The tourney, to be held at Colo- rado Springs March 16, 17 and 18, is composed of four teams, two from the West and two from the East and New England; chosen on the basis of their 1949-50 season records. OF THE teams in the Western division, Michigan's 15-won and- three-lost record is at the head of the list. North Dakota, Colorado and Michigan Tech are still in contention for one of the play-off berths. North Dakota holds 14 wins as against four losses and two ties while Colorado has won 14, lost 5 and tied one. Both have lost two to Michigan. Michigan Tech, handicapped by a shortened schedule due to a road trip accident which kill- ed one team member and in- jured several others, has lost five games this season but still cannot be counted out of the race. The Huskies will be in Ann Arbor this week-end for its sec- ong two-game series with the Wolverines. The Colorado series, rated to be one of the Wolverines' stiffest tests by an American opponent, turned into a rout after the hard-fought first game Friday night. IN SATURDAY night's' 11-1, runaway practically everybody in the Michigan line-up broke into the scoring column except Hey- laiger himself. Late Scores .. . Len Brumm and Neil Celley led the scoring parade, both reg- istering hat tricks. It was the third three-goal of the season performance for Celley and the first in his Michigan career for Brumm. Gil Burford's eight point effort for the two games (two goals and six assists) brought his season total to 49 points. With seven games to play, Burford needs 13 more points to break Gordie McMillan's one season record of 61, set last year. WITH yesterday's announce- ment of the addition of the Uni- versity of Western Ontario to the Wolverines' schedule, Burford will get an extra game in which to es- tablish a new record. The game will be played in Ann Arbor March 11, shifting the originally sched- uled game with Michigan State to March 9., Celley racked up seven points over the week-end on five goals and three assists to place second to Burford with 37 points. -Daily-Wally Barth RESTRICTED ZONE-Michigan guard, Hal Morrill blocks a push shot from the hand of the Spartan's Bill Rapchak shortly aster the Wolverines switched to a zone defense last night.

PINS PROVIDE PAYOFF: SophTrio Leads MichiganMatmen By BILL BRENTON An effective zone defense in the final ten minutes enabled Michi- gan's Wolverines to outlast Michi- gan State College for a 70-53 win last night at Yost Field House. In a nip and tuck battle which saw the lead change hands 15 times, Michigan came from be- hind at the nine-minute mark in the final stanza to pull away. * * * DIMINUTIVE Chuck Murray led a scoring parade that watched seven players, four wearing Michi- gan colors, hit double figures. The Birmingham (Mich.) guard hoop- ed 15 points; Leo VanderKuy, des- pite a bad night from the foul line, got 14, while Don McIntosh and Mack Suprunowicz bagged 13 and 12 points, respectively. With the Spartans hitting dis- tant set shots for a 40% first half average and the Maize and Blue relying on tip-ins and follow- ups for their points, the teams matched basket for basket in the opening stanza. But with a tie game looming at intermission, State forward Dan Smith, leading Spartan point- getter with 14 counters, hit two one-handers to give the visitors a, 37-34 halftime margin. CAPTAIN Mack Suprunowicz' pair of goals to open the second stanza knotted the count at 38- all, and the clubs settled down to the see-saw type of play once again. The 10-minute mark of the final session saw Suprunowicz collect his fifth foul. Steffen hit the free toss to make the score read 50-48 Michigan and the Wolverines switched to a tight zone defense. Then the now cold and baffled Spartans watched Coach Ernie McCoy's charges register, 12 con- secutive points to put the game out of reach. The zone proved ef- fective in blocking the one-handed accuracy of forwards Bill Rapchak and Smith, and assured the Wol- from the floor and meshed 28 against 22 shots to eke out a 30.4- 28.5 percentage win.

Foursome By GEORGE FLINT The word had gone round in Big Ten swimming circles that Ohio State's Buckeyes already had the Conference meet laurels wrapped up in their gray and red bath- robes. But down at the I-M pool Sat- urday night Matt Mann's Michi- gan Wolverines gave an indica- tion that they haven't quite con- ceded the meet to Mike Peppe's men, by downing an Iowa squad which, according to form, should have defeated the Maize and Blue decisively. A SWIMMER who has seen both teams in action (has, in fact, com- peted against both)-Iowa's Duane Draves - stated Saturday night that the Wolverines will defeat the talented splashers from Co- lumbus-if they continue to per- form as they did in the Hawkeye meet. On the other hand, coach Dave Armbruster of Iowa mini- mized the Michigan win, stating that his men swam way off form. From the first event, however, the Maize and Blue athletes per- formed like champions. In the medley relay Charlie Moss was caught in a 59. flat clocking for his 100-yard breastroke leg. The pool record here for that event is 1.00.2. The versatile Moss came back to amaze the crowd (and te Hawkeyes) by beating Iowa's vaunted Rusty Garst in the 100- yard free-style. Garst had been told to look out for sophomore Dave Neisch, and while the Hawkeye sprinter con- centrated on staying ahead of the regular Wolverine dash man, Moss opened up a lead in the first two pool lengths which enabled him to outlast Garst in 51.8. The same Garst swam prob- ably the best race of the night, although it was in a losing caus( Going into the last leg of th 400-yard free style relay with deficit of almost a body lengt on the Wolverine anchormai Garst swam a brilliant 50.7 cei tury, only to be touched out by tenth of a second.

LarryaNelson, Bill Stapp and Dave Space all have 8-1 records, Nelson having three pins, Stapp two, and Space one. UNTIL LAST Saturday's meet with Indiana, Nelson was unde- feated and might still be were it not for a close decision on the part of the referee. With little more than a min- ute left in the third period, Nel- son was ahead 3-2 and began to wrestle more cautiously in order not to lose his advantage. As the second hand showed only ten seconds remaining, the referee momentarily halted the match and awarded two points to the Hoos- ier's Bob Braebender, claiming that Nelson had been stalling. Thus, Braebender, who was Conference runner-up last year won, 4-3. Both Stapp and Space turned in fine performances over the week- end to continue on their winning ways. * * * SPACE, wrestling Bill Braeben- der, Bob's twin brother, in the 136-pound clash, upset the former Conference runner-up 7-5 with a splurge in the last period. In the 155-pound tussle, Bill Stapp also had to come from be- hind in the third stanza to de- feat Simon Priesant, 5-3. Prie- sant, who finished third in the Conference last season, was tout- ed as one of Indiana's top per- form ers. Following right behind the soph- omore trio is veteran Captain Jim Smith with a 6-2-1 record, with one of his wins coming via the pin route. SMITH easily handled Indiana's Dave Lyons, who is in his first year of varsity competition, beat- ing him 9-3. Next in the standings, are Bud Hlolcombe and Joe Planck with identical 3-3 records. Each man has also recorded one pin.
