Fighting Illini Expected
To Put Up Strong Battle
Kirk, All-Conference Guard, Delaney Return
To Top Form for All-Important Confiest
By BILL Tq*ULLENDORE
Seeking its third Western Conference win in four starts and also its
third in succession, Coach Bennie Osterbaan's basketball team will entertain
the University of Illinois at 7:30 p. m. today in Yost Field House.
Tonight's game will be the second in eight days between the two
schools, Michigan having taken a 43-38 decision from the Illini last
Saturday at Champaign. The latter contest was Illinois' first outing
in the Big Ten, and Coach Doug Mills' crew has not played since.
Both teams will have their backsf --- --

The Intra-Mural basketball season
swings into its second week this af-
ternoon as all leagues appear defi-
nitely decided upon.
Last week's games found that
many teams had come through with
strong aggregations and all the
leagues appear to be in for hard
seasons before a champion is crown-
ed. And, although the leagues are
only a week old some definite idea of
the strength of each team has been
reached.
Today's games are slated as fol-
lows:
Service League-1:30; Naval, Sup-
ply vs. Rangers (court 1), Sange-
nerrs vs. Fourth Lloyd (court 2),
Company C vs. RONAGS (court 3),
and Navy Bat. 1 vs. Sigma Chi (court
4).
Professional Fraternity League-
2:30; Delta Tau Delta vs. Phi Chi
(court 1), Sigma Alpha Epsilon vs.
Xi Psi Phi (court 2), Delta Sigma
Delta vs. Nu Sigma Nu (court 3) and
Phi Rho Sigma vs. Alpha Kappa
Kappa (court 4).
General Fraternity League-3:30;,
Zeta Beta Tau vs. Sigma Chi (court
1), Phi Sigma Delta vs. Phi Delta
Theta (court 2), Alpha Tau Omega
vs. Delta Kappa Epsilon (court 3),
and Sigma Phi Epsilon vs. Lambda
Chi Alpha (court 4).
Independent League- 4:30; Hi-
Temps vs. Golden Bears (court 1),
and Robert Owen vs. Rebels (court
2).
High scorer from all of last Satur-
day's games was Bob Youngdahl who
led the Rebels to victory over Hi-
Temps, garnering thirteen field goals
for a total of 26 points. Close behind
him in point grabbing. was Morris
Hill, of Sigma Chi, who completed
twelve field goals.
The Residence Hall League which
is further advanced than any of the
others goes into its fourth week with
a full schedule of games. Allen-
Rumsey House goes after its fourth
win of the season this afternoon as
it battles second place Cy Adams
House.
Fletcher Hall and Wenley House
both seek their first win of the season
in the other contest. Strangely
enough Wenley boasts the high scor-
er in this league, in John Smedley,
whose 17 points makes him a con-
tinuous threat.
Due to unexpected difficulties in
train schedules the Michigan-North-
western wrestling match, which was
originally scheduled for 2:30 this
afternoon, will be shifted to 3:15.
The Wolverines, who are thus far
an unknown quantity, will be pitting
themselves against a foe, which has
proved itself to be a definite threat
for the conference crown.
Wildcats Have One Victory
TheWildcats, who legan their
season last week with a very impres-
sive victory over the Boilermakers
of Purdue, will take to the mats with
a double purpose in mind. They will
want to erase, at least partially, the
16-match lead which the Wolverine
matmen have amassed, and they will
be seeking to dethrone the current
conference champions.
It is well, that Coach Wally Web-
er's men are well primed for this
match, for the Wildcats come to
Ann Arbor with a highly touted
squad. Northwestern is especially
powerful in the lower weight divi-
sions, and some interesting matches
will probably be seen this afternoon.
The Maize and Blue grapplers are
also quite strong in the lower divi-

ed some wrestling experience at Cran-

against the wall tonight as defeat for
either could easily mean virtual eli-
mination from the Conference race.
Two early-season losses are usually
enough to knock any team out of
consideration.
Illinois is expected to put up a
stronger battle than it did a week
ago, having been buoyed up by the
return to top form of two first string-

se -
play 38 minutes under the handicap
and score 11 points. Delaney was
hampered by a recent tonsillectomy
and was not in top physical condi-
tion. He is expected to be fully re-
covered for tonight's fracas.
Oosterbaan indicated that he
would send out the same starting
lineup which halted Illinoistwo
weeks ago. John Mullanecy and Bob
Geahan, leading Conference scorer,
will be at forwards. Don Lund,
whose 13 points led the Wolverine
attack last week, will start at cen-
ter, and Walt Kell and Don Lind-
quist have the inside track at the
guard positions.
Coach Mills' first five has Howard
Judson and Bob Morton at forwards,
Delaney at center, and Jim Seyler
and Kirk at guards. In addition,
Mills has a flock of, capable reserves
including forward Jake Staab, center
Johnny Orr, and guards Jack Bur-
master and Walt Kersulin. All of
these men will probably see action
tonight.
Illinois Uses Fast Break
The Illini utilize a fast-breaking
semi-race-horse style of attack, sim-
ilar to that displayed by Indiana her;
last week. They depend mostly on
long out-court shots for their scor-
ing punch but have sufficient height
to use an aggressive under-the-
basket offensive.
Assistant Coach Bill Barclay warn-
ed that Illinois is not to be taken
lightly, despite the fact that the
Wolverines emerged on top last week,
citing the impressive pre-season rec-
ord of the Illini as proof. Coach
Mills' squad boasts two triumphs over
powerful Great Lakes and also a
victory over a highly-regarded De-
Paul five, indicating that the Orange
and Blue cagers might have been
slightly off-stride at Champaign last
Saturday.
