BADGERS TO FETE NEW GRID COACH (Specialto 1T eDal) MADISON, Wis., April 20. - A hearty welcome, good fellowship and a real outpouring of the old Wisconsin spirit will feature the program of the banquet to be ten- dered Dr. Clarence W. Spears, Wis- consin's new football cpach, on April 27. The program committee, headed by Jerry Riordan, has promised that there will be a minimum of ponderous oratory, that most of the talks will be brief and that all will be entertaining and very much to the point-to pledge sincere sup- port to the man who has been chosen to guide Wisconsin's future football fortunes. The complete list of speakers will be announced soon. A.K.L. Again Tops List in Fraternity p o r t s Alpha Kappa Lambda, fraternity athletic champions for 1931, are making a strong bid for the 1932 honors. By annexing titles in the three sports, speed-ball, volley ball, and track, they got off to a big lead with 1,016 points to their nearest rivals' 785. After Delta Alpha Epsilon which stands second, comes Delta Sigma Phi with 744 markers. Alpha Omega, last year's professional winner, has tallied 673 for fourth place, and Theta Xi is fifth with 644. Only the spring sports: indoor baseball, tennis, horse-shoes, and Sigma Delta Psi contests remain on the fraternity card. Competition will be brought to an end May 30. Long Bob Burke. tall, slender Washington left -hander pitched the Solons to a 4 to 3 win over Bos- ton. A two-run rally off the de- livery of Danny Mac Fayden in the ninth brought victory to the Na- tionals. - The New York Yankees took ex- ception to the offerings of Bob Grove and slugged out an 8 to S victory over the Philadelphia nine.G Babe Ruth, Bill Dickey, and Sammy Byrd crashed home runs for the winners. In the other contest in the Junior Loop Sam Gray, of St. Lou s ban~ked the White Sox for the second time this year, winning 5 to 0. In the National League the Bos- ton Braves moved into first place by the simple expedient of being idle. The best pitching performance of the day in the Older circuit was turned in by Steve Swetonic. The Pittsburgh hurler blanked the St. Louis Cardinals, allowing them only a trio of base hits, and won 7 to 0. it was the fifth consecutive defeat suffered by the Red Birds.

EitheraHarley McNeal or Francis Wistert appear to be slated to re- ceive the pitching assignment on Saturday when the Wolverine base- ball team meet the championship nine from Illinois in the opening conference game of the season. McNeal pitched a fine game against the Normal aggregation on Tuesday, but the excellent work of Wistert in the last two innings may give him the call over last year's regular. Base Running Faulty. Although the baseball displayed against Ypsi was not of big-league calibre, Coach Fisher is well sat- isfied with their showing. Faulty base running was the factor tlmt contributed most to the defeat, bad sliding into bases losing close de- cision which later would have pro- duced runs. ' In an attempt to get more punch into the offense, Fisher made sev- eral switches in the lineup in yes- torday's practice. The team which the Illini will bring here Saturday looks stronger than the Wolves, and, as the hurling may not be enough to stop the Indians, Fisher is seeking to put more batting punch into the lineup. Fielding Drill Held. Yesterday's lengthy fielding drill should improve the ball handling considerably for the encounter Sat- urday. For more than an hour the regulars were kept in the field while the remainder of the squad cracked out the offerings iof two substitute hurlers: Ted Petoskey continued his slugging of Tuesday's game with several hard liners. Considerable improvement was shown in the fielding, especially pleasing being the work of Norm Daniels at second. The veteran in- fielder handled m a n y chances clearly, and on several attempts made sparkling plays that elicted praise from Coach Fisher. Stan Waterbor occupied the hot corner most of the session and pro- duced some fielding gems that cut off sure hits., Manuel was shifted from first to short, where his play was not particularly gratifying. He seemed to have some difficulty in becoming accustomed to the posi- tion, his lack of speed allowing many hits to go through him. See Page 6 FOR THE MILITARY BALL FRIDAY THE 29th AT THE UNION Win Over Northwestern Outfit Assures Them of Tie for First Half of Race. (Special to The Daily) IOWA CITY, April 20.-A tie for first in the Western conference baseball standing will be at least the position of the University of Iowa team throughout the first half of the season. This was assured lest Friday when the Hawkcyes defeated North- western in the season's opining conference game, thereby becoming the first Iowa team in five years to win the Big Ten diamond opener. To Play Michigan Next. Not until the Michigan game at Iowa City May 6 will the Iowans re-enter Big Ten competition, so it will be impossible for the team to lose its elevated place until then. Meanwhile, Coach Otto H. Vogel's smart nine, which whipped North- western by timely hitting and in- telligent baserunning, plays col- legiate teams this week, Iowa State Teachers at Cedar Falls Friday and Carleton at Northfield, Minn., Sat- urday. Vogel Works on Pitchers. Development of the pitchers to a higher point of efficiency is sought by the Iowa coach. Wil- iam Ricke, veteran who handled most of the Northwestern game, displayed an alarming wobbliness at intervals, although his mates gave him perfect support in th- field despite a steady drizzle which made fielding hazardous. What John Ingraham, Iowa'3 best pitcher during the past two seasons, could do under conferenc i fire is yet to be learned this ygar, I tennis players around to top iorm the earliest in years, chances for a win over the strong Detroit Ten- nis club team in the annual Wol- verine-Detroit match Saturday look biighter than they have in the past few years. Since the Detroiters last year scored a triumph on rain soaked courts, the Maize and Blue aggre- gation, which will most ilkely be composed of Captain Ryan, Clarke, Pendell, Reindel, Clark and Snell, will be out for a complete reversal in the outcome. I TENNIS PLAYERS Are Well Conditioned. * Indicna enters the meet as one of the outstanding threats because of the good early season condition of the Hayesmen. The Crimson squad swept thirough everything it en- countered in indoor track. Coach Hayes began outdoor work in earn- est this week and the men worked intensively in the Memorial stad- ium regardless of rain, wind, and cold weather. Coach Dean's diamond team's on- ly game for the week is against Purdue Friday afternoon at Lafay- ette in the first of a three game series this season.
