National Meet' To Be Held June 24 Is On Relay Team Select Boyd Allen To Be New Track Manager For Next Season Frank Aikens, a junior from Sioux Falls, S. D., was named yesterday to lead the 1936 Michigan track team by letter winners of the championship 1935 squad. Aikens will succeed Harvey Smith, of Lakewood, 0., who led the Wol- verines to a complete sweep of Big Ten track for the year, climaxed by a thrilling victory in the Conference outdoor meet here Saturday. The captain-elect, who transferred to Michigan last year, is a middle- distance star who rose to his best performance. of the year in placing fifth in the Conference half-mile and running on the record-smashing mile relay team. Originally entered in the quarter-mile event, Aikens was trans- ferred to the half-mile and steadily cut his time down to a best perform- ance of about 1:55, a performance which qualified him for the National Collegiate meet to be held June 24 at Berkeley, Calif. Aikens next year will lead a Mich- igan squad which is expected to re- peat the showing of the 1935 'squad which won both indoor and outdoor team titles inConference meets. Al- though the squad will lose Willis Ward, one of the nation's outstanding track stars and the main-stay of Wol- verine teams for three years, Captain Smith, the best miler in the history of Michigan and one of the out- standing half-milers, Konrad Moisio, who established a reputation in three years of Varsity competition as a "money performer," and Bob Kosit- chek, who placed third in the Big Ten javelin event, a host of promis- ing freshmen will bolster next year's team. Boyd Allen, of Milwaukee, Wis., was also named Varsity track manager for 1936, it was announced by Wil- liam Morgan, retiring manager. As- sistant managers named include Syd Stiegel, Chicago, Harrison Church, Elkhart, Ind., Morton Mann, New, York City, and Ed Perkins, Battle Creek. No alternate manager was named. Oosterbaan's Signature Proves Handy In Pinch Bennie Oosterbaan knows the value of a name, at least a famous name - like his. Having lost their dog last week, the Oosterbaans appealed to the youth of the neighborhood to or- ganize a search to bring about his return. Some time after the ap- peal a group of youngsters came to the door with the lost puppy. "How much do you want?" Mrs. Oosterbaan asked the leader. "Oh, nothing," was the answer, "unless Mr. Oosterbaan would give us his autograph." Fraternity I-M Title Goes To Alpha Omega Piles Up 1007 Points To Annex Championship In Two Divisions Alpha Omega dental fraternity has been awarded the fraternity sports championship of the Intramural de- partment. In winning the champion- ship it accumulated a total of 1,007 points, greater than any scored by any team in either the professional fra- ternity division or the general fra- ternity class, thus automatically mak- ing it champion of both divisions. This feat has never been accom- plished by any fraternity entry in all the twenty-one years of the con- test's existence. The men who have accomplished the most in placing Alpha Omega at the top of the fraternity heap are Louis Gans, Murray Koorhan, Her- bert Lebowitz, Milton Kamber, Sam Stone, Sidney Klahr, Sam Stolberg, Frank Greenbaum, and Joe Stein. Alpha Omega's outstanding piece of work of the year was its winning the championship of the Class A fra- ternity basketball tournament. Last year Alpha Omega had to be content with seventh place in the fraternity team standing but this year it could not be stopped until it had piled up its grand total of 1,007 points in eighteen events. Pi Lambda Phi placed second with a team total of 944 picked up in 16 events. Third place goes to Psi Upsilon, who gath- ered 943 points in 13 events.

Championship Golf Team Will Defend National Title June 241 By LESTER BRAUSER Coach Ray Fisher of the Varsity baseball team has expressed the opin- ion that this year's freshman base- ball team was the best fielding out- fit that he has seen in the past sev- eral years. He almost went so far as to say that it was the greatest fresh- man fielding team he has ever seen. Fisher said that he did not feel that the hitting of the yearlings in the practice sessions that he hadf watched was anything spectacular but he did have hopes that it would im- prove. He excused the poor hitting on the grounds that the weather this spring had probably prevented the first year men from getting enough practice at the bat. Urieek Looks Good He admits that several of the men on the freshman squad are going to be mighty welcome to him next year. He is particularly enthusednover the play of Steve Uricek, Flint third base candidate who he believes will fit in nicely at third base next year, re- placing George Ford. Ford will be lost to the team by graduation. The pitchers, Coach Fisher thinks, are promising potentialities, who will give some of this year's Varsity hurlers a battle for regular mound duty next year. Some of the most likely pitch- ing candidates are Lefty Kremer, who comes from Conneaut, Ohio, Burt Smith and Herman Fishman of De- troit, and Lefty Harnden, Saginaw boy. These four men in particular caused the Varsity some trouble in hitting their curves and fast balls in the several practice games played this spring. The infield will present Fisher with a problem next year. The reg- ular infield this year all graduate and it will be up to the freshman in- fielders and the members of this year's reserve squad to patch it up again. The freshmen have several good men to offer Fisher besides Uri- cek at third. Good Infield Seen There will be Don Brewer who, if he continues fielding as he has been this spring, will be a formidable man with whom those who are after the shortstop position will have to ,contend. At second base Stark Rit- chie looks good enough to step in and take over Clayt Paulson's position, Then at first the freshmen have a tall, -rangy Detroit boy who has been stopping all throws that the fresh- man infielders havesbeen aiming at him this year. He is Bill Lane and his height may place him on first base for the Varsity next year. It is no doubt felt by the majority of Michigan's baseball followers that the hitting has been weak this year and the fact that the freshmen have, shown no power at the bat this spring will not be very encouraging to them. However, Fisher, somewhat assured of his fielding strength next year, will no doubt stress hitting practice much more next spring with the freshmen expected to accomplish the most in the hitting department as a result of the emphasis on this phase of the game. I-M Sports Officials announced yesterday that the Intramural Building will be open tomorrow, Memorial Day, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. The pool will only be open from 3 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. in the after- noon. SHORT STOPS LEAD Shortstops ordinarily are not lead- ing hitters, but the runs-batted-in leadership in the National League for 4.,, Baseball Game With Spartans Is Postponed Intermittent showers yesterday culminating in a burst of rain shortly after 4 i.m. washed out Michigan's last home baseball game of the year. Michigan State was to have been played. Whether the game will be played together with the regularly sched- uled contest with the Spartans nexttThursday at East Lansing is yet to be decided. If there is a double header, Coach Ray Fisher indicated that Art Patchin and Berger Larson would pitch for the Wolverines. Which of these two would hurl if only one game is played, Fisher does not yet know. the first month of play was shared by two shortstops, Arky Vaughan of the Pirates and Lonny Frey of the Dodg- ers, with 23 each.

CLARK English Boot Maker 534-536 Forest Avenue Tigers Batter Yank Pitchers To Defeat, 8-3 The Detroit Tigers let loose with a mighty batting attack, including two home runs apiece collected by Hank Greenberg and Billy Rogefl, to batter the New York Yanks to defeat, 8-3, yesterday in the Yankee Stadium in New York. Greenberg's two homers placed him in a tie for the home-run leadership of the American League. Lefty Gomez lasted eight innings on the mound for the Yanks, with the Tigers collecting 10 hits off him. Two hits off Murphy who replaced Gomez in the ninth were good for two runs in the final frame to complete the day's scoring. Crowder hurled for Detroit, granting only four hits throughout the afternoon. The St. Louis Browns defeated the Boston Red Sox, 6-5, yesterday at Fenway Park in Boston. The Horns- bymen pounded out 15 hits off the combined efforts of Lefty Grove and Wes Ferrell, Red Sox aces. National League1 Pittsburgh 3, Philadelphia 1. Cincinnati 13, Boston 4.
