If the Wolverines expect to gain a second place finish in the West- ern Hockey League, and a NCAA playoff - berth they must gain at least a split against the Gophers or else drop virtually out of con- tention. 15,000 to See Series A total of over L5,000 rabid Go- pher fans will view the series; ' which if swept by the Wolverines could pull them to within a half, point of second place in the wild WIHL race. For the Gophers it is likewise a crucial series, for a Wolverine sweep would ruin all Minnesota NCAA playoff hopes. In their last series, Minnesota won the first 10-4, and the Maize and Blue copped the second, 5-3. At that time the Wolverines were without the services of Tom Ren- dalI and Mike Buchanan, and their presence at Williams Arena this weekend may Mlake the difference between victory and defeat. 4 Heyliger Pessimistic However Michigan Coach Vic Heyliger is pessimistic. Before the 15-man Wolverine squad took off for Minneapolis yesterday Heylig- er told the Daily, "We have a 50- 50 chance to gain even a split- with only one decent line and a leaky defense, we don't expect much." He ent on to berate his defense, claiming that they are too eager to get out and chase the puck. "By doing this they leave goalie Lorne Howes wide open-and with John- ny Mayasich shooting at him, this fault will be disastrous." Meanwhile up at Minneapolis, Gopher mentor Johnny Mariucci, newly named coach of the Unit- ed States' Olympic Hockey Team, was also moaning. Mariucci Wails "Michigan is a much improved squad ovew theslast time we played them, and our boys are dead tired," the chisel-featured Marriuci wail- ed. But he still has Johnny Maya- sich, the league's top scorer, who will be performing before his home fans for the final time this week- end. Mayasich scored four goals and assisted on four others in the last Minnesota win over Michigan. Since their last meeting, Michi- gan has won three and dropped one, while the Gophers, playing much more often, have won six and lost four. This series will set the stage for the even more vital four-point se- ' By LEW HAMBURGER Coach Newt Loken's gymnasts face their greatest test of the sea- son this evening when they engage defending Big Ten champion Illi- nois at 8 p.m. at the Sports Build- ing. The Illini, who are seeking to rebound from last week's 521/2- 43/2 defeat at the hands of Min- nesota, have regained the services of classy high bar, parallel bar, and flying rings performer Tom' Gardner. The defeat was the first dual loss the Illini have suffered in over a year. Loken feels that the absense of Gardner was the cause of the loss. He felt that the Illinois captain' could have made up the point dif- ference. However, he hastened to atld that the meet showed that Illinois is not unbeatable and that JOHN MAYASICH .. . goal-getting gopher Sigma Chi, Gomberg Capture I-M 880-Yard Relay Crowns should the Illini star have a bad day, or Wolverine Nick Wiese have an exceptionally fine one, the tables could be turned Wiese Unbeaten Wiese is unbeaten in dual meets this year on the flying rings and has been improving through hard work. Gardner, however, will pro- vide a supreme test for the Michi- gan sophomore. In the trampoline event Loken will rely on Jack Burchfield, Frank Adams, and Captain Bill Winkler. Adams, senior mainstay, and Winkler will combine with Wiese to carry Michigan's hopes in the tumbling. Opposing them in both events will be Illinois standouts Dan Lirot and Jeff Austin. Lirot, a junior, placed seventh in the NCAA tumb- ling last season, and coach Charles Pond calls Lirot and Austin two of the finest tumblers in the nation. Austin finished fifth in the NCAA tumbling event, but was second in trampoline competition. Side Horse Trio Gardner, Tony Hlinka, and Jon Culbertson will form the Illini trio in the 'side horse and will oppose Michigan's Tony San Antonio, Bob Armstrong, and Wayne Warren. Michigan thus far this season has a three and two record, hav- ing beaten Notre Dame, Wisconsin, and Northwestern, while losing to Michigan State and Minnesota. The Wolverines will entertain Indiana at 9 p.m. at the Sports Building tomorrow night. Loken, however, is taking first things first in concentrating all efforts toward beating Illinois. Indiana, he feels will offer little serious opposition, although Sam Bonsignore has performed well thus far.
