Ohio State Nine
Strong Despite
Three Defeats
Wistert Will Hurl Today;
Big Homecoming Crowd
Is Expected
The Ohio State nine will lead oft
against the Wolverines today at Ferry
Field, in the opener of a two game
series. The second engagement be-
tween the teams will take place to-
morrow. Both games are part of the
homecoming entertainment, and a
large crowd is expected. Diversion
between innings will be presented by
the University band, which will be
present for both games.
Michigan is expecting plenty of
competition from the Buckeyes, de-
spite their unimposing record of two
Conference wins against three losses.
Ohio lost a close game to the league-
leading Illini in the ninth inning
after leading them throughout the
game. They dropped a 5 to 4 deci-
sion to Indiana, although Williams,
their ace hurler, held the Hoosiers
to two hits. The Buckeyes beat In-
diana the next day, 6 to 4.
Both Slugging Teams
The real reason for Michigan's
worries goes back to the two games
played between Michigan and Ohio
State at Columbus. In a weird series,
Michigan won the first contest, 17
to 2, and Ohio handed the Wolver-
ines a 16 to 2 lacing the following
day. Michigan sent Ohio's star hur-
ler, Williams to the showers early
in the first game, and the Buck-
eyes retaliated by knocking out
Patchin, one of Michigan's two-man
pitching staff, in the third inning
the next day. Both hurlers will be
out to redeem themselves in this
series, but Ohio State with four slug-
gers in McAfee, Prosenjak, Clowson,
and Vidis, and Michigan with the
hard hitting Artz, Paulson, Petoskey,
and Oliver nray turn the games into
a marathon around the bases.
The Wolverines are now in third
place, but a double victory over Ohio,
((and defeats to Illinois and, Iowa,
will put them in first place.
Wistert to Start
"Whitey" Wistert will start on the
mound today, with Art Patchin com-
ipg back against the Buckeyes to-
morrow. Ohio's pitching nominees
will be chosen from the trio of Blue,
Williams, and Ulrich.
If several "ifs" materialize, a dou-
ble victory for Michigan will be high-
ly probable If Wistert can duplicate
the brand of hurling he exhibited in
the Illinois game last Saturday, if
Patchin continues to pitch the way
lie has in his last two starts, if the
infield performs as it did against
Michigan Normal, Tuesday, and if
the boys hit the way they have all
season, Michigan's nine will be in-
vincible.
Infield is Sensational
In the Michigan Normal game, it
was well nigh impossible for the Ypsi
batters to drive a ball through Mich-
igan's infield. Paulson, Oliver, and
Petoskey showed the fans some field-
ing that they couldn't have seen in
the major leagues. Paulson, espe-
cially, has been fielding sensationally
around second base since the Eastern
trip. He is the diving type of ball
player who dives, and comes up with
balls an ordinary second baseman
wouldn't try for. He is also the sec-
ond highest ranking hitter on the
team with an average of 392.

Far Outclassed
By Wolverines
Strong Wind Makes For
Drab Tennis Exhibition;
Siegel Stars
By KEN PARKER
Playing in a viriual sand storm,
the University of Michigan tennis
team defeated Oberlin College yes-
terday at the Ferry Field courts and
hung up its second shut-out victory
of the season, 9 to 0. the Wolverines
having defeated M. S. N. C., 12 to 0,
in the first match of the season.
Oberlin presented a team that has
been able to clean up on the small
colleges in Ohio thus far this spring,
but yesterday the Yeomen stepped
out of their class. They didn't win
a single set out of the six singles and
three doubles matches played.
The visitors in a way expected as
much. They had been defeated by
Michigan State 8 to 1, and Michigan
was downed by the same team, 5 to
4, the narrowest possible margin.
Siegel Stars
A hard wind, coning from the
north west, sweeping across the
courts ,and carrying a considerable
quantity of sand with it, bothered
the players and accounted for the
drab exhibition of tennis, The match
between Sam Siegel and Charlie
Olds in the second ranking match,
however, proved to be the best con-
test of the day. Siegel has probably
the best assortment of shots of any
man on the Michigan squad. Yes-
terday he had good control and a-
other attribute he has seldom showed
before, aggressiveness. He trailed
Olds in the first set, 3-5, but turned
about and copped the next five games
to win, 7-5. The following set was
easy, 6-3.
Daniel Kean, playing number one,
outsteadied Johnny Naef, 6-3, 6-3.
Naef exhibited one of the hardest
serves seen on the courts here this
year. When he put the ball inside
with every thing he had on it, Kean
couldn't get it back. But Naef didn't
get his serve over frequently enough
and he didn't have sufficient control
of his stroke. game to get very far
with the steady, unperturbed Daniel
Kean.
Kahn Wins Again
Howard Kahn continued to keep
his slate clean, by defeating Brad
Potter for his fifth consecutive sin-
gles win of the year, 6-1, 6-2. Joe
Appelt set Russ Sperry down, 6-1, 6-4.
Bill Bowles coasted through Tick
Klock, 6-1, 6-1. And Captain Clint
Sandusky won out over Johnny Reid,
chalking up the only love set of the
day, 6-3, 6-0.
In the doubles, Siegel and Appet
defeated Reid and Sperry, 6-1, 7-5.
Kean and Kahn defeated Olds and
Klock, 6-3, 6-2. Baldwin and Esko-
witz defeated Neaf and Potter, 6-2,
6-2. And that was that: 9 to 0. The
last of the fans saw of the Ferry Field
courts, the wind was still blowing,
the sand was still whirling about
and the canvas windbreakers were
still flapping disinterestedly.

BASEBALL
Led by Lou Gehrig, their slugging
first baseman, the New York Yan-

White Sox, 13-3, and gained a stran-

at bat, collecting four hits for a to-

and sixth homers of the year to take
second place in the 1934 home run

with eight scattered hits. Earnshaw
