FRIDAY, DUCETWRER 17, 1-qIR T HE X1ICHIG AN DAI PA r TI rui Iowa Fire Challenges Wolverine Title Hopes Thinclad s CAot ete in Yuletide Trials - I"> By PRE S HOLME S Michigan's hopes of retaining the Conference. basketball crown this season are being seriously challenged by a 'hot Iowa squad eager to take the title the Wol= verines snatched from their grasp in the final game of last season's play. Although the Hawkeyes have lost the services of last year's Conference scoring leader, Mur- ray Wier, this season's squad has already exploded for four over- whelming victories over Omaha U., Colorado College, Creighton, and Ithaca. * * * AL WEISS and Glenn Dille, up from the Hawkeye's freshmen squad, have been the outstanding performers so far this season. Weiss, 6'4" center, leads the squad in scoring with 38 points and a neat -shot percentage of .428. Dille, the tallest man on the squal at 6' 61", operates at either center or forward, but has been used mostly in the latter position sice Weiss has made such a favorable showing. At the other forward slot is vet- eran Don Hays, who worked at center last year, but was moved to the up front slot this season. THE TWO GUARDS who have been outstanding in these early contests are Tom Parker and Bob Schulz. Although none of the players on the squad has a high point total, Weiss' average is 9.7 per game, the team is well balanced and every man is a potential threat. This is what the Hawkeyes lacked last season when their en- tire offense was built around Wier. Coach "Pops" Harrison sound- ed a warning to this effect at the beginning of the season when he said, "The players are about the most evenly matched I have had at Iowa. It's hard to pick a start- ing lineup. I plan to use several combinations to get an idea of the reaction of the players under fire. " V Santa's Got Some Timely Gifts for Us I There in his Pack!

Preview of '49 Season Staged at Indoor Trials By HUGTH QUINN Michigan track fans got a pre- view last night of what they can expect to see at this season's in- door meets. At the annual Christmas time trials held at Yost Field House, Coach Don Canham put his squad through a pseudo-regulation track meet, with times and distances recorded for every man compet- ing. * * * IN THE FIRST event of the evening, the 60-yard dash, soph- omore Art Henrie nipped Pierre Miller at the finish tape, with Var Bayderian third. In the special freshman 660- yard race, lanky Aaron Gordon Keen .directs Prep Mat men High school wrestlers from all over the state will come to Ann Arbor Saturday for the second consecutive year to participate in a wrestling clinic under the di- rection of Michigan's mat men- tor, Cliff Keen. Keen will be assisted by Fend- ley Collins, wrestling coach at Michigan State, and Bob Leiman, who guides the grapplers at Bowling Green, Ohio. There will be two sessions, Keen announced, one in the morning from 10-12 and an- other for three hours starting at 1 p.m. All high schools in the state are invited to participate. Rules interpretation, demon- strations of holds and their tech- nical aspects will be the subjects of the early class, while the sec- ond period will deal with more holds and movies of the Olympic team and NCAA champions. Keen stated that seven schools came here last year. They in- cluded Ann Arbor High, Lansing Sexton, Lansing Eastern, Battle Creek, Jackson, Cranbrook Prep from Bloomfield Hills, Mich., and Sturgis High. The same schools are expected to show up this year, with the possibility that the two Flint high schools, Northern and Central, may also come. crossed the finish line in first place, and the varsity mile run was taken by Doug Parks, with Sheldon Capp second. The 440-yard dash offered a pleasant surprise for the evening. Ron Sable, who won his fresh- man numerals in 1946, and has just recently returned from serv- ice, took a quick lead at the start, and finished first a scant step in front of Henrie. Soble's time showed that he should round into a good quarter-miler before the season is gone. Bob Sei-geson, back from last year's squad, finished third, DON McEWEN, freshman dis- tance ace, led the pack in the frosh three-quarter-mile run. Mc- Ewen was followed by lanky Bill Hickman, in second place. Jim Mitchell turned in the only double win of the evening. The Milwaukee sophomore, who last year tied the freshman 65- yard high hurdle record, took first in both hurdle events last night. Pete Dendrinos, last year over- shadowed by Charlie Fonville, came into his own in the shot put B. S. BROWN, Night Editor last night. The big weightman threw the 1G pound ball 48 ft., 5 in.

In the concluding event of the program, the mile relay, two var- sity quartets ran close all the way, and finished in the closest race of the evening, with the team composed of Sergeson, Shelton. Murphy, John Witherspoon, and Henrie, winning in the fair time of 3:31.1. (Continued from Page 1) Gacek ended the scoring for ,he Wolverines in the first period with a beautiful goal at 15:39.
