Not since dropping their opener a month ago to Great Lakes have the Maize and Blue swimmers tasted defeat and the visiting Wayne squad doesn't figure to cut the Wolverines' string tonight. The Tartars won their only start last week from Case, 65-10. Tonight's clash should give Coach Matt Mann's outfit a good workout in preparation for meets with Min- nesota and Ohio State coming up in the next three weeks. Wayne is strong in two departments, the free- style sprints and diving. Bill Prew, former NCAA champ, will represent the Tartars in the 50- and 100-yard freestyle events. He will probably oppose Wolverine Dick Weinberg in the 50 and Wolv- erine Charley Fries in the 100. Weinberg holds one decision over :Prew. Last month he nipped the Wayne ace to win the State AAU 50-yard freestyle event. Michigan's unbeaten divers will get their biggest test of the season against the Tartar's star, Bob Gard- ner. Not once this season have the Wolverines had to yield a first spot in the diving but the competition hasn't been too sharp, either. Tonight the Maize and Blue trio, Alex Canja, Gil Evans and Ralph Trimborn, will face their best op- ponent so far this season in Gard- ner. The Wayne diver has done some good diving for the Detroit Athletic Club and last year . he reached the finals of the National AAU meet. Mann will probably give his entire squad a chance to show off before the home audience tonight. Chuck Barnes and Lou Kivi may ,join Wein- berg and Fries in the sprints. For the 220- and 440-yard freestyle races the Wolverine mentor will make his choices from Matt Mann, III, Dave Tittle, Charley Moss, Neville Adams and Jay Sanford. I I 'R- v R.. ° w a v v ar io ar v To face the Tartars in the 200- yard breast stroke the Maize and Blue will have Bob Sohl, Captain Heini Kessler, Bob Michels and Fred Anderson. Wolverine entries for the 150-yard backstroke will come from Willard Metcalf, Ed. Stone and Anderson. In the 300-yard medley relay the Michigan mentor will probably use his top trio of Metcalf swimming backstroke, Bob Matters in the breast stroke with either Weinberg or Fries for the freestyle leg. For his 400- yard freestyle relay team Mann will have Weinberg, Fries, Tittle, Moss, Barnes, Mann and Kivi to choose from.

W By BERNIE MEISLIN Michigan's cage squad drilled in- tensively yesterday in preparation for the coming basketball activity of Sat- urday and Monday nights with Illi- nois and Wisconsin respectively. The Illini will be seeking revenge Saturday at Champaign for the 48-47 defeat hung on them earlier this sea- son by a fighting Wolverine quintet. Since the last Illinois-Michigan cage contest, Coach Doug Mills' five has been strengthened considerably. The return of Fred Green, 6 ft. 7 in. freshman who was on the great Illi- noi,; yearling squad of 1942-43, is par- ticularly encouraging to Illini hoop fans. Green was a member of the famous Whiz Kids along with such stars as Dike Eddleman, Junior Kirk and the original Bob Menke of Illi- nois basketball history. Marks Returns The second returning veteran whose face is new to Michigan hoopmen this season is Jim Marks, 6 ft. 2 in, for- ward. Marks was a member of the North-South Illinois All-Star squad of 1944. Both coaches seem to have a healthy respect for each other's charges. Bennie Oosterbaan has termed Illinois as "one of the most underrated hoop teams in the coun- try." Coach Mills of the Illini calls the Wolverines "one of the Big Ten's best right now." The return of Green to the Illi- nois lineup has necessitated a few shifts in the starting Champaign five. Bob Menke, freshman, who. started the season at center has been shifted to forward vliilc Green has taken the ('enter slot. Doster Leads Scorers Along with Green, Illinois will place cn the hardwood court the Confer- ence's leading scoirer in Bob Doster, and 5 ft. 8 in. Wallie Mroz who ran up 21 points in his last outing against Michigan. On Monday night the hoopsters make their first appearance at Yost Field House in more than two weeks when they attempt to avenge the 58- 57 defeat handed them by the Badg- ers last Saturday at Madison. Michigan, with a record of four wins as against five losses stands sev- enth in the conference. Illinois is sixth. A Wolverine victory would en- able Michigan to tie the Illini for seventh spot in the Big Ten. Spartan Natators Ciasli WitLh Badgers Tomorrow EAST LANSING, Feb. 7-- (IP) - Tackling their fifth successive Wes- tern Conference opponent Saturday at the University of Wisconsin, Michigan State College's once-beaten swimming team will go after two freshman national collegiate records, Coach Charles McCaffree said to- day as he readied his squad for the trip to Madison. By DES IHOWARTH , With a capacity crowd assured for what should prove to be Ann Arbor's hockey series of the year, Coach Ace Bailey and his fast-skating Toronto Blues will invade the Coliseum ice at 8 p.m. tonight to battle the Michigan sextet in the first of two games. By virtue of two victories over the Michigan puckmen in Toronto two weeks ago, the Blues, unbeaten in college opetition, will rate as favorites, but Coach eyliger and his crew are conceding nothing to the visitors. Toronto won the first contest 9-3, but the Wolverines held a big edge for two periods in the second encounter before being defeated 7-5." "If we play the same brand of hockey against Toronto that we played in those two periods, we should' Tickets go on sale at 6 p.m. to- day at the coliseum for tonight's and tomorrow night's hockey games between Michigan and the University of Toronto. have a good chance to win," Heyliger admitted, "and playing on our own ice will also give us an advantage." To win, the Wolverines must stop the strong Toronto attack which is led by Captain Wally Halder. Halder, who has averaged close to four goals a game for the Blues this season. caused Michigan no little trouble in Toronto, scoring six times against the Wolverines. Michigan's line-up will be re- vamped for tonight's game. Heyliger expects to start ord MacMillan at center. Neil Celley and Al Renfrew If i Td h. A MUSBE! To Repeat Triumphs Battle Is Promised will be on the wings. Renfrew will be playing with his wrist in a cast, and it is not known just how much action the speedster will see, Bob Marshall, almost fully recov- ered from a leg injury, and Ross Smith will be the starting defense- men, with Captain Connie Hill and Clem Cossalter in reserve. Michigan's second line will have Wally Grant at left wing, Wally Gacek at center, and Bill Jacobson on the right flank. If Renfrew sees only limited service, Chet Kuznier will move up from the third line to team with MacMillan and Jacobson. Halder will center Toronto's first combination, with Gord Ball and Bob Henry as his wingmen. A sec- ond trio that of Bauer, Kosick and Jim Bromley. Jack Maclnnes, who turned in a great performance against Toronto despite the Wolverines' losses, and Dick Ball, also a great net-minder, will again be the opposing goalies. 1i . - 'I km TUX and FULL DRESS RENTALS All sizes . . . with or without accessories. 6 days notice required CLOTHES SHOP 122 EAsT LIBERTY D O BBS {, o H A TS OTH E R MANS HAT .:;' ,. .. ,..; .
