FRIDAY, MAY 22, 1930 THE MICHIGAN DAILY 3i - - Netters Tie For Third In First. Round Of Meet Flick And Sherwood Score Victories In Singles As Team Also Wins Doubles CHICAGO, May 21. - (P)-- By scoring two victories in both the singles and doubles matches, Michi- gan 's Varsity net team tied Wiscon- sin for third place in the first round of the Western Conference tennis meet with a total of four points. Jesse Flick and Miller Sherwood figured in both victories to lead the Michigan team. Flick defeated Joe Kovac, of Wisconsin, 1-6, 6-1, 6-4 in the singles ,and paired with John Rodriguez to defeat Richardson and Kovac, of Wisconsin, 6-4, 6-2 in the doubles. Sherwood Wins Singles Sherwood was the only other Mich- igan man to win in the singles. Sher- wood turned back Charley Huntley, of Minnesota, 6-2, 3-6, 6-3. He also teamed with Howard Kahn to defeat Wilcox and Brain, of Minnesota, 6-4, 6-4, in the doubles. The University of Chicago tennis team, defending titlists, alone re- mained unbeaten as the first round of the Western Conference net tourna- ment closed on the Midway courts to- day. The tournament ends tomorrow. Robert Niehouson of Ohio State, given little consideration as a possible singles championship winner, sup- plied the fireworks which jolted Northwestern's hopes of pressing the Maroons for the team title. Niehousen, playing heady tennis from the start, came from behind to eliminate Rus- sell Ball, Northwestern star, 2-6, 6-4, 6-3. Bickel Advances Ball had been a heavy favorite to meet Norman Gickel of Chicago in the finals of the championship brack- et. Bickel advanced to the second round by a 6-1, 7-5 victory over Joe Moll, Illinois captain. In doubles competition, the Ma- roor's showed as much strength as in the singles class where they picked up a point in each of the four brack- ets. Norbert Burgess and Bickel de- feated Moll and Bruce Hicks, 6-3, 6-1, in a first bracket match, while in a second bracket tilt, Herbert Mertz and John Shostrom, Chicago, defeated Richard Lewers and Wil- liam Rich, Illinois, 6-2, 6-4. The point standings: Chicago 6 Northwestern 5 Wisconsin 4 Michigan 4 Illinois 2 Iowa 2 Ohio State 1 Minnesota 0. Nine Will Meet Wildcats Today On Road Trip Seek Eighth Conferencej Victory; Herm Fishman' Faces Wildcats EVANSTON, May 21. -The Uni- versity of Michigan baseball team moved in here today seeking their eighth Conference win over North- western's weak-hitting nine. H'erm Fishman, Wolverine left- hander, will be one starting pitcher while Floyd Stromme will probably be on the mound for the Wildcats.t Coach Burt Ingwersen is pinning his hopes for a victory on Shortstop Mer- rill, who has been absent from thel lineup for the last four Conference titls suffering from a sprained ankle. Wildcats Lose Nine Inability to hit and an erratic de-l fense have been chiefly responsible for the Wildcats record of nine Big Ten defeats and with no marks on the credit side of the column. Coach Ray Fisher, although appre- ciating the Northwestern spirit, as ex- emplified by Coach Ingwersen's "We haven't given up yet," is pointing his squad for the Wisconsin tilt on Satur- day. Captain Berger Larson will pitch and will be opposed by either "Deacon" Pearson or Gordy O'Brien, who lost a close 3 to 2 decision in an earlier appearance against the Wolverines in Ann Arbor. Seek Two Wins With seven Big Ten wins to date, the Michigan nine hopes to clinch its first place position by wins over both Northwestern and Wisconsin while Iowa and Minnesota are battling it out in three games this week-end at Iowa City. Iliinois, the only other team in the running, finished its sea- son with a win over Chicago yester- day to achieve a record of ten games won and two lost. The Hawkeyes and the Gophers have each lost only one game, as has Michigan. The Wildcat nine was decisively beaten in two encounters with Minne- sota last week-end by scores of 6 to 0 and 12 to 5. FORMER STAR SPRINTER Lawson Robertson, present United Cfn fac. finnni,, and Pflnnc'rl,,nin - he PRESS ' ANGLE By GEORGE J. ANDROS o Phil Diamond. .. IT IS a sport columnists privilege - or fate --to predict the outcome of all kinds of athletic events. But when it comes to calling the turn in the Big Ten track meet we gladly - and relievedly - take a back seat to Phil Diamond. of the German depart- ment, whose annual dope sheet is so accurate it is respected as authority all over the middle-west. This year Diamond is sticking his neck out to the extent of picking Michigan to win by four points, and admits freely that he has never been less certain in his experience. Indiana, Ohio and Wisconsin are all capable of upsetting the dope very easily. Diamond gives the Wolverines the edge on team strength, handing them 45 points and only three first places. Ohio is second with 41 points, followed by Indiana with 34 and Wisconsin with 31. Illinois has 25, Iowa 17, Northwestern and Chicago 11 each, Minnesota 8 and Purdue only a ques- tion mark. The predictions by events follow: Mile Run: Don Lash, Indiana's defending champion, well ahead of Ohio's George O'Brien. Clayt Bresford of Michigan third, fol- lowed by Tom Deckard of Indiana and Chuck Fenske of Wisconsin. Ray Fink of Michigan and In- diana's Jim Smith are dark horses. 100-yard dash: Jesse Owens of Ohio a step in front of Michigan's Sam Stoller. Grieve of Illinois, Collier of Indiana and Dooley of Iowa in that order behind the leaders. Janicki of Wisconsin an outsider. 440-yard run: Ray Ellinwood, sen- sational Chicago sophomore, to nose out Michigan's Stan Birleson. Harvey Patton of Michigan ust ahead of Northwestern's . Winslow Heg and Gene Skinner of Iowa fifth. Ohio's Beethem an outsider if he doubles, with defending champion Carol Crowell of Wisconsin out of it. 120-yard high hurdles: Bob Osgood of Michigan a stride bet- ter than Indiana's Dan Calde- meyer. Wright of Illinois, Cretz- mayer of Iowa and Robinson of Illinois in that order. Two-mile run: Lash and Deckard of Indiana first and second, but their teammate Smith behind Walt Stone and Bill Staehle of Michigan. 880-yard run: Charlie Beethem of Ohio State an easy winner for the second year. Bernard Gill of Indiana and Jack Fleming of Northwestern following, with Ben Starr of Michi- gan and Duke Hobbs of Indiana fight- ing it out for fourth and fifth. Capt. Frank Aikens and Howie Davidson of Michigan, Glenndenning of Purdue and O'Brien of Ohio if he runs are the dark horses. 220-yard dash: The same field as in the 100 in the same order, except for Stoller, whose place behind Owens will be taken by Ellinwood if he runs. 220-yard low hurdles: Owens again, trailed by Wright a'nd Brunton of Illinois, and then Cretzmayer and Osgood. One-mile relay: Michigan the winner, and Northwestern, Wis- consin, Indiana and Chicago bat- tling for the remaining places. Shot put: Rubow of Wisconsin a little bit ahead of the field. Not much to choose among Freimuth (Minn.), Jake Townsend (Mich.), Krezowski (Minn.), and DeHeer (Iowa). Dark horses here are Christensen of Wis- consin and Indiana's Schneidermann. Discuss: Defending champion Skip Etchells of Michigan in a class by himself.

Thompson, Chicago pro living up to his play here last year, carded five birdies to tie for medal honors with Kocsis, who had four birdies to his ! credit. Both men had a 71, one un- der perfect figures, while Smith and Little posted cards of 73. Crucial Shot The match was decided on the sev- enteenth green when Kocsis had a 15 foot putt to make for a birdie three. His partner had holed out in five and Little and Thompson took par fours. The Michigan captain's putt was missed only by two inches as the ball rolled beyond the cup about five feet, and he was forced to take a five before he finished. Missing two eagles on heartbreak- ingly long putts that rimmed the cup, once on the par four thirteenth hole and again on the par five eighteenth, Thompson was easily the outstanding player of the day. His chance for an eagle on the thirteenth was made pos- t sible by a 325-yard drive to the green, the longest of the day. Barely missing a 20-foot putt on the 1 ninth, Kicsis lost a chance to make a birdie and even up the match at the end of the first nine holes after he had made two brilliant three's on the sixth and seventh holes and a par three on the eighth to pick up two holes on the opposition.

Wilbur Shaw (left) of Indianapolis and Phil "Red" Shafer (right) are among the famous drivers of the nation entered in the annual 500- mile auto race to be run Decoration Day at Indianapolis. Forty-five drivers from all over the country have entered the $110,000 race, but time trials, which have already begun, will cut the entries to about 33. Shaw has already qualified and is expected to be among the heavy favorites to win the classic. Old records are expected to be imperiled this year due to track improvements that have recently been made and which will undoubtedly aid the drivers.

During the week of May 15 two such performances were turned in, one by Zit Tessmer of Sigma Nu and another by Fred Prieskorn of the Bluebirds. In the Phi Kappa-Phi Epsilon Pi softball game in '35, Phi Kappa set a. new record for runs scored in one-hall inning when it put across 17 tallies ir the first half of the third. The Phi Eps came back with 11 in the last half of the same stanza for a total of 28 runs Butler Pitches No-hit Game-; N ift Phys._Ms. Win With only one man reaching first base, and that one by virtue of an infield error, the Physical Eds., be- hind the no-hit pitching of Dwight Butler, defeated the Wolverines by a 5-0 score yesterday, and thus entered the finals of the independent-'division of the intramural baseball tourney. Of the nineteen men who faced Butler in the six innings, fifteen went down by the strikeout route, four popped up to the infield, and one man reached first when the second baseman muffed a grounder. The Wolverines had only one bad inning, but that was bad enough to force them to come out on the small end of the score. Three hits ,three errors, and a fielder's choice gave the winners their five runs in the fourth inning. Marv Arent, the losing pitcher, gave up one other hit, that in the sixth, walked one man, and struck out nine, seven of them in a row. I i . f i t f I J 1 l I\ f 1 f r i Little, getting off to a bad start when he drove his second shot out o1 bounds and took a three-putt green for a seven on the first hole, displayed real accuracy when he missed a hole- in-one on the 175-yard fourteenth hole by three inchts. The tee shot arced perfectly in the air and dropped directly in front of the cup, bounding about seven feet beyond. He wasn't on the fairway until the fourth hole but secured a birdie four on the third and a par five on the second. Horton Smith, showing his usual well-balanced game, also joined the rest of the players in missing his share of long putts that looked sure to be sunk. ~Major Leagues American Detroit 10, New York 9.
