Michigan's slumping basketball
squad continued its downward
trend by dropping two of three
games played during the between -
semesters break.
Bill Perigo's quintet bowed to
two Big Ten foes, Iowa and Mi-
chigan State, and won a non-Con-
ference tilt from Washington of
St. Louis.
3-4 Conference Mark
The Wolverines, consequently,
went into last night's battle at
Indiana with a 3-4 Conference
record and an 8-7 overall' mark.
They are tied for sixth place in
the Big Ten with the Hoosiers;
Illinois leads the pack with a per-
fect 6-0 mark.'
Michigan played well in a na-
tionally-televised game against
Iowa, here, Jan. 21, but the Hawk-
eyes played brilliantly to bounce
the hosts, 78-67.
Iowa center Bill Logan led the
scoring with 28 points, and was
supplemented by Bill Schoof's 22
tallies. Carl "Sugar" Cain, a pre-
season all-American choice, scored

14 points, but thrilled the 6,500
spectators with his amazing versa-
tility.
Ron Kramer led the losers with
23 points, but his efforts were not
enough to offset the red-hot visi-
tors, who hit on over 50 per cent
of the attempts from the floor.
Michigan played its final non-
Conference foe of the season, Feb.
4, when it clashed with spirited
Washington at Yost Field House.
The hosts were far from im-
presive, yet managed to stop the
Bears by an 81-66 count.
Kramer Scores 28
Kramer dumped 28 p o i n t s
through the hoop to tie his Yost
Field House record for a Michigan
player.
The high-scoring center had to
concede star billing to Julius Mc-
Coy last Monday when the Wol-
verines lost an away game to
Michigan State, 86-76. McCoy,
second leading scorer in the Big
Ten and one of the highest in
the country, scorched the nets for
39 points.

By JOHN LaSAGE
Husky Chico San Antonio came
a long distance to captain the
1956 Michigan gymnastics team.
Born in Providence, Rhode Is-
land, the Wolverine captain is
now in his third year of varsity
competition. Since San Antonio
is a first-semester senior, this will
be his last year of competition.
Before beginning his career at
Michigan, San Antonio was quite
a "world traveler," serving in the
Navy. While stationed in Trini-
dad the muscular gymnast taught
courses in judo and weightlifting.
Competed With Turners
"I first became interested in
gymnastics in high school," re-
marks San Antonio, "and I also
competed with the Providence
Turners."
The Providence Turners are a
member of the American Turners,
an organization which first in-
troduced gymnastics in the United
States and was instrumental in
popularizing the sport.
San Antonio completed his high
school career by scoring more
points than any other gymnast, a
school record which still stands.
"Although we didn't have any
competitive meets," San Antonio
says, "we did perform in differ-
ent events, being judged on a point
basis."

"I've been interested in gym-
nastics for a long time, but my
high school coach, Mr. Fred Al-
len, was responsible for getting
me to go out for the team," San
Antonio confides. "I didn't think
I was good enough to make any
team but his encouragement and
help gave me the push I really
needed."
The Providence native improved
so steadily that he was soon repre-
senting his home town in A.A.U.
meets at Boston, taking several
places.
After his three year stitch in
the Navy, San Antonio decided, on
a college creer, and chose Mi-
chigan.
'Not Lower Than Third'
Naturally, as captain, San An-
tonio has a few remarks concern-
ing this year's squad. "I think
we should do better than last
year's team and shouldn't finish
any lower than third."
San Antonio is a specialist on
the parallel bars, which is his
favorite event. This is evidenced
by his fifth place finish in the
Big Ten Meet last year.
The physical education major
moved to Ann Arbor in 1952, after
marrying a hometown sweetheart.
He is now the proud father of a
two-year-old daughter.
