Mich.

The Big 10 has given a clean bill of health to seven cases involving alleged recruiting violations. Three of the cases stemmed from charges from schools outside the conference and the other four from the Big 10's examiner report. The action was taken yesterday as the Big 10 ended its annual March business sessions. Commissioner Bill Reed probed the cases and, under a new enforcement program which is shared by athletic directors, recommended the cases be dropped. The only case identified was that of quarterback Mike Cox of Ames.

Ia. He accepted a tender at Iowa but eventually enrolled at Iowa State last fall. He still is at Iowa State. Bill Happel, freshman Iowa football coach, was accused by Iowa State of trying to talk Cox into returning to Iowa. Reed's report showed that Happel did talk to Cox in an off-campus interview at Ames but at the time did not know the boy had actually enrolled at State.

Hawkeyes Lead Grappling Field MINNEAPOLIS (AP) The championship was far from decided, but Iowa's Hawkeyes looked like a good bet to capture the Big 10 wrestling championship as the 48th tournament moved into today's finals.

Michigan, which last year snapped an 11-year hold by Illinois on the title, had 149 points in the preliminaries, 57 more than runnerup Illinois. Here is the way the teams stood going into today's finals: Michigan 149, Illinois 92, Michigan State 87, Iowa 35, Ohio State 22, Minnesota 15, Indiana 13, and Wisconsin 1.

MUSKEGON TICKETS WA 1-1541 Rover Pool. And it set the Hoosiers for a final assault to night in defense of their conference title. Indiana had put together a heady 120'4-76'2 lead over Michigan toward its second crown before the water even was tweaked today. Mike Troy and Tom Stock were the record busters, and a quartet of Michigan State free-stylers could have joined them. But a quirk of the rules, which were tested to their utmost in the evening session, put a stopper on the Spartan bid.

Chet Jastremski (yes, he won easily) was the guy who failed to come up to expectations, and those hopes were his own. Chet did better the Big 10 mark for the 200-yard breast stroke as he led teammate Kenny Nakasone home. Mike Wood, another Michigan Stater, joined Chet in the conference record breaking department.

"I could have done better." Schulhof, who paced the early part of the event, said he hadn't meant to move out as far in front of Troy as he had. He was afriad of getting too tight. Mike took over at 100 yards and kept increasing his lead. Stock, another cool one, apparently didn't know anyone else was in the pool. He swam his own 200-yard backstroke race and finished going away in 1:56.2, topping the recognized mark of 1:57.1 by Chuck Bittick of Southern California.

In doing so, he also topped the Big 10 record of 1:59.8 by graduated Hoosier Frank Mc-Kinney. Jastremski, on the other hand, said "he tried too hard and didn't relax enough." wanted to win badly and I wat afraid if I went out too fast I would tie up and lose it.

Wood surprised by taking away one of Indiana's prized possessions, the 220-yard free style crown owned by Pete Sintz. It was the first time in three years the Hoosiers hadn't won the event. His 2:01.3 was good for a new Big 10 mark. Defending champ Sintz finished fifth with Hoosiers Don Verth and Alan Somers second and third.
