SPENCER PLAYED WELL
Losinig only one game to the
strong Drake University net squad,
the Wolverines took their secornd
match of the season by a 5-1 score.
Captain Barton was the only Mich-
igan man to drop his match, being
beaten 6-3, 6-4 by Brody in. the
number one set-to. Brody display-
ed. a wide variety of shots, which,
mixed with some fine returns, were
too much for the Wolf leader, who
was distinctly off form in the
singles match.
Hammer Takes Singles
However, in the doubles with
Hammer as his partner, Barton
showed to much better advantage.
and 'was a distinct factor in the
7-5, 6-2 win which they turned in
over Brody and Everett. In his
singles match, Hammer came ,back
after a poor start in which he lost
the first set, 4-6, to win the next
two 8-6 and 7-5. Both of the last'
two sets were closely contested, as
the score indicates, the Wolverine
number two man showing a hard I
game after the first set was out of
the way. Evertt did not hit the
ball hard, but placed his shots with
great accuracy, as did Brody, and
had developed a powerful service.
nearly always winning on it in the
first two sets. However, in the de-
ciding one, Hammer broke through
with much iliore ease.
Spencer Beats Modeer
Jim Spencer turned in a fine per-
formance in winning his match
from Modeer by a score of 6-2, 6-2.
Although hampered by the high .
wind and slow court, the Michigan
man appeared to be in mid-season.
form, placing his shots well and
showing great speed on his service.
Only four matches were played,
and in the last Bob Beal took a
one sided victory from Mildeer of
Drake with the score 6-2, 6-0. The
Des Moines southpaw could not'
seem to get going, repeatedly play-
ing shots into the net after seem-

Upsets featured Saturday's base-
ball games in the Big Ten when
Indiana and Purdue each droppedl
from the undefeated class, and1
Wisconsin went into a tie with
Michigan for the Big Ten lead. Chi-
cago turned the tables on Purdue
by downing the Boilermakers, 8-7,1
in an exciting contest, while Wis-
consin opened the season with al
5-1 victory over Indiana.
Fish's home run in the ninth in-
ning with two of his mates on base
gave Chicago its margin of victory
over the Purdue nine. George Lott
of Davis Cup fame was the starting
pitcher for the Maroons, but he
was chased in the fifth inning when
the Boilermakers tallied four runs.
The game marked Purdue's first de-
feat in 10 games this season. t
Wisconsin Looks Good
Farber, Wisconsin pitcher, exhib-
ited a high-class brand of pitching
in his initial Conference game of
the season, limiting the Hoosiers to
three hits. Paugh, veteran Indiana
hurler, was found for 12 hits by the
Cardinal batters. Wisconsin gave
evidence that it must be figured as
a strong competitor in the Big Ten
diamond race, as the Badgers com-
bined perfect fielding with good
pitching and batting. Five Indiana
errors aided the Wisconsin cause.
Illinois gained revenge on Ohio
State by defeating the Buckeyes,
6-2, at Columbus. Capt. Don An-
drews scattered Ohio's eight. hits
effectively, shutting out the opposi-
tion after the first inning. The Il-
lini drove Kermode, Buckeye pitch-
er, to the showers in the fifth in-
ning, when they scored four runs.
Ohio commited three errors.
Iowa Beats Wildcats
With two wins over Illinois to
their credit, Northwestern's Wild-
cats fell before Iowa, 7-3, in 10 in-
nings. After a pitchers' battle be-
tween Heideman of Northwestern,

(and Carlson and Twogood of Iowa,
the former weakened in the tenth,
when five hits and an error gave
the Hawkeyes four runs. It was
Iowa's first Big Ten victory. The
Hawkeyes gathered 14 hits, while
INorthwestern made five errors.-
Sahs led Iowa at bat withethree',
hits.
I Cancellation of the Minnesota
game last week left Michigan with-
out a Big Ten contest until May 11,
when the Illini will come to Ferry
field. In the meantime Colgate
and Meiji university will provide
the Wolverine opposition. Thus
Michigan is assured of first place
for at least 10 days more. Wiscon-
I sin is carded to play Illinois this
Saturday.
'CLOSE GAME GOS, T
'S. LUSI DER T
Yesterday's activities in the
American League found Detroit on
the wrong end of a 3 to 2 score that
came only after ten innings of
baseball had been played at Navin
. Field. Gray held the mound posi-
- tion while Vic Sorrell did thei
twirling for the neighboring city.
Pounding out a couple of homers
in the third inning and pulling a
coup of five runs in the eight gave
the Athletics an impressive 10 to 1
victory over the Yankees. Haas and
Simons were responsible for the
'homers. In the other contest
staged, Chicago beat Cleveland 13
to 4 while Washington and Boston
were on the rest list.
Only two games were played in
the National circuit. Chicago took
the toll from Cincinnati Red Six;
with the final count standing 4 to
3. The Windy City ball team gar-
nered 13 hits to 9 for the Reds. St.
Louis defeated Pittsburgh 7 to 3.
