Batmen to play pair of twinbills; try to salvage dismal season I4 Coach Moby Benedict's Wolver- ine baseball squad's last chance to gain salvation out of an other- wise dismal season comes today and tomorrow when they close out the Big Ten season with double- headers against Minnesota and Iowa. The Wolverines, currently 6-6 in the conference and 11-19 overall, will be attempting to play the spoilers role this afternoon when they engage league leading Minne- sota at one o'clock at Ferry Field. Also in the back of the Wolverines' minds will be the outside possi- bility of capturing second place in the conference by sweeping all four weekend contests. Minnesota, the defending Big Ten champions, need to win only one of its four games to run off with another conference diamond title. They are currently 12-2 in the Big Ten and 32-9 overall. The Gophers, who are leading the Big Ten in batting with a .334 average are led by first baseman Mike Walseth and outfielders Noel Jenke and Bob Nielsen. Walseth is batting .439, .368 in Big Ten play, and has six homers and 39 runs batted in. Jenke, who is averaging .412 and :457 in the conference, has hit twelve homers this season. Nielsen is currently hitting .354 and has slugged nine homers. Minnesota also boasts a fine crop of pitchers, led by Dave Cos- grove, Gary Petrich and Bruce Ericson. Cosgrove has compiled a; 5-2 mark this season, Petrich is 6-0, and Ericson is 6-1. If Minnesota does lose all four weekend games, it could still cap- ture the title outright if both Il- linois and Ohio State each lost one contest. Gopher Coach Dick Sie- bert said, however, "I'm not about to worry about what Ohio or Il- linois does. My only concern is our own games. We are going all out to bring the title back to Minne- sota by winning it ourselves, not by backing into it."

The White Sox tagged McLain for seven runs and eight hits in the six innings he worked. Walt Williams started the four-run first with a single and raced to third when Luis Aparicio sliced a double that landed fair by inches down the right field line. Carlos May walked, loading the bases and Gail Hopkins hit a sacrifice fly for the first run. Aparicio scored on a force play and then stalling the Gopher drive for the top spot. Throughout the cam- paign Michigan has either suffered from a lack of pitching or lack of hitting. Seldom has Coach Bene- dict's team put everything together as evidenced by losses of such varied scores as 12-11 (to Bowling Green), 10-9 (to Western Michi- gan), and 1-0 (to Purdue). There have, however, been some bright spots for the Wolverines this year. Third baseman Glenn Redmon, leftfielder John Kraft, and rightfielder John Arvai are all slugging enemy pitching at well over a .300 clip. On the pitching side, Mark Carrow's performance this season has been a pleasant surprise. The' righthander from Ann Arbor was an infielder when the season began, but he now leads the Wolverines in earned run )out possible; average and is among the leaders in the Big Ten in that depart- ment. Despite the team's rather poor performance this season, it still is one of six teams, aside from Min- nesota, who have a shot at cap- turing second place in the Big Ten race. The Wolverines, how- ever, will need a great deal of luck, in' addition to four wins, to have any shot at the runner-up slot. Big Ten Standings Melton tagged his fourth. home run for a 4-0 lead. Jim Northrup homered for the Tigers in the, eighth. The loss was McLain's first in, five decisions and dropped his season mark to 6-4. The contest was played in Mil- waukee's County Stadium and attracted 15,928. It was one of eleven White Sox home games to be played here. Orioles fly BALTIMORE-Frank Robinson, hit his 12th homer in the sixth inning and singled in the tie- breaking run during a five4un, seventh as the Baltimore Orioles beat the Minnesota Twins 6-2 last night.

KANSAS CITY (AP) - Ewing I Kauffman, owner of the fledg- ling Kansas City Royals, wants to win an American League pen- nant within five years and he has a unique plan he says might provide the baseball players to do it. What is needed is a new and untapped source of talent, he told Joe McGuff, sports editor of the Kansas City Star in an interview. And he detailed his ideas about how to find the talent. He would set up tryout camps all over the country to find the 24 best athletes who have not played baseball. Only over-all would cost $500,000 the first year. "My thinking is to go into all the major cities in the country and set up tryout camps," Kauffman said. "I realize that the outstanding baseball player will be known to other organiza- tions and will be taken in the free agent draft, "This is not the type of boy we are looking for. We want the boy who is simply an outstand'- ing athilete but who has played little or no baseball. His name would never come up in the fres agent draft. "He must be 17 or 18 and a high school graduate. This pro- gram is not designed for the col- lege graduate. He would be too "My thought would be to sign these boys to a contract and pay them a monthly salary.* We would set up a training camp in Florida. They would live there free . . . the year round. "Boys who have played base- ball from nine to 16 years will have got less total practice than our boys would in 11 , months. This type of instruction would be provided for not one but two years. "After that a boy would be ready to go out and play. If somre boys show exceptional ability, we might let them play earlier in one of the rookie leagues- "There are still a lot of things to be worked out before we make BOOK FAIR Saturday, May 24 8:30 A.M. to 4:00 P.M.
