Indiana Shows
Track Power;
Michigan Cops Mile Relay
At Illinois Carnival
If there were any non-believers
among the ranks of Michigan's Var-
sity track team concerning Indiana's
cinder dynamite prior to the Illinois
Relays last Saturday at Champaign,
they have certainly been convinced
now. The Wolverine trackmen reluc-
tantly saw every vestige of doubt
shattered by the Hoosiers' brilliant
display of track power and strength
in which the Crimson swept three of
the major relay events.
But all was not sombre for the
Wolverines. Coach Ken Doherty pro-
nounced himself "very well satisfied"
with the progress made towards the
all-important Western Conference In-
door meet three weeks hence.
Relay Team Wins
Running in the evening's final
event., a Maize and Blue mile relay
team blazed the distance in the ex-
cellent time of 3:22.8. Bill Dobson,
Al Thomas, and Bob Barnard, who
completed his quarter in 49.6, handed
anchorman Bob Ufer a sizeable lead,
which the speeding sophomore ex-
tended to 20 yards over runner-up
Notre Dame, for the easy victory.
Despite a fine 6 foot 6 inch leap,
Capt. Don Conham saw his high
jump crown removed by Notre Dame's
Keith O'Rourke, who bettered Don's
jump by half-inch.
A large chunk of misfortune blast-
ed Wolverine chances in the shuttle
hurdle relay when sophomore Neil
Maclntyre suffered a recurrence of a
leg injury while leading on the last
leg of the event. The Michigan hurd-
ler fell and by the time he limped to
the tape the parade had gone by.
McCarthy Places Twice
Encouraging individual performan-
ces were turned in by another soph-
o lore, Frank McCarthy, in the high
hurdles, where he finished fourth in
a star-studded field, and in the broad
jump where he copped another fourth
with a leap of 22 feet 11 inches.
Sprinter Bud Piel also gave indica-
tions that he is rounding into good
shape by winning his semi-final 75-
yard heat in the fast time of 7.6
seconds, although he got a poor start
in the final heat, and finished out
of the running.

Clark To Lead
Strong Wayne
Natators Here
By WOODY BLOCK
All eyes of the swimming world will
focus on Ann Arbor tomorrow night
when Coach Leo Maas brings his
Wayne University team to meet
Michigan in what is already being
regarded as the meet of the year.'
Only a match with Yale could ever
hope to overshadow the impending
clash of the Tartars and the Wol-
verines-and that is beyond the realm
of possibility now. That is why Matt
Mann is planning on his biggest, most
enthusiasatic crowd of the season.
This is one dual meet that is a na-
tural.
Matching the Wolverines stroke for
stroke in practically every event,
Maas is bringing two national col-
legiate, All-American champions in
the persons of Andy Clark, distance
star and captain of the Wayne squad,
and Guy Lumsden. sprint ace.
Clark finished first in the 440 yard
race and second in the 220 in last
year's Intercollegiate championships,
besides grabbing a third in the long
1,500 meter grind, while Lamsden
took the 50 yard free style event
ahead of Scofield (Army) and Mich-
igan's Charley Barker.
With these two sticks of dynamite
to throw at Matt Mann's triple-
champs just as a preliminary attack,
the Tartars are bringing a sensation
by the name of Bill Prew who swims
almost anything fbm the 50 to
the 440. Last week, in an exhibition
at the Detroit Athletic Club, Prew
pushed Otto Jaretz to a 51.3 time
in an assault on Johnny Weismuel-
ler's 100 yard world record.
But Michigan balance, as has been
the custom in recent years, is ex-
pected to bring the margin of vic-
tory. The backstroke and breast-
stroke events are virtually cnceded
the Wolverines with the outcome of
the meet hinging on the sprint and
distance races.
The Tartars will give the Manna-
tators a real battle in the 50 and 100
yard races with Lumsden getting
the nod in the shorter race and a
wide open tussle expected when Db-'
son Burton and Gus Sharemet or
Tommy Williams let loose against'
Prew and possibly Lumsden in the
century.
Added strength will come with the
return to eligibity of Capt. Bill Beebe
who with Jim Welsh and Burton will
see action for the first time this year.
The meet is scheduled to start at
7:30.
Puckmen Defeated
By Paris Saturday;
Face Week Of Rest
The members of Eddie Lowrey's
Michigan hockey team looked for-
ward with pleasure to a week of idle-
ness yesterday. Saturday night they
dropped their seventh game in ten
starts to the Paris (Ont.) A.C. by a
7-3 score.
The Wolverines trailed, 2-1, at the
end of the first period and were on
the short end of a 3-2 count when
the second frame ended. Up to that
point, it looked as if they had just
been unlucky. During the first two
periods, Lowrey's lads missed a great
many open shots and the fans were
convinced that they could win in the
third period if they got the breaks.
Suffice to say that things broke
just the other way. The visitors scored
four times while Michigan was tally-
ing only once and Paris came out on
top, 7-3.
Michigan's goals were scored by
Charley Ross, Bert Stodden and

Johnny Gillis with Stodden, Max
Bahrych and Bob Collins getting
credit for assists. Ross scored on a
long, low shot. Gillis broke loose while
the Wolverines were a man short
and fired a rifle-shot past Goalie
Laurence (Gyp) Englund. Stodden's
score came on a close-in shot after
he had taken a pass from Collins in
front of the goal.
Bob Midgely, right wing, led the
Paris scoring with two goals and two
assists. Bill Hayward also had two
goals.
The Wolverine pucksters will re-
sume their regular practice sessions
tonight in preparation for three tough
games next week when they meet
the Brantford club of the Senior On-
tario Hockey Association and Min-
nesota's Golden Gophers in twc
games.

136-pounder, stepped-up to the 145-
pound class for his win.
Senior Tom Weidig, after recover-
ing from a siege of pneumonia, lost
his match, which was one of his best,
on a close 8-5 decision to Big Ten
Champ Joe Sparks. Like Courtright,
Herb Barnett had his first taste of
big time competition. His match
was rather dull, and Indiana's Ben
Wilson came out with a 5-1 decision.
The largest crowd to witness a
match this season got a big kick out
of Emil Lockwood's gallant,z but
feeble efforts in the unlimited tussle.
Coming to Coach Keen's rescue for
a second time, Emil spotted his larg-
er opponent over 30 pounds but kept
the match going all the time. The
213-pound Hoosier grappler, Jim
Tremble, tried everything that he
knew against his smaller opponent
but couldn't force a pin.

Louis Finishes
c
DorazioIn 2nd1
To Retain Title -
CONVENTION HALL, Philadel-
phia, Feb. 17-(4')-The old Joe Lou-
is-the Brown Bomber who was sup-
posed to be on the road down-quit
his kidding tonight.
With a whistling right hand smash
that was just as explosive, just as
sharp and just as damaging as any he
ever has thrown, the Dusky Destroyer
put Gus Dorazio to sleep in 1 minute,
30 seconds of the second round of
their scheduled 15-round bout to suc-
cessfully defend his world heavy-
weight championship for the 14th
time.
This was the Louis who "rocks 'em
and wrecks 'em." And the 15,902 fans
who jammed this big Westside Arena
-biggest crowd ever to see an indoor
fight in Philadelphia-roared in
agreement.
For one round he sparred around
with Dorazio, trying to lure the low-
slung South Philadelphian out of his
crouch. Then, with the second round
hardly under way, he started moving
in. As Dorazio lunged forward, he ran
right into a long, straight left that
straightened him up. Before he could
get down into his shell again, a right
hand that traveled no more than six
inches crashed flush against his chin
with the effect of a 16-inch shell.
The beetle-browed local boy hit
the canvas on his face, and lay there,
his nose digging into the rosin, as
Referee Irving Kutcher completed
his count of ten. Gus wasn't quite
sure afterward just what happened.
Financially the fight was a success
beyond even the fondest dreams of
Louis and his fistic family. The gross
gate was $57,552.62, far over which
any fight ever drew in this City of1
Brotherly Love.
Kimbrough Signs

NEW YORK, Feb. 17-(RP)-"Jar-
rin' " John Kimbrough made his big-
gest gain today, and he did it with
a pen instead of a pigskin.
The Texas A. & M. All-America
signed one-year contracts for football
and other services with Douglas
Hertz, owner of the New York pro
football Yankees, which will bring
him $37,500. Of this amount $12,500
represents payment for playing foot-
ball next fall, and the remaining
$25,000 will be paid under a separate
contract concerning other activities
during the year.

Ineligibility Throws Wolverines

s _ ------

The coaches' annual midyear head-
ache, ineligibility, has come along as
usual to plague Michigan's athletic
mentors. Here's an unofficial list of
the Wolverine performers who have
bowed out of competition as a re-
,milt nf mrit exminatins~

lost a pair of promising sophomores
by ineligibility. Shotputter Rudy
Sengel, who had already bettered 46
feet in practice, and Jim Byerly, an
evcellent hurdle prospect, both failed
to weather the scholastic storm.
