urdue Plays 'M' Nine For First Place

SPORTS SHORTS:
Hill Rise Tabbed As Favorit

By TOM WEINBERG
Before last weekend, even the
most optimistic fans would never
have predicted that Michigan and
Purdue would meet this afternoon
for the undisputed reign over the
Big Ten baseball standings.

square off with identical 3-0 rec-
ords in the conference.
Purdue wound up ninth in the
Big Ten last year, but has almost
the entire squad returning. Last
week, the Boilermakers opened up
with wins over Iowa (6-4 and 3-0)
and Minnesota (3-2), to show that
they mean business in this year's
race for the Big Ten champion-
ship.

But that's exactly
stake at Ferry Field
the Boilermakers and

what's at
at 3:30 as
Wolverines

Black Hawks Place Five
On NHL All-Star Squad

Two familiar Michigan conquer-
ors dot the Boilermakers' lineup.
The potent backcourt combination
of Mel Garland and Bob Purkhiser
return to the scene of the basket-
ball upset that rocked the Michi-
gan team just before the regional
tournament of the NCAA.
Garland, a senior second base-
man, is hitting .364 as the Boiler-
makers move in. Purkhiser was
the leading pitcher in the Big
Ten last year as a sophomore with
a 0.74 ERA, but hasn't had a Big
Ten decision this season.
Purdue has three righthanders,
any of whomcould be Coach Joe
Sexson's pick to face' Wolverine
southpaw Clyde Barnhart in the
crucial contest.
Purdue Hurler
Either Purkhiser, C r e i g h t o n
Burns, or sophomore Steve Cun-
ningham is expected to get the
assignment. Both Burns and Cun-
ningham have a win in the con-
ference.

Barnhart's shutout at Wisconsin
last week puts him on top of the
Big Ten pitchers' list. His two
wins are both shutouts and over-
all, he owns a 2.21 earned run
average.
The Wolverines, who seem to
forget their mediocre 6-11 non-
conference record when they play
Big Ten competition, have allowed
just three runs in the Big Ten,
fewest of any team. Purdue's six
is the next best.
Pitchers Emerge
The suddenappearance of a
pitching staff out of what Coach
Moby Benedict had called a "ques-
tionable group," has lifted the
Wolverines to the top.
The respectable 3.81 earned run
average that the Wolverines now
own is a far cry from the 5.40
that they held after returning
from the spring trip to Arizona.
Since that time, the Blue has
won five games, lost three, and let
in just 20 runs in 68 innings, in-
cluding the nine that three Mich-
igan hurlers combined to allow

Tuesday in the resounding 9-3
loss to Notre Dame.
Purdue leaves town right after
the game today and trades places
with, defending champions Illi-
nois, who meet Michigan State
today.
Illinois Tomorrow
The Illini invade Ferry Field to-
morrow for a doubleheader in
which the Wolverines' two new-
found pitching stars are expected
to throw. Juniors Bill Wahl and
Marlin Pemberton have been giv-
en the nod against the Illini who
currently are 0-3, to the surprise
of many experts who gave them
an excellent chance for a shot at
their own crown.
Illinois is expected to throw
two righthanders against the Wol-
verines' righties tomorrow. Their
coach, Lee Eilbracht, will prob-
ably use Bill Tookey and last year's
top winner in the Big Ten, Jerry
Weygandt, who has had his lumps
this year en route to his 4.45
ERA.

LOUSIVILLE - Hill Rise offi-
cially tossed down the gauntlet
yesterday and dared Northern
Dancer and 10 other of the na-
tion's finest 2-year-old through-
breds to beat him in the 90th run-
ning of the Kentucky Derby.
As the names of the 12 horses,
survivors of an original list of 138
nominees, were dropped into the
entry box, Hill Rise was made the
6-5 choice for tomorrow's 11/4-mile
race at Churchill Downs before
some 100,000 fans and a national
television audience.
If all 12 are in line for the start
at 4:30 p.m., EST, the gross value
of America's most glamorous horse
race will be $156,800 with $114,300
and a garland of red roses going
to the winner.,
The winning owner also will
have a $5,000 gold cup to display
proudly. The race will be carried
on television and radio, CBS, from
4 to 5 p.m., EST.

A. Pope Jr.'s El Peco Ranch, fin-
ished his Derby perparations with
an eye-catching performance in
last Tuesday's Derby Trial. It was
his eighth straight victory after
finishing third in his first two
races as a 2-year-old.
Pope also won the 1962 Derby
with Decidedly, who hung up the
stake record of 2:00 2-5.

Hull Okay
DETROIT -- Chicago I
Hawk hockey star Bobby Hu]
mained in satisfactory cond
at Detroit's Henry Ford Hos
last night.
Hull suffered minor hand
juries early Wednesday when
car skidded on wet pavement
struck the rear of a semi-tr
truck in Allen Park. Hos
authorities said he is being
for observation.
Allen Park police ticketed
for "failure to stop in the ass
clear distance ahead." Hull
police the truck pulled ou
front of him and he was unab
stop.
Hull's brother, Dennis, 19
Pointe Anne, Ont., and
Montgomery, of Detroit, were
sengers in the car. Neither
seriously injured.

MONTREAL (P)-The Chicago
Black Hawks took five of six
places on the National Hockey
League's All-Star team for the
1963-64 season and the Stanley
Cup champion Toronto Maple
Leafs only one.
Results of the All-Star voting
by sports writers and broadcasters
in the six NHL cities, released yes-
terday, show that Chicago's vet-
eran left winger, Bobby Hull, was
the only unanimous choice for a
first team spot and that Detroit's
Gordie Howe' set a record when
he was picked for the second
team.
In addition to Hull, the NHL
goal-scoring champion during the
past season, the Chicago players
named were Glenn Hall at goal,
Pierre Pilote at defense, Stan
Mikita at center, and Ken Whar-
ram at right wing.
Toronto's.first team player was
defenseman Tim Horton, who re-
ceived the smallest point total of
the six in the voting.
Chosen, for the second team
were goalie Charlie Hodge, de-
fenseman Jacques Laperriere and,
center Jean Beliveau of the Mon-
treal Canadiens, Chicago defense-
man Elmer Vasko and Howe and
Frank Mahovlich of Toronto on
the wings.
Howe's selection for the second
team broke a tie between him and
the retired Maurice Rocket Rich-
ard of Montreal for receiving all-
star honors the greatest number
of times.
. It was Howe's 15th appearance
on the first or second NHL teams.
He and Richard both were first-
team choices in eight seasons and
previously had been on the sec-
ond team six times each.
The 18-man selection commit-
tee picks all-star teams for each
half of the NHL season with
points being awarded on a 5-3-1

basis. Total points determine the
over-all teams and the bonus
money given by the NHL.
The league gives a $1,000 bonus
for over-all first team selection
and $500 for second team plus
awards of $500 and $250 to those
selected in each half season.
The second half voting put
Hodge ahead of Hall at goal al-
though the Chicago player had a
big over-all margin with 132 points
to Hodge's 07.
Wharram and Howe tied for
the second half spot at left wing
with Wharram getting the edge
by one first place vote. Each will
receive the $500 bonus.
Senkowski
Gains rfinals
REGGIO CALABRIA, Italy (P)-
Ray Senkowski, former Michigan
number one netman and Big Ten
singles champ in his sophomore
year, gained the mixed doubles
quarterfinals with Vicxy Berner
of Canada here yesterday in an in-
ternational tennis tournament.
The pair defeated Jaime Pinto
Brave of Brazil and Carol Robin
of New York, 6-4, 6-4.
Senkowski and Antonio Maggi
of Italy were eliminated in the
men's doubles. They lost to Toni
Tobin and Ron MacKenzie of
Australia, 6-1, 6-3.
Senkowski closed out his ten-
nis career at Michigan last spring
after three years of play in the
team's .top spot. In that time,
the Wolverines won two confer-
ence titles, and Senkowski tallied
a first and two runner-up medals
in first singles play.
