By DICK CRAMER Michigan's ice squad, tied for fourth Place in the Western In- tercollegiate Hockey League, vis- its East Lansing tonight at 8:00 p.m. in an effort to continue a 27- year mastery o v e r Michigan State's Spartans. The battle tonight with the sec- ond place Spartans will count one point in the WIHL standings and will be the first of four games be- tween the teams this season. To- morrow night the teams will meet again here at the Coliseum at 8:00 p.m. Two weekend victories are vital for the Wolverines if they expect to move toward their usual posi- tion high in the WIHL. Eighteen Veterans Eighteen returning lettermen have made the Spartanssheavy favorites to score their first vic- tory over the Wolverines since 1927. Despite a history of being unbeaten in 21 consecutive games with the Spartans, the 11-man, relatively inexperienced Michigan Attention all senior and jun- ior athletic managers: The Michigan Undergraduate Ath- letic Managers' council will have a meeting Sunday, Janu- ary 9, at 2 p.m. in the Athletic Administration Building. The Ensian picture will be taken at 2:00. -Dick Petrie, Chairman squad will find an extremely dif- ficult foe in Michigan State. Leading the Spartans' attack will be Co-Captain Weldie Olson and Jim Ward, sharing the cen- ter position, and forward Jack Mayes. Together theyrhave scored 19 goals and assisted on 23 oth- ers in their first eleven games. Michigan State also f i n d s strength in the return of goalie Ed Schiller, who was chosen his team's most valuable player last year. Schiller will be remembered as the player instrumental in hold- ing Michigan to a scoreless tie in one of the four meetings between the schools in 1954. Raz Ineligible One severe blow has been dealt Coach Amo Bessone's hopes of ending the Wolverine jinx. High- scoring wingman Steve Raz has been declared ineligible for further competition this year because of a scholastic deficiency in the just- completed fall term. Eugene Gra- zia has been chosen to replace Raz, who had accounted for 15 Points this season. Coach Vic Heyliger has been concentrating his attention on of- fense during this week's practices of the Wolverines. Michigan was able to tally only eight goals in its recent four-game jaunt through Colorado. In winning only one of the games with Colorado College and Denver University, the Wol- verines displayed adequate de- fense in the rarefied air, but fell far short on offense. Schiller Returns By DON LINDMAN Is Tom Whiteleather still with Ohio State's Big Ten swimming titlists? Michigan's hopes for annexing the conference crown this year may hinge on the answer to this question as the Wolverines pre- pare for the season opener against Iowa State next Monday after- noon. Reports from reliable sources indicate that the Buckeye All- American may be missing from Coach Mike Peppe's squad, al- though no official information has been received from Columbus. Ac- cording to the available informa- TOM WHITELEATHER. . so long, OSU Big Ten Threatens Withdrawal .from NCAA over TV Policy (Continued from Page 1) 1 tion, Whiteleather had lost inter- est in swimming earlier in the year and now has dropped out of school. Break for Maize and Blue Should the rumors prove true, it would be a big break for the Maize-and-Blue squad of Coaches Gus Stager and Bruce Harlan. Whiteleather was being counted on heavily in the sprints, and his loss leaves Peppe without a test- ed replacement for graduated star Dick Cleveland. An All-American in both free- style sprints and the freestyle re- lay, the Buckeye senior placed fourth in both sprints in the 1954 Big Ten championships and was touted as one of the top contend- ers for national honors this year. Michigan's swimming fortunes seem to be rising regardless of the status of Whiteleather, since sev- eral Wolverine natators have been performing unexpectedly well late- ly. Even a newly instituted rule governing the breastroke kick seems to favor the Maize-and-Blue squad, The new rule legalizing the "dolphin" kick in the breastroke may prove to be the biggest boost of all to Wolverine hopes. Jack and Bert Wardrop have used the kick in European races and should have a big advantage in experience on the American tank- ers who have to learn the new kick this year. Under the tutilage of Harlan, divers Jim Walters and Charlie Bates are improving rapidly and are expected to break into the monopoly of conference honors which Peppe's diving crew has dominated. for years. Sophomores John Thurlow and Harrison Wehner may also pro- vide an unexpected boost to Wol- verine title aspirations by provid- ing needed depth in the breast- stroke and freestyle events. Thur- low is rapidly developing into an excellent orthodox breaststroker, while the hard-working Wehner has been turning in exceptionally good times in the distance free- style events. The eastern schools expressed their feelings when the athletic director of Pittsburgh, Tom Ham- ilton, said, "We're dealing with economics in college athletics. It's a matter of national concern and can't be divided into regions." Here in Ann Arbor Wolverine swimming coach Gus Stager indi- cated that withdrawal of the Big Ten from the NCAA would further limit competition for his squads. He also said that in the new var- sity swimming pool four television outlets are being installed and this by not playing member schools, they would find numerous com- petitors in Canadian teams and in' the Big Ten. The television question may come up on the floor of the con- vention today, sessions were peaceful. This probably bring although today's expected to be discussion would heated arguments.

J S SLASHED! (First in a series of articles intro- ducing the 1955 trace squad.) By STEVE HEILPERN and CORKY SMITH It isn't often that a track coach can lose six Conference champions by graduation and still field a strong team. Michigan track mentor Don Canham admits that, "at present, we're just a shadow of last year's team," but adds that the Wolver- ines should finish in the top quar- tet of Big Ten squads. Gone from the scene are Fritz Nilsson, Roy Pella, John Ross, George Lynch, Jack Carroll and FOR YOUR PARTY SUPPLIES Keg Beer Ice Cubes Soft Drinks* QUICK DRIVE-IN SERVICE Milt Mead, all Conference title holders at one time or another. Also lost by graduation are such stalwarts as Roger Maugh, Roy Christiansen, Bill Michaels and others. 15 Sophomores Canham, however, has a fine array of sophomores to augment his list of returning lettermen, Al- though virtually untested in com- petition thus far, many of the newcomers have shown great pro- mise in practice. In fact, 15 sopho- mores, more than half the team, will be on the competing squad. How rapidly they develop will de- termine the team's success. Hobart Jones, who attended the University of Nebraska before en- tering the service, will be a strong man In the mile and 880-events. He participated on the Air Force All-Star team along with Mal Whitfield, Olympic Gamesveter- an. In the shot put event, weakened by the departure of Nilsson, sopho- more Dave Owen has given Can- ham hope for the future.Can- ham has called him "one of the best freshman shotputters we've had." In the discus there is Ken Bottoms, who has also looked very good thus far. Mansfield in 2-Mile Run Bob Mansfield, whose home is in Farmington, Mich., is a state high school mile champ. A sopho- more, Canham is grooming him for the 2-mile run. A onetime 100-yard dash state champion is John Johnson, a sophomore from Kalamazoo, Mich. Johnson is a good sprinter and should give John Vallortigara some competition in this depart- ment.Another state champion is Alonzo Harris, sophomore from Pontiac, Mich. In high school he ran away with the 220 yard dash title at the state meet last year. He is also a broad jump prospect. Outstater Jesse Blout should lend strong support in the hurdle events. Blout lives in Cleveland, O., where he ran the 440 in high school. Tom Skimming, who topped the 13-foot mark as a freshman last year,his being counted on heavily in the pole vault event. Broad jumper Roger Severson and high jumper Stan Menese are also rated excellent soph prospects, while Ross McNab, running the quarter mile, should contribute points in the 440 and mile relay.
