In the absence of Alan Smith who will not see action Thurs- day due to illness, the brunt of the sprint chores will fall to Big Bill Watson, Norm Purucker, and one or Ithe other of the Culver twins (the , two guys there ain't but one of). Watson will be the best Mich;an bet but that will be none too good. While Big Bill will probably shatter his own 50 fet 5 inch Field House rec- ord in the shot, he is hard pressed to better 6.5 seconds for the 60 and Greer is capable of 6.3 without a deep breath. ALTES THE BEER IN THE GREI Swimmers Bulldogs (Continued from Page 1) Capt. Kirar and Walt Tomski are al- most certain to wind up on top in tbe sprint races and Tom Haynie can be relied on for the distance grinds. Bill Farnsworth and Ed Hutchens, already tabbed the "iron man" of the team, are also expected to show up well in the sprint events. The meet is a "natural" and the eyes of all swim followers will be fo- cused on the outcome of the clash to- night.

The Illini ace has a record of 108 points in the seven games that his- team has played. This total is only 131 better than second place Ben Steph- ens of Iowa. However, Dehner missed; the Purdue-Illinois fracas a week ago! due to ineligiblity. ,Jewell Young, last year leader and present Conference record holder is only in fifth place. But figured on a basis of averages he is in second with 12.3 points per game. Jake Townsend, Michigan's lone representative in the top ranks this year, is in eighth position, with 76 markers and a seven game average of 10.9 points. Strong point in his fight for scoring honors is his ability from the charity toss line, as was proven Monday night against Iowa. THE BIG TEN'S BIG TEN Including games of Feb. 14. b f p t gp av.

Weber. has proven himself to be the greatest potential winner so far by virtue of his clean slate this season. Co-captains John Speicher at 118! pounds and Earl Thomas in the 135 pound division are counted on as al- most sure winners in their respective weight classes. So far this season Speicher has a perfect record win- ning all his matches by pins. Today Michigan is a poor fourth and the reason a strange one. Bill Barclay's injury cer- tainly didn't help, but it should not have portended an ultimate f:asco. It seems that Capt. Jake Townsend can't work his pivot magie because of a total lack of maneuvering underneath the basket. And when a defense drops back to handcuff Jake, the Var- sity offense goes blooey. One remedy which Coach Cappot has unsuccess fully sought all season is a rmn who can stand a few feet beyond the free thr'ow circle and pop them in with fair consistency. That would draw opposing defenses out and relieve the congestion around Jake. As yet no' sharpshooter has appeared. Ed Thomas, Leo Beebe, Hfer m Fishmanm, Charley Pink and Russ Dobson have tried in turn, to no avail. Dobson, in practice, gets hot- ter than a blue flame, but lacks that fire and assurance in a game.
