WEDNESDAY, MARCH 25, 1936 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Outfielders Get First Outdoor 1 z 1 Owner, Manager Watch Yankees Perform Drill Of Year1 Fisher Still Undecided As To Make-Up Of Infield; Squad Is Cut TO 29 Candidates for the outfield berths on Michigan's 1936 baseball team drilled on Ferry Field yesterday for the first time this year, while in Yost Field House Coach Fisher sent the rest of the squad through a stiff bunt- ing and hitting practice. Indications are that the entire squad will be outside by the end of the week. Fisher has made the final cut, reducing the squad to 29, 16 of whom will be selected to make the annual spring southern trip. Ten pitchers are listed on the roster and Fisher is hoping that he finds some good relief men among them. He has stated that Capt. Ber- ger Larson is already in good enough shape now to start a ball game and as a result Berger is tapering off his work to be in excellent trim when the spring trek starts. John Gee is still slated as the second mounds- man but with 10 games facing the squad during spring vacation one other starter is needed. Until he takes the men onto the diamond outside, Fisher will not be able to state what men will hold down the infield jobs, but at present it looks as though at least two off the positions are decided upon. Steve Uricek, outstanding man of last year's freshman team, seems slat-r ed for the shortstop while Carl Fern- er is apt to be on third. Fisher is having trouble in finding a second1 baseman. Either Matt Patanelli or Joe Lerner is expected to be on first., Improvement in hitting by Ferner and Patanelli over their form of a year ago will play a large part in getting these two into the lineup. j Yesterday Fisher worked on bunt-, ing for the first time. Lerner, Lar- son and Jablonski all showed ability in laying them down but John Gee, doing the throwing, didn't have much trouble in picking men off the first sack. In this drill Vic Heyligerf caught while Patanelli was on first and Don Brewer played second. Annual Sore Arm Jinx Menaces Two Michigan Hurlers By IRVIN LISAGOR Some wise old baseball manager once observed that, "a pitcher can't] achieve true greatness until he has ex- perienced a sore arm." He meant, too that many pitchers use only their' arms and not enough of their brains, until a damaged flipper teaches themI to conserve that whip as much as; possible by mixing them up. At any rate, if the maxim holds water as far as the Wolverines are concerned, Coach Ray Fisher might well boast a couple of potential "greats" on his present flinging corps. The two hurlers in question are Art "Lefty" Settle and Pete Lahti, a right-hander, both of whom pos- sessed attributes of stars until some- thing went wrong with their arms. Arm Goes Lamel Settle had plenty o zip on his fast one when he shoveled them off the1 knoll as a freshman, and he gave every indication of developing into a valuable man. In high school, and on Chicago Sandlots, the southpaw wrong-sided them down the alley with considerable success. But lacking1 mound "brains," Lefty threw a fast1 one, then came back with a faster one. During his sophomore season, his throwing arm finally went lame. Something had snapped in the middle deltoid muscle of his upper arm, and although Coach Fisher admitted it was a strange condition, Settle was unable to bear down without pain, and his fire ball was as big as a pumpkin. The lameness persisted in his junior year. Increases His Speed This year Settle started working out early, increasing his speed gradually. He now reports that his arm feels better, although it is still weak from inactivity. If it comes around as Settle hopes it will, Coach Fisher's mound worries may be relieved by one. Lahti's condition is similar to the southpaw's. In Fitchburg, Mass., Pete dominated the amateur league with his smoke ball. He pitched hard and often, never caring about how much that brand of throwing took out tof his arm. Then, when he came to Michigan, his trusty wing balked. He winced every time he let a fast one fly. Lahti laid off for two years, and now is back in the fold, going cau- tiously about his chores and hoping that his arm has returned to nor- malcy. Both boys realize what the shrewd oldtimer said about sore arms. A pitcher can't throw hard one after hard one and expect his arm to do right by him. New York A.C. Downs Varsity Natators, 43-41 Kasley Sets New World's Mark In Breast Stroke; Fick Wins Two Events NEW YORK, March 24-(P)-Jack Kpsley of the University of Michigan broke the world's record for the 200- yard breast-stroke tonight in a dual meet with the New York A.C. The club swiminers won ie meet 43-41. Kasley, national collegiate and Big Ten champion, was clocked in 2:24.1, a second and a half under the listed world record, held by Jacques Car- tonnet of France, and more than a second faster than the unofficial1 mark of 2:25.2 made by Cartonnet last year. The Winged Foot team had one of! its closest calls in 1, years of rivalry as Michigan won five of the nine events. The club team, however, took second place in six events and counted heavily on capturing the 400-yard relay. Peter Fick scored a double for New York in the 50 and 220-yard free-style events while the veteran Walter Spence took the 100 and an- chored the victorious relay team. SUMMARIES Matt Mann Eyes Complications In Medica-Gilhula Tank Rivalry By GEORGE ANDROS The bitter rivalry between Jack Medica of Washington and Jimmy Gilhula of Southern California that has provided most of the fireworks in the last two National Collegiate swim- ming meets will be renewed this week- end in the 1936 championships at New Haven - but with complica- tions that will be watched very care- fully by Coach Matt Mann and Mich- igan's defending champions. The two Pacific Coast stars met in the 220 and 440 in 1934 and in the 1500-meter, the 220 and the 440 last year, with Medica winning each time I dent, was five-tenths of a second, also in new world record time. This year the rapid rise to national prominence via the stop-watch route of sophomore John Macionis of Yale is threatening to make the last meeting of Gilhula and Medica under college colors into a three-way affair. Macionis' showing with the United States team in Japan last summer and his time of 2:10.6 in the 220 this winter has made him a possibility to displace either of his two favored ivals from their accustomed one-two order in the 220 or 440. i.

This year's freshman squad is said to compare favorably with any that has ever come up at Michigan with the possible exception of the great '37 squad which included such stars as Stoller, Osgood, Stone, Birleson,. Brelsford, Hunt and Stiles. Figures show that could a meet be run be- tween the two teams as freshman, the '37 team would top the '39 crew by the smallest of margins. The "thirty- niners" led by "Big Bill" Watson would be stronger in the field events but would have to be content with second place in most of the running events. The Dohertymen downed the first year nen of Ohio State, Wisconsin, and Indiana by comfortable margins for an undefeated indoor season. The men who will receive awards are: Bill Watson, Roy Heath, Alan Smith, Bill Spitalny, Waldo Abbott, Jesse Stewart, Ross Faulkner, Harvey Clarke, Ralph Rosenberg, Bill Bu- chanan, Harold, Davidson, Frank Wilkinson, Don Duncan, Douglas Hayes, Don Siegal, Robert Gager, Jerry Friedenberg, Charles Clarke, Al Peterson, Phil Whittemore, Bob White, Bill Spicer, Don Beldon, Ed Kmet, Bill Newnan, John Olsen, Her- bert Hartens, Myron Wallace, Nick Kohan, James Clarke, Ernest Wass- mansdorf, Harold Wellel, Roland Wa- terfield. I-M Sports The All-Campus wrestling tourna- ment opened yesterday with forty- five entries, most of them members l of Coach Otto Kelly's freshman squad. Finals will be held today in the Intramural Building. The heavyweight match between Forrest Jordan and Bill Jurca prom- ises to be the day's feature. Both boys are freshmen. Danner and Hurd are to meet in the 175-pound final, while 165-pound laurels will go to the winner of the Shirley-Courtright match. Aye is one finalist in the 155- pound class, while his opponent has not yet been determined. Andrews, Nicholls, Drysdale, and Olding are the 145-pounders remaining. GOLF CLASS MEETS The regular Intramural golf class will be held Thursday eve- ning at 7 p.m. in the Intramural Building according to Coach Courtright.

Linkmen Michigan's Big Ten and National Collegiate championship golf team has scheduled the powerful Louisiana State squad for a dual meet to be iplayed over the University course May 8, Coach Ray Courtright announced yesterday. The Louisiana State quartet is a powerful crew that should provide Capt. Chuck Kcesis and his Varsity mates plenty of opposition. The star of the visitors is Fred Haas, runner- up for the individual Collegiate cham- pionship last year and winner of the Western Junior title. Haas is ably seconded by Paul Les- lie, southern intercollegiate champion, Wright Adams and Lawrence Lacarde. The Louisiana golfers will meet Michigan while on a tour of the midwest that will see them clash also with Notre Dame, Michigan State and the University of Detroit. While the Michigan lineup is still a matter of conjecture, it appears certain that Capt. Kocsis will be at number-one position and Woody Mal- y at number two. Al Saunders,Al Karpinski and Larry David are theI leading contenders for the remaining two starting posts. OUTDOOR GRID PRACTICE All football players, varsity and freshmen, report for first outdoor practice Wednesday afternoon at 4 p.m. at Ferry Field. Harry Kipke. giate world's three greatest free- stylers materialize. Coach Mann will be carefully watching the entry lists and any meetings between these stars for two reasons. First to see how many points Macionis will pick up for Yale, and second to determine whether or not Frank Barnard will swim in the 1500. If only Medica enters the long grind, Barnard will go in for second place and three points. But if Gilhula also at the last minute decides to try his luck once more in the 1500, the third Place points for Barnard will not be worth the effort. _ PFEFFERLE TO COACH Dick Pfefferle, Notre Dame tackle, has been named assistant coach at St. Benedict's College, Atchison, Kan., under Larry (Moon) Mullins.
