Five of the games will be here. Coach Fisher will stick to his orig- inal plan of using John Gee and Herm Fishman against Normal today, as- suming that the game can be played between showers. Tomorrow when the scene of battle is shifted from the Ypsilanti diamond to Ferry Field the Hurons will probably be opposed by a pair of Wolverine right handers, Ed Andronik and Pete Lahti. After Eighth Win The Wolverines will still be after, their eighth win of the year when they go up against, the Hurons this after- rioon and should be able to add it to their record without trouble. An- dronik has pitched in two games this year, the, first against Roanoke and then in the Maryland slugfest. Lahti has not yet appeared in the Mich- igan lineup, but Fisher expects the sophomore to turn in a good perform- ance when he does work. Star Distance Man For the rest of the team, the two starts against Normal will be good drills in preparation for Saturday's classic with Illinois when Michigan's stock will either soar or take a de- cided drop, depending upon the out- come of this all-important affair. The Illini added another win over Northwestern Tuesday, their sixth Conference victory in six starts. Illini Tilt Is Real Test As the result of their terrific pace the Illini are strong favorites to take at least a share of the 1936 Big Ten crown. Michigan fans will find out Saturday whether Wally Roettger's club is really on the road to the title, or whether Ray Fisher's aggregation is the team to be reck- oned with in the race for the crown. Next Tuesday the Wolverines will travel to Hillsdale to meet a strong college club there. The two south- paws on the Big Three of the mound staff, Gee and Fishman, will divide that, game between them as both will be expected to work a full game the following week-end. May 8, Ohio State will oppose Mich- igan on Ferry Field in the first of a three-game series. Ronnie Peters will probably be the Buckeye pitcher with Berger Larson throwing them for the Wolverines. May 9 will be bargain day for the fans for a double- header is scheduled that afternoon. The Ohio pitchers for that day will, not be known until next week, but, it will undoubtedly be Gee and Fish- man twirling for Michigan. Get Plenty of Work With games coming as fast as they are during the next week the Fisher charges will get a chance to sharpen their hitting eyes against good hur- ling. At the same time his mounds- men will get some much-needed work. Headed by Capt. Larson, the Big Three of the hurling corps so far have accounted for all seven Michigan wins. Larson has taken three out of four and Gee and Fishman two games each. All appear adept at throwing the ball past the opposing hitters, for together they have chalked up 64 strikeouts in 64 innings on the hill. They have also restricted the foe to but 40 hits in that time. On the basis of these facts it can be judged that no team the Wolverines meet will have an easy time in winning.; Kipke Sends Team Thiro ugh Long Drill In preparation for the scrimmage scheduled for tomorrow afternoon in the stadium, Coach Harry Kipke sent his charges through a two-hour of- fensive drill yesterday. Most of the time was spent in working out a new set of running plays. Stark Ritchie broke through the defensive eleven several times for long gains behind the excellent blocking of his mates, as did Ed Phillips, Cra- mon Stanton and Bob Curran.

Last Saturday at the Drake Relays he set a new American record of 9:10 for the two mile run. Lash is considered as an outstanding pros- pect for the 1,500 meter run i'n the Olympic meet this summer. Frosh Golfers Start Matches For Numerals The first of weekly 18-hole medal play matches to be held during thef month of May to determine the win- ners of freshmen golf numerals will be staged Saturday morning over the University Golf Course. Two foursomes have already been organized from this week's freshman squad of eight men and will tee off at 8:30 and 8:40 a.m. Saturday. The first foursome is composed of Novak, McCarren, Yearnd and Kreu- ger. The second quartet is made up of Zimmerman, Hoagland, Griffin and Evans. Other freshmen scholastically eli- gible who wish to try for places on the squad and also men who entered the University as upper-class trans- fer students and who are not yet eli- gible for Varsity competition will be set off in foursomes after numbers one and two. The first two foursomes of each week will be made up of the eight- man squad of that week which has free playing privileges. The squad changes each week in accordance with attested scores for three 18-hole rounds played during the week andl reported to the club house.I Hoyt Selects 30-Man Squad For Ohio Meet Wolverines Face Real Test In Season's Opener Held At Columbus Coach Charlie Hoyt yesterday named a track squad of 30 men to make the trip to Columbus Friday where the Wolverines will pick up the rivalry started in the Penn Relays last week when the Buckeyes play host to Michigan in the opening dual meet of the outdoor season. Naming Saturday's encounter with Michigan as the biggest test in the path of their drive towards 1936 Con- ference honors, the Bucks are primed to turn in their best efforts Saturday for Coach Larry Snyder. Jesse Owens, who returned to out- door competition at Philadelphia last Saturday with firsts in the 100 meter dash and broad jump in addition to running on the victorious Ohio State sprint relay team, and Charlie Beet- ham, brilliant half miler, will lead the Scarlet in their tangle with the Maize and Blue. Minimize Michigan Record Maintaining that "the Wolverines were forced to take a back seat be- cause of the overshadowing per- formance of The Scarlet and Texans," The Ohio State Lantern tends to min- imize Michigan's remarkable Penn Relay record which was so acclaimed in the East. The meet has been doped by local track experts as one of the closest of the season. The outcome appears to hinge upon three events-the quarter, the half and the javelin. After Charlie Beetham's brilliant race at Penn Saturday when he made up 20 yards on his leg to overtake Michigan and Manhattan and win the two-mile relay crown for Ohio, he is considered a surety in the half. Should Coach Snyder gamble on a double win, he might enter Beetham in the quarter against Stan Birleson and take a chance on his star still having enough left to take the half too. Owens is conceded firsts in the 100, 220, and broad jump, although he beat Stoller by only 3/4ofhan inch last week in the latter event. Whether or not the Wonder Man will be en- tered in the low hurdles is still a matter of conjecture. Relays Omitted There will, of course, be no relays run Saturday and thus the fans will be deprived of seeing the two schools which have the outstanding quartets of the country perform against each other until the Conference meet three weeks later. The Buckeyes annexed the sprint relay as well as the two mile at the Penn Carnival while the Wolverines were walking off with the one and four mile crowns. The Michigan men named to make the trip include: Sam Stoller, Har- vey Patton, Fred Stiles, Steve Ma- son, Frank Aikens, Stan Birleson, Howie Davidson, Benn Starr, Ray Fink, Clayt Brelsford, Harry O'Con- nell, Bill Staehle, Walter Stone, Bob Osgood, Jack Uhl, Moreau Hunt, Skip Etchells, Mike Savage, Leonard Dworsky, Johnny Townsend, San White, Nelson Droullard, Bob Pekels- ma, Paul Gorman, Harold Robinson, Paul Pinkerton, Charles Morgan, Bud Martin and Tom Fisher.

At that time, however, "Appleton" was not known, but instead it was Pete Jablonowski who was hurling for the Wolverines. Pete changed his name when he entered professional baseball and the complications com- ing as a result reached a climax last summer while he was making a good record as a Montreal moundsman in the International league. Sounded O.K. To Navin The late Frank J. Navin, formerly owner of the Detroit ball club, had received glowing reports from the Canadian city on this star pitcher, Appleton. Feeling that the Bengals could easily use another right-handed fast ball hurler, he sent scout Wish Egan to Montreal to look the new prospect over. Watching Appleton from the stands, Egan thought he recognized the delivery of the thrower - which is freakish to say the least - and fi- nally realized that it was none other than Pete Jablonowski whom he had scouted several years before in Ann Arbor. Egan left, convinced that Pete could not make the grade in the big show even though his minor league record during the season was a good one. This spring Appleton was in camp with the Senators and from the first game he pitched he has consistently done well for Bucky Harris. Yester- day's accomplishment in so decisively whipping Detroit, 7-3, was without doubt the outstanding game he has pitched since leaving school. Delivery Is Deceptive His delivery is probably the most deceptive in the major leagues, as he conceals the ball in his glove while winding up and then drops it to his pitching hand just before throwing it toward the batter. The first time Rogers Hornsby saw Appleton pitch he claimed the delivery was illegal, but the umpires ruled otherwise. This is the fourth time that Ap- pleton has had a trial with a major league team and has started better this year than in any of his previous attempts. So far he has won three games and has yet to be beaten. He was a letter winner here in 1925, '26, and '27, playing on third base while not pitching. Coach Ray Fisher, who taught Pete a lot that he knows about the game, expressed an opinion last night that his former pupil would go a long way in th4 sport if his 1936 start means any- thing. Pete, however, has spent eight years as a minor leaguer and is no youngster as ball players go.

"It's a tough break for us," said Manager Mickey Cochrane of the Tigers. "Hank will likely be out for at least a month and probably more."
