DHUtSIYA, MA t, ~4 4943 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAG2 Swimming, Track, Mat Teams Leave for Big Ten Meets Matmen Battle For Wrestling Championships By BUD LOW Coach Ray Courtright and eight matmen leave today for Evanston where the Western Conference wrestling championships will begin tomorrow morning in Patten gymna- sium and continue through Saturday. It was announced last night that heavyweight Johnny Greene would wrestle in the 175-pound class in or- der to strengthen the team's chances to dethrone Purdue, the defending champions. Mack Moves Down Moving Greene down one division forced Courtright to enter Hugh Mack in the 165-pound bracket. Pete Speek. 155-pounder, suffered an injury to his shoulder in practice yesterday and may not be able to compete. If this be the case, then Allen will have to take off a few pounds and wrestle at 155. Captain Manley Johnson, 145 pounds of dynamite, is all alone in his class and should successfully de- fend his crowd without much diffi- culty. New Men Entered This meet will mark' the debut of two new men, Mort Kline and Chip Warrick, who have worked hard for the chance they deserve. Kline will wrestle at 136, and what he lacks in experience, he makes up in determi- nation and courage. Warrick takes the honors for just plain hard work. A little weak from losing over thirty pounds since the beginning of the season, Chip should, nevertheless, provide plenty of trouble for the opposition in the 128-pound slot. ..Last on the list, but first in wrestl- ing ability and confidence, is Dick Kopel. Put your money on him to win the 121-pound crown, BRETV Pucksters Face Illinois In Local Battle Tonight By WALT KLEE Tonight's Michigan-Illinois hockey game probably won't be the most evenly matched contest, but it will be the roughest, most interesting game seen on local ice this season. The tilt probably will develop into the continuation of the private battle between Michigan's Bob Derleth and Bob Stenberg, and Illinois' George Balestri and Amo Bessone. The Michigan defense is anxious to show the home fans that they can check just as hard and as effectively as can the Illini's captain and partner. Last week Stenberg and Glenn Rolle, Illini wing, started a feud to see who could knock the other down the hardest; things coming to a cli- max when the two men started to fight in the middle of the ice. This grudge, along with the one between Derleth and Bessone, almost assures another general melee on the ice, either tonight or Saturday, when the two teams close the season. Wolverines Prepared All week the two Wolverines have been getting ready to renew their private fights with the Illini and have promised to give out more than they take. The fiery Stenberg even hopes for the outbreak of fisticuffs so that he can get back at the Illini that tapped him on the back with a stick during the fight last Saturday. Coach Ed Lowrey has been having the team practice getting the puck out of Michigan ice after a face-off near the Michigan nets. He hopes that this practice will avert several Illinois scores. Over half of .the op- ponents' scores this season have tak- en place after a face-off, when an opposing forWard has been able to send the puck flying past Hank Loud before any defense has been formed. The Michigan first.line, Bill Dance, Roy Bradley, and Gordon Anderson, has been held to three goals in the last three games. It scored three times here against Minnesota; but could not dent Karakas for a goal in either game last week. Michigan, while it has not yet scored a single goal on the road, has yet to be held scoreless on home ice. It has an average of slightly more than two goals a game for the games played at the Coliseum. The pucksters are relying on a fast break-away to be their main scoring punch. After a face-off Dance hopes to pass the puck to Derleth or Sten- berg who will fire the puck to Brad- ley or Anderson as they are skating down ice before the Illinois defense- men can get down to be of help to goalie Tom Karakas. Defense Rugged The Michigan defense has proven that it can take care of the fleet Henry Coupe, Glenn Rolle, and Bucky Benson as they bring the puck down into Wolverine territory. Hank Loud, bydmaking 110 stops over last week-end, has proven that he can hold up his end of the re- sponsibility. If the Michigan defense can get the puck out from in front of Loud after he has blocked a shot, the home team may hold the Illini down to where a goal or two may mean victory for the home team.

From all indications the battle for the title will narrow down to a fight between the Wolverines and the Buckeyes of Ohio State, and ever, optimistic Matt Mann is already pre- dicting a victory for the Maize and Blue. There will be a private duel be- tween a Wolverine and a Buckeye, too. It'll be in the 220-yard free- style, where Michigan's Captain Johnny Patten and Ohio State's Keo Nakama are expected to battle it out for top honors. The race will be the third and deciding match between the two, each having defeated the other in a dual meet. In the first meet between the schools, which took place in Michi- gan's pool, Patten upset Nakama, winning by two strokes and timed in 2:10.6, three full seconds better than the Big Ten record. But in the clash at Ohio the tables were turned. The Hawaiian touched out Patten to even their personal score. His time in this race was 2:12.7, also faster than the Big'Ten record, but over two seconds slower than the Michigan captain's time in the first meet. The Wolverines making the trip to the Windy City are Captain Patten, Alex Canja, Lou Haughey, Harry Holiday, Irv Einbinder, Jim Skinner, Chuck Fries, John McCarthy, Walt Stewart, Mert Church, and Ace Cory.

When Prof. Phil Diamond hesi- tates to draw up a dope sheet on this year's Big Ten indoor track and field meet at Chicago tomorrow and Saturday you can be quite certain that any prediction will be a wild guess at the most. Draft, call of the armed forces, and uncertain injuries to key per- formers notwithstanding, we're go- ing to pick Michigan to edge out Wisconsin with Illinois battling the defending champion Ohio State squad for third place. Let's discount what the boys might do at Chicago. Let's forget that up- sets can and will occur. Let's sup-1 pose that all squads are intact andj at full strength. Let's base our pre- dictions on actual times and dis- tances turned in this season by the athletes competing. Here is our pre- diction on that factual and rather impractical basis. a .

Only unanimous choice was Andy Phillip, who averaged 21.2 points a game to rip apart Conference scor- ing records while helping power the Illini to their second successive championship. Averaging 63 points in their 12 games and becoming the first unde- feated title winner in 13 years, Illi- nois also was represented by center Art Mathisen and guards Jack Smi- ley and .Gene Vance. Menke Handicapped The fifth member of this brilliant unit, forward Ken Menke, was handi- capped half the season with an in- jured foot, and although making a great showing by scoring 43 points in his last two contests, was dropped to the honorable mention list in the balloting. Northwestern's Otto Graham, who has averaged 16 points through 11 games, joined Phillip at forward on the first lineup, making it bristle with scoring possibilities. Phillip Only Repeater . Handy Andy, who was elected cap- tain of next season's team by his mates today and also was chosen the team's most valuable player for the second straight year, was the only repeater from the 1942 All Stars. The versatile cager, regarded as one of the best ever to be turned out in the midwest, was credited with another rarity-that of being chosen All-Con- ference guard last year and All-Con- ference forward this time. ES RED WINGS HOLD LEAD DETROIt, March 3. -(AP)- The Detroit Red Wings, arriving home with a one-point lead in the National Hockey League race, discovered they can clinch the title by breaking even in their remaining six games.

Preparing a complete meal in the oven at one time is economical: The same amount of elec- tricity cooks meat, potatoes, vegetables and a pud- ding. . . * Use LOW heat to finish most of your surface cooking, after foods have reached the steam- ing point. When the cooking operation is almost completed, the heat may be turned completely OFF. Stored heat in the unit finishes the cooking opera. tion. * * * Don't waste electricity heating up a large quantity of water when cooking vegetables: Half- a-cup of water is ample. LIGHTING. Dust steals light and wastes electricity. Wipe all lamp bulbs frequently, also reflector bowls and ceiling fixtures. Use the right size lamp in the right socket. Dark colored lamp shades soak up light. Use light-colored shades wherever possible, or try fitting dark shades with a white lining. APPLIANCES. Don't leave appliances turned on when temporarily not in use (your electric iron or toaster, for example). Pull the plug, and connect the appliance again later when you are ready to use it. Defrost your refrigerator regularly. Don't over- crowd your refrigerator. Unless the motor is hermet- ically sealed, have it oiled and inspected regularly. Be sure to locate your refrigerator away from heat sources, and allow adequate air circulation all around the refrigerator.
