BURR PATTERSON & AULD 11 FRATERNITY JEWELERS 1209 SOUTH UNIVERSITY AVENUE LEE KRUMBHOLZ . . . outstanding senior Illini, Indiana Contend for Cage Crown By WARREN WERTHEIMER It's Illinois' cagers at Indiana this Saturday night with the out- come determining whether one or three teams will capture the Big Ten basketball title. The Hoosiers maintained their hold on first place over the week- end but both the Illini and Iowa crept a half game closer. The sit- uation is now this: Indiana has won 11 of its 13 Western Confer- ence games, the Hawkeyes have completed their schedule and have lost one more than the leaders, while Illinois is a full game out with a 10-3 mark.- * * * . SHOULD THE Hoosiers defeat the team from Champaign, they will take the Big Ten crown and the NCAA berth that goes along with it. However, an Illini victory would cause a three-way deadlock and most likely result in a vote to decide the NCAA participant. The Bloomington five won Its only weekend encounter, routing Ohio State at Columbus, 84-68. Don Schlundt, the league's lead- ing scorer with 354 points, tal- lied 27 of them Saturday, while sophomore Wally Choice con- tributed 20 as the Hoosiers cinched a tie for the conference title. Iowa stayed in contention by taking a pair of games. The Hawk- eyes moved into East Lansing Sat- urday and outscored Michigan BIG TEN STANDINGS W L Pet.

Two days later Iowa City quintet toppled OSU on the1 former's home court, 84-71. THE THIRD-PLACE Illinois cagers also were successful in both of their weekend tussles, although not before they had a couple of scares. The Illini were unable to break away from Michigan until the final quarter on Saturday night. However John Kerr started to find the range in the final ten minutes and Harry Combes' five won going away, 79-61. Monday, Illinois came from 15 points down to edge Northwest- ern, 84-82. Kerr tossed in 32 tal- lies and is in second place in the conference scoring race with 342 markers. In other games, Wisconsin lost to Purdue Saturday, 71-66, before trouncing Michigan State 79-56 two days later. Minnesota, led by Dick Garmaker's 32-point splurge, beat Northwestern, 81-69. The HAIR STYLING of the future is here NOW! 6 EXPERTS TO SERVE YOU 715 N. University Gym Squad E TonightinFi By DAVE BAAD Michigan's gymnastics team, boasting three straight victories after some rather shaky early sea- son performances, faces Michigan State tonight in its last home dual meet of the season. The match starting at 7:30 p.m.1 will be held in the large gym of the Intramural Building. UNDEFEATED in home compe- tition this year, the Wolverines are expecting their toughest opposition since early February when the squad dropped a 55-41 decision at Illinois. Coach Newt Loken, who has seen his team breeze to rather one-sided triumphs over Minne- sota, Ohio State and Northwest- ern during the past three weeks predicts a 49-47 score with the verdict going either direction de-7 pending on which squad picks up' the breaks. The main reason for Michigan'st fear of the Spartans is their sen- sational star Charlton Rintz, who finished second in all-around per- formance last season in the NCAA tournament. THE MUSCULAR star is an al- most certain first place winner in, all the apparatus events and inj Michigan State's recent 49-47 vic- tory over Minnesota he grabbed four wins with no scores under 269 points. He amassed a 281 total on the side horse and a 280 on the high bar. Although the Spartans don'tj have too much depth behind l Rentz, Bob Cunning and Ken Cook can be counted upon for import- ant place points. Cunning, who meet and last Saturday Captain Mary Johnson only competed in one event due to a bad wrist. Johnson's wrist is sufficient- ly healed to stand the rigors of full time action tonight but his timing will possibly be off due to the inactivity accompanying the injury. Along with Johnson, seniors Lee Krumbholz, Dick Bergman and Wes Wenrich will be performing in the last home meet of their careers. KRUMBHOLZ, who got off to a slow start this season has been outstanding in the last two dual meets. Last Saturday he picked up 26 /2 points against Northwestern, only four less than the whole Wild- cat team scored. The slim all-around star won four events and garnered a third in another.

BILL STONE Ten swimming finals' this week in Ann Ar- 5, and 6th of March, together the greatest freestyle stars ever to THE 50-YARD and 100-yard sprints will be featured by return engagements between Ohio's Dick Cleveland and Michigan's Don i Hill. Last Saturday Cleveland nosed out Hill by a hair three times in the dual meet between the OSU and Wolverine swimming squads and the Michigan ace is determined to gain back some of his lost glory against the record- breaking Hawaiian. Al Kuhn, captain of the Northwestern Wildcats; who fin- ished fourth in the 50-yard crawl in the 1953 conference meet, will be a significant figure in the sprints, along with the dependable Tom Whiteleather of Ohio State. Co-captain Tom Benner, Olym- pian Ron Gora, and the fast-im- proving Bobby Knox may get calls from Coach Matt Mann in the short distance events for Michi- gan. Illinois' Nick Karpincheck, Michigan State's Tom Payette and Chuck Baldwin, and Dick Pen- nington of Iowa will all be scrap- ping for berths among the con- ference elite. THE MIDDLE and long distance events are led by the incompar- able Ford Konno of Ohio State. Konno broke two records last- weekend as the Buckeyes were trimming Michigan at Columbus. The flashy Olympic star chalked "BUMPY" JONES . . . defending titlist ILLINOIS CHALLENGED- Four Teams Highlight Big Ten Track Meet up a new world record in the 220- yard freestyle event with a time of 2:04.7, and set a new collegiate mark in the 440 when he churned the distance in 4:29.4. Konno is also the defending Big Ten 1500- meter champion. . Maize and Blue fans are hop- ing that Bumpy Jones, 1953 winner of the Big Ten 220 crown, can repeat his last sea- son's triumph over Konno, al- though the way the little speed- ster from Columbus is moving lately this will be a difficult task to accomplish.

John O'Reilly and Ron Gora may swim in the middle or long distance fea- tures for the Wolverines. ROSS LUCAS of Iowa and Dick Talbot of Purduewere both final- ists in the 1953 conference cham- pionships in the 1500-meter and 220-yard respectively, and each man figures to be around for the finals this year. Michigan State's Jack Beattie will be the chief hope of the Lansing fans in the distance events. Michigan, despite its setback to Ohio State last Saturday still must be given the nod as favor- ite in the 400-yard freestyle re- lay. Coach Matt Mann is not sure of the combination that he will enter to defend the Wolver- ine's Big Ten relay title, but one thing is certain and that is that co-captain Hill will oppose Cleveland as the anchor man of the Wolverine quartet. Michigan State, Wisconsin, and Purdue seem to measure closest to the quality of the Michigan and Ohio State foursomes. The freestyle events, because of their point value will be the most influ- ential of any group of races in de- termining who will emerge as the 1954 Big Ten Conference swim- ming champion Saturday night.
