Cut As Thomas Leaves
For National Meet
Coincident with the announcementc
yesterday that one of the features ofI
tomorrow night's Intramural Open
House will be the wrestling match be-
tween the Varsity and freshmant
squads came Coach Cliff Keen's list
of Varsity award winners for the sea-
son concluded last week-end.
Six letters and six sets of Varsity
numerals will be awarded. Besides
Capt. Wally Heavenrich, those win-
ning letters are Harry Wright, Paul
Cameron, Earl Thomas, John Speich-
er and Bill Lowell. The numeral
winners include Arnold Gross, Ed
Kellman, Jim Lincoln, Louis Mas-
curuskus, Stan Schuman and Wen-
dall Taylor.
In tomorrow night's meet, the Var-
sity will be weakened by the loss of
Thomas who will leave during the
day with Coach Keen for the Nation-
al Collegiate meet at Lexington, Va.,
the home of Washington and Lee.
Thomas earned the trip to the Na-
tionals by his fine showing in the
Big Ten meet at Iowa last week-end.
He placed second to Bob Larson of
Iowa, the defending titleholder, in'
the 135-pound class, losing by a 1:20
time advantage. Larson, incidental-
ly, was awarded the prize which goes
to the man selected as the finest for
any weight.
Michigan's seven points which gave
the Wolverines fifth place in the meet
were garnered by Cameron, who
placed third in the 126-pound divi-
sion and scored a fall in one of the
preliminaries. Thomas, and Tiny
Wright, who placed third in his
class and gained a first-round fall.
Speicher in the 118-pound class and
Capt. Wally Heavenrich in the 145-
pound division both placed fourth.
The All-Campus meet which was
scheduled for the night of Open
House has been postponed until next
week to make room for the grudge
match between the Varsity and the
freshmen, for such it has turned out
to be.
The probable lineups for the two
squads are as follows:
Varsity:
118-pounds: Speicher
126-pounds: Cameron or Kellman
135-pounds: Taylor or Cameron
145-pounds: Captain Heavenrich
155-pounds: Gross or Mascuruskus
165-pounds: Lowell
175-pounds: Schumann
Heavyweight: Wright.
Freshmen:
118-pounds: Schwader or Rosen
126-pounds: Brubaker
135-pounds: (Undecided)
145-pounds: Slutsky
155-pounds: Danner
165-pounds: Morgan
175-pounds: Tasch
Heavyweight: Jordan.
Chi Psi To Meet DKE

silon tomorrow night for the cham-
pionship of the Inter-fraternity

DON SEATON, Illinois track coach,
was recalling his prediction of the
outcome of the Conference trackI
meet. "Sure I said Indiana looked
stronger on paper," he said, "but
didn't I say it would be close? And{
when it's close you pick Michigan!"
That's the story of Michigan's
and Charlie Hoyt's seven Big Ten
track championships in eleven at-
tempts. One might add endless
stories of courage on the track,
but it would be unnecessary. They
are all implicit in Seaton's off-
hand tribute.
Nothing succeeds like success and
it applies in track as well as in any
field. When Sam Stoller ran his
semi-final heat of the 60-yard dash
in the world's record time of 6.1 sec-
onds in the Conference track meet,
Michigan supporters saw a glimmer;
of hope. For they saw in that per-
formance an omen of success. They
knew that, in reality, there was noth-
ing which could set a team goingr
with so much force as a performance
like that. And it did.
Stoller, the "Crooning Cannon-
ball," got far more kick out, of
newspaper mention that he was
studying radio broadcasting here
than mention of his record time.

their teams?
Members of The Daily sports
staff believe they do.
More than 500 telephone calls
were received in The Daily of-

Big Ten track meet at Chicago
and after the Conference swim-
ming and wrestling meets. A run-
ning summary of the track meet
was made available by The Daily
as well as immediate returns from
the other meets.

Michigan's defeat at the hands of
Iowa in the Big Ten swimming meet
Saturday night has caused much com-
ment during the past two days, but
no definite satisfactory explanation
as to the cause of the suprise can or
probably ever will be offered other
than the fact thatbthe Wolverines
were beaten by a team that on this
night was the better one of the two.
To defeat a team that could and
did place men in every event in the
finals, Coach Matt Mann's swimmers
would have had to turn in perform-
ances ranking with their best of the
year. As it was the Wolverines fell
from their peak in every event but
the breast-stroke, medley relay and
possibly the 440-yard free-style. The
result in the point total was harmful
enough to give Iowa a two-point mar-
gin of victory.
Mann Has No Alibi
But Coach Mann has no alibi for
the surprisingly disappointing show-
ing of his team in general. His only
comment when the dejected group
gathered in the lounge car of the re-
turning train after the meet was:
"We'll be back." (And there is
plenty behind that statement.)
The debacle started Friday night
when not a single Michigan sprinter
qualified for the finals. Ed Drew's
time of :55.2 missed the select six by
one-tenth of a second in the 100. Bob
Mowerson had been counted on as a
sure place-winner in the century, but
could not get started. His perform-
ances in the sprint and medley re-
lays, however, were two of the few
bright showings made by the Wol-
verines Saturday night.
Jim Patterson of Ohio State was
unbeatable in the diving finals. Capt.
Frank Fehsenfeld's one.or two lapses
to but average dives were enough to
give the Buckeye who "hit" every
dive a six-point margin.
Kasely Draws Praise
Jack Kasley's performance in the
breast-stroke Friday night in setting
a world's record brought down the
house. The husky junior's effortless
"butterfly" stroke was the object of
admiration of friend and foe alike.
Jack was kept busy for quite a while
after his record-breaking race by a
battery of camermen.
Saturday night he wisely saved for
the breast-stroke leg of the medley
relay and breezed in to victory in the
200-yard event in the still fine time
of 2:28.8.
Second place in the back-stroke was
a heart-breaker for Harry Rieke to
lose. Dick Westerfield's margin over
the Michigan sophomore was a fast-
er movement of the arm backward on
the last "touch."
The prize "hard luck" story of the
meet belongs to Paul Vernor, lone
Purdue entry and the annual "un-
known" of this year's championships.
Leading Ray Walters of Iowa at the
40-yard mark of the free-style 50,
Vernor became entangled with one
of the ropes marking off the lanes and
finished in tie for third and fourth.

By IRVIN LISAGOR
Kim Williams succeeded in rating
some commendable grades last semes-
ter, but his scholastic zeal led in-
directly to his shelving for the sea-
son, for the ailing Varsity baseball
catcher will not be available for com-
petition this season, it has been defi-
nitely learned.
Williams has been confined to the
University hospital suffering from an
ulcerated colon, a slow healing af-
flictment which has kept him in bed
for several weeeks now. The youth's
father, Mr. T. W. Williams, who
came from his home in Katonah, N.
Y. to be with his ailing son, stated
yesterday that Kim's condition will
necessitate his remaining in the hos-
pital for at least two more weeks. In
such an event, it is hardly likely that
young Williams will return to school,
this semester.
The star backstop's loss deals a se-
vere setback to the Wolverine nine.
Coach Fisher was depending on Wil-
liams to assume again the bulk of
receiving duties. Last year, Kim was
the only Michigan player to hit .300,
and with a year's experience under
his belt, he was expected to greatly
increase local fortunes in the Confer-
ence race.
Williams was aware of abdominal
disturbances before the last semes-
ter ended, but in his zeal to finish the
finals so that he would be eligible for
baseball, he neglected the condition.
Had he sought medical attention
earlier, he might possibly have re-
covered in time to play this season.
However, he will be back in the
mix next season, being only a junior
now.
