Triangular Meet Brings
Purdue Here Saturday

Freshmen will be the dominant fac-
for on the Purdue track team that
Coach Homer Allen will send into the
three way meet between Michigan,
Ohio State and Purdue Saturday
night in the Yost Field House.
The Boilermakers have only four
lettermen back from last season's
team. The veterans are headed by
Dick Kilpatrick; Big Ten high jump
champion. In addition to Kilpatrick
there are Don Weber, Bill Haynes and
Ashley hawk.
Weber was 440 and 880 Indiana
collegiate title holder last year and
has shown up very well in pre-sea-
son time trials. Haynes also runs the
half-mile while Hawks was a mile
and two-mile star on last year's team.
Veteran Hurdler Retprns
The roster of lettermen has re-
cently been increased by the return of
Paul Gutting, hurdler, who won his
letter in the 1942 track campaign. It
is highly probable that the ex-serv-
iceman 'will not be ready to see ac-
tion here this week.
Purdue's strength in the field events
has been bolstered by the arrival at
the Indiana institution of Bill Ban-
gert, National AAU shotput title
holder. Bangert's feats with the shot
so far this season have already
eclipsed the Field House record in the
event.
Newcomers In Sprints
With the exception of Gutting, the
sprint and hurdle prospects are all
newcomers. Carl Lomatch, Norm
Dunn and Nelson Pareira are the
leading contenders in the 60-yard
dash. Pareira is a student from Chile
Who has evoked favorable comments
for his smooth strides and ability. All
three have turned in times of .06:4.
In the half-mile event newcomers
Jack Miller and Bill Kenworthy will
run along with Weber and Baynes.
Don Hlurlburt will double in the half
and mile events, while Miller will
compete in the 440.
For support in the distances Hawk,
one of the four holdover lettermen,
will have in addition to Hurlburt,

State Must Find Man
To Stop Michigan Ace
By CLARK BAKER
If Michigan State's hopeful swim-
mars expect to heat Michigan in their
clash Saturday night at East Lansing
they'll have to figure a way to stop
Wolverine Dick Weinberg, Coach
Matt Mann's freshman ace.
To turn the trick Spartan Coach
Charley McCaffree is going to have
to find a man who can top Wein-
berg's fast times; there aren't many
around. And then the State mentor
will have to locate someone who can
outfight Weinberg; there aren't any
of those "someones."
To quote Mann, "Dick's a fighting
fool." In the Great Lakes meet here
Weinberg fought Wally Ris right
down to the last foot before being
touched out. Last Saturday Mann
kept Weinberg out of his specialty,
the 100-yard sprint, to save him for
the record attempt in the.400-yard
freestyle i-elay.
Swims Anchor In Relay
The Maize and Blue yearling ful-
filled Mann's expectations when he
churned a fast :52.4 in the anchor
leg of the relay to tuck the record
away for the Michigan quartet. In
Detroit two weeks ago Weinberg an-
chored the Wolverines' 200-yard re-
lay quartet, racing to a :22.9 for his
50-yard leg. Needless to say, the pool
record went, too.
But smashing records is nothing
new to the Michigan freshman. Swim-
ming for Arthur Hill High School of
Saginaw last year Weinberg was
rated number one among the nation's
high school 50 and 100-yard free-
stylers. He slashed the Michigan
State high school marks for both
events, hanging up a :23.6 in the 50
and :53.8 in the 100.
Rated High By Coaches
Weinberg also swain anchor on the
Arthur Hill 400-yard freestyle relay
team which broke the national high
school record for the event and was
rated by the high school coaches as
the number one relay quartet in the
country. Two of Weinberg's team-
mates on that relay team, Howie Pat-
terson and Jim Quigley, will swim
for Michigan State Saturday night.
Weinberg's top competition in the
Conference will come from Ohio
State's Halo Hirose and Wolverine
Charley Fries. Looking at compara-
tive times, Hirose appears to be the
class of the field in the Big Ten. But
he'll have to out-fight and out-swim
Weinberg and that's a big order in
anybody's book.

Matmen Prime
For Wisconsin
Meet Saturday
Keen's Squad To Seek
Second Straight Win
Wisconsin will be next on the list
for Michigan's wrestling team, as the
two teams clash this Saturday night
at Madison.
Wolverine mentor Cliff Keen is
putting his boys through hard work-
outs this week in preparation for the
meet. After dropping their opening
contest of the season to Indiana, 18-8,
the Maize and Blue matmen bounced
back to defeaeting Purdue to the
score of 17-11.
Keen can never be sure of his
starting lineup until the matches be-
gin, because all the members of the
team are constantly battling for the
starting berths. At 155 pounds, Earle
Russell is still trying to get the nod,
over Stu Snyder. However, Russell
needs more experience, and until he
gains this, Snyder will start for Mich-
igan.
Bill Courtright, team captain and
undisputed started in the 165 pound
division, has won both his matches
in Big Ten competition to date. One
was by a fall against Indiana, and
the other was a 20 to 7 decision over
Purdue.
The never-ending battle for the
top spot in the 175 pound class is
still continuing in full swing. Those
who are fighting for the starting
berth in the Wisconsin contest, are
George Chiames and Ward Peterson.
Although both have started for the
Wolverines, neither has won a deci-
sion.
Although he hasn't started for the
Wolverines this season, Maurice
Smith will get the nod in the 145
pound bracket for the Wisconsin
meet. Smith will be wrestling in
place of Art Clement, who will be out
because of an arm injury.
In the 121, 128, and 136 pound di-
visions, starting positions seem to be
fairly well set. Unless something un-
foreseen happens, Jim Stark, John
Allred, arid Wayne Smith respec-
tively, will open for the Wolverines in
these divisions. Dan Dworsky, who
wrestled so well for Michigan against
Purdue, will be starting in the heavy-
weight class.

SPORTS
NEWS + VIEWS + COMMENT
By BILL MULLENDORE, Sports Editor
F YOU hear a lusty chorus of your favorite operatic aria echoing through
Yost Field House Saturday during the triangular track meet between
Michigan, Purdue, and Ohio State, don't be too surprised.
The man responsible will be Wilfred (Bill) Bangert, shotputter extraor-
dinary from Purdue, who not only holds the National AAU shot put title but
is a fine prospect for the Metropolitan Opera Company besides.
In fact, Bangert takes his music even more seriously than his track.
The husky 6 ft. 5 in. 230-pounder lists as his greatest thrill not the win-
ning the AAU shotput crown but singing the Star Spangled Banner be-
fore a capacity audience in Madison Square Garden.
That is not to say Bangert doesn't apply himself to putting the shot.
He won the AAU title with a heave of 53 ft. 4 in. last year, while competing
for Missouri. This winter, after transferring to Purdue "to further my music
career," he has already added a couple more triumphs to his rapidly expand-
ing list of laurels.
Two weeks ago, at the Philadelphia Inquirer invitational meet, he
topped the field in the shot by throwing the 16-pound ball 49 ft. 4 in.,
without taking his warmup suit off. Last Saturday, he tossed the lead
52 ft. 4 3 , >!n.in the West Point Relays.
PROBABILITIES are that Bangert will add another first place to his col-
lection Saturday. At this writing, neither Michigan nor Ohio State has
anyone capable of seriously pushing him.
lie should, however, boost the Field House shot put record in the
course of the evening. The present mark of 51 ft. 51111 in., set by former
Wolverine Bill Watson, should not present much of a challenge to the
singing shotputter. Watson, incidentally, will be at the meet as an of-
ficial.
Bangert's case has only one parallel in the annals of sport. Paul Robe-
son, the great Negro singer and actor, was an All-American end at Rutgers
before leaving athletics to follow his career as an artist.
Bangert's appearance highlights what should be one of the more
interesting cinder attractions on the Michigan program this winter.
The Wolverines, making their first start of the season, will be given
strong competition from a pair of well-balanced squads.
Events of special interest-besides the shot put-include the half mile
and high jump. Several of the nation's best will vie for top honors in each
competition. The half mile will see at least six entries capable of covering
the 880 yards in two minutes or less. The high jump field is dominated by
Purdue's Dick Kilpatrick, Big Ten champion, but Kilpatrick may find him-
self hard pressed to beat out Lloyd Crable and George Hoeflinger of Ohio
State, both of whom have cleared 6 ft. 4 in.

One More Win Over Gophers
Means Big Ten Championship
Michigan Sextet Expects Severe Opposition;
Renfrew May Be Back In Action For Series

After Michigan's hockey team
coasted along to an easy victory
Tuesday night, conquering McMaster
University 13-6, the Wolverine sextet
is preparing to meet stiffer competi-
tion this weekend when it encounters
Minnesota at Minneapolis.
Shooting for their first Big Ten
Hockey championship since the 1937-
38 season, when the Wolverines and
Golden Gophers were co-holders of
the title, the Maize and Blue team is
assured at least a tie for the Confer-
ence honor. Coach Vic Heyliger's
charges, earlier this season at the
Coliseum, handed the Northmen two
successive defeats by scores of 9-3
and 7-5.
Minnesota will be out to avenge
these two defeats and playing on
home ice, Coach Larry Armstrong's
club will have the added zest which
will probably 'result in the brand of
hockey which was characteristic of
the past Gopher-Wolverine ice series.
If Michigan can capture these two
tilts, then it will be the first time
since 1931 that a Wolverine sextet
has been able to capture four straight

wins from the Gophers in a single
season.
The Maize and Blue puck mentor,
commenting on the McMaster tilt
,aid, "This game was a breather, but
this week's tough ones will be with
Minnesota." Heyliger also stated that
he was glad to see that Bill Jacobson
snapped out of his scoring slump.
Jacobson was credited with one goal
and three assists in Tuesday's tilt.
Wally Grant and Gord MacMillan,
who are top scorers on the squad,
boosted their total by tallying three
goals each. Captain Connie Hill, who
ordinarily holds down a defense post
switched to a wing position and ably
filled in for Al Renfrew on the num-
ber two wall. Renfrew has been side-
lined by a pulled leg muscle, but Hey-
liger believes he will be in shape for
the two matches this weekend.

As members of the student-body, it is our duty Lo coucern our-
selves with the new plan for student government. Unless each one of
us understands the meaning of the Constitution, its purpose, powers,
and bearing on our own individual lives, it is impossible to initiate a
functional student government.
The University of Michigan should be a democracy within a
democracy, a laboratory in which students learn about their civic
responsibilities. All the processes of the larger society will be employed
right here. Let's begin now by taking an active part in the newly
