Buckeyes, Led by S
Margin over Second
By MURRAY GRANT
COLUMBUS, March 7-A vali-
ant, but outmanned Wolverine
swimming team tried vainly to
stem the combination of too much
and too many tonight as the
Buckeyes of Ohio State rolled up
an impressive half-way score of
49 points to Michigan's second
place total of 29.
Coach Mann's natators manag-
ed to garner firsts in the 150-yard
back stroke and the 300-yard
medley relay, but it is the sheer
weight of numbers that appears
to be spelling defeat.
Michigan Sets Record
Bill Smith churned his way to
a new Western Conference and
NCAA mark in the 220-yard free
style in 2:08.4, while the Wolver-
ine trio of Holiday, Sohl and
Weinberg tucked the Western
Bowling Laurels
Awarded Reisig
Rolling a three game series of
505, Art Reisig defeated Malcolm
Dale, 2-1, for the Intramural All-
campus Bowling title.
With the completion of the in-
dividual tournament the Union
alleys are now clear for the fra-
ternity and dormitory bowling
squads to finish their tourneys.
In fraternity competition Phi
Delta Theta and Theta Delta Chi
have advanced to the semi-finals,
while a bracket behind are Chi
Phi who bowls against the Sig
Eps and Theta Chi who takes on
Beta Theta Pi.
The Phi Delts boast, the highest
scores in matches to date with Ed
Bahlow, Joe Sobeleski, Bob Ch p-
puis, and Frank Jones each capa-
ble of a 500 series at any time. In
the last round Jones totaled 567
and Sobeleski knocked over 530
pins, as the Phi Delts outpinned
Sigma Phi, 2563-2404.

Conference 300-yard madley relay
record under their belts with a
2:51.8 to break the existing record
by almost five seconds.
Wally Stewart came through
with a second place in the newly
inaugurated 1500 meter race.
Stewart finished behind Bill
Heusner of Northwestern in the
fast clocking of 20:00.2, which was
14 seconds better than Stewart.
The Buckeyes kept pace with
the Maize and Blue, however, as
it became evident that quantity
would spell Michigan's downfall.
The Buckeye's Jack Ryan and Cy
Schlanger placed third and fifth
to also garner 4 points.
Ohio Pulls Away
Coach Peppe's crew started to
pull away from the Wolverines in
the very first final of the evening
as Dick Weinberg was barely
touched out by the Buckeye flash
Halo Hirose in the final of the 50-
yard free style.
Harry Holiday gave the Maize
and Blue their' first title as he
easily outclassed a strong field to
take the 150-yard back stroke
crown in 1:33.7. Dick Maine of
Iowa defending titleholder was
second while Bob DeGroot and
Dick Fetterman of Ohio gave the
Bucks five points in this event.
Then Smith added a new rec-
ord to his growing collection in
the 220-yard free style as he. shat-
tered Keo Nakama's former mark
of 2:11.2. Team mate Jack Hill,
who lost his title tonight to Smith
also broke the record as he was
timed in 2:10.8 to take second and
edge Wolverine Gus Stager, who
was clocked in 2:12.9.
Harlan Dethrones Anderson
Bruce Harlan dethroned team
mate Miller Anderson in the low

Gil Evans took a third.
Prashaw Sues
BUFFALO, N.Y., March 7-(P)
-Milton Prashaw, of Detroit, a
former University of Michigan
football tackle, filed a $4,400 suit
today against the Buffalo Bisons
of the All-America Football Con-
ference, charging non-payment of
salary.
The suit, filed in U. S. District
Court at Buffalo, N. Y., alleged
the club management failed to pay
for Prashaw's services as a football
player during the 1946 season, in
accordance with an agreement of
July 17, 194.
The former U. of : M. .ath-
lete contended he received no part
of the promised $4,400 though he
was prepared and able to complete
his part of the contract.

Grid Days Here
Over for Yerges
CHAMPAIGN, Ill., March 7-(1)
-Howard Yerges, No. 1 signal
caller of the University of Michi-
gan football team for the past
two years, will not play with the
Wolverine eleven this fall.
So reported Michigan Athletic
Director Fritz Crisler today as he
attended a session of Western
Conference athletic officials.
Yerges' eligibility had been
questioned in some circles, as the
big quarterback played a few
games with Ohio State before he
was taken into the navy for war-
time service.
Yerges was sent to Michigan
after 'his'entry into service and
won three letters.
He still has another year of col-
lege but some sources contended
that he should not be allowed an-
other season of play because of
his previous connections with
Ohio State. I
His decision not to play inter-
collegiate football this season
came 24 hours before toe Big Nine
athletic officials were to consider
his case. Crisler said Yerges' de-
cision would stand, regardless of
how the coaches rule.
* * *
When informed of this develop-
ment, Yerges had no comments
to make. Elmer Madar and Ralph
Chubb, who were with Yerges at
the Michigan-Michigan Tech hoc-
key game last night, expressed
amazement at the announcement.

For two periods, the Huskies, a
team which had been able to win
only five of 16 games this season,
blanketed the speedy Michigan
forwards, but the boys from the
Upper Peninsula were unable to
cope with Michigan's accurate
second period passing.
Greer Tallies
With 3:45 of the period gone,
Captain Connie Hill did a "Tom
Harmon", on ice. He outmaneu-
vered the Husky defense, went
wide, faked a shot and laic a per-
fect pass on Ted Greer's stick
right on the crease, and Greer
tallied to break the scoreless dead-
lock.
The Wolverines continued to
take the offensive throughout the
period Vand they got their second
goal at 10:17 after Al Renfrew and
Gordy MacMillan combined, Ren-
frew driving one past Waite from
in close after taking a pass from
MacMillan. Less than a minute
later Dick Starrak concluded
Michigan's scoring as he whipped
a high hard shot into the right
hand corner of the net after a
pair of passes by Walt Gacek and
Greer had set up the play.
Ted Olson Scores
McDonald lost his shutout with
only five minutes remaining. Ted
Olson, one of three brothers who
play left wing for Tech, was the
villain as he scored on a pass from
Burt Petaja following a .face-off
on their own end of the rink.
The Michigan goalie made a to-
tal of 28 saves during the game
and many of them were sensa-
tional. He was particularly brill-
iant in the last period, continual-
ly breaking up Tech power plays.
He made five of his toughest saves
in the last few minutes of the
game.
Tech Dominates Last Stanza
except for a few short breath-
ing spells, Michigan's defense was
taken care of by Hill and big Bob
Marshall, who played almost the
entire game.
Michigan missed quite a few
scoring opportunities in the last
period as the Tech team took the
play away and attacked through-
out the session.
Michigan completes its hockey
season at the Coliseum, tonight,'
as the Wolverines and Michigan
Tech meet again.
All golfers interested in try-
ing out for the varsity squad
should attend a meeting Mon-
day, 4 p.m. with Coach Katzen-
meyer in the golf driving room
downstairs in the Sports Build-
ing.
