FEBRUARY 19, 1953 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE THEM-CIGN-B t PAGE THREW I-M CHATTER . .by Bob M4argolin THERE IS LITTLE DOUBT in our minds that the University of Michigan has one of the finest, if not the finest, intramural pro- grams in the country. A look at the record substantiates this belief: Michigan is the only university in the country with a building designed exclusively for intramural use. The I-M program has more sports, 36 in number, than any other program in the country. And what is more important, participation is the keyword for the average student. Although no records have ever been kept, it is a good bet that almost every male student pays at least one visit to the Sports Building at one time or another during the school year. Another fiield in which the local intramural program excels is in faculty athletics.While sports for the faculty is unheard of on other campuses, it flourishes in Ann Arbor. Faculty leagues share the spotlightalong with fraternity, residence hall, independent and International Center leagues. Professors Teach Another Lesson THE LEARNED ONES seem to go for intramural sports with the same zeal as the undergraduates. Last year Earl Riskey, who is forever introducing new gimmicks in the I-M program, engineered a series of games between the faculty and students. The good profes- sors put aside their lecture notes and blue book schemes long enough to teach their disciples another type of lesson, this time whipping them in 11 out of 20 contests. But the event was such a success socially that brother Riskey is going to try it again Thursday night, this time with an ambi- tious schedule of 51 games on tap. Over 200 students and 20 of their tutors will vie in one basketball game, 16 volleyball tests, two bowling matches, straight rail and three- cushion billiard matches, nine handball games, nine paddleball games, nine squash contests and a water polo scramble. * * * * Basketball To Head Schedule BIG GAME OF THE NIGHT will be basketball. Ted Toper leads a grOup of undergraduates, mostly football players against such not- ables as Dave Strack, Jim Skala, Bill Perigo, Matt Patanelli, J. T. White, Bill Orwig, Don Robinson, Nels Lehsten and Richard Donnelly. Besides Topor, the student squad will be manned by Dick Beison, Dick Strozewski, Bob Hurley, Russ Rescorla, Ray Vander Zyde, Tom Fab- ian, Steve Kovacik and Bill Billings. Last year the faculty struggled to a 29-26 decision in a game that saw 39 personal fouls committed. Water polo should prove to be another good sport, at least from the point of view of the spectator. But the going will be a little rough for the yet-to-be-decided residence hall champs who will have to face a powerful faculty array headed by two very aquatic gentlemen, Professors Bob Hall and Chuck Fries. The elders are a cinch to repeat last year's 7-1 sinking of Hayden House. Top volleyball game on the card is between Education and Sig Ep, faculty and fraternity champs respectively. The Turks, independent titlists, will meet Museum, runners-up in the faculty league. One of the outstanding features of the night's competition is that the opposing players will be introduced to each other before each game; afterwards the losers will treat the winners to coffee in the Union. In other words, another blow will be struck for good fac- ulty-student relations and a good time will be had by all. Pi Lam B Cagers Rout TKEs, 57-12 SOPH PACES 'M' SCORERS: Basketball Runs in Groffsky Family * 4 1 By DICK LEWIS Two decades ago the high scor- ing center for the Long Island Lassies, a barnstorming Eastern girls professional basketball team, was 5-8 Belle Groffsky. Today, two decades later, her 6-4 offspring, Paul Groffsky, tops Michigan's point-getters in the pivot position his mother once oc- cupied. * * *' PLAYING IN his first full sea- son on the Wolverine varsity, the younger Groffsky has poured through 226 points in 16 contests for a 14.1 average. He ranks among the top 15 point-getters in the Western Conference. A few years ago, however, the Maplewood, New Jersey, sopho- more seemed destined for noth- ing more than a reserve role on his home town high school cage squad. Groffsky was good enough to make only the junior varsity in his third year at Maplewood High School, and his first real fling at the hoop sport. DURING HIS senior year, Groff- sky was elevated to ,the varsity and responded with an 11-point average per outing. "At that time I had no good shots," Groffsky recalled, "using only layups and tip-ins to score most of my points." Purely chance brought Groff- * sky to Michigan. "It had a good football reputation and a high- ly-rated literary college-those two were the deciding factors," Groffsky says. He once had foot- ball aspirations, but his grid ca- reer ended at the JV level. Under the tutelage of popular freshman coach Dave Strack, Big Grof developed in his first year at Ann Arbor into a promising bit of talent on the muddled Michigan cage scene. * * '. EVEN EMBATTLED Coach Er- nie McCoy saw the light, throwing Groffsky into action in the last two ball games of the disastrous 1951-52 hardwood campaign. Wearing the Maize and Blue uniform for the first time, the I flashy Richie Regan as his run- ning mutes, Groffsky matured noticeably. His favorite right-handed hook shot and jump shot gained most of their polish over the three month span. *, * * SINCE THEN Groffsky has ex- perienced a meteoric rise into the Wolverine basketball limelight. No less than 12 times he has rattled the cords for double figures. G.roffsky's high-water mark came in Michigan's one-sided win over Purdue, one of two vic- tories chalked up by the Wol- verines in Big Ten competition. That night he converted nine of 15 shots from the floor for a fancy 60 per cent shooting aver- age, and added seven free throws for a 25-point total. Other scoring achievements were an 18-point first half against Iowa at Ann Arbor, and a field goal and free throw with 15 sec- onds left that tied Michigan State, 64-all in the Spartans' last-sec- ond win at Yost Field House.

As a member of Canada's Olym- pic team,Carroll ran 47.4 in the mile relay in Helsinki last year, and he is still now only 22 years old. THOUGH he hasn't reached his peak as a runner yet, Michigan's captain has participated in set- ting several track records. He is a member of the Maize and Blue distance medley relay team which holds both the indoor and outside world records set in 1952. He also ran as one of the 880-yard relay team, which holds the American dirt track record, and with the mile relay team holding the indoor Michigan record. - Individually, Carroll set the outdoor 400-meter run Michi- gan record (two turns) last year with the time of 47.5, and is de- fending Big Ten indoor champ in the quarter-mile. The 440 flash was born in Mon- treal, and now hails from Verdun, a suburb near there. He started running the 880 and mile at Gault Student hockey tickets for tomorrow night's Michigan- North Dakota hockey game go on sale tomorrow morning at 9 a.m. at the Ferry Field ticket office. --Don Weir Institute, a high school in Mon- treal. Carroll soon hit his stride when he changed from the two longer runs to the 440 during his first summer out of high school. * * * CAPTAIN CARROLL probably won more championships than any other man on the team before coming to college, but he says his greatest was winning his first Ca- nadian Junior 440-yard cham- pionship. It was his first big race, and he wasn't expected to place at all against two more experienced countrymen. - During the three years that elapsed between high school and college, Carroll divided his time between working in a bank in Montreal and running for the Montreal Track and Field Club, coached under the expert direc- tion of manager, Glen Cowan. Cowan has coached and pre- pared the way for several young Canadian trackmen. Pupils of his have been: Geoff Dooley, Michi- gan, Jack Alexander of Notre Dame, Ross Green, a freshman at M.S.C., and Gordon Cook, now at Pennsylvania. CARROLL is in business admin- istration, mostly interested in fi- nance, here at the University. He wants to go back to his bank in Montreal to work when he grad- Try Our EXPERT BARBERS For Workmanship, Service, Sanitation Shine Service Also The Baseola Barbers Near Michigan Theatre uates; and has hopes of doing something like his former coach, Cowan. At one time Carroll had a couple of other sidelines in the world of sports. He used to play hockey at high school with teammates who are now on the Michigan Jay-vee team, and he also boxed for six years, between the ages of 10 and 16. He was runner-up in Montreal in the Golden Gloves tournaments twice. In his first year at Michigan, Carroll won the 600-yard run in Cleveland against Gene Cole of Ohio State and Henry Cryer of Illinois. In a Chicago meet he ran second to Mal Whitfield. THE CANADIAN speedster con- tracted glandular fever during the outdoor season of his freshman year and was unable to run. Last year Carroll was unbeaten in indoor inter-collegiate meets, but lost to Mal Whitfield of OSU and George Rhoden from Jamaica on the boards at Boston. He was beaten by Whitfield in Cleveland. During last year's outdoor sea- son, when the team was South in Alabama and Arkansas, Carroll figures that he was running the best he has ever run in his life. He was doing the 440 in about 48 seconds on poor tracks.

Washington BEER 9 WINE SANDWICHES CHICAGO- (W)- The Univer- sity of Minnesota's senate com- mittee on athletics Wednesday voted against renewal of the Big Ten-Pacific Coast Conference Rose Bowl football pact. The recom- mendation will go to the school's faculty committee Thursday for final action. The committee's vote in Min- neapolis indicated that Minnesota will become the first Big Ten school publicly to' go against cur- rent renewal of the Rose Bowl series. * * * WEDNESDAY'S vote is not the university's final stand on the question. v , Illinois on Feb. 2 gave provi- sional approval to the proposed three-year extension of the bowl series which would expire with the 1954 game under the present three-year agreement with the Pacific Coast Conference. The sentiment of all 10 mem- bers will be expressed on a con- ference level at the Big Ten spring meetings May 29-30 at LaFayette, Ind. Minnesota's senate committee on athletics voted against renew- al, 9-3. Two students and one alumnus favored extension. The action was not surprising. J. L. Morrill, Minnesota president, vig- orously opposed signing the orig- inal Rose Bowl pact in 1946 and its first renewal in 1951. Swimming is catalogued as a Big Ten sport when in reality it should be listed as a "Big Two" sport. Michigan and Ohio State have so completely dominated the West- ern Conference natatorial picture that in the last 22 years only one school( Iowa in 1936) has suc- ceeded in breaking the champion- ship monopoly of the Wolverines and Buckeyes. MICHIGAN HOLDS 13 icham- pionships and Ohio State eight in the 22 year period. The Maize and Blue enjoyed a "Golden Age of Swimming" from 1934 through 1941 when they captured eight straight N.C.A.A. crowns. Twice during the eight years the Michi- gan swimmers were nosed out for the conference title, but Matt Mann brought the teams to the correct psychological peak in time to come through in the national meet. Ohio State under Mike Peppe has been the dominant factor in conference natatorial affairs since 1946. The Buckeye swim- mers have' won the Big Ten crown six times in the past seven seasons. The two Western Conference powerhouses havenwaged some great battles in National meets. In 1938 at the Rutgers University Natatorium, Michigan squeezed past the Buckeyes by one point, 46-45, to win national honors. At Ann Arbor in 1939 the Wol- verines posted 45 points to gain the N.C.A.A. laurels, while Ohio State finished right behind with 42 points. The last time Michigan won a national championship, in'1948, the trick was accomplished by out- lasting spirited opposition from Mike Peppe's lads. The score was 47-41 in a closely fought meet that was not decided until the last few events. That was the last N.C.A.A. meet held in the Sports Building pool here in Ann Arbor.

O NCE upon a time, there was a wealthy young college man who spent a million dollars a year on his wardrobe. But the gals all thought he looked "square as an ice cube." One day, while cruising around the campus in his solid gold convertible with leopard-skin tires, he noticed a young fresh- man, surrounded by a bevy of beautiful dolls. Slamming his foot down upon the sterling silver brake pedal, he smoothed out the wrinkles in his custom-tailored suit and strolled over to this popular fellow. "Tell me," he asked, "to what do you owe your great success with the fair sex?" "Naturally," the young Casanova replied, "it's the shirts I wear," He pointed to the pale gray Oxford button-down he had on. "Everyone's bashing ears about Oxford shirts this year ... and I have Oxfords in light blue, gray, yellow, pink, lavender ... and of course, white.
