Every Big Nine school is repre- sented in the entry list which in- cludes top performers from 14 universities and 17 colleges throughout the nation. Illinois Favorite Illinois, fresh from its lopsided victory last week in the Illinois Tech Relays has entered the larg- est squad, 26 men, and will be the logical favorite to cop the crown from the defending Wol- verines in the University divi- sion. Every record on the meet's books rSport Classes To' Be Offered Classes in individual sports em- phasizing skill and competition within the activity, will be offered to all University men during the last eight weeks of the semester, Howard C. Leibee, assistant su- pervisor of physical education at Waterman Gymnasium, has an- nounced. "The days of the old P.E.M. are over," according to Leibee, who indicated that the present pro- gram calls for conditioning through sports, rather than calis- thenics. Beginning and advanced classes in golf, -tennis, badminton, swim- ming, fencing, bait-and fly-cast- ing, and weight-lifting, all of which may be taken in partial ful- fjllment of P.E.M. requirements, will be given beginning April 14. Men interested in joining the classes are requested to enroll in advance at Room 5, Waterman Gymnasium. TYPEWRITERS Bought, Sold, Rented Repaired STUDENT & OFFICE SUPPLIES 0. D. MORRILL 314 S.

Two Illinois thinclads, high jumper Dwight Eddleman and )ole vaulter Bob Richards, both ;onference champs, have excelled neet records in their respective vents in performances this year. Fonville To Seek Revenge Michigan's Chuck Fonville, con- ?erence shot put champ will be Seeking revenge for his upset de- 'eat by Illini Norm Wasser last week at Chicago. Neither athlete, however, is expected to-exceed last year's record breaking toss of 54 feet, 7% inches by Purdue's Bill Bangart. Fonville's best toss to date has been 53 feet 3/ inches. The Wolverines with an entry list totaling 23 indicated by its ierformance last week that it will ;ive the favored Illini a run for its money in the track events and ;ould make the going a little rough or the Big Nine champions. New Invention A touch of novelty will be pro- vided by Dave Rankin, Purdue track coach, who has constructed Something brand new in the way of field event equipment for in- door meets which will make its debut at the annual show. Rankin's innovations consist of specially designed hallow frosted lucite plastic standards which will be lighted internally with red neon tubes for both the high jump and the pole vault. An internally light plastic toe board will decorate the shot put area. The addition of this new -gadget combined with the outstanding field of performcers should cer- tainly provide one of the most "colorful" meets of the indoor season. In the college division, Miami of Ohio, defending champion, will be the heavy favorite, leading the list of entries with 40. In this division Baldin-Wallace's Harrison Dilliard will be shooting at the world's low hurdle mark, which he equaled at Chicago last week. ° Illinois' Herb McKenley will at- tempt to repeat his record break- ing performance Saturday night in the Windy City in his specialty, the quarter mile. Williams House snagged threeI firsts, two second plaes, and a pair of thirds to run away with the top spot in the dormitory track and field events with a total of 23 points, followed by Lloyd House's with 191,2 points and a tie between Greene and Allen- Rumsey for third. In the 60-yard dash Williams ran one-two as Pierre Miller kicked in ahead of John Wither- spoon in 6.6 seconds. Basketballer Boyd McCaslin's efforts in the one mile gave Williams another first, his winning time being CREW-CUTS!! Be y ou flat. r ound or square- headed - we'lldesign one to your facial features!! The Dascola Barbers Between Mich. and State Theatres{ 5:11.3. Duane Chubb's pole vault mark of 9 ft. 9 inches topped the field for Williams' other win. Lloyd House was the only other dorm boasting a double victory. Hal White spiked the 440din the wpinning time of 57.2 and Dave Buncy traveled 880 yards in 2:14. In the low hurdles Clay Holland of Victor Vaughan was clocked in 8.7 as he broke the tape first. By JERRY ALEXANDER Boxing moved squarely into the sports limelight today with the announcement of the pairings for the All Campus Boxing Tourna- ment which is to be held tonight at 8:00 p.m. in the Main Gymna- sium of the Intramural Building. Bleachers are being erected on ,hree sides of the ring for the esti- mated crowd of over 1,000 stu- lents that is expected to attend 'he fights, the first of their kind in the University's history. Koblenz at 135 Squaring off at 135 pounds are Morrie Koblenz and Milt Higgs with the winner meeting Bob Mar- shall, who drew a bye, in the finals March 26. In the 145-pound class there are two bouts, John Pheri- ault against Bob Harrison and Johnny Keeler versus Charles Tower. Two more events feature the 155-pounders; Andy Kerr meets Don Ayars while Bill Muha op- poses Jack Hallberg. At 165 Ed Burns fights Allan Sandman with the winner squaring off with Jerry Wingart, who drew a bye, in the finals. Heavyweights Main Attraction Moving up to the lightheavies, Linus Litsey scraps with Herb Furman while Carl Roth is matched against Mark Abend. The heavyweight division finds Allan Jackson battling Dick Kempthorn followed by the George Athan- Ralph Kohl bout in the evening's windup event. As there were only two entrants in the 127-pound class, that par- ticular bout is being held over until the night of the Intramural Building Open House. The heavy- weights in particular promise some real fireworks as Kemp- thorn, Athans and Kohl are all members of the football team. Winner Qualifies Each winner tonight qualifies for the championship bouts which will be held on the 26th in con- junction with the Open House. As the plans stand now the titlist in each weight division will receive a gold medal emblematic of his championship triumph. Besides the medal however, the champs, plus any of the other fighters that show up well to- night, are almost sure bets to make the boxing team for next year, if and when a squad is allowed by the University. The judges for the tournament are Ed Cochran and Hank Lasch with Chuck Orwick doing the refereeing. The judges have de- cided to follow The Intercollegiate Boxing Point System for the fights tonight. Under this system the winner of each round receives ten points with his opponent get- ting a proportionate amount de- pending on how evenly contested the round has been. Thus, a fight- er may lose two rounds by close totals and still take the decision by decisively winning the other round. The boxers themselves are to go through a physical examination and weighing-in this afternoon after 1:00 p.m. and to make sure they are in perfect shape for their evening's three-round fight. There will be no admission charge for the student body or general public. -~ 't~\Diamonds anI Wedding l Rings 717 North University Ave. 11!11!k *,, KJ~-W . -- I - "- p.

Of the numerous fly chasers that1 reported to Coach Ray Fisher earlier this month, the sage men- tor has narrowed the field down to six or seven candidates who will see most of the action in this spring's Maize and Blue outfield. White, Wiese Back Two Michigan lettermen, Paul White and Bob Wiese, and Bump Elliott, who earned letters playing baseball for the Purdue Boiler- makers before transfering to the Wolverine , camp, are the top three prospects. White and Crisler in California To Give Alumni i Talk Fritz Crisler has returned to the West Coast-but don't wor- ry, it's not to negotiate for a new coaching position. He's in Los Angeles to ad- dress members of the Univer- sity of Michigan Alumni Club Friday night. Wiese, who have played in Coach Fisher's outfield before the war, are port swingers, while Elliott takes his cuts from the right side of the plate. All three were regu- lars on the football team last fall. Freshman Ralph Morrison is slated to see plenty of action in Michigan's outer garden this spring, and he also is a left-hand- ed slugger. Rounding out the list of the top six possibilities are Duane McKeachie and Paul Veith. both of whom are right-handed hitters and were on the team last year.
