THE MICHIGAN DAILY uckeyc Nine Opens Two-Game Homecoming Series p _ 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. Students will be admitted on their athletic coupon books. A general ad- mission price of 25 cents will be charged.

Visiting Netmen 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. -i - Friday and Saturday Specials Michaels Stern Suits Out Of -Associated Press Photo That's the ambition of Jimmy Dykes (above), peppery third base- man who has been named manager of the last-place Chicago White Sox to replace Lew Fonseca.
