THE MICHIGAN DAILY p Wolverine Nine Lose Double Bill Michigan Tennis Team Coasts Past Indiana, 9-0 04 By TOM WITECKI Special to The Daily LAFAYETTE - "We finally found ourselves," chortled Pur- due's smiling baseball coach Jack Hoffman, after watching his squad whip a frustrated Michigan nine twice yesterday by identical 6-3 scores. And anyone who watched the two games couldn't help but agree with the happy Boilermaker coach - for his last-place team played like champions. Taking the field with a 1-8-1 Big Ten record, Pur- due proceeded to outplay the Wol- verines in every facet of the game. In the pitching department, Jack Heldkamp 'and Mike Birck com- bined to hold the Michigan team to just five hits in the entire doubleheader. Five Home Runs At the same time, Boilermaker batters blasted two Michigan pitchers for five home runs, all of which went over 360 feet. ?- 9 g KE DS 4J3SO E4* for perfect footwork and comfort Professionally designed by and for top-flight tennis' players.

On the other side of the field, where the visiting Wolverines were preparing for a long bus trip home, things were not as cheerful. Only Ten Hits Yesterday's five hits, coupled with the five they picked up Fri- day against Illinois, gave them a total of ten for three games-an anemic amount for a squad that had started the weekend as the top-hitting club of the Big Ten. John Halstead, who had been the conference's leading batter, experienced a tough weekend, along with the rest of the Wol- verine squad. The Bay City sopho- more went hitless in nine attempts, seven times yesterday, as he watched his batting average drop 93 points to .364. The double loss lowered Michi- gan's Big Ten record to 5-7 and dropped it into the depths of the conference second division. Two Home Runs Left-fielder Gerald Zubak's two home runs off left hander Nick Liakonis sparked Purdue's attack in the first game. The blasts, worth two runs apiece, backed up a fine pitching performance by southpaw Heldkamp, who tossed a three- hitter at the Wolverines. One of the hits was a two-run bases-loaded single by Jack Mogk. This was the key blow in a three- run Michigan uprising in the sixth inning. Wasted in the first game was a fine relief job 'turned in by Al Koch, who replaced Liakonis in the fifth inning and allowed just one run and two hits over the re- mainder of the distance, while, striking out five. Marcereau Victim In the nightcap, lefty Bob Mer- cerau became another home-run victim. Big Mike Ostrowski slugged a pair of solo homers, one of which sailed some 420 feet. Duff Mackenzie also contributed a three - run round - tripper to the Purdue cause. Michigan got into the act late in the second game, when third baseman Dave Brown smashed a two-run homer over the left cen- terfield fence. Scoring ahead of Brown was first-baseman Bill Ro- man, whose single was Michigan's only other hit in the second game. Now, with just three games re- maining, all at home next week- end, Michigan will have to hustle if it hopes to avoid a second con- secutive finish in the Big Ten second division. RECORD-BREAKER-Sophomore star Tony Seth crosses the finish line after winning another half-mile run. The lanky runner from British Guiana set an Ohio Stadium mark yesterday when he covered the half-mile in 1:50.7. M' Cindermen Crush OSU; Seth Sets Half-Mile Record (Continued from page 1) Once again the Wolverines got the advantage, though, as Erickson squeezed by with a three-set vic- tory, 7-9, 6-3, 6-4. Dubie Plays Well Gerry Dubie, who has been play- Ing well for Michigan, once more pulled out a victory. He easily manhandled the Hoosiers' captain, Jack Fitzpatrick, 6-1, 6-2. Dubie's only loss this season was to Notre Dame's Don Ralph. Another 'M' netter who has managed to earn victories in every' meet is Bob Sassone. He downed Harry Garnette, 6-2, 6-2, in num- ber three singles. Defeats Hoosier In the remaining matches, Larry Zaitzeff, playing number .four singles, defeated Hoosier Dean Dixon, 6-3, 6-2; 'M' netter Frank Fulton, number five singles, down- ed Ilan Iothmuller, 6-2, 6-4; and Wayne Peacock added the final Wolverine singles victory by cap- turing a 6-1, 6-2 contest from sophomore Denny Lortz. In a combined effort, Erickson and Dubie edged Field' and Dixon in number one doubles, 7-5, 6-3, while on the next court Peacock and Zaitzeff were taking a 6-4, 6-1 victory from Garnette and Fitz- patrick. Completing the perfect day for the Wolverine's were John Wiley and Fulton. This duo, undefeated in doubles competition this year, again chalked up a win by taking a closely played 7-5, 7-5 win from Lortz and Rothmuller. Fine Showing Michigan, by virtue of its fine appearances throughout the sea- son, has been named as the team to beat at the Conference playoffs next weekend. Yesterday was the first match that the Wolverines have played on cement courts. This experience may prove invaluable to them since the new tennis courts at Michigan State (where the Big Ten meet is to be held) are of the same ma- terial. The home courts are made of composition clay and lightly color- ed brick dust and this lets thes ball bounce more slowly compared to the cement courts.

Les Bird, jumping spectacularly of late, won the broad jump, but was able to go no further than 23'10", a foot less than his win- ning leap against Quantico Ma- rines last week. Shot-putter Joel Boydon won his specialty with a toss of 50'. Sweep Hurdles The Wolverines swept the hurdle events. Dick Cephas won the 220- yard low hurdles in :22.9 and Pete Stanger led the field in the 120- yard high hurdles. Stanger's win- ning time for the distance was :15. The last Michigan victory was annexed by Dave Martin, who took the mile-run. Martin's time for the mile was 4:24.3. Ohio State's victories came in Connolly Sets World .Record SAN DIEGO ('P)-Harold Con- nolly last night surpassed his own world record with a hammer throw of 226'11%" at the Pacific South- west AAU Track and Field meet. He set the previous record of 225'4" last year. the mile relay, discus, high jump and quarter mile run. Michigan's mile - relay team hampered by the absence of Robin- son and Bryan Gibson, who also, missed the meet with a leg in- jury, lost a narrow decision to the host Buckeyes. Howie Nourse's jump of 6'4" was good enough to earn him first place in the high. jump, while his teammate Ted Storer won the 440 in the time of :48.8. Fields Victorious Bill Fields was the Buckeyes other winner. His victory came in the discus. This was the Wolverines last dual meet competition before the Big Ten Championships next weekend. Michigan figures to be co-favor- ite with Illinois for the meet to be run Friday and Saturday at Ferry Field. Tickets for both days events are available at the Athletic Adminis- tration Building.
