lineup as he expected to use
against Bowling Green. The re-

sophomore Ted Sizemore, who has
won the position while letterman
Pete Adams is having arm trouble.
Chan Simonds and Tom Laslo will
cover the initial and keystone
sacks, respectively, while the hot

start the game at shortstop.
Fly Chasers
In the outfield, playing left,

be Earl Meyers, Ron Tate and

Benedict will go with senior Jim
Bobel on the mound in the first-
game. "He has looked real good,"
says the coach of this righthanded
pitcher. Clyde Barnhart, a' left-
handed junior, will start the night-
cap.
Benedict says that he will have
his pitchers "go three innings or
maybe more, depending on how
things go" and then give the other
pitchers a chance. "I e;Zpct that

right-hander against us," he adds.
For Experience
Coach Benedict says that he will
probably use quite a few players
to give them more experience.
"After all," he says, "we haven't
played in over 'two weeks, and
we've only been working outside
for three days. I guess you could
sum up the team in two words-
inexperienced and uncertain."
While in Arizona he noted that
the team "made a lot of mistakes,
particularly in our defensive phase
of the game." But in'the last two
weeks of practice, he says that he
feels that the boys have made a
great improvement.
Central will arrive in Ann Arbor
with its 18-man squad, which in-
cludes one freshman, after a
,doubleheader against Eastern
Michigan.

AUGUSTA P) -- While Arnie's
Army spurred him on by land and
air, charged-up Arnold Palmer
reeled off birdies on four of the
last six holes yesterday for a four-
under-par 68 which sent him into
a commanding four-stroke lead af-
ter 36 holes in the Masters Golf
Tournament.
Added to his first round 69,

Rug gers Play
Ontario Club
The Michigan Rugby Club,
presently sporting a 3-2 spring
record, takes on an all-star aggre-
gation from southwest Ontario
this afternoon in a doubleheader.
Both games will be played on
the new rugby field just southeast
of Michigan Stadium. At 2 p.m.
the less experienced ruggers will
face off against their sOntario
counterparts, while the more ex-
perienced Michigan: team' meets
the first all-star team at 4:00 p.m.

National's sun-soaked 6,980 yards
gave the Latrobe, Pa., links idol
a total of 137, seven under par,
and made him an overwhelmingj
favorite to capture an unprece-
dented fourth Masters crown.
He also was in position - by
duplicating his efforts of- the first
two days of this spring spectacle
-to tie the record of 274 set by
Ben Hogan in 1953.
Palmer, hitting his irons to the
greens like rifle shots and putting
for birdies on 16 of the 18 holes,
lunged out of a five-way traffic
jam for first place and soared
four shots ahead of his closest
pursuer, Gary Player of South
Africa.
Player, the little Johannesburg
precisionist in perennial black
garb, had to sink a 25-foot putt
on the final hole for a 72 and
141. The raisin-munching South

African won here in 1961, the
first and only, foreigner to do it,
and lost in a playoff to .Palmer
in 1962.
Another stroke farther back,
five behind Palmer, were slender
Don January of Dallas and former
U.S. Open champion Gene Littler:
of LaJolla, Calif., with identical
70-72-142 scores and almost iden-
tical grief.
January dumped two tee shots
in the water on the 155-yard pen-
insula hole 12th hole and had to
chip in from off the green for a
triple bogey 6.
Littler came to the final hole
four under par for the tourna-
ment, hit his tee shot into a
treacherous lie, hooked his ap-
proach into the crowd, pitched on
and three-putted for a double
bogey 6.
Similar miseries plagued the

24-year-old defending champion
Jack Nicklaus, the player desig-
nated to succeed Palmer as the
No. 1 man in professional golf.
The 210-pound husky from
Columbus bogied three of the last
seven holes for a 73, which put
him at 144. He has seven big shots
to make up on Palmer in the final
two rounds today and Sunday,
and that's a man-sized order.
The defending champion was
bracketed with eight other pros
and amateur Billy Joe Patton of
Morganton, N.C., at even par 144
and there were seven players be-
tween him and the top.
Behind Palmer, Player, Janu-
ary and Littler came a trio tied at
143. They were Bob Charles, the
left-handed British Open cham-
pion from New Zealand, 71-72;
Champagne Tony Lema, 75-68,
and Dave Marr, 70-73.

TRADING MARKET:
Redskins Acquire Huff from Giants

ANNUAL SPRING GLEE CLUB

By The Associated Press
The Washington Redskins, try-
ing to bolster their shaky line-
backing, have obtained Sam Huff
in a five player deal with the
New York Giants.
The Giants, who have two holes
in their defensive line, received
250-pound defensive end Andy
Stynchula in return. The Red-
skins also gave up Dick James,
who led the NFL in punt returns
.last fall, and next season's fifth
draft choice.

Rookie defensive hin e m a n
George Seals also came to the
Redskins. But Huff and Stynchula
were the key men in the deal.
In New York, Giant Coach Al-
lie Sherman said, "We felt we
had to strengthen both our de-
fensive line and our offensive
backfield and the price came
high."
Sherman added, "Stynchula, in
our estimation is one of the best
young defensive linemen in the
league "
Huff, a frequent All-Pro selec-'
tion, was shocked over his unex-
pected, trade. After getting the
news he commented, "I don't
know what I'll do yet-whether
I'll-play football next year or not.
Philadelphia, Detroit Deal
The Detroit Lions have traded
halfback-fullback Ollie Matson

and defensive tackle Floyd Peters
to the Philadelphia Eagles for
offensive right tackle J. D. Smith.
Smith, a 250-pounder, is ex-
pected to take. over the right
tackle position vacated by the
death of Lucien Reeberg.
** *
Tigers Acquire Bullpen Help
The Detroit Tigers have acquir-
ed relief pitcher Larry. Sherry in
a trade with the Los Angeles
Dodgers.
Sherry,. the star of the 1959
World Series, was obtained in ex-
change for minor league outfielder
Lou Johnson and $10,000.t
The Tigers had reportedly been
looking for a pitcher to add more
depth to the bullpen.
In another baseball deal, the
Milwaukee Braves sent catcher
Bob Uecker to the St. Louis Car-
dinals for catcher Jim Coker and
former Illinois football and base-
ball star Gary Kolb, an outfielder.

tager Praises Spirited Tankers

By MIKE MEYERS
"It was, one of the most plea-,
irable teams I've ever worked
kith. They swam real well and
veryone worked hard."
These were coach Gus Stager's
ords of praise for the 1964 edi-
on of Michigan's swimming
am. In a way, it's all he could
ay. They weren't a great team.
This year's team completes a
hey were a good team during a
ear which produced the toughest
ompetition and the greatest
wimmers ever in the NCAA.
Powerhouses like champion
outhern California, Indiana, and
'ale took' the spotlight away
-om the NCAA fourth-place Wol-
erines' fine performers.
The tankers compiled a 6-3
ual meet record this. year. Two
f the losses were to the strong
oosiers.; In the Big Ten Meet,
he Wolverine swimmers finished a
ose second to Indiana.

ycle, which oscillates between
reat swimmers and good swim-
lers.
Captain Jeff Moore described
he cycle like this: "When a team
as a collection of super-stars,,
11 the good swimmers in the
untry want to go to that
rhool. Michigan had such greats
s (Frank) Legacki and (Tony)
ashnick. (Michigan won the na-
onal title, 1957-59.) We won
ie championship when I was a
'eshman, 'and since then the
resent seniors have just been
arrying the team to respectable
nishes."
No one can complain about the
respectable" finishes over the
,st three years-fourth in the
ation in 1962, third in 1963,
nd fourth again in 1964.
"Now with Farley, Robie, King-
7, Scheerer Groftand theuoth-
5, there is a new crop of super-
;ars. I 'am very optimistic about
ext year's chances for a nation=
championship," Moore added.
Florida Sun
An important part of this year's
aining was the Florida trip dur-
ig Christmas vacation.
Stager comments that, "the
wys worked hard in Florida. The
aining sessions keyed them to
well-paced season which cul-
inated in the meets to benefit
ch iidividual.",,
Stager's philosophy is that there
nothing to coaching a swim-
ing team, except getting the
st material and then developing
by hard, hard work.
Moore adds, "We were probably
the best condition of any
[chigan swimming team when
went to Florida. We had start-
working out early in the win-
r, and we had a 50-meter pool
ourselves down there."
Farley Shines
Many of the major highlights
the season were provided by

sophomore Bill Farley. He estab-
lished new varsity and pool rec-
ords in' the 200, 500, 1000 and 1650
yard freestyles. In the NCAA's
he just missed qualifying in two
races, but finished second to
USC's Roy Saari in the 1650.
Several Michigan tankers have
also accrued post-season honors.
Junior Ed Bartsch swam his best
time ever to win the 200-yard
backstroke in the AAU's. Fresh-
man- Russ Kinge y also excelled
in this event fiuishing third in
the 200 and fourth in the 100.
Carl Robie, defending AAU
champion who holds the existing
world's record in the 200-meter
butterfly, was second in the in-
door 200-yard event.
All swimmers who place in the

AAU's automatically qualify for
the Olympic trials. Paul Scheerer
scored in the breaststroke event,
and Rich Walls placed sixth in
the 100-yard sprint.
Platform Divers
Platform divers John Candler
and Gregg Shuff round out the
list of Michigan qualifyers.
Farley, who didn't go to the
AAU's can still qualify for the
Olympic trials by beating a cut-
off time, which he can do, ac-
cording to Stager, "three times
in a row with a couple minutes
rest in between."
Stager concluded that because
the team really didn't have a
shot at the top, "the NCAA
Championships were sort of a let-
down.
