SATURDAY, MARCH 1, 1952 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Wrestlers, Hoopsters in Action Today Wolverine Matmen Battle Ohio State at Columbus _ By HERB COHEN With two regulars out of the lineup due to illness, the Michi- gan wrestling team journeys to Columbus today to face a strong Ohio State squad in the last dual meet of the'season. Both Larry Nelson, Conference champion at 123 pounds, and 137 pounder Jack Gallon will be forced to miss the trip due to sickness. NEVERTHELESS, the Wolver- ine lineup should not be too weak- ened for Coach Cliff Keen has able substitutes in Joe Atkins at 123 pounds and Andy Kaul at 137 pounds. The meet is the final test of the season for the Wolverines who up to now have won five, lost two and-tied one. The Buck- eyes although they have been having their troubles this sea- son, and have not quite the won- lost percentage of Michigan, still will provide some sturdy opposition for Cliff Keen's charges. Last year when the two teams collided, sparks really let loose in probably one of the most exciting matches to be held in Yost Field House. The final score was 12-12, and both teams went away hap- py, still carrying the undefeated records with which they went into the match. The Buckeyes are headed by five returnees from last year's team: Fred McLean at 167 pounds, and Ronald Lax, Buckeye 147 pounder, both finished second in the Big Ten last year.

That was al for the Spartans. After Pelow made it 6-2 Michi- gan, Mullen turned the 'hat trick" at 12:49. He then got his fourth goal just fourteen see- onds later. The 22 year old Mullen, a recent father of a baby girl, is the sixth Wolverine to score the "hat trick" this year.

He is national outdoor AAU champion in the individual medley with a time of 1:52.2. In his first appearance as a member of the varsity last Decem- ber 16th, ,he broke the state AAU and Michigan pool record for the 440 yard free style with a mark of 4:41.4.

Two Iowa victories would give the Hawkeyes a final 12-2 rec- ord and put the pressure on the Illini closing at Wisconsin five days after the rest of the con- ference has finished.

The Wolverine mentor further adds, "'Bumpy' is concentrating on the individual medley, but he's willing to swim the back stroke or any of the free style events from 50 yards to a guarter mile. He is the kind of athlete a coach has to hold in, rather than push."

PRE-SEASON favorites for the N.C.A.A. team championship, the Spartans possess an unblemished competitive record so far this sea- son. Included among State's victories is a 53-43 defeat of Illinois, defending Conference champs, who earlier this season leveled Michi- gan by the score of 62%-321/. Pacing the MSC attack will be Olympic hopefuls Bob Fel- deimer and Carl Rintz. Captain Feldeimer, one of the top gym- nasts in collegiate ranks, placed third in the all-round conference competition and ninth in the National AAU championships last year. * * * * COACH NEWT LOKEN'S charges, led by freshman Harry Luchs will be strongest in parallel bars and tumbling events.

OLYMPIC PROSPECT HERE: Michigan Track Squad To Meet OSU A CONTINUOUS FROM 1 P.M. * 44c WEEKDAYS TO 5 P.M. X5 6Starts Today! ilAN INVITATION TO LOVE- il rowe AA A 4 By ED SMITH With an eye on next week's Big Ten Championship at Cham- paign, the Wolverine thinclads will take on the Buckeyes of Ohio State at Yost Fieldhouse tonight. No longer the power that they once were, the Buckeyes have been weakened for the indoor season by the loss of middle distance runner Len Truex. TRAVELING with the Buckeye squad is Otis Chandler, American Olympic prospect in the shot put. Chandler, late of Stanford, is cur- rently stationed at an Air Force base near Columbus, and will take part in an, exhibition contest with Roland Nilsson, Michigan's gigan- tic Swede. Chandler is capable of hurling the shot over 57 feet. Though Chandler's heaves will not count in meet competi- tion, the Buckeyes have another fine shot putter in the person of Joe Morgan. Morgan, a rarity among shot putters, throws the shot left handed. Two weeks ago at the Michigan State relays he finished second, close behind Nilsson. Tonight will be Captain Don McEwen's farewell appearance in Yost Fieldhouse, and he will close out his indoor career as a Wol- verine at Champaign next week. This evening McEwen will run in onlyhis specialty, the two mile. MOST LIKELY the closest race will be the 440. Here Ohio State's Gene Cole will be pitted against Michigan's Jack Carroll and Bill Konrad. Cole's outstand- ing performance was a 48 flat quarter which he turned in while still in high school. The Buckeyes have fine per- formers in two other events. In the high jump Peron Dubard, a freshman, will match his height with the Wolverines' Beb$Evans and Howard Liverance. In the Milwaukee Journal Meet Du- board cleared the bar at 6 feet 6 inches, a height that neither Wolverine has yet approached. - Another good Ohio State bet is the pole vault. State's Jerry Welbaurn has cleared better than fourteen feet, while thirteen feet is the ceiling of the Maize and Blue vaulters.
