In Annual ,
Is this the year for Michigan to
turn the swimming tables on Ohio
State?
Possibly it is, although the Wol-
verines will enter tomorrow's
meet as the underdogs. With Mich-
igan starting practice late this
year so as not bo be stale for the
OSU and Big Ten meets, the Wol-
verines got off to a slow start. The
recent losses, however, revealed a
lack of depth, a condition that has
been worsened with the recent loss
of the Wardrops. Despite these
drawbacks the Michigan men will
be "up" for the Ohio State meet
and will give the Bucks a good
fight.
With the loss of such stars as
Ford Konno and Yoshi Oyakawa;
OSU does not present as formic-&
able an opponent as it has in pre-
vious years.
Both Teams Weaker
With both teams weaker in the
free-style events than last year,
it is quite possible that the fate
of the meet will be decided in this
category. In the shorter races the
Buckeyes will pit Ben Ledger, Ed
Kawachicka, who has done the
100 in :51.7, and Jim Kimmell
against the Wolverines' Fritz
Meyers and Co-Captain John O'-
Reilly, who finished fourth in the
Big Ten meet in the 220 last year.
The Buckeyes' greatest weapon
comes in the form of the nation's
most versatile swimmer, Al Wig-
gins. Holding the world's record
in the butterfly breaststroke at
:54.7 seconds, and at one time the
record in the 200 yard individual,
Wiggins poses a threat in any
event which he swims.
In the races in which Wiggins
doesn't compete, the 'M' swimmers
should be supreme. Co-Captain

It will be a Dr. Jekyll to Mr.
Hyde transformation when the
usually sedate members of the
Michigan faculty turn into rav-
aging athletes in an attempt to
overthrow the students in the fifth
annual Student-Faculty Games
next week.
Thirteen events will be included
in the program which will be
spread over a four-day period -
Monday through Thursday-rather
than cramming everything into
the usual single night.
In this way all competitors will
be more easily accomodated as
well as making it possible for spec-
tators to view more events.
Students Defend Title
Last year the students won for
the first time and they will be
aiming for a repeat title when the
powerful squads of instructors
attempt to make good a come-
back.
Tops on the list of scheduled
events will be volleyball with 22
games slated to be played. Cham-
pion teams from all I-M divisions
represent the students against
various selected groups of faculty
members.
Another highly contested sport
will be water polo. The first match

rate at the top in the breaststroke
events, while Jim Kruthers and
Don Adamski are strong in the
backstroke, and Fritz Meyers
swims a fast individual medley.
The diving events will offer keen
competition. Both schools are load-
ed with spring-board talent. Flet-
Scher Gilders, Don Harper and
GlennWhitten represent OSU
while Charley Bates, John Narcy
and John Murphy ably represent
the Michigan squad.

Bill Murphy.
Some of the ROTC commanding
officers will enter the rifle shoot-

to down the best sharpshooters
that the students can muster.
The rest of the program includes
competition in handball, paddle-
ball, squash, table tennis, bowling,
fencing, badminton, and billiards.
According to tradition each los-
ing team will treat its vanquishers
to coffee.

To Precede
Each Event
How many Michigan sports fans
enjoy watching a winning Wol-
verine squad in action?
The answer is no doubt all of
them, but certain behavior would
indicate otherwise. One of Michi-
gan's 'winningest' teams this win-
ter has been going virtually un-
watched as it piles up triumph
after triumph.
Michigan's gymnasts, buried in
a corner of the.I-M building, have
compiled an undefeated dual-
meet record to date and yet only
about 300 spectators turn up at
each contest. Added to the impres-
sive record is one of the W6lver-
ine sports world's most perfected
athletes, Ed Gagnier.
One of Country's Best
Gagnier is also one .of the coun-
try's best and has at least twice
this year won five out of the seven
possible events in Big Ten com-
petition.
With potential drawing power
like this, there can be only one
explanation for the small crowds
--a lack of spectator interest in
the sport caused by a lack of
knowledge.
Michigan's energetic gymnastic
coach Newt Loken thinks he has
an answer to this problem, or at
least a way to increase his sport's
attractiveness to the campus. He
has proposed a scheme which he
will , se in the last gymnastics
meet of the season with Wisconsin
which will take place Saturday at
4:15 in the I-M gym.
Explanation
Preceding most of the' seven
events, Loken is going to press two
of his freshmen into service to
demonstrate the different move-
ments- of the gymnasts' routines.
At the same time Loken will be
on the public address system ex-
plaining each demonstration.
r In other words, every fan who
shows up at the meet will be given
an explained rundown of what's
going to happen before hand. He
will therefore have a much great-
er understanding of what is
taking place.
Since this is the last dual-meet
of the season and the Wolverines
are as yet undefeated, a victory
will give them their first perfect
string since 1950. The added sup-
port of a thousand more fans will
centainly aid their cause.
