Led by Bill Smith, who unofficially
broke two world's records and came
within one-tenth of a second of a
third, Great Lakes easily downed the
Wolverine swimmers last night, 48-36,
as Michigan could do no better than
take two firsts, one more than last
week.
Smith, world's fastest swimmer,
came within one-tenth of a second
of his own record by capturing the
220 in 2:07.8. On the way to victory,,
the Hawaiian speedster broke his'
own world's 200-yard record of 1:56.7
by churning through the water in
1:55. He also broke Walter Spence's
150-yard record of 1:23.8 by three-

only one event, the 440, failed to

Sailors Start Fast
The Bluejackets got off to a flying
start by taking the 300-yard medley

mer Michigan captain, won the event
for the Sailors by outsprinting Ace

straight victories in Western Confer-

Wolverines, 51 to 35, tonight before
7,000 fans.
Ward Lambert's fast-improving
Purdue five, forced to come from be-
hind in an overtime session to win,
46 to 44 last night, battled into an
18 to 16 advantage at the end of a
nip-and-tuck first half and then
deluged the Wolverines with field
goals to clinch it in the second stan-
za.
Forcing the play and stealing the
ball continually throughout the sec-
ond half, Purdue raced into a 37 to
22 lead midway in the period and
coasted home with reserves on the
floor.
A renewal of the scoring duel be-
tween Michigan's Dave Strack and
Purdue's Paul Hoffman highlighted
the contest, with Strack finally tak-
ing offensive honors with 14 points.
Hoffman had 13.

NEW YORtK, Jan. 2.!-Wl
liam Malcolm Dickey, the ganging
Arkansan who has been a fixture as
the New York Yankee catcher for 15
years, today was selected as the play-
er of the year by the New York
Chapter of the Baseball Writers' As-
sociation.
He will receive the award at the
annual dinner of the chapter in
New York's lctEl Coniiudore un
Sunday, Feb. 6.
Dickey, fourteenth recipient of the
trophy which last year went to Ted
Williams of the Boston Red Sox, is
the first catcher to make the grade.
Thirty-seven years old and a fath-
er, Dickey will report to Manager
Joe McCarthy of the Yanks in March

for his seventeenth campaign with
the Bronx Bombers.
During the long career he estab-
Iished a major league mark for
catching 100 or more games in 13
consecutive seasons and in addition
holds numerous field and batting
marks.
Although he played in only 85
games last season after being side-
lined twice by injuries, he was third
in the American League's batting
roster with an average of .351. His
prowess at the plate has enabled him
to establish such marks as clouting
three homers in a single game, July
26, 1939 and bashing homers with the
bases loaded in consecutive games at
the expense of the Chicago White
Sox on Aug. 3 and 4, 1937.

Ohio State 42-40
EVANSTON, Ill., Jan. 22. - .1 1) -
Northwestern knocked Ohio State
out of the Big Ten's unbeaten ranks
tonight, 42 to 40, after leading all the
way.
It was Ohio's first Conference de-
feat in three games and the Wild-
cats' fourth success in as many ef-
forts.°
Superior floor work in grabbing
the ball off the backboards enabled
Northwestern to overcome the Buck-
eye's advantage in height, Otto
Graham, George Felt, and Nick Vo-
dick proved especially adept at this
maneuver to give the Wildcats an
8-0 lead after eight minutes of the
game.
Vodick paced the Northern attack
with 16 points, and Don Grate led
the Buckeyes with 12.

ok Good in Squad Meet

By HANK MANTIO
Michigan's grapplers carne
through their fourth intra-squad
match of the season in fine fashion
yesterday.
Bob Gittins started the ball rolling
as he took a close 5-4 win from Dick
Freeman. George Mc Intyre then
spilled Lou Nielson in another close
battle. McIntyre and Nielson were
tied with three all at the end of their

scheduled time, but George had a
two point riding advantage and won
the match.
Probably the most exciting match
of. the day saw Hugh Wilson compile
an 11-8 advantage against Chip
Warrick. Chip gave away 20-pounds
to his adversary and made a great
battle out of it. George Curtis then
won a decision over Lowell Oberly,
who also gave up 15-pounds to his

I -

WHO IS MAKING
THE GREATEST SACRIFICE ?

opponent. The score of this match
was 6-0.
After a short rest, Warrick and
Wilson wrestled again. Chip held to
a 5-5 tic by Alan Uolcombe and
Hugh won hi > recond ma!ch of the
day, this one over Ed Atkins, a new-
comer this year, who made a very
good showing while going down in
defeat.
Jim Galles wrested c -final
match of the day agansti Lou Wheel-
er, 220-pound heavyweight. Jim was
outweighed by 45 pounrls, but his su-
perior experience enabled him to
come through with a clear-cut de-
cision over his heavier opponent.
Corky stated that his squad looked
a little stale, and he feels that he is
working the boys a little too hard, so
he is going to give some of them a
much needed rest.
The intra-squad meet yesterday
showed very few mistakes by the
matmen, indicating that they have
come a long way since the start of
the campaign, and that they are
ready for any of the clediled meets.
This coming wek will find the
grapplers settling down to get ready
for their regularly scheduled meets,
the first of which will find the Boil-
ermakers coming to Ann Arbor this
Saturday.

from an "overdose of ro-

sidered by some a fault, by
others, a "Good Thing."

H-Ic said. "I bear no ill will
for the Russian people. In
my opinion they are the
most big-hear ted, musical-
ly-minded individuals in
the world. Their composers
today are doing excellent
work. i have just recently
received letters from Shos-

forming me of some new
compositipns which they
are writing. However, we
must bear in mind that
Russia is still an autocratic
iation. in which freedom
as it is known ni this coun-
try does not exist. The re-

which stated that Britain
was going to make a sep-

illustration of how the
press is used there merely
as an instrument of gov-

Think that one over before you say, "I can't

Better $200, $300, $500. You can afford it,
