SATURDAY, JANTJARY 12, 1916 THE .-MICHIGAN DAILY Cagers Wip Chic g; Alk wimillers Wolverines Run Up 23-0 Count in Early Minutes l Elliott, Feinberg Lead Team with 13 Points By The Associated Press CHICAGO, Jan. 11--The Univer- sity of Michigan racked up its second Western Conference basketball vic- tory tonight as the Wolverines over- powered the University of Chicago, back in competition after a year's layoff, 81 to 23. There was no doubt about the lop- sided outcome after thie first two minutes of play. Michigan, its first team in the game only 11 minutes, swept into a 23-0 lead in the first nine minutes. Then, as first-string- ers were withdrawn, the Maroons be- gan to score. 53rd Straight Loss It was Chicago's 53rd straight Con- ference loss. The Maroons trailed at the half, 39 to 12. .Guard Pete Elliott and center Mel- ton Feinberg, both of whom went into the game late in the first half, lead the Wolverines' scoring with 13 points each. Set New Michigan Mark By scoring 81 points against the University of Chicago, *Michigan's basketball team wrote its second rec- ord of the season into the books, eras- ing the old mark of 74 points. Oddly enough, the former record was also " established at the expense of the hapless Maroons, in 1943. The other new mark of the current season was set during a lgsing per- formance. The Wolverine cagers chalked up 58 points while falling be- fore Indiana, 67-58, in overtime, the highest number ever tallied by a los- ing Michigan squad. buy Victory Bonds! Trakmieu May To Miss New York Milirose eet Triangle Run Slated Same Day for Varsity For the first time in some years Michigan may not be represented at the Millrose games in Madison Square Garden due to the Ohio State-Pur- due-Michigan triangular track meet scheduled for the same day. Wolverine Track Coach Ken Do- herty said yesterday, "I sincerely re- gret that the conflict in schedules forces us to forego the pleasure of accepting the invitation. The team looks forward to the eastern trip as one of the highlights of the season." Other Invitations Sought However, the Michigan mentor made it clear that invitations were being sought for other meets to be held in the New York area, should members of the team be able to com- pete in the Millrose games. The reason for the decision is based on the custom of not dividing any Michigan team between any two, events. There still is a possibilityj that Michigan may send four to six individuals, provided the track team will not be weakened to the extent of making a poor showing in the meet to be held here. Do Well in New York Five out of the last six years the Michigan two-mile relay team has taken first place in the annual invi- tational meet. In the past years such Wolverine track stars as the Hume twins, Ross and Bob, Bob Ufer, Dave Matthews, Elmer Swanson and George Barnard have made the trip. Still under consideration is the sending of a relay team, provided enough men will be left to run in the distance events against the Buck- eyes and Boilermakers. The make-up of the team was to have been chosen from Chuck Birdsall, Chuck Low, Archie Parsons, Bob Thomason, Dave Barten, Joe Shea, Dave Hess and Chuck McFadden. High Tide WINNING STRIDE - Coach of the Wolverine swimmers who last night whipped Northwestern for their initial triumph is Matt Mann. Ma nn Sets Pace In 4 7-34 Win Wildcat Breas stroker, Craig, Breaks Mark EVANSTON, Ill., Jan. 11- (IP) - I Michigan's swimming team won six of nine events tonight to defeat Northwestern, 74 to 34, in the first meeting of the, season by either school against Big Ten competition.

Matt Mann IIIL son of Matt Mann II, Michigan swimming coach, led the winning team as he won the 220- yard free-style and swam the first leg for the winning 400-yard relay team. Spartans Play Host to Strong Kentucky Five EAST LANSING, Jan, 11 -(P) - Michigan State College and Univer- sity of Kentucky basketball teams were rated about even today as they finished final preparations for their "rubber" game clash here Saturday. Coach Ben Van Alstyne's Spartans are riding a three-game victory string, the latest triumph of which was the 49-36 beating of Michigan Monday, while the Kentuckians boast a record of nine wins in 10 games and a scoring average of 63.9 per game. Coach Adolph Rupp's Wildcats will be out to break a jinx which has per- sisted in the M.S.C.-Kentucky series since 1935. Neither team has been able to win on the other's floor. In an effort to nullify the jinx, Rupp brought his squad to East Lan- sing Friday, a day before the game, to give them a chance to work out on the Spartans' floor. Stand-out Wild- cats are a pair of freshmen, center Wallace Jones and guard Ralph Beard. State's "iron man five" which played nearly 40 minutes of the Michigan game Monday will answer the whistle, Van Astyne said.
