THE MCMGAN DAILY SUNDAY, MARCH 4,1956 .. .. AN D IY ThDY AR! 415 Gymnasts Fail in Big Ten Crown Bids Wolverine Gym Squad Tops Michigan State for Second 40 V (Continued from Page 1) and Nick Wiese then took-a tie for fourth and sixth, respectively, in the flying rings to keep Michigan far enough ahead so that the Spar- tans' Roland Brown, fourth in the tumbling, couldn't close the gap. The Illini so completely domi- nated the championship running that after only three events the runner-up slot fell into the spot- light. After the third event Illinois had more points than Michigan was able to garner all evening. The winning total was 162/2 points. Behind Coach Charlie Pond's Champaign powerhouse came Michigan with 70/2 points, Michigan State with 661/2, Iowa with 611/2, and Minnesota with 49. CHICO SAN ANTONIO ... 'greatest performance" leers Defeat Tech, 6-3 v, Tech's Huskies had built around themselves. Ed Switzer, Don McIntosh, and Tom Rendall added the other three goals as the Wolverines dominated the game from start to finish. Stage Is Set Scoring once in the first period, twice in the second, and three times in the third, the Wolverines set the stage for this weekend's titanic battle at Ann Arbor. Both teams now have 17 points in League play. A sweep for either team gains an outright WIHL title, while a split will end the race in a tie. If Tech wins one game from Michigan, the two teams will be tied in final points, but the Huskies will be one up in the "won column." Michigan was obviously the bet- ter team, although the game was close up until the explosive Wol- verine attack in the final period. Tech was forced throughout most of the contest to fight for the puck in its defensive ice. It ap- peared last night as if the Huskies were not in the same class as the Wolverines, and the partisan over- flow crowd in Dees Stadium seem- ed to know it. Goalies Busy Both Goalies-Michigan's Lorne Howes and Tech's Bob McManus- had a busy night. Howes was press- ed to make 39 saves; McManus had 35.

Al Cn' ond night brought a sudden finish to the Huskies' hopes. Rendall started things off for Michigan at 7:30, when he took a perfect pass from MacFarland, faked goalie McManus out of posi- tion, and pushed the puck in be- hind him. Tech came back with less than a minute left in the first period to tie the score. Jack McManus LATE HOCKEY Denver 5, Colorado 1 blistered a shot by Howes with Jerry Karpinka in the penalty box at the time. Michigan jumped ahead at 5:39 when McIntosh tallied on well- executed pass play. McManus scored again about a minute later to tie the score and send the home town fans into an uproar. MacFarland Scores Again MacFarland scored again soon after and the Wolverines were out ahead to stay.

This was the seventh straight Big Ten title for Illinois. Illinois had not real outstanding star by the results, but their depth ran up points so fast that it be- came hard for the other squads to keep up the blistering pace. Illinois' Gavin Blair tied for first in the side horse with Iowa's Sam Bailee, while Don Tonry, also wearing the Illini livery, copped the coveted all-around title. Dan Lirot also picked up a win'in the tumbling. Gagnier Tops For 'MW' Gagnier was Michigan's top producer in gathering 37% points on his first on the parallel bars, third in the all-around and free exercise, a tie for fourth in the flying rings, and a seventh on the side horse. Wiese, working on the high bar, flying rings, tumbling, and all- around, got fifth, seventh, sixth, and tenth respectively. Coach Newt Loken was extreme- ly proud of his team, remarking, "I feel very happy that we finished second. San Antonio gave the greatest performance of his gym- nastics career. "I tremendously admire Ed Gag- nier for his comeback tonight. Af- ter his disastrous fall off the high bar yesterday afternoon, he rallied and gave a great account of him- self." Santee :First In Columbian NEW YORK (AP)-Wes Santee returned to action last night and with a crowd of 12,000 in Madison Square Garden madly cheering his every stride, won the Columbian mile in 4:13.8. The race climaxed a wild day of court action, indecision and jock- eying by AAU s officials, Santee's attorney and other runners. Santee, barred by the AAU for accepting excessive expenses two weeks ago, was reinstated last Thursday when his attorney, Charles-P. Grimes, obtained an injunction nullifying the AAU ac- tion. The AAU appealed the injunc- tion .yesterday morning and was turned down. That left Santee still an amateur and the AAU con- ceded he was eligible. That's how it stood until late yesterday when the other runners began to pull out one by one. Fin- ally he raced against only Ed Kirk of the Air Force and Ed Shea of the Army. -Daily-John Hirtzel WITH A MIGHTY LEAP Ron Kramer (27) bags a two-pointer to temporarily halt Michigan's demise before Minnesota's Gophers last night, 86-72. Jockeying for rebound positions are Wolverines Pete Tillotson (26) and Randy Tarrier (23) and Dave Tucker (23) of Minnesota. Minnesota Cagers set Wolverine Five, 86-7 . A By ALAN EISENBERG Associate Sports Editor Minnesota proved to be the bet- ter of two bad basketball teams at Yost Field House last night. Michigan played its usual inept game as the Gophers triumphed, 86-72. The Wolverines passed poorly, shot inaccurately, and re- bounded ineffectually. The Maize and Blue will close out still another dismal season to- morrow night when they meet arch-rival Michigan State. Game time will be at the usual 8 p.m. Early Lead In the opening moments it looked as if Michigan would have an easy night. Four quick baskets -two each by Tom Jorgensen and Ron Kramer-gave the home team an 8-0 lead. But Minnesota re- fused to wilt, finally tying the score at 14 when Jerry Dommeyer scored with eight minutes gone in the first half. One minute later a field goal by forward Dave Tucker gave 'the winners a lead they never relin- quished. The Gophers kept on applying the pressure and by half time amassed a 46-32 advantage. After the intermission Michigan made a valiant effort to hold on to the coveted seventh spot in the Big Ten standings. Minnesota's Maurice DeMarais opened the scoring but then the Wolverines hit- for six straight points. With five minutes played, the last of three successive baskets by Pete Tillotson reduced the lead to six points, 55-49. It was at this point thai the visitors started clicking-anC Michigan never again threatened. George Kline and Dommeyer led the scoring attack for the win- ners. The 6'3" Kline tallied 26 points while Dommeyer notched 22. Five men hit in double figures for the Wolverines with Kramer's 20 leading the parade. Michigan's lumbering center, however, did not play an inspiring game. Kramer was successful on less than 30 percent of his field goal tries and could not make any of five attempts from the free throw line. Many of his passes went awry and he had great difficulty in guarding Dommeyer in the second half. ak Same Story MINNESOTA G Tucker, f ........... 6 Kline, f............10 Kindall, f..........
