Four Teams
To Play as
NIT Opens
LIT, Dayton Meet
In Initial Round
By The Associated Press
NEW YORK-The National In
vitational Basketball Tournamen
opens this afternoon at Madiso
Square Garden with several of
the "big name" collegiate cag
teams noticeably absent.
Among the recognized power
who have chosen to pass up th
NIT tourney are the nation's twc
top-ranked teams, Kentucky an
Oklahoma A & M, plus the Brad
ley Brayes, rated 6th in the coun,
try in the last AP poll.
* * *
ALSO MISSING are City College
of New York, who won both the
NIT and NCAA crowns, and Long
Island University. Both school
withdrew from further cage corn-
petition after the recent bribe
scandal in New York City.
Without these top-ranked
teams, several of the smaller
collegiate basketball powers have
come into the limelight. Includ-
ed among the small college
teams are Lawrence Tech, win-
ner of 20 of 22 starts this sea-
son, Beloit College and Dayton
University.
Other schools in the tourna-
ment include Seton Hall, St
John's, North Carolina State, St
Louis, Arizona, Cincinnati, Brig-
ham Young, St. Bonaventure, anc
La Salle College.
ST. JOHN'S (22-3) is seeded
first in the tournament, followed
by North Carolina State (28-4),
Brigham Young (24-7), and Ari-
zona (24-4).
Lawrence Tech, who lost only
to City College and Washington
and Jefferson, both by only two
points, faces Dayton University
at 2 p.m. this afternoon. The
only other game today pits Se-
ton Hall against high-scoring
Beloit College of Wisconsin.
The Buccaneers of Beloit es-
tablished a new all-time scoring
record this season as they raced
through 22 games averaging 86.6
points per game.
-* * *
INCLUDED in their fine record
is a 94-60 trouncing of a good
De Paul University five, plus a
141-53 pasting administered to
Cornell College of Iowa in their
last tuneup game before the NIT.
St. John's, sole remaining New
York City entry in the NIT,
boasts high-scoring Bob Zawo-
luk at center, plus a well-bal-
anced club paced by Al McGuire,
Jack MacMahon and Ron Mac-
Gilveray.
* North Carolina State will again
rely on its fine scoring ace, Sam
Ranzino, picked by the AP on its
first-string All-American team.
The Wolfpack may prove the sur-
prise of the tournament.
* * *
ARIZONA, who defeated City'
College and Long Island Univer-
sity in "questionable" games dur-
ing the season, and a sophomore
laden Seton Hall five may show
unusual strength during the
course of the tourney.
Seton Hall, paced by New Jer-
seyite Walter Dukes, and Brig-
ham Young are dark horses in
the tournament. Mel Hutchins
and Rollie Minson will lead the
Cougars from Utah into the NIT
seeking to recoup for an early
season loss in the Garden to City
College.

RateTigers'
Flag Hopes
Much Better
LAKELAND, Fla.-(P)-The De-
troit Tigers are going to have
pretty sharp claws in 1951.
That was the only conclusion
one could draw today after watch-
ing the Red Rolfemen hustle their
way through the first 10 days of
their spring training campaign.
* * *
NOBODY is talking "pennant"
in the Tiger camp. It's kind of
hard to get enthusiastic about
Tiger chances in the 1951 pen-
nant scramble when you consider
how much improved the Red Sox,
Indians and Yankees are.
Manager Rolfe has said he
figures the Tigers will be lucky
to finish in the top three. Most
all the newspapermen covering
the Tiger camp agreed with him.
Their reasoning was sound, for,
on paper, the Tigers are no strong-
er than their 1950 counterparts.
The loss of young Art Houtteman
-19-game winner last season, was
considered a mortal blow to Tiger
hopes.
BUT, SURPRISINGLY enough,
there is a more optimistic feeling
around the Tiger camp after the
first few days of spring training.
The squad is in tip-top physi-
cal condition, except for a couple
of minor aches and pains among
members of the pitching staff.
Every man on the roster has
been giving his utmost in the pre-
season conditioning work. This
applies even to the "veterans"-
fellows you'd figure would be a
little bored and tired with the
spring training routine after so
many seasons.
Don Laz of Illinois became the
third person to clear the magic
15-foot mark, but even more re-
markable is the fact that for the
first time in the same meet two
men cleared 15 feet as Bob Rich-
ards tied Laz at the winning 15
ft. % inch mark.
RICHARDS previously entered
the 15-foot class dominated by
the great Cornelius Warmerdam.
Another surprise of the eve-
ning was the second straight de-
feat of former Wisconsin star
Don Gehrmann in the mile re-
lay by Len Truex of Ohio State.
Fred Wilt, Gehrmann's usual
competitor, did not participate in
this meet.
Truex's time was 4:13.8.
* * *
THE LONE VICTORY for a
Michigan man was brought home
by Jack Carroll, a freshman from
Canada, in the 600 yard dash.
Carroll triumphed over such
conference stars as Gene Cole
of Ohio State and Henry Cryer
of Illinois, who followed in sec-
ond and third place respectively.
In the 45-yard high hurdles Don
Hoover of Michigan came home
third behind Harrison Dillard, the
consistent specialist who won in
5.6 seconds. Jesse Thomas of
Michigan State was second.
THE 45-YARD DASH was won
by Jim Bibbs of Michigan Normal,
with Bill Conrad of the Wolver-
ines placing fourth behind Bill
Dwyer and Thomas.
The Wolverines were not too7
successful in the mile and two-4
mile relays in which they were
featured.
They did place second in the
mile behind Purdue with Pitts-
burgh third, but could only garner
third place in the two-mile relay.
* * *
GEORGETOWN won this event
with a record time of 7:40.3 while
Indiana was second.
Michigan was without anchor
man Don McEwen who is in Can-
ada and Charlie Whiteaker took
his .place in that position.
By JIM PARKER
Michigan and Michigan Tech,
two teams that just don't seem to
be on the best of terms with each
other, went at it again last night
at the Michigan Ice Coliseum.
And in sixty minutes the 2,000
fans saw two fights, 12 penalties
called (ten in the rough-house
second period) and 11 goals scor-
ed, eight for Michigan and three
for the Huskies.
BUT AN EVEN greater surprise
greeted the spectators when they
saw Earl Keyes in the Michigan
nets. Regular goalie Hal Downes
had come down with a case of
flu Thursday and had to enter
Health Service yesterday after-
noon. He is not expected to play
tonight.
Keyes, who has never before
played goalie in a regular game,
proved a more than capable
substitute. The Tiverton, Ont.,
junior, who usually centers the
second line, made 24 saves

Tank Meet
Special to The Daily
MINNEAPOLIS - Michigan
qualified three men and a relay
team in the Big Ten swimming
meet preliminaries being held
here in the Minnesota pool.
Defending champion Ohio
State jumped way out in front
by placing 11 men and a relay
team, while Michigan State is
their closest challenger with
four qualifiers and their relay
team.
The Wolverine representa-
tives will be breast strokers
John Davies and Stu Elliott at
200 yards and Wally Jeffries in
the 220 yard free-style.
Davies produced the fastest
time in the 200 breast stroke
by registering a 2:19.5 mark.
Elliott was fourth.
Jeffries placed second in the
point of time to Michigan
State's Bernie McLachlan who
touched in at 2:10.7.
Finals in all events will be
run tonight.

'Gamnes Over;
U. S. Second
BUENOS AIRES-(1)-A crowd
of 75,000 in flood-lit River Plate
Stadium cheered the formal clos-
ing of the first Pan-American
games last night before President
Juan Peron, Senora Peron and
other dignitaries.
A band of 500 pieces blared as:
the flags of the 20 competing na-
tions were paraded and the Pan-
American torch, lighted on Feb.
25, was extinguished.
Climaxing the colorful night
ceremonies President Peron hand-
ed out many final championship
medals, including those to the
United States basketball team
which beat Argentina for the title
Thursday night, 57 to 51.
In the final unofficial point
score, compiled by the Associated
Press, Argentina rolled up 1,0711/2
points. The United States was sec-
ond with 7342 and Chile third
with 387. Other scores: Brazil 260,
Mexico 252, Cuba 116, Peru 100,
Trinidad 28, Venezuela 24%, Col-
ombia 22, Ecuador 20, Panama 12,
Jamaica 12, Paraguay 7, Haiti 7,
Cotsa Rica 5, Nicaragua 2, El
Salvador 2.1
against a Tech six that was a
much better club than its 3 won
12 lost record indicates.
Keyes came up with some great
stops and two of the ones that
got by him came when Joe De-
Bastiani, a tricky sophomore,
broke through two Michigan de-
fenders on two different occa-
sions for open shots on goal.
* * *
BUT THOSE two times DeBas-
tiani broke through were about the
only times that Wolverine defense-
men were outplayed. The rest of
the times the Michigan rear guard
and back-checking forwards com-
bined to give the Huskies a bad
time on Michigan ice.
Al Bassey dragged down scor-
ing honors for the Wolverines
by racking up a hat trick, his
first three-goal effort in his
three years of Michigan hockey.
Gil Burford was next in line
with two goals and three assists
which put him even with the 64
points he scored last year and
stood as Michigan's individual
scoring record until teammate
Neil Celley erased the mark last
weekend.
CELLEY ADDED four more
points to his total (one goal, three
assists), placing him at the 71
point mark. John Matchefts and
Bob Heatcott, who took Keyes'
place at center on the second
line, scored one apiece.
After a slow first period that
left the score tied, 1-1, the Wol-
verines came out on the ice for
the second frame and it was
soon evident that Michigan was
going to make up for a loose
brand of hockey that stretched
back to the Michigan State game
a week ago.
With methodical precision ,the
Wolverines went to work. Bur-
ford scored on a solo at 1:56 and
Bassey connected after a goal-
mouth scramble at 3:30.
* * *
TECH'S RAY PURO got one of
those back six minutes later, but
at 11:34 Bassey drilled home a
long shot from just inside the
blue line.
Two minutes had rolled by
when Heathcott made it 5-2
with teammate Matchefts in
the cooler.
With five minutes to play, cen-
ter ice became the scene of a
wild brawl that started when
Matchefts and Puro became a:
little peeved at each other. Both
drew two minutes for "hooking."
BY THIS TIME the crowd was:
in the mood for "action" and one
Michigan goal later (Bassey's
third), John McKennell and Bill
Robertson supplied it when they
had a dispute in the right corner
of Michigan ice. The referees
banished both for roughing.
In the third period things cool-
ed off a bit with Burford back-
handing one in and Matchefts
converting Celley's goal-mouth
pass for Michigan's seventh and
eighth goals.
FIRST PERIOD: 1-Michigan, Cel-
ley (Matchefts, Burford), 10:29; 2-

CAMPUS CHAPEL
(Sponsored by the Christian Reformed

The basketball season came to
an official close yesterday after-
noon with the election of Jim
Skala as captain of the 1951-52
team.
The genial six-foot-three for-
ward from Chicago, received the
honor at a meeting of this sea-
son's letter winners.
IN ADDITION to the captaincy,
team members named their most
valuable player, Leo VanderKuy,
who was the sixth highest point-
maker in the Western Conference.
VanderKuy averaged 15.1
points in 14 league engagments.
Skala scored 95 points over the
same route for an average yield
of 6.7.
Skala's election completed a
three-cornered coincidence which
began when he was a freshman.

Subsequently Putich was named

baseball club when the season op-
ens in three weeks.
Skala's finest performance
came in an early season non-
Conference tilt with highly re-
garded North Carolina State.
He registered 17 points, two of
which camne on a long set shot
in the last minute of regulation
play which tied the score at 58-
58, and sent the game into over-.
time.
He contributed another fielder
in the extra period but his under-
dog team couldn't muster enough
strength to halt the Wolfpacks,
Michigan lost, 65-62.
