FRIDAY, 16 APRIL 1965 THE MICHI T ITrackmen Enter Ohio State Relays G AN DAILY 3' Nine Faces U-D In Pair on Saturday r k 4 By STEVE GALL After a week's layoff the Wol- verine cindermen are off and run- ning again. Tomorrow they journey to Co- lumbus for the twenty-second an- nual Ohio State Relays. "This will be a good indicator of our pro- gress outdoors," commented Coach Don Canham. The trackmen, who have been plagued continuously by bad weather here during practices, will be competing in only their second meet of the outdoor season. Two weeks ago the team flew down to the South Carolina Relays and walked off with five firsts and five meet records. They also tied with Maryland, the IC4A Indoor a~ Eastern champs, for the most first places, although no points were counted in the meet. Cancel Out "After our good showing down in South Carolina, we decided to cancel out of the Ohio Relays in Athens last week and just have field and time trials," Canham confessed. "The boys needed a weekend to prepare for finals and we were generally impressed with South +rolina so we used that Saturday in preparation for the Ohio State Relays tomorrow," he showings from our 440, 880, mile added. and sprint relays," Canham specu- These relays will pose a real lated.

R e c o r d setting pole - vaulter George Canamare, who received a slight concussion during prac- tice last week, will be competing at full strength. "There is nothing to worry about. George will go higher," Canham interjected. Can- amare, who leaped 15'3%" at South Carolina, is already con- sidered to be one of the favorites at the Big Ten Outdoor Cham- pionships in May. Next week the cindermen travel to Philadelphia for the annual Penn Relays, then face the Chi- cago Track Club, Penn State, and Indiana on successive weekends leading up to the Big Ten Out- door Championships May 21 and 22 at Iowa City. The NCAA Cham- pionships are at Berkeley, Calif., June 17, 18 and 19. Michigan's baseball team faces an unbeaten Detroit squad to- morrow at 1 p.m. in a double- header which could show how ready the Wolverines are for the Big Ten season. Head Coach Moby Benedict plans to use senior southpaw Clyde Barnhart in one of the games, and said yesterday that either sophomore Bill Zepp or junior Bill Wahl will get the nod in the other game. The Titans have a six-game winning streak going for them this season, after giving Ferris State a double shellacking Wednesday, 11-0 and 4-0. In a doubleheader last Saturday, Detroit bounced Kalamazoo, 7-0 and 5-2. Last season the Wolverines mas- tered the Titans twice. The first game went 13 innings and Mich- igan came out on top, 11-6, and the second contest was a close 5-4 affair. The Wolverines' second vic- tory cost the Titans a berth in the NCAA baseball championships.

At a meeting last week the Board of Control of Intercollegiate Athletics voted to modernize the antiquated dirt track which surrounds (the orig- inal) Ferry Field. The track which was built in the 20's has been the scene of many memorable performances, includ- ing Jesse Owen's remarkable world shattering feats in 1936. However, it has withered away each year and now has become almost im- possible to practice on, much less run championship meets on. According to track Coach Don Canhm, the Board will provide up to $30,000 for the uplifting. Shift! Original plans call for a shift of the track five feet towards the stands and ten feet in the direc- tion of the tennis courts. A two inch asphalt foundation will be layed and a one inch rubber sur- face will cover it. The new track is being modeled after the ones at Kentucky and Ohio State. International Lanes Other features include a nine "international lane" area for the 100-yard dash, rubberizing of all field event runways, a cyclone fence enclosing the track and new equipment such as hurdles. "Work will begin in early June and we hope to finish it by the beginning of September," Canham said yesterday. "We hope to hold some regional and national meets here in the very near future," he added. By BUD WILKINSON Michigan's tennis team opens the Big Ten season this weekend in home meets against Minnesota and Purdue, but they won't be playing on the tennis courts. Because of snow, rain, and gen-1 erally bad weather throughout the past few weeks the clay varsity courts are not ready for play and the meets will be held in the Sports Building. The netters will face Minnesota at 1 p.m. today and Purdue at the same time tomorrow. Minne- sota and Purdue will play to- morrow morning. Admission is free. The Wolverines have not been able to practice outside since their return from the southern trip, and neither Minnesota* nor Purdue have been outside much. Coach Bill Murphy said yesterday that playing in the Sports Build- ing will give the Wolverines an advantage because they have practiced there so much. After evaluating each player's performance on the spring trip and in matches played indoors during the last four weeks, Mur- phy named the lineup for the weekend meets. The number one singles spot will be held down by junior Karl Hedrick, who last year held down the second singles position behind graduated captain Harry Fau- quier. Jim Swift, who played in sev- eral different positions last year, has nailed down the number two spot for the weekend contests and captain Brian Flood will play third singles, the position at which he won the Big Ten title last year. Seniors Jon Fraser and George Russell have been taped for the fourth and fifth positions respec- tively. Jerry Stewart will be at the final singles post. Fraser, however, has been ham-' pered by a bad leg and if he is not able to play, Russell and Stewart will move up a position and Hal Lowe will take over the sixth spot. The doubles pairings will be Hedrick and Stewart in the num- ber one spot, Fraser and Russell at number two, and Swift and Flood at third doubles. In last year's contests the Wol- Course Opens' The University of Michigan Golf Course will open for play by students, faculty, alumni and guests tomorrow. Starting times will begin at 8 a.m., the first two weeks.

In the final conference standings Minnesota and Purdue held the eighth and tenthuspots respectively hwhile Michigan finished second to In- diana. The Wolverines lost only Fau- quier from last year's team and should be strong again this year. "We're looking much better than we did in the South. In fact, I think we'll be a pretty good team, fairly strong all over and right in the thick of the race," com- mented Murphy. Minnesota and Purdue should also be improved this season. Gopher coach Don Lewis has five returning lettermen and, two s t r o n g sophomores. The top Gopher threat is Jerry Noyce who will play first singles. "Noyce is a very good player and will probably give Hedrick quite a battle," Murphy noted. Purdue will field three return- ing lettermen plus three men who had some experience last year. Junior Wayne Svoboda played second. singles last year and will probably take over the top spot this year. The most promising of the Boilermakerrsophomores is Don Stone.
