Michigan's squad last year, took the
lead in the 200-yard free style and
remained out in front until he cross-
ed the finish line. However, a close
battle was being fought for' second
place between Church and Pylkas.
The Wolverine merman headed his
opponent until the last lap, when
Pylkas forged ahead in a burst of
speed to nose out Church.
Both first and second places went
to Great Lakes in the fancy diving
competition. Carl Quaintance per-
formed admirably on the spring-
board to nose out his teammate, Ned
Diefendorf, former Big Ten champ
and member of last year's Wolver-
ine swimming team.
Church, Fries Place ,
The Maize and Blue's stellar short
distance free stylers, Fries and
Church, churned easily to the one
and two slots in the 100-yard free
style, while the third place berth
went to Navy man Dowell:
In the 150-yard backstroke event,
Jack Munson, a Maize and Blue
natator, lead throughout the entire
tilt, but lost the lead in the last lap
to Bluejacket contestant Everett Tur-
Pulakus, Zimmerman, of Michigan,
and Pylkas finished in that order in
the 440-yard free style clash. The
400-yard relay, final event of the
evening, went to the Wolverine team
of Breen, Church, Fries, and Pulford.

Boilermakers
Surprise Ohio
State, 37-36
Last-Minute Basket by
Purdue Provides Upset
By The Associated Press
LAFAYETTE, Ind., Jan. 6-Pur-
due's underdog Boilermakers over-
came an early 10-3 deficit to edge out
Ohio State in their Western Confer
ence basketball opener tonight, 37-3.
The Boilermakers treated nearly
7,000 fans to a brilliant defensive
display as they handed the defending
champions their first Conference set-
back in two games this season. Un-
able to match the tremendous height
of the visitors, Purdue played a cau
tious possession wgne throughout,
holding the bal six minutes ,without
a shot just before the half ended.
Guard Charlie Haag was the main
cog in the stout Purdue defense. Haag
concentrated on Don Orate, the
Buckeye key man, and held him
pointless. Only Arnold (Stilts) Risen
and Paul Huston were able to count
more than a half dozen points for
Ohio State.
A field goal by Haag gave Purdue
its first lead at 18-16, and Coach
Ward Lambert's charges stalled out
the remainder of the first period,
which ended, Purdue 22, Ohio State
19.
Ohio State regained the lead in the
early stages of the second half, 23-
22, on Risen's rebounds and eventu-
ally enjoyed a 27-23 margin. Purdue
forged back in front at 29 to 27, how-
ever, and withstood the Buckeyes'
closing rush.
With two minutes remaining, Jack
Dugger gave Ohio State a 36-35 lead
on a free throw, but Anderson con-
nected from the field and Purdue held
out to the end.
Iowa Beats Gophers,
41-34, in Big Ten Tilt
IOWA CITY, Ia., Jan. 6-(P)-The
undefeated Iowa basketball team, its
high-scoring attack almost com-
pletely absent, opened its bid for the
Western Conference championship
tonight with a 41-34 victory over
Minnesota's surprisingly tough Goph-
ers.
Rarely did the Iowa fast break go
into high gear and the Hawks were
far short of their 73-point average
in six previous games. They collect-
ed 17 points on free throws
Great Lakes Defeats
Iish Quintet, 59-58
GREAT LAKES, Ill., Jan. 6.-
()-Two long baskets by Mickey
McGuire in the last three minutes
gave the Great Lakes Bluejackets a
59-58 victory over Notre Dame's bas-
ketball team here tonight.
McGuire's two counters came after
Johnny Dee, who tallied 25 points
for the Irish, had put Great Lakes
behind, 57-55. Then the former St.
John's of Brooklyn star tossed in the
two goals while Dee added a free
throw for Notre Dame.
The Bluejackets, who took a 10-4'
lead early in the game, were ahead
most of the way, and held a 30-27
margin at the half.

Sports Hard Hit by President's

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6-President
Franklin D. Roosevqlt today appeared
to have put the blinkers on the green
light he issued to sports three years
ago this month.
As a result of the President's ad-
dress to Congress urging the enact-
ment of a legislation making all
4-F's available in "whatever capa-
city is best for the war effort," sports
faces a dreary future.
Three years ago President Roose-

Mountain Landis, Baseball's High
Commissioner, expressed his personal
rather than official point of view,
urging the national game to continue
in wartime.
Roosevelt's latest stand, however,
might spell the end of professional
sports for the duration, if Congress!
adopts his suggestion. In full accord
with War Mobilization Director James
F. Byrnes, whose request last Dec.
23 that all 4-F's be re-examined for
duty either in the armed forces or
in war jobs, Roosevelt's wish paral-
lels War Secretary Newton D. Baker's
"work or fight" order of 1918 which,
disrupted baseball in the waning days
of World War I.
Baseball Hardest Hit
Only three days ago, Jan. 3, horse
and dog tracks were closed at the
request of Byrnes.
Pro sports are studded with many.
men rejected by the Army and Navy
doctors for physical disabilities. Ma-£
jor League Baseball, with 281 of its
400 players in 4-F, will be hardest
hit. With spring training only two
months off, club owners are at a loss
as to what to do.g
Football, with more than half its
personnel either in 4-F or Army and
Navy dischargees, is not too alarmed
as it has several added months in
which to mark time and hope for
something to happen as the year
lengthens to change the picture.
Golf and boxing will also be hard
hit, with such link stars as Byron
Nelson and Jug McSpaden, two of
the leading money winners of 1944,
in the 4-F group. Boxers either in
4-F or discharged from the services
include Willie Pep; featherweight
champion, Sugar Ray Robinson,
Bobby Ruffin, Jimmy Bivins and Ken
Overlin.
College Athletics, supported in the
main by pre-draft age athletes and
Naval Trainees would be affected to
some degree by the loss of 4-F's or
the Universal Service Act, asked by
the President.
