The Hawkeye medley relay team is also one of Coach Armbruster's fortes. Against Minnesota the trio composed of Armbruster, Poulos, and Wenstrom churned the 300-yards in 2:55.1. This time, however, over the short course is not so good as the 2:56.8 that Beebe, John Sharemet and Tommy Williams turned in over the long course against the Eli. Besides Wenstrom, the Iowa squad will depend on Walter Bareisa and Nick Karaffa for its free style sprint- ing duties. This'trio will encounter Charley Barker, the National Colleg- iate champion, and Bill Holmes in the 50-yard distance. In the century they will take on Gus Sharemet, the sophomore sensation, along with John Gillis and Ed Hutchens. Poulos and Karaffa will swim in the breastroke event for the Hawk- eyes along with Dwight Johnson, while Matt Mann will use his two Johns, Sharemet and Haigh. In the 220-yard free style, veteran Jim Welsh and .sophomore Tommy Williams will swim against Ahlgren and Dotson along with Ed Gerber from Iowa while Welsh and Blake Thaxter will match strokes with this same trio over the quarter mile dis- tance. 'Armbruster brought only one of his divers with the squad, Leo Biedrzy- ski, who will hold the Hawkeye fort against the Wolverine duo of Jack Wolin and' Strother "T-Bone" Mar- tin. As an added attraction tonight, Jim Skinner, Michigan's freshman breaststroke sensation, will attempt to lower the 100-yard pool mark of 1:03.1 that he set at the annual Swim Gala last November. 1 f 1 t I Y l IN THIS CORNER By MEL FINEBERG_ Bennie Turns 'Gag' Man..' BEFORE LONG they might be calling Bennie Oosterbaan the sage of the hardwood. Back in the days when he used to play a little basketball on his own hook, Bennie was the slowest man on the court. That is, he was slow until he started to move-at which time he was as fast as a door 7;nder lock and key. At times Ooosterbaan has been called the laziest man in Michi- gan. Certain of his friends, however, object to this; they would limit it to eastern Michigan. But be that as it may, Oosterbaan can move into action with his tongue as well as with his legs. For instance, he was talking about how moisture, in cold weather, would form on the Field House roof, condense to form liquid pools on the floor and then unwittingly, basketball players would slip on them. "Kinda like the J-Hop?" inquired some socialite. "Yea, kinda," replied Bennie, "except that at the J-Hop it was probably liquid within that caused the falls." To continue the Oosterbaan legend: Someone asked him how North- western's Dick Klein looked. "Well," said Bennie, somewhat ruefully, "it all depends on what night you see him." Note: Klein scored 24 points against Michigan last Saturday. He must have been an All-American then. Ohio State has a shot putter. This Ohio State shot putter's name is George Simmons. This Ohio State shot putter whose name is George Simmons has put the shot over 45 feet. Now it is not remarkable that Ohio State has a shot putter, or that a shot putter be named George Sim- mons or even that he can throw that thing better than 45 feet. But this lad is only 161 pounds of matter. That throws something light on the subject. *** * CORNERSTONES: Fritz Crisler is considering the possibility of the foot- ball team's flying to the coast next year to meet California ...It - pends pretty much upon whether or not it saves enough time to make the added expense worth while and then whether or not parental permission for the players can be obtained . ..

Bill Hapac's new Big Ten scoring record of 34 points was made on the same floor on - -0 ink Uncertain Starter Against ChicagoQuintet Maroons Seeking Initial Conference Win; Rae Hampered By Injury (Continued. from Page 1) feats might give the Maroons some much needed confidence. Added to this is the fact that Chi-I cago has been an in-and-out team since the season opened. It held powerful Illinois to a one point vic- tory as it lost 33-34, but bowed 41-27 to a weak Iowa court squad, which, Michigan trounced 47-38. Both basketball experts and Maroon Coach Nelson Norgren figured, before the season started, that Chicago with its fairly well-balanced squad of vet- erans and newcomers, which gave the Midway lads a team averaging better than six feet, should take a first divi- sion berth this season. Instead it has lost all six of its Conference starts and is over-due for a victory. Tonight will provide an excellent opportunity for Chicago to start winning, and it is up against a team that will gain nothing by com- ing out ahead, but will be under pres- sure to do so, for to lose means con- siderable loss of prestige. Not only is Michigan's starting five in doubt but so is that of the Maroons, since Coach Norgren has been con- stantly shuffling his players about in an effort to snap them out of their slump. However, as Coach Oosterbaan stat- ed that regardless of whether the -Chicago outfit uses a zone defense, man-to-man defense, or anything else its coach might have concocted, the fans will see a giant outfit that will scrap all the way, and Michigan must again resort to the clever fighting play of which it is capable to win. Probable Line-Up (Continued from Page 1) testants will be Michigan's Al Smith. Bud Piel, Al Thomas, and Carl Cul- ver; Conference champion Myron Piker of Northwestern; Ohio State'sE new Negro flash, Ralph Hammond, who ran a 6.1-second 60 recently: Notre Dame's football player-sprint- er; and a veritable host of other fine dashmen. The low hurdles finds Kelley de- lending his title against a field that includes teammates Jeff Hall and Al Thomas; Indiana's great Roy Coch- ran; and Ohio State's sophomore Al Kurnat. With the substitution of Sherman Olmstead for Thomas, these men will also compete in the high hurdles. Breidenbach In 300 The 300-yard dash finds Warren Breidenbach facing the strongest field he will have to race until the Conference meet. Cochran, Ohio's, Capt. Jack Sulzman, and Illinois' Cap.t Wilmur McGown will be en- deavoring to stop the march of Mich- igan's junior star. Don Canham will unlimber his high-flying legs against such jump- ers as Notre Dame's Ted Leonas and Michigan State's Walter Arrington. After Canham's recent showing here when he set a new Field House rec- ord, he is expected to bring home a new mark in the Relays. In addition, Doherty has entered Brad Heyl and Bill Ackerman in the 1500-meter run, Bob Hook and Tom. Lawton in the shot put, Carl Culver Woh'erine Tracwisien Favorites To Lead Field In Illinois Relays in the broad jump, and Dave Cush- ing, Charlie Decker, and Jack Mc- Master in the pole vault. The substitution of Ed Barrett for Heyl in the four-mile relay makes even stronger the team which won the event last year, for Schwarzkopf, Jack Dobson and Karl Wisner are all back for the defense of their joint title. Strong Medley Team The medley relay draws Michigan's next strongest bid for a relay cham- pionship, with Bob Barnard, Dye Hogan, Tommy Jester and Schwarz- kopf running the 440, 880, three- quarter mile and mile, respectively. The Wolverines, second last year, ap- pear capable of dethroning the de- fending Missouri team. Despite the fact that two of its members are only beginning to round into shape, the mile relay team may whip the rest of the field, though the entries of Indiana, Illinois, and Ohio State may prove too strong for a weakened quartet of Phil Balyeat, Jack Leutritz, Stan Kelley and War- ren Breidenbach. Michigan's remaining entry is in the two-mile relay, where Bill Ack- erman, Howie Egert, Ed Barrett, and Johnny Kautz make up the team. The presence of Indiana's great quartet >f Ed Hedges, Bob Hoke, Campbell Kane, the Hoosiers' sophomore sen- sation, and the versatile and dan- gerous Roy Cochran seems to pre- clude any great hopes of victory in this event. Jack Wolin, Wolverine diving star, who is due to see action in tonight's Big Ten swimming meet against the powerful Hawkeyes from Iowa. Wolin finished second to Capt. Hal Benham in the team's recent meet with the New York A.C. s. there is no other tea- kettle with the unique features of this one.

Michigan, with ineligibility and in- juries conquered, will face the Lions with what is probably the strongest line-up they have been able to mus- ter this season. Michigan's big tests will come in the lower weights. Tom Weidig, 121- pounder, is meeting the man who beat him last year in Carl King. Weidig's added experience may turn the tables tonight. Sophomore Dick French, beaten in his first start last week against Michigan State, will be out to prove himself a valuable addition to the squad when he meets letter- man Dave Waite. Jack Sergeant will have the toughest assignment in Frank Gleason, Eastern Intercollegi- ate champion, who was pinned in last year's meeting between the two teams by Wolverine Jim Mericka. Starting at 155 pounds, the Wol- verines must be given the edge. The speedy Bill Combs may find trouble with Joe Scalzo, the Lion 145-pounder who was runer-up for the Eastern 155-pound crown last year, but should get the nod. Harland Danner, 155- pounder, faces veteran Roy Gensler, and Sophomore Jim Galles squares off against Jim Lindzey at 165 pounds. Don Nichols, at 175, and captain "Butch" Jordan, heavyweight, already hold decisions over their opponents tonight, Lion Captain Ernie Bortz and the improved Warren Elliott, re- spectively. Courtright To Start Golf Classes Feb. 19 Under the direction of Ray Court- right, Varsity golf mentor ,a series of golf instruction classes will be held in the Intramural sports building be-' ginning Monday, Feb. 19. J All University students and facul- ty members are urged to attend free of charge any one of the four sched- uled sections, each of which meets twice a week for three weeks, a total of six lessons. The first section gets under way Monday and Wednesday, Feb. 19 and 21, at 3:30 p.m. with an- other section following immediately after on the same dates at 4:30 p.m. The third and fourth sections will first meet Tuesday and Thursday, Feb. 20 and 22, at 3:30 and 4:30 p.m. respectively. Beginning March 11 these classes will be repeated for another three weeks. i which' Ernie Andres scored 30 in 1938: for his mark. Puck men Seek VictoryTo Te For State Title Michigan's badly clawed pucksters, beaten by Michigan Tech, 1-0, Thurs- day night in a fast, defensive hockey game, take the ice at Houghton, again today in an endeavor to battle their way out of a slump and skate into a tie with the Miners for the mythical state championship. Thursday's "Battle of Goalies" ended late in the third period when Bob Petaja, Tech wingman, flipped the puck past the helpless Spike James from a scramble in front of the Michigan net. Up to that time both James and Fred Meyer, Huskie netminder, had played sensational hockey in keeping their respective nets free of pucks. With Larry Calvert, high scoring defenseman out of the lineup due to graduation, Coach Lowrey's squad is sadly lacking in effective scoring punch. So it will probably be up to Captain James and defensemen Charley Ross and Bert Stodden to stem the Tech attack, while the Michigan forwards play for the breaks to give them some scoring opportunities. Michigan's top line of Paul Gold- smith, center, and Jim Lovett and Gil Samuelson at the wings carry the Wolverines' hopes to shatter the five game losing streak that the Maize and Blue team will carry on to the Houghton ice this afternoon before a festival-minded crowd of Winter Carnival celebrants. In the three games played thus far, Michigan's "iron men" have notched one goal against the goal- tending of Kurt Gustafson and Mey- ers, who guarded the nets Thurs- day, in gaining one victory and los- ing twice.

Joe Medwick, the medalist, and Wes Ferrell, the defending champion, both advanced handily. Medwick turned in an approximate 76 to oust Denny Galehouse, 3 and 2, and Ferrell had a 77 to defeat Heinie Manush, 2 and 1. Paul Derringer, Cincinnati pitcher, who is another favorite, breezed through his match with Johnny Riz- zo, big Pittsburgh outfielder, for a 4 and 3 victory. He played out the round in 75.
