SAE, Phi Psi, Phi Delt;
Lead Fraternity Cagers

The fraternity cagers wound up
the current season this week with
a full slate of games in both the
'A' and 'B' divisions.
Bill Raymond, high scorer for
both loops, dropped in 22 points
* to lead SAE to a 43-26 victory over
Lamda Chi Alpha. Bill Eggen-
berger, another one of the league's
high scorers, bagged 17 points to
Beta's Take
First Place
In HalfMile
Beta Theta Pi won the frater-
nity relay and Hayden House cop-
ped the dormitory relay in spe-
cial events Saturday night at Yost
Field 'House while Michigan's
traclkmen were downing Ohio
State, 62-52.
The Beta's won the half-mile
relay in 1:43.1, two-fifths of a sec-
ond ahead of Delta Upsilon. The

yards in the relay, were Jim
Atchison, Jim DeBoer, Ernie An-
derson, and Bob Kerry.
The DU's finished a close sec-
ond with Clyde Reeme, Rog .Vogel,
John Brumbaugh; and Warren
Dwyer carrying the baton. Their
time was 1:43.5.
In third place was Phi Delta
Theta. Running 880 yards in
1:44.0 were George Quillen,
Doug Wicks, Bill Peterson, and
Roy Duff. Sigma Phi Epsilon
finished fourth in the race, be-
ing timed in 1:45. flat. Run-
ning for the Sig Ep's were Ross
Annatoyn, Dave Gray, Bill Bur-
kett, and Ross Pfalzgraff.
Hayden House's relay foursome
crossed the finish line in first
place to win the dormitory event.
Their time was 1:43.8.
A Forester independent squad
covered the half mile distance in
1:53.9, noticeably slower than the
winning fraternity and dormitory
times.
An interesting sidelight is that
the 880-yard winning time of
1:43.1 set by four Beta Theta Pi
men, each running at full speed
for 220 yards, was only 9.3 sec-
onds better than the winning
time of 1:52.4 set in the 880 yard
race by durable Don Gehrmann
of Wisconsin in the 1949 Big Ten
outdoor championships.
Four Men Top

This week 105 of the campus'
best bowlers went to the alleys
to decide who will wear the All-
Campus Crown.
The battle raged for five days
and ended Thursday with the fol-
lowing men on top of the heap.
Rolf Westgard finished out in
front with a 6-game total of
1157. Jim Dowsley was second with
1117. Ron Wells was third with
1107 and Ed Perkins came in
fourth with a 1106. Their games
were:

171, 200, 1106
The Final roll-off will be during

the Union Open House March
11th. This will be a round-robbin

of the other men 2 games. Awards
wil be presented the winners.

creasing fraternity incentive for
the cage championship.
Raymo nd Tops
1mM Scoring
Up-to-date but unofficial sta-
tistics show that Bill Raymond,
a Sigma Alpha Epsilon from
Adrian, Michigan, leads all scorers
in the fraternity division of intra-
mural basketball. Raymond has
hit for 19, 11, 19, and 22 points
in four league starts thus far this
season. Here is an unofficial list
of leading scorers in the fraternity
"A" league:
Name Pts. Ave.
Raymond 71 17.75
Fletcher 44 14.67
Katz 42 14.00
Steck 53 13.25
Eggenberger 39 13.00
Stenn 39 13.00
Fisher 38 12.67
Deremo 38 12.67
Erben 48 12.00
Bargert 35 11.67

Independent
Cage Teams
End Season
With dormitory "A" basketball
reaching a conclusion Monday
night, the four first-place playoff
positions have almost been deter-
mined. Chicago House holds one
berth, having won division II with
a 3-0 record.
Strauss House took top honors
in division, IV, despite previous
announcements that W illiam s
House had won. According to In-
tramural rules, if two teams both
have identical won-lost records,
the team scoring the most points
in the entire season is the win-
ner. Strauss outscored Williams;
henoce they are the winners.
Adams' cagers, with 3 straight
wins, has only to defeat Wenley
House Monday night to win the
top spot in division I. Fletcher
Hall, on top in division III, will
face Lloyd House in a game for
the championship of that bracket.
In this week's "A" action,
Tyler House spoiled Lloyd's un-
defeated record with a 28-22
win. Duane Luse led the Tyler-
men with 15 points. Fletcher
hall won .its third straight, roll-
ing over Vaughn, 34-16. Bob
Hurley topped the victors with
12 markers.
Wenley House won its first
game with a 28-20 decision over
Cooley. Michigan House defeated
Greene House, 54-26 in a high-
scoring game which saw a sea-
son's high for individual scoring,
Wayne Nystrom sank 13 baskets
and 4 free throws for a 30-point
total.
All of the four teams who ap-
pear likely to enter the first-place
playoffs have w e 11 - balanced
teams. However there are a few
players who deserve special men-
tion. Adams House has a good
one-two punch in Mark Ardis and
Walt Noon, who have been con-
tributing about 20 points per
game together.
Strauss House boasts Gerry
Davis, with a 10-point per game
average, while Paul Fancher of
Chicago House has hit for a 10.3
average thus far this year. Flet-
cher's team scoring also is well-
divided, with Alex Rotsko leading
the way.
The thirty points last Monday
night by Wayne Nystrom is the
highest scoring feat of the year,
and surprisingly enough, next
best among dormitory basketeers
is 16 points, reached by Carl Cor-
nelison of Cooley House early in
the season.
Due to the low-scoring games
in the dormitory basketball
leagues this year, individual high-
scoring performances have been
limited to a great extet. But the
cage season has been a great suc-
cess for the residence halls this
year.
Swim Meet Scheduled
Next Tuesday eve the intra-
mural fraternity swimming meet
begins with competition in diving.
On Thursday the relays and races
will be run off. Professional fra-
ternities will compete on the fol-
lowing week. The Independents
meet begins March 14.

CAPTAIN - Matt Mann III,
Michigan captain and ace dis-
tance man toes his mark in pre-
paration for the 220-yd. free
style qualifiers. Mann, Confer-
ence champion in the 1500-
meters in 1948, took a second in
that event Thursday night be-
hind the record-breaking Jack
Taylor of Ohio.

BID FOR BOXERS:

All-Campus Boxing Tourney
To Highlight IM Open House

The final matches of the All-
Campus boxing tourney will again
be the highlight of this year's I-M
Open House on March 22.
Marty Martelle, who is super-
vising training for this year's
events, announced that there are
still vacancies in all weight divi-
sions. All interested men should
contact him at the I-M Building.
* *
THIS YEAR all entrants will be
divided into two classifications,
Novice and Open, according to the
amount of ring experience they
have had.
The novice class, which is' a new
feature of this year's matches, will
3liminate the poor fights which
result when an inexperienced
fighter is matched against' a' man
with superior ring know how.
Matches will be scheduled in
eight weight divisions: 115, 125,
135, 145, 155, 165, 175, and un-

limited. As in previous years all
winners and runnersup will be
awarded Intramural Sports me-
dalions.
The most outstanding fighter of
the tourney will have his name
engraved upon the I-M boxing,
trophy.
Marty Martelle is conducting
workouts for all entrants every day
from 4-6 at the I-M building. Any
man interested in entering must
have had five supervised workouts
before he is eligible to compete.
Preliminary matches will start
next week but the final bouts will
not take place until the I-M Open
House on March 22.
All interested men are requested
to report to the I-M building early
next week so that they will have
plenty of time to get in their pre-
liminary workouts before the first
match.

CELEBRATING his 25tj year at
Michigan this season, the veteran
Mann is no stranger to the role
of host and is undeniably at his
happiest (and best) when in the
spotlighted task of running the
show.
Generally recognized as the
finest swimming coach in the
country Mann has spent a good
deal of his coaching career in
the glare of the national spot-
light. In his twenty-five years
at Michigan he has produced
thirteen national championship
teams and 16 Big Ten cham-
pions. His teams have finished
as low as third only twice in
each of the championship
meets.
Prospects of the Wolverines as-
cending the Western Conference
throne again this season are slim
but the Maize and Blue is almost
certain to find itself in the run-
nef-up slot behind Ohio State's
sophomore swimmers and senior
divers.
BOASTING the best swimmers
in the country year in and year
out the one-two finish of Big Ten
teams in the NCAA meet three
weeks hence is another probabili-
ty. Only Yale (in 1942 and 1944)
has been able to crack the Michi-
gan-Ohio monopoly on National
Collegiate championships in the
past 15 years.
This season the Conference
meet boasts such names as
Olympic diving champion Bruce
Harlan of Ohio, Australian
Olympic breastoker John Dav-
ies, now swimming for Michigan,
Jack Taylor of Ohio, Charlie
Moss of Michigan and Duane
Draves of Iowa.
Moss recently set a new Ameri-
can record for the 100-yd. breast-
stroke.
DAVIES HOLDS the unusual
distinction of having finished
fourth to ex-Wolverine Bob Sohl
in the Olympic Games despite the
fact that his official time was
two-tenths of a second faster
than Sohl's.
With the clerical work that
goes with the staging of a Big
Ten meet piling up at an alarm-
ing rate much of the pencil duty
has fallen to the lot of Bill Ko-
gen, the aggressive ex-Michigan
sprint star who has assumed the
role of assistant coach here this
season.
Kogen, whose coaching future
is a bright one, has apparently in-
herited his teacher's flare for
putting himself into the spotlight.
Climaxing a rather dismal dual-
meet with Ohio State last week,
h- unceremoniously dumped an
Ohio swimmer into the Buckeye
pool bathrobe and all as a means
of soothing ruffled feelings.

OFF WE GO-Dick Martin (left) and Dave Neisch, ace Michigan
sprinters take to the water to warmup for the freestyle relay
qualifying heat. The surprising performances of the pair, neither
of whom figured prominently in pre-season plans, have enabled
Michigan to remain among the country's top college swimming
aggregations.
