Loken Squad
In Conference
Tests Today
Michigan's high-flying gymnas-
tic squad, well rested after a
smashing. twin victory over Chi-
cago and Wisconsin on february
28th, brings its 6-2 record to the
Windy City today for the Big Nine
Conference Championships.
Nine teams will compete in the
show-down to be held at Navy Pier
this evening. Six of the clubs will
be gunning for Conference laurels,
while three independents will vie
for crowns in the open division.
Rated as a cellar-entry in pre-
season dope, Newt Loken's Wol-
verine charges dumped two of the
hottest clubs in the mid-west, Chi-
For the first time in history,
a Conference gymnastics meet
will be televised when today's
classic in Chicago will be sent
over the air waves. Only those
in metropolitan Chicago will be
fortunate enough to view the
proceedings,
cago and Wisconsin. and came
within a bicep of thumping power-
laden Illinois.
Since that near-disaster for the
Illini, the Wolverines have caused
Conference mentors plenty of
sleepless nights with their spec-
tacular rise to a place of authority
in the gym world.
The Michigan seige will again
be led by Co-captains Glenn Neff
and Tommy Tillman. Rounding
out the roster will be Bob Wil-
loughby, Bob Schoendube, Dick
Fashbaugh, Johnny Allred, Fred
Butt, and Dave Lake.
Minnesota, defending champi-
ons, are favored to repeat this
year. Illinois, strengthened by the
return of former luminaries from
the 1942 NCAA Championship out-
fit, could possibly steal the crown
from the Gophers.
Michigan enters the meet as a
dark-horse. If the Wolverines can
cop a 1-2 on the trampoline, they
stand a good chance of bringing
the Conference crown back to Ann
Arbor.

Michigan, llini CoFavord
To Cod Major RelayCrown

.. 1.

Paced by Illinois and Michigan
thinclads, 13 Midwestern schools
will battle it out for the univer-
sity division crown in the annual
Illinois Tech Relays today at Chi-
cago.
The Illini and the Wolverines
rule as favorites over a field which
includes most of the Western Con-
ference schools plus such other
track powers as Drake, Missouri,
Notre Dame, and Kansas State.
The only noticeable absentee will
be the Big Nine champion, Ohio
State.
Wolverines Troublesome
Illinois, runners-up to the Buck-
eyes in last week's Big Nine meet,
is regarded as the team to beat,
but the Maize and Blue, with cin-
der-twins Herb Barten and Char-
lie Fonville showing the way, are
expected to uuse the Illini con-
siderable trouble.
Fonville has already been con-
ceded his usual first place in the
shot-put, and the only question
seems to be whet her or not the big
boy will break his own world s rec-
ord tonight.
Barten, top middle distance man
in the Midwest, will anchor three
Michigan relay teams, and should
these one-mile, two-mile, and
sprint medley baton passing
squads grab off the blue ribbons,
the Wolverines will be tough to
handle in the point-getting de-
p~artmnent.
Barten, Gehrinann Duel
An interesting sidelight in the
relay events will be the renewal of

the duel between the Wolverine
captain and Wisconsin's distance
man, Don Gehrmann. The Badger
ace, until last week regarded as
the top miler in the Big Nine, will
be seeking to regain a bit of the
prestige he lost when Barten de-
feated him at Champaign.
Other Wolverines who are ex-
pected to pick up points include
Val Johnson, author of a sensa-
tional 48.9 quarter mile at Cham-
paign last week; Ed Ulvestad in
the pole-vault; and Bob Harris
and Tom Dolan in the high jump.
Individual stars slated to appear
in the Stadium over the week-end.
will be headed by Harrison Dil-
lard of Baldwin-Wallace, who
holds American and world records
in the hurdles; Dwight Eddleman,
Big Nine high jump king from Il-
linois; Lorenzo Wright, Wayne's
broad jump specialist; and Bill
Porter, outstanding Northwest-
ern hurdler.

RECORD-BREAKER - Harry
Holiday, Wolverine swimming
captain, set .a new, long-course
record of 1:37.9 as he success-
fully defended his Big Nine
championship in the 150-yard
backstroke last night.

By MURRAY GRANT 1
(special to The Droll )
IOWA CITY, Ia., March 12-
The dazzling 300-yard medley trio
of Harry Holiday, Bob Sohl and
Bill Kogen shot Michigan hopes
for a Big Nine crown skyward to-
night as they added a precious ten
points for first place to give the
Wolverines a 37-21 edge over Ohio
State at the halfway point of the
Western Conference champion-
Ships.
Individual winners for Michigan
were:
Holiday in the 150-yard back-
stroke and the medley team, but
team strength showed as the "Men
of Mann" racked up points. Iowa
was in third place with 20 points
while Purdue was fourth with 12.
Northwestern with six and Minne-
sota with four rounded out the
point-getters.
With the 100-yard, free style,
200-yard breast stroke, 440-yard
free style, high board diving and
the 400-yard freestyle relay
coming up tomorrow the
chances seem excellent for
Michigan to capture the crown
it lost to the Buckeyes in 1946.
Keith Carter of Purdue amazed
the screaming crowd as the meet
got, under way as he copped the
finals of the 50-yard freestyle.
Carter led all the way with Dick
Weinberg of Michigan close at his
heels.
Earlier in the clay the lanky
Boilermaker had established a new\
Western Conference long cour .s
record with a :23.3 clocking in the
semi-finals of the preliminari ,;
Carter's time for the sprint wa:s
:23.4, while Weinberg was clocke(
in :23.5.
halo hlirose of Ohio State was
third with Kenny Marsh of
Iowa fourth and Michigan's
Dave Tittle fifth. Wolverine's
illy Crispin and Bill Kogen were
e lyinat earlier in the day.
1Iar y, olidiay withstood (heil

last desperate lunge by Bob de-
Groot of Ohio State to success-
fully defend his Big Nine 150-yard
backstroke title. Holiday smashed I
the old Conference record of 1:41.6
in his preliminary heat with a
1:39.2 clocking and then came
back to further lower the mark
with a 1:37.9 in the finals.
Duane Draves of Iowa was third
and Ralph Knight of Ohio State
and Harry Griesbach of Iowa took
fourth and fifth.
Perhaps the best race of any
one meet was staged in the
finals of the 220-yard freestyle
as Bill Smith of Ohio State,
Wally Ris of Iowa, Michigan's
Matt Mann IIi and Gus Stager
and Bill Heusner of Northwest-
ern matched strokes.
But it was Wally Ris, coming
from behind in a Frank Merriwell
finish to defeat the flying Ha-
waiian. Ris swam a masterly
stroked race to edge Smith in his
own specialty.
Only a fraction of an inch off
"touch-out" twins. Mann and
Stager, who took fifth. Heusner
crept in between the two Wol-
verines for a fourth place. Ris'
time for the 220 also est ablished
a. new Conference mark as he
shattered the old standard of
:16.6 with a fast 2:15.3 clockin .
With Michigan leading, Ohio

The ex-GI's, George Chiames
and Al Wahl, two top-ranking
gridiron candidates, returned to
the Wolverines campus this se-
mester with distinguished ath-
letic records picked up during
their 18-month Army stretch.
As freshmen, they both played
for Coach Fritz Crisler's 1945 pig-
skin squad. Chiames, a quick-
thinking quarterback, also served
as the team's place-kicker after
Joe Ponsetto was injured in mid-
season. That year, the 200-pound
Wahl saw limited duty at the tac-
kle post due to a leg injury.
The two ballplayers formed a
Damon and Pythias relationship
here, even enlisting together in the
Army on Sept. 3, 1946.
They were shipped to Camp Lee,
Va., where they immediately
gained first-string assignments on
the post's football team that
copped the Middle Atlantic Serv-
ice crown.
Chiames and Wahl were later
sent to different posts in Ger-
many. Nothing was able to stop
them from keeping in top physi-
cal shape.
Employed Crisler Tricks
Employing Crisler's single-wing
system, the 185-pound Chiames
served as player-coach of the Vi-
enna Area Command eleven that
took runner-up honors in a seven-
team league race in Europe.
Meanwhile, Wahl spent most of
his leisure time acquainting him-
self with the rudiments of box-
ing. His efforts were rewarded as
he went on to cop the Golden
Gloves Heavyweight title of the
European Command.

(EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the sec-

Ihe forthcoming NCAA hockey tour-
niaimient in ('olorado Springs.)
By B.S. BROWN
Michigan's greatest hockey ag-
gregation in history has Boston
College as its first opponent in the
NCAA tournament next week at
the Colorado Springs' Broadmoor
Ice Rink.
Taking the New England League
championship last week by virtue
of their 6-4 win over an under-
manned Northeastern sextet, the
Eagles received the title bid and'
will make the western trip in an
attempt to grab national fame.
Veteran Squad
Head Coach John J. Kelley, who
graduated from the Chestnut Hill
school in 1938, will have all but
three of his last year's winning
squad on hand for the battle
with the Wolverines.
Warren Lewis, sophomore cen-
ter, heads the list of able lines-
men. In 19 games last year he
picked up 19 goals and 20 assists
for a 39 point total.
Bernard Burke, Newton, Mass.,
will be in the nets for the Eagles
and will have an able spare, Nor-
man Daly, ready to replace him in
case of injury. Kelley will have
four defensemen available for
duty, foremost among them 200-
pound Ed Songin, who placed on
the All-New England team last
year as a freshman.
Songin scored 12 goals and a
like number of assists last season
as he alternated on the forward
wall. John Gallagher, Vern Hard-
ing and Joe McCusker all saw
action with last year's team and
are seasoned defensemen.
Mason High Scorer
Co-captains Bob Mason and
John Gallagher team with Jack
McIntyre on the starting line and
provides B.C. with the greater part
of its scoring power. Mason led
the scoring for Terrier six in the
past season-in one game he
netted six goals and one assist.
John Corcoran, Walter Delorey,
and Giles Threadgold-all experi-
enced players-make up the sec-
ond forward unit, and John Mah-
ler, a newcomer to the team, is
the single offensive spare.
Tbree Ring Wins
It] 1-1 iPrelitsI

Kelley, who in the ii seasons
preceding the recently - flldled
eiinpaign had piloted his HubI
City teams to 97 wins against 431
losses, led his latest sextet throughI
the most successful year in B.C.
history. In 19 games the Eagles
came out on the winning side of
the ledger 17 times.
Dartmouth inflicted the first
defeat on the Maroon and Gold
after the Indians had been upset
by the Boston lads, 4-3. Boston
University took care of the other
Eagle loss.
