All is well on the Michigan ath- letic front. Here is what the Double found yes- terday on its customary Monday morning survey. Ralph Schwarzkopf has no ex- cuses for his showing in Boston Saturday night ... The rambling ex-Wolverine captain has done under 9:10 for the two mile severalj times during his career ... Rice's winning performance the other eve was 9:12 with Schwarzkopf loping home in sixth position ... Ken Doherty blames it on the fact that Ralph and Al Tolmich drove home from the Sugar Bowl meet in New Orleans . . . on a non-stop auto trip. When the Double was in South Bend recently, Rice told us that he was going to have a terrible time in the big meets this year . . . He said he didn't have enough work yet, es- pecially indoor practice ... Poor kid. Wally Weber was in town yester- day after a 1400 mile banquet jaunt through Illinois last week . .. "Yep, they're still dishing out chicken in the corn belt," he pointed out . . . He had a letter on his desk addressed to "Walley Weeber." Contrary to rumors, Clark Gable Harmon has not suffered a com- plete nervous breakdown after one )f the Detroit newspapers recent- ly put a ban on the use of his name in their sports section .. The Ace is filling out a blank for "Who's Who in America." . . .They asked him for his greatest acomplishment . . "Graduating from the Uni- versity of Michigan, if," was the answer. Johnny Gee, towering Pittsburgh Pirate hurler, has not arrived in town yet but will do so within the next two day . . . The former Wolverine mound star will go through his us- ual winter arm-loosening under Ray Fisher's tutelage 'in the Field House Supposedly sold by Syracuse to the Piartes for a reported 75 thou- sand rubles, Gee turned up with a lame flinger last spring and was un- able to stand the Big League storm He'll be trying again come next April. Surprise guests at the Field House yesterday were part of the cast from Helizapoppin and also Doc Donahue, Cliff Keen's first Western Confer- ence wrestling champion. The stage stars, three fems and a male, came to see what the place was like and were delighted by the "boys who were playing so hard and funny-like" up on the wrest- ling roost .. . The three fems also happened to walk by an open show- er room door at the wrong time. Donahue won his title in 1926, the year the Wolverines captured their first Conference team crown . .. He grappled at 158 pounds and cap- tained the squad . . .Is now a prom- inent doctor in the Thumb. Out for wrestling yesterday was Jack Butler, varsity tackle candidate, who could capably fill the heavy- weight, hole in Keen's ranks. Matt Mann has been placed on a committee of swimming coaches to make "Every Soldier a Swim- mer." . . . The idea is relaxation and good exercise for the national defensemen. With the varsity cagers battling in Champaign, Coach Fisher took his frosh basketball candidates into the Field House hardwood for yesterday's drills . . .Merv Pregulman, the fresh- man 'grid center, has turned out for the team, and after four sessions, Fisher calls him a very good pros- pect . .. "He moves awful fast for a big lad and shoots pretty well for, the amount of practice he's had," the coach commented.

But in the last! half the game opened up and the Wolverines managed to get in for some short shots. Michigan scored, 26 of its 41 points in this half. In the final analysis, Illinois' driving tacticsnandaEver's ability. both from the field and the free throw line, made the difference. Ap- proximately half of Illinois' baskets were scored on fast breaks while most of Michigan's points came on pivot shots by Mandler and long ones by Ruehle. The Wolverines managed to get in tinder the basket at times during the second half, but Sofiak was the only one who really clicked there.

But Mandler's 14 points weren't quite enough last night as Michigan succumbed to Illinois, 47-41. Wrestlers' Win Over .Dearborn Reveals Need For Improvement By STAN CLAMAGE The Wolverine wrestlers may have opened the season with a bang Sat- urday night, but they will definitely have to become quicker on the trig- ger before meeting some real tough opposition. In winning six of the eight bouts against a much weaker Dearborn A.C. outfit the grapplers displayed a great deal of technique and aggres- siveness, but didn't have the zip to gain falls instead of decisions-or the difference between three points and five points in evbry bout. stage in three of the eight weights. And in order to defeat some of the better balanced squads which will provide opposition in the near future, the stronger men, particularly in the middle weights, will have to gain falls instead of three-point de- cisions. John Paup, Ray Deane, and Art Paddy did have extra punch Sat- urday, however. Deane and Paddy each won their matches by falls, both being constantly on the alert to take' advantage of opportunities.

This announcement followed close- ly the surprise withdrawal of Frank- lin & Marshall from a dual meet with the Michigan outfit scheduled for Friday. Now the swimmers will have two meets for their trip East since they swim the New York A.C. at New York on Saturday. There's quite a story behind the on-again, off-again swimming situ- ation.
