Childs Gets Chance Sophomore Ross Childs will thus see his first action in a Michigan1 uniform as he takes charge of the1 nets for the Wolverines.. Pulled tendons in both the in- side and outside parts of Howes' left ankle have not healed as was. hoped, despite the fact that the star goalie has been wearing a' wooden protective guard in prac- tice. Michigan State, which has won one and lost five in league com- petition thus far, is sparked by aI high-scoring veteran center, Rossi Parke, who last season netted 151 goals and '21 assists for 36 points, and a fine new goalie, sophomore4 Joe Selinger.

I LORNE HOWES ... sidelined ROSS CHILDS ... gets big chance MEET BADGERS FRIDAY: Gymnasts To Open Big Ten Season (*l By AL JONES The first two dual meets of the season could well be the most important for the Wolverine gymnasts. Coach Newt Loken and his charges open their 1957 Big Ten schedule this Friday and Satur- day at+ Wisconsin and Minnesota respectively, when they will be the guests of the Badgers and Goph- ers in dual meets. Perfect Record The Michigan gymnasts will be guarding a perfect dual meet rec- ord that they achieved last sea- son, when they went undefeated in single competition. This cam- paign was highlighted by a one- point victory over Illinois, thej gymnastic powerhouse of the Conference. The dual meets have no bear- ing in the selection of the Con- ference titlist, which is decided in the Big Ten meet near the end of the season: Last year the Wolverines placed second to the refreshed Illini. Based on the Midwest Open! meet early in December of last' year, one sees little reason for Loken to fear the Minnesota and Wisconsin meets this weekend. Michigan placed fourth, behind Illinois, Florida State and Iowa, while their weekend opponents were well down the line. Only Top Men Score Loken points out, however, that in a meet of the proportions of the Midwest Open, only the top men score points. All of Michi- gan's points were counted by co- captains Nick Wiese and Wayne Warren and sophomores Ed Cole and Jim Hayslett. On the otner hand, Loken em- phasizes, in dual meet competi- tion good team depth is necessary for victory. This explains Michi- gan's victory over Illinois last year, and how the Illini could turn around and completely dom- inate the Conference meet, since their top men were superior to those of the other schools. Loken rates the Minnesota andj Wisconsin meets as contests of ' great cruciality to the preserva- tion of the unbeaten string due to the absence of Ed Gagnier from competition until the sec- ond semester. Gagnier Working Out Back from the Olympics since the middle of December, Gagnier has been working out with the team. but won't be eligible for competition until after these two meets. Loken rests his hopes for vic- tory on the performance of the team as a whole. The four men that placed in the Midwest Open should do exceptionally well, i while the work of many others, including Dfck Kimball, Frank Newmani Jack Eckle and Chuck Clarkson, has been improving quickly. The team is running off pre- paratory meets, one last night, and one this afternoon, to create the atmosphere of dual meet com- petition, Loken's reaction to yes- terday's meet was "quite satis- factory."

Chancellor Clark Kerr of the University of California term- ed it a step toward professional- ism. Yesterday President Robert Gor- don Sproul of California, whose authority extends over both the Berkeley and UCLA campuses, in- dicated he favors a plan of special assistance only during the com- petitive playing seasons, Dr. Wallace Sterling, Stanford president, said: "We will have to re-examine the effect of confer- ence action on Stanford's partici- pation in intercollegiate athlet- ics." Strand 'Reluctant' President A. L. Strand of Ore- gon State admitted he "went along reluctantly" with the new plan. President O. Meredith Wilson of Oregon said his school's approval was given on "only general out- lines of the program." President D. R. Theophillus of Idaho declared: "The principles of the new financial code are sound-but the program will be difficult to develop." The conference must face those difficulties May 19-23 at Spokane, Wash., when it meets to work out details.

Eight global bombers, powered by mighty turbojets, recently set non- stop records in 16,000- to 17,000-mile flights described as a "routine training mission to demonstrate the capability of the B-52 and the men who fly it". Flying continuously for as long as 321 hours, the mammoth aircraft - each powered by eight Pratt & Whitney Aircraft J-57 turbo- jets--- winged northward from air bases in California and Maine, over Thule, Greenland, continued to the North Pole, then returned by way of Anchorage, Alaska, to land in San Francisco, Baltimore, or Lime- stone, Maine. During this spectacular top-of-the-world mission, temperatures as low as 65 degrees below zero were encountered, speeds approached 700 miles per hour, altitudes in excess of 35,000 feet were maintained, and each Boeing B-52 was refueled in mid-air several times.
