1,1984 THE MICHIGAN DAILY__ "'P Diamondmen Face Challenge from Eastern MINOR SPORTS ROUNDUP: Rugby Club Defeated, Tied By TOM WEINBERG One-of the most active weeks of the baseball season will open up this afternoon at Ferry Field as the Wolverines take on the Hurons from Eastern Michigan. The game is a rescheduled af- fair fromSaturday's washout dou- bleheader and is the first of five games this week for Moby Bene- dict's crew. The team Will take a three-day road trip to meet Notre Dame Thursday, Wisconsin Friday, then a big doubleheaderatNorthwest- ern on Saturday as the Big 'Ten, season moves into full swing. Barnhart To Pitch Benedict has given the nod to Clyde Barnhart today, but says that he'll probably use Bill Wahl and one other pitcher in three- inning stints, depending on the weather and how the pitchers' arms feel. The Wolverines currently have a 5-10 record and have lost seven of their last eight games. Eastern Michigan comes back today with its 1-3 record to make up just one of the games which were rained out Saturday. Barnhart appears to be the top pitcher on a staff that Benedict has expressed doubts about. The junior southpaw's seven-inning shutout over Central Michigan a week ago stands as the finest pitching performance of the year by the Wolverine squad which has an aggregate earned run average of 4.86. The Wolverines' hitting is be- low last year's average, which Benedict cited as the main reason for the failure to repeat as na- tional champions. The team is hitting at a .240 clip, despite im- provements by every player who played last year. Ron Tate, the senior center- fielder is the leading hitter, as he was last year. His .333 average is 22 points higher than last year. Captain Dave Campbell, now a shortstop, is just barely ahead of last year's pace, with a .265 aver- age. Earl Meyers, the leftfielder, is hitting .261. The three sophomores on the starting team, firstbaseman Chan Simonds, catcher Ted Sizemore, and rightfielder Bob Gilhooley have a combined average of .267, with Sizemore second to Tate only in the hitting department with his .305 average. The other two regulars, third- baseman George Skaff and s'c- ondbaseman Tom (Butch) Laslo are hitting at .220 and .217 re- spectively. Skaff saw limited ac- tion last year and hit a meager .190, while Laslo, a senior didn't play for the Wolverines. The team worked out yesterday in a batting practice-type game with the first team against the second. New volunteer Cazzie Russell was suited up for the prac- tice and worked out with the team. LIFTS INDIANA BAN:- NCAA Puts Kentucky on Probation By PERRY HOOD The Michigan Rugby Club ran its spring record to 4-4-1 this past weekend with a loss to Notre Dame and a tie with the Toronto Saracens. The tie with Toronto came in what club president John Auten described as "the best game we've played this year." The Saracens had taken second place in the tough.Ontario Rugby Union, and the Michigan White team was a decided underdog. The Michigan Blue team, with several inexperienced players, fell prey to a 23-0 blast by the Notre Dame ruggers for the Steevy Me- morial Cup. The cup, which will be a perpetual trophy to be played for between Michigan and Notre Dame until retired by three con- secutive victories, was presented by Webster Steevy of Wayland, Mich. The Notre Dame club had the greater depth and experience, bas- ed on their participation in a spring vacation tourney on the west coast. In their last home stand of the season, the Michigan ruggers will face Indiana and the Waukegan, Il Major League Standings Ill. club in a doubleheader this lowed by Wayne and Purdue coming weekend. 20-race series was sailed in * * guin dinghies with light winds Sailors Eighth vailing, except for a peric Michigan's intercollegiate sailing storms Saturday afternoon. club finished a distant eighth in The Michigan sailors fared last weekend's regatta at Ohio better the week before as State.

SAN FRANCISCO (P)-The Un- iversity of Kentucky was placed on probation for one year by the National Collegiate Athletic Asso- ciation yesterday because of an illegal conditioning program for football players. Slippery Rock State College and Prairie View A&M College also were put on probation while Indiana University, New Mexico. State and the University of Colo- rado were taken off the probation list. Kentucky is also forbidden from playing in post-season football competition for one year. .

The council said attendance was required and football coaches supervised the program. Other students also took part. Indiana, of the Big Ten, went on probation in 1960 for football re- cruiting violations, and since then the Hoosiers haven't been eligible for post-season football games or any of the NCAA post season tournaments or invitational events that cooperate with the collegiate ruling body. Since yesterday's action of the NCAA council meeting in San Francisco was immediate, Indiana athletes now will be eligible for the Drake relays this weekend, and subsequent events. The Slippery Rock, Pa., school was placed on a year's probation for playing in a non-sanctioned, bowl game last Dec. 7 against Northeastern Oklahoma State Col- lege at Oklahoma City. The latter school was not an NCAA member. NATIONAL LEAGUE W L: Pet.
