Qbinson Likes Travel Best About Track
., _:_
By JOHN McREYNOLDS
What keeps a champion athlete
like 'rom Robinson, captain of
Michigan's track team and the
only man to win all four Big Ten
sprint titles, going?
"Travel is what I really like
about this sport," Robinson says.
"I love to travel. I may never be
a millionaire, but I'll be happy."
So far the senior star has tour-
ed Europe, Africa and Australia,
as well as most of the northern
hemisphere. This summer he plans
to go either to Europe again or
through South America.
Calypso Helps
"Another thing that helps me,"
the Bahaman import states, "is
calypso, music" from home. It
helps me relax." le hummed a
tune to himself. "It's different
here from back home, you khow.
Down there we didn't really work
too hard, and we played around.
"I used to play rugby and swim,

but I played only one game of
touch football up here. There's a
great deal of emphasis."
Besides having more emphasis
on winning, the schedule is also
quite a bit different. In the Ba-
hamas there were three or four
meets a year, each separated by

lar tennis meets Friday and

and Indiana.
two or three months, since the
weather never really got cold.
Contrast that with six months of
meets, as well as extra months
spent in training.
Weather Makes Difference
"The weather made a big dif-
ference," Robinson stated, looking
at the clouded sky. "It's about 50
right now, isn't it? We never have
it that cold at home. There's a
sea breeze, so that it's cool in the
shade and warm in the sun, with-
out the humidity here. I can't run
well in weather like this.
"Right now I'd like to run some
fifties, but they wouldn't do me
very much good, because it's too
cold. The field house is about as
good," he added.
After he graduates in June,
Robinson expects to continue run-
ning and hopes to enter the Edin-
burgh University medical school.
"The B r i t i s h Commonwealth
Championships are coming up
next year, and I'm defending
champion in the 220-yd. dash. Be-
sides, it gives me an opportunity
to travel more."
The powerful sprinter also has
his eye on the 100-yd. title, which
he barely missed three years ago,
coming in a close second.
No Special Preparation
Robinson, who has been running
competitively, for seven years, has
no special preparation for a meet.
"A meet day, even a really big
meet like the Big Ten Champion-
ships, is just about like any other
day, except that I eat less. Calyp-
so helps me along, too."
Wouldn't a rugby player gen-
erally run long distances, since
ruggers are known for their
strength and stamina? "I don't
know about everyone else, but
what I run is long enough for
me," he relates.
In workouts he sometimes runs
quarter miles, but in' meets his
longest distance is the 300-yd.
dash, during the indoor season.
First Contact
Robinson's first contact with the
high tension meets in the United
States was in the Pan-American
games of 1955. "Think of me, just
a sixteen-year-old kid, in that big
meet. But I enjoyed it, and I liked
the traveling. Maybe my urge to
travel started there."
He smiled and returned to his
workout.

Jim Gentile set a major league
record by hitting two consecutive
bases-loaded home runs in Balti-
more's 13-5 victory over the Min-
nesota . Twins yesterday. And
southpaw Herb Score, making his
first start of the season, pitched
a two-hitter as the Chicago White
Sox fled the American League
cellar with a 4-2 decision over
Cleveland after losing seven in a
row.
Detroit padded its AL lead to
three games although splitting a
twt - night doubleheader with
Washington. the Tigers won the'
opener. 7-2, then lost 5-4. That
ended the Tigers' winning streak
at six, but added a half-game to
their lead over the second-place
New York Yankees, who lost 5-4
at Kansas City.
Bucs Win
In the National League, Pitts-
burgh whipped San Francisco 9-6,
trimming the Giants' lead to one

A field of 70 contestants, head-
ed by Jo Anne Gunderson of Ari-
zona State University, will com-
pete in the 17th Women's Collegi-
ate Golf Tournament to be held
here during the week of June 19-
23.
Miss Gunderson is the defend-
ing champion from last year's
tournament and is currently Wom-
an's Amateur Queen. She is also
a member of the Curtis Cup team
which defeated the British wom-
en's squad last year.
Since she is a long hitter, the
University golf course seems made
to order for the 5' 7", 140-lb. de-
fending champion, who won med-
alist honors last year with a 71
on the Stanford, Golf Course.
Chief Threat
The chief threat to a second ti-
tle for Miss Gunderson is attrac-
tive Judy Eller, playing out of
the University of Miami. The 20-
year-old native of Old Hickory,

Yesterday's baseball game
with Wayne State was rained
out and will be rescheduled for
a later date. Bob Marcereau
was slated'to pitch against the
Tartars in the second meeting
between the clubs.
Marcereau picked up the win
in the first game as the Wol-
verines pounded out a 14-8 de-
cision.
Tenn., won the crown in 1959
and last yearwas defeated on the
21st hole by Miss Gunderson.
Among local talent are four
members of Michigan's Woman's
golf team, which plays in its first
meet this Saturday against -Ohio
State and Purdue at Ann Arbor.
These include Jean Leach, 'Sue
Hiler, Joan Campbell, and Jo
Fleming.
There will be 18 holes of medal
play on June 19, and the top 16
will qualify for match play through
the 23rd. This is the first time in
many years that the midwest will
host this tournament, a tourney
comparable to the NCAA men's
golf classic.
Deadline for entries is May 20,
and those women interested in
competing should contact Miss
Rotvig at Barbour Gymnasium or
at University Course on Thurs-
days after 3:30 p.m.
Rifle Team
Places Sixth
The University Rifle Club man-
aged to come in sixth in a meet
held at Camp Perry, Ohio, last
weekend.
The major reason for the club's
disappointing outcome was due to
"equipment trouble" which they
encountered on Sunday. There was
no action on Saturday since it
rained all day.
The trouble was caused by a
bad rifle which was not changed
in the right procedure., As a re-
sult, the team was penalized 50
points.
The four men representing the
Michigan Rifle Club at the week-
end competition were Fred Bleich-
er, Bill Barbau, Larry Vanice,
and Bill Beyermann. They each
had a try at a possible 250 point
score.
Indiana State Teachers came in
first with a score of 898 points
out of a possible 1,000. Kentucky
was second with a score of 853,
followed by Michigan State, 848;
Ohio, 819; DePaul, 802; Michi-
gan, 794; and Dayton, 772.
