I,,;ATURDAY 17-F-BRUJARZT, jC 1942 THE IMICHIGAN DAILY I Natators Beat W ildcats, 52-32; Sextet Plays Here Tonight n T-Bone Martin Is Vanquished By NU Diver Northwestern's Fahrbach Takes Both Freestyle Sprints ; Patten Wins (Continued from Page 1) Martin repeated his triumph over Ohio State's brilliant springboard duo of Frank Dempsey and Charlie Batterman, and. on the basis of his season's performances the close-knit Michigan senior was expected to romp all over the Wildcat entry. But tonight Jaynes was just too much for the boy who was being touted as the coming national titleholder, and when the last splash had subsided the slight Northwestern sophomore had accomplished the seemingly impos- sible. Fahrbach Sweeps Sprints Likewise individual scoring honors must be reserved for a Purple color- bearer, Capt. Dick Fahrbach. The speedy Northwestern sprinter won a double victory from the Wolverine invaders, capturing the 50 yard free- style in 24 seconds flat and the 100 yard event in 53.5. Michigan Capt. Dobby Burton finished a close sec- ond to the Wildcat leader in the latter battle and third in the former. Jack Patten, Maize and Blue dis- tance ace, lived up to all his glowing notices as he churned to an easy 2:13.8 win in the 220 freestyle and came from behind as the Wolverine anchor man in the 400 yard freestyle relay to give his mates their second relay victory. Previously the Michi- gan trio of Ted Horlenko, Jim Skin- ner and Gus Sharemet had won the 300 yard medley relay event in 3:02.7. Reidl And Skinner Win Dick Reidl and Skinner had little trouble in their specialties, copping the 150 yard backstroke and 200 yard breaststroke respectively. Reidl 'e winning time was 1:40.3 while Skin- ner required 2:29.4 for his victory. Walt Stewart won the 440 yard free- style for Michigan, lapping his ri- vals twice for his 5:05.6 time. The Wolverines will board their automobile caravan for Lafayette to- morrow, facing Dick Papenguth'' Purdue squad tomorrow night. The Boilermakers, led by freestyler Capt. Dick Kratzer and breast-stroker Joe Williamson, have been priming for an upset but the Wolverines will once again hit the water as odds on fav- orites. They will return to Ann Arbor Sunday. Gagers Face Illin; Thinclads Open Season League-Leading Illinois Quintet Favored To TopW olverine Five. (Continued from Page 1) weakened and the Orange and Blue strengthened. Lost from the ranks of the Maize and Blue is sophomore Ralph Gibert who played a major role in keeping Michigan in the running in the last Illini battle. Added to this is the fact that Leo Doyle, stellar Wolverine guard who has played almost the full time of all Michigan's Conference games, will not even be able to see action. Doyle injured his eye in the Michigan- Michigan State game last Wednesday night and was still confined to the University Hospital today. Illinois, on the other hand, has been greatly strengthened by the re- turn of Henry Sachs, ace guard of the 1939-40 season. Sachs became in- eligible in January of 1941 and drop- ped out of school. He re-entered in September and, according to the Big Ten rules, was forced to maintain a certain scholastic average over the first semester before he was per- mitted to play again. Michigan has won only three Big Ten games this year, but all of them have been upsets of the first order. First, Northwestern was beaten, 34- 32, on the Wildcats' home floor; next came a 53-39 win over Ohio State, fresh from a 54-52 victory over troub- lesome Iowa and an overwhblming 51-41 triumph over Northwestern; and finally Minnesota fell, 34-32, in a game which was tied six times, which saw neither team score for over four of the last five minutes until finally Michigan sunk the win- ning goal with 30 seconds to play. Up until the Indiana game last Monday night, Illinois had been bowling over opponent, after oppo- nent and has now scored 379 potnts in eight Conference tilts. Big guns of this sharp-shooting offensive have Conn Defeats Zale NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-(A)-Like :r kid with a new toy he found under ais Christmas tree, Billy Conn )layed with little Tony Zale for a lozen rounds tonight and galloped .o an easy decision in Madison Square 3arden. Conn weighed 1753/4; Zale 164%. been Andy Phillip, sophomore guard who has hit the hoop for 87 points, and Ken Menke, sophomore forward who was picked for all-state honors during his high school days and who has scored 75 points. Coach Bennie Oosterbaan of the Michigan team hasn't decided whom he will start in tomorrow's contest. He was definitely sure that Capt. Bill Cartmill would be at one of the for- ward positions and that Mandler would hold down his usual spot at center. Either Mel ComingBob Shemky or Wally Spreen will hold down the other forward position, with Comin having the edge over his sophomore teammates. Doyle, if his eye has healed sufficiently enough to allow him to play, will be at one guard spot, with either Bill MacConnachie, Mor- rie Bikoff or Don Holman teaming with him as the other guard. Doug Mills, Orange and Blue cage coach, indicated he would stick to his usual five-Menke and Jack Smiley at forwards, Vic Wukovits at center and Phillip and Gene Vance at guards. Of this starting team, only Wukovits is a senior, the other four all sophomores. Matmen Clash With Nebraska Wrestling Meet To Follow Basketball Tilt Monday By HOE SELTZER Just a reminder this is, but anyone who leaves the Field House after the basketball game Monday night will have missed half the show. A plenty snappy wrestling encounter between Michigan and Nebraska being on the docket immediately after the Wolver- ine and Hoosier cakers have had their say. You may recall that to date the Varsity has won, tied and lost one each against teams which provided the very bitterest of acid tests for a Wolverine ensemble secretly nour- ishing Big Ten title aspirations. One other match, a breather, they also copped, in breather style. But that was just, as one might say, last semester's team. Now, as a result of the annual inter-semester coup d'etat there have been men lost and there have been men gained, and yesterday Coach Cliff Keen fin- ally pulled his head out of the sand and cautiously looked around to as- certain how cruelly fate had double- dealt him. Whereupon the jaw opened and the eye glazed. For he 'found that in- stead of leaving the accustomed de- struction in its wake the perennial upheaval had unbelievably bared a bright and shining gold mine. Which simply means that the new wrestling team is even better than the old. (Continued from Page 1) Chuck Pinney, star sophomore tim- ber-topper, had injured his foot in practice, which would force him out of competition for a few days, and Capt. Al Piel. the team's No. 1 sprint- er, also suffering from an injured foot, had not recovered sufficiently{ to allow him to take part in today's activities. And, if that were not enough, Joe Leahy and Bud Byerley, hurdlers, and John Roxborough, sophomore half-miler, have all sustained injuries in practice which will keep them at home. In spite of this nefarious attack by the injury jinx, however, and the fact that the Michigan Normal Hur-j meet. Naturally, the margin of vic- tory will not be so great as other- wise expected, but Michigan's cinder squad will probably have too much balanced power for its intrastate op- ponents to overcome. With Pinney out of competition, an added task falls on the capable shoulders of Wolverine Frank Mc- Carthy. Originally slated to take part in the high hurdles, the high jump, and broad jump events, Mc- Carthy will now have to back up Al Thomas at the low hurdles also. The husky timber-topper can be count- ed on to give the favorite, Spartan Whitey Hlad, a run for his money in both the highs and the lows. Ufer Vs. Matyunas All eyes this afternoon will be focused on the open quarter-mile race, which promises to be one of the closest contests ever seen in Michi- gan State's Jennison Field House. The Wolverines' ace 440 man, Bob Ufer, who has been enjoying the best season of his career so far this year, will run against the Hurons' sensational sophomore, Joe Matyun- as, and nobody has presumed yet to predict the winner of the race. Matyunas has never run against Ufer before, so no comparison can be made in that way. Last spring, however, in his freshman year, the Huron Flash accomplished what was almost the impossible by defeating Warren Breidenbach, Michigan's all- time quarter-mile champion, and the pride of Michigan Normal has dis- played just as much ability in pre- vious meets this year. GOLF NOTICE Varsity and freshman golfers please report any time after 1:30 p.m. Monday at the golf nets in the Sports Building. Ray Courtright, Coach. Injury Jinx Hits Track Team; Michigan Still Favored To Win Hockey Squad Set' For Game WithParis A.C. (Continued fr Page 1) ny Gillis taking over the starboard side on the back line. Teaming up with Ed Reichert, Gillis will probably be bouncing the charging opposition against the boards during a majority of the battle. The other two reasons-Bob Kemp and Bill Dance-will team up with Roy Bradley for front linechores. This trio will open the attack, with Goldsmith, Bob Collins and Max Bahrych ready for immediate relief duty. This marks the first time this season that Lowrey is able to have two capable front lines ready for ac- tive service. New Third Line The Wolverines will also have a third line which can be used-John Corson, Doug Hillman and possibly Jim Claypool. With these reserves awaiting action, it is unlikely that Michigan will be as greatly hampered by tiring players as in previous con- tests. In the nets, as usual, will be Hank Loud who has turned in fine work in all of the past games. Averaging well over 40 saves per game, Loud has been one of the busiest men on the ice. With a better balanced team in front of him, he will be in a better position to again turn in a sparkling game. Familiar Paris Puckmen Of the eleven-man traveling squad, at least three of the Paris puckmen will be familiar to Michigan hockey followers. Husky Scotty Martin will be one of the most important offen- sive threats that the visitors will have to offer. He's fast and a capable stick-handler. Two other men who have played here before are theTorti brothers, John and Tony, both defensemen. All three played here last year with the strong Brantford A.C. While with Brantford, they helped the Canadians defeat Michigan, 3-0. Tonight they are with a team who beat the Wol- verines 7-3 last year. THE PROBABLE Michigan Pos.

SEA3 f w L k Cornered from the Deep - and Skillfully Prepared It takes our clever cooks to talk to these delicacies of the deep as they prepare them with knowing skill . . . in order to get the very best-of-flavor results. Come for oysters, or lobster, or a glorious fish dinner - and say frankly whether you've ever tasted the likes before. TAKE the service enlistments of several Illinois hockey players; toss in a few Orange and Blue ineh- gibilities; add a trio of newly-eligible Michigan ice performers; mix well and you may have the formula for a Wolverine Big Ten puck champion- ship. Michigan hockey players are def- initely talking title. At present- halfway through the Conference campaign-they are occupying a drafty position in the cellar of the three-team loop. But from Capt. Paul Goldsmith right down to the last substitute, or even Bill McLeod, junior manager, they are convinced they have an excellent, though ad- mittedly outside, chance to top the riddled Illini and Minnesota in the title scramble. Here are the circumstances leading up to this conclusion, which a month ago would have been hailed as .a folly superior even to a Philadelphia Phil- lies fan betting on his team to sweep four straight in the World Series- and offering odds: 1Misfortune came in several doses for the fast-skating Illini, one of the two best collegiate sextets in the nation. After crushing Michigan twice last semester, Vic Heyliger's Indians lost seven of their aces in two weeks. First blow came when Roland DePaul, who dented the Michigan nets four times in one game, and Mario Palazzari withdrew from school to play pro hockey with Akron, a farm club of the Cleveland Barons. Next Lou Ferronti, a sophomore forward, and Joe Brooks, a sopho- more defenseman, failed to clear scholastic barriers. Bibbs Miller was called home by his draft board to enter army service. Russ Priest- ley, a second line forward, also suffered academic deficiencies. ' Then came climax and anti-cli- max. Star left wing Aldo Palazzari, Mario's brother, was also sidelined by the dean's office, leaving only eight eligible Illini, including a pair of goalies. Final straw was the first semester graduation of Illinois' stu- dent manager. 2 Michigan, on the other hand, benefited to a yet-undetermined extent from final exams. The testst will come tonight at the Coliseum when Paris A.C. brings another strong Canadian crew to shove the new Wolverine lineup under intensive fire. John Gillis, hard-checking de- fenseman, Bob Kemp and Bill Dance, fast-skating wings-these are the three performers who are expected to lead the Wolverines out of the morass of mediocrity inrwhich they1 have floundered thus far. '. A third condition must also be The schedule-makers offer Mich- igan two more games with each Illinois and Minnesota. At present the Indians hold two Big Ten wins, the Gophers have a record of one and one, while the Maize and Blue's losses outbalance the wins, three to one. Thus, in order to win the championship Michigan must win all remaining four Conference clashes. AN INDICATION of just how pos- sible this may be can be found in the statistics of the Illinois-Mich- igan Tech series. Before the Indians were weakened, they trounced the Miners twice by large scores. Last week Tech tied them once, 2-2, and won the second game, 4-3. Michi- gan, before it regained ineligible strength, tied Tech once and lost a close decision. The tipoff however, will come to- night at the Colisem when the re- juvenated Wolverine lineup under- goes its initial baptism.
