THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE SUL FRIDAY, 3'AMAR i4, 1949 m. - -- - ---- _ _ , _. Cagers out To Break L-"4Aksin Streak EXPECT CLOSE TUSSLE: _M' Grapplers Face Purdue 'Saturday Big Nine Home Schedule Starts with Northwestern III Purdue's wrestling team, which won the Western Conference championship last year in the closest meet in history, will enter- tain our Wolverines tomorrow af- ternoon at 2 p.m. After giving Pirdue a head start with three consecutive dual meet wins, the Wolverines have lost only one meet to them since 1926, which was the contest of two years ago. Last year the Keenmen beat the Boilermakers in their encounter during the regular season, only to see Purdue take the champion- ship due to the results of Bob Bet- zig's bout with Marlin of Illinois. Had Betzig been awarded the dis- puted decision, Michigan would now be defending champion, in- stead of Purdue. As it turned out, Purdue was first with 24 points, while Mich- igan, Illinois and Iowa tied for second with 23 points each. Michigan's squad will leave this ;fternoon for Lafayette, where they will provide the first opposi- tion of the season for the Boiler- makers. The same group that faced Illinois here last Saturday will make the trip with Coach Cliff Keen. COLLISION SERVICE GENERAL REPAIRING "Any Make of Car" KNOLL and ERWIN "Hudson Dealers" 907 N. Main St. Phone 2-3275 old 1 With one match under his belt, Wolverine Jack Keller will tangle with the titleholder of both the National Collegiate and Western Conference 115 pound champion-: ships in the person of Captain Ar- nold Plaza. Only a junior, and undefeated in dual meets in the last two years, Plaza was prevent- ed from qualifying for the Olym- pic team last year by a knee in- jury, which may hamper his ef- fectiveness this year. Byron Dean's opponent will be Joe Patacsil while Tom Mil- ler will take on either of the two Purdue sophomores, Charles Farina or Bob Appleby. Another soph by the name of Fredericks, who is a brother of the Ohio State wrestling mentor, will probably be at the 145 pound slot, where he will find able op- position put up by Jim Smith of the Maize and Blue. Another outstanding Boiler- maker is Waldemar Van Cott,_ runnerup in both the Big Nine and N.C.A.A. (clampionships last sea- son, who will engage with Michi- gan's John Powers. Byron Lasky Phil Carlson, and Captain Bob Betzig round out t1he Wolverines' probable startiers.

J u r oo) Reori s2,44 Pruci UP -Tils CHICAGO, an. 13- (/P) - The world champion Cleveland In- dians will be the busiest club-and most persistent National League rival-in the American League's 241-game Spring exhibition sea- son. The "Grapefruit" cornuit pro- gram, including 132 games with National Loop clubs, was an- announced today by American League headquarters. It begins March 12, twelve days after Spring toil starts in the Florida, California and Arizona. training bases. Cleveland's champion Tribe plays more Spring games than any other junior circuit club, 37, and has the most dates with Na- tional League contenders, 24. Six- teen, however, are with the New York Giants; also operating in Arizona. The American League also has 28 intra-league contests and 77 tests against top major league teams. The Philadelphia Ath- letics make the only foreign jun- ket, playing three games at Ha- vana. Chicago's White Sox play one game with a Marine Service club. O Michigan's cagers will try to an- nex their first Big Nine victory of the year when they tangle with Northwestern's winless Wildcats tomorrow night at Yost Field House. Opening their home Conference schedule, the Wolverines will car- ry a pair of losses into the battle against a 0-1 record the visitors bring with them. Although the Maize and Blue outfit is generally given the favor- ite's role on the court for this game, the Purple showed plenty of scoring strength in losing ai thriller to Ohio Et ate, 68-6> WHEN TIT second half start- ed, Northwestern found itself on the short end of a 32-24 count, but rallied to take a 40-39 lead be- fore the Buckeyes finally caught fire. j f'ach Arthur "Dutch" Lon- borg has a squad composed mainly of sophomores, and as Wolverines Faceirish, State, Grads in AALT Track Meet on TOBOGGANS 25% Off FOXO2 SptMing iO4 624 South Main With a full two weeks remain- ing before the Michigan AAU track meet at Yost Field House, the list of entries already shows promise of some outstanding per- formances. Wolverine Coach Don Canham received word yesterday that Notre flame University plans to bring a full squad to Ann Arbor for the meet. The Irish are at- wax's a threat in the NCAA and IC4A track championships, and should give some close competi- tion here two weeks from tonight. Outstanding on the Irish squad are Bill Leonard, miler and half-miler; Jim Smith, hurdler; and Bill Helwig, shot putter. Helwig is a former na- tional interscholastic shot put champion. The 65-yard high and low hurdles events should be anonn- the evening's best races. Besides Notre Dame's Smith, other ton.. flight hurdlers expected to conm- pete are Horace Smith of Michi- gan State, who is defending champion in the highs; and Norm Badar, of Baldwin-Wallace Col- lege, who finished second in the high hurdles last year. Garion Campbell, Michigan Normal College speedster who was 1948's only double winner, with victories in the low hurdles and the 60-yard dash, will be on hand to defend his titles. His time of :7.4 seconds in the low hurdles tied the existing record. NO REST FOR THE WEARY- Cage Veteran Bill Mikulich will join team-mates in three tus- sles during between-semesters recess. t The Wolverinles will rely oil Jim Mitchell and Clay Holland to unseat these champions. Michigan State, one of the nation's tole collegiate track po- wers, will have strength in the distance events. Tom Imen, who roll a i:l4 two mile last spring,, is i'avored in this event. State's power in the distance events is shown by their clean sweep of the three major na- tional cross country crowns last fall. In the open two mile relay, a quartet of graduates have filed their application. Joe Shea, Joe Hayden, Charlie Lowe, and Mac Smith should make a strong bid in this event. Hayden and Shea were members of last year's re~ cord-breaking relay teams, Hay- den running on Michigan's mile team and Shea on the two mile teaul. Lowe, who rani the 880 while at Michigan, completed his eligibil- ity in 1946. In last year's meet, he took third place in the half mile run, behind Tarver Perkins, of the Illinois Athletic Club, and War- ren Druetzler, of Michigan State. Smith did his collegiate run- ning at Penn State, where he bet- tered 4:19 for the mile run. He finished 12th at the National AAU cross country run last fall. At present, he is a graduate student at Michigan. they begin to get used to work- ing with each other, they will become increasingly difficult to whip. Wolverine Coach Ernie McCoy's quintet could be the first to feel the effect of this team play. Up to now, the efforts of the Maize and Blue have been dis- mal. In their two starts to date, the> defending champs have been un- able to find the basket or control the backboards. HOLDING A pair of teems like Minnesota and Purdue to 45 points apiece in consecutive contests is no easy job. But unless such performance is supplemented by some sort of offense it does no good to hold the other team. That's just what happened to Michigan, and it's something thatr will have to be corrected against the Wildcats. In order to get some points on the Michigan side of the score- board, McCoy may break up his championship combination and install a reserve or two. In the first ten minutes of the second half of the Purdue contest, he started three reserves and saw them spark a rally that closed - an 11 point gap to tie the count at 27-27. IF MICHIGAN decides not to change the starting lineup, com- pesed of Captain Bill Roberts at center. forwards Mack Supruno- wicz and Boyd McCaslin, and guards Pete Elliott and Bob Har- rison, it's still certain that Hal Morrill, Bill Mikulich, and Bill Doyle will see a lot of action. Morrill has looked particu- larly good working out at center and forward this week, and he may start at either position. Northwestern's starting line-up is expected to consist of Jake Fendley, Don Blasius, Ray Ragelis, Bob "Cotton" Hughes and Jim Barr. The first three are sophomores who have shown up well enough in competition to gain starting berths, temporarily at least. Ragelis, as a matter of fact, scored 15 points to lead the Wild- cats against Ohio State. The Wildcats have been slowed down by the failure of gridders George Maddock, Tom Worthing- ton and Joe Zuravleff to get back into shape after returning from their Rose Bowl victory. The game starts at 7:30 and all students with I-D cards will be admitted free. Admission without an I-D card will be one dollar. ----- BLUE,.
