Halfback Search Begins
By JIM BERGER
Michigan football coach Bump
Elliott got his first glimpse of the
1963 Wolverine gridders yesterday
as over 100 turned out for the first
day of spring football practice.
The Wolverines will practice
four days a week on the Ferry
Field practice area and each Sat-
urday will scrimmage at Michigan
Stadium. On Fridays Elliott has
scheduled no practice as it will be
left open in case one of the sched-
uled daily sessions is cancelled be-
cause of rain. Elliott's objective is
five practice sessions a week.
The climax of the spring prac-
tice is the annual intersquad clash.
This year it will be held May 11,
and Elliott will experiment with
the novel inning football plan.
Talent Hunt
Spring practice generally em-
phasizes fundamentals and it gives
the Michigan coaches a good op-
portunity to survey the new talent
and prepare for the fall.
Despite Michigan's miserable 2-
7 record (1-6 in the Big Ten), El-
liott is in an enviable position. His
graduation losses were held to a

YOU'RE OUT!-Harvey Chapman is tagged out at the plate in one of Michigan's baseball games
here last year. Such action will soon be starting again as the Wolverine squad opens the home season
here tomorrow as they host Eastern Michigan University. Game time is 3:34 p.m.

Junior rightfielder Ron Tate led
the Wolverine hit parade on the
Arizona trip with- a sparkling .400
average.
The team average was .265,
which is just two points below
last year's batting mark of .267.
The percentage should really be
expected to fall somewhat since
the enlarged strike zone adopted
by the major leagues this year is
also being used in college ball.
Three others are banging the
ball extremely well. Jim Steckley
is at .368, Jim Newman has a
.353 mark, and Harvey Chapman,
the top hitter on the 1962 squad,
is hitting .324.
Tate also is the leading RBI
man with 10. Chapman is the top
extra-base hitter. He has three
doubles, a triple, and a home run.
Speedy Joe Jones has pilfered
five bases already to head the
team in that category.
Southpaw Fritz Fisher leads the
mound core with a 3-0 record. He
turned in two complete games en
route. The other decisions belong
to Dave Roebuck (1-0), Jim Bo-
bel (1-2), and Jerry Hribar (0-1).

Shifty Dave Keon's unassisted
goal in the third period sparked
Toronto to a 4-2 victory over the
Detroit Red Wings last night that
gave the Maple Leafs a command-
ing 3-1 lead in the National Hock-
ey League's Stanley Cup finals.
Keon's dazzling solo rush
around two Detroit defenders with
less than 11 minutes to play cap-
ped a comeback battle by the
Leafs, who twice spotted Detroit
one-goal leads.
By winning, the Leafs return
home to Toronto for tomorrow's
fifth game in the best-of-7 playoff
series needing only one more vic-
tory to capture their second
mos't prized trophy.
Keon, who set up Toronto's first
goal, picked up a loose puck at
center ice and streaked in with
it, darting first to his right and
then to 'his left before ramming it
past Terry Sawchuk.
Eight minutes after Keon's goal,
Red Kelly fired in his second goal
Detroit, fighting to square the
series, dominated most of the
game until wilting in the last
period.
The Red Wings went ahead on
Gordie Howe's goal in the opening
minutes and then took a 2-1 lead
in the second period on a marker
by rookie Eddie Joyal.
George Armstrong was Toron-
to's other scorer, turning in Keon's
pass for the goal that tied it 1-1
early in the second period.

Johnny Bower's spectacular play
in the Toronto goal prevented th~e
Red Wings from running up a
sizeab~le lead in the first two per-
iods. The 38-year-old Bower,
sprawling on the ice time after
time, kicked out 38 shots, 17 in
the second period.
Sawchuk also was impressive in
the Detroit net until Toronto's
third period assault. He had 29
saves for the night.
Howe got Detroit started at 2:54
of the opening period on a blast
from just inside the blue line. It
was too hot for Bower to handle
and streaked'off his glove into the
net.
Detroit's lead held until Arm-
strong tied it for Toronto at 1:17
of the second period on Keon's
pass from the corner.

The Boston Celtics withstood a
late Los Angeles rally and grabbed
a two-game lead in their National
Basketball Association champion-
ship playoffs with a 113-106 vic-
tory over the Lakers last night.
Bob Cousy, Sam Jones, Frank
Ramsey, Bill Russell and Tommy
Heinsohn all had shared equally
in hero roles for Boston previous-
ly when the Lakers closed the gap
to four points with four minutes
remaining.
But Ramsey tossed in five of
Boston's final seven points and the
Celtics stood 2-0 in the final best-
of-7 playoff, with the third game
to be played at Los Angeles Wed-
nesday night.
Sam Jones led Boston scorers
with 27 points, one more than
Heinsohn contributed. Elgin Bay-
lor of the Lakers was high scorer
for the game with 30 points while
teammate Jerry West had 28.
The Celtics, minus versatile
rookie John Havlicek, trailed by
seven points in the second period
but came back to notch a four-
point advantage, 50-46, at inter-
mission.
minimum and a sizeable group of
returning lettermen along with
what is regarded as a "good"
freshman team will give the Mich-
igan head mentor plenty of talent
to choose from.
Elliott's heavyiest loss naturally
is halfback Dave Raimey who was
Michigan's leading scorer and
ground gainer the past two years.
Other losses of note are quarter-
back Dave Glinka, end, and last
year's captain, Bob Brown, and
guard John Minko.
Several of last year's corps are
not out for spring practice due to
their participation in other spring
sports. Halfback Harvey Chapman,
a senior, is playing in his second
season with the baseball team.
Junior halfback Denis Jones and
senior fullback Roger Schmitt are
with the track squad while junior
quarterback Frosty Evashevski is
playing for the Michigan golf
team.
Back to Guiard
Joe O'Donnell, captain of the
1963 squad, will return to his posi-
tion of two years ago. O'Donnell
played guard his sophomore year
and was switched to tackle last
season. Plans call for his return to
guard.
Elliott's overall objective is to
develop more power and depth up
front as well as search for more
backfield speed. A good look at
some of the upcoming sophomores
and returning lettermen might
give the Michigan coaches and
fans an indication of what the
fall might bring.
Some of the sophomore pros-
pects that Elliott will be especial-
ly interested in are at halfback.
With Raimey gone the hunt for a
man who can run around the
beefy Big Ten lines has become
critical. Such newcomers as Rick
Sygar, Dorie Reid, John Rowser
and Ron LaBeau are the candi-
dates mostlikely to step into
Raimey's shoes.

"Excellent, just excellent," was
the first thought that popped into
Coach Bert Katzenmeyer's mind
in describing how the golf team
did.'in its spring trip.
"The weather was good for the
entire week, the facilities were
fine, and I was very pleased with
the golf we played," he added.
For the first time since initiat-
ing spring trips, Katzenmeyer sta-
tioned the squad at Coral Gables,
la. The team for the past few
years has gone to Pinehurst, N.C.,
but bad weather has cut some of
the, trips rather short. This year
it was different and the team
played accordingly.
In two .matches against the Uni-
versity of Miami, the Wolverines
dropped the first, 8%-122, but
pulled out a squeaker the next day
with an 11-10 victory.
Civil War
The real competition got under
way later in the week, though, in
the Miami Invitational Golf Tour-
nament over the par 71 Biltmore
Golf Course in Coral Gables.
Eleven college golf teams from
south of the Mason-Dixon Line
plus the University's squad met
for three days of medal play.
Each team entered seven play-
ers with the best four being used
for the official-scoring. Michigan
finished fourth with a 1209 aggre-
gate behind the winner, Univer-
sity of Miamo, who got 1181, Uni-
versity of North Carolina, 1189,
and Rollins- College (Florida),
1197.,
"Our boys kept improving with
each round," stated Katzenmeyer
as he glanced over his score book.
"The good , weather we had in
Ann Arbor prior to the vacation
week allowed us to get outside
the practice tee which helped
a great deal."

Places Sixth
Letterman Dave Cameron head-
ed the Wolverines with an even
300 total which was good, enough
to place sixth in the individual
competition. Sophomore Pete Pas-
sink and senior Tom Pendlebury
shot 302's for a ninth place fin-
ish. Passink shot the lowest round
for Michigan, a one-under par 70
in his third assault on the course.
The other members were "Frosty"
Evashevski, out for varsity golf
for the first time, 306; junior Tom
Clark, who was ineligible for com-
petition last year, 311; sophomore
Mark Yahn, 311; and captain
Chuck Newton, 312.
Those who did not make the
trip were junior letterman Gary
Mouw and senior Mike Good, who
won his letter two years ago.
Katzenmeyer summed up the
trip, "We have a lot more depth
than we had last year. The ex-
perience the juniors gained from
competition last year gives us a
much stronger team."
