Parks jumped the gun at the beginning of the race-a rarity in the 1,500. He took over the lead from Steuart at the quarter mile mark in 4:50.3, oply to have see- saw for the remainder of the race. Pete Fries--the other Michigan entry in the 1,500-meters-also turned in a disappointing time. Fries' clocking of 19:16.1 had brought him fifth place in the Big Ten Meet but last night'sheffort was only 19:44. In the diving Dick Kimball, the defending NCAA champion, placed second to Ohio State's Don Harper. Harper was unable to compete last year because of an NCAA proba- tion ban, but is Big Ten champion and NAAU title holder. Harper was also second to ex-Buckeye Bob Clotworthy in the 1956 Olym- pic springboard championships. Harper executed his dives with perfection and scored 481.25 points to Kimball's 467.3. Gaxiola Places Third Michigan's Al Gaxiola finished in third place with 458.3. Ron Smith of SMU was fourth. The afternoon's surprise in the qualifying round of the diving was the failure of OSU's Glen Whitten-the second half of the Buckeye's one-two punch -- to place in the finals. Whitten had finished fourth in the 1956 Olym- pics.

Freestyle Relay Finals t By PAUL BORMAN Special to The Daily IOWA CITY-Michigan's sopho- more-laden gymnastics team is cast in the "dark horse" role here today as the Big Ten Meet begins. Beginning this season the Wol- verines, who finished second last year, were picked as the favorites to cap the title. However, the loss of its captain and top point-getter, Ed Gagnier, has put the team out of the running according to the consensus here. Seeded ahead of Michigan are Illinois and Iowa, with Michigan State predicted for a close fourth. Loken Picks Illini Wolverine gymnastics coach Newt Loken sees Illinois as "the team to beat," but he added: "Be- ing in its own gym will definitely help Iowa." The Hawkeyes boast the only unbeaten record in the Conference and their wins include a triumph over Illinois. Loken admits that Michigan doesn't have the "big guns" like Illinois' Abe Grossfeld and John, Davis, Michigan State's Stan Tar- T shis or Iowa's Ted Segura and Steffan Carlsson. The gym coach, however, went on to say: "The meet is not de- cided from first place finishes only. It is the depth that determines the champion and although we lack the first place stars, our depth will keep us in the running." By depth Loken was referring to his senior-less team of junior Jim Hayslett and the spectacular soph- omores, Wolf Dozauer, Nino Mar- ion, Barry Feinberg and Bill Skin- ner. Skinner Ready Skinner specializes in tumbling and his newest addition to his bag of tricks, a double reverse som- mersault twister should cut him mersult wistr shuldut I Phi Delts Ca Fraternity 1 Phi Delta Theta added the in- door track title to its growing number of I-M trophies by win- ning last night's fraternity finals at Yost Field House. Varsity cager Terry Miller cap- tured two firsts and set a new record as the Phi Delts earned 19 points, good enough to give them a five-point bulge over sec- ond place Lambda Chi Alpha. Following the first two teams were Sigma Phi and Sigma Al- pha Epsilon each with ten points. Sigma Alpha Mu, with eight points, was fifth. Records in the broad jump and the pole vault events also were broken. p ture I=M 7rack Meet The shot put turned out to be the closest contest of the night as only two feet separated the first four finishers. Tom Wilson of the Phi Delts came out on top of the scramble with a toss of 40'11112". The mile run was turned into a runaway by a combination of fine running by the winner, Fred Seewald of Sigma Phi and a lack of pressure from opponents. at or near the top of the tumblin points. His biggest opposition wi come from last year's winner, I1ii nois' Frank Hailand. Hayslett, who finished fifth i last year's all-around event, ha improved greatly from this sea son's disappointing beginning an is expected to be the key man i Michigan's attack. All Around Stars Dozauer, Marion and Hayslet will represent Michigan in the all around event while Stall and Fein berg will also compete in all the events, but since only three tean entries are allowed, their point: will not count in the all-aroun event. Michigan's only possible fir comes in the trampoline veer where Ed Cole last year's Big Te champion will strive to overcomn the effects of a recent ankle sprai and retain his title. Besides the top four teams tli only noticeable threat is expecte to come from Minnesota. Tb Gophers have a good all-aroun man in Ken Hoechel and an exi cellent tumbler in Jerry Lynch. -Daily-Ian MacNiven ON THEIR WAY -- Four eager swimmers get prepared to start the grueling 1500-meters in the NCAA meet which started last night at the Varsity Exhibition Pool. Bill Steuart; the eventual winner, is second from the left. MANN-KIPHUTH COMPETITION: Rival Coaches Meet in Swim Finals Your best buy is a giant twelve-inch l By CHUCK KOZOLL Two deans of American swim- ming, Bob Kiphuth of Yale and Matt Mann of Oklahoma, domi- nated the coaching scene last night. Meeting for the 40th time since Kiphuth succeeded Mann as Yale coach, the two veteran mentors found themselves cast in second- kry roles behind the favored Wol- verine team. Mann, "guardian angel of the NCAA meet" has begun construc- tion of a swimming dynasty in Oklahoma which may match Big Ten teams in years to come. "We want more swimming com- petition, and a lot more pools if we are to scare Michigan," noted the former "M" coach. Working on all schools in the Big Eight Conference, Mann has stirred up great interest in the sport. Proof of the Mann influence is the balance in the meet by Oklahoma as represented by Larry Lermo's victory in his heat of the 1500-meter event. Former Pupil Watching a former pupil, now coach, Mann noted former free- styler Gus Stager, who swam on the 1947-50 teams and was an Olympic hopeful. "He's my biggest booster" was Stager's appraisal of Mann. Bowling Green Coach Sam Cooper, whose teams have been Mid-American Conference cham- pions for three past years, saw the Mann-power as a force in building Michigan into a powerful swim- ming state. Kiphuth, whose Yale squads haven't felt defeat in 145 dual contests, recalls that Mann once specialized in coaching six teams simultaneously. Kiphuth predicted that the Mann contingent would wage a tight battle with Michigan State and his own Ivy League team to follow up the dominant Michigan squad. Adding to the color provided by the two rivals and the first pres- entation of the National Collegiate and Scholastic Swimming Trophy. It went to Edward T. Kennedy,. retired swimming coach from Columbia. In an afternoon election, the NCAA coaches chose Fred Lanoue, Georgia Tech, as president; Joe Rogers, University, of Massachu- setts, first vice-president; Charles McCaffree, Michigan State, second vice-president; and Ted Webster, Syracuse, secretary-treasurer, PIZZA $100 Levy Sets Record Larry Levy, representing SAM, flew 22'2/4" to surpass the exist- ing broad jump mark by 2% inches. Mike Aughey of Sigma Phi soared 11'6", one-half foot over the old record, in capturing first place in the pole vault. *0 0 i G Quickie C/tickle FREE DELIVERY .NO 2-9944 "m"mm. 11 t AER GIEV1 1 DON HARPER ...

Mat Title Today 'I C at 2R CHESTER ROBERTS << By AL JONES Michigan's one-man wrestling team will begin his battle for an NCAA title today at Laramie, Wyo. Max Pearson, the Michigan mat captain and only Wolverine grappler entered in the national meet, will begin the drive toward the 130-lb. title in the preliminary matches this afternoon. The finals will be held tomorrow. Pearson and his coach, Cliff Keen, left yesterday for the Wyo- J ming campus, and will be there until Sunday. Y Last College Meet This will be the last collegiate meet for the 'M' senior, and will constitute a final challenge to his wrestling ability. Pearson ranks among the best of the many great wrestlers that Keen has tutored at Michigan in his 32-year coaching tenure. Last year Pearson was forced to settle for the 130-lb. runner-up spot in the NCAA meet, as he lost out to Penn State's Johnny John- ston, 7-5, in the finals. In Big Ten action, the Michigan senior had won two Conference titles in a row, and was selected the "Outstanding Wrestler" in this year's Big Ten meet. The last Michigan wrestler to take an NCAA title was also a 130-lb. competitor - Skip Nalan -who won the title in 1953 and 1954. Since then many Wolverines - including Dan Deppe, Andy Kaul, Frank Hirt, Jack Marchello, and Mike Rodriguez - have all fallen just short of the mark. All of these Michigan stars were Big Ten titlists, and placed high in the nationals. Pearson will be in the Michigan tradition, as the Wolverines al- ways send at least one strong con- tender to the NCAA meet. "Jockey brand underwear made me a brighter star!" ;" "You can't play Cyrano if you wear baggy underwear!' the drama coach told me. That was the day I bought my first pair of Jockey briefs. Quel fit!
