Some Trouble Ahead -...-
DESPITE PUBLISHED reports to
the contrary, Michigan's swim-
ming team will not win the National
Collegiate Championships as easily as
it won the Big Ten meet last Satur-
day. Hal Ulen has brought eastern
Intercollegiate swimming out of the
doldrums with a Harvard squad that
will cause Matt Mann plenty of grief
now that the Cambridge outfit and
its victimized Yale brothers have de-
cieded to come West. Take a medley
team that can break three minutes,
the best diver in the East, one of
the five fastest back-strokers in col-
lege, a breast-stroker with times
slower only than those of Jack Kas-
ley and Johnny Higgins, a couple of
surprising sprinters-add all these to
Charlie Hutter, and you have a team
second only to Michigan in balance
and individual stars. Michigan will
win but there will be plenty of smoke
raised.

THE HARVARD-YALE swimming
meet was one of those meets that
are won on paper, and they are say-
ing Bob Kiputh of the Eli erred. The
veteran Olympic coach sent John
Macionis into the breast-stroke
against Charlie Pameson, a 2:25 man.
The best Macionis has ever done in
the event is 2:28. Jameson won and
Macionis was not able to swim at
his favorite distance, the quarter
mile. Peter Brueckel of Yale won the
quarter, but Macionis was not there
to take second. Charlie Hutter coast-
ed in second for Harvard and the
raeet was won. Harvard supporters
jumped into the pool with their
clothes on and Varsity stars of other
sports led the 2,500 partisan Cam-
bridge rooters in yells that delayed
the swimming of the last event 15
:minutes. Yale's dual-meet winning
streak had been broken at 163.

BEHIND the headlines for the win-
ners in the Conference Track
championships there are some stories
that never get into the newspapers.
Bob Osgood, nominally a, hurdler, un-
officially broke the world's indoor
record for the 440 when Michigan
won the mile relay at Chicago Satur-
day night. From a running start
Captain Bob was clocked at :48.2. The
world mark for, the distance is :48.9.
Anchorman Stan Birleson, who fol-
lowed Osgood did :48.6. Clayt Brels-
ford made the best time of his career
in the mile in the Championships,
4:16.3. But fate had it that he
should finish only fifth. Bill Wat-
son got into the newspapers because
he became the first Conference man
to put the shot over 50 feet, but he
gained the praise of those who know
because he proved a good competitor
under great pressure. He played safe
on his first try and came through
with a modest effort under 49 feet.
With a victory cinched, he turned his
attention to breaking the record. Alan
Smith was another sophomore who
showed he will not have "finalitis."
Watch him in the 100 this spring.

BILL REED, my predecessor as con-
ductor of this column, pulled his
favorite type of practical joke last
week-end ,And gave Wally Wilber,
manager of the Conference Wrestling
Championships, and Mill Marsh of
the Ann Arbor Daily News a very
hectic afternoon. Bill called Wally
supposedly from Coldwater and said
the Indiana wrestling team had been
in a bad automobile accident. Heavy-
weight Bob Haak had suffered a
broken leg and Coach Bill Thom had
started back to Bloomington with the
rest of his charges. Wally spent over
an hour checking all the hospitals' in
Southwestern Michigan, and he got
the likewise gullible Mill to call all
the newspapers in that district. The
two were a couple of chagrined and
embarrassed gentlemen when the
truth was out.
Fisher Drills Nine
For Southern Trip
Yost Field House looked more like
a baseball field yesterday with the
basketball floor removed, and Coach
Ray Fisher's squad swelled to full
strength by the addition of pitcher
Burt Smith and outfielder Vic Hey-
liger. The players went through the
hitting drills with a lot of pep in an-
ticipation of berths on the squad that
will make the southern trip during
the spring vacation.
Coach Fisher has cut five men from
the squad and will be forced to cut
seven more in the next few days since
the nets will accommodate only 18
batters and the squad now numbers
25 excluding the pitchers. Fisher is
hoping for an early spring so that
he will be able to get his unwieldly
squad outdoors.
The Varsity has added another
