TUESDAY, JAN. 5, 1937 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE SEVEN PAGE SEVEN Wolverine Athletic Record Shows Definite Slump For 1936 Varsity Teams End With Low .618 Average Football, Tennis, Hockey Send Percentage Down; Gain Diamond Title By CARL GERSTACKER Although Coach Ray Fisher's base- ball team brought home the Big Ten championship and Michigan's swim- mers prolonged their undefeated dual meet record as well as winning the National Collegiate title, Wolverine teams as a whole had a bad time of it during 1936 and ended the year with a .618 percentage in games won and lost. Football, tennis and hockey turned in the worst dual meet records as the year's average fell fr below the .669 of last year and eight points below 1934's depression in Michigan sports prowess. Retain Two Titles Wolverine athletes retained their Big Ten titles in golf and indoor track, but Were unable to remain in top position in outdoor track, swim- ming and hockey. Coach Matt Mann's natators topped all sports with a per- fect won and lost record in dual ,meets and annexed their third con- secutive national collegiate title. Iowa's swimmers spoiled a perfect record for the Maize and Blue when they forced Michigan to be content with a second place in the Confer- ence meet after Matt Mann's prot- eges had nosed them out in the only dual meet between the two teams. Johnny Fl sefer's unerring putter was sorely missed as the Wolverine golfers dropped to fourth place in the national meet and lost one dual engagement to Louisiana - State's strong aggregation. John Townsend led the renaissance in Mchigan basketball which brought the cagers from eighth to fourth place among Maize and Blue teams and resulted in a record of 15 games won and five lost for the season. Netters About-Face Coach John Johnstone's netters went a long way toward squaring accounts when they finished third in the Big Ten meet after a disas- trous dual meet season. The year constituted a complete about face for the tennis players who usually boast a good dual meet record and then finish poorly in the Conference tour- nament. The Wolverine gridders, who man- aged to break even in eight games in 1935, fell to last place as they managed to win only one game--the one with Columbia's Lions-and failed to win a Big Ten game for the second time in the last three seasons. Howeve', with the cagers looming as possible Conference champions and Coach Cliff Keen's wrestlers greatly improved over last year, the prospects for 1937 are - considerably brighter. The football team loses only three veteran regulars by grad- uation; Coach Charley Hoyt's track team seems to have the needed bal- ance; Coach Mann has a fine. new group of free stylers; and the tennis team has all but two of its letter- men back. Baseball and golf are as vet uncertain quantities and the hockey team seems due for another bad season.

Manero went behind for the first time on the 12th hole and stayed there until the end.
