IN SPRING FOOTBALL: q, VEDNESDAY, APRIL 17, 1963 I 1- 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 Toronto Wins Third, Celtics Beat Lakers 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. Michigan Diamondinen Exhibit Prowess with Bat, on Mound <" 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).

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.

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.

"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." on us' 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." 1963 Spring, Weekend "ay-Out West" April 26, 21 Major League Standings AT SPECIAL TEAM PRICES GLOVES-UN I FORMS-SHOES BATS-BALLS Both 12-inch and 16-inch HAROLD S.
