In 1500; O'Reilly Third-

NEW YORK (N)-Just as im-
pressive in the voting as he has
been in leading San Franciscoto
48 straight victories, 6-foot-10 Bill
Russell dominates the 1956 Associ-
ated Press collegiate All-America
basketball team.
Russell missed a perfect tally
by only 91 points in the voting of
329 sportswriters and broadcasters
announced yesterday.

He received 308 first team votes
and seven second team notations
for an aggregate 1,554 points on
the basis of five for a first and two
for a second. A perfect score would
have been 1,645.

Duquesne and Tom Heinsohn of
Holy Cross, comprise the remain-
der of the team. All are seniors.
Freeman, who is engaged in a
virtual neck-and-neck struggle
with Floyd for major college indi-
vidual scoring honors, was an easy
second in the balloting. He got
1,257 points on 233 firsts and 46
seconds. Green, Duquesne's "one-
man team" polled 861 on 153 and
48 followed by Floyd's 813 on 125
and 94. Heinhorn barely beat our
Ronnie Shavlik of North Carolina
State with 624 points on 98 firsts
and 82 seconds.
Shavlik got 81 firsts and 88 sec-
onds for 581 points to top the sec-
ond team. K. C. Jones, Russell's
San Francisco teammate, was the
only other player to poll over 500
points. He received 519 on 73
firsts and 77 seconds.
Completing the second team are
"Hot Rod" Hundley of West Vir-
ginia with 470 points, Len Rosen-
bluth of North Carolina, 324, and
seven-foot Bill Uhl of Dayton, 322.

By ED SALEM
Special to The Daily
LAFAYETTE, Indiana - Indi-
ana's Bill Woolsey won the 1500
meter freestyle last night, but Ohio
State accumulated more points as
the 1956 Big Ten Swimming Cham-
pionships got underway here at
the Purdue Fieldhouse Pool.
Woolsey easily won the event,
the only one of the evening, in the
creditable time of 19.5:8, but Ohio
State placed men in the second
and fourth positions to give them
eight points. Woolsey's first place
was worth seven points to the
Hoosiers.

Jorgensen Breaks Individual
Three-Year Scoring Record

Year by year, each record has
only been the incentive for an-
other.
Mack Supronowicz's total of 634
points for his college career, 1947-
1950, served as a Michigan goal

only until Don Eaddy surpassed
this mark witha new high of 823
points last year.
Paul Groffsky, captain of the
1955 cagers, compiled a total of
773 for his cage career, only to be
outdone by teammate Eaddy.
While the Michigan cage fans
had their attention centered on
high-scoring Ron Kramer, team
captain Tom Jorgensen, by virtue
of a 45-point performance in two
weekend games, boosted his career
total to 828 points and set a new
mark.
Winding up a cage career which
was considerably marred because
of a bad leg, Jorgensen is sporting
an average of 11.8 points Per game
in 12 conference contests. His .868
free throw shooting average is
second in the Big Ten, which is
headed by Indiana's Hallie Bryant
with .891.
Kramer Averaging 21
The inimitable Ron Kramer, who
is averaging 21.0 points per game
in 12 conference battles this sea-
son, is the only Michigan basketeer
to ever shoot over 20 points per
game. At present, he is sixth in
the Big Ten jindividual scoring
race and is only .8 of a point away
from the third slot.
In his two years of cage play,
Kramer has hit for 766 points, just
68 short of Jorgensen's three-year
mark.
Records are made to be broken
and when Tom Jorgensen set his
new mark, he put up a sign which
reads, "Here's a New Target."
And Mr. Kramer is the man
who's got his eye right on the
bulls-eye.

Due to the time needed to swim
the required distance, the event
was run in three heats, with poin*
being awarded for the six best
times. All of the top five per-
formances of the night occurred
in the third heat.
O'Reilly Third
Michigan's Captain John O'Reil-
ly swam the event i nthe fastest
time of his career to cop third
place honors for the Wolverines.
He finished just four seconds be-
hind ther Buckeye's Jerry McNa-
mee, although at one point he was
only 20 yards behind.
O'Reilly got ofT to a poor start
but after each of the 65 lengths
of the pool required to complete
the distance found himself gain-
ing on the leaders. Unfortunately,
neither Woolsey or McNamee were
to be cenied as they, too, turned
on the power leaving the Wolver-
ine behind.
Michigan's only other entry in
the race, Harrison Wenner, swam
an excellent race and finished sec-
ond in his heat. However, his time
was only the eighth best of the
night.
Valuable Points
Ohio State picked up other valu-
able points, as Rocco Cirigliano
managed to beat both Earl Ellis
of Iowa and Jack Beattie of MSU
for fourth place honors. Ellis and
Beattie gaining fifth and sixth
places, respectively.
Team honors thus far, in addi-
tion to OSU, go to Indiana in
second with seven points. Gus
Stager's Wolverines have garnered
only four points giving them a
third. The remainder of the list
includes Iowa with two and Michi-
gan State with a single point, fol-
lowed by the other four squads
which failed to place.
Final Events
Four final events will take place
this afternoon, namely, the 50 and
220 yd. freestyle races, 200 yr.
backstroke,t and200 yd. butterfly.
This evening will feature the 400
yd. freestyle relay and the one
meter diving competition. An in-
jury received by Buckeye Glen
Whitten makes his competing
doubtful in the diving event.
