Wisconsin then took the lead for the last time 40-39, but two quick baskets and a frge throw gave the lead back to Michigan' For the 'next five minutes the teams traded baskets until Michi- gan gained what seemed like a comfortable lead for/this game of 54-48 at the 11:50 mark. Then two baskets by Walter Holt and a set shot by Bob Litzow knotted the game up for the fifth time during the night, at 10:36. Michigan then proceeded to pour in six straight points on a basket and two free throws by Terry Miller. k After this Michigan was never headed as the Badgers in an effort to get the ball, continuously fouled the Wolverines who proved to be deadly at the foul line. Pete Tillotson and Burton took scoring honors for the Wolverines with 19 points each. Tillotson who, scored only six points in the first half* added 13 'in the second, mainly on set shots which helped break Wisconsin's zone defense. Wisconsin played a slow deliber- ate type game, taking shots only when there was an opening. Lit- sow and Holt with 22 and 17 points respectively were high men for them. The Wolverines controlled the backboards 47-34, with George Lee grabbing 17, to lead in the depart- ment. Lee also hit for 15 points.

I Basketball Games Determine Pace-Setters $y GARY GUSSIN Michigan's gymnastic victory over Michigan State, 61%-502, last Friday affirmed what has been known since the beginning of the season--that the Wolverine's tal- ent-laden squad would be a power in the Big Ten this year. .Ed Gagnier, team captain and Big Ten all-events champion, was still out with a chest injury, but the squad failed to win or tie for first in only two of the seven events. Ed Cole, Conference cham- pion trampolinist, was sidelined by a sprained ankle, but Michigan's trampolinists took the first three places in their event, as usual. Hayslett Performs Well Jim Hayslett was the biggest contributor to the Wolverine cause, taking a first in the free exercise, trying for two more in the side horse and in tumbling and fin- ished third on the parallel bars. Hayslett's performance was per- haps the most encouraging feature of the meet. Though the blond gymnast finished fourth in total points in last year's Big Ten meet, he had taken firsts in only four events in the Wolverines' three previous meets this winter. . Record Not Indicative This reason might be good for any other g'ymnast, but compared to his showing in the Michigan State encounter, it is hardly in- dicative of his real abilities. Coach Newt Loken expressed the hope that at last Hayslett might be "coming into his own," as his only explanation for his sudden improvement shown against ,the Spartans. The gymnast himself could not pin-point the difference between Friday's performance and previous showings either. A factor that Hayslett did men- tion was a longer practice time before the State meet than previ- ous meets. He hopes to duplicate the practice session before this weekend's meets with Indiana and Illinois; the gymnastics squad hopes that he will duplicate his performance against these two teams. 'M' Nttat ors Look Strong "We could take nine first places in the Big Ten meet," noted swim- ming Coach Gus Stager as he launched Michigan's undefeated squad into its final preparations for the Conference battle at the at Iowa City this weekend. Backing up his premise was the work of the Wolverines against Western Ontario on Saturday. Pete Fries, swimming the backstroke for the first time in competition, took first with a respectable 2:19.4. Michigan Backstrokers "Something different" was the way Fries described his first at- tempt in this department. Other top-flight Michigan backstrokers are, Carl Woolley, Dick Hanley and Cy Hopkins. Ed Pongracz, who placed second behind Tony Tashnik in the 200- yd. butterfly, has been improving steadily. "I think we have found his trouble," added Stager and his times in the last few meets have shown constant improve- ment. . Cited for poor performances against the Canadians were Brian Browne and Jim Tanner who failed to meet expectations in the freestyle contest.

Greene took a 39-37 victory over CANHAM PRAISES SCHWARTZ: Track Win Shows All-Out Team Effort By FRED KATZ A timeworn adage in the sports world says that "sooner or later all the breaks will even out." Michigan's track team had to wait only one week to appreciate the truth in that statement. After losing to Illinois 10 days ago because of an injury during the course of thenmile relay, fate reversed itself, and the dropped baton of an Ohio State runner in the same event gave the Wolver- Keen Forced -To Juggle Mat Lineup, 8y HAL APPLEBAUM "If we had had Larry Murray and Tom Leith in the lineup we might have won, as it was we had to settle for a tie," commented Wolverine wrestling coach Cliff Keen when asked about last Sat- urday's 14-14 draw with Ohio State. Murray, who has been wrestling well all season, sustained a leg injury in practice last week and at present 'it is still not known whether the 137-pounder will be ready to go in the upcoming Big- Ten championships 'which will be held at Champaign on Friday and Saturday. Leith was unable to compete when he failed to make the 147-lb. weight. Juggles Lineup As a -result of these absences Keen was forced to juggle his lineup. Captain Max Pearson moved from his spot in the 130=1b. division to Murray's vacated place in the 137-lb. class, while Lloyd Iamady took over Pearson's regu- lar assignment. Dick Summerwill replaced Leith in the 147-lb. class. Pearson easily pinned his op- ponent Don Paz, but Hamady lost a "see-saw" battle to Dave Cani- one, 8-7, and Summerwill was de- feated, 5-0. Keen alsoadded in his descrip- tion of the meet, "You can never gripe about the officiating, but it didn't help any. We have pro- gressed steadily as the season ad- vanced and this was evident at Ohio State." In these quarters it appears that the team, which had only a medi- ocre 3-6-1 record, could surprise the rest of the conference at the championships this weekend. ines a narrow victory last Satur- day, 72-69.' Coach Don Canham has been all smiles since these last two per- formances for they have each represented all-out efforts by vir- tually everyone. He even admitted to being surprised that there wasn't the slightest trace of let- down in the OSU meet caused by the previous loss. Progress Astounding But his greatest overtures are reserved right now for one Don Schwartz, the sophomore two- miler whose progress has been astounding. Schwartz remained in the pack for the first 15 laps Saturday and then burst out in front to win in the excellent time of 9:35.4. "And last year at this time he couldn't have run under 11 min- utes," says Canham. "He's just now recovering from the flu, and his top potential still hasn't been reached because of this fact." Could Be Great Going to the hilt in the praise of his newest star, Canham adds, "He could be the greatest two- miler in the country before he graduates. "He has everything: courage, speed, and tremendous desire. The good runners pay a price for win- ning, and he's more than willing to pay it." Canham flattered him even more by comparing him to the former great Wolverines shotput- ter Dave Owen. "They're both the same type, willing to work to com- pensate for what they lack in natural aptitude." Despite Schwartz's success in the two-mile, Canham plans to keep him there, instead of ex- perimenting with him in other distance events. The comnbination of. coaching strategy and top performances was the basic reasoh behind the win over the Buckeyes. Canham switched several of his men around in the hope of gaining the maxi- mum number of points, and it paid off. Ernie/ Simms came through in the 1000-yd. run, and Cant Gray, another runner trying to rid him- self of the flu, finished in a dead. heat in the 880 with Robin Varian.
