WEDNESDAY, MAY 304,1934 .THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE Baseball Team Seeks Second Win Over State At Lan sini Ir Over 100,000 Will Watch Annual Speedway Classic Toda STAR* ---- . _. * DUST *-By ART CARSTENS-+: Track Shorts.. :. -.* * * TRACK COACH Chuck Hoyt pro- pounded one of the indisputable truths of sport yesterday while dis- cussing the Big Ten track meet, held recently at Evanston. He said, "I've been taking Michigan teams to big meets for 11 years now. After we win I come back to the dressing rooms af- ter the meet and I can hardly get in. I have to shove my way through," and he gestured with his elbows, "to get to the boys. The room is full of men who are letting it be known that they went to Michigan." "It wasn't that way at Evanston this year. I walked into the locker room after the meet - there wasn't any shouting and boasting by old grads. There weren't any there - just the team and trainers." * * * Hoyt added his name to the list of those who support our campaign to get more dual track mets and the Big Ten meet here next year. He at- tributed Evanston's apparently-per- manent hold on the Conference meet to th fact that no other school had put in a serious bid for it in the last seven years. Our job now seems to be to make Athletic Director Fielding H. Yost track-minded. RE-HASHING the Conference meet, Hoyt added his tribute to the hundreds already written about Willis Ward's work. Newspaper accounts said Ward was running even with Russell, Illinois, in the 100 when his leg failed. "Why, Ken Doherty and I were sitting in the stands across the field during the race and we could see from there that Ward was six feet in the lead when the accident oc- curred. He got away to a wonderful start, off the blocks like lightning, and was ready to snap into the final sprint. I had already guessed that he would do :09.5." "One of the most moving sights I have ever seen was the 'Big Boy' lean- ing against that second hurdle in the high's and watching Sandbach win it. He really felt bad." ONE of the most unusual members of what Hoyt is already calling his "cosmopolitan" track team for next year has Choctaw Indian blood in his veins. George W. Scott, Jr., '37Ed, hails from a reservation in Stigler, Oklahoma. Scarcely five- foot-six, Scotty talks with a cowboy drawl and can sprint like the devil. He held the state title in Oklahoma with a :09.7 hundred and ran the cen- tury in .10.3 yesterday, although he has not been training. Jolly Awards Numerals To 6 Freshmen Golfers Freshmen numerals were award- ed to six yearling golfers, accord- ing to an announcement made yesterday by Coach Alex Jolly, last year's Varsity captain. The team has been well rounded this year, Coach Jolly said, with Allan Saun- ders of Coldwater the only really outstanding performer. The numeral winners were de- cided in a 36-hole tournament played over the week-end. The following men turned in scores which won them awards. Allan Saunders, Coldwater 77- 78-155. George Waterman, Cleveland 83-82 - 165. John Palmer, Grand Rapids 81- 86-167. Art Emerson, Highland Park, Ill., 88-84 -172. Fred Fehlmann, San Diego, Cal., 84-84- 168. Thomas Fisher, Anderson, Ind., 81-84 - 165. Bill xGriffiths of Detroit was to have taken part in the tourna- ment, but was forced to withdraw when called home because of seri- ous illness in the family. Coach Jolly was undecided about Grif fiths, but may give him an op- portunity to compete for the freshman award. Blue Raiders Capture Baseball, Tennis Titles The Blue Raiders, the outstanding independent team in intramural com- petition, captured both the baseball and tennis championships yesterday, rdefeatine the T-Tmntu Tl imnt ha- Patchin Due To Hurl Last Out- Of-Town Game In 500-Mile Grind Thirty-three To Drive In 22nd 500-Mile Race Team Will Choose Valuable Player Tilt Today Most' After Louis Meyer, Winner '28 And '33, Seeks Third Triumph In His The Michigan nine will embark on its last road trip of the season today, headed for Lansing where the Wol- verines will engage Michigan State this afternoon in a return game. Michigan administered a 13-3 drub- bing to the Spartans here, early in the month, when Patchin confined State to five hits. Patchin will attempt to duplicate his previous performance against State today, as Coach Ray Fisher has selected him to pitch the final road game of the year. The husky right hander has been a good hurler in non- Conference games, and an excellent relief pitcher, but he hasn't been very fortunate as a starter against Big Ten nines. He Aon two games, against Michigan State and Michigan Nor, mal, and lost a well-pitched contest to Western State. He beat North- western after relieving Tillotson in the sixth. He holds victories by virtue of relief work, over Michigan Normal, and Toledo, but he hasn't won any of his three Conference starts. Opposing the Wolverines on the mound will be Berg, the lanky right hander with the free leg motion, who ;oes into numerous contortions be- fore he delivers the ball. Can Pass .500 Mark If Michigan wins today, the team will forge above the .500 mark, with 12 wins and 11 losses. In the Con- ference, Michigan has won five games while dropping six, and the final game of the season Saturday, on Ferry Field, against Iowa, will give the Wol- verines an opportunity to close the league-season's activities with a .5001 percentage. Never in the 13 years that Coach Ray Fisher has been coaching Michigan nines, has his team finished below the .500 mark in the Conference, and the boys are de- termined their efforts will not pro- vide the first time. John Regeczi's hitting has been the feature of the recent games. John is one of those natural hitters who swings from his heels. He misses sometimes but he manages to connect at least once in every game. His pow- erful bat has placed him in a close race with Petoskey for extra base drives. To Choose Mos't Valuable Man After the State game today, the Wolverines will meet. to select the man, who in their opinion, has been of the most value to the team. In addition to the team vote, Coach Fisher, the sports departments of the Ann Arbor Daily News, and The Michigan Daily, will also cost votes. The player receiving three of the four ballots will attain the honorary position. The same procedure will be observed in each of the Big Ten schools, and a list of the ten names will be submitted to each school. The coaches will indicate their choice in the order of preference, and the play- er acquiring the most points will be recognized the most valuable in the Conference. BATTING AVERAGES I -Associated Press Photo "Wild Bill" Cummings is one of the 33 most daring drivers in the country who will compete today in the 22nd annual 500 mile automobile race at Indianapolis. He and the rest of the field will start the long grind at 10 a.m. and endeavor to replace Louis Meyer as defending champion of the speedway. WOMIEN'S S PORTS Track? Whether or not Michigan's co-eds would like track included in their physical education schedules was a question bound to arise after the results of the Field Day participation last week became known. The two track events, the 200-yard shuttle re- lay and the obstacle race, proved the most attractive of all the events scheduled, according to the numbers who entered them. Although the obstacle race was chiefly one of mere fun for the en- trants, the 200-yard relay was really a 50-yard dash, and as such was the first introduction to track competi- tion that the co-eds outside of the Physical Education Major school have had. Dr. Margaret Bell, who always gives her heartiest support to any project that the womeni I of the campus seem interested in along the athletic line, thinks it would be a fine thing to incor- porate it into the schedule, either in Intramurals or the class activ- ities list. "Track as an DR. BELL activity has' been on the women's schedule in the past, but has been abandoned due to a lack of interest. If, however, at the present time the interest has been re- vived, the women have only to show enough interest in it to have it in- cluded on the program of sports," Dr. Bell said. "Not only are the straight track events usually popular," she con- tinued, "but also the field events such as javelin, discus, and baseball throw." (She ought to know, she held the world's record for this latter event once.) As a result of speculation con- cerning the popularity of track and whether it should be made one of the regular sports, a poll will probably be taken next fall when the new gym classes are formed and select their ac- tivities. Although the Michigan schedule is one of the fullest and most varied now among the colleges of the country, the list would be complete with the addition of track. INDIANAPOLIS, May 29. - VP) - The vanguard of race-going throng of more than 100,000 pushed into the Hoosier capital today for the 22nd annual 500-mile automobile classic at the Indianapolis motor speedway. Inside the huge racing plant west of the city workmen washed an ac- cumulation of oil from the brick course and put the place in order for the spectacle of speed. At 10 a.m., (central- standard time) tomorrow, Kelly Petillo of Los An- geles, Calif., will roar over the starting line in the pole position, leading a field of 33 of the country's most dar-1 ing drivers. Petillo Has Pole Petillo won the pole with a record 119.329 miles an hour average in the 25-mile qualifying test. All the cars surpassed the 100-mile-an-hour aver- age required. Back in the fifth row will be Louis Meyer of South Gate, Calif., seeking his third triumph in the blue-ribbon event of American speedways. Meyer received the checkered flag in 1928 and again in 1933, and is the only former winner to start this year's event. Fred Frame of Los Angeles, the 1931 winner, was the victim of a mis- hap during his attempt to qualify yesterday when his racer crashed against a wall and could not be re- paired in time for another try. Frame and Al Thieson of Dayton, O., escaped injury. Frame has two other speed- sters in the starting field, however, and can serve as a relief driver. Varied Models Entered Sixteen of the racers are powered with four-cylinder engines, including the two oil-burning cars entered; 15 have eight cylinders and two use 16- cylinder power plants. Four are front- wheel-drive creations; one is driven fromi all four wheels and the others are the convention rear-drive type. For the first time, the drivers will be limited to use of 45 gallons of gaso- line during the race. Speedway offi- cials believe this will eliminate some of the excessive speed which has pro- duced numerous accidents on the course. A comparable restriction placed on the qualifying trials, kept the 16-cylinder, two-cycle-car entered by the 'veteran Leon Duray i from qualifying yesterday. By motor, by air and on regular and special trains the crowds poured into the city today. Some jammed hotels; others camped along road- sides near the speedway. CHANGING FACES Opening day line-ups of this year's Pacific Coast league baseball race revealed the names of but 25 players, outside of batterymen, who were regulars with the eight teams last- season. ANGLER'S PARADISE-PERHAPS Rainbow and speckled trout are reported unusually plentiful in streams of the Great Smoky Moun- tain national park this season. Varsity And Freshman Net Awards Announced Seven Varsity, three secondary, and nine freshman tennis awards for 1934 were announced yester- day by Coach Johnny Johnstone.

Y.; Robert Ed- monds, Detroit; and Robert Wil- der, West Haven, Conn., *will be the recipients of freshman nu- merals. Cohen and Anderson are transfers, the former being a sophomore and the latter a junibr. Cardinals And Indians etain Lea ue Leads The Cleveland Indians stayed a half game ahead of -the New York Yankees, who were idle yesterday, by virtue of a shutout victory over Chicago, 5 to 0. Mel Harder pitched the Indians to their fifth straight victory by allowing the White Sox only five hits. In the National League the New York Giants came within one per- centage point of second place. The veteran Adolphe Luque pitched su- perb ball to defeat Brooklyn. 4 to 3. The St. Louis Browns. led by Ray Pepper, defeated the Detroit Tigers, 12 to 7. Pepper hit two homers and three singles in five chances. Three By MORTON MANN Inter-fraternity competition for the year 1933-34 is over. Theta Chi re- peated its success of last year by again taking first place, and again Alpha Lambda was second. The winner's score this year is practically the same as it was last year, and Alpha Kappa Lambda scored about twenty points less. Three first places in different events and a lot of seconds and thirds won for the champions. Their vic- tories were in speedball, all fraternity swimming meet, and class A basket- ball. Other victors in events are Psi Up- silon in both dual swimming and water polo, wrestling for Tau Delta Phi, indoor track for Theta Xi, hand- ball and foul throwing for Phi Beta Delta, indoor relays for Alpha Kappa Lambda, cross country for Phi Kappa Psi, class "B" basketball for Sigma Alpha Epsilon, volley ball for Delta Alpha Epsilon, bowling for Delta Kap- pa Epsilon, and baseball for Sigma Nu. Tennis will be finished next week, and the two finalists are Alpha Lamb- da Kappa and Phi Kappa Psi. Horse- shoes will be completed shortly, with Phi Beta Delta and Alpha Kappa Lambda fighting for that title. Sigma Delta Psi competition is over, but all the points scored haven't been added yet. of the "Big Ten," made up of Alpha Omega, Phi Beta Delta, Tau Delta Phi, and Tau Kappa Epsilon. There has been competition among the graduate fraternities entered in the big race for the professional or- ganization trophy, won last year by Phi Lambda Kappa, the team that won this year. Competition for that minor award was very keen, espe- cially between the winner and Alpha Omega, who were leading most of the race. The last few contests, namely horseshoes, tennis, and baseball put Alpha Omega out of the running. In two of those contests, it was Phi Lambda Kappa who did the putting out. For a professional fraternity to be in the first ten is quite an ac- complishment, but to place third among all the teams entered is quite (a record. Although the point score is not com- pleted yet, the results cannot be changed. If Alpha Kappa Lambda wins all three events that are unde- cided, they still will be in second place, and the same with the positions of all other teams still competing. "Best Season," Says Riskey "This season was a success," said Earl Riskey, organizer of fraternity competition and the man in (-.arge of the Intramural publicity. "Although we've had more teams compete be- fore when there were more fraternities on campus, more men actually played in contests this year. Interest is grow- ing every year, and more teams scored points this year than ever before. It has been the best season so far." Fraternity Sport Season Ends; Theta Chi Fir st, A.K.L. Second Professional Fraternity 'hird Listed below Theta Chi and Alpha Kappa Lambda are Phi Lambda Kap- pa, a professional fraternity, Phi Kappa Psi, and Theta Xi. Pi Lambda Phi was sixth, leading the lower half home runs were delivered by team. American League eachI Cleveland ... New York .. Detroit ...... Washington . St. Louis .... Boston .....
