AGE lIX THE MICHIGAN DAILY THURSDAY, APRIL 26, 10K SIX TINE MICHIGAN DAILY THURSDAY, APRIL 26, Baseball, Tennis I Wolverines Bomb Fighting Irish, 18-7; Merullo Sparks 'M' with Two Homers earns Score Impressive Victories Netmen Win Home Opener; Shutout Ohio Wesleyan, 9-0 L By BILL BULLARD Michigan defeated Notre Dame 18-7 in a wild offensive battle yes- terday at Ferry Field. The Wolverines scored in every inning except the first and last in running up their 18-run total on 18 hits. Notre Dame had its big- gest splurge in the sixth inning wlen it knocked in six of its seven runs. Aided Cause Four home runs aided Michi- gan's cause. Catcher Joe Merullo hit his first home run in the sec- ond inning to give Michigan a 1-0 lead. His next homer was a three- run blast in the third inning. Jim Steckley sent Harvey Chapman in to score from first base on his home run in the fourth and pitch- er Fritz Neubrecht clouted his in the fifth. Neubrecht's home run was re- venge of a sort after Notre Dame's Jim Stouffer had driven his first pitch in the top of the fifth over the fence in left-centerfield. Sat Out First Patt Regular outfielders Dennis Spal- la and Ron Tate, both lefthanded batters, sat out the first part of the game as Notre Dame started with a righthanded pitcher. Spalla and Tate were replaced by right- handed Eddie Hood and Dick Post. Coach Don Lund said, "We've got the type of ball club where we have to switch the players around. All the guys have to be ready to play at any time." Michigan used 16 players in the game including three pitchers. Fritz Fisher started for the- Wol- verines and was awarded the vic- tory after shutting out the Irish on three hits in four innings. He only worked four innings because Coach Lund plans to start him in one of the two games against Minnesota on Saturday.. Scored Off Neubrecht All Notre Dame runs were scored off Neubrecht. After Stouf- fer's homer greeted him in the fifth, he struck out two batters and got another on an easy grounder to end the inning. But in the sixth inning, he faced seven batters whom he was not able to retire before he was relieved by John Kerr. Four of the opponents singled and three of them were walked by Neubrecht as the first six to face him scored runs. Kerr subdued the Irish effec- tively although not w i t h o u t threatening situations. He was helped by two timely double plays but did much himself as he only walked two and gave up three hits in the four innings. Scored Five Runs After Merullo hit his home run in the fifth, Michigan scored five runs each in the third and fourth innings. With two out in the third, Dick Honig made it to second base on a throwing error by the third baseman. He stole third base and scored on Steckley's single to cen- ter. Chapman had walked after Honig, went to third on Steckley's single and scored along with Dick Post on Merullo's second home run. In the fourth inning, Honig drove in a run with a double, Chapman knocked in two runs with a single, and Steckley scored after Chapman on his home run. Neubrecht hit his home run in the fifth and Michigan finished the scoring with two runs in the sixth and four in the seventh.

The Wolverine netmen dropped only two sets while initiating the spring schedule that will see Mich- igan battling for its fourth con- secutive Big Ten title. Clean Sweep Yesterday's clean sweep over the Ohioans brightened Wolverine hopes. "I'm really pleased with the team's performance," commented mentor Bill Murphy. "And Ohio Wesleyan has a fairly good team." But the visitors couldn't match Ann Arbor's Big Ten depth. It wasn't until the sixth-man singles match that Ohio Wesleyan could chalk up a set, 6-4, but Michigan's Ron Linclau evened the score over Chaz Moazed with a 6-3 tally in the second set and took the victory with a 6-4 win in the third. The match was Linclau's first competi- tion on the courts for the Wolver- ines in scheduled intercollegiate play. Into Winning Stride Ray Senkowski, Michigan's man on top and Big Ten champ last year as a sophomore, got into win- ning stride with a 6-2, 6-0 victory over OWU's Bill Poist. Senkowski broke Poist's service-game wins with the score 3-2 in the first set- and then handily smashed his way for the victory.

Dubie Wins Senior Gerry Dubie bounced Ohio's Dick Gordon, 6-2, 6-1, in the number three slot. Michigan captain Jim Tenney won, 6-3, 6-0 over Darrel Lauer, and Tom Beach bounced Dan Peck in fifth singles competition 6-3, 6-2. Tenney and Dubie paired up in the number two doubles slot to take the 6-3, 6-1 measure of Ohio's Peck-Bourgard duo while Beach and Linclau downed Lauer and Moazed, 6-2, 6-1. Action in the first doubles pro- vided the hottest action on the varsity courts, Fauquier and Sen- kowski teaming up to nip Poist and Gordon, 6-1, 4-6, 6-3. Lose Second Set With a first-set win behind them ,the Wolverine duo fell be- hind in the second, 3-0. A come- back attempt that set Michigan back into a 4-3 lead failed as the Ohioans took the second set on three straight games, 6-4. In the third stanza the Wolver- ine pair battled into a 5-3 lead and then took advantage of Sen- kowski's powerful service to take the set and match. Coach Murphy's netmen take to the road today to meet Detroit, a squad suffering from a lack of experienced talent. Saturday the Wolverines kick off the Big Ten schedule with Purdue at Lafay- ette, Ind. The next home meet is with I1- linois on May 4.

SAT QUARTERBACK: Glinka Again Top Candidate A i By JERRY KALISH U ______ r Suff a In old Bavaria when the beer tastes extra good, they lift their steins and sing "eins, zwei . . g'suffal" (tastes so good you drink it up-one, two.) eins, zwei, g'suffa C '\\ ' Being pressed for his job by a strong group of - candidates is getting to be a yearly thing for veteran quarterback Dave Glinka. But it appears again that the junior letterman will get the nod from head football coach Bump Elliott to start the season next fall. Take It Away "They'll have to take the job away frpm him," said Elliott. And from past performance that may be hard to do. Two years ago as a freshman, Glinka showed enough in spring practice to take over the starting assignment despite John Stamos, who was considered the prime contender, and highly regarded Bob Chandler. Last spring, too, Glinka couldn't be pushed out of the picture by either Chandler or Frosty Eva- shevski, though Evashevski was pushing Glinka for the slot until he was hurt right before the first game. Glinka from then on was brewed in the old Bavarian tradition. DIST BY ALL STAR BEV. CO., ANN ARBOR ~°°Geyer Brat. Brewing Co.-franlcsnmuth, Mich. never challenged, and he wound up last season with a 48 per cent completion mark. No Exception This spring is no exception. Elliott considers this the finest group of quarterback prospects since Glinka first won his starting position, and the Michigan mentor hopes "the competition will push him and the other candidates." Osterland, Loken Get Gym---Awards Coach Newt Loken and Captain Tom Osterland of the Michigan gymnastics team have been awarded recognition for their ef- forts which led to the Wolverine's recent Big Ten Championship. Loken, whose 1962 champion- ship team was his second title- winner in as many years, was named midwest "Coach of the Year." The honor is given annually by the National Association of Gymnastics Coaches. The announcement was made by Eric Hughes, University of Wash- ington, chairman of the selection committee. Osterland was the recipient of the Western Conference Medal for proficiency' in scholarship and athletics. While maintaining a B overall scholastic average, Oster- land won Big Ten and NAAU titles on the trampoline while placing a close second in the NCAA tournament. Ranking high on Elliott's list are of course letterman Chandler and Evashevski who is recovered from a knee operation last fall. Since he did not appear in any games, the Big Ten awarded him an extra season of eligibility, and the sophomore has three full sea- sons left. Changed to Halfback Tom Prichard, the other letter- man signal caller, is being changed to left halfback. "Tom is a good runner, and we think he can help us more at half- back," Elliott explained. "We're experimenting now in the spring, and we know he can always be shifted back." With the quarterback question "narrowed" to three veterans, El- liott's problem is more pleasantly complicated by the fine showing of freshman Bob Timberlake, a 6'3", 210 pounder from Franklin, Ohio. "He looked good the first scrim- mage we held last Saturday after- noon," Elliott smiled, "but he lacks experience which is to be expected for a freshman." Hard To Compare With spring practice in the ear- ly stages, Elliott finds "it hard to compare the strengths and weaknesses of each because we haven't practiced much." But if Glinka shows senior style, Evashevski and Chandler prove that they are fully recovered from the injuries that sidelined them previously, and Timberlake proves that he is the best freshman quar- terback in recent years, then El- liot's Quarterback Club could be- come a powerful organization. And there's always the possibil- ity of trading one to Michigan State f or a line. 41 The Dascola Barbers Near the Michigan Theatre i FOR QUADRANGULAR MEET: Michigan Links ters Travel To Illinois Pal al 1 ! I .. AT OUR NEW ARBORLAND STORE By GARY WINER Coach Bert Katzenmeyer's golf team will leave for Champaign to- day where it will meet highly-re- garded Purdue, defending Big Ten champion Ohio State, and host Illinois Saturday in a quadrangle 36-hole golf match. Line-up changes for the Wol- verines definitely will be made fol- lowing last week's surprising per- formance by two of the starting sophomores. "Changes are defi- nitely in order," stated Katzen- meyer. "I'm taking last week's first five starters but I'm using an- other sixth man." Returning Letterman Tom Ahern, a returning letter- man from last year who just joined the squad this week, will replace Hallock in this match. The five definite starters in order are Captain Bill Newcomb, Chuck Newton, Tom Pendlebuay, Dave Cameron and Gary Mouw. "The team did okay for its first match," Katzenmeyer continued. "Purdue and Indiana had at least one more week of practice than we because they went toPinehurst .:fi'ii,%:««i:%7::'««: %«t; Ct:%.:%%r$:%rYr;%«:%: OF NEW HAVEN TRADITIONALLY TAILORED SHIRTS BY A FAMOUS MAKER, HERE IN SHORT SLEEVED SUMMER STYLES, IN A VARIETY OF LIGHTWEIGHT FABRICS the week prior to our trip. The weather was just beautiful for them but we were rained out." The Michigan coach was making no excuses for some of his team's high scores, but feels they will come down. "This team has it in itself to play a lot better golf than last week. I would be aw- fully disappointed in them if they didn't show better games before the Big Ten meet." No Surprise Purdue's victory in the meet at Columbus came as no surprise to Katzenmeyer. "They have a good team, but I know they can play a lot better than they did then. As for Indiana sharing the lead, I think they're a good team but they won't improve that much." Defending league champion Ohio State is having its troubles since losing Jack Nicklaus and Mike Poloski. The Buckeyes over their home course finished last in the seven-team match held over the weekend, a full 30 strokes off the pace. Katzenmeyer has his golfers mostly on the practice tee this week Speculating on the champion- ship meet this year, which will be held at this same Illinois golf course, Katzenmeyer was hesitant to make any broad judgments this early in the season. "If anyone is going to win, they're probably go- ing to have to beat Purdue. They always come up with a good team." Finish Fourth The Boilermakers finished fourth to the Buckeyes last year in the tournament. "Of course, there's al- ways Minnesota to consider," be added. "I was impressed with that team two years ago when they were all sophomores and now its an all senior team. Yes, I think the winner this year will probably have to beat Purdue and Minne- sota." The Wolverines are getting an added break by playing at Cham- paign before the Big Ten match. The more times a team plays a course the better it gets to know how the course is laid out. "That course has a terrific wind condi- tion which makes it tough on any golfer," Katzenmeyer concluded. 'I : t ' -, I weight cham- - pullover shirt. n-down collar ue or putty. 5.95 .
