'ELL-TALE BATTLE FOR NETMEN:

Northwestern Poses Title Threat

By TOM ROWLAND
Michigan will get a stiff ap-
praisal of just how good itE
chances are for a fifth straight
Big Ten title this spring when
the Wolverine netmen face North-
western tomorrow afternoon at
2:00 on the varsity courts.
The Wildcats finished a strong
second to Coach Bill Murphy's
crew a year ago and have been
coming on strong this spring with ,
six returning lettermen, two Big
Ten singles champions, and a pair
of outstanding sophomores.
The Wolverines are still smart-
ing from a 5-4 setback at the
hands of Michigan State last
Tuesday, the first time in nine
years that the Spartans have man-
aged to come out on top. The loss
gave the Blue metmen a 7-5 sea-
son mark with a 5-1 total in con-
ference play.
The Wildcats trounced State
earlier this spring, 9-0, and have
been flying high with a run of
shutout Big: Ten wins to boost the

Northwestern season record to 20-
*1. The only loss this year came
sdown at Miami, where the Hur-
Sricanes, third-place finishers in
the NCAA tourney during the
*summer, won 6-1.
Top Attraction
A probable Ray Senkowski-
Marty Riessen battle in first
singles highlights the individual
attractions-Senkowski was Big
Ten singles champ two years ago
*before losing the crown to Riessen
last year. Riessen, the son of the
*Northwestern coach, finished sec-
ond in the NCAA's last sununer, is
*a Davis Cup veteran who has lost
only one dual-meet match in his
collegiate career.
Senkowski is winding up his
third year as top Michigan racket-
man after himself winning a sec-
ond-place NCAA berth and picking
up Big Ten singles and doubles
trophies in his sophomore season.
The Wolverine senior is being
bothered by a sore right hand but

hopes to have it in shape for
tomorrow's meet.
Neither has ever lost a Big Ten
dual-meet match.
thRse bhasnbeen alternating at
the nmberone pot with sopho-
more Clark Graebner this year,
but it's likely that Riessen will get
the top call for the Michigan
meet. That would leave Graebner,
1961 Wimbleton junior titlist, to
face Michigan captain Harry Fau-
quier on the number two court.
Fauquier, defending Big Ten
second singles champion, played
is first Big Ten match for the
Wolverines this spring against
Michigan State after a stint at

"Wherge have all the fullbacks
gone" might have been a ques-
tion running through the mind of
Coach '"Bump" Elliott at the Ohio
State game last year.
Now the question might be,
"Where have they all come from?"
And the question would be valid,
because Elliott finds himself with

ly solid position."
Anthony Improved
Anthony, a 200-pounder from
Cincinnati, seems to be the likely
prospect for top fullback at the
moment. Since his change .back
to an inside linebacker position on
d'efense his play has picked up
considerably.
"I think I've improved tremen-
dously, especially on defense. I'd
like to improve my blocking
though." Anthony is not. particu-
larly heavy for a fullback, but
says, I'd like to stay around 200. I
don't feel that I'd need more
weight."
Sparkman Dissatisfied

Plymouth, Michigan, started a

though. "The defense is different,"
he emphasizes, "but with more
practice next fall I should catch
on to it. I need more hustle."
Both players emphasize the
great depth which the team has
this spring. "The first unit espe-
cially looks good," says Sparkman.
"We've had an unusually large
num)ber of injuries this spring. We
should be real toughonext year if

"Dehlin looks especially good on
defense," remarked Elliott. "He's
improved a lot. Quist's back has
been bothering himn, but he's done
a good ,job this spring. Westfall is
small, but he can't be counted
out."
These thee mnr willhae teir
tomorrow in the final scrimmage,
2:00 p.m. at Michigan Stadium.
There is an adage about not count-

ance. I'm really pleased with the
fullback situation."

Lowe still maintain unblemished
conference marI~s in their sopho-
more years. Fauquier wil most
likely team up with Lowe In sec-
ond doubles. with Fiood and the
Wolverine sixth man at number
three.
Bill Rlice, Wildcat sophomore,
will probably get the Northwestern
call at number four singles, with
Art Templeton and Skip Gage
taking the fifth and sixth slots.
Both Michigan and Northwest-
ern will be favorites to take the
Big Ten crown this spring, but the
Wildcats are going to have at
least one advantage In that the

The Wolverines edged North-

straight titles, pulling the net
trick between 1947 and 1950.

In the team competition, the

non-athletic accomplishments at
the Fielding H. Yost Honor Ban-
quet-.

been presented for 23 years to

character, good fellowship, scho-
lastic ability, intellectual capacity

Rea, chairman of the awards com-
mittee, called the Yost Honors "a
way in which athletes are recog-
nized for their academic abilities."'

terbaan and Mrs. Fielding Yost.
In addition to Rea, the awards
committee consisted of Paul A.
Leidy, H. 0. "Fritz" Crisler, Ed-
ward G. Groesbeck, and Herbert
