Hundreds of students and townspeople are expected to crowd the building on Hoover Street to view the many and varied activities that will mark the official windup of the winter intramural season. The initial events will commence at 6.30 p.m. with the end of the program coming at around 10:00. The swimming pool and the main gymnasium will be the centers of excitement while even the most remote nooks of the labyrinthine structure will contain their share of spectator appeal. Topping the program in the gym will be six championship basket- ball games. Sigma Chi will face Phi Kappa Sigma for the fraternity 'A' championship; the Seldom Seen Kids will battle: the Globetrotters in the independent division; Williams will meet Strauss in the residence halls 'A' contest; and it will be Nu Sigma Nu vs. Phi Alpha Kappa for the pro-fraternity crown. Phi Delta Theta will meet Sigma Chi and Gomberg will battle Williams in the 'B' championship matches. Water Sports Featured . .. ANf EXHIBITION of fancy and clown diving by members of the varsity swimming team will start off activities in the pool. Following this will be the finals of the fraternity and residence halls swimming meets while Williams will face Cooley for the Water Polo crown. Volleyball will feature the Turks vs. the Chinese in one of the top battles of the year in this sport. Also included will be two games between some of the top faculty teams. Director Earl Riskey estimates that nearly 500 men will be com- peting in the various events of the evening which also will feature demonstrations and competition in squash, paddleball, tennis, code- ball, fencing, handball, gymnastics, boxing, and wrestling, a total of fourteen sports. One of top exhibitions of the evening will undoubtedly be in squash where the several matches are billed simply as-the Detroit Squash Club vs. the University of Michigan. Various students and faculty members will comprise the Michigan aggregation, giving spectators a chance to become acquainted with this fast and hard- fought sport. Fencing will feature exhibition matches with the epee, foil and sabre weapons following which will be exhibition boxing bouts. The state doubles championship team of John Scopis and Harold Kutnick will participate in a handball exhibition match while three matches in the unusual sport of codeball will be featured in adjoining courts. Varsity Members' Included .. . WRESTLING, GYMNASTICS, AND TENNIS will feature demonstra- tions and exhibitions by members of the varsity and freshman squads. Residexlce hall and fraternity matches will be held in paddle- ball throughout the evening. The history behind the idea of the Open House is a long and interesting one. Originally begun in 1928 as a means of attracting interest in the "new" Sports Building the program has been continued every year save for a brief period during the second World War. Now celebrating its silver anniversary the annual event has grown into a mammoth production which highlights the intramural program. Weeks of preparation go into the planning of the popular affair and the spectator generally finds himself torn between two or more ,concurrent events throughout the evening. , Programs will be available listing the time schedule and location of all events on the program and the respective titles at stake. AEPi's, Phi Gams Cop Second Place Crowns By DICK CRAMER Michigan and Michigan Tech join their Eastern rivals aboard the "Broadmoor Special" today at 1 p.m. bound for this weekend's cli- mactic NCAArhockey playoffs at Colorado Springs. Local fans will have their last chance to see the WIHL represen- tativestto thednationaltourney when the squads leave from the Union for Willow Run Airport at 11:30 this morning. Coach Vic Heyliger's Wolverines will be traveling to their ninth consecutive NCAA tournament. They will be defending the cham- pionship which they won last year for the fifth time. Grey To Represent Daily Hockey Editor Dave Grey will continue a long Daily tradition by flying to Colorado Springs to send back a first hand report of playoff proceedings. There will be ample opportunity for Michigan to accustom itself to the rarefied Colorado atmos- phere before opening its battle to cop the crown for the sixth time. Its semi-final contest is not until Friday night against St. Lawrence. Tomorrow evening the first of the East-West semi-finals will be- gin the three-day spectacle. Michi- gan Tech takes on Boston College for the opportunity to face the Michigan-St. Lawrence winner in Saturday night's championship battle. Before leaving for the Broad- moor, Tech and Michigan utilized two days of practice on Coliseum ice. The Huskies remained in Ann Arbor after their humiliating losses to therWolverines last week- end. Besides several practice sessions in Ann Arbor, most of the Tech squad spent some time with their studies. Coach Al Renfrew ad- ministered makeup exams to the Huskies, long absent from classes. Cigar Included Renfrew, a facsimile of his brother-in-law, Wolverine coach Heyhiger-even to the extent of smoking a worn cigar-looked for- ward at yesterday's practice to his team's first NCAA appearance. "Just going out there is a great experience in itself," commented the Tech mentor. Obviously, his hopes of taking the championship from Michigan-four-time van- quisher of 'his squad-were not too strong. Meanwhile, before leaving, Hey- liger tried to be noncommital about his team's chances, but with most of his Wolverines veterans of the Broadmoor classic, Michigan cannot avoid being considered "the team to beat." 4 4' PRACTICING for the last time at the Coliseum yesterday morning are the Michigan Tech Huskies who, with Michigan, leave today to represent the Western Intercollegiate Hockey League in the NCAA tournament at Colorado Springs. Tech remained in Ann Arbor following its two losses to Michigan last weekend. This afternoon the Huskies and Wolverines join the Eastern delegates to the NCAA playoffs, Boston College and St. Lawrence, aboard the "Broadmoor Special." The "Special" is a chartered plane which carries all four semi-finalist teams to Colorado for the three-day tourney at the Broadmoor Ice Palace. At Colorado, besides the all-important hockey contests, there will be full scale festivities honoring the squads chosen to play in the playoffs. A SECOND STRAIGHT YEAR: Dons Top Final AP Basketball Poll, By The Associated Press The University of San Francisco Dons, unbeaten 'this season and sporting a gaudy 51-straight re-' cord, are the nation's No. 1 college basketball team for the second consecutive year. That was the verdict yesterday in the final nationwide poll of The Associated Press. San Francisco never let the ex- perts down, for they predicted in a preseason poll that the Dons were of championship caliber, and they ranked No. 1 in every weekly poll since early December. The Dons, who were voted No. 1 a year ago and then went on to prove it by copping the NCAA tournament, have another tough tourney round ahead of them starting Friday when they clash with UCLA, Pacific Coast Confer- ence champions. North Carolina State wound up as the No. 2 team on the basis of games through Saturday, March 10. A total of 132 sports writers and sportscasters cast ballots in the final poll, and San Francisco re- ceived 66 first place votes. On the basis of 10 for first, 9 for second, etc., the Dons rolled up 1,161 points. N. C. State had nine votes for first, and 809 points. This is the eighth annual AP basketball poll.

The battles were for second, third and fourth place crowns in both the 'A' and 'B' division for social fraternities. In a game that was close until late in the second half, Phi Gam- maDelta topped Phi';Kappa Sigma, 40-30 in the second place 'B' game. On the strength of a last second basket, the half-time score was 16-15 in favor of the Phi Gains and with the help of Keith Coates' 10 points they widened the margin at the game's end. Marshall Wads- worthscored 12 for the losers. In a very, low scoring contest, Alpha Epsilon Pi edged Lambda Chi Alpha, 22-20 as both teams had trouble in shooting. The score was tied at the half, 6-6 and no more than four points ever separated the two teams. Late in the second per- iod the AEPi's managed to grab; the lead and held it the rest of the way. Buddy Seligsohn and Don Mazin were high for the winners with eight apiece. In the third place 'A' game, Zeta Beta Tau romped to a 48-22 vic- tory over Chi Phi. As the second half opened, ZBT pumped in 13 straight points before the Chi Phi was able to score. Stan Alfred of ZBT was high man for the-game with 27 tallies. Psi Upsilon scored first and never relinquished the lead as it downed Delta Upsilon, 51-34 to take the third place 'B' contest. Theta Chi took an easy 49-23 win from Zeta Psi in the fourth place 'A' game as Duane Willse tallied 18 points, 14 of them com- ing in the second half. Phi Kappa Psi rounded 'out the evening by beating Alpha Sigma Phi, 44-31 in the fourth place 'B' contest. Niles Kinnunen added 12 to the winners' total. By HANK ROSENBAUM Fighting on the other fellow's terms is always a disadvantage. The Olympic wrestlers from the United States will find this out when they compete in the free- style and Greco-Roman wrestling championships in the Olympic Games at Melbourne, Australia November 22 through December 8. Rules governing Olympic wrest- ling have been set up by the Inter- national Amateur Wrestling Fed- eration and are quite different from those followed in high schools and colleges throughout the U.S. The matches are 15 minutes long, Jenlins Brothers To Star In Local Ice Club's Show Hayes Alan Jenkins, Ilen's Olympic figure skating champion, and his brother, David, will be in Ann Arbor this Sunday. The two spectacular brothers will be featured here for this weekend'; Ann Arbor Figure Skat- ing Club's annual ic.; show, "Mel- ody on Ice." Regular performances of the show are scheduled for 8 p.m. Saturday and 3 p.m. Sunday at the Coliseum. Club members have said that the Jenkins brothers, however, will not be able to at- tend Saturday night's perform- ance. To avoid the expected problem of -an overflow crowd on Sunday afternoon, a special exhibition of the two Olympic stars has been planned for 6:15 p.m. Sunday. Club officials emphasized that only club members and their fam- ilies and Saturday night ticket holders will be admitted to this performance. Ticket holders must retain their stubs for admittance and club members must show U.S. Figure Skating Association membership cards. At the regular 3 p.m. show on Sunday, the two brothers will pre-' sent their Olympic free skating programs., a full six minutes longer than in American wrestling, but they move at a slower pace and to some de- gree lack the color of the U.S. style. The object is to touch the op- ponent's shoulders to the mat in- stead of holding them there for a full two seconds so it is relatively easier for the man having the hold to lose the match. Bouts are not decided upon pointuevaluation but upon the decision of three judges. Little em- phasis is placed upon escapes, takedowns, or riding time, in fact excessive riding is considered akin to stalling tactics. Free-style wrestling is the most widely used in the U.S. although a few universities such -as the Uni- versity of Toledo teach the Greco- Roman style. The big difference between the two is that Greco-Roman does not allow grapplers to use their feet and legs and no holds below the waist are legal. Olympic wrestling tryouts will soon be held starting with the re- gional tournaments and culminat- ing in the finals at Los Angeles, California. The regional tryouts for this area will take place April 13-14 in Michigan State Normal College's huge new field house at Ypsilanti. 1.
