-THIE 1 HGA -DHY_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 'M' FOES CLASH! NCAA Playoffs Match Colorado and .Dartmouth Trackmen aud Fonv yle NCAAMeet (EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the third in a series of articles dealing with the forthcoming NCAA Hockey tour- nament in Colorado Springs.) By B. S. BROWN Colorado College will be facing what is generally considered the finest hockey team in the nation in the first game of the NCAA play- offs next Thursday night when it takes on the high-scoring Dart- mouth University squad. Faltering slightly in the latter part of its season when they played four games on the road, the Tigers ended the season with 16 wins and six losses. Beginning the campaign with a rousing 26-3 victory over Om- aha University's puckmen, the Coloradans roared through 16 games, losing a single contest to the University of Saskatchewan, 8-4. They avenged the loss on the following night, 6-3. Four of the triumphs came over Minnesota and Michigan Tech. North Dakota was the next team to hand a defeat to the Bengals, as it rolled over the home club, 8-4, in the first of a two-game series. Again the Black and Gold boun- ced back on the second night and whipped the invaders, 6-3. Then came the ill-fated road jaunt. Travelling to Houghton, the Rocky Mountain lads were rude- ly upset in two games with the Huskies ofmMichigan Tech, 4-0 and 3-2. Moving south after their two reversals, the Tigers took on the Wolverines in another two-game series. Heyliger's lads left no doubt in Coach Cheddy Thompson's mind that Michigan hockey was among the finest in the country as they walloped the Bengals, 3-1 and 6-1, on successive eve- nings. Where Michigan boasts speed and finesse, the Colorado boys em- phasize size. Maize and Blue fans were given an opportunity to see their team dwarfed by the visiting squad, but in size only. Roy Jkola, Bengal net-minder, was outstanding in the crease in both Colorado losses to Michigan, and is an integral part of the team's defensive brand of play. Bill Tutten and Milo Yalich were sturdy on defense, and their 200-pound frames proved to be important in their back-check- ing attempts. Bruce Stewart and Lew Meier complete the defen- sive quartet. Joe Slattery, Dick Rowell and Bruce Stewart make up Thomp- son's first and high-scoring line, and between them have accounted for 110 points during the 1947-48 season. Vern Wishart, Harry Whitworth and Howie Hushion fill the offen- sive-slots on the second line, and Chris Ray and Joe Slattery are the spares. Though unsuccessful in their four away games, the Tigers were Sractically invincible on home ice. Their 16-2 record at the Broad- moor Rink attests to their super- iority at home and makes them an even-bet choice in the first game with Dartmouth. Perfect Form Key to Fame Of 'M' Great By BUD WEIDENTHAL The skyrocket to fame of Char- lie Fonville continues to amaze all who pride themselves in being ex- perts of track and field. When the 20-year-old junior sent the longstanding indoor mark crashing into the pages of history three weeks ago many an eyebrow was raised and many a question was asked. Natural Queries "What has this guy got?" was the natural query. "He's the world's greatest shot-putter, there's no doubt about that," they would say, "but have you ever seen a picture of him? He looks more like a basketball player." A basketball player he could well be, or even an end on a football team, but never a shot put artist. Fonville just doesn't look like a champion weight man and that's what makes his feats even more remarkable. Detroit -Product The product of Detroit Miller High sets his 195 pounds on a slender, but muscular six foot two inch frame, while Jack Torrance, whose world mark still holds at 57 feet 1 inch, was well over 250 pounds and had a tremendous frame to put behind his heaves; and Al Blozis whose world indoor mark has just gone by the boards was a 245 pounder. Their records were understand- able-power alone was the key. But- "What makes this guy Fon- ville great?" Here's the Answer There's no one more capable of answering that question than his coach, Wolverine veteran track mentor Ken Doherty. "Perfection of form" is the an- swer, the Michigan coach will give immediately. There's no doubt about it in his mind. He can tell stories of Charlie as just a "good" high school product, never having won any major crowns, who during his freshman year here developed into one of Michigan's finest shot put pros- pects. Success Formula Doherty claims that hard work and long tedious hours of perfect- ing minute details did the trick. Patience and fortitude has paid off. There's a story they're telling these days of a series of photos that were taken of Fonville show- ing every movement in his flight across the shot put circle. In company with his veteran coach, he closely scrutinized every motion in search of flaws. The pair figured out that if he could keep his left leg down, it would give him more balance, a more continuous motion at top speed across the mark. . -t 'Matnien 'rhe NCAA wrestling champion- ship meet scheduled next weekend at Leheigh University will be by- 1)assed by the Wolverine grapplers, Coach Cliff Keen announced yes- terday. Feeling that academic attend- ance is more vital for the Michi- gan wrestlers, Coach Keen stress- ed the fact, though, that the mat- men are certainly not finished for the 1948 season. The district meet for the Olym- pic Games slated for April 16th and 17th at the Detroit downtown YMCA will garner the Wolver- ine squad's chief interest for the next month. Coach Keen also emphasized that his Michigan squad will in no way endanger their chances for qualifying for the Olympic Games since the winners of the NCAA meet will also have to compete in the qualifying meet at Iowa State College the 23 and 24 of April in Ames, Ia.

Charlie Fonville, described by Track Coach Doherty as "perfection of form." "-i ,. RUST CRAFT EASTER CA*RDS ARE FUN TO SEND AND RECEIVE GET YOURS NOW Working on this discovery, Fon- ville made a conscious effort to correct the defect. The record proves that it has paid off. Many of the qualities that have made Charlie a great athlete are reflected in his character. His likeable, intelligent person- ality make him one of the easiest men on the squad to know. The same kind of hard work and perfection that have aided him in throwing the shot has made him a good student, and he plans to en- ter dental school upon his gradu- ation. All This and Painting, Too In his two and one half years at Michigan, Fonville has acquired an interest in painting which con- sumes much of his spare time. He's modest in every sense of the word. Any discussion of Tor- rance's record in the past tense will bring an immediate retort. Fonville doesn't like to talk about records at all. "You just don't think about records," he'll tell you, "you just throw the thing as far as you can." When a shot putter starts throwing sonsistently in the 55 and 56 foot area, one can't help but wonder when this marvel of the field is going to reach his peak. Fonville himself is completely silent on this matter. He just isn't talking. But Ken Doherty has plenty to say about it. Doherty Raves "That boy is still young and he's improving every day. I can think of no reason for saying that he's reached his peak. I think he's go- ing to keep throwing the shot even farther." No one should know better than Doherty, to whom must go much of the credit of making Fonville a world's record holder. f some4 2ng really lew.

(Some have a BUSTLE) By ROG GOELZ A championship in basketball is new to Michigan cage followers, but to the manl who has raised the Wolverine quintet to the Big Nine title in two years it's an old story. Coach Ozzie Cowles' first court championship was won by the dynamic Michigan mentor's Rochester, Minnes ota High school team and since then all of his teams have been either champions or close runners-up. Cowles went from Carleton Col- lege in Minnesota to Dartmouth, strangely enough, on the recom- mendation of the same man, Fritz Crisler, who brought him to Michigan after Ozzie's teams had won seven championships in eight seasons for the Indians. At Dartmouth, Cowles' teams earned the distinction of being the only one to receive three in- vitations to participate in the NCAA basketball championships. The Indians lost to Wiscon- sin's Eastern title holders by one point (51-50) in 1941. DePaul's mighty 1943 squad stopped Cowles' quintet in the 1942 play-offs and in the follow- ing year Dartmouth advanced to the National finals before bowing to Stanford. The background for Cowles' im- pressive record at Dartmouth was gained at Carlton College in Min- nesota where his teams won three mid-western championships in six years. A three letter man in college sports, Cowles was an all-state halfback in football at Carlton, attracted the attention of ma- jor league scouts in baseball and was' guard captain on the basketball quintet averaging 16 points a game. On Crislgrs recommendation, Cowles came to Michigan from his Eastern successes. The Wolverine football coach and athletic di- rector, first became associated with the results of Cowles' coach- ing ability in his last year as coach at Princeton when the Wol- verine cage mentor was directing the efforts of Carlton in the middle-thirties.

Brief little jacket with faring skirt, boxy jacket with slim skirt, and (now that many modified full skirts have the flare breaking well below the hipline), longer jackets with either a flared or pencil slim skirt are all being shown. So even the ever popular classic jacket has made some compromises. You'll find many of them are shorter. Shoulders are narrower and waistlines accentuated. Gabardine remains the much-desired material, with sharkskin, birdseye, glen plaid and worsted crepe also in high favor.
