After sustaining a frustrating loss to Michigan State at the season's outset, the Wolverines have maintained a perfect record. They went on to win the pres- tigious Alma Invitational and to down the Spartans in a second ddal meet before winning a sea- son-ending pair of tournaments. The Wolverines wrapped up their regular schedule with two major victories in the last two weeks. The team took titles in both the Northern Collegiate and Spartan Invitational tourneys. Michigan's greatest opposition for the Big Ten crown is expected to come from Indiana, although the Wolverines edged the Hoosiers in the Spartan Invitational. BASEBALL After dropping from first to. fourth in the Big Ten baseball race last week, the Michigan dia- mond men will take on Illinois and Purdue in a pair of double- headers this weekend. The Wolverines, after losing three in a row in Big Ten compe- tition, came back Tuesday to re- venge Western Michigan Univer- sity, 8-3, for a loss incurred ear- lier in the season. Illinois is the real threat in the weekend series. Trailing Michigan by only one game in the Big Ten scramble. Illinois "has seen }mean- ingful victories over tough teams," according to Assistant Coach Dick Honig. Honig explains the Wolverine's BIG TEN STANDINGS position. "The Michigan team is not at all out of the race. But we need these wins to have a valid shot at the championship. Since we face two of the weaker teams in the league this weekend, it is our chance to comeback." Scheduled to start the pitching honors for today's games are Jack Hurley (1-3) and Steve Evans (3- 4). Dave Renkiewicz (4-5) and Rod Scott (2-0) will open up against Illinois tomorrow. Featured to lead Michigan slug- ging are Elliott Maddox, Captain Doug Nelson, and Jim Hosler, all batting over .375 in overall per- formance. Michigan leads Big Ten fielding with .947, while Wisconsin is tops in team batting with 296 and slugging with .418 Rally NOON 1Ral BILL /AYERS for School Board Bucket Drive All Day Student Friends of CNP -~ --.- -- -- - .1 4 Try Daily Classifieds Tshe remainder ofgthe Wolver- JON HAINLINE ines' entries in singles play re- JNHILN corded easy victories, with both to the championship in good phy- Joe Hainline and Bruce DeBoer sical shape, with half-miler Tom winning second-round decisions.

Preliminary action will take place this afternoon in most events, with final competition this evening in the long jump and the discus. The Wolverine thinclads go in- run indoors. Among these are the discus and the triple jump. Wolverine Bob Thomas is the defending discus champ, while at least two Michigan men are ap- proaching the 50-foot mark in the triple jump. A mixed blessing for the Wol- verines may be the number ofj relay races held in the outdoor meet. Only the mile relay was run indoors, while the 440, 880, two-mile, sprint medley, and dis- ±e wolverines took points in 13 of 14 events staged indoors, yet managed only two firsts-cap- tain Alex McDonald captured the1 660 crown and Gary Knickerbock- er won the high jump. With the squad notably weak in the shot put and pole vault, the Wolverine team will have to pick up points in the triple, long and high jumps. And this is defi- nitely possible, JUMPERS BEST With Warren Bechard and Carl Flowers, Michigan probably has the best pair of triple jumpers in the conference. The same may be true in the high jump, where Knickerbocker is joined by Rick Hunt and Clarence Martin, both of whom have won the outdoor title in the past. Ira Russell, who has improved steadily to record the best dis- tance in the conference for the long jump this season, might very easily win his specialty. DAILY OFFICIAL!

Larry Midlam owns a :13.8 clocking in the high hurdles, to tie him with MSU's Charles Pol- lard and Wisconsin's Mike Butler in the favorite's position. The sprints will be well cov- ered, with both George Hoey and Sol Espie representing the team in the 100, and Leon Grundstein going in the 220.x BIG DIFFERENCE And distance ace Jim Dolan must finish high in the three-mile run. A win here could make a big difference when the final stand- ings are calculated. The rest of the meet will depend largely on the way Martin de- cides to distribute his talent in the middle-distance and relay events. With a half dozen fine half- milers and at least three capable of turning in 4:15 miles, the ulti- mate Michigan push could come in these events. GOLF Also holding the inside track for a conference team title is the' Michigan golf squad. The links- men travel to Bloomington this weekend for the Big Ten meet that determines the champion- ship. Captain John Schroeder has led the squad through one of its best seasons ever, with Rocky Pozza and Rod Sumpter helping provide the fireworks. !STEVE EVANS Minnesota 10 2 .850 Michigan State 8 2 .800 Wisconsin 8 4 .667 MICHIGAN 6 4 .600 Illinois 5 5 .500 Northwestern 5 7 .417 Iowa 4 6 .400 Indiana 3 6 .333 Ohio State 2 7 .222 Purdue 0 8 .000 TODAY'S GAMES Purdue at Michigan (2) 1:00 p.m. Northwestern at Ohio State (2) Iowa at Minnesota Illinois at Michigan State (2) Wisconsin at Indiana (2) TOMORROW'S GAMES Illinois at Michigan (2) Purdue at Michigan State (2) Wisconsin at Ohio State (2) Northwestern at Indiana (2) Iowa at Minnesota ,A 4 Thnere once was a lay named Mitzi Engaged to a Fritz rmPoughkceepsie B i When his Schlitz had run dry.
