ILLINOIS SECOND!
Gymnasts Third as Mighty Gophers Win
By JOE WALSH
(Special to The Daily)
Bob Schoendube, ace Michigan
gymnast, became the Big Nine
Trampoline Champion of 1948 by
a spectacular performance on the
bouncing table at Navy Pier, Chi-
cago, before an overflow crowd
last night.
t The team championship was
retained by Minnesota's red-
hot muscle squad, wit hIllinois
second, and the Wolverines far
back in the totals to capture
third place. Wisconsin and Ohio
State followed Michigan in that
order.
Schoendube was the only Mich-
igan gymnast to place in the first
three positions of any event as
the Gophers overwhelmed all op-

places, four seconds, and three
thirds. Their final total, 71 points

Weinberg Second
Dick Weinberg of Michigan
took second only inches behind
the Iowa flash, and Halo Hirose
of Ohio State, the defending
champ was third. Weinberg staved
off a last ditch spurt by Hirose to
edge the Buckeye tankman.
Benson of Minnesota took
fourth place and in a desperate
lunge Bill Zemer of Ohio State
edged Erv Straub of Iowa for the
fifth slot.
Keith Carter of Purdue con-
tinued his role of giant killer as
he mowed down a second Mich-
igan swimmer, Bob Sohl to add
the 200 yard breaststroke to his
already won title in the 50 yard
free style. Carter swam a foot
behind Sohl for three long lengths
and then threw a kick that was
too much for the game Wolverine.
