U.B Ohio State, the big frog In the collegiate swimming puddle, arrived here today to defend their firmly-set crown in the national collcptate Kwimming championships here Friday and Saturday. The Buckeye, sparked by a couple of Hawaiian mermen, were favorites to retain their championship despite the pool-churning of ace swimmers from 22 other colleges.

Spotlight of the swimming and diving meet will be focused on two world's record holders, neither of whom were defending champions in their events. Bill Smith, the Hawaiian P-T boat, did not compete for the Buckeyes last season but was expected to pick up a couple of more titles to go with his, world's records in the 220 and 440 yard free style events. The other natator with a world's record to his credit was Joseph Verdaur from little La Salle college in Philadelphia. Verdeur, a style perfectionist, holds the mark for the 200-yard breast stroke. He will splash against Charles Keating of Cincinnati university, defending champion for the collegiate event Swimmers and divers from the following colleges were hoping to get more out of the two-day meet We wanted to play Utah, even though we might have lost, mid Bowling League Races Tighten With the bowling semon rolling towards a close, battles for top position were de doping in nearly every league.

That should just about settle the season even before it gets under way.

The always eager Beavers with Manager Jim (Milkman) Turner making his debut as a triple A pilot, art coming strong in the closing stages of the spring training program and at this writing rank as a definite contender for any spot from the ton down. Turner, who cut quite a path in the big leagues several years ago as a pitcher when he teamed up with another oldtlmer, Lou Fette, to form a formidable mound duo, isn't climbing out on anyone's re-sea son limb.

Turner, a shrewd judne of pitchers, doesn't do uny hund-stands 'when, he contemplates his mound corps, but he's careful to point out that among his six veterans and large of rookies are mrn who have the making of giving Portlund a winner this year. Roy Helser (20-16). Jack Sulve-son (15-14), Ad Llska (7-16). Wandel Mossor (2-6), Jake Mooty (11-19) and Tommy Bridges are expected to form the front line on the hill.

Before you go sellinp the family filverware to back such positive prognostication, remember that old Fearless gave you such sterling tips as the Red Sox over the Cardinals in the last world series; a dainty bit of sandwich salami called' Dark Jungle in the last Kentucky Derby, and man named Billy Conn, or something like that, to whip Joe Louis.
