ing by scant inches to teammate Jeff
Hall in the 65-yard high hurdles and
by only 31/4 inches to Panther Bill
Carter in the broad jump. Capt.
Don Canham bested the sophomore'
in the high jump by leaping a new
meet record of 6 feet 2% inches; while
in the low barrier event McCarthy
was nosed out by Stickel and Hall.
In scoring his pair of first place
wins, Stickel, a blond-haired speed-
ster, equaled one of the five meet
records that were either smashed or
tied. The Smoky City lad bulleted
the 60-yard dash in 6.3 seconds to
tie Wolverine Sammy Stoller's mark,
established in 1937.
In the evening's first event, the
mile run, Coach Ken Doherty's sec-
ond Maize and Blue cinder machine
swept all three places and stepped
into a lead that it never relinquished,
although the invaders crept up to
within one point, 14-13, after the
440-yard dash. Sophomore Bob Ufer
faltered at the tape in this race and
Pitt's Capt. Larry Tregonning closed
very rapidly to nip him in the slow
time of 51 seconds flat.
Senior veteran Jeff Hall ran a
beautiful race in the high hurdles,
taking an early lead and staving off
a desperate finishing drive by Mc-
Carthy. Doubling in the low stick
event, Hall lost by mere inches to
R Stickel in a thrilling finish.
A surprise performer in the two-.
mile, Pittman Walter Sterner, broke
the other meet record with a 9:42.91
clocking, while the Panther's middle-
distance ace, Del Anderson, lived up
to his reputation with a safe 15-yard
margin over Michigan's Johnny
Kautz.
Winding up the eventful evening'
in a decisive fashion, the, Wolverine
relay quartet, anchored by Bobby
Barnard who turned in a 49.9 quar-
ter after suffering from a cold earlier
in the week, scored a smashing 25-
yard victory over the Panther four-
some and equaled another meet
record.

Jeff Hall gained valuable Mich-

Arbor several years ago, on which
occasion the then-powerful Wolver-
ine aggregation handed the Cana-
dians a one-goal defeat.
Flanking Martin on the front line
are Jack Webster and Ray Krieger.
The two wings, together with the
redskin, make up one of the highest
scoring forward walls in the senior
loop. Krieger is third in the league's
individual scoring lists.
The Brantfords are coached by
Andy Andersen who gained fame as
a defenseman with the Toronto Sea
Fleas, the team which captured the
Allen Cup, emblematic of the Do-
minion championship, in 1928.
Lowrey Juggles Lineup
Michigan Coach Eddie Lowrey, an
inveterate lineup-juggler, has come
through with a few interesting
changes in the Wolverine starting
team. Capt. Charley Ross has been
moved up to right wing from his de-
fense position while Johnny Gillis
has droppedhbackalongside Bert
Stodden at the left defense posi-
tion.
Paul Goldsmith will be it the
starting center post while the left
wing job will be in the hands of a
newcomer, Bob Fife. Fife was in-
eligible during the first semester and
his presence on the squad should.
add a good deal of scoring punch to
the lineup.
The second line will be made up
of Bob Collins at center and Jim
Lovett and Fred Heddle on the wings.
The third forward wall will consist
of Max Bahrych, Roy Bradley and
Johnny Petritz. Petritz, another new
name on the squad, was out of school
the first semester. He is small but
a good stick-handler and a real
battler,
Local fans will have the opportun-
ity to see a really great team in action
tonight when Brantford takes the ice.

Ed Frutig, Pink
Join Townsend
All-Star Quintet
Two additions to the Townsend
All-Stars five, who will face the crack
Renaissance quintet at the Field
House next Friday night in a benefit
tilt for the WAA Swimming Pool
Fund, were announced by Jake
Townsend last night as he laid his
plans to trip the sensational New
Yorkers.
Arrangements are being made,
Townsend said, to bring Charlie Pink,
speedy guard who teamed with Jim
Rae here last year, and Ed Frutig,
All-American end on Fritz Crisler's
grid squad, into the lineup that will
meet the colored team.
Pink Strengthens Squad
Pink, who also captained the base-
ball team here last spring from his
outfield post, is working in DetroitI
at present and pastiming with the
Detroit Auto Club, a Class A ama-
teur five. He has plenty of speed
a'nd shooting ability that will fit in
well with the bullet passes of Town-
send and Rae.
Frutig did not come out for the
cage sport at Michigan, confining his
activies to the gridiron. He was a
star at River Rouge High School be-
fore coming here, however, and will
add valuable strength to Townsend's
squad.
Townsend has lined up an array of
Michigan cage veterans that should
give the high-riding Metropolitan
quintet a real struggle. In addition
to Pink and Frutig, the All-Stars
will have Jim Rae, last year's Wol-
verine captain, Eddie Thomas and
Herm Fishman, guards who played on
the same Michigan teams with
Townsend, and All-American half-
back Tom Harmon.
Harmon Rates High
The All-Star leader expressed sat-
isfaction at the news that Harmon
would definitely play. "Harmon is
an awfully good basketball player,"
he declared, "and, if he'd stuck to
the game here, he would have made
All-Conference or All-American."
Tickets for the benefit tilt will go
on sale Monday, and will be avail-
able at the Field House the night of
the game. Admission will be 40 cents,
and there will be no reserved seats.

Bond Indebtedness Cut $150,000

Due primarily to a football attend-'
ance record of 438,964 that was sec-
ond only to that made in 1927, the
bonded indebtedness of the Univer-
sity of Michigan was reduced by
$150,000 this year, Ralph Aigler,
chainan of the Board in control of
athletics, announced in his annual
report to the Regents yesterday.
This leaves approximately $850,-
000 still outstanding, Aigler revealed.'
Broadcasting rights poured $10,000
and student athletic coupons con-
tributed $66,852.84 to the receipts of
the last grid season.
Football was the only sport that
showed a profit, and consequently
was called upon to support the rest

of Michigan athletic teams, all of
which lost money.

Aigler ridiculed the notion that
"Star athletes live off silver plat-
ters and tread paths lined only with
roses. These men making up Mich-
igan teams have to be real college
students with academic records in-
dicating satisfactory progress to-
wards their degrees."
Drinking at football games was
discussed in the report but nothing
definite was offered as a solution. The
Northwestern game was specifically
pointed out and due to the tremen-
dous crowd and the poor weather
conditions, Aigler stated, drinking
was unusuallyheavy.

Swimmers Win
At Iowa State
Jim Skinner, Heydti Pace
Varsity's 55-29 Victory
(Special To The Daily)
AMES, Ia., Feb. 21-Michigan's
Wolverines, breaking one N.C.A.A.-
record and smashing three pool
marks, defeated Iowa State, 1940
Big Six champion, 55-29 in a dual
swimmihg meet here tonight.
Matt Mann's great crew thus suc-
cessfully concluded a mid-western
swing that included a victory over
the University of Iowa last night at
Iowa City.
Starting off with a record shatter-
ing performance in the 300 yard med-
ley relay, the Wolverines were never
headed as Mann's team administered
another shellacking to a former pu-
pil, this time Coach Charles McCaf-
free, mentor of the Iowans.
The undefeated relay team swam
the 300 yards in 2:54.5, bettering by
five-tenths of a second the N.C.A.A.
record made by a Wolverine team
in 1937 over a 20 yard course.
The pool records were made in the
breaststroke, the backstroke and the
final relay. Jim Skinner got revenge
for his. surprise defeat last night at
the hands of Al Povilaitis, Iowa ace,
when he backstroked his way to a
new mark for the 20 yard pool here.1
Francis Heydt, Big Ten champ in
the 150 yard backstroke also cracked
a record, followed by the Michigan
400 yard free style relay team.
Iowa State's brilliant captain, Rog-
er Adams, Big Six champion at 50,
60 and 100 yards swept the 60 and
100 yard free style races tonight to
pace his team against the heavily

SquifadToday
By STAN CLAMAGE
The Michigan wrestling team will
close its 1940-41 home season at 3
p.m. this afternoon at the Yost Field
House against a well fortified squad
from Ohio State.
In their last chance to see the
grapplers in action this year, the
fans will probably watch a very hotly
contested battle. Both teams are!
strong in the middle weight divisions
and the matches in these groupsj
should prove very close.
Montonaro Vs. Paup
The Buckeye captain, Tony Mon-
tonaro, will not be able to meet Bill
Combs, the Wolverine captain, as he
had expected. But he is going to
have a pretty tough time convincing
John Paup, Comb's substitute, just
who is the better man. Paup has
stepped-up from his customary 145-
pound slot to wrestle Montonaro in
his 155-pound class.
Sophomore Ray Deane will be back
at 'his 136-pound tussle, while Herb1
Barnett will again be in the 145-
pound scrap. Barnett will be on the
mat against Ohio's strong Keith Wolf.
Tom Weidig will meet George Be-
shara at 128 pounds.
'M' Lineup Uncertain'
In the remaining four fights, Coach
Keen is still undecided. In the 175-
pound and unlimited weights Keen
has Jim Galles, Emil Lockwood and;
Bill Courtright. One of the threei
will be in the lighter match, and
one of the other two will tackle the
unlimited weight. Courtright will
also be available, along with Art
Paddy, for the 165-pound maten.
Immediately following the wrest-
ling meet, at 4 p.m. today, the fresh-
man cinder squad will compete in a
correspondence meet with the year-
