of Ohio State, who set a new Big Ten
record by tossing the shot 65'7". Akins

Club Sports Roundup
RUGBY
The Michigan baseball team may have won four straight games to advan-
ce to the College World Series, but this is not the only winning streak among
Michigan teams. Michigan's 'A' rugby team notched its fifth straight win
this past Saturday against Grand Rapids.
The Wolverine's 22-6 victory at Grand Rapids improved their record to 12-
1-2. The Michigan attack was once again paced by John Hartman. Hartman
scored two tries (eight points) and two penalty goals (six points).
David Weber also helped make the day a long one for Grand Rapids as he
scored two tries. Grand Rapids could muster only two penalty goals during
the contest.
The 'B' team which had destroyed the Detroit Tradesmen's 'H' the
previous weekend had the tables turned on it this weekend as it ended up on
the wrong side of a 12-6 score.
SAILING
Second place finishers are said to try harder, but in the case of the
Michigan sailing team a runner-up placing served virtually the same pur-
pose as a victory.
In their meets on May 9-10 and May 16, in which the top two teams in each
earned a spot in the national meet to be held on June 8, Michigan placed
second to Ohio Weslyan both times.
In the Mid-West Intercollegiate Sailing Championships held at Michigan
State on the ninth and tenth, the Wolverines beat out the host Spartans for
the second berth to the nationals.
Sailing for Michigan on Lake Lansing were Doug Wefer (skipper), Harry
Levinson (skipper), and Scott Ferguson (skipper), Joanne Kure, Sarah
Crane and Ellen Brody.
On the sixteenth, the Wolverines competed in the Midwest Dinghy Cham-
pionships at the University of Wisconsin. This meet was a team versus team
race in which all the squads had all their boats on the water, and the team
whose boats placed highest, were given the fewest points.
Ohio Weslyan won with 43 points, followed by Michigan and Miami of Ohio
with 49 and60 points respectively.
The nationals will be held at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis,
Maryland on the mouth of the Severn River. Sixteen teams will compete.
