WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 15, 1936 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Yearling Natators Slight Favorites Experience Of Regulars May Decide Winner Closest Meet Of Year Is Expected As Champions Put Record At Stake The shadow of defeat, ignoble at its best, hovers over Michigan's Var- sity swimming team as it prepares to take to the water of the Intramural pool for tonight's dual meet with the freshman squad. The yearlings have been installed as slight favorites after turning in some extraordinary times in prac- tice last night, but the Varsity men are depending upon their greater ex- perience in competitive swimming to pull them through to victory. No matter what the outcome of the clash that is scheduled to start at 7:30, it promises to be one of the most closely contested affairs of the nation's swimming world this sea- son. Should Coach Matt Mann's Na- tional Collegiate champions go down to defeat, it will be the first suffered in the local pool since 1928 when Northwestern conquered the Wolver- ines by virtue of points gained from the disqualification of Michigan's medley team in the last event for "stealing." Certain Events Conceded Both teams are conceding certain events to their opponents and are prepared to figth tooth and nail for other points that will decide the meet. The Varsity is given first in the med- ley relay, and first and second in the diving and breast-stroke, while the first-year natators under Coach Taylor Drysdale expect to clean up in the free-style events. The Varsity, however, has its own ideas about sneaging in for firsts in the sprint relay and one or two other free-style events. Frank Barnard has conceded no one of the yearlings two firsts in the 220 and 440-yard races, and Bob Mowerson may frustrate the freshmen's efforts in the 100. Tom Hayne, Dave Holmes, Baker Bryant and Ed Kent will form Coach Drysdale's distance crew opposing Barnard, who will be seconded by Jack Kasley in the quarter. Mower- son will have to overcome such stal- warts as Ed Kirar, Walt Tomski, Bob Emmett, Bryant and Holmes in the sprints. McCarty May Surprise Supporting Mowerson in the short events for the regulars will be Mark McCarty, who may surprise the year- lings, Paul Keeler, Ed Drew, Dick Blake and Manley Osgood. The backstroke promises to be one of the closest races on the program, with Fred Cody swimming for the Varsity against Haynie. Harry Reicke of Coach Mann's squad should take third from freshman Fred Robinson. Capt. Frank Fehsenfeld and Ned Diefendorf will dive against Jerry Newhouse, while Der Johnston and Ben Grady will also perform off the spring board without being judged. Assisting Kasley in the breast- stroke will be Ed Vandervelde. The first-year squad is offering Jack Bohn and Bob Hartwell in this event. Prof. Charles Fries will.referee and Coach Mann will be the starter, as- suring championship conditions from the sidelines. Admission for the meet will be 25 cents straight.

I-M Sports Michioan Six Entrains Today For Minnesota, Wolverine's Small Sextet Hopes For Split With GophersIn Series Headed by Captain Larry David, a nine-man Michigan hockey team will leave for Minneapolis at 5:17 p.m. today to engage Coach Larry Arm- strong's rampant Minnesota Gophers in a two-game series Thursday and Friday nights. Coach Eddie Lowrey put his charges through a final workout on the Coliseum ice last night and spent a major portion of the time drilling Goalie Irving Shalek on all manner of long and short shots. Lowrey plans to shoot the works in the opening game and then hope for the best Friday night. Minne- sota regularly makes use of nine, ten and even more reserves, while the Michigan team will have to depend upon the stamina of their starting six and three reserves. "If we can gain a split or even a tie I'll be satisfied" Lowrey said last night, and the spirit of the small team seemed to be, "we can take at least one." The team will arrive in Minneap- olis Thursday morning in time to go through a light workout in the Arena, the largest indoor rink ii the world, before the first game, Thursday night. The players who are making the trip include David, Vic Heyliger, Dick Berryman, Bert Smith, Jack Merrill, Irving Shalek, Bob. Simp- son, Johnny Fabello, and Dick Griggs. George Graves, team manager, and Coach Eddie Lowrey will complete the roster for the northern invasion. received at the office of the Intra- mural Sports Building until Satur- day evening, Extra Berths Required For Michigan 'Goliaths' Everytime the Varsity cagers go on a trip there is an increase in the institution's athletic expenses. It seems that the Pullman com- pany always has to make over its sleepers to accommodate the two Townsend brothers and John Gee, all of whom are too tall for the ordinary berth. Arrangements force the train officials to remove the partition between two sections so that sleeping may be made eas- ier for the three Wolverine "Go- liaths." Much to the dismay of the athletic department and Pull- man company, Michigan will travel to Minneapolis Jan. 25. Matmen Leave Today For Final Eastern Jaunt With the exception of Ed Kellman, Allan Rubin, and Frank Bissell, who was unable to compete in the New York meet when he contracted a touch of influenza, the same team that defeated the New York Athletic Club, 17-13, was selected by Coach Cliff Keen to oppose Franklin and Marshall and Penn State this coming weekend, and leaves at 1 p.m. today. The grapplers named to make the trip and their respective weights are as follows: 118-pounds, John Spei- cher; 126-pounds, Malcom Marks and Ed Slocum; 135-pounds, Earl Tho- mas; 145-pounds, Captain Walter Heavenrich; 155-pounds, Louis Mas- curuskus; 165-pounds, Frank Bissell; 175-pounds, Bill Lowell, and heavy- weight, Harry "Tiny" Wright. The return of Bissell to the Varsity lineup will undoubtedly strengthen the Wolverine's attack and raise their hopes for a grand slam in the East. Marks and Slocum wrestled to such a close draw in an elimination match that Keen decided to take both of them. The tennis annual tourney All-Campus indoor will begin Saturday morning with 16 first-round matches scheduled to be played off. Bob An- derson, last year's winner, has left school so the race for the title is wide open. The members of the freshman squad are given a good chance to product the champion from its ranks. Entries will be accepted at the office of the Intramural Build- ing until Friday evening. Faculty members will get a chance to display their talents next week when play in the annual faculty hindball doubles tourney begins. Thielke and A. H. Smith are return- ing to defend the crown which they captured last year.
