Capt. Chuck Kocsis and Alan Saunders were low medal men for the meet, both registering 72's for the distance. Par is 71. Kocsis and Woody Malloy led the Michigan team in points scored, neither losing a point during the entire day's play. A hard rain cut the meet short at 4 p.m. with the Wolverines far in front. Al Karpinski and Bill Barclay rounded out the Michigan team that met the Boilermakers and both added to the victors' point total. In the opening match Kocsis and Malloy won from Lockwood and Smith, 3-0. Completing the morning round Saunders and Karpinski defeated Dovelvower and David, 2% to 1/2. In the afternoon Kocsis turned in his near-par score to shut out his op- ponent 3 to 0. The Michigan captain was playing Pete Smith who shot a 77, and then Saunders tied Lockwood, 11/2 to 11/2. In the other two singles matches Karpinski defeated David, 2-1, and Bill Barclay tied Freese, 1-12. Frosh Diamond Squad Boasts Several Stars Peckinpaugh Heads List Of Prospective Varsity Baseball Material Sixty-seven men have reported to Benny Oosterbaan, freshman base- ball-coach, and among the group are several that should put up a good fight for positions on Ray Fisher's Varsity team next year, Wally Peckinpaugh, who came to Michigan with a reputation as a high- class athlete, and who has already won numerals in football and bas- ketball, heads the list of potential infielders. Wally is stationed at the hot corner of the diamond and handles chances like a veteran. He has a fast peg and has been hitting with regularity. Earl Smith, of Ann Arbor, appears to be about the best short-stop on the squad. Earl has been playing ball on local amateur teams for the past three years and exhibits fre- quent flashes of form that are al- most spectacular. Smitty covers the territory in back of second base ex- ceptionally well and can travel quite a distance to snag pop flies. He can also place hits better than the average freshman. Other infielders who have shown themselves to be of better than aver- age ability include Dick Long at first, Irvin Lisagor and Babson at second, with Pete Poulos as a promising utility man. Al DuBois and Gideon look to be about the brightest mound pros- pects, followed closely by Coon. Du- Bois has a snappy fast ball and a slow curve that are hard for a batter to keep his eye on. Gideon plays first base as well as pitching. Only two outfielders are above or- dinary, Bob Barber and Dworsky. Both can cover a lot of ground in patrolling the pastures and have good throwing arms.

Baba who the other night threw Dick Shi- kat, then recognized as the champior of the world in New York, Michigan Columbus, O., and Albuquerque, N. M Ali Baba now is in competition wit Dan Koloff, champion of the world ir Paris; Everett Marshall, world cham- pion by official decree of the Governo of Colorado; Dan O'Mahoney, wh has a legal claim to the title in Fitch- burg, Mass., because he was tricke into the loss of the crown March 2 when Shikat broke his contract b pinning the dead-panned Dutchman and Vincent Lopez, world champior of the Golden Gate and Los An- geles. In between these isolated geo- graphical positions are locally- reccgnized world champions in- cluding Ray Steele, who can probably take any of them in a match not directed by Jack Kur- Iey (nee Herman Schul) and his wrestling trust. The whole set-up but emphasize one point, professional wrestling claim to recognition as a sport rest on the same plane as the antics o the talented Marx brothers. Marx * LI BABA has a career which rival that of his famous namesake woh had dealings with the Fort Thieves, you remember. Two year ago in Oakland, Calif., Ai was Harr: Ekezian, an Armenial wrestler of sort who was having a tough time making his living. Not long ago Adam Weismuller, the Detroit promoter, wrote to a friend in Oakland asking that he send a Jap for appearance in Herr Weismuller's Michigan cir- cuit. Instead the friend sent along Ekezian, whose shaven head and long moustache appeale to the Detroiter. Ali got his big chance last week it an appearance against Shikat, wh had crossed O'Mahoney into cur rendering his crown, and whether Al crossed Mr. Shikat, or whether Mr Shikat surrendered his ill-gotten titl or whether Mr. Shikat just wasn' so hot, Ali Baba is now world's cham- pion around these parts, "much t the surprise of his friends in Oakland Calif," as the Associated Press reports who had evidently watched his wres- tling more than the beautiful mous- tache while he was on the coast. * * *+k PERHAPS some readers may get th impression that we do not con- sider wrestling a serious sporting con- test. That is right. But as an ex- hibition to compete with the brother Marx, that is different. Ali Baba really appeals to us, especially after talking with an inhabitant of the Detroit rooming house where Ali lives with sev- eral other members of Detroit Local Number 1, Professional Wrestlers of America. Ali, it seems, is a very sensitiv personality, playing the violin (be- tween his knees) with such ability that he wants a place on Majo Bowes' hour, because he can sing, too if he gets the gong for his violin play- ing. His home life is very serene, w understand, despite the violin and the f act that the janitor gives him a thorough dressing-down each weel for failing to change his linen. The latter doesn't bother him, you see for Ali sleeps on the floor. COLLEGE GOLF At Evanston, Ill.: Northwestern 13; Iowa 8. THE new EVER- SHARP pen can't j leak! It is the only Fishman, Gee Will Perform On The Mound Captain Larson Will Pitch' Against Wally Roettger's Visiting Illini Saturday z John Gee and Herm Fishman, the! two southpaw hurling stars on Michi- gan's title seeking baseball nine, will go after another win at 4 p.m. today when the Wolverines clash with Michigan Normal on the Ypsilanti diamond. Both of these men possess season records of two victories and no de- feats and will divide this afternoon's work between them, the one giving the best performance to be held in reserve Saturday when Capt. Berger Larson twirls against the visiting Illini of Wally Roettger. Gee will probably throw the first five innings today with the Detroit sophomore finishing the encounter. Seven Won; Three Lost To date the Wolverines have won seven games and lost three and by Saturday should have annexed two more wins. The Ypsilanti aggregation will face Michigan on Ferry Field Friday afternoon. It is expected that the highly vaunted Michigan offense, which didn't function against the Badgers' Gordon O'Brien, will click against the Hurons. The Michigan twirler who has the most trouble in dispos- ing with Ypsi today will face them again at the end of the week. Coach Fisher is spending most of his time this week in preparing the club for Saturday's all-important tilt with Illinois here. He sent the squad through a short intra-squad game yesterday which was cust short by rain. Aces To Meet It will be Berger La son against Hale Swanson when the Illini and Wolverines do meet, and the fans will be treated to the spectacle of two of the Big Ten's outstanding pitch- ers fighting it out on the hill. Illinois has won five straight Conference games and through the season has dropped but one start, that to Notre Dame, 5-4. In reserve the Illini will have another star thrower, Howie Berg, who will be called into action if Michigan starts belting Swanson's offerings. Larson's first start of the season be- fore local fans last Saturday was an auspicious one in that he disposed of 11 Badgers via the strike out route and yielded but six hits. The Michi- gan leader will depend on his sharp breaking curve ball, mixed with a half speeder and a good fast one, to give Illinois its first Conference de- feat. j nandingj Southpaws Who W ill Face Normal Coach Johnstone Well Pleased With Showing Of Court Tea m l 1 ,, f E, Michigan Normal's baseball team will get its fill of southpaw pitching this afternoon when it entertains the Michigan club on the college diamond in Ypsilanti. John Gee (left) and Herm Fishman are slated to divide the hurling duties for Coach Ray Fisher's nine with the elongated Gee probably getting the call to start the affair. So far this season both men have won two games and have received no setbacks. Michigan's Varsity netters returned and in both smashed out straight-set to Ann Arbor Sunday after the first victories.

The diminutive captain put up a whale of a battle before losing to Capt. Carl Fischer of the Hilltoppers, 5-7, 6-1, 6-1.

Victorious in the mile and four-mile relays, and in the steeplechase, the Wolverines had a banner week-end as each of the 15 men placed in his par- ticular event. The clash with the Buckeye track- men promises to be one of the closest meets of the outdoor season, and with Jesse Owens performing as he did on Franklin Field, Michigan may be hard pressed to eke out a win and maintain its string of consecutive wins. Coach Charlie Hoyt plans to run time trials today for the men who did not make the Penn trip, and upon these and trials later in the week, will select the squad for the Columbus trip. Captain Frank Aikens voiced the optimism of the squad when he pro- phesied that Michigan might beat the Bucks by as much as 20 points, but I deftificationf Cards Now Required At I-M On days when Varsity baseball games or track meets are s heduled to be played in Ferry Field students must show their identification cards in order to gain admission to the Intramural Sports Building, the I- M department announced yesterday.
