WHAT they must be thinking: Matt Mann-that his man Haynie is in tow of some heavenly deity- who shepherds scholastic black sheep. Charley Hoyt-that the same heavenly deity is a phoney and itl the wrong hemisphere. Walt Stone-distance ace, shy honor points-that Charley is right. Smack Allen-that Mariucci, Go- pher defensemari, whom he chilled in the Minneapolis arena a few weeks ago, will be kittenish in the down- iCe maneuvering next week-kitten- ish enough to splinter a shinny bone, maybe. Prof. Ralph W. Aigler-that news- papermen, like women, always have the last word. Dizzy Dean-(remember him-)- that Branch Rickey, his boss, is pro- moting the Yankees' salary rebellion. Pick Dehner-(who paid $5.00 for a special exam to regain eligibility) -that it certainly pays to save for a rainy day . . . (Here, the only way to erase an "E" is to mesmerize your prof, chloroform his secretary, use your gum eraser with haste--and then, brother, run like hell). Crisler Advised . FROM a contrib in Ralph Cannon's "Campus Canopy" column in the Chicago Daily News: "I want to take this opportunity to give Fritz Crisler a few words of ddvice about how to live long and happily in Ann Arbor. Here they are: "1. Don't become too friendly with big automobile men. "2. Don't buy a yacht. "3. Don't spend your vacation in. Miami. "4. Don't bother to become friendly with Chicago and De- troit sports writers. Look after the boys closer home. "5. Don't write for the news- papers or magazines. "6. Don't hire an assistant who dominates your own job. "7. 'Have your bridge parties for the folks on the campus. "8. Don't build a home larger than your confreres can afford." Could Crisler's Polonius be making allusions to anyone? * * * THE WEEK'S largest chuckle: "The crowd heard a brilliant eulogy of Harry Kipke by Toastmaster Tod Rockwell." . . . Next thing you know, Johnny Lewis and Bill Green will kiss and make up . . . The You-Said-It department: "All of us give thanks they don't sell soft drinks in bottles around the grandstands. If I ever heard a butcher shout, 'soft drinks in bottles,' I'll run right off the floor."-Nick Kearns, Big Ten basketball referee. HEARD AND OVERHEARD: That Tad Weiman, Earl Martineau and Campbell Dickson will come to Mich- igan is a virtual certainty providing none of them is selected for the Yale Bulldogs Didn't DrownI Without Battle By STEWART FITChl The Wolverine swimmers hung up another scalp in their trophy rooml Wednesday night when they defeat-f d the Bulldogs from Yale but thel >attle was so fierce that they almostj lost their own. Certainly the- victory was a wel- come one but was not nearly as de- cisive as Coach Matt Mann and his charges would have liked it to be. The terrific rivalry which existed' between the two teams before the meet will probably continue to exist perhaps even stronger than ever at least as far as the Eli are concerned. Haynie By A Foot It might be said that the entire meet was decided by the margin of less than a foot in the 400-yard relay when Tom Haynie clipped the finish line just ahead of John Macionis of Yale. The real cause allowing the Eli to come within striking distance, however, was the failure of Walt Tomski to take the 50-yard sprint l and the .14 point difference which! pushed Jack Wolin out of first place i in the diving.I Another event, which would have changed the situation greatly hadI Haynie been two strokes faster, was the 220-yard free-style grind whiPh! Macionis took with a margin of! inches. Had the Wolverine natators come through in these events which proved to be so close, the score would have read 47-28 instead of 41-34. Such a margin was anticipated before the meet; in fact, that is the pre-meet score prediction that Matt Mann cal- culated early this week. Something Wrong Ilere Comparison of times in the meett and those credited to the swimmers on other occasions indicate that something was wrong. The winning time for the 50 was 23.7 and for the 220, 2:13.6, both being slow for Yale's fast pool. Tomski has negotiated the 50 consistently close to 23 seconds and Haynie's average for the 220 is considerably under his effort at Yale' The Varsity moves to Columbus l next to tangle with the Ohio State Buckeyes on Saturday night. .14 I o il fI, Scire,- Watson Leads Scorers; Tops.

Former half- miler Doug Hayes never relinquished the lead which he annexed at the gun to finish the 440 in 51.7 with Clarke of Michigan and Wright of State coming up fast. A listless one-mile run produced little of excitement after the first{ lap when Michigan's Harold Davidson moved past Frey of State to take over a lead which he never relinquished, stretching it to 15 yards and coming past the post under blankets in 4:23.3. Greer of State, gave the Spar- tans their only first place when he beaded Bill Watson by a full stride in the 60, tieing the meet mark of 6.3 set by Sam Stoller last year. Kingsley Clears 13 Feet Acting Captain Jimmie Kingsley missed 13 feet 6 inches by the width of a hand but was credited with 13 feet to give Michigan a win in the pole vault leaving State's Lodo Ha- berle tied for second with Michigan SoPIomore Dave Cushing. Wes Al- len, Negro high jump star, leaped 6 feet 2 inches for first in the high jump in which Watson took second and Carl Culver tied for third with Moore of State to leave the Spartans within a half point of a shut-out. Despite the fact that it was little more than a warm-up Michigan's one-mile relay team carded 3:25.1 for the distance. Bill Aigler started the race giving the stick to Miller with a ten yard lead which had grown to 75 !yards by. the time the baton had )assed through Abbott and Hayes who opened up full blast despite the large lead to turn in the time which broke the third meet record. Big Bill Watson paeed Charlie hoyt's track squad to their win over Michigan State last night with an impressive triple-threat performance. Watson broke his own Field House record in the shot put in addition to taking seconds in the 61) Yardl (ash tnd high jump to take high pOint hon- ors for the evening. Paris Victory Shows Sextet By BUD BENJAMIN Cappy Cappon halted practice yes- terday afternoon for the second time in as many days and huddled his forces in the center of the Field House court. Cappy had a message to reiterate. The sum and substance of it was this: "Gentlemen," said Cappy, "we're playing life and death basketball.' When we make a shot we get a little life; when we miss, we're dead weight. We've been spending too much time complaining when they don't drop. In short, we're discouraged." Let's Stop Worrying "Remember," continued Cappy, "we're playing basketball because we like it. Let's play the game as a game and play i for all it's worth. A missed shot is no catastrophe and don't ever forget that a .500 average is exceptional. If we miss four, let's look forward to making the next four, and not waste time in worrying how far off we are." Michigan hit a new low after the Iowa defeat last Monday. Emotional- ly keyed to hit the Conference home stretch in their quest for the elusive cage title, the Hiawkeye loss was a terrific let-down. Tuesday's practice might aptly have been transferred to the city morgue. The environment would have been admirable. Cappy Speaks Again Wednesday they started out in the same old way. Every time a shot missed the old grumble and groan started. Chatter was null. Pep was void. That's why Cappy stepped in with his words of wisdom. The lecture of Wednesday helped matters somewhat. The gloomshowed signs of lifting, and last night's fin- ishing touch turned the trick. The boys started to hit again. Tie old pepper returned. They began to tlidd one another, to talk it up onec more. It was a relief from former solemnity, and a welcome sign in sight of the two engagements of the week-end. Gophers, Varsity Tied Minnesota, who shares a fourth place slot with Michigan in the Con- ference standings and Wisconsin, fifth place occupant, are the visitors. r The Gophers, whom the Varsity whipped in a brilliant second half n rally January 16, have shown a form a reversal after an early slump. They opened the season with three straight losses, but the Conference co-champ ; have come back convincingly to take their last four games in good fashion Wisconsin is the revenge game.It 9was at Madison, two days after the Minnesota encouragement, that the s varsity tasted defeat for the first time Since then they have won only one - of their last four Big Ten games.

Watch Powell, Rtooney The Badgers present Howard Pow- ell and George Rooney, fourth and seventh respectively in the scoring race this year. And Michigan, as always, is hoping that Captain John Townsend starts Aropping them in again. Jake has been leading the Wolverine scoring parade, and that's a tough job with the opposition concentrating on him. Yet he's been missing mor., often than Jsual. Two wins this week-end may quite possibly put the cagers back in the Conference running. Right now their chances seem confined to the realm of mathematics. Come what may, there'll be a new spirit evident, and it may turn the trick. Watch for it!

TheI Paris defense was pulled out of po- sition again and again leaving the net clear. But to no avail. England had the entrance blocked. And not content with that, he even dashed far out on the ice to smother the puck making sure that Michigan's Big Three wouldn't have a chance atl the goal. The work of the veteran Wolver- ine defensemen, Captain Bob Simp- son and Bucko Smith, was outstand- ing. Paris found it extremely hard to break through for a shot. The for- wards helped a great deal on defense by prompt back-checking. And Spike James took care of any at- 'empts that got through. The stick-handling and shifty 'kating was not confined solely to the first trio. The second line com- posed of Ev Doran, George Cooke, and Ed Chase, with Les Hillberg al- ternating at wing, showed consider- able improvement over past perfor- mances.
