At the time, they held an eight- PERSON ABLE YOUNG MAN wanted to work at WILD'S point advantage over Michigan, and it held up to the end on Sat- urday as they trimmed the game Wolverines, 87-79. Coach Gus Stager said he was pleased with the team's perform- ance, especially on Saturday, a night which saw several "best" performances by his men. NCAA Comes Next There is no doubt that State's depth was its main asset. The NCAA Championshisp on March 28-29-30 at Chapel Hill, N.C., should find Michigan making a much stronger showing. The national competition will be preceded by an exhibition with the Indianapolis Athletic Club on March 23 here. Things started happening fast for the Spartans. On Friday aft- ernoon, they began competition ig Ten Meet by placing four men in the finals* of the 200-yd. butterfly event, and this seemed to provide a real buoyj for their morale. For the rest of the afternoon, they failed to get % finalist in only one event, the cne-meter diving, placing three in the 50-yd. free- style, two. in the 200-yd. individual medley, and one each in the 200- yd. backstroke. 220-yd. freestyle and 100-yd. breaststroke. 'M' Holds Edge Their relay team came through with flying colors, too, and this brought them 14 points alone. Michigan has won 16 Confer- ence swimming titles, and leads in this * department. Ohio State, which failed to be tops for the first time since Michigan won in 1948, has 12. Until this year, no one except' the Wolverines and Buckeyes had won the cnampionship s ce 1930. Spring is in the air so is your need for a Blended Hair Cut. 715 N. University -Courtesy of Gus Miller PINNING HOLD-Wolverine wrestling captain Mike Rodriguez nears his 157-lb.

Illini Gymnasts Down Strong 'M' Title Surge GUS STAGER ... pleased with team I By A LJONES The Michigan gymnastics team was a fourth place club on paper before the Big Ten meet last weekend, but they emerged as the "almost" team before Saturday afternoon was over. Outpointing Michigan State and Iowa, teams they had fallen to during the regular season by a terrific margin, .the Wolverines gave Illinois the closest scare they have experienced in the past few years. Abie Grossfeld, the Illinois Olympian who was outstanding Saturday, confided to Wolverine Coach Newt Loken and Ed Gag- nier, the top Michigan gymnast, that Illini Coach Charles Pond had told his men that they would have to get out there and work their hardest if they wanted to gain their eighth straight cham- pionship. Slight Edge Illinois had only a slight edge after Friday. The score from the All-around event was knotted at 20-20 for the two squads, and Illi- nois had a 19-17 edge in men qua- lified for the finals. The differ- ence in the meet came in the great depth that Illinois pos- sesses. The men from Champaign were able to place Grossfeld and Don Tonry high in almost every event, besides having tumblers like Frank Hailand and Mike Karon, who added valuable points in the last event, making the Illini mar- gin 1431/2 to 111/2 for Michigan. Gagnier was the outstanding Wolverine, with two first places as has been the case in every meet both this season and last, and he shared most of the meet honors with Illinois' Grossfeld, and Iowa's Sam Bailie. Although these three took all but two of the firsts, the whole fieldtwas much strong- er than usual this year. Two other Michigan men showed themselves off as top Big Ten gymnasts, as they held their own in the rugged competition. Both sophomores, Ed Cole and Jim Hayslett will have plenty of chance in the future to gain more honors. Cole is the new Big Ten tram- poline champion, While Hayslett battled for honors in five of the seven events, and earned himself a third in the parallel bars, plus a valuable fifth in the all-around. End Careers Three Wolverine seniors ended their career as gymnasts, all turn- ing in fine performances. Co-cap- tatins Nick Wiese and Wayne Warren were outstanding in all of their events, with Wiese gaining a fourth place tie in the flying rings. Bob Armstrong, a side horse man, also ended his tenure as a Wolverine. He qualified fifth in that event Friday with a fine rou- tine, but fell to ninth in the finals. Some of the Michigan men will be accompanying Loken to Anna- polis in two weeks to take a try at NCAA honors. If Gagnier and Cole are in their best form they should bring home a few more championships. 4 Two-Team Conference Wrestling Meet Dominated by Balanced Minnesota Squad March 14 . .. to interview men expecting degrees in ,A Chemical, Mechanical, Industrial, Elec- trical and Civil Engineering and students with majors in Chemistry and Account- ing and those with Sales interests.

EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITIES IN PAPER INDUSTRY By DAVE LYON Team depth enabled Minne- sota's wrestling squad to edge Michigan by one point, 55-54, and win its first Big Ten mat title in 16 years last Friday and Saturday at Columbus. i I USED BOOKS - Only one Gopher grappler cap- tured a Conference weight crown, but Minnesota scored meet points in six of the eight weight divisions to offset the outstanding efforts of Wolverine champions Max Pearson at 130 pounds, and Mike Rodriguez at 157. Under the Conference scoring system of 10 points for first, sev- en for second, four for third, and two for fourth in each weight, Minnesota outscored Michigan, 21-7, in runnerup points. This margin proved just enough to offset the Wolverines' 20-10 first place and 19-16 miscellane- ous point advantages. The two teams tied, 8-8, in third and fourth place meet points. On the basis of r e l a t i v e strengths of the Big Ten matmen during dual meet competition, the Conference meet was not sup- posed to develop into the two- team race it turned out to be. Besides Michigan and Minne- sota, three squads - Michigan State, Illinois and Iowa - were rated title contenders. Although they won their share of weight di- vision championships, Iowa and Illinois lacked the third and fourth place points needed to win, finishing with 39 and 37 points respectively. One of the majior disappoint- ments of the weekend's activity at Ohio State's St. John Arena was Michigan State's weak show- ing. NCAA HOCKEY PLAYOFFS: Clarkson, Harvard Represent East -Bob Marshall's a -w 1 _ By BRUCE BENNETT Word arrived in the Michigan hockey camp yesterday that the Eastern representatives in the NCAA tournament at Colorado Springs, Colo., this week will be Clarkson College and Harvard.

In fact, Coach Bill Harrison' s Knights have lost only five games in their last 65 over a three year span. Clarkson's offense, which has been averaging better than six goals a game, is led by Eddie Rowe, one of the top collegians in the East. The Knight's defense has held the opposition to only two goals a game. High Scorer Should they meet Harvard, the Wolverines would come up against the top scorer in the East, Bob Cleary. The Crimson star is the only college player to better 30 goals this season and has more than 70 total points. Meanwhile Coach Vic Heyliger put his Wolverines through a light workout at the Coliseum yes- terday afternoon. The team will work out again this afternoon and will fly by chartered plane to Col- orado Springs tomorrow. Heyliger expressed satisfaction with the team's performance against Michigan Tech over the weekend, noting especially the 12 goals scored upon the Huskie's Bob McManus, one of the league's better goalies.
