victory over Kansas University last Saturday afternoon,
will step out of the Big Seven this week-end to entertain a
powerful Michigan State team. Michigan State has one
of the top swimming club in the country. The Spartans
placed fourth in the N.C.A.A. Swimming Championships
last year.

team is expected to come from
Marvin Grimm. Grimm will
swim in the 50-yard and 100
