THE MICRIGAN DAII, Ift AL Aft A&W.- -- u;'y .ia Va a, Vt1 a L aA -LiAMYTon .E I Switzer, n r 1 rl riumph; Play Again Tonight; Cage, Gym, Track Teams Here; atmen A ray Action Slated For Barron In CaeTilt By PETE KASS The Michigan cagers will get the chance tonight to end their six game Conference losing streak right where it started when they face Wisconsin in Yost fieldhouse at 8 p.m. Jim Barron is expected to see prolonged action for the first time in almost two seasons and may even break into the starting five. Barron's knee has been progressing and with the added confidence, he has shown the ability to drive for the hoop with some, of his old skill. Coach Bill Perigo said that with Barron in the lineup the team seems to function like a real ball club because he has the real "know-how" to make the squad move. The Badgers toppled the Wol- rverines from the cagers' early- season second-place rung with a 69-58 victory at Madison. The Wolverines were sailing along on the crest of a three-game winning streak until they were shocked into reality by the fastrmoving Badgers. Since then th Big Ten cam- paign has held nothing but set- backs for 12erigo's crew. Miller, Mueller Head Badgers The visitors' hurrying offense is paced by Dick Miller and Curt Mueller. Miller at 6'3" tops the Wisconsin scoring list with a 19.6 per-game clip, while Mueller leads the-squad in rebounding by a wide margin and is second in point pro- duction. Dick Jorgensen is Miller's running mate at guard while Bob Litzow teams with Mueller at for- ward and John Parker fills the center slot. The Wolverines will counter with big Ron Kramer, who is currently moving at 20.6 point average pace. Captain Tom Jorgensen will prob- ably start at one of the guard spots with Pete Tillotson and Randy Tarrier operating from the f or- wards; Perigo expects a lot of men to see action. The Wolverines need this game~ quite badly to keep from slipping into ninth place in the Conference standings. The Badgers rest a half game behind the cagers and are eager to vacate the position. Be-. sides the threat of slipping deeper into the second division, the Wol- verines must win three of their remaining four contests to finish at the break-even mark. Loken's Men' Aim To Cool Hot Badgers By JOHN LaSAGE T Grapplers Visit Ohio State; Rodriguez Receives Honor -aiy--Jere Sweeney MICHIGAN'S ED SWITZER is shown slapping home one of his five goals in the Wolverines' 5-2 win over Montreal last night at the Coliseum. Helpless against Switzer's onslaught is the Cara- bins' workhorse goalie, Bob Bleau. McDonald Collects Four Assists, Dunnigfan Three Coach Newt Loken's undefeated gymnasts will attempt to go over the final hurdle in their dual-meel schedule when they meet Wiscon- sin today in the I-M Building at 4 p.m. A very entertaining afternoon is in line for the fans in attendance. Besides watching the -Wolverines go after their first undefeated campaign since 1950, Coach Loken has some very interesting "extras" lined up. Despite the fact that gymnastics is one of the most interesting sports to watch, many fans do not understand the various exercises which the athletes go through. Be- cause of this, Coach Loken will have two of - his freshmen go through exercises on the various apparatuses immediately preceding each event. Loken, an expert who has writ- ten several books on gymnastics, will add commentary for the fans' concerning the different twists and turns being performed. "main business" of the day as far as. the Wolverines are concerned. Coach Dean Mory will bring his Madison athletes into town sport- ing only a 4-4 slate in dual compe- tition. The Wolverines aren't overlook- ing the fact that those four tri- umphs have been recorded in the last five meets.

Pace will make his Ann Arbor debut as a sprinter this afternoon at Yost Field House as the Wolverines play host to Ohio State, Western Michigan and Mar- quette. #-" Stiff Competition in Store For Wolverine *T1raekmen By DAVE RORABACHER Michigan's rebounding wrestling squad will be heavily favored to down Ohio State's Buckeyes when the two teams clash this afternoon at Columbus. The Buckeye grapplers, although full of potential, are reported to be in rather poor condition physically. They are expected to pose their most serious threat in the heavy- weight division where Ted Rader and star gridder James Parker, both fine men, will be ready to go pending Coach Casey Fredericks' call. Wolverine 147 pounder Don Haney will be missing from today's match due to an ankle injury, the same hindrance which kept him from competing against Toledo. However, the grappling star is expected to be sufficiently recover- ed to defend his Big Ten title next weekend. Hirt to Replace Haney Coach Cliff Keen plans to move Ties Record RALEIGH, N. C. (P)-Dave Sime of Duke tied the world indoor record of :06.1 for the 60-yard dash in the Atlantic Coast Conference indoor games Friday night. Frank Hirt up to replace Haney and insert Jack Porter to fill Hirt's vacated 137 pound spot. At 167 pounds John McMahon, conqueror of two Big Ten cham- pions, will face sophomore Buckeye Edward Nicholson as he attempts to continue his unbeaten string. In tuning up for the defense of his conference 157 pound crown, Captain Mike Rodriguez will be pitted against OSU's Gene Weiss, a junior who wrestled at 167 last season. The remainder of the Michigan team will be: 123--Charlie Ander- son; 130-Dan Deppe; 177-Jack Marchello; 191 and Hvy.-Steve Zervas and Tom Krause (unde- cided),. Keen is viewing today's meet merely as a conditioner for next week's Big Ten Tournament. This is due to the fact that the outcome has no bearing on the placenent in the conference standings. (continued from page 1). Aside from Switzer's goals, Bleau treated the 3,000 partisan Michi- gan fans to one of the most brilli..- ant exhibitions of goal-tending they will ever see. Cheers reward- ed' the Montreal wizard for many of his incredible total of 50 saves. Bleau's efforts ran the gamut from leaping catches of high shots to falling on blistering drives at the split second that they whizzed Ed's Night FIRST PERIOD: Scoring: 1- Michigan, Switzer (McDonald, Dunnigan) 2:11; 1-Montreal, Girad (Bedard) 14:43.

Michigan's passing was about as sharp as ever; its shooting was excellent. But only Switzer could find the formula for crossing up the overworked goalie. Having arrived by train at 5:30 yesterday afternoon, Montreal had to do most of its warming up dur- ing the first period. Its defense was especially weak with 25 plays' going to Bleau before being brok- en up. Switzer got Michigan off to the lead at 2:11 when he pounded the third of a series of rebounds off Bleau into the net. At 14:32 Montreal tied the score on one of its rather infrequent first stanza drives into the Wolverine zone. Mathieu Girard sent the puck flying from 20 feet out over Michigan's goal-defender Lorne Howes' outstretched glove. Early in the final stanza Switzer put the Wolverines ahead again on a pass from McDonald, but the Carabins stayed in the game with Norm Bradley's rebound score at 7:09. The stage was set for Switzer to burst the game open with three goals in less than three minutes, beginning at 13:51. Plays that were thwarted earlier were the master of tired goalie Bleau.

Only a loss to Illinois has blotted their late-season splurge, and the Badgers will still be smarting from that 68-44 pasting when they meet Loken's men, the only team to hand the Illini a setback this year. Leading Badger point-maker has been Jimmy Murphy who has scored several first-places in the parallel bars and sidb horse this year. Backing him up will be Lee Ger- aldson who owns two first places on the trampoline and three tumb- ling triumphs. Both of these vet- eran perforners are lettermen. Flashy Ed Gagnier has paced the Wolverines this season. The Windsor, Ontario, sophomore has copped 20 first places in six meets, or an average of three firsts per meet. He has piled up a total of 175 points.

MAL AG A PIPES "Sweet from the First Pipeful"A Outstanding track talent won't be a Michigan monopoly at this afternoon's quadrangular meet be- ginning at 1 p.m. at Yost Field House. Although the Wolverines will be favored to outscore their oppon- ents from Ohio State, ,Western Michigan and Marquette, they face stiff competition in most of today's events. This is their last warmup for next week's Big Ten Cham- pionship Meet at East Lansing. Some of the greatest challenges to Michigan's domination of the meet will be in the short distance races. Sprinters Jim Pace and Bob Brown and hurdlers Tom Hen- dricks and Brendon O'Reilly are opposed by an array of highly- rated visiting thinclads. Having defeated Illinois' Abe Woodson last week, Ohio State's Roger Houck appears as one of the men to beat in the dashes. John Hudson, Western Michigan's first- placer in the Michigan State Re- lays and Michigan AAU Meet, also outranks the steadily-improving, upset-minded Pace and Brown. Formidable Hurdlers O'Reilly in high hurdles and low-hurdler Hendricks will have formidable competition from Buck- eyes Houck and Lee Williams and Marquette's Glen Goebel. Hendricks and Williams will also be the leading contenders in the broad jump. The Wolverines' star will be haid-pressed to top Willi- ams, whose best effort this year has been a leap of 22'. Coach Don Canham's decision not to use Captain Ron Walling- ford in the two-mile race may equalize that event. Besides Wol- verines Geert Keilstrup and Hal- mar Dollwet, Dave Duffett of Mar- quette and Bill Pyle of Western Michigan are capable of covering the distance faster than 9:40. Pete Gray, who'holds the Field House record of 1-52.8 in the 880 yard run, should finish ahead of leading rivals Tom Lehmkuhl of Marquette, Byron Skinner of West- ern Michigan, Jack Blackburn of Ohio State and teammate Robin Varian. Bob Rudesill and Dick Flodin in the 440, Laird Sloan in the 600 andj Gray and Varian in the 1000 are indications of Michigan's power in the other middle-distance races. Wallingford Favored Holding this season's second; best conference time (4:14.6) in3 the mile,.

George Gluppe will join the more experienced Brown, Flodin and Rudesill in the event. Except for the broad jump, the field events will have Michigan men in favorite roles. Shot-putter Dave Owen, high jumpers O'Reilly and Mark Booth and pole vaulters Eeles Landstrom and Bob Apple- man are among the top Big Ten performers so far this season. To- day's competition will probably not be of that caliber. I-1 Relays, The finals in the Intramural Relays will be run off this afteinoon during the quadrang- ular track meet which begins at 1 p.m. at Yost Field House. The top four teams in the fraternity, residence halls and independent divisions will run to determine the respective championships. MIKE RODRIGUEZ, Michigan's grappling captain, is an All-Amer- lean, it was learned yesterday. The agile junior, defending Big 4Teni champion and one of -the finest wrestlers in college competi- tion, was picked as the 157-pound representative on the mid-season All-America'n College Wrestling Team. Don Haney, Wolverine 147 poun4er, was elected to the third team. Selections are made by college wrestling coaches throughout the nation. bIsUS ON TH cAMPUt r. Donald llig, Super.
