The Wildcats pushed their to- tal to 73 in the finals on the way to their first conference title since 1950, outdistancing second place Michigan with 42. A late Indiana splurge edged Michigan State for the third spot, 34-30%/. Hal Lowe and Harry Fauquier picked up the only Michigan first place medal with a 9-7, 6-4 win over Northwestern's Jim Erickson and Ken Paulson on the second doubles court. The Wolverines won four runner-up awards while drop- ping their first conference title in five years. Three of the four Mich- igan defeats in the finals went three sets as the Wolverines gave Northwestern a tough go for the final honors. Important Quarter-Inch A lack of a mere quarter-inch halted Ray Senkowski's bid to un- seat defending number one singles champion Marty Riessen. Senkow- ski stopped Riessen in the first set, 6-2, but the Wildcat junior rallied to take the next two 6-4, 6-1. The score was tied at 3-3 in the second set with Riessen serving when Senkowski gained a 30-40 lead. By breaking Riessen's serv- ice, the Wolverine senior would have had a 4-3 lead with his own serve coming up the next game. The score his ad, Senkowski had a clear shot to the right side of the court but the ball barely caught the top of the net and fell back. Riessen then broke Senkow- ski's serve with the score 5-4 to take the second set. Michigan captain Harry Fau- quier came back to take a 7-5 sec- ond set from Northwestern's Clark Graebner after dropping the first 6-2. But Graebner's vicious serve and forehand came back to trip up Fauquier in the third, 6-1. Flood Loses Wildcat Bill Rice beat Michi- gan's Brian. Flood for the fourth singles title, 6-7, 7-5. Ron Linclau handed NU's Skip Gage a 6-1 first set and jumped ahead in the second 3-1. Linclau then began feeling the effects of playing with the majority of his back muscles pulled and fell in the second and third sets, 6-3, 6-3. Fauquier and Lowe won both of their sets on service breaks, one from each of the Wildcat pair. Ken Paulson of Northwestern defeated Michigan State's Jack Damson for the third singles title, 6-8, 6-3, 6-2. Michigan's third man, John Fraser, remained in the Northwestern health center with a high fever. Charles Fichter of Indiana downed MSU's Dwight Shelton 8- 10, 6-4, 6-3 on the fifth court. Riessen and Graebner won the first doubles, getting by Iowa's Steve Wilkinson and Dave Strauss, 6-2, 6-3, and Gary Baxter and Jim Binkley of Indiana gained a third doubles medal by defeating Gabe and Rice, 6-4, 6-3./ Michigan's first and second singles 'players put up stronger opposition in this meet than when the Wildcats beat the Wol- verines in their dual meet in Ann Arbor last week. Senkowski, who had lost 6-4, 6-2 to Riessen then, had not come nearly as close to an upset as he had yesterday. The same held true for Fauquier, who had failed to win a match from Graebner at Ann Arbor. Flood's loss in fourth, singles was his first of the Big Ten sea- son. He had been victorious in all of Michigan's conference dual meets, including the one with Northwestern. However, Tig Tem- pleton instead of Rice competed against him in that contest. Linclau fared about as well against Gage as he had against Carver Blanchard in that same meet. In Michigan's victorious second doubles, it amounted to a rematch between Fauquier-Lowe and Paul- son-Erickson, and the Wolverines repeated by winning in two sets. The previous score had been 6-4, 7-5, and yesterday's triumph was equally close. End of an Era SINGLES FINALS 1. Riessen (NU) def. SENKOWSKI (M) 2-6, 6-4, 6-1.a 2. Graebner (NU) def.

COURAGEOUS GRIDDER: Acute Leukemia Fells Davis CLEVELAND oP)-Ernie Davis, America's greatest collegiate foot- ball player of 1961 and a symbol of tremendous courage to all who knew him, died peacefully yester- day in Lakeside Hospital after a 13-month battle against acute leukemia. The 23-year-old former All- America halfback at Syracuse was the only Negro ever to win the Heisman Trophy, the highest honor accorded a college grid star. He was a member of the Cleveland Browns in the Na- tional Football League, but never played a game professionally. He was stricken with the deadly blood 'disease at the College All- Star camp in Evanston, Ill., last July. However, doctors now have concluded the 6' 2" 212-pounder1 actually was afflicted in April, 1962. News Withheld For more than three months the news that Davis had leukemia was withheld from him and the general public. Then in October, doctors and Browns' officials told Davis his illness was in a remis- sive state, meaning the disease was arrested temporarily. Thati lasted for more than six months- or until 10 weeks ago.l Davis entered the hospital Thursday afternoon. First he, . stepped by the Browns' office to talk to Arthur B. Modell, club president. "He was here for one hour," Modell said. "He told me he had to go to the hospital, but that it was nothing serious and that he'd be out of there in a couple of days. His neck was swollen con- siderably and we all knew what it meant. I think Ernie did, too. He was coming by to say good- bye to me and the others. - 'Nothing to Worry About' "I asked him how he was feel- ing," Modell recalled. "All he would say was, I've felt better, but it's nothing to worry about. My throat hurts a little.' He was apologetic about having to go into the hospital." Jim Brown, Cleveland's great fullback and the man who pre- ceded Davis at Syracuse, was deeply touched by Ernie's death. "This is a great personal loss," Brown said. "He was a tremend- ous individual. He real'zed this was going to happen eventually, but he was courageous in the face of everything. He never showed his feelings to any of the guys. "I never caught him with his head down. He just carried on normally as if nothing was wrong. Football was his life and he wanted so badly to play for the Browns." Modell, who knew Davis for 18 months and went far beyond the normal relationship of owner- player in his association with Ernie, said he planned to start an Ernie Davis foundation for leukemia research. "The Browns will make a sub- stantial contribution to get the fund started," Modell said. "His mother has asked that instead of flowers, contributions should go to University Hospital in Cleveland for the hospital's leukemia re- search projects." In his hometown of Elmira, N.Y., Davis' mother, Mrs. Arthur Radford said the death was a "terrible shock." She said she was numbed by the loss of her only son. His father is dead. The body was being shipped by airplane to Elmira for funeral services either Monday or Tues- day. The Browns planned to charter an airplane for club of- ficials and players who desire to attend the funeral. 'Real Gentleman' Dr. Austin S. Weisberger, Davis' personal physician and a blood specialist, said: "Ernie was a most impressive person. He was a real gentleman in all senses of the word. He had great courage and dignity. You couldn't help but admire him." The doctor said Davis' form of the disease-acute monocytic leu- kemia-is the worst kind of all. "There are many kinds of leu- kemia and persons can live a nor- mal life with it," he said. "I knew one person who lived with it for 38 years." Dr. Weisberger said Davis died shortly before 2 a.m., 36 hours after entering the hospital."There was a rapid acceleration of leu- kemic cells in the past few days, but before that Ernie was able to carry on his normal functions without any pain whatsoever." Davis was given heavy doses of medication in an attempt to shrink the malignant tissues and to arrest the blood deterioration. Then he was sedated with mor- phine. "He just coughed once, spit up some blood and expired," one doctor said.

Candy Spots, owned by Rex C. Ellsworth and trained by Mesh Tenney and ridden by Willie Shoe- maker, justified the confidence in the Westerner who had main- tained all along that the Califor- nia-bred colt was the best 3-year- old in the land. 3-2 Favorite A crowd of 35,263 also was con- vinced of his superiority. They made the bigchestnut son of Ni- gromante-Candy Dish by Kahled the 3-2 favorite. Cain Hoy Stable's Never Bend was the second choice at 9-5 while John W. Galbreath's Chateaugay was sent off as third choice at 5-2. It was the first time Ellsworth and Tenney had started a horse in the Preakness and it was the first victory in the race for Jock- ey Shoemaker in four tries. Again there will be no Triple Crown winner this year, but that'll take nothing away from the third in the series. Most of these lead- ing 3-year-olds are going on to New York for the wind-up, the $125,000-added Belmont Stakes to be raced at Aqueduct on June 8. No horse has managed a Triple Crown sweep since Citation in 1948. Big Third This was not only the third rich- est Preakness but it was the third largest crowd and the winner's time was the third fastest. Candy Spots was clocked in 1 minute, 56.2 seconds on a track which was fast by post time al- though it was covered with water Saturday morning. The time equalled Greek Money's winning time of 1962 and Bold Ruler's clocking in 1957. Nashua set the record of 1:54.6 in 1955 and Ca- pot did it in 1:56 in 1949. The winner, who also was the favorite in the Kentucky Derby, returned $5., $3.20 and $2.20. Cha- teaugay, ridden by Braulio Baeza, paid $4.40 and $2.40 and Never Bend, with Manuel Ycaza in the saddle, was $2.20 to show. Candy Spots picked up a purse of $127,500 to run his career earn- ings to $476,812. Right to Front Ycaza, who was involved in the famous finish line bumping with jockey Johnny Rotz last year, sent Never Bend to the front im- mediately after the start. Bill Robinson's Rural Retreat went right with him and Shoe- maker came along in third place with Candy Spots. They went to the first turn in the same order with Chateaugay rated well back in sixth place. ALERTNESS CAPSULES Combat fatigue almost im- mediately.

M - The Big Eight Conference formally ap- proved yesterday a letter of in- tent agreement for all sports with five other major conferences and four Eastern schools with a com- mon signing date of May 20. The agreement was adopted in principle by all conferences and schools involved at the NCAA convention in Los Angeles in Jan- uary. Since then they voted on a May 20 signing date. Can't Jump After that date, any high school athlete who signs with a school involved in the agreement can- not jump to another school with- out losing a year of eligibility. A Big Eight-Southwest Confer- ence letter of intent for football only, which was approved last December and became effective Feb. 12, was the forerunner of the six-conference hookup. Other conferences involved be- sides the Big Eight and South- west are the Atlantic Coast, Southeast, Big Ten and Missouri Valley plus Penn State, Syracuse, West Virginia and Pittsburgh. Also Approved The Misouri Valley, Big Ten and Southwest also have approved the agreement. Wayne Duke, Big Eight execu- tive director-elect, said indica- tions were the Big Eight and Southwest would keep their own earlier signing date for football. They asked the Misouri Valley to agree on the earlier football date but the Valley deferred ac- tion on this earlier. All depends on why he uses it. Most men simply think Menthol-Iced Skin Bracer is the best after-shave lotion around. Because it cools rather than burns. Because it helps heal shaving nicks and scrapes. Because it helps prevent blemishes. So who can blame them if Bracer's crisp, long-lasting aroma just happens to affect women so remarkably? Of course, some men may use Mennen Skin Bracer because of this effect. How intelligent! skin bracer Does a man really take unfair advantage of women when he uses Mennen Skin Bracer? 1 '' >I Moll,,u i 71 Your Discontinue Textooks are worth real moneyl If sold to Utrich's WITH your currently good ones.
