JANUAI 9, 1948 'U MICHIGAN DAILYPAGE SV Pueksters Face orth kota Tonight Nodaks Seek To Upset Unbeaten Hockey Teamn Injury To Keep Brumm from Seeing Action; Renfrew, McMillan, Gacek Pace Wolverines By HERB RUSKIN Aiming for their fifth game without a defeat, Michigan's hockey team will take the ice to- night in the first of a two game series against the University of North Dakota at 8:30 in the Coli- seum. This will be the first puck meeting between North Dakota and the Wolverines who have won three games and tied one since the beginning 'of the sea- son. The Michigan squad boasts victories over McMaster, the Windsor Spitfires and the Uni- versity of Toronto. The other game with Toronto ended in a 4-4 tie. The Wolverines will be playing without the services of Leonard Brumm, third line forward, who suffered a brain concussion in practice earlier this week. Other- wise, the squad will be in top shape for their first game of the new year. Al Renfrew, Gordie McMillan and Wally Gacek will, as usual, make up the Wolverine sextet's first line, with Bob Marshall, "Ted Greer and Bill Jacobson as the second forward wall. On the - Three Teams 'ie for First In Pin League The race for the lead in the All- Campus Bowling League tightened as of Wednesday night's meeting with three teams now - tied for first place and two more for sec- ond. Splits, Strikers Lose The Splits and Strikers, pre-va- cation leaders, both lost their matches. In the evening's most spirited match the Splits lost to the rejuvenated Turkeys 3 to 1. The Turkeys, for the first time since November, were rolling at full strength and gave a good ac- count of theiselves with Al Wis- tert an& Capt. Ralph Wildermann leading the way. The Strikers were upset by the underrated Dales 3 to 1, and the Spares downed the Gamma Del- tas 4 to 0 to move into the first place tie with the Strikers and Splits. Wild Men Win The Wild Men defeated the En- gineers 3 to 1 and share the sec- ond place spot with the Turkers. The Shackers shut out the lowly Phi Kappa Taus 4 to 0, and the Lawyers defeated the Bowl-Hards 3 to 1.

Heyliger indicated that there would be some shifts between the second and third line, trying various combinations. Michigan's ace duo, Connie Hill and Ross Smith will lead the de- fense, with Dick Starrak and Herb' Upton as able spares. Jack Mc- It has been requested by the players and Coach Vic Heyliger that spectators at the hockey games refrain from smoking except in the outer lobby. The smoke affects the ice and the visibility of the players. "M" Club members have been asked to enforce this request. Com- plete cooperation will be appre- ciated by all concerned. Donald, who is having one of his best years, will be in the Wolver- ine nets. The 1947-48 season marks the return of the North Dakota sex- tet to intercollegiate competion after ? war-time lapse and boasts a new hockey set-up from the top down. Led by their new coach, Don Norman, from St. Johns, the Nodaks have quite a few outstanding high school players from northern Minne- sota and according to Heyliger are a "good team." Their standing line-up will probably consist of Charles Med- ved, Bill Sullivan and Gordon Christian on the forward line, with Joe Silovich and Paul Mc- Kinnon at defense and Art For- mar in goal. Loss of Three Valuable Men Hits Gymnasts Coach Newt Loken had nothing but troubles on the very eve of his gymnastic team's against Cen- tral Michigan this afternoon, as three members of his seven man varsity squad were suddenly wiped off the available list. Exam Keeps Tillman Co-captain Tom Tillman, one of the best all around performers on the squad will be left behind to tangle with a psychology exam when the team departs for Mt. Pleasant at 10 a.m. today. Hack Coplin, another standout Wolverine acrobat, suffered a fractured wrist while practicing on the high bar Wednesday, and will be lost to the team indefinite- ly. Shoendube Ill On top cf all this, Bob Shoen- dube found himself confined to the health service with a case of chickenpox. Loken has done some fast manuering to fill the vacant spots and to give the team the best possible balance in the six events that make up the meet. Each team is allowed three men in each event but the same man can enter any number of events. Fred Butt has been added to the roster for today's meet and will perform on the parallel bars in place of Tillman, who was sched- uled to compete in all six events. By MURRAY GRANT Though the season has hardly begun, Michigan swimmers seem to be working harder than usual. chopping precious seconds off their times-with two views in mind, one, the Conference title and the other, a berth on the United States Olympic squad. Six swimming events and high and low board diving will occupy the slate at the three day meeting, July 9-11 in the spacious River Rouge pool in Detroit. And according to Coach Matt Mann, the chances are excellent for Wolverines making up the largest contin- gent of mermen that will com- pete against the tops in the tankj sport during the week of July 28-August 3 in London, Eng- land. Four freestyle events, the 100- meter, 400-meter and 1500-meter races in addition to the 800-meter relay make up the major portion of the events. Specialists will get their chance in the other events, a 100-meter backstroke and a 200- meter breaststroke. In the freestyles Mann said that five Michigan natators have excellent chances of being selected. He said that Dick Weinberg, ace s pr inter, is ranked along with Wally Ris of Iowa as those to beat in the 100- meter event. He also stated that Charley Moss and Bill Kogen both have good chances of mak- ing the squad. Moss and Kogen are also likely prospects in the 800-meter relay. Six men will be chosen in the Olympic tryouts and from these four will swim 200-meters each in the London meeting. In the 400-meter, Mann said that Gus Stager and Matt Mann III have fine chances of being among the three men selected for this event. He also said that Mann might give young Jimmy McLane of Andover Academy a strong tussle in the 1500-meter event. In the backstroke Captain Harry Holiday stands "head and shoulders above anyone else," Mann said, and though compe- tition can be expected from Alan Stack of Yale, Bob DeGroot of Ohio State and Dick Maine of Iowa. Holiday's chances of mak- ing the team are excellent. Roughest competition of any event is expected in the selection of the three man breaststroke' Wolverine Swiumers Have Sights Set On Conference Crown, Olympic Team contingent. Michigan's Bob Sohl will have to fight off challenges by world's record holder Joe Verdeur of LaSalle College, Don DeForrest,, and Keith Carter of Purdue. Ver- deur's best time for the compara- ble 200-yard event is 2:16.4, while Sohl turned in a 2:19.5 clocking to set the Western Conference rec- ord last year. Gil Evans represents Michi- gan's strongest threat in the platform and three-meter div- ing events, but here too the competition is topnotch. He'll have to fight it out with the big three from Ohio State; Miller Anderson, Bruce Harlan and Hlobie Billingsley in addition to Rutger's Ralph Buratti and Jack Sper of North Carolina. With the return of the Olympic games the amateur athletes throughout the world have one thought in the backs of their minds-that of making the Olym- pic squad. And Michigan swim- mers feel the same way as they go all out for a coveted berth on the 1948 team.
