A TOUCH of laryngitis, the reces-
sion and staff considerations
combined to prevent this corner from
its Chicago hearth,dand the several
Conference meets during the past
week-end. But in the octopus man-
ner, we had tentacles on the scene-
and last night found our drawer bulg-
ing with aside lines ... .
Preparation to launch this
piece with Caesar's Gallic salu-
tation, "Veni, Vidi, Vici," went
for naught when the swimming
results came across the wire to
barely make a deadline. But
neither Matt Mann nor Wolver-
ine partisans expected Kirar,
Haynie et al, to defeat Mike
Peppe's powerful Ohio State
squad, which twice defeated
Michigan in dual meets this sea-
son. Two Big Ten champion-
ships out of three is enough any-
how to put the quietus on those
inclined to chide us for that
"Champions of the West" line in
the victory chant. If Fritz Crisler
can perform a Betsey Ross on the
bedraggled football pennant,
Michigan's stock, and that of Di-
rector Yost's cigar maker, will
rise accordingly.
Charley Hoyt didn't, of course,
reckon with the amazing collapse of
Indiana's middle distance and dis-
tance strength, but with character-
istic lack of verbal display, he knew
his squad had enough balance and
well-distributed power back of the
tape-breakers to win. Consider that
13 Michigan men contributed to the
Wolverine point total, only two of
them gaining firsts. Ohio State and
Iowa each boasted seven point-get-
ters, while Wisconsin and Indiana
had five. Wisconsin, the runner-up,
had four first places.
Cliff Keen, unable to under-
stand the widespread lack of
campus interest in wrestling,
must feel compensated for the
Daily's laxity in publicizing his
sport. A Conference title is some-
thing to work on ...
Peppe Gets A Duck...
Ohio State's swimming champion-
ship was the first it has ever attained,
brought on a spasm of jubilation
which resulted in the Buckeye. mer-
men hurling their mite mentor, Mike
Peppe into the pool, clothes and all.
Peppe good-naturedly obliged with a
comical exhibition that delighted on-
lookers no end' ... Indiana, Chicago
and Purdue failed to place a man in
the finals. . Capt. Ed Kirar climaxed
a brililant career in Big Ten circles
with the only individual record-
breaking feats of the entire festivi-
ties, departed from the tank owner
of new marks in both the 50-and 100-
yard races with a :52.8 and :23.3
time respectively . . . Ovation given
Kirar and Coach Mann before the
meet started seemed louder than any
other, according to our unbiased in-
former . . . Kirar and Haynie were
the only double winners, both re-
tained titles they won in '37 ...
LACHRYMOS NOTE
Dick Squire, phio half -miler
who failed to qualify in his fa,
vored event, found himself a
bench after the race and released
his inhibitions with copious tears
. .. Michigan's Harold Davidson,
who almost qualified in the 880
but fell short, approached the
mourning Buckeye and barked:
"Move over, Squire, I want to sit
down and cry with you.. ."
Norm Purucker, forced into
several wagers by this depart-
ment's revelation that he was
taking 3 to 1 that he'd gain a
point in the sprints, refused to
rationalize his failure to qualify
for the finals ...Said Purucker
of his rivals: "They ran like
hell. What could I do?".
PATERNAL RIB
After Gib James had missed about
five sizzling shots in Saturday night's
hockey game against Paris, he re-
turned to the bench, where his fath-
er, W. E. James-who drove from Ot-
tawa to watch Gib and Spike in ac-
tion-handed him a pair of eyeglasses
. And Gib is now wondering if his
father wasn't having his little joke . .

Coaches Hoyt And Fisher

Spring Dual Role
Elmer Gedeon. Michigan's pheno-
menal hurdler, yesterday decided to
combine outdoor track with baseball
this Spring, after consulting with
Coaches Charley Hoyt and Ray
Fisher.
Gedeon 'sdecision solves a dilemma
which has harried him for several
weeks, and which, because of its im-
portance in his athletic scheme, had
provoked more than a little campus
interest.
A few weeks ago, the blonde Cleve-
land junior definitely committed him-
self to baseball, a sport in which
he harbors professional aspirations.
But his hurdling successes, increasing-
ly brilliant in every indoor engage-
ment, aroused doubts in his mind
as to whether he was pursuing the
proper course.
Consequently Gedeon devised a
spring program whereby he might

Big Ten Wrestling Crown
Is First Since 1929
By NEWELL McCABE
The atmosphere has changed. Up
in the second story loft, where Coach
Cliff Keen and his Wolverine wrest-
lers have been working since last fall,
the tense feeling that prevailed since
their intial defeat by the Hoosiers
has been alleviated.
Last Saturday night the Michigan
matmen won the Conference titl
when they nosed out their old rivals,
the Hoosiers of Indiana, by a score
of 28 to 25. Although finishing near
the top for the past nine years, this is
Ste first time since 1929 that they
have been able to take top honors.

Jimmie Smith, Indiana's Negro dis-

legs as it was for his teammate Bill
Miller who tried to put Indiana in

the 880 where he was far back in

As swim Maestro Matt Mann has
said before and would probably say
again on request, "They may beat
Matt Mann, but they won't ever beat
him much. My boys and I will al-
ways be close to the top." Matt is
right. Ohio State didn't beat him
much.
The Bucks have spent years trying
to beat the irrepressible Englishman
and his charges and even after they
succeeded in nudging him off his
Conference tank throne, they still
couldn't top the two greatest pro-
