His 21 field goals made a total of 330 this season, 15 more than the 315 previous record by Clyde Lovelette of Kansas State. And his career field goal total of 825, in less than three seasons, surpassed the 808 record that it took Chet Giermak four years to set at William'and Mary.

DON EADDY' ... tough to escape Wolverine Hoopsters Fail To Realize Early Potential Dukes Move Into Top Spo In Cage Poll By The Associated Press Unbeaten Duquesne moved into the top spot in the Associated Press basketball poll this week, dropping an also unbeaten Ken- tucky squad, last week's leader, into second place in the nation- wide ratings.. The Dukes seemingly gained first place on the added backing, of former Indiana and Oklahoma A&M supporters. The Hoosiers and Aggies both absorbed their second defeat of the season during the past week. The leaders for this week: 1. Duquesnes (20-0)............14 2. Kentucky (19-0)..............761 3.

Iowa (14-3) ....................205 By WARREN WERTHEIMER From a potential first division contender to a team that is on the verge of falling into the cel- lar; that has been the story of Michigan's cagers during the 1953-54 season. According to Coach Bill Perigo, and those who saw the Wolverines' early season play will agree, "We stood an excellent chance of being one of the top five teams in the. Big Ten this year." NOW THE Maize and Blue, with a two won, seven lost Conference record is but one game in front of cellar dwelling Purdue. Last night's loss also marked the first time this campaign that Perigo's quintet dropped below the .5001 mark, its record now being eight victories in 17 contests. What is the reason for the demise of Michigan basketball fortunes during the season? Actually there are many ex- planations, but a' few seem to - be of primary importance. "We have not done a real good rebounding job since the Indiana game." This statement by Perigo goes a long way toward explain- ing why the Wolverines have been coming out on the short end of the score lately. * * * THE ANN ARBOR five has been consistently outscrapped and out- fought underneath the backboards, even by smaller teams. Last Sat- urday's encounter with Ohio State was a good example. The Buckeyes, with 6-4 Paul Ebert their biggest man, not only outrebounded Michigan, but scored many of their 97 tallies on tipins and follow-up shots. It is rather evident that a team, that does not have the ball can- not score and the Maize and Blue is constantly outshot, sometimes by as many as 20 or 25 a game. MICHIGAN'S defense has not exactly been the best, especially when it comes to stopping oppos- ing pivot men. Wolverine Big Ten opponents have averaged 79.9 points a game and Conference centers have tossed in almost thirty, yes 30 markers per contest. These are things that you can point your finger at. However there are certain "intangibles" that also should be considered. Perigo believes that, "Some- where along the way the boys lost i the confidence they had at the beginning of the season and it has greatly affected their play. No longer do they feel that they are the better team." "SURPRISINGLY enough, the team's spirit is still good, and per- haps all it will take to get the team rolling again would be a vic- tory this weekend, a pretty rough assignment however." Of Michigan's regulars, only Jim Barron and Don Eaddy are having very good years, while Harvey Williams is steadily but slowly improving. "Eaddy," according to some members of the team, "is 100 per- cent better than he was last year." The 5-11 junior has not been in the spotlight as much as some of the other Wolverines, but he has been doing a consistently good job. Eaddy's defensive work has been oustanding to the point where he is one of the best in the Confer- ence. The Wildcats' high scoring Frank Ehmann paid him quite a tribute after Monday's game when he said, "He (Eaddy) is the tough- est guard I've run up against this season."

You'd pass him on the quadrangle and say "How's it goin', Flash?" He'd answer, "Air Express." Get the pitch? Brown often referred to his "two-headed brother" in conversations. One day a few men in his fraternity were needling him. "Your brother's two heads must present quite a few problems." "Not really. The only problem was his neatness," said Flash, "Neatness?" "Yes," answered Flash, "he worried about it. Said he couldn't find a shirt that didn't wrinkle around the collar. You see, he was often looking in two directions at once, or eating and talking on the telephone. Hard on a collar." "What did you do?" They knew he did something about it. "Simple. I got him the Van Heusen Century shirt with the exclusive soft collar that won't wrinkleever! I got him different collar styles and colors. $3.95 for the white, $4.95 for the colors and superfine whites. You should have seen the grins on his faces when he saw how those collars stayed neat all day and night without starch or stays." "I guess he can really hold his heads up now," said one. "Yep. He figures he gets four times more wear from Century than from other shirts. Of course, he actually only gets twice the wear. He just figures in both heads." One of the men visited Brown at Christmas, and found it was all true.

Straight-laced in his loud-mouthed way, Molinas maintained that he had done nothing wrong - it came natural so to speak. THE long-limbed fellow from the Bronx, New York had been a good friend and admirer of most of the brilliant hoop stars picked up. in the original bribe scandal that hit most of the Metropolitan At tennis shops and sporting goods stores .o i hell Representatives will visit the University of Michigan r---as follows--------- I I Shell Chemical Corporation I Feb. 23-24 (Chemical Plants) Shell Oil Company-Manufac* Feb. 23-24 turing (Refining)I I I Shell Oil Company-Production j Feb. 23-24 Department (Oil Field Pro. duction) [ I FOR INTERVIEWS WITH STUDENTS j RECEIVING DEGREES IN THE FOLLOWING FIELDS - I-Chemistry--Chemical, Civil, Electrical, Mechanical, Metallurgical Engineering, and Naval Architecture. 1 Chemists, Please See Dr. L. C. Anderson, and Engineers see Miss Post in Dean Brown's Office for Appointments 1 and Further Details., New York schools and many other leading teams the nation over. Still, Molinas argued, he didn't commit the same sins that his bretheren did-he had not shaved points, he had bet on Fort Wayne to win. Such loyalty he felt should be rewarded. Unfortunately the NBA Presi- dent, Maurice Poloff and the offi- cials of the Pistons didn't agree with his reasoning, and he prompt- ly was dropped from the pro ranks. So Jack went back to his friends. WHILE a star center for Peter Stuyvesant High School in Man- hattan, Molinas played for several "outside" pickup teams in various' and sundry exhibition games. His' favorite playmates were the boys on the Hacken A.C. team-and his idol of that assortment of cage performers- was one Jack Byrnes. Byrnes was at that time one of the featured performers on the Manhattan College court squad-and a couple of seasons later, he hit the national lime- light. But Byrnes, a basketball player with great natural abili- ty and promise didn't take the1 spotlight in the way that Frank Selvy and Don Schlundt have -in this present campaign. Instead Byrnes was the first pebble in what turned out to be an avalanche-Byrnes and team- mate Hank Poppe were the two men pin-pointed when Junius Kellogg reported he had been of- fered a bribe to shave points. The Manhattan blot quickly spread to CONY, LIU, Kentucky, Dayton, and Bradley to mention a promi- nent few. Molinas was sad when his old friend Byrnes, and his high school pals Ed Roman, Ed Warner, Floyd Lane and Al Roth were dropped from the college sport-but he had worries of his own before long. Mo- linas had enrolled at Columbia University after matching its scholarship offers against numer- ous others and proceeded to deci- mate the Lion's hoop scoring standards erected by Walt Budko and Alan Stein. But Jack was a frisky youth, andbefore long he drew a part season suspension for tossing an alcoholic receptacle through a dorm window and onto the top of a professor's car. This did not faze him. Instead he improved constantly and became an Ivy League per- former excelled only by the great Ernie Beck of Pennsylvania. * * * A HANDSOME offer on the part of Fort Wayne sold him on a hoop career, together with part-time bartending in his fathers bistro. His penchant for extra money caught him though, and Molinas was forced to turn to full-time bartending - rather a disap- pointing career for a product of the hallowed halls on Morning- side Heights. As an after-thought we were wondering if some of the debuach- ed basketball greats would ever band together to form a regularly scheduled barnstorming semni-pro. team. Sherman White, Leroy Smith, Warner, Roman, Roth and Lane together with assorted others have made some exhibition ap- pearances since their suspension- but a real team Globetrotter-style is yet to appear THE ONLY trouble is that our Molinas would be left out in the cold-poor Jack, a budding star in the National League would have trouble making the second string. I O LLE TT ' What with Alex Groza, Ralph Beard, Bob Spivey, Gene Melch- iorre, Wah-Wah Jones-added to the Smith-Warner-Layne-Roman- Byrnes nucleus, they would form a pretty fair team.

In another case a customer wanted to reduce carbon contamination of are welding rod stock. A Du Pont technical service man suggested changes in cleaning procedures that lowered contamination by 90 per cent. The new process also reduced metal loss during heat treatment-a benefit that more than offset the cost of the additional cleaning operations. Technical men interested in sales work usually start in a laboratory or manufacturing plant where they can acquire needed background. Depend- ing on their interest and abilities, they may then move into technical sales service, sales development, or direct sales. In any of these fields, the man with the right combination of sales aptitude and technical knowledge will find interesting work, and excep- tional opportunities for growth in the Du Pont Company. ' i A major in glibness and a minor in solid information-those were, the mythical requirements for a sales- man in the old days. But they really never sufficed for a man selling the products of chemical technology. Today, the diverse applications of Du Pont's 1200 products and prod- uct lines create a need for trained sales personnel representing many different technical backgrounds. These men must deal intelligently with problems in chemistry and en- gineering applied to such fields as plastics, ceramics, textiles, and many others. Du Pont technical men are as- signed to various types of technical sales activity. In some spots they are equipped to handle all phases of sell- Technical Sales ing. In others they deal mainly with customer problems. Also, certain de- partments maintain sales develop- ment sections, where technical prob- lems connected with the introduction of a new product, or a new applica- tion for an established product, are worked out. For example, a technical man in one of Du Pont's sales groups was recently called upon to help a cus- tomer make a better and less expen- sive hose for car radiators. Involved were problems in compounding, such as choice and amount of neoprene, inert fillers, softeners, accelerators, and antioxidants. Correct processing methods also had to be worked out, including optimum time and tem- perature of milling and extruding.
