PRIL 20, 1935 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE TE Golfers To Open Season Against Spartans Today At Lansing v _ L 1' STAR * DUST *-By ART CARSTENS-. 4 EVERY NOW AND THEN our desk gets all cluttered up with corre- spondence so that, on days like this, when it's far more pleasant to sit, on the Angell Hall steps than slave over a typewriter, we like to kill two birds with one stone and run a few of the better letters. Here they are: Dear Sir: I understand that there is a good story connected with one of the mo- tor-driven lawn mowers used at the University golf course. I'm not sure of the details and so won't try to tell you the tale, but I'm sure you can get it by asking Mr. Yost about the lawn1 mower he bought on the installment; plan several years ago. Be sure to find out if the last payment has been made yet. Yours, AGENT PROVOCATEUR. Dear Art: IDwas so, so sorry that we couldn't get together on that date for the opening baseball game in Detroit which you so generously suggested. I1 would have LOVED to go, but didn't have a single thing to wear. And, of course, the girls here in the house would think I was being too, too bold to call up a boy that I hadn't met. Oceans of regret, DOROTHY FAN. Dear Dorothy Fan: Maybe neither of us missed any- thing. Relieved, STAR DUST. * * * Dear Sir: I'll bet you're the guy whorode to Detroit with me three times in three weeks last winter. This fellow,. whoever he was, apparently didn't recognize his benefactor (me) and gave me the same guff about the Michigan football each time.; Of course I couldn't interrupt him to tell him to shut up, since he was my guest, but I certainly would have liked to brain him with a wrench the third time. That taught me a lesson though, I've stopped picking up hitch-hikers in college towns. ' Yours, OUTRAGED MOTORIST. Dear Art: That ws great human-int rest stuff you had in your column this morning about Neree Alix, but shed- ding a tear or two over his sad plight isn't going to pay his room and board when he gets out'of the hospital. Can't something tangible be done for him? Sincerely,, TACK FAN. Dear Sir: Why in hell do't you try writing about sports in that column of yours more often. This series on "Sports That Are Not Sports"! Ugh! A SPORTS FAN. Dear Sir: You're certainly ringing the bell with that series on "Sports That Are Not Sports"; I've lost money on the baffle-boards and horses myself. Yours, A STUDENT. Tigers Lose Final Gaine With Sox, 3-2 Charley Gehringer's first home run of the year was not enough to win for Detroit yesterday in the final game of the year's first series with the Chi- cago White Sox, who won 3-2. Gehringer's smash cae in the first inning with Manager Cochrane on base 'and accounted jor the only Tiger runs of the game. Johnny Whitehead, young rookie hurler from Dallas held the Tigers to three scat- tered hits after the first inning. Fred Marberry went to the route for Detroit and allowed eight hits. Golfers To Play Three Rounds Instead Of One Freshman and Varsity golfers competing for vacant positions must turn in by Sunday properly attested cards for three rounds instead of one, as was stated in The Daily yesterday because of an error in proof correction. Eight Michigan Men Expected To Win Easily1 Best Ball Foursome And Individual Play Will Be Combined In Meet Eight Wolverine golfers leave AnnI Arbor by car for East Lansing at 9 a.m. today to engage the Michigan State Spartans in a dual ,match over the Lansing Country Club course.i The meet will be what is termed a "nassau." There will be both in- dividual and best ball foursome matches, but both will be played at the same time. For example, the Michigan one and two men will play together against the State one and two men, and at the same time theE Michigan number one man, probably Johnny Fischer tomorrow, will wage! an individual battle with Eddie Rior- dan, probable State number one man. The Lansing Country Club is not; a particularly difficult course, but it is fairly long and the fairways are rather narrow. The Spartans have never succeeded in defeating a Michigan golf team. In the opening meet of the season last spring Chuck Kocsis led his mates to an 18-0 victory over State with a 73 to take medal honors for the day. The Spartans have already dropped several ,meets this year and indica- tions are that they will not furnish serious competition unless several of their sophomores display a good deal of ability. Each individual match will involve three points. One to the winner of the first nine, one to the winner of the second nine, and one point to the winner of the match. Thus 24 points will be involved in the individual matches and six in the best ball four- somes, making a total of 30 points. The Michigan team wilt consist of Johnny Fischer, Chuck Kocsis, Woody Malloy, Captain Cal Markham, Dana Seeley, Larry David, Carrol Sweet, and Allan Saunders. The squad will arrive in East Lan- sing in time for lunch at 11 a.m. Play will commence at noon and the team should arrive' in Ann Arbor by 6 p.m. COLLEGE BASEBALL Illinois 4, Wisconsin 0.

ANDROS1 With the past swimming season yet7 barely faded into the past, Coach Matt Mann has already made the predic-l tion that his 1936 team "is a sure bett to repeat as Big Ten champions, andi may come through again in the Na- tional Collegiates."+ Early this season Coach Mann char- acterized his proteges as the "great- est swimming team ever assembled; under one roof," and they bore him out by winning overwhelming vic- tories in the Western Conference and] National Collegiate meets, Ythe two hardest tests in the intercollegiate! swimming world.' Win Dual Meets Easily The Wolverines swept through dual meets with victories over Michigan 1 State, Indiana, Iowa, Ohio State, Northwestern, and the Ontario All- Stars, champions of the British Em- pire, without effort. The Buckeyes provided the most opposition, coming within 20 points of Michigan's total score. The Conference meet saw Michigan way out ahead of Illinois, Ohio State, and Iowa by virtue of a new scoring record of 59 points. Co-Captain Tay- lor Drysdale won the back-stroke for the third time, breaking his own record; Sophomore Jack Kasley broke the 200-yard breast-stroke mark; the medley trio of Drysdale, Kasley and Ogden Dalrymple set up a new stand- ard in the 300-yard event; -and Tex Robertson came into his own with victories in the 220- and 440-yard free-style races, the latter in record time. It was in the National Collegiate Bet' For 1936 Title, Says Mann meet at Harvard that the Wolverines: really asserted their superiority in college swimming circles. Coach Mann's Varsity tankmen took eightj out of the 11 possible first places, fail- ing to win only in the individual free- style events, where Jack Medica and Chuck Flachmann divided the hon- ors. The total of 49 points submerged Yale and Washington, who tied for second with 15 counters. Drysdale also earned his third title in this meet; Frank Fehsenfeld camet through with wins in the high and low-board diving events as Ned Dief-r endorf, Ben Grady, and Der Johnston followed behind him to give Michigan1 the almost incredible total of eight out1 of 11 places in the spring-board. events. Trackmen To Run Today For Prep Coaches, Michigan's Varsity track team will make its first outdoor appearance at home tomorrow in an exhibition be- fore high school track coaches of the Istate on Ferry Field. The exhibition will begin at 2 p.m. A medley relay between two teams picked from the squad will feature the demonstration event with four men running, one at 150 yards, two at 220 yards, and one at 660 yards. Willis Ward, Fred Stiles, Tony Serakos, and Clayton Brelsford running in that order will meet Sam Stoller, Harvey Patton, Stan Birleson and Howard Davidson. Other events will include the high jump, pole vault, high hurdles, and broad jump. A demonstration of starting and sprinting will also be in-. eluded. Willis Ward, who scored 17 points for Michigan as the Wolverines opened the outdoor season last week against the University of California, will work in four of the five events besides the relay.

MORRILL 314 South State Street Gridders Will Scrimmage In Stadium To'day Kipke, Influenza Gone, To Direct First Of Three Weekly Games With Coach Harry Kipke's return to his job after a bout with influ- enza, the football squad yesterday was sent through a stiff practice, with concentration on kickoffs, tackling and, in the last half of the session, on plays for the practice game that will be played at 2 p.m. today in the Sta- dium. Coach Kipke announced this prob- able first-team line-up yesterday afternoon: Captain Renner will start at quarterback, Everhardus and Smithers at halves, Sweet at fullback. Gesquiere and Valpey at ends, Kra- mer and Schraeder at tackles, Mar- zoni and Pederson at guards, and Harry Wright at center. The oppos- ing team will be picked from the re-, maining players but definite choices have not been decided on as yet. Bill Renner, who has been taking it easy for the past couple of weeks with a bad shoulder, is in shape again. Cedric Sweet, who is starting at full, has only been out for practice the last week because of injury to his knee that he suffered during last season. Other than these, with the exception of Dutkowski, a promising looking freshman who chipped the bone of his leg, the injuries to the squad have been comparatively slight. Today's scrimmage game is the first one of the year, but from now until May 4 there will be one played every Saturday in the Stadium. This will give three games in which to iron out the team's defects. -Associated Press Photo. A top-notch performer in five track and field events, Francis Cretz- meyer, Unversity of Iowa athlete, is expected to be one of the Hawkeyes' biggest point-getters this year. His hurdling form is notable, the way he leans forward in the above picture being outstanding. Major League Standings l AMERICAN LEAGUE W L Pct.
