CHUCK FRANKEL entered
Wayne University's baseball hall

who became the first pitcher in
Wayne history to turn in a hit-
less game.

Rose to Defend Title
•
F E W PROGNOSTICATORS
are predicting a victory for
Mauri Rose in the Indianapolis
auto-racing classic Monday, but
none is counting him out.
The mustached, bespectacled
veteran was an underdog last
year, too. But he roared in
first even though he trailed Bill
Holland for all but seven laps
of the gruelling distance.
Mauri, a Chicagoan, has a
record that includes one victory,
a co:victory in 1941 and a sec-
ond, third and fourth place in
nine starts.
