Special to The Daily
KAAMAZOO-Western Michi-
gan's John Bork pulled a George
Kerr yesterday to lead his Bronco
teammates to a 612/3-60% victory
over Michigan and end the Wol-
verines' hopes for an undefeated
dual meet season.
The Wolverines finished with an
0-1 record.
All Bork did was win the 440-yd.
dash, the 880-yd. run, and anchor
the winning four-mile relay team
to duplicate Kerr's heroics in last
year's Big Ten outdoor champion-
ship. Kerr's performance won the
meet for Illinois over Michigan
and this time Bork did the same.
Needs Victory
With his team needing a victory
In the final event, the mile relay,
Bork was handed the baton on the
last leg with a five-yard deficit.
Michigan's Bryon Gibson quickly
widened the lead, but Bork was
not to be denied.
Starting his kick on the back
stretch Bork ran his leg in .46:8 to
win the race ana meet going away.
Overshadowed by Bork's feat
was a brilliant performance by
Michigan's Dave Martin in the
mile run. This was the event which
everybody was looking toward and
nobody was disappointed.
In a blistering mile on a blister-
ing day, Martin turned the four
laps in a 4:06.9-2.9 seconds faster
than he's ever run the race before.
Western's Dick Pond (4:07.6) and
Jerry Ashmore (4:09.3) pushed
Martin as all three were under the
Western field and varsity record.
Broke Record
Martin's -feat also broke the
Michigan varsity mark of 4:09 set
by Don McEwen in 1951.
The meet itself wasn't too close
until the final two races, but then
the drama became intensified.
Michigan had held from a six- to
ten-point lead through the first
twelve events and had a seven and
two-thirds point lead going into
the final two events.
That meant that Western had to
slam the two-mile run and win
the mile realy. Michigan, on the
other hand, needed only a third in
the two-mile to win the meet.
Lined Up
As the three Western and two
Michigan runners lined up for
two-mile run, the partisan crowd
began to buzz. Before long it de-
veloped into a four-man race be-
tween Western's Jerry Ashmore,
Don Hancock and Ron Hopkins,
and Michigan's Jim Wyman.
The lead changed hands several
times until the fifth lap when
Wyman moved outside and at-
tempted to move up a slot. Here
the Bronco's pulled their best
strategy of the meet.
Ashmore in front slackened his
pace somewhat and Hopkins
moved up close behind him leaving
Wyman trapped on the outside.
There they stayed for the next
two laps, with Wyman running in
the outside lane. In the sixth lap,
Wyman finally moved out to the
lead and stayed there until the be-
ginning of the eighth lap.
Big Lead
Here Ashmore stepped out to a
big lead and left the other three
behind. Wyman held second until
the final turn, when Hancock and
Hopkins put on a rush to nose out
Wyman and set the stage for
Bork's final act.
Bork's time of 1:50.5 in the 880
set a field and varsity record to
add to his laurels for the day.
Michigans won eight of the
events, but couldn't get the neces-
sary seconds and thirds. Tom Rob-
inson was a double winner with
victories in the 100 and 200. Ver-
satile Dick Cephas also put in a
good day with seconds in the 100
and high jump to go along with a
victory in the 220-yd. low hurdles.
But the beautiful summer day
was reserved for Bork and the
sunburned crowd went home
happy.

Hess could scramble back to the
fence and get his glove in the air,
it had cleared the picket fence in
left field by some five feet.
Clouts Homer
In the fifth inning the big
sophomore had brought the Wol-
veriies from a three run deficit
when he hit a curve ball for a'
towering home run to left, with
Joyce and Jim Newman on base.
Freehan's three hits bring his
Big Ten average to .542, and up
his season batting mark to .474.
The last place Badgers must
have forgot to look at the stand-
ings Friday morning, because
they jumped on Joyce for nine
hits and had the undefeated right-
hander reeling from start to fin-
ish.
After Michigan picked up one
in the first on Freehan's run pro-
ducing double, Wisconsin stormed
back in the second for three runs
on three hits.

the first hit off Joyce when he

Mark Dilley followed with the first
of his three hits, a triple to cen-
ter scoring Richter.
Wolverine center fielder Ed
Hood tried to make a shoestring
catch of Dilley's liner but the ball
got by him and by the time New-
man retrieved it Dilley had his
three-bagger.
Joyce walked Jan Weisberger to
put men on first and third, and
Mel Strand punched a ground sin-
gle between first and second scor-
ing Dilley and moving Weisberger
to third. Krohn's sacrifice fly
brought in the third run.
Set Stage
In the top of the fifth the Badg-
ers set the stage for Freehan's
game tying homer in the bottom
of the frame, when they tallied a
run to make it 4-1.
Hess doubled to the fence in
right center, and moved to third
on shortstop Dick Van Eerden's
roll out. Joyce hit Richter and
when the big first baseman tried
to steal second Freehan threw the
ball into center field and Hess
scored.
In the sixth Joyce was still

throwing hard, but Wisconsin
picked up another run on Dilley's
single, a sacrifice and a single by
Krohn.
The Wolverines tied it again in
the bottom of the frame. Ed Hood
led off with a single and outraced
Hess' throw .to third,after Dick
Honig's bounder went through the
hole on the left side for another
single.
Hood scored on Joyce's sacrifice
fly.
Wisconsin never called it quits,
however. In the top of the tenth
Richter led off with a single, and
moved to second on Klein-
schmidt's sacrifice.
Lund instructed Joyce to inten-
tionally walk Dilley to set up the
double play, but it wasn't need-
ed as the big sophomore got Weis-
berger and Strand to sky out.
Two Homers
Freehan's two home runs give
him a team leading eight for the
season, and his five RBI's up his
season production to 33.
First baseman Barry Marshall
almost got his fourth home run of
the campaign in the first inning
when he sent Badger center field-
er Merritt Norvell crashing into
the center field barrier to make
a spectacular grab of his 380-foot
drive.
Today, Fisher will be shooting
for his fifth victory of the sea-
,son when he faces Northwestern.
He has lost once, 3-2 to Indiana
last week.
Marcereau, the third hurler in
Lund's regular rotation, is 1-0 on
the year.

BREAKS BARRIER-Michigan's Dave Martin breaks the tape
after turning in one of the fastest miles run in the country this
year. His time of 4:06.9 is 2.9 seconds faster than he had ever run
the event before and also broke a long-standing varsity record.
Defeat-Disapointing
o Wolverine Trackmen
By JIM BERGER
Michigan golf fans will have
their last chance to see their team
in action today as Michigan State
and Ohio State invade Ann Arbor
for a 36-hole triangular meet.
The golfers will tee off at 8 a.m.
for the first round, while the last
18 holes will be played in the
afternoon starting at 1 p.m. The
scores will be counted by total
strokes, and summer rules will be
in effect at the University Golf
Course where the meet will be held.
Both Opponents Strong
Both Michigan State and Ohio
State have shown themselves to be
strong golf teams thus far this
year. The Buckeyes were edged by
Michigan at the quadrangular
meet at Columbus, 460 to 461;
while the Spartans have a 9-1
record with their only loss coming
to Purdue last weekend at Lafay-
ette.
In that same meet, the men
from East Lansing defeated Ohio
State 920 to 946. Two weeks pre-
vious at Wilmette Golf Course, the
Spartans tied Northwestern 904
to 904 while Michigan defeated
Northwestern 897 to 901 last week-
end.
Leading the Spartans, who fin-
ished second in the conference last
year, are C. A. Smith, third in the
conference last year, Buddy Badg-
er, with a 74.8 average, Gene Hunt
with a 75.4, and Tad Schmidt, with
a 75.5 average.
Nicklaus Absent
Fortunately for the Wolverines
and MSU, Ohio State superstar
Jack Nicklaus will not compete in
today's meet as he is playing in
the Colonial Tournament in Fort
Worth, Texas. However, the Buck-
eyes still have Mike Podolski,'
fourth in the conference last year,
Dave Daniels, Joe Coleburn, Bill
Moler, and Russ Jimeson.
If Michigan State Coach John
Brotzman plays C. A. Smith, who
is in a spring slump as number-
one man, against OSU's Podolski
and Michigan's Joe Brisson, one
of the finest matches of the year
could develop. Smith, Podolski,
and Brisson finished second, third
and fourth in the conference last
year respectively.
Michigan golf coach Bert Katz-
enmeyer is pessimistic about his
team's chances in this meet. In the
freshman - varsity meet held on
Thursday, the regular six had a
total of 480 strokes for 18 holes,
and that was under ideal playing
conditions. This upset the Michi-
gan mentor.
Whale of a Show
"Both Ohio State and Michigan
State are strong golf teams, and it
will take some good playing to beat
them," Katzenmeyer said. "It fig-
ures to be a great meet," he con-
tinued, "and anyone who comes
out to see it will see a whale of a
show.
The tentative Michigan starting
lineup is as follows: Number-one
man, Joe Brisson; number-two,
Dick Youngberg; number - three,
Bill Newcomb; number-four,
Chuck Newton; number-five, Mike
Goode, and number - six, Tom
Ahern.

Special To The Daily
Probably the biggest disappoint-
ment in Michigan's track loss to
Western Michigan yesterday was
the failure of Ergas Leps, Big Ten
mile and half-mile champ, to win
either of his specialties.
"How do you explain something
like that?" Coach Don Canham
was asking about his star's fourth
place -in the mile and second in
the half-mile.
Assistant Coach Elmer Swanson
explained that the Torontoan had
entered the meet despite a cold,
and in addition both of the races
were record-setters.
Leps was never in contention for
the mile, and then let Western's
John Bork pull too far ahead of
him in the half to catch him with
his kick, so he eased up in both
races instead of turning on 'his
customary finish.
* s s
There was still humor for the
Wolverines despite the loss.
Canham quipped to Western
Coach George Dales, "Let me be
the last to congratulate you.
Ben McRae cracked after being
told he had knocked down four
hurdles in winning the 120-yd.
highs, "Is that all? I thought I
got them all. This was my first'
time outdoors, though."
It was a meet of if's for the
Wolverines, and even though Can-
ham viewed the meet more as a
tuneup for next week's Big Ten
Standings
meet than anything else, he wasn't
alibing.
"There are always those if's in
a close meet," he admitted.
Comments from the Michigan
contingent after the meet went
something like this:
Dick Cephas to Tom Robinson
after the mile relay: "If you'd
have run, we'd have won."
Robinson to Cephas: "Yeah. Or
if McRae had run the lows." (Can-
ham pulled him to avoid a possible
back injury.)
Cephas to Robinson: "Or if
(John) Gregg hadn't jumped out
in the 100." (He was disqualified
for two false starts.)
Spectator to Canham: "Or if
Bird had been able to broad jump."
Cephas to Canham after being
told his split in the relay was
:49.0: "I'd have done better if
I'd been fresh."
