J San Francisco, Patterson Highlight Full Sports Year Special To The Daily COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.- Michigan's hockey team launched the new WIHL season on a sour note last night, bowing to Colo- ado College, 5-4,.in a rough-and- tumble contest. The two teams will meet again tonight for the final time this season. A sensational performance was turned in Wolverine goalie Lorne Howes, despite the fact that his kteam lost. He managed 47 saves, as compared to only 17 by CC'sa netminder, Howard Viger. The final three scores were made by the Blue, as they bounced back from a 5-1 deficit to make it a close contest throughout the third period. Neil McDonald scored twice for! the visitors, his first coming at 17:30 of the second period when .Dick Dunnigan shot from the boards and the puck hit McDon- ald's stick and was deflected in. Hayton from Buchanan . Sophomore Barrie Hayton was impressive in netting score num- 'ber three a minute and a half later, taking a pass from Neil Buchanan at the blue line and] blasting the disc into the low right corner of the cage. Only good news of the evening' for the Wolverines was that soph- omore John Hutton was declared1 'eligible for competition and took part in the game. There had been some question of the eligibility of= Hutton. Colorado Tough Michigan has clever been able tol get better than a split against ColoradoY and has usually been. under par in the opening game. Rough play marked the entire night's performance, and severall high-sticking penalties were hand- ed out. In addition, Michigan defenseman Bob Schiller was hit with a 10-minute misconduct rep- rimand. Howes was the standout of the game, and every one of the op- ponents' goals came when his team was shorthanded, or on a close or rebound shot.

SPORT SHORTS By The Associated Press Although picking winners is a risky business at a time when touring college basketball teams are facing top-flight competition almost every night, the Kansas Jayhawks are a solid first choice in the second weekly Associated Press ranking poll of the season. Kansas drew the first place votes of 68 of the 93 sports writers and broadcasters participating in the poll. That gave the Jayhawks 864 points under the usual scoring system of 10 for first, 9 for sec- ond, etc. Kansas Takes Two Paced by 7-foot Wilt Chamber- lain, Kansas took two impressive decisions from Washington last week. 77-63 and 92-78, to make it fou. straight for the season.

(1P)-Ten- nessee's Bowden Wyatt, who says this year's undefeated-untied rec- ord was not his best coaching ef- fort, yesterday was named college football's coach of the year. In the 22nd annual Scripps- Howard poll of members of the American Football Coaches Assn., Wyatt received 171 first place votes to 110 for Forest Evashevski of Iowa's Big Ten champions. On a 5-3-1 point basis, Wyatt got 1,229 points to 889 for Evashev- ski. Lou Little of Columbia was third and Bud Wilkinson of Okla- homa, 1949 coach of the year, was fourth. Wyatt, whose Tennessee team won the Southeastern Conference championship and meets Baylor in the Sugar Bowl at New Orleans Jan. 1, said the hard work of his assistants and his players enabled him to win the award. But he said he thought he ac- tually did a better coaching job in 1955 when he took over a badly disorganized Tennessee squad and tutored it to a fine 6-3-1 season. By BOB BOLTON It is probably a very good thing that the Michigan track team has! over two months before the Con- ference indoor championships are run in Columbus.E The Wolverine cindermen made their first public appearance before a sparse crowd at Yost Field House last night in the annual intra-! squad Christmas track meet and virtually all performances were well below Big Ten standards. Coach Don Canham felt that only seven men turned in better than average exhibitions. The big bouquet werit to Cap- tain Dave Owen. For the second straight week the powerful senior sent the shot over 57'. This mark of 57' is over six feet better than Owen was throwing at this time last year. The great improvement is mostly due to the fact that he has been practicing since September while last season he did not start until after foot- ball season. Helmar Dollwet, the junior from the Saar, was the meet's only double winner. Dollwet claimed a first in the mile in 4:25.00 and an- other in the mile and one-half with a 7:01.00 clocking. In the mile Dollwet jumped to an early lead at the gun and in- creased it steadily finally winning by around 50 yards. Sophomore Jack Green set the early pace in the mile and one- half event with Dollwet hanging about two yards back. On the sixth lap Green began to tire and the smooth running German sprinted ahead. By the 12th and final lap Doll- wet had passed several of the trailing runners and Greene had fallen to fourth place. Among the other men who Can- ham complimented on last night's efforts were sophomores John Magnuson, Pete Stanger, Milt Robinson, Ernie Simms and jun- ior Robin Varian. Magnuson turned in a time of :6.5 in the 60 yd. dash while Stanger ran well in the hurdles. Robinson and Simms pushed Varian to a 1:59.3 effort in the 880 yd. run, finishing second and third respectively. Part of the team's relatively un- impressive performance yesterdayI was due to the fact that several veterans were absent or hampered with injury. Among these were, quarter-milers Dick Flodin and Bob Rudesill and hurdler Fred Potter. Over the Christmas vacatio n several members of the squadt th1 run in Chicago on Dec. 29 at the Fourth Annual Holiday Track Meet sponsored by the University of Chicago.

Teams visit odd-shaped gymnasiums, hooting crowds, long road trips. This didn't bother the Phil Woolpert-coached Dons, who were invincible. Led by Bill Russell, a 6'10" center, San Francisco couldn't be stopped. September 27-The end of the road for The Babe. Universally proclaimed as the greatest woman athlete of the century, Mildred Didricksen Zaharias finally fell victim to her most formidable opponent-cancer. October 8-Don Larsen pitches first World; Series perfect game. The batter was Dale Mitchell, a dangerous, if aging pinch-hitter. The ball zoomed plateward. Mit- chell looked. The umpire motioned with his right hand. 27 batters . . . all retired. Per- fect. One of those stories with an odd twist. Larsen, 27 years old, was better than some, worse than others during his otherwise medi- ocre career. November 30-Floyd Patterson becomes new king of the heavy- weights. It was Young Floyd against Ancient Archie Moore at Chicago that night. The title had bean vacated by Rocky Mar- ciano, who retired from the ring on April 27. The fifth round ...Patterson found the mark with a wildleft hook, and the end was in sight for Moore. Only 21 years old, Patter- son should give zest to a sport which badly needs it. December 7 - Russia clinches "unofficial team victory" at Mel- bourne. It was a bitter pill to swallow for the United States. Russia, after conceding points to the Americans in track and field, proceeded to pile up a record- breaking total in the so-called minor sports. Uncle Sam, used to an easy time of it in Olympic competition, was forced to relinquish its worldwide athletic supremacy, for four years, at least. wolverine Cagers Seek Victory over Kent State By DON DRESCHER In their fifth start of the sea- son, the Michigan basketball squad will oppose Kent State at 8:00 p.m. tonight at the Yost field house. The Wolverines go into tonight's encounter with a record of two wins and two losses. The Kent State squad has a slight edge in experience with six games already behind it. 'M' Has Height Advantage Although Michigan will have an advantage in height, the Kent State team is not small. The prob- able starting lineup for the Golden Flashes will be: center, Larry Ed- munds (6'5"); forwards, Ron Birt (6'3") and Bill Benes (6'2"); and at guards Jim Gorsline (6'2") and Bill Raybuck (6'2"). Birt, a junior, promises to be one of the key men in the visitor's at- tack. He has an accurate shot from both in court and out and is a good rebounder. They will also count heavily on Gorsline who was one of the leading scorers for the Golden Flashes last year. Five Juniors Start The Kent Staters are a young ball club. The entire first squad is composed of underclassmen with the first string being comprised of five juniors. Last year coach Dave McDowell's squad placed fifth in the Mid- American conference. This is Kent State's first encounter with a Big Ten opponent. Admission to the game is free for students who present an I-D card. _______ ___FOR CHRISTMAS - .::1L*4 FOUNTAIN PENS OFFICE FURNITURE TYPEWRITERS CALENDARS sj 4, .0 Bre/CssTypewriters All makes, Portable Brief Cases and Standard.

Carolina St. ILI IN W-W 7A.4w"ft.'.-NW WOW 19W WI--jW TRAW 7J."W I- .A I By CARL RISEMAN The Michigan swimming team will face its initial test of the sea- son when it plays host to North Carolina-State on January 2 and to the Big Ten Relays on Januaryt 5. North Carolina State is rankedt as one of the top swimming squads in the nation. Last year they fin- ished fifth in the NCAA swimming meet and boast many returning lettermen.- The Big Ten Relays will include swimming teams from Michigan State, North Carolina State, Iowa State, Ohio State, Kenyon College, and Michigan. Wisconsin and In- diana also are probable entries. Wolf pack Undefeated The North Carolina State Wolf- pack holds a 2-0 record thus far this year with smashing victories over South Carolina and Duke, and hopes to retain its Atlantic Coast Conference championship which it shared with North Caro- lina last year. Dick Fadgen, Dave McIntyre,4 and Frank Nauss are the stars of the squad, and rank with the best swimmers in collegiate competi- tion. Dick Fadgen is the NCAA ,' champion in the 200-yard breast stroke and 200-yard butterfly, the national AAU indoor and outdoor breast stroke champion and win- ner of seven national individual championships. « _ Fadgen was also first alternate on the Olympic team in breast stroke competition. Dave McIntyre made the first team AAU All-America in the 100- yard free style, and is holder of the school records of :22.5 for the 50 and :49.7 for the 100. The Big Ten record for the 50 is :22.1 and :49.5-for the 100. Frank Nauss placed fourth in the NCAA and national AAU meets in the 440. 'M' Prospects Untested The status of the Michigan squad is uncertain at present. Cy Hop- kins and Dick Mehl are excellent sophomore prospects but are un- tested in collegiate meets. Senior Fritz Meyers has been swimming exceptionally well in practice. However, Coach Stager will not have his team at full strength until the second semester. Some of the swimmers are still ineligible. Second Annual Meet This will be the second annual Big Ten Relays. Last year, MSU was the host. In accordance with Big Ten rules, there will be no team scores. Michigan State and Ohio State will present fairly strong teams. Iowa State should not be as strong as it was last year, since it lost a number of lettermen through graduation.
