EAST LANSING, May 25. - An
outfit of nine fighting Wolverines
stemmed a last-minute rallyby
Michigfani State's diamond team
here this afternoon to win out by
a score of 4-3. McNeal was the win-
nine; hurler, and Griffith, Spartan'
southpaw star, the losing pitcher.
The afternoon's battle marked the
Wolves' First win over the stellar
left-hander from State out of 'i;
starts.
The Spartans drew first blood in
the second frame, tallying one run.
Michigan scored a counter in the
third to even matters, and the game
was all even until the seventh when
the Maize and Blue batters man-
aged to break through and score
another, augmenting it with a
third run in the eighth and a
fourth in the first half of the ninth.
In the second half of the last
inning, State pulled the traditional
rally and aanaged to score two
runs. An error by Stan Waterbor
placed a runner on first. McCann
tripled to center, scoring one run,
and he scored on a grounder by
Morse played to first. Fawcett and
Eliowitz struck out.
Tompkins was replaced on the
mound by McNeal at the beginning
of the fourth inning; McNeal scor-
ed six strike-outs in the six innings
1 he pitched. Griffin of the Spartans
was able to fan only three in the
full nine innings.
The Wolverines scored in the sec-
and when Manuel doubled, Tomp-
kins sacrificed, and Superko drove
out a single. In the seventh, Diffley
singled, and Daniels tripled for the
score. Waterbor hit, took second on
an error, and was scored by Braen-
die's double in the eighth frame. In
the final inning, Diffley singled,
Daniels sacrificed, and Wistert dou-
bled for the score.
Michigamua Braves
Set Out for Blood;

Listen to this tale of romance,
Tale of Indian warriors bold-
In the early moon of greenleaves
Came they forth the stoics
valiant;
Forth they romped to paleface
wigwam,
Wigwam once of friend Great
Chief ,
Paleface mighty among his kind;
Came hie:forth to take their token
Of the warpath they would tread.
Then to the mighty oak of
Tappan
Dashed the screaming,,yelling
redmen;
To the tree of Indian legend
When the white man pale and
trembling
Stood around the mighty oak;
Warriors (4\oice of pale face
nation,
Choice of tribe to run the
gauintl et.;
Down the wariors, painted
demons,
Swooped and caught their prey
like eagles,
Loud the war cry stirred the
stillness.
As they seized their hapless
captives,
Forth they bore them to their
wigwam
There to torture at their pleasureI
There they ate around the
glowing bonfires,
Heard the words of mighty
wisdom,
Smoked the pipe of peace and1
friendship.
Thus there came to Michigamua:
Karl Seiffert, William Elliott,
Frank Gilbreth, Hawley Eggleston,
