Wolverine Cagers Battle Northwestern
In Try for Initial Conference Road Win

By HAROLD TANNER
Faced with only a slim chance
of finishing at the .500 mark for
Big Nine competition, Michigan's
cagers will attempt to end a
Srather dismal Conference road
slate with a victory tonight when
they engage Northwestern in the
,Chicago Stadium.
The two Big Nine foes play the
first game of a twin bill that finds
Loyola and DePaul meeting in the
nightcap.
THE WOLVERINES, currently
in seventh place in the circuit
with a 3-6 record, have yet to win
on the road in five starts and are
din the throes of a three game los-
ing streak in Conference play.
Michigan's last Big Nine vie-
* tory was recorded over the same
Wildcat five that provides to-
night's oposition. The Maize and
Blue romped to a 59-44 win amid
the friendly confines of Yost
Field House.

plete the campaign at the .500,

western and Purdue, doormats of
the league, and high flying Ohio
State. A win over the Buckeyes
would be a major upset, and the,
.500 percentage appears out of
range.

Injury Halts
Title Match
For Charles
By The Associated Press
BUFFALO, N. Y. - E z za r d
Charles, the NBA heavyweight
champion, pulled up tonight with
an injured side and his title go
with Freddie Beshore Tuesday
night was postpond.
Jake Mintz, Charles' manager,
declared that Ez would be unable
to fight for at least a month.

RALPH GOLD, Beshore's mana-
ger, immediately took a dim view
of the whole affair.
"It must have come out of
th eblue," he declared. "In my
opinion he (Charles) didn't
think he was in good enough
shape for my boy."
The promoter, the Fairview
Athletic Club, already was calling
the fight Buffalo's most success-
ful fistic venture. Advance sales
through today reportedly were
around $20,000.
THE CLUB announced that a
new date for the fight would be
set as soon as possible.
Mintz said Charles apparently
suffered some sort of injury when
hit in the left side by Jeff 'Clan-
ton, a sparring partner, in the
first round of a six-round work-

Tankmen Meet Stiff Test
Against Big Ten Champs

\

By GEORGE FLINT
Michigan's once-beaten swim-
miig team faces one of the sea-
son's toughest tests tonight as it
invades the stronghold of the de-
4 fending Conference champions,
the Ohio State Buckeyes.
The Buckeyes, loaded with vet-
erans and an unusual crop of
sophomore standouts, promise to
y be as good as in previous seasons,
when they won three out of the
last four Big Ten championships.
* * *
OHIO STATE'S diving contin-
gent, strongest in the Conference,
is headed by the redoubtable Bruce
Harlan, Olympic 10-meter cham-
pion; three consistent seniors,
Jack Calhoun, John Simpson, and
Hobie Billingsley, and sophomore
Joe Marino.
In the free-style sprints, the
Buckeyes can call on both Dick
Webber, a letterman, and Herb
Kobayashi, Hawaiian sophomore.
In the middle distances, Ohio
State has Jack Taylor, who has
turned in a 4:45.1 for the 440-
yard 'event and doubles in the
backstroke, and Mike Stefanos,
whose 2:10 for the 220 is one of
the top times in the Conference
this season.
* * *
TO ADD DEPTH in the dis-
tances, coach Mike Peppe's men
have Bunmei Nakama, younger
brother of the celebrated Keo,
who took fifth in the Conference
meet 440 last year.
* * *
Ohio State is solid in the
breaststroke event, too, boasting

a former national AAU cham-
pion in the 200-yard race. He is
Jose Balm ores, who at 26 has
the speed and experience to
make it tough for the Wolverine
duo of John Davies and Stew
Elliott. Along with Balmores,
Peppe can call on Robert Bar-
tels, another of the Buckeyes'
twelve returning lettermen.

In

been under 1:36 for the 150-
distance.

THE BUCKEYES can count on
their individual stars and capable
reserves to make up strong teams
in the free-style and medley re-
lays. Men who may see action in
the relays include Bruce Ransom,
Phil Knight, and Frank Dooley, in
the free-style, backstroker Gor-
don Leaf, and breaststroker Tom
Schauer.
Michigan's Matt Mann will
be counting on the power com-
bination of Matt Mann III and
Gus Stager in the distance free-
style events; Dave Neisch, Dick
Martin and Charlie Moss in the
sprints, and Tom Tittle for utili-
ty work in these events and the
free-style relay.
In the breaststroke, Moss, John
Davies, and Stew Elliott are avail-
able for action, and in the back-
stroke Bernie Kahn and Dick
Howell will carry the Wolverines'
hopes against the strong Buckeye
contingent. Divers George Eyster,
Jim Hartman and Frank Keller
will compete against Harlan & Co

'M' Gymnasts
In Triangular
ClashToday
By MARV EPSTEIN
Coach Newt Loken took an ab-
breviated version of the Michigan
gymnastics team to Madison, Wis-
consin this morning for a triang-
ular mete with Wisconsin and Io-
wa tonight.
Because the anticipated com-
petition in this meet is expected
to be as rough as any encountered
all season, the Michigan coach
has trimmed the normal ten-man
contingent to seven. The move was
prompted by a desire to make sure
of as many firsts as possible.
* * *
THE SEPTET, if it lives up to
the hopes of Loken, may well
form the basis for the crew which
will represent the Maize and Blue
in the Western Conference Meet,
exactly a month away.
All seven men who are mak-
ing the trip to Madison are vir-
tually cinch point getters. Nu-
cleus of the contingent is the
trampoline trio, composed of Ed
Bkchanan, Gordie Levenson,
and Tom Tillman.
They will be facing possibly
their severest test of the season
against a highly - touted Iowa
bounce outfit.
* * *
CAPTAIN PETE Barthell, soph-
omore flash Connie Ettl, Jeff
Knight and Bob Checkley round
out the Michigan team.
On the basis of season's rec-
ords Michigan is slightly fav-
ored to take the meet, but not
by too much. The Wolverines
get the nod over Iowa because
the Hawkeyes lost to Minnesota,
a team beaten by the Lokenmen.
They should also knock off Wis-
consin, if the past performances
of the Badgers have any signifi-
cance. Wisconsin lost to Michigan
State, which fell to Minnesota,
which took the short count from
Michigan.
