They fed long and well. To the audible delight of the roar- ing crowd of 8,300 fans, Gerard and Aubuchon generated most of the skill and finesse which enabled the smooth working State five to hit the amazing average of 46 percent on 25 field goals out of 55 shots. After spotting the Wolverines a tipoff basket by Capt. Bill Cartmill, Michigan State grabbed an early lead and never lost it. Steadily increasing the margin, Coach Ben Van Alstyne's quintet, passing with amazing pre- cision and split timing, moved out in BULLETIN ---- Leo Doyle, Wolverine guard, was admitted to the University Hos- pital late last night as a result of an eye injury which he suffered in the Michigan-Michigan State basketball game. Ray Roberts, team trainer, reported the injury' was not serious and that he would be released today. front by 12-6 midway in the first period, and then the revenge starved Spartans really poured it on. Only with less than two minutes remaining did the Spartan coach re- move his aces, secure in the know- ledge that they had handed Michi- gan its worst Spartan defeat in his- tory. The previous record was a 45-23 State win in 1909. To catch up with the feats of Jones, though, which the Wolverines never were quite able to do: After his team-mate, Mel Peterson tied the count at 2-2, Dud netted three quick field goals on a lay-up, a one-hand hook shot and a long tom. This made it 8-4 after guard Bill MacConnachie scored a long for the Wolverines. Then in three quick minutes, the Spartan ace poured two more longs and a pair of charity shots through Th at ones Boy Swim Team Downs Buckeyes At Columbus, 46-38 -I.' _________ _______________________ Wolverine Mermen Take Seven Events As Martin Wins Diving DON HOLMAN the basket pausing only in between counters while the invading Michi- gan outfit made disorganized rushes down the long Field House floor. Thus Jones personally dumped in'12 points and edged his quintet out to an 18 to 8 margin, from which Michi- gan never threatened. Jones added another trio by half- time, when the Green and White held a 29 to 16 margin, and slackened but slightly in the final period with an- other ten markers. Gerard, feinting and faking beautifully, poured hook shots from both sides of the net for 12 second-half points which gave him 16 for the night and runner-up scor- ing honors. Aubuchon, a superb play maker from his guard slot, tallied only five points but thrilled the huge crowd with his Wolverine tantalizing floor performance. Michigan's offense-or lack of it- was stingless, partly because the Spartans threw up a closely knit man-to-man defense and partly be- cause their shots just weren't drop- ping. State center Nick Hashu turned in a fine job of guarding big Jim Mandler, although he -committed three fouls doing it. Jim's hooks were rimming the basket and rolling out tonight; Michigan State's weren't. Mandler led the Wolverine scoring with 10, while scrappy Don Holman, starring in a reserve role, shoved in seven. Sophomore Morrie Bikoff played a fine floor game for the Wol- verines, whose capabilities just could- n't match their spirit tonight. I'E (Special to The Daily) COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 11.-Racking up its 33rd consecutive dual meet triumph Michigan's titlehold- ing swimming team swept aside a strong Ohio State victory bid like so much dust to submerge the Buck- eyes, 48-36, in their own natatorium here tonight. Once again the unbeatable Wol- verine machine shot into an early lead which the Scarlet and Gray color-bearers could not overcome. And once again the Ann Arbor na- tators splashed home ahead of Coach Mike Peppe's ever-trying but fast-; tiring mermen in seven of the nine events. Martin Has Close Call The thrills of the night were found just where they were expected-in I the fancy diving contest where Mich- igan's colorful little senior ace, Stro- ther T-Bone Martin, met the chal- lenge of Ohio State's two brilliant stars, Frank Dempsey and CharlieI Batterman, like the true champion he is. Behind at the end of the sixth dive, the flashy Wolverine, working with machine-like precision and timing, snatched up his victory in the final four options with a total of 130.03 points. Barely unable to match Mar- tin's flawless form, Dempsey had to be content with the second place his 128.16 points netted him, while Batterman, garnering 125.8 markers, finished a close third in the hotly dis- puted contest. Michigan Coach Matt Mann's new- est hope for record breaking per- formances in the freestyle events, junior Johnny Patten, continued his winning manners as he stroked his way to first place in both the 220 and 440 yard races. The Maize and Blue distance ace again unofficially bettered the Big Ten 220 record, this time covering the course in 2:12.8- too fast for Buckeyes Don Schnabel and Jack Ryan. Sharemet Regains Form It took Dick Reidl, Wolverine sen- ior, to pull the biggest upset of the night. Opposing Ohio State's hith- erto undefeated sophomore sensation, Mark Follansbee, Reidl swam his fastest race of the year, 1:39.1, to whip the Buckeye star in the 150 yard backstroke battle. The last time these two met Follansbee touch- ed out the Michigan entry by a palm's length, but Reidl, pouring it on the whole distance, evened the score to- night.- But it took Gus Sharemet, Maize and Blue senior, who set the swim- ming world on fire his sophomore year and who since has been just another paddler, to provide the most heartening Wolverine performance. Big Gus, for the first time in two long years, indicated tonight that he is once again ready to scale the ladder from which he so disappoint- ingly and thumpingly toppled. Hard-pressed by Ohio State Capt. John Leitt and Michigan Capt. Dob- by Burton, Sharemet kept his early lead tonight and captured the 100 yard freestyle in 53.8, his best time of the current season. With Sharemet regaining his winning ways, the Wol- verine aggregation becomes more 'of a threat than ever to repeat as Big Ten and National champions. Skinner Wins Again Michigan's only individual national king, breastroker Jim Skinner, once again won with ease as he butter- flyed his way to victory in 2:26.9, too fast a pace for Ohio State's duo of Chuck Spangler and Leo Mamaliga. Reidl, Skinner and Sharemet teamed together to capture the open- ing 300 yard medley relay in 3:02.2, but the Maize and Blue 400 yard re- lay quartet lost to the Buckeyes, the winning time being 3:36.8. The only other event won by Ohio State was the 50 yard freestyle where Leitt edged Burton and Bruce Allen in 24.1. Ridin' The Crest 300-Yard Medley Relay: Michigan (Reidl, Skinner, G.

Gillis, Dance, Kemp Rejoin Hockey Team Braidford On Service Call To Canadian Army; Hull Is Declared Ineligible ' By STAN CLAMAGE With the addition of three 'bul- lets' to the scoring punch of the Michigan hockey team, prospects of better games and more victories are much brighter right now than they were some three months ago. Johnny Gillis, Bob Kemp and Bill; Dance compose a trio of puckmen that is sure to click in future Wol- verine puck battles. Gillis is a big and tough, and his appearance at a defensive position will hearten every Maize and Blue hockey follower. His experience at working at 'the last line of defense' is a mighty potent note at this stage of the season. Kemp, Dance Scoring Threats Kemp and Dance, while not built on the rugged side, are both scoring threats every minute they are on the ice. Their best assets are speed and experience-just what the hoc- key coach wants in his Christmas stocking. And it's still better late than never. But it isn't all good news that has greeted Coach Eddie Lowrey this past' week. Play-maker Johnny Braid- ford's services are now available to the Canadian Army-a loss that's not going to be too easy to take. De- fenseman Jimmy Hull, who held a starting berth in many of the past Wolverine battles, has been claimed by the fellow who spends his time recording scholastic averages. In. other words, Hull is now out of cir- culation for puck duties because of a newly acquired ineligibility stand- ing. Illini Hit Hard While the Michigan hockey team has set a new low in its mortality record, Illinois hasn't fared so well. Although no statisical data are available, some hard-working indi- vidual could take a slide-rule and show that Vic Heyliger's squad has set a new high in athletic mortali- ties. The loss of a major portion of their offensive punch may give the Wolverines an opportunity to sneak ahead and take the Big Ten title. Anyway, Saturday's game against the Paris A.C. in the Coliseum will give a good indication of what Wol- verine hockey fans can expect from here in. Varsity Matmen Prep To Meet Nebraska Squad Monday Night I By HOE SELTZER1 The special foot messenger bring-c ing the publicity material on the Ne- braska wrestling team direct from Lincoln fell down an open man-hole and drowned. So here's the best catch-as-catch-can dope we could dig up on the boys who meet the"Varsity here next Monday night:a One thing alone is certain. The hot shpt of the Nebraska team is their 145 pounder, Newton Copple. Newt is a junior and in the Midwest In- vitational at Ames. Iowa, a month ago he took the welterweight title. Then last Saturday he upset and out- pointed Iowa's pride and joy. Ed Kemp, in a dual meet. Strong At 155 Lbs. Newt has a brother, name of Ed, - who is himself no dub on the mat. Ed battled his way to the finals in the meet at Ames and then only grudgingly bowed to the national 155 pound champ from Oklahoma A & M. in an air-tight match. The only other Husker performer about whom much is known is heavy- weight Herb Jackson, whose 240 pounds are mainly adipose tissue. Herb reached the finals of the Mid- west Invitational, which speaks high- ly for his mat prowess since Clifft Keen names this the season's tough- est meet to date. On top of that Herb decisioned the Iowa heavyweight in the aforementioned dual meet to give the Huskers the second of their mea-' ger brace of victories. Huskers Lose To Iowa Which is to say the Nebraskas did not fare so well against the Hawk- eyes. In fact they lost 24-6, but one must take into account that Iowa is the present odds-on favorite to cop the Big Ten wrestling crown this season. It is the highly untrustworthy mea- suring stick of this meet with Iowa which must be the standard for eval- uating the remainder of the Husker ensemble. In any event it would ap- pear that the first three weights are woefully undermanned, since 121 pounder Meyer Euoka, featherweight Frank Messersmith and 136 lb. Ken- neth Niller were all tossed on their respective backs and pinned in short order by their Hawkeye adversaries. The Nebraska 165 pounder, George Cockle, was outpointed in the Iowa meet and that bare fact is alone Narrow Gives 28-Point Margin Team First Loss Dropping a match to Georgia Tech by a narrow 28-point margin, the University Naval ROTC rifle team was knocked from the ranks of the undefeated in an encounter with three other NROTC squads at the close of the last semester. Although beaten by Georgia Tech, the NROTC team, in postal matches fired on Jan. 31, conquered NROTC squads from Tulane, 920 to 900, and Colorado, 1,807 to 1,736. The team's record now stands at 11 wins, one defeat; and their credit is a victory over Minnesota, last year's NROTC champions, by a score of 1,866 to 1,788. Against Colorado and Georgia Tech, the team was led by Mort Hunter, '44, with a score of 371. Also firing for Michigan were Capt. Art Thomson, '44E, 368; Harry Miller, '44E, 368; Dave Anderson, '45A, 353; and Dick Wilkins, '45E, 947. Against Tulane, Hunter, Miller, Allen Lewis, '45E, Thomson and Anderson were on the firing line. The NROTC team, rated as one of the country's top-ranking squads, plans to challenge. Georgia Tech to another match, it was disclosed.

He may have been shellacked or it may have been a one-point decision. Finally, the light-heavyweight de- partment down Nebraska way ap- pears to be definitely feeble. Ray Starostka lost to his Iowa man, which fact alone would be virtually insig- nificant had his victor not been working his first match of the year and hence been relatively inexperi- enced.

Chi Psis Lead Qualifiers In FraternityRelay Meet Anchored by speedy Don Robinson, fleet sophomore back on the football team, Chi Psi won the qualifying round of the Fraternity relays which were held at Yost Field House last night. They were clocked for the 880-yard run in 1:39.8, approximately three seconds over the record. The three other teams which earned the right to compete for the title, to be run off during .the Notre Dame-Michigan meet here Feb. 20 were Phi Gamma Delta, Sigma Phi Epsilon and Phi Delta Theta. With the turn of the new semesteri the Intramural Department picks up where it left off. A half dozen tour- naments are now under way and more are soon to follow. Heading the list of events is the fraternity swimming final between Phi Delta Theta and Phi Kappa Psi which will be held at 8:30 p.m. to- day in the I-M Pool. Immediately fallowing Phi Kappa Psi will face Phi Gamma Delta in water polo to determine who will meet the Phi Delts in the finals of that sport. Turning to fraternity handball, a, new champion was crowned yester- day afternoon. Sigma Alpha Mu led by smooth-playing Mel Silver trounc- ed Theta Delta Chi, 3-0. Silver, by taking the measure of Bud Low, the Theta Delt's number one singles man with scores of 21-6 and 21-13, clinched victory for SAM. I-M KALEIDOSCOPE: Preview of the swimming final . . .

By BOB STAHL With the opening meet of the in- door track season scheduled for Sat- urday night at East Lansing, at which time the Wolverines encounter Michigan State and the Michigan Normal Hurons in a triangular con- test, Michigan's track mentor, Ken Doherty, is looking to his shot put- ters to supply much of the power necessary to turn back the vaunted' attack of the Hurons, who reputedly have one of the best teams in their history this year and may prove a strong threat to Wolverine suprem- acy in the state. The roster of the Normal squad presents a list of stars, any or all of whom might upset the proverbial apple cart and romp home to a vic- tory over the favored Wolverines. And if, by any quirk of fate or coin- cidence, all the Hurons pick this Sat- urday night to gang up op the Michi- gan crew, then it is not impossible that the Ypsi team might wrest the title away from the Wolverines. Whitey Hlad, the sensational Hur- on timber-topper, might come in with both the high and low hurdle events to his credit. , Joe Matyunas, Nor- mal's sophomore quarter-miler, might turn the trick on Michigan's Bobby Ufer in the 440, and Duane Zemper, the Huron distance star, might con- ceivably sweep both the mile and two-mile races. Thus it is that Mich- igan's coach is hoping for the best FRESHMEN Are you too puny to be an ath- lete? Do you have habes, scabes, and T.B.

Ostroot's best try so far this year is 45 feet 71/8 inches, but he has been constantly improving and Coach Doherty expects to reach his old mark very soon. Gene Hirsch is the only other ex- perienced shot-putter on the Wolver- ine squad. Also a junior, Hirsch was third man last year behind Bob Hook and Tommy Lawton, both of whom have graduated, and with a practice heave to his credit of almost 44 feet already this season, Gene can be counted on to give Ostroot a run for his money for the top spot on the squad. The other three Michigan shot- putting hopefuls have carried their weight and ability over to the cinder track from the football field. Big Merv Pregulman, Chuck Kennedy and Ted Denise have all done over 40 feet in practice and it is from these three that the thinclad coach expects to bolster his weight divi- sion. Pregulman earned his fresh- man numerals tossing the iron nug- get around last year and is the most promising prospect of the three gridders.
