PROTECTED by a pair of guaran- teed water wings, ear plugs, a snug bathing cap, and a prayer I paid Matt Mann a visit at 11 a.m. yesterday. Obviously I was epeeting a stormy. session. Memories of the sports editor of the Daily Iowan and his flight toj the practice field mud, with Hawkeye gridders on the tossing end, kept run- ning through my mind. As I entered, the immaculate Intramural Pool stared me in the face. It looked wet. Matt Mann had every right to be annoyed. Sunday morning your chronicler wrote a piece on the "winter roundup." There was track, basketball, hockey, wrest- ling-but no swimming. It hadn't been mentioned even once. Reason - long column, short space, ill-advised deletion by junior night editor. Don't ask me why the night editor sliced the swimmers out of the pic- ture. I don't know. It might be com-t pared to a round-up of the American: League,.sans the Yankees, or a sum- mary of Big Ten football, minus Minnesota. Coach Mann had said a good deal over the phone Sunday morning. I expected the climax at 11 yesterday. I was prepared'. We had a lovely chat about football, the wonderful job Fritz Crisler had done, the pressing: need for Board jobs; and other subjects of a non- natatorial nature. And how will the. swimmers be? "We'll, be tough," said Matt. OWe' will be very tough. We are going to have a real good team." THIS GENTLEMAN Matt Mann doesn't fool. He isn't a. pop-off eoach. When he tells you, you may. believe. History and. the swimming records prove that when Mann says a team will be tough, you mightsafe- ly bet a sixpence that he's right. The evidence, Jeeves.: Mann coached his first Michigaz swiming team in 1925. In that year Michigan. finished third in the' .$ig Ten In 1926, they finished second. From,1927 to'1938 they won nine of 12 Conference championships., three years they didn't win, came in second. The they From 1924 to 1938 Mr. Mann has coached nine National Inter- collegiate champions. His record to date is five straight. Three times during this period he wound up second. This year Michigan will be host, and Matt hopes to show the locals how it's done. English born, Matt Mann is stocky, ruddy, healthy, spirited. He puts everything he has into his coaching --shouting, encouraging, ranting, and berating his charges. His volatile en- thusiasm has brought results. Matt's pool is his laboratory, and he moulds his products the hard way-working them at a fierce pace. Out of the; Mann laboratory have evolved your finished stars-the incomparable world's champion Dick Degener, Ed Schmieler, Taylor Drysdale, Jim Christy, Jack Kasley, Ed Kirar, and Tom Haynie, to name a few. Mann has a grudge to settle this year. His supremacy last season was strongly challenged by Michael Peppe, and his Ohio State armada. They beat Matt in the Conference, but he came back by nosing them out by a single point n the Nationals. But the margin wasn't wide enough to satisfy Matt. His big loss this year is naturally last, yea's captain "Moose" Kirar, Conference and national champion m the 50 and 100 yd. sprints. Kirar, who whizzed' off a 23 flat in the 50 and a 52.7 in the 100, will be a hard man to- replace. Other , issing faces will be Jack Wolin, the diver who didn't return, to school, breaststroker Wally Creighton, and diver Hanley Stp ley. 01 EADING the forces of Mann this year is Haynie, one of the nation's stanldouts in the :free style. He will be better 'this season than ever, for as Matt puts it: "You watch Tom this year. Ites captain this year, and how he's working. He's really going to do things this season." Matt is counting heavily on Walde- Duke To Meet U.S.C. In Bowl Classic Tilt To Be Played At Pasadena Jan. 2 DURHAM, N.C., Nov. 28.--(IP) --Duke University athletic offi- cials announced tonight they had accepted an invitation to play Southern California in the Rose Bowl classic at Pasadena, Calif., on Jan. 2. LOS ANGELES, Calif., Nov. 28.-()P) -Duke was invited to play the University of Southern California in' the Rose Bowl football classic Jan. 2. Director of Athletics Willis O. Hun- ter of U.S.C. made the formal an- nouncement. Earlier today the Tro- jans had been selected by the Pacific Coast Conference to represent the far west in the traditional battle. The sudden announcement broke all recent records in deciding on the Rose Bowl candidates, and brings to- gether two of the finest teams of their respective sections of the na- tion. mar Tomski and Ed Hutchens, who, along with Haynie and Kirar, copped the' 400-yard national relay title at New Haven last year in 3:33.2. Hal Benham, hampered by a broken arm last season, will handle the diving nicely (he was rated third in the na- tion in 1938), and Johnny Haigh will be on hand for breast-stroke duty. There are many more, Matt inevitably having an abundance of talent, be- sides a good crew of sophomnores. Big names among the first year men are Bill Beebe, Bill Holmes, and Chuck Barker, all of whom swim back stroke and free-style, and Blake Thaxter and Jim Welch, free-stylers. As to Ohio, well they lose only, Neunzig and Patterson, back-stroker and divdr respectively. Quayle, Sobol, Johnson, Patnik, Higgins, and Co. will be back next year, and that means the Buckeyes will be tough, but as Matt puts it: "You watch Michigan." VARSITY SWIMMERS There will be a meeting of all varsity swimmers, today at 5 p.m., at the Intramural Pool. Matt Mann On W olverines' All-Op Yale Star Is Named I WML By HERB LEV In an exclusive poll conducted by the Daily, Michigan's Varsity foot- ball players yesterday named their All-Opponent team. That Northwestern's Wi 1 d c a t s earned more respect than any of Michigan's other rivals in holding the Wolverines to a' scoreless tie, became evident when Lynn Waldorf's crew gained five first team berths on the All-Opponent aggregation. Michigan State and Minnesota each placed two men, and Pennsylvania and Yale one each. Twedell Named Allowing two points for a first team vote, and one for a second,. Francis Twedell, Minnesota's great guard and Bernie Jefferson, dusky Northwes- tern flash came closest to being unanimous, choices by gaining 47 and 46 votes respectively out of a possible 48. With Jefferson in the backfield were Gil Humphrey of Yale, who al- most beat Michigan single handed with his passes, Johnny Pingel, Mich igan State's All-American nominee, and big . Larry Buhler, Minnesota's pile driver. Harold Van Every and Wilbur Moore, the Gophers' passing combination, who combined to beat the Wolverines out of the Big Ten Northwestern Captures Five Positions <.. ponent Team title, were both honored with second team positions. Nash Ignored Cleo Diehl, Northwestern captain. and Esco Sarkinnen, Ohio State's de- fensive mainstay, were the end choices. An astonishing feature of the poll was that Minnesota's George 'Butch' Nash chosen on almost all pf the All-Conference teams, barely won honorable mention here. Bob Voights of Northwestern and Walter Shinn, Penn's husky captain, dominated the tackle field, drawing 43 and 39 points. Twedell's running mate at guard was Hal Method of Northwestern who held a slight edge over Minnesota's colored placekicking specialist. Horace Bell, and Lyle Rockenbach of Michigan State. Haman Is Popular Johnny Haman, Northwestern's, All-Conference pivot man, had prac-I tically no competition for the center' post, with 39 points. However the race for the second team position was very close with Jim McDonald of Il- linois and Bill Stack, Yale captain- elect tied with six points. Stack was awarded the position because he drew one more first team vote. Players who earned more than three points were given honorable' mention. Kodros To Captain Gridders In 1939 (Continued rrom rage 1) iron, but a natural leader on the field of battle, Archie is the fourth line- man in a row to ascend to the cap- taincy. Kodros is 20 years old, five foot eight inches tall and weighs slightly over 190 pounds. He's a stu- dent in the literary school, an inde- pendent, and a member of Sphinx, junior men's honorary society. Anderson To Coach Iowa The United Press reported last night that Dr. Edward Anderson, Holy Cross football coach who re- signed from that post, has signed a. three-year contract with the Univer- sity of Iowa, succeeding Irl Tubbs as head coach at the Big Ten school. Schwartzkopf, Gedeon To Run to N.. Games Board Grants Wolverines Permission To Compete In GothamFebruary 14 Permission has been granted varsity trackmen Elmer Gedeon and Ralph Schwartzkopf to participate in the Millrose Games in Madison Square Garden in New York City on Feb. 14, it was announced by the Board in Control of Physical Education at a ir.a eting Saturday.

At the same time, it was voted to retire $50,000 on the Athletic Associa- tion indebtedness. This amount is the largest in years and a considerable increase over the $37,500 retired last year. The Board also voted to give the Western Junior Golf Association per- mission to hold their tournament on the University golf course after the close of school in June. Prices also were announced for basketball and hockey games. Re- served basketball tickets will be one dollar and the general admission 75 cents.

Stratton's Leg Amputated Shot in a hunting accident Sun- dlay near his mother's home in Texas,_ Monty Stratton, Chicago White Sox pitcher, underwent ank operation for the removal of his fight leg at the knee last night it has been reported.
