Wolverine fans will get a chance
to see every spring team in action
at home this weekend.
Jumping off to an early start are
the baseball and tennis teams,
both of which meet opponents
from Northwestern today.
The baseball team goes after its
third Conference win as it meets
the Wildcats at Ferry Field at
3:30 p.m.
The contest with NU heads a
three-game weekend for the Wol-
verine diamondmen, in which their

GAN (there)

fate for the year will be pretty
much determined. At present the
Michigan team is mired in seventh
place with a 2-4 record.
Wolverine Coach Don Lund
named Bob Marcereau to be the
starting hurler against the Wild-
cats, who have fared even worse
than Michigan. They have a Big
Ten mark of 1-4 and are tied for
eighth place.
Top Slugger'
Spearheading the "M" attack
will be the Conference's leading
hitter, right fielder John Halstead,
who is slugging at a potent .478
rate in his first six league games.
Said Lund, "The story of Hal-
stead's climb is truly amazing. He
was a questionable addition to the
roster for the Florida trip, but
since then he has come along so
fast that he is one of the best
players and most consistent hitters
on the team."
Hitting Streak
Halstead carries a 12-game hit-
ting streak, which began soon
after spring vacation, into today's
game. His key hit to date was the
blow that drove in the winning run

in the second game of the double
header with Michigan State. Mich-
igan won, 2-1, in extra innings.
Netmen in Action
Fresh from a 7-2 victory over
Western Michigan, Michigan's
tennis team will end its home
season today at 2:30 p.m. against
Northwestern.
The Wolverines enter the match
with a perfect 2-0 record in Big
Ten competition that includes vic-
tories over Minnesota and Ohio
State. They have also beaten
Toledo, and lost to Notre Dame.
Northwestern, last year's fourth-
place Big Ten team, was hit hard
by graduation losses. The Wild-
cats' new coach, Clare Riessen, has
been faced with the problem of
fashioning a team around but
three returning lettermen.
Returning Lettermen
Back from last season are Vandy
Christie, Gay Messick and Steve
Hibben. Christie, who held down
the number one spot last year, is
being hard pressed by Messick this
spring for the top position.
Captain Jon Erickson, injured
Tuesday against Western Michi-
gan, is expected to be ready to go
against the Wildcats in his usual
number one spot. He also teams up
with Gerry Dubie to give Coach
Bill Murphy a strong number one
doubles team.t
Today's match is the last home
action for the Wolverines this
season.

Golf Team
Tops Frosh
Michigan's varsity golf team
whipped the freshman squad yes-
terday 152-212 in the first of a
series of matches this year.
There were three tied for med-
alist in the meet with score of 79.
They were sophs Joe Brisson and
Dick Youngberg for the winners,
and Tom Ahern for the Frosh.
Other varsity scores were Larry
Markman 80, Ray Lovell and Pat
Keefe 82, and Chuck Blackett 83.
The losers' other scores were
Mike Goode 84, Tom Wilson and
Bob Kohrman 85, Cliff Marks 86,
and Dick Romano who had a real
tough day with a 96.
Ahern and Goode were the only
freshmen to win points as the
former took two from Keefe, and
the latter garnered one half off
Lovell.
The remaining members of the
11-man freshman squad who
couldn't play because of afternoon
classes are: Blil Newcomb, Dave
Lamkin, Bill Yates, Jeff Belfore
and Chuck Mitchell.

One for the Money
EN POLE VAULTER Bob Gutowski competes for the Quantico
Marines here tomorrow, track fans can articipate a possible world
record. If Gutowski claims it, you can bet Michigan Coach Don
Canham will be just as satisfied as the revengeful vaulter, who already
has a non-record world best to his credit. Canham has been trying to
give Michigan track a boost for 13 years now-and his work has paid
off tremendously this spring.
Canham has watched 41,000 Easterners turn out for the Penn
Relays and more than that show up for West Coast dual meets. While
he doesn't expect crowds of that size tomorrow, he does think the sport
will get a Midwest boost by bringing Quantico's strong dual team and
the star vaulter.
How are chances for a record?
"Gutowski and Cornelius Warmerdam are the two best vaulters
I've ever seen," said Canham, who added he has watched Don Bragg
perform. "Gutowski is the most logical man to be the first 16-footer.
He has the most potential-more speed and coordination than Bragg,
even though he doesn't have as much strength.i
An amazingly versatile trackman, Gutowski can broad jump
almost 25' and runt the 100 in :09.8. He was injured earlier in the
year, but Canham reported he is back in peak condition. The former
Occidental College vaulter had predicted: "I believe that I can go
over 16' this year."
Gutowski reached 15'93%" two years ago to set the collegiate mark.
It was not recognized in the world archives, however, due to a techni-
cality. The world record is 15'7%", established by Warmerdam back in
1942. (The only other major track mark older than that was the
26'8%" leap in the broad jump, which was set by Jesse Owens on
Ferry Field in 1935.
The pole vault conditions at Ferry Field are ideal for a record
jump. The utilities were completely revamped, as part of the improve-
ment program, for the coming Big Ten meet. A new asphalt-formula
runway-the best available-was added. In the only competition under
the new conditions, Mike Johnson of Purdue jumped 14'3"-well over
his best.
...ana Iwo for the Show
IF GUTOWSKI "just" hovers around the 15' height, he may have
company. Michigan's Eeles Landstrom went 15'1" in Europe last
summer and was consistently jumping 14'8" last winter. The big Finn,
who has an ideal vaulter's build, tried all winter to reach 15' indoors-
his major goal in American competition. He shares the present Ferry
Field record at 14'4". Landstrom is Europe's greatest in the event. In
fact, with the exception of three Americans, he is the best in world.
Michigan's Mamon Gibson and Quantico's two-three punch of
Mel Schwarz and Bob Tork will join the world stars in making this t
competition the greatest dual meet (involving a college team) ever, for
vaulters. Gibson has vaulted 14'6" outdoors; Schwarz, 14'11"; and
Tork, 14'6".
Not a bad day for vaulters at all-considering that in 1935 the
world best was 14'51/7".
