tween the two powers of the nata-
torial world when Yale scored a mag-
nificent 59-16 triumph.
But Coach Matt Mann and his
Wolverine band are not convinced,
Angry only at themselves for theI
lacing they took from the Bulldogs,
firm in the belief that they are a
better crew than the Yale meet
showed them to be, the Maize and
Blue tankers are not yet beaten.
Mannators Primed
Grimly hopeful and furiously de-
termined, the Mannators are primed
for this battle more than they have
been all season. This is their only
chance to avenge the Yale defeat
and they intend to throw caution to
the winds in favor of putting every
ounce of power and speed into every
stroke and every kick. They have
made one promise-the wrath of
Michigan will test the might of Yale
to its utmost before the title will
change hands.
Chouteau Favorite
Yale's Rene Chouteau is an over-
whelming favorite to open the Eli
bid for victory in the first event of
the 1942 Collegiates, the final of the
1500 meter race tomorrow morning.
Chouteau will be hard pressed, how-
ever, by Ohio State's Jack Ryan,
Minnesota's Arnie Elchlepp and
Michigan's Walt Stewart.
Tomorrow afternoon the qualifying
heats in the 300 yard medley relay,
the 1500 yard backstroke, the 50 yard
free style and the 220 yard freestyle
will be run off. Then in the evening,
the finals of these events as well as
that of the low board diving will
write finis to the day's activities.
"Classiest Field"
For the race that has been singled
out as the one most likely to provide
the greatest amount of excitement,
the fans will have to wait until Sat-
urday. Then in the afternoon the
classiest field of 100 yard freestylers
that has been entered in a National
Collegiate meet for years will Tit the
water in the qualifying trials. That
night, the top six will vie for the title.
Howie Johnson of Yale, Gus Share-
met and Jack Patten of Michigan,

JIM SKINNER
defends crown

Ed Hall of Massachusetts State, Ed
Hueber of Penn, Stan Berabaeli of
Princeton and Harry Powlinson of
Stanford are just a sampling of the
big names in the swimming world
who will participate.
Skinner Defends Title
Also taking place on Saturday will
be both the qualifying and final
races in the 200 yard breaststroke,
where Wolverine Jim Skinner will
defend his championship, the high
board diving, the 400 yard freestyle
relay and the 440 yard freestyle.
Michigan and Yale give promise of
staging a terrific duel in that free-
style relay, and it is there that a rec-
ord is most expected to fall.f

Proceeds To Go To Army,
Relief; Second Attempt
For 250-Pound Giant

NEW YORK, March 26.--P)-For
the first time in the history of the
fight game, Uncle Sam will turn loose
one of his own military nephews to
fight for the heavyweight champion-
ship of the world tomorrow night.
And for the second time in less
than three months, Joe Louis (now
Buck Private J. Louis Barrow of Uncle'
Sam's Army) will defend that richest
of all fistic prizes for exactly nothing
-neither money, marbles nor chalk.
He will take off those heavy soldier
shoes, walk into Madison Square Gar-
den's ring at 10 p.m. (EWT) before
about 16,000 customers-well sprin-
kled with Army and Navy official
gold braid-and proceed to operate
on one Abraham Simon, a good-na-
tured, confident 250-pound giant from
Long Island, whom he chopped down
in 13 rounds just about a year ago.
Plenty For The Army
There should be somewhere between
$125,000 and $150,000 in the till by-
post-time, according to more-or-less
official communiques from Promoter
Mike Jacobs' ticket office outposts,
but neither Joe nor Mike will wind
up with a quarter out of the pot. The
chief collector will be Army Emerg-
ency Relief, the organization re-
cently set up to care for the needy
loved ones the boys leave behind
when they go off to the wars.
Best estimates are that somie $50,-
000 to $60,000 will be piled on the
Army relief bankroll from tomor-
row's tea party.
Last Victim Was Baer
That's the way it came out exactly
11 weeks ago tomorrow night when
Louis worked on the California sky-
scraper, Buddy Baer, for the benefit
of the Navy Relief Society. From
that one, the Navy fund collected
$89,000 of a $189,000 gate which was
built up by higher-priced tickets than
for tomorrow's scuffle.
On that occasion, the Brown Bomb-
er all but blew Buddy out of the ring
in less than three minutes for the
20th successful defense in his all-
time record run as king of the clout
industry. The next morning he fin-
ished breakfast and quietly went
down to the Army station to enlist.

bracket. The fellow getting the moldy
stare is Purdue's Mark Matovina, who
edged Ray for the Big Ten title in a
highly arbitrary referee's decision.
Ray particularly wants to get his
hooks on Matovina again, but be-
sides this Michigan State's Bo Jen-
nings may compete at 136, in which
event Deane will here undoubtedly
find his ruggedest opposition.
Johnson Faces Arndt
Considerable space has been pre-
viously devoted to describing the ti-
tanic duel which will ensue when our
Big Ten champ Johnny Johnson
faces Oklahoma A&M's national ti-
tleholder Buddy Arndt at 145 pounds.
This should be the battle which de-
cides the winner of the olive wreath,
and the foes appear today as evenly
matched as they were two years ago
when the shade of difference be-
tween them was all but impercepti-
ble.
Becker Means Business
Mary Becker has a familiar face
he wants to look up this weekend too.
It is that of Illinois' 155 pound Con-
ference champ, Ted Seabrooke. Mary
didn't get a crack at Captain Ted in
the Big Tens because he was nosed
out in a touch and go 7-6 affair early
in the playoffs. The Michigan man
intends to be sidetracked by no such
close shave stuff this time. He's al-
ready drawn a bead on Seabrooke
while at the same time he expects to
take great care not to be meanwhile
shot in the back by heavily armed
Vern Logan, Oklahoma's 155 /pound
national champ in 1940.
Courtright Ready
All season long Bill Courtright has
consistently looked infinitely better
on the Field House practice mats
than he has in competition. But now
all this week his dad, acting coach
Ray Courtright, has been snapping
him out of that game time lethargy,
and Ray now reports that when his
son steps out there to play with Big
Ten champ Norm Anthonisen of Ill-
inois and A&M's national titlist Vir-
gil Smith, it'll be nothing but prac-
tice to him. Practice in point winning
take-downs and match winning falls,
that is.
'Not To My Brudder'
Finally, not to mine own brudder I
shouldn't wish the task that faces
Capt. Jim Galles. First there's Wis-
consin's Johnny Roberts who beat

him out for the title in the Big Tens.
And then, and distinctly horribler,
comes along that fabulous Dick Bat-
tista of Penn, the guy who started
winning in his soph high school year
and has never been checked yet.
It is too bad that Al Wistert's wrist
was still too feeble to alow him to
enter the fray, because national
champ Len Levy of Minnesota is def-
initely shelved with a persistent ankle
hurt. This leaves the unlimited di-
vision pretty much wide open, with
Purdue's Conference champ Frank
Ruggieri having as good a chance to
cop the crown as the next guy.

First Contact Drill
Held By Gridders
Although spring football has yet
to pass the first-week mark, Coach
Fritz Crisler sent his charges
through their first contact drill of
the infant season.
Approaching a full-scrimmage
drill, the play was a starter for
drawing out staleness accumulated
by many of the men over the win-
ter. Settled in the Navy Reserve,
Capt. George Ceithaml led his
team from his customary quarter-
back position.
One thing sure, the gridders
have still plenty to go before they
will be ready for the hard, long
hours of play which follow.

The I-M Deparment had its ath-
letic hands full last night with big
events taking place on the Field
House track and in the Sports Build-
ing Pool. Over at the Yost Field
House the interfraternity indoor
track and field meet was the show
with Phi Gamma Delta ending up in
top spot with 22 points but only after
being closely pressed by a hard run-
ning bunch of lads from Sigma Phi
Epsilon, who fell just short with an
S18 point total.
