(Special to The Daily)
IOWA CITY, Ia.-Old man Dis-
quai-lification combined with a fine
Iowa, swimming team to snap
Miciga'sdual meet victory

stringf ,it W6here last night.
In a meet rife with upsets the
Wolverines entered the final event
of the evenfingz needing a win over
the M" ,wkoyes Big Nine champion-
ship relay team to tie the meet-
and they did it.
,'BlA T IS they thought they
did itL as they coasted in by five
yards to post their finest time
of the year, 3:28.5. But the judges
ruled th~t ,Matt Mann III,
swimming as the third man for
ti Wolverines had jumped too
early anid the Michigan winning
streak wa ended.
Rxeceiving no points for the
event thee Wolverines wound up
on the short end of a 46-34
scoreI'i.
AS EACLY AIS the second race
of t1hw evening it was obvious that
the form chart would be of no
use to the spectators.
That race, the 220-yard free-
style, wits scheduled to go to
Wally leis, Vhe Ilawkeye great
Olympic ace but Mat Mann
III apparently wasn't impressed
as he turned in the finest per-
formance of his career to win in
2 :09.4.
Then Ed Garst of Iowa came
back to furthei- confuse the dope-
ste:rs aind gaini a large measure
of revenge for the Hlawkeyes by
w ipping Mihgns50-yard free
stylt Conference cham~p, Dick
Wefinber. at his specialty.
GA.,RST, WEINBERG and Mich-
igan':; Charlie Moss finished in. a
virtual dead heat in the dash, but
the judges ruled in favor of the
Iowan who was clocked in 23.2
seconds.
It remained, however, for
Weinberg to pull off the top
upset of the evening as he edged
Olympic champion Ris in his
favorite event, the 100-yard free
style. Weinberg who has been
chasing Ris for four years in
races from Hlawaii to Ann Arbor
touched out in 51.9 seconds to
erase the sting of his earlier
loss.
GUS STAGER was the only
other winner for Michigan. as he
coasted to a very easy victory in
the 440 free style finishing in vir-
tually a dead heat with teammate

pair was timted in 5:00.3.1
Michigan's 300-yd. medley rce-
lay team of Bernie Kahn, Bob)
Soldl and Bill Kogen turned ini
their best time of the seaFon.__
2:54. in the opening race diet
it was a half second tcoo slw
to whip the Hlawkeye team, of
Duane Draves, Bowen Stass-
forth and Erv Straub), which
was good enough to take the
Big Nine title last meek.
The Hawkeyes' fine backstroke
duo of Draves and Dick Maine
took first and second as expectedl
in their specialty with Draves
turning in a 1:36 timing and Dave
Brockway of Iowa took anotherI
expected win in the (living eventj
piling up 355.5 points.s
BROCKWAY, who turned in a
brilliant exhibition at Purdue to
take a second in the Conference
high diving, ran into tsome unex-
pected trouble from Michigan's
rapidly improving George Eyster
but he was more than equal to
the occasion. Eyster picked up
341.1 points to take second and
turn in another best.'
Bowen Stassforth whipped Bob
Sohl and Charlie Moss in the
breaststroke turning in all im-
pressive 2:20.2 and then the Wol-
verine's one-two in the 446 set
the stage for the ill-fated final
relay.

"We stopped Kotys" were the
first words spoken by Newt Loken,
Wolverine gymnast mentor, after
the contest. The importance of
such a feat is demonstrated by the
fact that Joe Kotys, one-man team
from Kent, garnered thirty of the
46 Y' points accrued by his squad.
MUCH OF THlE CREDIT for
beating the onini-potent Kotys
