The greatest thrill in any sport
is a close victory, and it was such
a success that remains prominent
in the memory of Michigan's gym-
nastic co-captain Wayne Warren.
The meet that he remembers
was Michigan's 57-55, victory over
Illinois last winter, the first and
only defeat that the Illini suffered

Predicts Good Season
Warren is very optimistic about
this year's team, but adds that "I

have a real strong team."
One thing that he reallyi
