any money. Keen told Earl that he could help him out and Thomas began "thumbing" his way to Michigan. Keen got Earl a job in the Ford Motor Company where he worked all summer. Without any hesitation Thomas mentioned Cameron's abilities as a wrestler and as a result Cameron took to the highway bound for Michigan. During the summer and early fall Cameron managed to earn enough money at Ford's to register at Mich- Keen Selects Starting Team For N.Y. Meet Capt. Heavenrich To Lead Wrestlers In Season's Opener Jan. 3 Three of the letter winners on last year's wrestling squad', including; Captain Walter Heavenrich, were named among the eight grapplers to compete in the season's opener to be held Jan. 3 against the New York Ath- letic Club at New York, according to the lineup announced yesterday by Coach Cliff Keen. The team will leave for New York from Ann Arbor at 7:00 a.m., Jan. 1. The wrestlers picked to make the trip and the weights in which they are entered are as follows: 118-lbs., Edward Kellman; 126-lbs., Allen Rub- in; 135-lbs., Earl Thomas; 145-lbs., Captain Walter Heavenrich; 155-lbs., Louis Mascuruskus; 165-lbs., Frank Bissell; 175-lbs., William Lowell, and heavyweight, Harry Wright. When asked about the prospects of a successful season, Coach Keen an- swered, "We're going to have a fair team. There is a possibility that some of the boys have a chance of im- proving with steady practice. I real- ly don't think the boys are ready for a meet." Undefeated in eight dual meet matches while wrestling in the 135- pound division, Heavenrich has been shifted to the 145-pound bracket to make room for Earl Thomas, winner of the 118-pound N.A.A.U. champion- ship in 1934. Heavenrich is expected to lead the team again this year. Frank Bissell, Varsity guard, who is wrestling in the 165-pound class for the second consecutive year, will probably be able to better his last year's record of five victories in eight bouts. Harry Wright, heavyweight, will bolster the team's strength after missing a letter last year because of scholastic difficulties. C 0 A L PLAN LARGEST STADIUM The greatest sports stadium in the world is planned at Flushing, N. Y. The minimum seating capacity will be 127,000 for football and baseball and as much as 200,000 for boxing. igan at the beginning of the second semester. Therefore Cameron will not be eligible for competition until next semester. However all of the Big Ten meets are scheduled for the second semester. Cameron won the 115 and 95-pound Iowa state high school titles in 1931 and 1935 respec- tively. He gained his freshman nu- merals at Iowa State College. Thomas wrestles at 135 pounds, while Cameron plans to enter the 126- pound class. SPECIAL CHRISTMAS BRICKS SANTA CLAUS CENTER XMAS TREE CENTER BELL CENTER NESSELRODE PUDDING BLUE RIBBON COAL CO.
