PAGE THREE a 16 WN F'SDAY, MARCH 17, 1954 THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, MARCH 17, 1954 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE 1M Sportlight . . ..by Dave Livingston W[Q NTER SPORTS will have a last major fling tomorrow night when the intramural department stages its annual "Open House" at the Sports Building. Intramural Director Earl Riskey and his associates have planned a comprehensive program that includes championship contests in basketball, swimming, and volleyball, all-campus tournaments in bad- minton and gymnastics, a residence hall paddleball tourney, six water polo matches, and exhibitions in five other sports. From 6:30, when a whistle will signal the start of the first basketball game, until 10:00 there will be more action packed into the Hoover Street Sports Arena than the average spectator will be able to take in. It wouldn't be difficult to spend the entire evening at the varsity pool. At 7:00 Michigan diving stars Jim Walters, Charlie Bates, Bud Hurd, and Andy White will exhibit their specialty, at 7:30 they will relinquish the pool to the residence halls for their championship swimming meet, and at 9:00 the fraternities will take over with six water polo matches. Exhibitions in boxing, handball, and squash will be going on all evening, as will the dorm paddleball tourney, while demonstrations in boxing will get underway at 7:45 and last 'till things shut down at 10:00 (or until all the participants have been knocked out.) Some of the top net talent on campus will be on hand for doubles matches on the indoor tennis courts at 7:00 and at 7:45. Headlining the tennis program will be Andy Paton former Wolverine captain and Big Ten singles champ, Bob Dixon, the Michigan Open titlist, and Pete Paules and Bob Paley, a couple of Coach Bill Murphy's prize ~ varsity proteges. Cage Champs Named .. . HE OPENING basketball games at 6:30 will match Gomberg and Green for the residence halls "B" title and Sigma Chi and Delta Tau Delta for fraternity laurels. Both Gomberg and Sigma Chi hit the jackpot on the hardwood, for another Gomberg five will oppose Hins- dale for the dorm "A" crown at 9:00 while at 7:45 the Sig Chis will send a second quintet against Phi Delta Theta .for the fraternity "A" championship. At the same time as the Sigma Chi-Phi Delt tilt Fletcher will meet the "Lucky Seven" for the independent title. At 9:00 Delta Sigma Delta and Phi Chi clash for professional fraternity honors. The scene will take on somewhat of an international flavor at 8:30 when a pair of the better local volleyball aggregations, the Turks and the Latvians, meet for the International Center * title. With the stage about set for the onslaught of the spring outdoor sports, it might be well to take a glance at the standings of he var- ious intramural leagues. The totals, however, are not completely ac- curate since several sports are still in the process of completion. Gomberg Paces Dorms .. . GOMBERG is continuing to set the same pace it did last year when it walked off with residence hall all-year honors. The South Quadders have won six of the nine dorm titles already determined to amass a total of 775 points, taking the top spots in outdoor track, touch football, wrestling, handball, relays, and water polo. Close on the heels of the Gomberg athletes are Cooley, with 671 points and a championship in cross-country; Adams, boasting 651 points and the volleyball crown, and Williams with 632 points. Allen-Rumsey (499), Lloyd (483), Reeves (464), Taylor (452),: Strauss (426), and Huber (420), round out the top ten for the dorms. Greene grabbed the only other individual title awarded when it won the dual swimming championship. Phi Delts Roll , .*. PHI DELTA THETA paces the fraternity race with a total of 956 points and a pair of cinder titles-in indoor track and in the re- cently completed relays. The house currently holding the runner-up slot behind the Phi Delts, Delta Tau Delta (881), has yet to win a championship. Third place Sigma Alpha Mu, with 851 all-year mark- ers, won the touch football title and tied with Alpha Tau Omega forI the wrestling laurels. The ATOs and Pi Lambda Phi are knotted at 850 points for fourth and fifth, followed by Lambda Chi Alpha (815), Sigma Chi (805), Sigma Alpha Epsilon (794), and Theta Chi (782). Buried in tenth place with 774 points is Sigma Phi Epsilon, the I-M power1 that has dominated the fraternity competition with all-year cham- pionships in each of the last five years. Newman Club heads the list of entries in the Independent division with 440 points, followed by Standish Evans (385), For- estry (366), MCF (258), Hawaiians (180), Nakamura (155), Flet- I cher Hall and Turks (150), Latvians (130), Nelson House (125). Newman Club, the top Independent outfit for the past three ,X years, copped major honors in both touch football and paddleball, Forestry won the indoor track meet, Standish Evans captured the handball tourney, and the Turks picked up all of their 150 points by winning the Independent volleyball crown THE PROFESSIONAL fraternity division finds, just as in the resi- dence hall and independent leagues, the defending champion con-! tinuing to show its stuff. But in this case last year's winner, Nul Sigma Nu, holds but a slim one point markin over Delta Sigma Delta -606 to 605. The Delta Sigs have won championships in touch foot- ball, bowling, and swimming, as against the leader's single title in handball, but Nu Sigma Nu has placed high consistently to assure its first place notch. The leaders are followed by Phi Alpha Kappa (486), Alpha Kappa Kappa (483), Phi Delta Phi (459), Phi Chi (450), Alpha Kappa Psi (397), Alpha Omega (382), Phi Delta Epsilon (348), and. Tau Epsi- lon Rho (347). JOIN THE RED CROSS CAMPUS CAMPAIGN SPECIA L!

After ATO went into a com- manding 19-13 lead by halftime, the Phi Gams put on a splurge in the opening moments of the sec- ond stanza to even the score at 23 points apiece at the midway point of the period.. THE SCORE remained close, with neither team leading by more than two points until the dying moments of the game. At that point a behind-the-back pass by Carl Kamhout to Randy Bishop sent the ATO team in front by two. It clinched the game sec- onds later when Kelly Taractus sunk a set shot. Bill Booth' led the winners with nine points while Lou Bal- dacci countered eight. Sigma Alpha Mu ran away from Alpha Epsilon Pi in the first half, leading by 24-17 at the end of that period, and held its lead in the latter half to win the third place "A" playoff, 48-32 The Sam- mies seemed able to score when they needed and their close de- fense kept the AEP's from causing any real threat. JOEL TAUBER scored 16 points to pace the winners and teammate Tom Kovan added 13 to the case. Dave Kroll tallied 13 for the los- ers. Triangle won by forfeit over Phi Kappa Sigma for the right to play Theta Delta Chi in the fourth place A playoff final. In B games, Psi Upsilon won the second place playoff from Sigma Alpha Epsilon, 36-29; Alpha Delta Phi defeated Theta Xi in the third place playoff game, 29-26; and Chi Phi downed Phi Sigma Delta, 20- 19, in the fourth place bracket finals. * * * SAE MOVED to a 19-10 halftime lead and held onto it to win, as Dave Kested led the winners with nine points. The third place game provided a somewhat closer contest, as Theta Xi's second half rally came within three points of vic- tory. It was down. 21-8 at the conclusion of the first half. Ray Deny and Bob Durand account- ed for 10 points a piece to pace the winners. Chi Phi capitalized on Phi Sig- ma Delta's inability to score as it held on to a 12-10 halftime lead to squeak out a 20-19 win. The winners' John Rapson, who led the victors with 10 points, scored the winning field goal with less than a minute and a half remain- ing. The losers had repeated shots in the final minute, but failed to score. Volleyball games saw Psycholo- gy B down Willow Run Research Center, 5-1; Museum defeat Social Research, 6-0; and Air Force ROTC tie Minerology, 3-3. X110 DROPS GYMNASTS TO THIRD: Wrist Injury Costs 'M1' Possible Title h 4 1 I Y MILT MEAD . trades cage suit for track togs 'Mead To Get Season's Initial Track Test in Cleveland Meet By DON LINDMAN The loss of one man tore to shreds the championship hopes of Michigan coach Newt Loken and his Gymnastics squad. An injury to captain Marv John- son dropped the Wolverines from the position of a definite challeng- er for the Big Ten crown to a pre- carious third place finish in the conference meet held at Colum- bus, Ohio, last weekend. * * * WITH THE threat from Michi- gan gone, Illinois' favored defend- ing champions turned the Satur- day afternoon finals into a rout, finishing more than 50 points ahead of runner-up Minnesota. The late season wrist injury suffered by Johnson cost the Wolverines more than 20 points, according to Loken, more than enough to boost the Maize and Blue squad into second place. As things turned out, the injury nearly dropped the Wolverines in- to fourth place behind Michigan State. Loken's men edged the Spartans, 71.5-71, and Johnson played a big part in getting the slim Michigan margin. WORKING IN Friday's prelim- inaries in spite of leis obviously painful wrist, Johnson aggrevated the injury so that he was unable to put in more than a token ap- pearance on Saturday. To avoid being scratched from the finals, the Windsor, Ontario, senior performed one simple routine in the free exercise and side horse without using the bad wrist and gained one point in each event. Without this effort, the Wolverines would have fin- ished no better than fourth. As was expected, Illini stars Frank Bare, Jeff Austin, and Tomi Gardner, and Michigan State's great gymnast, Carl Rintz, were Al men interested in officiat- ing intramural softball please meet at the Sports Building this Friday at 5:00 p.m. Bob Ostrander the individual stars of the meet. Rintz, one of the outstanding col- legiate gymnasts in the nation, walked off with the all-around title for the second consecutive year, winning two events and tak- ing the runner-up spot in two others. * * s LEE KRUMBHOLZ was the top Wolverine gymnast. during the two-day meet. The slender senior contributed 25 points to the Maize and Blue cause. While the Wolverine team fin- ish was disappointing but seem- ingly unavoidable, the meet pointed out several bright spots in Michigan's gymnastics future. Loken's men showed up excep- tionally well on the trampoline, one of the weaker events throughout the season. The Wolverines placed three men in the trampoline finals. Bill Winkler and Frank Adams were both participating in their second conference meet, while sophomore Jack Burchfield reached the finals in his initial attempt. Also encouraging was the per- formance of Tony San Antonio. While improving steadily during the regular season, the first se- mester sophomore proved t be very erratic. His performance in the Big Ten meet was anything but erratic, however, as he placed sixth in the side horse and eighth in the parallel bars after only one semesterof Western Conference competition. Milt Mead has made his annual spring change-over. The Michigan senior has shed his varsity bsketball uniform in favor of the track suit that saw him win the NCAA high jump ti- tle last spring. * * * THIS WEEKEND he will return to the scene of his initial triumph in the collegiate hign jump pits when he joins a small band of Wolverines in the annual Knights of Columbus meet at Cleveland Friday night. Two years ago Mead set a new record for the affair when he leaped 6' 6 11/16" after only a+ couple of weeks practice.1 This year, however, with even less practice behind him he isn't: accorded much of a chance to up- set his long time adversary Ron Mitchell of Illinois. * * THE WOLVERINE mle relay team of Pete Sutton, Bob Brown, Jack Carroll, and Grant Scruggs will also be up against a couple of old foes in the Cleveland games.+ Coach Don Canham's prize quartet will face both Illinois New lee Code For Eligibility OK'd by WHL Beginning with the 1955 season,1 one year of residence at a mem- ber school is required before a hockey player will be eligible to compete in the Western Intercol- legiate Ice Hockey League. At a meeting of faculty repre- sentatives at the Broadmoor Ho- tel in Colorado Springs last week- end, this motion was passed in order to ease the pressure of com- plaints from Eastern schools which I have such a requirement. A motion was also passed which limits the number of games each team can play throughout the season to 24, ex- clusive of games during the Christmas vacation. A new schedule provision for the coming year was passed which states that each of the seven; teams in the WHL must play at least three four game series, and must meet the other three teams at least twice during the cam- paign. 1953 Irs and Indiana, each of whom has dealth the Wolverine team a bit-1 ter defeat within the last few# weeks. In a dual meet the Illini four-1 some nipped Michigan by inches to snare a last-ditch victory, while just two weeks ago the Indiana team won by an equally narrow margin to edge the Maize and Blue for the runner-up spot in thet Big Ten Championships.t The Wolverine two-mile relay 1 team of Roy Christiarsen, John Moule, John Ross, and Pete Gray will be up against just as tough competition in Fordham, Pitts- burgh, and Michigan State. THREE MEN not eligible for varsity competition will round out Michigan's contribution to the meet-freshman Laird Sloan in the 600, transfer student Bob Jones in the 1000, and former Wolverine star Van Bruner in the high hurdles. The local tracksters began their off-season jaunt last weekend in the Milwaukee Relays without tooE much luck. The mile relay team was dis- qualified for a foul while the two mile team finished third. An en- couraging sign was added, though, when sophomore Ron Wallingford turned in a 9:20.2 two mile, 14 seconds better than he's ever run before, to finish fourth in that event.
