'Kim SIX THE MICHIGAN DAILY SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 25 1951 ;,' f i Wolverine Gymnasts, Swimmers Dropped by 0S U Buchanan, Ettl Perform BrilliantlyinVain Effort * * * * 'M', Buckeyes Grapple to Draw Ohioans Sink Michigan; Garner Easy 55-29 Win * * * By JOE EPSTEIN The Ohio State University gym- nastics team squeezed out a 49 /2 to 461/2 win over the Wolverine squad yesterday afternoon, but the two outstanding performers of the day were a pair of Michi- gan gymnasts - Connie Ettl and Captain Ed Buchanan. Ettl performed consistently well' throughout the meet to earn top scoring honors of the day with a first place on the parallel bars, a tie with Buckeye Don Schimpf for high bar laurels, a third on the flying rings and a side horse fourth place. * . BUCHANAN, holder of several national trampoline. titles, dis- played rare form to win the trampoline event over a talented trio of OSU sophomore "tramp- men'-Dennis Harget, Bob Mar- tin and Bob Henning. Buchanan brought the crowd to their feet with his routine which includes the difficult back triple twist, a trick which only three collegiate gymnasts can perform. "The better team won; we did better than we thought we could," said Michigan coach Newt Loken. Loken attributed the loss to Buckeye supremacy in the tumbling and trampoline events. Joe Hewlett, Ohio State coach, felt that his team did "not live up to expectations." He named Harget and Martin as outstanding Buckeye prospects for, the future, explaining that neither of those boys were "up" for the Michigan meet. YOUR HAIR STYLE is blended and shaped to your individual desires 9 BARBERS NO WAITING The DASCOLA BARBERS Liberty near State IMICHIGAN'S Jeff Knight per- formed creditably to take an un- disputed first on the side horse. The Maize and Blue virtually sweep this event as Bob Checkley was third and Ettl fourth. On the high bar, both Ettl and Schimpf went through their routines in a manner as nearly perfect as is ever seen in ama- teur gymnastics. Their point score was identical, and was the highest individual point score of the meet-275 out of a possible 300. Ettl's parallel bars win was due to another very high score-273. Ohio State's Andy Breiner was a close second with 271, and Wally Niemann of Michigan took third.' * * * BUCKEYE Co - Captain Jack Thompson, one of four lettermen on the OSU team, captured top honors in the flying rings con- test. John Mills of Michigan, showing tremendous improvement over past performances, was sec- ond, with Ettl and Breiner tied for third.

Triple Weight Juggle Secures 12-12 Deadlock for Ohio State LARRY NELSON. . .. undefeated season * * * i Mi HAMILTON WATCH America's Preferred Watch t tig s j, i o s Old Marks fall As MSC Wins Over Hoosiers By The Associated Press EAST LANSING, MICH.-() - Michigan State swimmers bet- tered three Big Ten times while beating Indiana ."University 56 to 37 in a Western Confernce dual pool meet here yesterday. The Spartans took first in all but three of the ten events. * * * CLARK SCHOLES of Detroit did the 100-yard free style in :50.4, best Western Conference time in the event was :51.3 by Wally Ris of Iowa in 1949. The time also was a new dual meet, varsity and pool record. Sophomore Bert McLachlin of Denver, Colo., swimming the gruelling distance for the first time, hung up a good mark of 18:41.8 in the 1500-meter free style. The best big ten time for the stretch as 18:58.1 by Jack Taylor of Ohio State in 1950. The time also set a new Dual Meet, Varsity and Pool record. The old pool record of 19:43.4 as set by Rene Chateau of Yale in 1941. A MICHIGAN STATE relay team of Dave Hoffman, Jim Quig- ley, Clarke Scholes and George Hoogerhyde swam the 400-yard free style relay in 3:27.8. The Western Conference record is 3:29.2 by Iowa in 1949. This also was a new Dual Meet, Varsity and Pool record. Although the Western Con- ference times were bettered, they will not go into the record books because the marks were not made in conference champ- ionship competition. Larry Meyer was the big point- getter for Indiana with wins in the 200-yard backstroke and the 150-yard individual medley. Frank. Pisacreta of Indiana swam the 50- yard free style in :23.3 to set a new dual meet record.' New Dual Meet records also were set in the 300-Yard Medley Relay, 220-Yard Free Style and 200-Yard Free Style and 200-Yard Breaststroke, all by Michigan State. By CY CARLTON Michigan and Ohio State battled to a 12-12 tie yesterday afternoon in the final wrestling match of the season at Yost Field House due mainly to the shrewdness of one Casey Fredericks. The aforementioned Fredericks, coach of the Columbus matmen, moved three of his wrestlers down one weight in a battle of twd un- beaten squads, in an attempt to bring an end to a nine match Michigan winning streak. ALL THREE of the men who were "starved" by Fredericks and moved down, won their matches to provide the margin by which the OSU matmen gained the tie. Two Michigan grapplers fin- ished the season undefeated. Larry Nelson at 123 pounds won his tenth straight match of the season as he whalloped Bill Weber of the Buckeyes, 10-6 and Jack Gallon finished his Sopho- more season at 130 pounds with one tie and nine wins as he scored a takedown in the final ten seconds to beat George Molodet, an experienced light- weight, 3-1, in the closest match of the'afternoon. In the 137 pound class, Michi- gan ran afoul as a result of Fredericks' sagacity. Ohio's Ron Lax moved down from 147 pounds pummelled Joe Scandura in a 15-4 rout to score the first Buckeye points of the meet. DAVE SPACE went to the mat at 147 pounds for Michigan and found himself confronted with Bryce Keough, OSU Captain and defending Conference champ at 155 pounds. Keough proved too much for the Wolverine grappler and won, 7-3, as a result of a strong second period. A 9-7 loss to Fred McLean, oustanding Buckeye 167 pound- er, "starved" to ,57 pounds for the occasion, was the fate of Michigan captain Bill Stapp. Stapp lost the match via two rid- ing time points awarded to Mc- Lean. Michigan wrestlers won decisive victories at 167 and 177 pounds. At 167, Bud Holcombe shutout Ken Kistner, a sophomore wrestling his first competitive match, 9-0. Need- ing a pin to win, Michigan coach Cliff Keen sent Holcombe and Joe Planck out to try for a fall and the veteran grappler almost obliged, having several close calls. IT WAS MUCH the same story at 177 pounds as Michigan's Joe Planck won easily, beating Jackc Milligan, 10-2. Milligan narrowly missed being pinned by the Michi- gan grappler several times. Planck's win assured Michigan of a draw if Art Dunne could escape being pinned in the heavyweight match. This could prove difficult since Dunne's op- ponent, Bill Miller, OSU defend- ing champ had won each of his season's bouts via the fall route. However, Miller was unable to locate the shoulders of the speedy Dunne although he finished on the long end of a 12-0 score. Dunne's showing clinched the tie for Mich- igan. This -match left the Wolverines and Buckeyes the only undefeated teams in the.Western Conference. The two should be favored to do battle with Purdue and Michigan' State in a four way skirmish for the diaden at Evanston next weekend. 123 POUNDS-Larry Nelson (Mich- igan) decisioned Bill Weber (Ohio), State), 10-6, three points for Michi- gan 130 POUNDS-Jack Gallon (Mich- igan) decisioned George Molodet (Ohi6 State), 3-1, three points for Michigan 137 POUNDS-Ronald Lax (Ohio State) decisioned Joe Scandura (Michigan), 15-4, three points for Ohio State 147 POUNDS-Bryce Keough (Ohio State) decisioned Dave Space (Mich- igan), 7-3, three points for Ohio State 157 POUNDS-Fred McLean (Ohio State) decisioned Bill Stapp (Michi- gan), 9-7, three points for Ohio State 167 POUNDS -- Bud Holcombe (Michigan) decisioned Ken Kistner (Ohio State), 9-0, three points for Michigan 177 POUNDS-Joe Planck (Michi- gan) decisioned Jack Milligan (Ohio State), 10-2, three points for Michi- gan HEAVYWEIGHT' - Bill Miller (Ohio State) decisioned Art (Moose) Dunne, 12-0, three points for Ohio State JACK GALLON . .. same here LIT Cagers Drop Niagara For 21StWin NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y.-(P)_- The Lawrence Tech Blue Devils ,trengthened their National Invi- tation chances yesterday by de- feating Niagara's Eagles, also an NIT prospect, 69-53. It was the 21st victory in 23 starts and the sixth in the past eight days for the speedy De- troiters, who were closing out their season. The Detroiters sped to a nine- point lead at the 10-minute mark. The Eagles trimmed the margin to three points at half time. MINORS TO MAJORS? Trautman Vies for Chandler's Position By GEORGE FLINT Ohio State's powerful and bal- anced swimming team defeated Michigan easily at the Varsity pool here yesterday. The score was 55-29. * * . * THE BUCKEYES took every event but the free style relay and the 50 on their way to the win. Although no swimmer com- pleted a double win in the meet, the splashing of the smoothly-, stroking Jack Taylor and cap- tain Herb Kobayashi was instru- mental in the Buckeyes' formid- able margin. For Michigan, it was a grey day, but Wolverines Dick Martin, who won the 50-yard free style, and Stew Elliott and Wally Jeffries, who grabbed seconds in the breast- stroke and the 440, gave the Maize and Blue their few bright mo- ments. passed up the 220 to swim a leg of the iedley relay, came up with one of his very best races as he took second to Taylor in the 440. With Taylor swimming an excel- lent 4:44.6, the dogged Michigan free styler kept with the Buckeye ace for 300 yards, and wasn't far back at the finish. Jeffries' clock- ing was around the 4:50 mark. - * * * WOLVERINE Wayne Leengran also showed improvement in this race, taking third ahead of Ohio's Charley Stephanos. The Ohio State diving dynasty looked to be in its usual stable condition, as a red-haired picture of grace named Al Coffey defeated his teammate and Nationi AAU champion, Joe Marino, by a 12- point spread. Coffey's sixth dive, a double twisting one and one-half, forward one and one-half earned him the amazing point score of 65. The Buckeyes' score in the meet was identical with that by which Michigan State defeated Michigan at East Lansing earlier this sea- son. Ohio has already beaten the Spartans in a dual meet this year.'. ONE POOL RECORD was set. Ohio State's second best back- stroker (Taylor is ordinarily no. 1), Bill Sonner, posted a 2:14.4 in the 200-yard event-a new distance in the Big Ten this year. The Michigan victory in the 400-yard free style was some- thing of an upset, since the Butckeye sprint corps is as strong as anybody's. Michigan's Jim White led OSU's Charley White by a head at the end of their leg. Bob Byberg turned the race into a runawy in his leg, as he pulled away from the Buck- eyes' Sonner to open up a 1 2 body-length lead. Martin and cap- tain Dave Neisch held on to the margin and the Wolverines had won in 3:32.4. * *, * ELLIOTT'S SECOND to the Ohio State .sophomore, Gerald Holan, was something of a sur- prise, but Holan's last-lap kick was too much for the capable Michigan breaststroker.

University Near Hill Auditorium "a4 A-, GROVER $64.00 I, in Ann Arbor 508 East William Street d'S 'S By The Associated Press University of Detroit officials announced yesterday that Dutch Clark, ex Detroit Lions star and Titan backfield coach, had been named to take over the head coaching chores vacated by the resignation of Chuck Baer. . Along with the announcement of Clark's appointment came word that Detroit athletic -director, Lloyd Brazil, would retain his po- sition in the Titan athletic setup. THE WHOLESALE SHUFFLE which brought Baer's resignation caused similar action on the part of line coach John Shad, and backfield mentor Ed Barbour. The Very Rev. Celestin J. Steiner, S. J., University Presi- dent, said Clark would name three assistants soon. An ath- letic Business Manager also will Pue appointed later, he said. Fr. Steiner said Clark would have "all the authority in the world to stand or fall on his own" and would not be responsible in any way to Lloyd Brazil. T H E SCHOOL'S ATHLETIC setup has. been marked in recent years by jurisdictional squabbles, which were believed responsible for Baer's resignation. The length of Clark's contract has not been decided yet, said Fr. Steiner, but will run for "more than one year." His sal- ary was not revealed. Thirty-five persons were re- ported to have applied for the job. Clark's , first venture into pro ball was with Portsmouth, Ohio. He came to Detroit in 1934 when the Lions took over the Ports- mouth franchise in thehNational League.' By GAYLE TALBOT PHOENIX-(AP)-George Traut- man, the boss of the minors, still is very much in the running for Baseball Commissioner. As a mat- ter of fact, he almost certainly is the hottest of the three remain- ing candidates as of this moment. The men who are determined to oust Albert B. Chandler from the $65,000 a year post fully intend to go into the March 12 meeting at Miami Beach with a single name to present to their fellow club owners. * * * ' TRAUTMAN'S CHANCES of be- ing the anti-Chandler candidate are best, this reporter learns, be- cause he is ready and eager to en- ter the lists now, without waiting for Chandler to resign or, perhaps, complete his term more than a year from now. James J. Farley is said to be willing to take the job but not to compete with Chandler for it. The anti-Chandler forces think they know exactly what the Commissioner will try to do when the meeting opens. He will, of course, be presiding. "He'll try to get a quick vote on his own name, before our man can be placed in nomination," one of the group predicts. "But we've got him stopped there. He can't force another vote on himself without getting unanimous consent, which he won't get. "YOU CAN BET that every time a vote is taken our man's name will be in the pot, too. Chandler hasn't got an outside chance of ever hav- ing his contract renewed, in my opinion." The informant insists that the anti-Chandler faction has pick- ed up at least two new members since the meeting at St. ]Peters- burg last December. The final vote there was 9 to 7 in favor. of keeping Chandler in office. A three-quarters majority, or 12 votes, is necessary to elect a Commissioner or to renew his seven-year contract. So, if Chandler's opponents have indeed gained a pair of recruits and enter the meeting holding a 9-7 or even 10-6 bulge, they still will be short of the vote needed to install their candidate. But that doesn't worry them. They feel completely confident that a secret ballot or two will make it plain that Chandler can- not hope to win, and that the re- quisite number of his supporters then will quietly alter their votes and it will all be over. What it boils down to is that several club owners in particular President Fred Saigh of the St. Louis Cardinals, dislike Chandler intensely. Most of those who are going along with Saigh now are doing so because they have a feel- ing they need a new foreman. "If you really want to know the truth," one of them says "it wouldn't have happened if Happy hadn't demanded that new con- tract more than a year before his present one expires. If he had gone along quietly and finished out his contract I don't think there's a doubt he would have been hand- ed another one." Indoor Tennis FinalsToday NEW YORK-(P-) - Seventh- seeded Straight Clark of Pasa- dena, Calif., upset top-seeded Dep McNeill, 6-4, 4-6, 4-6, 6-1, 6-0, to gain the' finals of the National Indoor Tennis Championship yes- terday. * * * CLARK WILL meet New York's Bill Talbert for the title today. Talbert whipped Ed Moylan of Trenton, N. J., 6-4, 6-3, 7-5, to move up. The fall of McNeill, the de- fending champion, came a great surprise. After trailing two games to one, Clark unfurled his powerful backcourt place- mentsrto eliminate the New Yorker Second-seeded Talbert won eas- ily. The youthful Jerseyite ex- tended him only briefly in the third set. .,4 ostess hint for winter housewarming WEBSTE Ra CHICAGO { 3-Speed Portable Fonograf* L tr= - I i THE MICHIGAN LEAGUE S NDAY DINNER MENU ROUND UP ROOM l >4- I.
