THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGR 111' G ymnasts Compete in -M * * *h Ten Meet Today Kansas State Downs NIT Champs, 64-54' Clinic Offers Sharpshooting Wildcats Favored to Represent East in NCAA Finals BULLETIN KANSAS CITY -- P) - Don Johnson sank two crucial goals in the last five minutes last night to insure the Oklahoma Aggies' 61 to 57 victory over Washington in the second West- ern NCAA semi-final game. KANSAS CITY -(A)- Forward Ed Head, scored in the clutch often enough last night to bring Kansas State a 64 to 54 victory over Brigham Young in the firstl semifinal game of the Western1 NCAA basketball playoffs. The defeat ended the Utah team's hope of sweeping the season's double crown. Head moved into the fray every' time Kansas State, the five and one-half point program favorite, started to falter. He wasn't the leading scorer and he wasn't the hottest defen- sive man but he was one of the big reasons the Big Seven cham- pion advanced to today's final round. * * * BIIGHAM YOUNG, which won the first leg the slam crown in the National Invitation Tourna- ment last week in New York, took the early lead, but when Coach Jack Gardner of Kansas State re- lieved six foot eight inch Lew Hitch of his scoring assignments and assigned him to stop Mel Hutchins, the Kansans began to roll. Hutchins was held to five baskets, three of them late in the game. * * * NEW YORK-(AP)-It may come as somewhat of a surprise, but coach Adolph Rupp of Kentucky things his Wildcats are due for a "good" game when they meet Il- linois in the Eastern Regional NCAA basketball final tonight at Madison Square Garden. The Baron 'of the Bluegrass is not one to spout optimism when there's chance to look at the dark side of things. He's worried about the Illini, he said, because his quintet hasn't played at peak form in some time (note: season's re- cord, 30-2). * * * BESIDES, HE pointed out, he has had very little opportunity to scout the Big Ten champions, who have a season mark of 21-4. North Carolia State, Illinois' victim last night, played a zone defense; Ken- tuky uses a floating man to man. Said St. John's mentor Frank McGuire, whose team was throt- tled by the Wildcats in the quar- ter-finals: * * * "THAT KENTUCKY team - everybody can score." Clair Bee, Long Island Univer- sity coach observed: "Kentucky can run and Illi- nois likes to run. Kentucky can score and Illinois likes to score. I look for a high scoring game with Kentucky the winner.". Seven-foot Bill Spivey, the Wildcats' big scorer, ceuld prove the difference. With him con- trolling the backboards, Ken- tucky is nextbto impossible to beat. If coach Harry Combes' team is to put on a good show against Kentucky, which held a virtual stranglehold on the top spot in the Associated Press poll all through the regular season, Bob Peterson is the man who will have- to play the main role. PETERSON IS A mere six-feet eight-inches tall, and he'll have to take care of Spivey. Tank Men Win Letters Coach Matt Mann last night announced the award of varsity letters to 17 members of the 1951 swimming team.

Tennis Tips' To Coaches A unique type of tennis clinic sponsored by the University Ath- letic Department takes place to- day, starting at I-M building at 9:30 this morning. Intended primarily for High School tennis coaches and pros- pective coaches, (present physical education majors) the clinic will feature some of the celebrities of tennis coaching in the state of Michigan. * * * FEATURED guest of the event is Mrs. Jean Hoxie, famed tennis coach from Hamtramck and men- tor of a number of national junior champions. Another well-known net men- tor present will be Merlin Schultz, coach of Grosse Pointe High School, a perennial power in Michigan High School tennis. Schultz's squad at present en- joys a phenomenal winning streak of 64 straight dual meets. An especially honored guest which will make spectators "see double" is Chet Murphy, tennis coach of the University of Chica- go, and twin brother of Michigan net mentor Bill Murphy. The two brothers look so alike that it is almost impossible to distinguish them. * * * FOLLOWING A demonstration session which will last till 12:30 noon at the main gym of the Sports Building, the clinic will re- tire to Roont 3R and S of the Michigan Union where movies will be shown. All events on the program are open to the public. The films shown will be an in- structional film by Don Budge and reels of the 1947 Davis Cup and 1947 National Championships, fea- turing Jack Kramer and Ted Schroeder in some of their great- est matches. High School and Preparatory coaches from all parts of the state are expected to attend the clinic, the first event of the 1951 Wol- verine tennis program. Justice Dept.

Illinois is heavily favored to re- tain the Big Ten Title. Minnesota and Michigan State figure to fin- ish second and third respectively, with Michigan and Ohio State not too far behind. Expected also- rans include Iowa, Wisconsin, Northwestern and Indiana. S * * * WOLVERINE entrants in to- day's meet are Jeff Knight, Con- nie Ettl and Captain Ed Bucha- nan. Knight, Michigan's standout side horse performer, will com- pete against a group of top "horsemen," including Frank Dolan of Illinois, Doug Soren- son of Minnesota and Tom Franklin of Ohio State. The Wolverines will rely on the services of dependable Connie Ettl in the all-around event. Ettl should place near the top in the highly competitive high barncon- test; entrants in the high bar in- clude Dolan, Bob Sullivan of Illi- nois and Michigan State's Mel Stout. THE TRAMPOLINE event should result in a close battle be- tween Buchanan, national tram- poline champion for the past two years, and Bob Harris of Iowa, last year's Big Ten trampoline champion. The gymnasts who compete today at Madison will be among the outstanding performers here in Ann Arbor. Also competing will be star gymnasts from Sy- racuse, Florida State, Navy, Springfield, Colorado, Temple, Army and California. The two outstanding non-con- ference entrants in the NCAA tournament are Joe Kotys of Kent State and Florida State's Bill Roetzheim. KOTYS HOLDS the all-around, high bar and parallel bars NCAA crowns. Roetzheim, , NAAU all- around title holder, recently com- peted for the United States in the Pan American Olympic games where he eclipsed 65 competitors from throughout the hemisphere. Gene Rabbitt, national side horse champion from Syracuse, will defend his title in that event; Rabbitt's team mate, Leo Minotti, will also defend his rope climb crown. Other first rate entrants in the NCAA meet include Joe Babe of Syracuse, Jack Kleberg and Bob Wheeler of Army, Temple's John Gallante and Charles Koessian. and Charles Simms of Southern California. NCAA SWIM FORECAST: Yale To Give OSU Top Challenge * #' # By GEORGE FLINT OhioyState University would seem a shoo-in for the NCAA swimming title, if the chief fac- tor in that probability were as- sumed to be the Buckeyes' over- whelming margin in the Big Ten meet two weeks ago. The powerful crew from Co- lumbus goes into the meet next week at Austin, Texas with \an unblemished dual meet record, a trio of divers who are almost cer- tain to gain 20 or more points, and a corps of backstrokers who will spend most of their time fight- ing each other for first places. . . BUT LOOMING up to challenge the Western Conference cham- pions is the pride of the East,' Yale University, and a churning free-styler named John Marshall. Marshall, who set the swim- ming world a-buzzing last spring with his five world's records in the National AAU champion- ships, is even better as a Bull- dog sophomore this season. In the Eastern championships a week ago, Marshall set a trio of marks in his distance special- ties, including a spectacular 4:33.8' in the 440-yard free style.

That's the 1500-meters, where Taylor's 1950 record of 18:38 might well fall into oblivion. Yale will also give the Bucks trouble in their favorite back stroke, where they piled up a phenomenal number of points in the Western Conference meet. Dick Thoman of the Bulldogs is only slightly below the stan- dard of 57.3 set by Taylor in the 100-yard backstroke in those championships. The Eli ace swam a good 58.4 in the Eastern Inter- collegiate meet. IT'S IN THE 220 that the Yale men expect to reap their largest point-harvest. In that free style race, coach Bob Kiphuth fields a team 'of amazing sophomores comprising larshall, who went the distance in 2:06.8 at the east- ern meet; Wayne Moore; Olympic distance champ Jimmy McLane, and John Blum. Those four finished in that order at the seaboard cham- pionships to give the Bulldogs a sweep of the event. It's al- most the same story in the afore- mentioned 440, where McLane and Moore the ack-ack support behind Marshall, the big artil- lery. In the diving, Ohio's Bob Clot- worthy, Al Coffey and Joe Marino could have their supremacy chal- and Moore are the ack-ack sup- port behind Marshall, the big artillery. WHAT MAY turn out to be the pivotal event of the Austin water carnival is the 400-yard free style relay, where Ohio's terrific quartet will face a Yale team composed of Moore, Donald Sheff, Bill Farns- worth and Al Reid. The result should be a terrific battle for the all-important relay points. Yale was second to Ohio State in last year's championships at Columbus, Ohio. With the obvious superiority they've gained in the distance events by the eligibility of their terrific freshman team for varsity competition as sophomores this season, the Eli may well be the long-sought road-block for Peppe's tank titans. SAN Takes I-M PinTitle Paced by Nonny Weinstock's 229 effort, Sigma Alpha Mu scored a decisive victory over Pi Lambda Phi to win the I-M fraternity bowling crown. Weinstock's game capped a 548 series, the high score in SAM's 2454-2228 triumph. Arnie Ruby topped the losers with a 489 tally. SAM SWEPT all three rounds by wide margins. In doing so, they copped their first I-M title in over two years. Dick Cinoman was runner-up for the winners with a 504 total. He was the leader in the first two games for SAM with 176 and 173 scores.

WASHINGTON-0)-The Jus- tice Department said yesterday it has asked the National Collegiate Athletic Association for an ex- planation of its recent ban on televising college football games. In response to inquiries, the department disclosed that its An- ti-Trust Division is studying the question as part of its general scrutiny of 'relationships between big time sport and the radio and television industries. THIS IS the first time that ama- teur sport has come into the pic- ture. There was no immediate com- ment from NCAA. Dr. Hugh Willett, member of the Univer- sity of Southern California fac- ulty and president of NCAA, said on the coast that he would have nothing to say until Monday, when he expects to receive the letter from the Justice Depart- ment. The Justice Department would not comment on the legal aspects of the latest inquiry, but some le- gal authoritieshhere are of the opinion that the NCAA can ban the televising of college football if it is a complete ban. WHEN THE justice department began its investigation about three years ago only baseball was in- volved. The department raised ob- jections to some of the restrictions on radio broadcasts of big league games. This resulted in a broad revision of radio rights to make on-the-field broadcasts. ST.
