Therefore. the Michigan meet should give the Lions a good clue as to their chances in the Nationals. The big names in the Big "M" lineup that have carried the team through unbeaten include Nino Mai ion, Jim Hayslett and Walt Dozauer three gentlemen wli o gave the Lions si ‘; care before losing last year, 51-45 But the Wol verines have hown definite improvement this year and have come up with a sopho mole who has carried a consid erable amount of the scoring, Rich Montpetit. Montpetlt, who hails from Montreal, had a fifth, fourth, a pair of thirds and a second to rack up valuable team points in the win against Illinois. In most of the events he was either beaten by Grossfeld and/or Tonry which should prove in teresting in comparing his scores against the Lions' Ar mando Vega. Incidentally, Ve ga and Jay Werner will defi nitely work the first five events tomorrow and are en tered in the sixth, tumbling. Hayslett appears as their top threat in the opening event. free exercise. The two M's— Marion and Montnetit give them good depth on free "x." Al Stall, who hit 272 against Illinois, is tops on the side horse with backing from the M's. The M-squad then dominates the learn scoring on high bar, par allels and still rings, usually teamed with Stall. Although Michigan does not appear to have the talent to de efat a healthy Vega, they have strong depth and can win on sec ond, third and fourth place points. Tumbling should be the Wol verines' strongest event tomor row. (They are Big Ten champs on the trampoline but. for ob vious reasons, there will be no tramp event. The rope climb will be an exhibition and not a learn event.) Michigan's top tumblers include Jim Brown (who has hit in the high 270's) and Bill Skinner. Stall and co-captain Hayslett. Wettstone has promised a fast and colorful meet, probably the "best of the year." And Michigan w ill be performing against its first crowd in four figures.

PENNSYLVANIA Eastern Champs Back to Defend 167, Heavyweight Mat Crown Last of a Series There will be plenty of collegi ate mat champions entered in I the 167, 177 and heavyweight !divisions of this year's EIWA i tournament, Two of the tithsts are back to defend the crowns they won in last year's Eastern carnival; an, other will be trying to regain a championship after faltering last March, and still, a third will be seeking his first EIWA crown after previously winning an NCAA honor. The first two individuals are Rutgers' captain Chuck Crosby and Cornell's co-captain Dave Dunlop. Crosby won the 167- pound EIWA title last year at Pittsburgh while Dunlop walk ed off with the heavyweight crown. The other returnees are Lehigh's Ed Hamer and Pitt's Tom Alberts. Hamer copped the 157-pound Eastern crown as a sophomore two years ago and Alberts won the 167-pound national champion ship as a rookie in 1957. Hamer is entered in the 177- pound bracket this time, but the other three are set in their title winning positions. That means that Crosby and Alberts will be going in the same class-167. Crosby, who was unbeaten in dual season with half of his wins coming on falls, will prob ably be seeded number one with Alberts, 6-1-3 in the regular campaign, next. However, there are four other highly-rated men entered at 167, making this division one of the strongest of the tourney. They in clude Penn State's Hank Barone, Cornell's Al_Marion, Lehigh's Thad Turner and Syracuse's Harry Pollak. Crosby did not meet any of the top contenders during the regular season, but Alberts faced Barone, ... undefeated heavyweight Turner and Pollak. He beat Ba rone, 10-2, and tied the other two—Turner, 4-4, and Pollak, 1-1. In other matches, Barone pinned Pollak and lost on a decision to Turner, 4-1; and Marion edged Pollak, 4-3. The top-seeded spot at 177 will probably go to Hamer, but he has plenty of competition from the likes of Penn State's George Gray, Navy's Doug Vol genau, Army's Art Bair, Har vard's Bob Poster and Yale's Hardy Will. Hamer includes Volgenau, 5-1, Bair, 1-0, and Will, 5-4, among his dual meet victims this year.
