Harmon Credits
Survival to His
Footbafll Days
Take it from First Lieut. Tom Har-
man, football training helps.
Back home on a brief leave for the
first time since Christmas, 1942, the
former Michigan All-American of
1939 and 1940 is convinced that it was
his gridiron and general athletic
training that made possible his sur-
vival of two airplane crashes in the
past year.
"I'll argue with anyone who says
sports should be eliminated now or at
any time," declared Harmon upon
his return here. "It is principally be-
cause of their earlier athletic train-
ing that our pilots are better than
those turned out by Germany and
Japan. They have learned early what
it means to fight out of a tough spot
and, boy, up there in the air the chips
are really clown."
Men Turn to Sports
"On every fighting front where I
have been our men have always turn-
ed immediately to sports for recrea-
tion and relaxation whenever they
had the opportunity and have played
everything for which they had equip-
ment. In China we had organized
leagues in basketball, baseball, and
volleyball and even had competition
in basketball with Chinese teams.
"To eliminate sports back home
would be to destroy the basis of that
interest and a great means of train-
ing which I am mighty thankful I
had. Without my years of football
and the hard knocks I received, I
never could have lived through the
South Americanjutngle last sprint;,
let alone get back to my China'base
after 32 days behind the Jap lines ii

Minnesota will bring its once-
beaten wrestling team here at 3 p.m.
Saturday to meet the undefeated$
Wolverines in a Conference match in
which Michigan is the pre-game
favorite.
Gophers Strength Unknown
The Gophers have only one letter-
man to use as a nucleus for this year's
squad, and that is Bill idworth of
football fame, in the heavyweight
division. The remainder of the team
is composed mainly of Navy men on{

mnatmen. Their main strength is in school wrestling as a member of the
the 155, 165, 175, andl hevyweight Robbinsdale High School wrestling
divisions.
Aster Outstanding
Minnesota boasts a strong wrestler
in Roddy Lister, 175-pounder, who
has defeated all three of his op-
ponents this year by falls. It will be
interesting to note whether Jim
Galles, Michigan 175-pound Confer-
ence champion, can break this win-
ning streak Saturday. Galles has al-
so won both of his matches by falls,
and this match shouldriprove to be the
team, winning the 175 pound state
title in his junior year and annexing
the heavyweight crown in his senior
year.
The probable line-up for Minne-
sota Saturday will find Clark Wen-
gard at 121 pounds, Peter Perkins
at 128 pounds, Wayne Broch in the
136-pound division, Sheldon Curry,
competing at 145 pounds, and Dick

I-M Cage Card
In order to work the intramural
program in better with the Army's
academic schedule, all Army intra-
mural basketball games will be played

The round robin tournament which

six companies have a team plus one
from the Reserves and one from Sta-
tion Complement.
Four games are played each night.
All games consist of four ten-minute
quarters. The officials are supplied
by the companies themselves. Each
company provides a referee and a
scorekeeper-timekeeper.
Captain B. W. Jennings is in
charge of the program, assisted by
Lt. Garrick of Company E and Lt.
Reizman of Company G, who act as
tournament officials.
Monday at 7:30 p.mn. Company U
meets Company F on court one, and
uhe Reserves play Conpany E on
court two. On court three, Station
Complement comes up against Co. C
and on court four, Company D plays
