Game time is 8 p.m. Tickets on Sale Tickets are on sale at the Ath- letic Administration Building un- til 4:30 today and after 5 p.m. are obtainable at the rink. The newcomers that Coach Vic Heyliger will use tonight are Bar- rie Hayton, a defenseman, and forwards John Hutton, Don Gour- ley, John Rendall and Gary Starr. Rendall is a brother of Tom Ren- dall, star forward on the varsity. These additions will enable Heyliger to form an entire line - composed of freshmen, with the extra forward" being used to cen- ter the third line, between Jay Goold and Jerry Karpinka. Heyliger is pleased with the op- portunity to face 'some outside competition and feels that the game will be beneficial to the squad as a tune up for this weekend's series at Minnesota. Hard pressed once again to make one of the two NCAA play- off spots, Michigan is not expected to have to forfeit any games .due to the suspension of Wally Max- well and Mike Buchanan. Wilson to Be in Nets General Manager Jack Adams and Coach Jim Skinner of the Red Blott Recovering Jack Blott, Michigan line coach, is expected to be dis- charged from St. Joseph Mercy Hospital sometime this week according to Les Etter, Univer- sity Athletic Publicity Director. Blott was admitted to, the hospital fot a gall bladder op- eration two weeks ago. Wings plan to bring their entire squad into Ann Arbor for tonight's encounter. All of the profession- als will play, with the possible exception of regular goalie Glenn Hall. Detroit generally uses its as- sistant trainer, Ross 'Lefty' Wil- son, in the nets in exhibition games, but there is a chance that Hall might make a token appear- ance.; In addition to being quite a showman, Wilson is also a capable goal keeper. Several weeks ago when Toronto was without a spare following injury to their goalie Harry Lumley, Wilson was pressed into action and performed bril- liantly against his teammates, --Daily-Dick Gaskill RED WING star Gordie Howe closes in for a shot on Michigan's Lorne Howes in last year's 'exhibition game which the De- troiters won 10-3. The two teams meet once again tonight at 8 p.m. at the Coliseum. Tankmens Hopes-Rest On Cruc I Indiana Meet Conference Cellar Close For Cagers' By STEVE HEILPERN "Slump" isn't the word to use anymore. It's becoming quite evident that Michigan's basketball team is go- ingsto wind up the season far from the top of the Big Ten standings --and perhaps close to the bottom. The Wolverines find a little solace in noting that four of the remaining five games on the cur- rent schedule are at home, giving them a good chance to better their record (3-6 Conference, 2-9 over- all.) Fatal Weekend A horrendous weekend, featur- ing one-sided losses at Indiana and Illinois, dropped the local quintet to an eighth-place tie in the West- ern Conference. The loss to mighty Illinois, 89- 66, Monday night, came as no sur- prise; the Illini are leading the pack with a perfect 8-0 record. Michigan played creditably, and gave the nation's third-ranked college team some uneasy moments in the first half. Again it was Ron Kramer who carried most of the burden. Kra- mer, whose recent scoring splurges may earn him some post-season honors, led both teams with 26 points. He is now averaging 20.1 points-per-game, but is getting little offensive support. Accuracy Improved Michigan hit on 33 per cent of its field goal attempts against Illinois, an improvement over some recent endeavors, but the hosts sported a 40 per cent mark. Indiana, which will visit Yost Field House this Saturday night, turned a close contest into a sec- ond-half rout last Saturday. Paced by Archie Dees, Wally Choice and Hallie Bryant, the Hoosiers smoth- ered Bill Perigo's squad, 97-73. The Indiana game was the last in a Michigan uniform for for- ward Jerry Stern, who has used up his eligibility. Soph Randy Tarrier and junior Milt Lingle will fill Stern's position. RON WALLINGFORD ... record-breaker Dons Retain Cage Lead By the Associated Press The San Francisco Dons rolled merrily along yesterday as the na- tion's No. 1 college basketball team, which is a lot more than some other clubs in the top 10 could boast. 1.

UCLA 1 (13-5) 51 By JOHN HILLYER Their impressive showing at the Michigan State Relays last week- end proved almost conclusively that Michigan's trackmen will pro- vide a big threat at the Big Ten Championships on Marche 2-3 at Lansing. - Highlighting the team's showing was the world indoor record for the sprint medley relay, consisting of a quarter-mile, two 220's and an 880. Scruggs, Flodin, Rudesill and star distance man Ron Wall- ingford did it in 3:26.5, to knock :02.2 off the old mark, established in 1954 by Kansas. Though both Michigan and Kansas took four firsts at the an- nual cinde extravaganza, Michi- gan must be given the edge as a track squad, since three potent Wolverine entries had to wait un- til the first day of the second semester to become eligible. These three are pole-vaulter Eeles Landstrom and miler Geert Keilstrup, both of whom just turn- ed sophomores, and Mark Booth, the Big Ten champion high-jump- er who withdrew from school for a semester. All three men have turned in performances which would have been good enough for first place. A fourth absentee, star half-miler Pete Gray was out due to illness. Dave Owen, Michigan's out- standing Big Ten shot-put titlist, who is accustomed to first places, met his superior at Lansing in the person of the NCAA champ, Kansan Bill Nieder. A solution as to which is the superior squad will come about this Saturday, when these two track giants -Michigan and Kansas - collide on the Jayhawker's home grounds. This should be one of the outstanding dual meets of re- cent years. Wallingford, the bushy-haired native of Ottawa, Ont., proved himself to be one of the top ath- letes in the Big Ten Saturday night. After helping the Maize and Blue to the sprint medley re- cord, running an uhfamiliar dis- tance, the anchor half-mile, the Michigan captain came back with only an hour's rest to run two miles in 9:16.2. the best time of his career, leaving most of the other runners more than a lap behind at the finish. grounds. This should be one of behind at the finish, QUARTET SETS WORLD MARK: Trackmen Show Potential In Relays M i c h i g a n's swimming team opened practice for the Indiana meet yesterday, knowing full wel that another loss this weekend would all but eliminate them as a major athreat in the Western Con- ference meet next month. With the squad finally at ful strength, it appears that the Wol- verines' potential should reach its peak against the Hoosiers Sat- urday. Bert and Jack Wardrop have been swimming excelently as of late; and Jack appears ready tc break another record every time he swims. Adding to this the improved per- formance of John O'Reilly in the l 220 and 440-yard events, and Fritz 3 Myers in the shorter distances, All varsity baseball players and freshman batterymen re- port to Yost Field House any afternoon at your earliest con- venience. -Ray Fisher I-MI Scores -A' BASKETBALL Phi Sigma Kappa 38, Acacia 15, Phi Kappa Sigma 36, Alpha Epsilon Pi 21 Chi Phi 39, Theta Delta Chi 24 Alpha Tau Omega 32, sigma Phi Ep- silon 27 Sigma Chi 43, Delta Tau Delta 15 Phi Gamma Delta 32, Lambda Chi Alpha 23 Delta Upsilon 37, Psi Upsilon 34 Theta Xi 25, Delta Sigma Phi 23 Beta Theta Pi 31, Zeta B'eta Tau 25 Trigon 19, Zeta Psi 16 Phi Delta Thet; 26, Chi Psi 24 Phi Kappa Tau 36, sigma Alpha Epsi- lon 34 Alpha Delta Phi 40, Tau Delta Phi 28 Phi Sigma Delta 35, Theta Chi 34 Pi Lambda Phi 32, Kappa Sigma 16 Sigma Alpha Mu 34, Phi Kappa Psi 28 Triangle 31, Phi Epsilon Pi 26 Tau Kappa Epsilon 39, Delta Chii 34 the Wolverines present a formid- able lineup for any opponent. A convincing win this weekend will restore much of the team'sj confidence, and may be just the t9nic they need for the highlight of the dual meet season, the Ohio State meet just two weeks hence. Also returning to the squad is sprinter Bobby Knox, who with his time consuming Dent school courses does not find much time to practice. Squeezing his workouts in any spare time he gets, Knox is a welcome addition to the team, and may prove a big help to them. Probably the high point of the season so far, has been the fine work of Michigan's diving trio of Charlie Bates, John Narcy and John Murphy. Under the tutelage of diving coach Bruce Harlan, Bates, who finished sixth in the Big Ten last season, is undefeated this winter and should do apprec- iably better in this year's meet.

CAMPUS INTERVIEWS ON: F EB 24 CLEVELAND (P)-Sale of the Cleveland Indians baseball club! to a new corporation for nearly four million dollars was recom- mended to the stockholders yes- terday, President Myron H. Wilson Jr., announced. HANEY RETURNS: Matmen Win Three In Comeback He said the directors, who own a large majority of Indians stock, recommended the club be sold to a corporation headed by William R. Daley, president of the invest- ment firm of Otis and Co. The Daley group has offered about $3,961,800, which would be $1,550 per share of the present company, Wilson said. The offer for the Indians is be- lieved the highest ever made for a ball club. Last year the Indians' owners re- jected an offer of about three mil- lion dollars for the club. The Indians were last sold Nov. 21, 1949, by Bill Veeck to the pres- ent company for about $2,200,000. The shares then were $100 each, but each shareholder had to put up around $300 of his own money as a loan. The loans since have been paid off. r Display your letters with this permanently-colored plastic emblem. Any 2 or 3 Greek letters. Gold on blue or blue on gold.

EACH By ED BERNREUTER Last Saturday afternoon at Yost Field House the Wolverines wrest- ing squad extended its winning streak to three by virtue of an 18- 15 edge over visiting Iowa. At the close of the first sem- ester the Michigan matmen, de- fending Big Tep champions, had been the possessors of an overall 0-3 record. However, since the re- turn of Don Haney, 147 pound Conference champion, the fortunes of the Wolverines began to change as they edged out both Purdue and Michigan State by 18-16 and 14- 12 margins respectively. Heavyweight Rupert O'Brien saved the day for Michigan, trail- ing 16-15 behind Purdue, as he took a decision and the accom- panying three points in the final match to give the Wolverines a victory. Captain Mike Rodriguez, wrest- ling at the 157 pound weight, more than provided the winning margin over Michigan State by pinning his opponent and adding five points to the team total. Both squads won four events; however, all of State's came via decisions, while the Wolverines got two extra points for Rodriguez' fall which gave them the meet. Against the Haw'keye grapplers, the men wrestlnig in the middle weight classes, namely, Haney, Rodriguez, and 167 pounder John McMahon again proved to be the mainstay of the squad, as each won his third match in a row. Another winner for the Michi- gan matmen was Lloyd Hamady, wrestling at the 137 pound weight, who pinned his man giving the squad an early lead, which was subsequently added to by the three middle weights who gained con- secutive decisions to almost clinch a victory for the Maize and Blue.' This weekend the squad journ- eys to Evanston, Illinois to meet the lowly Northwestern grapplers. Sold only at W NR'S H BOOKSTORE I star in tieaa & 316 S.
