By MILT NATHANSON Sigma Chi, sparked by Jim Bow- man's 26 points, crushed Zeta Psi last night, 69-14, to gain the third round of the first place playoffs in social fraternity 'B' basketball competition. Zeta Psi jumped off to a quick two point lead, but were never in the game after that, as Sigma Chi rolled up 15 straight points and then went on to lead at the half, 35-4. Sigma Chi substituted free- ly as they virtually scored at will. Using a full court press Sigma Chi controlled the ball for most of the game, and kept play bottled up at the Zeta Psi end of the court. Phi Delts Down SAE In another 'B', first place play- off Phi Delta Theta defeated Sig- ma Alpha Epsilon, 39-33. The Phi Delts took a commanding, 25-17, half-time lead and then coasted through the second half to cop their victory. High scorer for the Phi Delts was George Rich, with 13 points, while Dick Agnew led SAE with eight. Phi Kappa Sigma and Sigma Phi Epsilon were victorious to ad- vance in the second place playoffs. Phi Kappa Sigma romped over x ATO in the second half, after a deadlocked first half, to win 37- 25. Larry Catlin was high scorer for Phi Kappa Sigma with 18 points, while Bob Talley tallied 11 markers for ATO. The first half was played com- paratively slow with both teams refusing to give the other an edge. Track Tickets Reserved seat tickets, priced at $1.50, for the finals of the Big Ten Indoor Track and Field Meet, to be held at Jenison Field House, East Lansing, on Sat., March 5, are available. See George Aster at Yost Field House today from 4 to 5:30 p.m. Friday night tickets may be purchased at East Lansing. The game was broken open in the second half when Phi Kappa Sig- ma started taking advantage of free throws to go out in front and L t C t t ' r r Gamma Delta 35-22 in the other second place playoff. The Phi Gams playing with five men the whole game, faded at the end to allow the Sig Eps to go way out in front. High scorer for the Sig Eps was Muriell Nelson with nine points. In the only third place game played, George Lennon scored 13 points to account for all but four of his team's points, as Phi Sig- ma Delta downed Theta Chi 28- 17. Lennon kept his team in the game, throughout the whole first half as he scored his teams first nine points. When the teams walked off the court at the end of the first half, the Phi Sigs led by only four points, 16-12. In the second half, however, the Phi Sigs greater height gave them control of the boards and cons - quently the game. High scorers for the Phi Sigs were Mitch Zucker with 11 points and Harvey King with eight. WIHL Receives Historic Trophy Western Intercollegiate Hock- ey Champion, Colorado College, will receive a huge, 31-inch tall silver trophy next week at the NCAA ice tourney at Colorado Springs. The cup, called the McNaughton Trophy, is larger than the famed Stanley Cup and will be presented every year to the WIHL champion. It is valued at $3,500. The five-gallon cup is a his- toric momento of amateur hockey, having been given to the American Amateur Hockey champion from 1914-1932, and from 1933-1950 to the Cham- pions of Upper Michigan. The rotating award was presented to the league by a Michigan in- dustrial firm, and was approved by the seven coaches. Cindermen At MSC for League Meet A wholesale assault on the rec- ord books is expected as the Big Ten Indoor Track and Field Championships get under way to- morrow evening at Jenison Field House in East Lansing. Illinois, seeking its fourth straight indoor crown, faces rug- ged competition from Michigan, Indiana and Iowa. The Wolverines are granted the best chance among the three contenders to dethrone the Illini, but the Hoosiers and Hawkeyes aren't far behind. Michigan State's huge field house is noted for its excellent running surface, and is reputed to have one of the fastest indoor dirt tricks in the nation. Good possibilities for new records exist in nine of the 15 events, accord- ing to Karl Schlademan, head coach of the host Spartans. Marks in Jeopardy He listed the high jump, mile run, 70-yard high and low hurdle's, 300, 440, 600, 880 and 1,000-yard runs as the events whose present marks are in jeopardy. Illinois will depena on its aggre- gation of stars to counteract Michigan's better-balanced squad. Iowa doesn't figure to win when- this season's records are consid- ered, but its fine potential makes it a dangerous contender. In- diana, surprise runner-up in last year's meet, possesses the biggest question mark of the meet-Milt Campbell. Campbell, the Hoosiers' sopho- more star of Olympic fame, was counted upon for firsts in the 60- yard dash and 70-yard high hurd- les, but a pulled leg muscle has limited his effectiveness somewhat in recent appearances. The Social Fraternity Swim- ming . meet will be held on Thursday, March 10, at 7 p.m. in the Varsity Pool, instead of today. --Earl RisJkey r7 q L 4, CLIFF KEEN,5 Wolverine wrestling mentor, who was honored by his former wrestlers at a banquet in his honor last Saturday evening comniemorating his thirtieth year as a Michigan coach, Keen Completes Third Decade as Mat Mentor SALES OPPORTUNITIES with The Dow Chemical Company The Dow Chemical Company is presently looking for sales trainees, men to represent Dow in the fast-growing chemical industry.

Top Conference Cage Spots Gained by Iowa, Minnesota from there to win, Sig Eps Victorious Sigma Phi Epsilon beat Phi The dying moments of the 1955v Big Ten basketball season find the first three places already sewed up, but from there on down it's anybody's battle. Iowa, Minnesota, and Illinois rank one-two-three in the confer- ence with one game left for each school. The Hawkeyes, sporting a 11 win, two loss record, can capture the league championship with a win next Monday against Michi- gan, and guarantee themselves a playoff berth in the NCAA finals. If the Hawks lose and Minnesota wins, both squads would end up in a tie for first. A Gopher loss would give the crown to the Hawk- eyes, whether they won or lost. The Big Ten roster for this week find every team except Purdue competing. Purdue, currently hold- ing down sixth slot in the confer- ence, ended the season with a five' win nine loss record. 'MSC Here Saturday Michigan State visits the Wol- verines at Ann Arbor Saturday afternoon in a nationally televised duel. It will be the third game on1 video for Michigan in three Sat- urdays.I The Wolverines are currently inl a slump, having dropped four straight tilts, including their two televised contests. The Golden Go-9 phers smashed Michigan, 74-65,i before the television cameras at Yost Field House, and Iowa Crush- ed the Wolverines, 96-84, at Iowat City in the other televised game. TV Jinx Breaking the TV 'jinx' may be; more difficult for the Wolverines than it appears. In the -.:st duel between the two schools at Jeni- son Field House in East Lansing, the Spartans out lasted the Wol- verines, 81-80. "If that first game had beenE played here, it might have been a different story. Both teams were1 evenly matched then, but the ques- RIVALRY RENEWED: 'M', OSU Vie for Big Ten Swim Title tion is which team has improved. The Spartans have shown great improvement since then, while I doubt whether or not we have," Coach Bill Perigo commented. In other contests, Illinois faces Northwestern at Evanston Satur- day. The Wildcats, tied with MSC for fourth in the conference, need a win to insure holding on to fourth slot, although the Illini keep third position even if they lose. By DAVE RORABACHER When does a coach deserve to be called a truly great coach? Such a question is difficult to answer, but sometime, long since gone, during Cliff Keen's thirty years as Michigan's wrestling coach, he certainly passed all ne- cessary requirements. That such a title is deserved, is borne out by the tremendous rec- ord which his teams have estab- lished in the past. Twenty-six of his teams have finished third or better in Western Conference com- petition and his total compiled dual meet record of 157 wins against only 56 losses and eight ties is truly remarkable. Keen has also turned out 11 na- tional champions, 32 conference champions, and five of his boys have represented the United States in Olympic competition. Keen's personal college wrestling record is quite a feat in itself. He attended the wrestling power- house, Oklahoma A&M, where he was under the tutelage of the great E. C. Gallagher, whose teams won the national championship for 13 straight years. To help maintain this string, Keen, wrestling at 175 pounds, won t h e Southwestern Conference championship two years, the Mis- souri Valley Conference champion- ship, and the National Invitation- al Tournament championship Upon graduation, the Aggie champion successfully tried his hand at high school coaching for a year before making the trek to Ann Arbor in December, 1925 to assume the dual role of wrestling coach and assistant football coach. Not Satisfied Not satisfied with a mere bach- elor's degree he entered Law School three years later and still coaching on the side, or as he puts it, "attending classes on the side," he received his Law Degree in four years. Having passed his bar exam in 1933, he could have entered into a practice which would undoubtedly have been much more lucrative than coaching, but he decided to stay with wrestling as he believed he could do more good in this field. In this belief Keen is very sin- cere. He believes that a boy pre- pares himself for the life before him more fully and soundly through wrestling than through any other sport. He reasons that the challenges wrestling has to of- fer are, in effect, the same chal- lenges to be. met in the vorld after a boy has completed his educa- tion. A wrestler knows the value of hard work; he knows the value of preparing himself fully for the contest; he has learned to make decisions on his own; he has learned to take defeat and come back fighting; and, if he has been' fortunate enough to have wres- tled for Cliff Keen, he knows how to win gracefully and in a sports- manlike manner.

Ford Konno is expected to lead the conference's distance swim- mers to the finish line tonight, al- though Indiana's Bill Woolsey and Michigan's Jack Wardrop could press the diminutive Hawaiian the whole way if their respective coaches choose to enter these men in the event. Ohio State is the probable pre- meet favorite by a slight margin, despite Michigan's upset of the Buckeyes here last Saturday. The Ohio State strength in the back- stroke and depth in diving events gives the Buckeyes a slight edge. Oyakawa Favored Yoshi Oyakawa gives Ohio State a practically certain first place in the backstroke events. The Buck- eye co-captain is unbeaten in his specialty in four years of competi- tion and has become even farther ahead of the field in the past two years. In addition to Oyakawa sophomore Al Wiggins can also be counted on for points in the back- stroke events. However, Coach Mike Peppe may choose to leave Wiggins out of one of the backstroke events and put the versatile star in one of the relays and the individual medley, the event in which he es- tablished an American record by beating Bumpy Jones at Ann Ar- bor Saturday. OSU Divers Strong Ohio's corps of divers, always a source of many points for Ohio State in championship meets will again be counted upon to aid the Buckeye cause. Morely Shapiro, Gerry Harrison, Fletcher Gilders, Frank Fraunfelter, and Vernon Kent are all potential place win- ners. Michigan diving coach Bruce Harlan feels that Jimmy Walters and Charley Bates could upset the Ohio contingent, but as the meet is in the Ohio natatorium, the feat becomes even more difficult. The best races of the meet will probably come in the 220 and 440 yard freestyle, where Jack Wardrop, Konno, and Woolsey will vie for the championship with an eye out for the amazing rec- ord which Wardrop established in NEPBE1AREYTON' CIGAR ETTESI Saturday's dual meet when he de- feated Konno. The 100 yards butterfly, a new, event this season is an unknown in swimming circles. Although Wiggins will be favored if Ohio Coach Mike Peppe chooses to swim him in the event, The freestyle sprints shape up' as g two man battle between Mich- igan's .Ron Gora and Iowa's Dick Pennington. It will be remembered that Pennington touched out Gora in the Michigan-Iowa dual meet,' but the Michigan star turned in the best 50 yard time of his ca- reer when he captured the event against Ohio State. Michigan's Bumpy Jones, who lost his first collegiate individual medley race Saturday to Ohio State's Wiggins, will again be underdog in that event, but could emerge the victor in the 200 yard beraststroke. His main competi- tion will come from John Dudeck of Michigan State. %I ~XOER, SIZE, FILTER TIP TAREYTON True Tobacco Taste...
