THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE I MSPORTS TRAIL .By Gene Mackevich M' Puckste rs Seek Fi fteenth Win' i INTRAMURAL DIRECTOR, Earl Riskey, recently came up with a new interest-arousing idea, and, from all indications, it looks as though it may be on its way to becoming another successful IM acti- vity. Thursday, Feb. 28th, has been set aside as Faculty-Student night." Competition in eight athletic events between faculty and student teams will highlight the evening's activities. Approximately 200 per- sons will represent each squad, The eight activities include volleyball, basketball, squash, hand- ball, bowling, billiards, paddleball, and ever dangerous water polo. All contests wil be open to the general public, and a list of all starting times will appear in The Daily early next week. Twelve volleyball matches are on schedule. Many students will be playing against their instructors when Romance Language meets the Turks, the Physical Education teachers engage the phys. ed. students, and Zoology plays Nu Sigma Nu, the medical fraternity. Other contests pit Education against Adams House, Chemistry will battle the Hawaiian3s, Psychology requested the Law Club, and the two Willow Run teams, the Rockets and Simulators, take on Pi Lambda 'Phi and the Foresters, respectively. Political Science encounters Phi Delta Theta, Engineering Me- chanics face the Chinese, Public Health meets Wenley House, and Museum plays against Zeta Beta Tau.

A fine selection of faculty and student cage talent promises 4 to result in a well played contest. Captain of the student five is Bill Putich. Other members of the squad include John Fortenberry, Howie Maturen, Frank Putich, Bob Fleming, Joe Cassis, Russ Smith, and Don Peterson. Assistant basketball coach Dave Strack will captain the facul- ty team. Bill Orwig, varsity end coach, and J. T. White, J-V bas- ketball mentor will give the instructors ample height. Nels Lehsten, University High Athletic Director, will also play. The squad is rounded out by Rod Granbeau, assistant IM director, Don Robinson, J-V football coach, Elmer Swanson, assistant track mentor, and Rich Donnelly of the phys. ed. department. Squash, handball, paddleball, billiards, and bowling all have their captains chosen, and are now going through a stage of organization. Bowling will consist of four teams, each of which will have five members. The faculty captains are E. D. Mitchell and golf coach Bert Katzenmeyer. Jay O'Keefe and Dick Smith are the two student cap- tains. Word has it that O'Keefe has maintained a 190 average while bowling in his league at the Union. Either Williams or Hayden House will meet Wenley in the residence hall finals of water polo. The champion will face a fa- culty team organized by captain Chuck Fries. This is one sport that you really have to know what you're doing, because, as those of you, who have played it know, ANYTHING GOES. If all goes well next Thursday night, Mr. Riskey plans to have a similar activity in the spring. At that time softball, golf, horseshoes, and tennis would be featured. Frank Putich and Bob Fleming recently teamed up to win the all-campus doubles championship. They defeated Len Pearlman and.. Bill Reiger two straight games: 21-15 and 21-11. Four Schools Compete in Handball THIS SATURDAY four handball teams from the state of Michi- A gan will compete on the IM courts. Two singles and one doubles team will represent Michigan State, the University of Michigan, Detroit, and Wayne University. Semi-final matches are scheduled for the morning, while finals will be played that afternoon. Bill Riekel and Bob Spatz will play 1-2 singles for Michigan, while Nonn Weinstock and Frank Wollowitz will team up for doubles competition. Last night at 7:30 residence halls, independents, and social fra- ternities were timed in the quarter mile relay at Yost Field House. The teams with the four best times in the fraternities and the four best in the residence halls will take part in the IM division of the Michigan-Ohio State track meet to be held March 1. Last year the winners in the respective divisions were Kappa Sigma, Williams House, and the Newman Club. That's about all the news from IM headquarters for the week. Be- fore closing, one final reminder: Faculty-Student night should turn out to be an enjoyable evening for all concerned. So why not come out . and see some of your profs and instructors compete with your fellow- students? We all may be a little surprised to discover that some of the aging teachers might be able to handle students, both in and out of the classrooms ... . By HERB COHEN At every Michigan wrestling meet this year, hoots and howls for Moose Dunne have become the favorite cheer of Wolverine fans. Dunne, one of the most popular grapplers to hit the Michigan scene in many a year, takes it. all, in his stride and still goes onto the mats determined not neces- sarily to give a good show, but to win. * * * AND WHAT'S' more, of late he has been winning! ! Dunne has come along this year under the expert tutelage of Coach Cliff Keen and Assistant Coach All those interested in one of the following all-campus tour- naments, please send your en- r tries to the IM building imme- diately.

But everything wasn't always this well with the 215 pounder from Winnetka, Illinois. Dunne comes from a long line of Michigan graduates; and all of them played varsity football. So it is, that when Art came to the University he would have liked nothing better than to play the fall sport. But tradition was to be broken. Moose did not have the natural co-ordination, it appeared, to be a sucess on the Michigan football team. And so he decided to go out for wrestling. * * * because down deep they could see the potential of a successful heavyweight wrestler. Not until this year has the po- tential been reached. Dunne started off his varsity career by grappling in two varsity matches in his sophomore year. He lost them both, one of them by a pin to Bill Miller, Ohio 'State's former national champion heavy-; weight wrestler. * * * THAT WAS the 1949-50 season, end for his efforts Dunne was awarded a reserve letter. Last season Keen expected great things from the Wolverine mammoth. But even though great improvement was noted, he still did not reach his apex. He ended up the year with a record of three wins, four losses, aql three ties. This year Dunne has developed to such a point that he has won more matches thisyear, four, than he won in the previous two years combined. But if you ask Cliff Keen, he's sure that the best is yet to come. "The Big Ten meet," he says, "will show 'em just how good Moose really is."

NIL Rules To Be Enforced In Two-Tilt Redmen Series The Michigan pucksters take on their third Canadian foe of the season when they face the Redmen of McGill tonight and tomorrow at 8 p.m. in the Coli- seum.

He was brand new to the game, and the nickname of 'Moose' seemed very appropriate indeed. Keen and Betzig worked very hard with the young :sophomore "The Redmen play rough, hard-hitting hockey, which is colorful from the fan's view- point. They play their best games on the road. The team improves with every game, and should provide the Wolverines with a good battle." This is primarily a building year for the Redmen, under their new coach, Rocky Robillard. De- fensively, the squad is sound, boasting two veteran goalies, Bob MacLellan and John Wright. At forward, Albert Schultz, leading McGill scorer, teams with William Duke and Pete McElheron for the first line. The latter is probably the most improved player on the squad- a swift skater with a lot of " drive. Another forward who will see action is Dick Irvin, Jr., son of Dick Irvin, coach of the NUIL. Montreal Canadiens h THE MICHIGAN squad is gen- erally in good shape, except for Doug Philpott, who will miss the series. Philpott, second line cen- ter, is in Health Service with a bad cold. Wolverine Mentor Vie Hey- liger says Telly Mascarin, Wind- sor freshman, will dress in place of Philpott. Paul Pelow is slated to take over at center between John McKennell and Eddie May to complete the sec- ond line. Heyliger will probably start Earl Keyes, George Chin, and Pat Cooney as forwards, with Reg Shave and Jim Haas on defense in front of goalie Willard Ikola.

T h e handsome, 22-year-old Harvard University senior from Englewood, N.J., completed his skating contest with a spectacu- lar series of improvised whirls and jumps that brought repeated rounds of applause from the small crowd of 5,000 at Bislett Stadium. * * * THE UNITED STATES has ac- cumulated a total of 731%2 points and further cut into Norway's commanding lead for unofficial team honors. The Norwegians held first with 101. Austria follows second place U.S. with 56, and Finland is fourth with 41. Button's triumph brought a bright glow to a day otherwise marred by defeat and near 'tragedy for American forces. The U.S. hockey team, rated' with Canada as a favorite for the championship, suffered its first setback of the round robin tour- nament-a 4-2 loss to Sweden's European champions. By DICK LEWIS A whole season of Big Ten com- petition will be packed into one basketball game tomorrow night. Statistically-favored Iowa, which has taken nine out of ten con- ference. tests, meets defending champion Illinois, holder of an identical record against confer- ence foes. * * * THE HAWKEYES defeated Il-i linois, 73-68, earlier this season at Iowa City, but they don't figure to have such an easy time of it on. the Champaign hardwood. Coach Bucky O'Connor's tall Iowans must overcome a visi- tor's jinx that has limited the corn staters to one victory in 19 games on the Huff gymna- sium court since 1928. A strong point in the Hawk- eyes' favor is six-foot-eight-inch center Chuck Darling, who is headed toward one of the most remarkable records in cage his- tory. * * * coming in conference play. He is almost certain in the four remain - ing Iowa contests to crack the Western Conference record of 277 points for 14 games, set by Ray Ragelis of Northwestern last year.

Top point-setter for the home forces is sophomore center John Kerr who has hit for 129 Big Ten tallies. Kerr is backed up by Clive Follmer and Irv Bemoras at the forwards and Rod Fletcher and Jim Bredar at the guards. Bob Peterson, a 6-7 big boy with 94 points to his credit, spells Kerr at the pivot position. I I- .rq!idn; i s Variety 'tiow P) Tomorrow Night !
