WEDNSDA~TM1Li% l1, i1918 TIE MICTHIGAN DAILY p Michigan Mermen To Make id for Natimnal AAU Title Net Prospects Good-Dixon Michigan mnernwen will seek t>o add the National AAU crown to their Western Conference and NCAA titles tlis weekend, as the annual meet gets uderway at the Payne Whitney pools in New Tia v- en, Conn. Although CaCh MatI Mann Is officially declared thatthe season ~as Over and th( ia Al's world be an added trip for the team, the swimmers are regarded as strong threats to again dethrone Ohio State. Rules Differ Amateur Athletic Union rules differ from Collegiate regulations in two majorwa. One is that anytamateur, be he in college, prep school, high school or a graduate, may participate. The other is the ruling that a swimmer may compete in any number of events and a team may enter any number of men in a particular event. These rulings give Ohio State a decided advantage, and also may seriously curtail the Michigan point total, Six Drivers For OS1U Ohio State has entered six divers in each of the two events, and might possibly enter their ace, Bill Smith, in the 220, 440, and 100- yard freestyles as well as the med- ley and freestyle relay. Halo Hirose, the other outstand- ing Buckeye swimmer can also compete in the 100, 220 and the two relays. This gives Mike Peppe and his team a strong advantage. Yale's Bob Kiphuth, taking ad- vantage of the rule allowing non- college men to compete, will enter his team and other stars as the, New Haven Swimming Club. He'll have, in addition to ace back- strokers Allen Stack and Al Rat-' kiewich, such former greats as Alan Ford, world's record holder in the 100-yard free-style. Outstanding Stars Other outstanding stars out of college include Jimmy McLane, outstanding middtle-dstance swimmer from Phillips' Andover1 Academy and Brewster McFadden, freestyle sprinter from the New York AC. One other change in the pro- gram has been made-that of substituting a 300-yard individ- ual medley for the 50-yard free- style sprint. Here Joe Verdeur of LaSalle College, who was voted the "Outstanding Swimmer of 1948," is favored and his strong- est competition is expected from Michigan's Captain Harry Holi- day. "Wolveine tennis prospect: look pretty good this year, maybe evenbetter than last season," said Coach Bob Dixon yestelrday, dis- cussing his team's prospects for the coming season. The net squad, which finished third in last year's competition H showed improved skill in a recent tournament match in lew York whlen lie pushed Sid Schwartz, one of the nation's most promising young amateurs. Al- though Paton dropped the match. he turned in a better perform- ance than he showed last year by crowding Schwartz to the limit. Otto Returns Leading the attack with Paton will be another returning player, Fred Otto, who helped consid- erably to pace the Wolverine of- fense last season. Moved up from last year's fourth place slot to number three: is Captain Bill Mikulich. Just re- turned from a successful basket- ball season, Mikulich has had little opportunity for practice. Holding down the fourth rating is Jack Hersch, number one man for the Wolverines during the 1945-46 season. Located in the fifth and sixth spots will be Dick Lincoln and Gordon Naugle re- spectively, to complete the Wol- verine net battery. Temporary Ratings Substitutes on the trip will be Don McKay and Dick Leerman. These ratings aren't permanent for the season, as they are only Dixon's observations on the indoor performances of his squad. Some changes may occur after the season gets under way and the players hit their playing stride. Southern Trip The Wolverines will leave Ann Arbor Sunday, April 4, and meet the netters of the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Tues- day, April 6. From there the squad goes to Duke for a match Wed- nesday. It then takes on Wake Forest and North Carolina Thurs- day and Friday. This four-game route will end their schedule for Spring vacation. .They will return to Ann Arbor to practice for their first home match. April 24, against the tennis squad of Western Michigan. Thirteen Matches The team will have a thirteen- game schedule this season which finishes on Memorial Day, May 30, when the Big Nine champion- ships will be held at Northwestern University- The netters have been practic- ing over the winter, using the I- M indoor courts and have been restricted so far this Spring by the unstable weather to very in- frequent use of the outdoor clay couis ). Michigan's tennis prospects will appear much more aetinite after the Southern jaunt beginning at the end of the week.

At the age of 75, Dr. George A. May felt that the excitement en- gendered at Michigan Stadium last fall would be too much for him. "I've got to watch out nor my ticker," he would tell friends. Actually, he enjoyed participation in sports more than the mere witnessing of them. Up until the time he retired in 1942 at the lively age of 70, he performed on the parallel bars with exceptional skill. His daily program of physical exercise would generally consist of a short, bris4 workout on gymnastic apparatus and a half-mile jog on either the indoor or cinder track. A graduate of Yale, he came here in 1901 to take over as medi- c., examiner and gym instructor. The same year Fielding H. Yost left Stanford on the West Coast to become Michigan's foot- ball coach. A long- intimate friendship blossomed between the two. "Doc" officiated at every major track meet in the Midwest. His favorite advice to athletes: "Let's make it a fair race. All off together. Make it look pretty." He loved his work at Michigan. Thousands of his Michigan friends were grieved to learn that the wiry, little man had passed away Sun- day.
