Titai
By MARC FELDMAN
Bob Barnett of the University
of Detroit baseball team couldn't
be blamed if he left Ray Fisher
Stadium yesterday with a smile
on his face although he and his
Titan teammates had just gone
down twice to Michigan, 1-0 and
3-0, in the Wolverines' first home
appearance of the 1973 season.
Detroit's impotence at the
plate and inconsistency in the
field could not be traced to the
Titan hurler and part-time first
baseman. It is indeed a prodigi-
ous task to pitch a no-hitter and
win, but to pitch a no-hitter and
lose is a feat even less hurlers
have performed. "
Barnett did it yesterday against
Michigan and it took a couple of
errors by his shortstop, a sacri-
fice bunt and a ground out to
finally push across a run in the .
bottom of the sixth that turned
out to be enough for Michigan
to win, 1-0..
Not only did the Dearborn
righthander pitch this somewhat
tainted gem on the hill but he
also supplied the less than titanic
ace

Titan offense with three of its
six hits in the doubleheader,
giving him a rousing season bat-
ting average of .555 with ten hits
in 18 at bats.
The oddity of Barnett's no-hit-
tr overshadowed equally fine
mound performances by Mich-
igan's Pete Helt in the first game
and Art "Ace" Adams in the
nightcap. Both pitchers displayed
pin point control in hurling their
shutouts as neither issued a walk
all afternoon and combined for
13 strikeouts.
Helt, a senior southpaw from
Morris Plains, N.J., had the De-
troit hitters off balance all day
with a variety of breaking pitch-
es that had the Titans flailing
at the breeze. Helt fanned nine
Detroiters in going the full seven
innings including seven whiffs in
the first three innings.
The Titans threatened to vio-
late the plate just once during
the first game, in the initial in-
ning, when two throwing errors
by the left side of the Wolverine
infield gave Detroit first and
third with two outs. Barnett then
offered an omen of things to
come when he grounded into a
force play to end the inning. Helt
gave up just two singles in rais-
ing his record to 1-2.
Adams wasn't as spectacular
as Helt, but he kept out of trou-
ble by scattering four singles,
norn
issuing no walks, and receiving
flawless fielding support from his
teammates.
Victorious Coach Moby Bene-
dict was disappointed in Mich-
igan's hitting but he had praise
for both his hurlers. "When you
get pitching like that you can
afford to pick and scratch for a
run. They (Hell and Adams) got.
those curve balls over the plate."
In the nightcap, the hitting
drought reached seven straight
innings before Tom Kettinger led
off the Michigan second with a
line drive double to right center.
John Lonchar raised the fans to
ecstacy by lacing a run-scoring
single to left center to give Mich-
igan a 1-0 lead. Bill Mever, who
had his appendix removed just
over two weeks ago, followed
with another safety but Lonchar
was cut down at the plate on a
fine throw from rightfielder Pete
Sulzicki.
Kettinger, Lonchar, and Meyer
combined for another Wolverine
run two innings later. Kettinger
beat out an infield single and
moved to second on a wild pitch
before Lonchar drew a base on
balls. Meyer followed with his
itter
second of three hits on the after-
noon, driving in Kettinger.
In the sixth inning, Michigan
added an insurance tally and
Lonchar and Meyer had their
hands in- that one also. Lonchar
walked and Meyer beat out an
infield smash to sh6rt. Mike De
Con ripped a line drive base hit
to right field and Benedict, tak-
ing no chances on Sulzicki's
strong arm in the outfield, held
Lonchar on third. Freshman Dan
Damiani got the run home with
a sacrifice fly.
Detroit's record fell to 2-3 with
the twin defeats yesterday. The
Titans had taken two of three
from Carson-Newman on their
trip down South and hit .353 in
the process. However, they had
the misfortune of having five
games cancelled by rain.
Michigan has won three in a
row after seven straight losses
in Arizona at the beginning of
the season. Wolverine hurlers
have held the opposition score-
less over 24 straight innings in
the three wins while the offense
has managed just five runs.

ends of the double bill, blanking the Titans 1-0 and 3-0.
CHESS
Anatoli Karpov .
. .a bright new star
MIKE DUWECK
RU$SIAN CHESS supremacy was dealt a staggering blow when
Bobby Fischer defeated Boris Spassky, taking away a world
title the Soviets had owned since 1948. Yet this defeat was only
the latest sign of the Soviet Union's weakening grip on the chess
world.
Of greatest concern to the Soviet Chess Federation for more
than a decade has been the lack of new superstars to fill the
pool from which Soviet individual and team world champions
have come. Only in November, 1971, did light begin to appear at
the end of the tunnel.
In that month, 20-year-old Anatoli Karpov began a tre-
mendous string of international tournament successes. It was
then that he shared first place in the Alelchine Memorial
Tournament, followed by a share of first place in the Hast-
ings Tournament in December, a 7-2 record leading the So-
viet Students Team to the World Students' Championship in
July, 1972, and a 9-2 score in the finals of the Skopje Olym-
piad. And last, but not least, he shared first place in the
Church's Fried Chicken, Inc. First International Chess Tour-
nament with Tigran Petrosian and Lajos Portisch in De-
cember, 1972.
During a stop in Chicago, on their way home from the C.F.C.
I.F.I.C.T., Petrosan and Karpov helds a news conference where
Petrosian, world champion prior to Boris Spassky, said Karpov
might be able to beat Fischer within eight years. Karpov agreed
that he would be able to beat Fischer, but did not think it would
take that long. Such is the confidence of a 21-year-old future
world title contender.
Following is a game which Karpov played against George
Botterill in the Soviet Union vs. Britain match of the 1972 World
Students' Championship. It demonstrates what U.S. Grandmaster
Robert Byrne described as the "leisurely boa constrictor style"
which has become synonymous with Karpov.

We received word from Amsterdam this week that plans to
hold a chess tournament in Holland between Europe and the rest
of the world may be dropped because of "exorbitant" fees de-
manded by World Chess Champion Bobby Fischer.
Willem Ruth, chairman of the Dutch Chess Federation, re-
ported that the match was being planned for next September to
celebrate the 100th anniversary of the federation.
He said that Fischer had demanded a starting sum of $100,000
and a fee of $5,000 a day for two simultaneous sessions.
Ruth said that the Russians had also refused to participate
in the tournament, saying the September date did not suit them.
However, Dr. Max Euwe, Dutch president of FIDE, the world
chess federation, reported that the Russians were still upset over
losing the World Championship last year. But Ruth added that
efforts would still be made to hold the competition next year.
"We hope that Fischer will be more reasonable in his finan-
cial demands-," he said. "If necessary, we shall manage without
him."
The Ann Arbor and Mark's Coffeehouse chess teams continued
their winning ways March 23 as they rolled over their opposition
in the Metropolitan Chess Association.
Ann Arbor increased its lead over second-place Livonia I
in League I from 3% to a commanding 4 points, with one
league match left.
In League V, Mark's Coffeehouse crushed Pontiac Ii to push
its lead over second-place Chrysler III from 1 to 3 points, with
one league match remaining. Winning for Mark's on Boards 1, 2,
3, and 5 were Rudy Fink, Bill Dinner, Sue Franklin, and Mike
Duweck, respectively, whle Randy Cunningham drew on Board 4.
International Master Milan Vukcevic will give a 70 board sim-
ultaneous chess exhibition on Thursday, April 12, here in Ann
Arbor.
Vukcevic has an impressive array of chess accomplish-
ments to qualify him as a formidable opponent, even in a
70 board event. He won the Bronze Medal at the 1960 Chess
Olympiad. In a match with Bent Larsen, second in the West
to Bobby Fischer, Vukcevic scored a 4.4 result. He also won
the best-played-game prize at the 1960 World Student Champ-
ionship in Leningrad, tied for first in the 1969 U.S. Open,
and is currently rated 9th in the U.S.
Local Master David Presser arranged for Vukcevic's appear-

BOSTON - Carlton Fisk, theI
American League's 1972 Rookie of
the Year, drove in six runs with a
pair of homers, one the first grand
slam of his brief major league
career, and the Boston Red Sox
rolled to a .15-5 victory over theI
New York Yankees yesterday in
a history - making season opener.
Fisk, who batted only .107 inI
Florida exhibition games this
spring, stole the thunder in a wild;
show of base hits, including four
in a row by Boston's Doug Griffin
and a homer by Carl Yastrzemski.
Ron Blomberg became the first
official designated hitter in major3

Special To The Daily
Eugene, Oregon-Upon return-
ing to their team hotel, Michigan
coach Newt Loken had a huge
sign posted that simply stated,
"Only 365 days left until the 1974
gymnastics meet at Penn State."
Michigan never say die gym-
nasts gave it the ole college try
yesterday in 'their attempt to en-
ter the NCAA team finals today.
The Wolverine's score of 318.65
left them in fourth place, missing
the finals, as leading Iowa State
(324.85), charging Penn State
(322.80) and third place Indiana
State 321.20 will battle it out.
For a while it looked like Michi-
gan was on its way to duplicating
the miracle rally it staged to take
the Big Ten Title, but a complete
cave-in in the final two events put
out the fire.
After watching Indiana State
score a 161.30 in their session,
Michigan went to work knowing
it needed a score of 162.2 to fly'
into third place.
l)eterined to overcome their
rivals, the Wolverines started well
w ith a 26.55 free exercise mark.
Ward Black led the way with a
crowd pleasing 9.25 effort. From
the format, the sidehorse was the'
next stop and with solid efforts
from Richard Hansen (8.9) and
Jerry Poynton (8.8) it looked like
they were on thei- way. The rings
was another indication of an ap-
parent Michigan rally when they
scored a very respectable 26.95.
'linty Fald's brilliant 9.3 and
Jo Neuenswander's 9.05 were the
top marks. The climax of the
Michigan rally was the vaulting
event where the Wolverine's
stunned the crowd with an amaz-
ing 28 point score. Vierre Le-
Clerc turned in a fantastic 9.45
for his roundoff back sommer-
sault while Ray Gura added a re- 1972 Cy Young Award winner,
markable 9.3 and Jean Gagnon Steve Carlton, 3-0, in their 1973
