Champion Thinclads Start Outdoor Campaign

RECRUITS NEGRO:
Wake Forest Breaks
Football Race Barrier

By MICHAEL RUTKOW SKI
"You don't get performances
like that every day."
That's how Don Canham, coach
of Michigan's Big Ten indoor
champion track team, sums up
his feelings about a team he has
frequently described as one of his
best ever.
The indoor version of this year's
track team earned 67 points in the
championships with five cinder-
men earning individual honors.
Those who brought home the lau-
rels for Michigan were: Captain
Roger Schmitt in the shotput; Ted
Kelly, half mile; Al Ammerman,
high jump; Des Ryan, mile; and
Kent Bernard in the 600-yard run.
IHigh hurdler Cliff Nuttall, 300-
yard dashman Mac Hunter, and
the mile relay team all finished
second by a one-tenth of a second.
The thinclads won the meet
handily :(19 points) over runnerup
Wisconsin.
Rematch
Even though Canham does not.
expect championship performances
from his men every day, he does
think that the outdoor cham-
pioniships in May will be a two
3 team dual with Wisconsin again.
He feels that if "they perform as
they did" in Columbus last month
they should have a good chance
for the outdoor crown.
Last year Michigan tied for the
indoor title, but failed to win the
outdoor title, which they had won
in 1962. This year Canham says
the Wolverines will fight it out
with Wisconsin 'if they can stay
away from injuries.
The outdoor track season be-
gins this Saturday for Michigan as
the track team travels to the
Kentucky Relays at the Univer-
sity of Kentucky. Originally the
thinclads were to have gone south
to compete against Tennessee over
spring vacation, but Canham felt
his men had earned a rest.

The Kentucky Relays will be
a big meet with about 30 teams
from the East, Southeast, and the
Big Ten. Representing the Big
Ten, besides Michigan, will be Illi-
nois, Indiana, Iowa, and Ohio
State.
Canham is taking the full team
to Kentucky, but he is not going
only to win. As far as he is con-
cerned the relays will be little
more than "a time trial." He is,
also, going so that the Wolver-
ines can get some conditioning
outdoors.
As for the rest of the outdoor
season there will only be two
home meets for Michigan, the
Michigan Federation Open April
24 and a dual meet with the Chi-
cago Track Club May 9. Away
they will be competing in the
Ohio State Relays April 18, the
Penn Relays April 24-25, the In-
diana Fedetation Meet May 16,
and a dual meet with Penn State
May 2-before the Big Ten
Championships at Northwestern
.May 22-23.

WINSTON-SALEM, N. C. VP)--
Wake Forest College has signed
its first Negro athlete to a grant-
in-aid contract, the Winston-
Salem Journal said it had learned.
The newspaper identified him
as Kenneth (Butch) Henry, a
quarterback at Greensboro's
Dudley Negro High School. The
paper said Henry has been ac-
cepted for admission to the col-
lege.
Henry would be the first Negro
to play on any Wake Forest team

and only the second to compete
in the Atlantic Coast Conference.
Darryl Hill played football at
Maryland last season.
Henry probably will be switched
to halfback. He played defensive
halfback at Dudley and was one
of the top defensive players in the
Western Negro 4-A Conference.
He is considered an excellent
passer and would give the Dea-
cons a passing threat at a half-
back spot.

Tebbetts Recovering;
Strickland in Charge

TUCSON, Ariz. M P)-Birdie Teb-
betts, Cleveland Indians' manager
who suffered a heart attack late
Wednesday night, was reported in
satisfactory condition yesterday,
but a club spokesman said he may
not be able to return to his du-
ties this year.
Nate Wallack, club publicist,
quoted Dr. Arthur Dudley, Teb-
betts' attending physician, and a
consulting heart specialist, Dr.

Samuel J. Grauman, as saying
the manager's condition was satis-
factory but more tests would be
made to determine the extent of
damage.
Wallack said Tebbetts probably
would be hospitalized at least four
to six weeks. The season opens
in less than two weeks, on April
14.
The publicist said Tebbetts, 52,
had been placed in the intensive
care unit at the hospital but only
because no private room was im-
mediately available.
Meanwhile, George Strickland,
former Indian infielder now a
coach with the team, was named
acting manager. He was told of
the job in a pre-dawn meeting
with owner Gabe Paul and Hoot
Evers, a vice-president.
