THE MiCHIGAN DAILY PAGE THI~I DARLING RECORD HAPPY: 'C lt li ( H t l del SSecond-Flight Fives Look To Upset illini Mentors Gain 12-8 Margin; Volleyball Victories Decisive r * * * * By RUSS AIUTO The seemingly-ageless faculty, proved their worth last night by cooling the ardor of the students, 12-8, in the annual Faculty-Stu- dent IM Tournament. Amid the clheers of encourage- ment of wives and children, the Instructors put on inspired per- formances to edge the students in eight sports and twenty matches. FACULTY 29, STUDES 26 A rough and ready faculty cage team fought off a last-minute surge by an equally aggressive stu- dent squad for a 29-26 victory. The wild contest was marked by a to- tal of 39 personal fouls. The students jumped off to a frst-quarter 7-4 lead as a result of Captain Bill Putich's two scores. Faculty captain Dave Strack started the instructors' scoring bid with a fielder and two free throws, narrowing the gap as the half ended with the stu- dents out in front 9-7. Jayvee coachJ. T. White start- ed the second half with a quick drive-in to tie up the game and,, after -Strack's charity score, gave the teachers a lead that they never relinquished. Strack contributed nine points to the faculty cause to gainscoring honors for the night. Bill Orwig netted six on three long two-hand- ers, while Smith and Captain Pu- y tich led the students with seven and. six points respectively. FACULTY 7, HAYDEN 1 The faculty water polo team sub- merged residence- hall-a champion Hayden House, 7-1, scoring two quick goals in the first period. John Sharmet and Sam Graham paced the teachers' tank team with two goals each. Hayden's lone tally was racked up by Herbert Sil- verman on a power play late in the initial stanza. PHI DELTS 4, POII SCI 2 Earl Keim's standout perform- ance, supported by Ron Foit's fine play, gave Phi Delta Theta a hard- fought victory over the faculty's Political Science Department, four games to two. After taking the first two games by the close margins of 17-15 and 15-13, the Phi Delta dropped two exciting contests 15-17 and 11-15. The Phi Delts came back to take the last two tilts liandily, 15-8 and 15-13. * . *S ROMANCERS 4, TURKS 2 The Romance Language team, paced by Carlos Soares and Luis Soto-Ruiz, downed a hard fighting Turkish Student team, 4-2, in vol- leyball play. The faculty squad won the in- itial encounter 15-11, dropping the, next two games to the re- surging Turkish team, 15-10 and 17-15. Romance Language came back strong to win the remaining three games 15-8, 15-8, and 15-11. * * * VOLLEYBALL SCORES The teachers scored victories in the other volleyball matches: Bus Ad over Hawaiian Students, 4-3; Psychology over Law Club, 4-0; Education defeated Adams House, 4-1; Engine Mechanics beat the Chinese Students, 4-0; Zoology edged by Nu Sigma Nu, 4-3; Wil- low Run Simulators dropped the Forestry Club, 4-0; and the Phys Ed faculty slipped by the Phys Ed majors, 4-3. The students picked up volley- ball wins with the following vic- tories: Zeta Beta Tau over Mu- seum, 4-3; Pi Lambda Phi stopped 'M' Puckmen Oppose State In Away TiltI (iontest Won't Count in MCHLStandings A rugged weekend is in store for the Wolverine hockey squad when it takes on the Michigan State pucksters tonight and to- morrow night in a home-and- home series. Michigan will travel up to Lan- sing for tonight's tilt, and then both squads will return to Ann Arbor for tomorrow night's game.

By DICK LEWIS Can Illinois roll past Purdue, Northwestern and Wisconsin to its second successive Big Ten basket- ball crown? How many more records will Iowa center Chuck Darling add to the three he has already shat- tered? THESE ARE the big questions on the lips of Midwestern cage fans who are watching one of the tightest races in Western Confer- ence history. And in their minds, the Fight- ing Illini are not yet a shoo-in to conference title laurels. Coach Harry Combes' hoopsters must face three clubs that are mired deep in the second division and have no solace other than upsetting the leaders. * * * TWO OF THE remaining Illi- ois contests are on the road. Tomorrow night the Illini en- counter a high-scoring Purdue five at Lafayette. Illinois has won only one game at Purdue since 1937, and that was last season when the Illini staged one of their best scoring efforts of the year to win, 85-76. Combes will stick with his "six- man" lineup which has recorded 17 victories in 19 outings, and has amassed a scoring average of'71.6, while limiting opponents to a 60.1 output. * * * THIS WELL-BALANCED sextet is composed of center John Kerr (266 points), forward Irv Bem- oras (228 points), guard Rod Fletcher (208 points), center Bob Peterson (206 points), guard Jim Bredar (183 points), and forward Clive Follmer (159 points). The fast-breaking Boilermak- er attack has netted 805 mark- ers in 12 league starts, and is featured by center Carl Mc- Nulty, the number three scorer in the circult. McNulty has tal- lied 245 times for a better-than- 20-point average. Meanwhile, Iowa's flickering title chances have been temporar- ily shoved aside in favor of Darl- ing's ability to regularly smash conference standards. * * * WITH TWO BIG TEN games remaining, the 6-8 pivot operator from Dearborn has already meshed 307markers in league play for a remarkable 25.6 average. In doing so, the Phi Beta Kappa senior bettered the 14- game Western Conference mark of 277 established by Northwes- tern's Ray Ragelis last season and surpassed the 12-game total of 272 set by Hawkeye Murray Weir in 1948. Darling's 113 field goals cracked the 12-game total of 111 by Andy Phillip of Illinois in 1943 and the 14-game aggregate of 97 set by McNulty in 1951. * * * THE LANKY Hawkeye's three- year record of 659 scores snapped the standa;d of 628 turned in by Wisconsin's Don Rehfeldt in 1948- 50. Darling needs only 17 points to break the four-year total .of 675 points which Rehfeldt estab- lished with the inclusion of his freshman competition. Almost certain to fall to Darl- ing is the record average per game of 22.67 points by Weir in The Hawkeyes have chalked up 10 winsain 12 league games this season and they face Northwes- tern (4-8) at Evanston tomorrow night.' Other action finds Minnesota (10-3) at Indiana (7-5), Wiscon- sin (3-8) at Ohio State (5-8), and Michigan (3-9) at Michigan.State (5-7). 7 '1 Wenley House came through with NEITHER CONTEST will count a win over Public Health, 4-3. in the standings of the Midwest- * *ern College Hockey League.

He unquestionably is one of the most perfectly conditioned big men that has ever participated in athletics at Michigan. * * THESE ARE the first impres- sions the casual observer receives upon meeting huge Fritz Nilsson, the Svano, Sweden, import and the latest sensation on the Wol- verine cinder contingent. The 27-year-old Nilsson is the image of the ideal Swede. Blond haired and blue eyed, he towers 6'6" 'and packs 230 pounds over his lean, hard frame. Uinder the guidance of track. mentor DonCanhamand Charlie Ponville, former Michigan great, Nilsson hopes to put his tremend- ous physical powers into record- breaking shot and discus efforts. HIS RESULTS so far in the shot put show a steady improve- ment with each performance. In the Michigan State meet last week big Fritz cut loose with a 54'5 %" toss, by far his best effort, which Red Wings Lose MONTREAL - The hustling Montreal Capadiens came from behind on thid period goals by rookies DickierMooredandPaul Meger last night to defeat the National Hockey League pennant bound Detroit Red Wings, 3-2. rates him big man in the confer- ence in that event. After graduating from the , Swedish equivalent of high school in 1944, Nilsson entered the Swedish Air Force to serve his required one year of mii- tary duty. In 1946 he joined an athletic club and began to throw the shot and discuss steadily. By Olym- pic year, 1948, Nilsson was heav- ing the shot better than 51 feet with consistency, good enough to represent Sweden in the interna- tional games. * * * THE FOLLOWING year Nilsson lr4 Tn m a A o left his native land to take up residence in the United States.4 After spending a year working int Detroit and Cleveland, he enrolled at Michigan in the fall of '50.t A sophomore majoring in phy- sical education, big Fritz finds the University "a pretty tough school." Besides track hopes, Nilsson has two chief aspira- tions: to graduate in '54 and to become a citizen in '55. His current fear is that heT might let down the Swedish peo- ple when he represents them in, this year's Olympics, for they are! expecting big things from their blond giant.

Coach Bessone will probably start an all-frosh first line, made up of John Mayes, team's leading scorer, at center, with Weldon Olson and Gordon King in the forward slots. Dick Lord and Dick Northey will be in at defense, backed up by senior goalie Del Reid.I The Wolverine squad appears to be in good shape for the contests after their two game sweep of McGill 'University last weekend. Coach Heyliger will probably start John McKennell, Early Keyes, and Paul Pelow on the forward line, Jim Haas and Reg Shave at de- fense, and Willard Ikola in the nets. Larry Nelson and Jack Gallon, the two leading Wolverine wrest- lers in the lower weights will not compete against Ohio State to- morrow. Nelson, conference champion at 123 pounds and Gallon, stand-out performer at 137 pounds, both came down with the flu yesterday and will not make the trip to Columbus. THE MAIN CONCERN of Coach Cliff Keen is whether or not the pair will recover sufficiently to appear here in the conference championship meet next Friday and Saturday. Both men had been counted on for important points in this big meet. The loss of Gallon and Nelson is expected to seriously hamper the Wolverine's performance against the rugged Buckeyes, who last year won thq Confer- ence crown and have remained practically intact. A heavy bur- den will be carried by two young freshman grapplers, Joe Atkins and Andy Kaul. Kaul will compete in Gallon's spot and Atkins will appear at the lower weight. Both men have seen limited action this season when both Nelson and Gallonowere kept out by lame knees. Sad to say for their worrying mentor Coach Keen, injuries come in pairs for his mighty mites and most dependable: point-getter. If they don't get back in shape, it will most likely ruin Michigan's opportunity for its first Western Conference Championship in the As One Spot Remains Vacant I1 r 1 NEW YORKa - - Western Kentucky, LaSalle, Louisville and New York University accepted bids yesterday to the National Invita- tion Basketball Tournament be- ginning March 8, leaving only one school to be selected in the 12-, team event. LaSalle and N.Y.U. were nam- ed tonight, after an earlier an- nouncement that the two Ken- tucky clubs had accepted offers to play in the Madison Square Garden event. It was expected that one of the following teams (records in brack- ets) would be chosen by tomorrow for the final open spot: DePaul (18-7), Loyola of Chi- I1 cago (17-7), St. Joseph's of Phil- adelphia (16-5), Texas Christian (20-3), Villanova (17-6) and Miami, Ohio (17-5). Seven teams already had ac- cepted invitations prior to yester-! day. They included three cage outfits ranked among the top 10 in the nation in the last AP week- ly poll-Duquesne, No. 4, St. Louis, No. 5, and St. John's of Brooklyn, No. 9. Also invited were Dayton, No. 11; St. Bonaventure, Nd. 12; Seton Hall, No. 14, and Holy Cross, No. 17. The University of Louisville, ranked No. 13, received special dis- pensation to enter the fold. The N. I. T. had announced previously that four-year men would be bar- red, since the tourney would be played under NCAA rules. Louisville has three four-year players. Western Kentucky is an old tim- er around the N.I.T., having tried five times without success to lift the crown, The Hilltopperswith a 24-4 season mark, were rated No. 18 in the last A? poll.
