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 --- -- x 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- Ln rsL ae iipt:icsl who has come along very rapidly since the beginning of the season, against Bill Jefferson, one of coach Roy Greening's pin artists. Another strong man on the Wildcat squad is Larry Whittier, who will face John- ston in the 128 pound match. Skillman, Naval trainee, who gain- ed some wrestling experience at Cran- brook Academy, will find as his op- h, DICK MIXER Puckstes Face Strong Gopher Sextet Toight Minnesota Has Power And Experienced Six The Wolverine hockey team arrives 1 in Minneapolis this morning for its first college tilt in three years. This trip will be the only one of the season for the Maize and Blue pucksters and should give coach Vic Heyliger a great deal of valuable in- formation to use when the Gophers return later in the season for a re- turn match. 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- I- 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. -z' GREAT AS SONG AND LOVE AND LAUGHTER CAN BE!
