THE MICHIGAN DAILY FRIDAY, APRIL 21, 'S _ I' Nine Meets NCAA. Champion Minnesota Today [ike Joyce To Twirl Conference Opener gainst Offensive-Minded Gopher Squad MAJOR LEAGUE ROUNDUP: Tigers Club Indians, Tie for Second By BRIAN MacCLOWRY Don Lund should find out just ow good his Michigat baseball' am is today when it meets de- nding NCAA champion Minne-+ ta on the first leg of the 1961 ig Ten pennant chase., Three-thirty is the time and erry Field the place. Sophomore right hander Mike oyce will hurl for the Wolverines nd will be opposed by Gopher ace oward Nathe. Don't be late, for as they say in ie fight game, it's 7-5 that neither f'em; will go the distance. Both ams are loaded offensively. Knapp Leading Gopher Minnesota comes to town with .310 team batting average and n. all-American first baseman amed Wayne Knapp, who last ear led the conference in home uns, total bases and slugging per- entage. His .441 average was sec- nd in that department. The disheartening thing for the Wolverines is the fact that cur- rently Knapp is eighth in battingI among Gopher regulars with a .268 mark. Can this mean that the 1961 club has seven players who can outswing the Gopher all-Ameri- can? If figures don't lie, then it's true. Outfielder Roland Carlson cur- rently tops the Gopher attack with a modest .483 mark.Fastballer Nathe, who was 4-1 in Big Ten Sports Writers?

He owns a .368 average and - embarrassingly enough for the eight regulars- leads the club in homers with two. Lund will go with the same power laden lineup that has pro- duced eight homers in the last three games. First-baseman Bill Freehan leads the parade with six round trippers but rightfielder Dick DeLamielleure has the distance mark with a 460'-plus blast against Wayne State. Minnesota Coach Dick Siebert has been crying the blues all week because three games scheduled for last weekend with Iowa State Teachers were cancelled due to poor weather. "This is by far the worst spring we've had since I've been at Min- nesota," he moans. "We haven't been able to get outdoors all week for practice." Record Breaker Siebert's despondency is not less- ened from the fact that one of his hurlers possesses probably the most phenomenal ERA in history -67.5. This chap-Rodney Wilke by name-has pitched two-thirds of an inning, allowed five hits, five walks, and ten runs. The Wolverines have no one who can match Wilke, but then maybe it's just as well. Lund has main- tained since the beginning of prac- tice that pitching holds the key to the Wolveiines season. But with all that hitting who needs pitching? By The Associated Press The weather relented but the Yankees and Tigers didn't as they moved into a second place tie in the American League yesterday, a half game behind the idle Min- nesota Twins. The Yankees, idled since last Monday because of rain, took a doubleheader from the Los An- geles Angels 7-5 and 4-2. The Ti- gers clobbered the Cleveland In- dians 11-4 after hammering Gary Bell in the early innings. And, for once, no game was postponed be- cause of rain, snow or other foul weather. The Yanks, getting some sen- sational hitting from Mickey Mantle in the opener, chalked up IM Softball Social Fraternity "B" Sigma Alpha Epsilon 10, Psi Upsilon 9 Phi Delta Theta 8, Lambda Chi Al- pha 1 Theta Xi 18, Alpha Delta Phi 10 Beta Theta Pi 26, Chi Psi 5 Phi Sigma Delta won over Tau Kappa Epsilon (forfeit) Professional Fraternity Psi Omega 7, Law Club 4 Phi Rho sigma 7, Delta Sigma Pi 3 Phi Chi 20, Phi Delta Epsilon 3 Nu sigma Nu 15, Alpha Kappa Phi 5 Phi Delta Phi 12, Gamma Alpha 2 Phi Alpha Kappa won over Phi Alpha Delta (forfeit) their fourth straight victory and matched Detroit's 4-1 record. Min- nesota (5-1) had an open date. Early Wynn, 41-year-old Chica- go pitcher, earned his 285th major league pitching victory as the White Sox whipped the Washing- ton Senators 6-1 in the only oth- er American League game. In the Senior Circuit the San Francisco Giants, with a sharply shuffled lineup, beat the Cincin- nati Reds 2-1 behind Mike McCor- mick's four-hit pitching, and Chi-. cago's Glen Hobbie shutout Pitts- burgh 3-0. Milwaukee won a night game from Philadelphia, 7-6 in 11 in- nings. Mantle, who drove in all three runs in the Yanks's last game on Monday, sent in five more in to- day's opener, hitting his second and third home runs of the sea- son. He had only one single in the second game but drew two walks that started Yank rallies and scored one run. The Angels not only lost their fourth straight game since win- ning the season opener but they lost third baseman Eddie Yost for about a week. Yost was hit on the right hand by relief pitcher Bill Stafford in the ninth inning of the opener and X-rays at a hospital showed a hairline frac- ture of the middle finger. The Yankee pitching was a bit shaky. Art Ditmar had to have relief help from Stafford after Mantle's two homers off ex-Yan- kee Eli Grba had given him a big lead in the opener. Bob Turley walked nine men in 7% innings of the nightcap and was relieved by Luis Arroyo. For the Angels Ken Hunt, for- mer Yankee utility outfielder, hit two doubles, a triple and a hom- er in the two games. The Tigers jumped on Cleve- land's Bell for four runs in the first inning on Rocky Colavito's double, two singles and two walks. Then Norm Cash belted a three- run homer in the fifth and that was enough to assure Frank Lary his second victory of the season. Wynn, who made two unsuc- cessful tries for victory 285 last year and one earlier this year, finally earned it with the aid of homers by Roy Sievers, Jim Lan- dis and.Al Smith.

Last night. marked the first practice session of the brand new University Fencing Club, which welcomes all interested beginners and experienced fencers. The adviser to the club is Mar- tin Taylor of the Romance Lan- guage Department, and those in- terested are asked to get in touch with him. "This school is the only one in the Big Ten which does not have a team," complains Taylor. "Surely a sport which can offer so much in the way of exercise entertainment and a sense of sportsmanship should besencour- aged by all those whose interest in athletics is sincere and goes beyond partisanship," he contin- ues. As of now the club boasts a membership of a dozen prospec- tive fencers, but for the success of the club others are needed to take part. 417 E.
