The diving prelims will be about noon and the finals at 7 p.m.Arlington. Forest View and Elk Grove all own a share of the top spot after the dual meet season came to a close last week, and the winner at Saturday's meet will decide which team will do down as the MSl.'s first champion. All have 3-1 records.tUP UNTIL this year, there was no swimming‘conference in the MSL, with the teams competing just in duals withno league or championship aims. This season, however, the five schools joined up in a league and three entrants have battled each other to the wire.The first sign of such a tie came when Arlington nosed out Forest View early in the season and, after an inquiry into the scoring of that meet, the results were upheld to give Arlington the upset victory over the favored Falcons.Then, as late as last Tuesday, Elk Grove beat the Cardinals in what would havebeen a one-point win except for two Arlington disqualifications.Forest View threw theleague into the three-way tie by besting Elk Grove later in the week.PROSPECT AND HerseyIt s tournament time again!!

All three havebeen very impressive. At 175 pounds. Forest View has BrjpceBrod, who has lost only twice, and Arlington has Pete Harth togo against the rest of the field.In the 185-pound class. Forest View has another strong entry in John Walker, while Andy Locken of Arlington is thought of highly. Bruce Eberle of Palatine could also cause some trouble for opponents. Palatine sc hoots*-with Conant s Dick Heisel, Fremd’s I im I uerk and Palatine's Jeff Frost-seem to dominateAT 98 pounds, Jerry Ancona of Elk Grove should be the one to watch.
