team won its ninth match of the
season yesterday as the Wolver-
ines shutout Wisconsin, 9-0.
The meet was held at East Lans-
ing, site of the Big Ten Meet,
which begins today.
Yesterday's match was played
under professional rules, under
which an individual match is de-
cided when one of the partici-
pants wins 10 games.
Familiar Spot
Ray Senkowski, who had been
out of action since May 7 with

bronchitis, was in his familiar
number one singles position yes-
terday and polished off the Badg-
ers' Mary Cohen, 10-4. Senkow-
ski, the 1959 national interscho-
lastic champ and Michigan's top
player as a sophomore, , had no
trouble in disposing of his op-
ponent and appearsto have com-
pletely recovered from his illness
and ready for the Conference
Meet.
Jim Tenney resumed his win-
ning ways with a 10-5 victory over
Nick Zawacki. The Toledo sopho-
more handed Zawacki his tenth

loss of the season. Tenney had I melhack nor Heivilin appeared in

played in the number one singles
spot while Senkowski was out and
lost his last outing, to MSU's Brian
Eisner.
Wayne Peacock, whose whiplash+
serve gained him the number six
Big Ten singles title in 1959, had
some trouble, but finally rallied
for a 10-7 win over Lon Ruedisili.
Veterans Bruce MacDonald, de-
fending number six Big Ten sin-
gles champ, and Bill Vogt had lit-
tle trouble in dusting off their op-
ponents. MacDonald whitewashed
Dick Pease, 10-0, while Vogt sub-
dued Leo Rideout, 10-1.
Scott Maentz wound up the sin-
gles competition with a 10-6 vic-
tory over Marty Rubinowitz.
Senkowski and- Peacock com-
bined to whip Wisconsin's 1-2
punch, Cohen and Zawacki, in
number one doubles play, 10-2.
Maentz, who had teamed with
Peacock in number one doubles
competition while Senkowski was
on the sidelines, moved to number
two yesterday and proved no less
successful as he combined with
Tenney for a 10-8 squeaker over
Ruedisili and Rideout.
Shutout Preserved
MacDonald and Vogt preserved
the shutout with a 10-2 win over
sophomores Marty Semmelhack
and Fred Heivilin. Neither Sem-

singles competition.
The Wolverines carry a 9-3 rec-
ord with them into the Big Ten

sixth in seven years.

By JIM BERGER
A confident Michigan Golf team
left for Bloomington yesterday
and one reason for their confi-
dence is the improved play of
Dick Youngberg.
Ever since a disastrous two days
at East Lansing about one year
ago, when he shot a 72-hole to-
tal of 333, Youngberg has sacri-
ficed much time, trying to im-
prove and perfect his game.
"Dick has come_ a long way
since that terrible Conference
Meet last year," said Michigan
Golf Coach Bert Katzenmeyer.
Indeed, Youngberg has come a
long way since he started playing
golf some 11tyears ago. He was
borri in Evanston, Ill., and moved
to Northbrook when he was 12.
At the age of ten, Youngberg
first had a club in his hands, but
he didn't get out on a course un-
til he was 12.
"I used to practice in the back
yard, and go down to the football

field and try to hit the golf balli
through the uprights," recallst
Youngberg.
In Youngberg's junior and sen-l
ior 'high school years, he de-
emphasized golf and spent most1
of his time playing baseball forI
a team that nearly went to the7
national championships.,
Used Baseball Grip
This baseball experience is the
reason for Youngberg's unortho-
dox swing. "When I started play-1
ing serious golf, I swung the clubI
like a baseball bat, and I used a,
baseball grip," said Youngberg. I
Soon, as he took to the game
more seriously, Youngberg im-
proved his swing and adapted to
the standard overlap grip.
Because of financial reasons, he
did not enter the various tourna-
ments. But he did compete in
the Illinois Jaycee tournaments in
1957 and 1958.
Top in State
In the 1957 tournament, he was
number one in the state, and went
to Fargo, North Dakota for the
Nationals where he finished 15th.
In '58, he was second in state,
and at the Nationals in Columbus.
he wound up7 19th.
In addition to this creditable
record, Youngberg has shot six
holes-in-one.
As a sophomore at Michigan,
Youngberg played regularly and
in the Big Ten Tournament he
ended up in a tie for tenth.
Last year's Big Ten Tourna-
ment is history. According to Kat-
zenmeyer, it was probably the most
important factor in his develop-
ment.
Tremendous Sacrifice
"Ever since then, Dick has
worked hard and has made a tre-
mendous sacrifice to improve him-
self," said Katzenmeyer.
"This spring especially, he has
gone all out," continued the Mich-
igan mentor,- "his grades have
dropped, but his game has come
along."
Youngberg, a senior in educa-
tion, has a 3.4 overall average.

Last semester was his most suc-
cessful as he compiled an even 4.0.
His golf game this season has
been almost as good as his grade
point. In the quadrangular meet
at OSU, he scored a 75, and
missed tying his opponent, Jack
Nicklaus, by a single stroke. Last
weekend, Youngberg was medal-
ist with a 75-72-147.
Distance for Accuracy
"I've cut down some of my dis-
tance from the tee for accuracy,
and my irons have improved ac-
cordingly," commented Young-
berg.
"Dick is strong off the tee, his
irons are good, and he is a strong

Netmen To Depend onD epth
'THIS WEEKEND at East Lansing, Michigan goes after its sixth
Big Ten tennis title in seven years. If Bill Murphy's netters are
successful along with the track, golf and baseball teams, Michigan
will bring home four spring titles. Incidently. this feat has only
been accomplished once before in conference history. Michigan did
it in the war year of 1944.
Of the four sports, tennis may be the most closely contested.
Michigan rates as favorite, with Indiana, Northwestern and Michigan
State strong contenders. The sophomore laden Wildcats had a
sporadic season but could explode at East Lansing. If they do, they
could bury Michigan.
Northwestern handed Michigan its only loss after the spring
trip, a narrow 5-4 decision as the Wolverines played without Wayne
Peacock and Bill Vogt. But since then Northwestern has lost to both
Michigan State and Indiana by 7-2 scores. Michigan beat both of
these teams by the same score.
Barring a rash of upsets, neither Michigan State nor Indiana
have enough to win the title. But both teams have several out-
standing individuals who could go far in their divisions and alter
the final team standings considerably. Don't be surprised, however,
to see a Michigan vs. Northwestern final in nearly every division.
POSITION BY POSITION then, here is how we'see this week's
Big Ten tennis championships:
FIRST SINGLES-Normally in this year's field, Michigan's Ray
Senkowski would have no trouble. But Senkowski has just recovered
from0bronchitis and must weather three long days of pressure tennis
with almost no letup.
Ready if Senkowski should falter are last year's runnerup, Brian
Eisner of Michigan State, sophomore Skip Gage of Northwestern, or
highly-regarded Don Thorne of Indiana. But Senkowski is big and
strong. Although he may be extended more than normally, we still
go along with Senkowski.
SECOND SINGLES-Michigan's entry is poker-faced junior Jim
Tenney, who was runnerup in number four singles last year. Iis
main opposition will come from Gary Baxter of Indiana and Ken
Paulson of Northwestern. Tenney has improved from last year and
shows more power in his game. But Paulson beat him earlier this
year 6-4, 6-0 and on the strength of that meeting we have to go
along with Paulson. However Tenney is a cautious performer who
will not rattle under any pressure. He should not finish worse than
second.
THIRD SINGLES-This looks like a three-way race between
Wayne Peacock of Michigan, Jim Kohl of Northwestern and Stuart
Cohen of Indiana. Peacock relies on tournament experience and a'
devastating serve. Both Kohl and Cohen have beaten M's Bruce
MacDonald this year and Kohl has a reputation of being a late
starter. This is a tossup and figures to be one of the four pivotal
divisions which will probably decide the team title. The other two
are fourth singles and number one and two doubles.
FOURTH SINGLES-Forget the other eight entrants-they'll fall
like tenpins before 1960 number six titlest, Bruce MacDonald of
Michigan, and Charlie Lockhart of Northwestern, defending champ
at number four. From a spectator's point of view a final between
these two could be the best match of the tournament. Both are no-
holds-barred players who like to rush the net and play for the
spectacular big point. Both are also fiery competitors who don't
quit.
acDONALD IS THE DENNIS FITZGERALD of Michigan tennis
and plays every point with a fierce pride for his team and his
school. We can't see him losing when the chips are down and they
may be when he steps out on the court Saturday.
FIFTH SINGLES-The field thins out here as Michigan's depth
begins to assert itself. In the finals it should be the Wolverines' Bill
Vogt, runnerup in the division last year, against any one of four
Northwestern players, depending on how Wildcat coach Claire Reissen
sets his lineup. They are sophs Jim Kuhlman, Kent Fieler, Jim Erick-
son, or Junior Bill Kreml. Vogt should have no trouble disposing of
any of them with his precision game and Big Ten tournament ex-
perience.
SIXTH SINGLES-The situation is the same as fifth singles
and the cast the same for Northwestern. Either Bill Lau or Mel
Saperstein from Michigan State could also cause trouble. But three-
sport star Scott Maentz should bring home the title for Michigan.
Maentz is a hard stroking lefty who is just rounding into peak form
after a late training start. He has too much for any sixth man in
ie conference.
DOUBLES-UNLESS NORTHWESTERN or anyone else stacks their
lineup, MacDonald and Vogt should win at third doubles. Their
styles complement each other. Vogt works on precision, MacDonald
on speed and power.
Northwestern's combinations are not known now and it is Im-
possible to make a prediction. Maentz and Senkowski will be going
for the Wolverines at first doubles with Peacock and Tenney at
second doubles. Both appear to be question marks along with third
and fourth singles. Indiana could also threaten.
IN A NUTSHELL-Michigan should win but it's far from being
in the bag. Northwestern's number five and six men may be stronger
than anticipated here and Senkowski may not have regained his
full strength. But we have a sneaking suspicion that the real keys
are Tenney and Peacock who play in two of the four tossups. In the
final analysis, Michigan may sink or swim with them.

meyer.
"Another thing about Dick is
the way he thinks," continued
Katzenmeyer, "he is a smart play-
er and a real competitor."
As far as Michigan's chances
in the Big Ten Meet are con-
cerned, Youngberg is confident,
and by looking at his season's
record,, he has a good right to be.
