By SY SONKIN
In the wildest hockey game seen
here this season, Michigan took an
easy 7-4 victory over Michigan
tTech last night at the Coliseum.
Jack McDonald, Wolverine net-
minder, played one of the finest
games of his career as he kicked
out 35 Tech shots.
u Three men entered the penalty
box before four and a half min-
utes had gone by; Abbie Maki,
'Tech defenseman, , for hooking,
Connie Hill, Wolverine Defense-
,man, for cross checking, and Al
Renfrew, Maize and Blue wing,
for body checking.
4Maki Draws First Blood
With Renfrew off, Maki re-
turned to the ice and tallied an
-unassisted goal at 4:45, but the
lead was short-lived as Bill Jacob-
,son took a pass from Gordie Mc-
Millan at 6:32 ard slammed a ten-
footer past Engineer goalie, Jack
-Noblet.
Michigan took the lead at 18:27
as Connie Hill took the puck be-
hind his own blue line, carried it
over the Tech line, and passed to
Grant, who shot a high one into
the corner from 20 feet out.
The second stanza statistics were
marked only by an unassisted
tally from the stick of Al Renfrew
, 9:34, and a couple of penalties
to Marc Olson, Tech wing, and
Ross Smith, Wolverine defense-
man. Renfrew's score came eight
seconds after Olson left the ice; Al
took the puck from a face-off at
center ice, circled the Engineer de-
fenseman, and netted a 15-footer.

qualifying time of 1:56.6.
In the 440 trials, the best per-
formance was a :49.3 by Orval
Johnson of Michigan.
Bob Fancett, Wolverine broad
jumper, missed qualifying for his
specialty by an eighth of an inch
as he was nosed out by Kailas of
Wisconsin.
Tomorrow afternoon the finals
in all events will be run off and
from all indications it will be a
three team race right down to the
wire with Ohio State and Michi-
gan battling to wrest the crown
perched precariously on the head
of Illinois.
" Qualifiers:
880-yard Run: (Nine qualified
for Saturday's finals): Barten,
Thomason, Vetter, Michigan; Da-
vis, Washington; Clifford, Ohio
State; Klink, Purdue; Gehrmann,
Wiscorsin; Prifogle, Indiana.
(Best time, 1:56.6 by Barten,
Michigan.)

in the final period by scoring four
times in 13 minutes while holding
the Techmen to a single tally.
It began when Ted Greer, Maize
and Blue wing, carried the puck
from behind his blue line into en-
emy territory, where he shot it
over to Gacek, who took the rub-
ber in full stride in the center of
the ice and sent it whistling past
Noblet for the fourth Michigan
score.
Then came the prettiest play of
the evening. With Ross Smith in
the box for board checking, the
Wolverines stole the puck during a
Tech rush, and McMillan and
Renfrew came in on a lone Engi-
neer defenseman, who was outma-
neuvered by Gordie McMillan,
then passed the rubber to Renfrew,
on the other side of the net, and
Al easily beat Noblet.
Michigan Scores Again
Michigan scored again at 11:40
on a pass from McMillan to Gacek,
who tallied his second goal of the
night.
Tech broke its long scoring fam-
ine less than a minute later. Bill
Robertson, Engineer wing, sent the
rubber from a pile-up near the
Wolverine net to center Paul Kar-
iniemi, who whipped the puck by
McDonald.
Grant Ends Souring
Grant concluded the Mize and
Blue scoring at 13:23 on a peculiar
play. Gacek's shot was blocked and
fell dead at the Husky goal post,
and Wally came in to spp the disk
before Noblet could clear it.
The Techmen refused to give in
and scored a pair of goals at 17:43
and 19:26. Karinieini pushed in
John Cortopassi's rebound for the
first, and John netted a pass from
Jimmy Ruhl to end the night's ac-
tivities.
Michigan will close its season
tonight when it faces Tech at 8:30
at the Coliseum.

Michigan's unofficial fencing
squad, the Scimitar Club, will en-

Ed Micleef, Pete Wong, and

This will be the first competition

has participated since the out-
break of the war, when the club
became inactivated.
When the organization was
recently revived, it represented
the initial step in returning to
the campus the fencing spirit

Members of the Scimitar Club
are now offering instruction in

LANSING, March 5-Taking
all but two events and sweeping to
four new pool records, a mighty
Michigan swimming team
trounced the once-beaten Spar-
tans of Michigan State, 53-31,
here tonight before a capacity
crowd.
Matt Mann IlI let it be known
that he was among the tops in
the middledistance freestyles by
taking the measure of NCAA
champ George Hoogerhyde in the
440-yard freestyle. Mann caught
the Spartan ace with 100 yards
to go and Gus Stager soon passed
Hoogerhyde as the Wolverines
swept in barely inches apart.
State Takes Two Firsts
Michigan State was able to take
firsts in only the 220-yard free-
style, which Hoogerhyde won in
2:09.9 and the 50-yard freestyle,
which was taken by Don Payton
in :23.3. Hoogerhyde churned to
a new meet mark as he touched
out Stager and Mann of Mich-
igan.
Payton also barely won as he
turned in his best time of the
year to defeat Dick Weinberg,
Michigan's ace, and Jim Duke of
Coach Charley McCaffree's squad.
