EDITOR'S NOTE: For the next few days, "Looking 'Em Over" will present descriptions of the teams that Mich- igan will face on its Southern trip. OHIO WESLEYAN Coach Ray Detrick, like Coach Fisher, has lost five regulars from his first year's Buckeye Conference champions. Art Thomas, the leading hurler in the' Ohio Conference, is back however and the Delaware ag- gregation will probably be favored to repeat as Buckeye champions. AVON= By GEORGE J. ANDR-- (Daily Sports Editor) AlBoxing Team.. .. THE FRESH AIR CAMP'S Boxing: Show to be held tonight in Yost Field House with its card of all- Michigan bouts brings up that oft- repeated question of "Why not a Var- sity Boxing team at Michigan?" The record .of University boxers in local and state amateur competition speaks well of the potentialities from which a Varsity aggregation could be developed. For a coach one would have to look no farther than Water- man Gym to Vern Larson, developer of an annual crop of good freshman boxers; or to the Intramural Build- ing to Martin Levandowski, one-time conqueror of Jimmy Braddock, or to Johnny Johnstone, former boxing in- structor in the British Navy. Mich- igan State, Toledo U. and Wisconsin would furnish plenty of opposition for a starter, and from there activ- ities could spread East to Syracuse, Duke, Navy and other powers in the collegiate boxing world, and to the annual National Intercollegiate tour- nament. One doesn't have to won- der much about how the students: would back the team. Boxing is like that. Smithers Is In. ... JOHN SMITHERS, blocking half- back and right-handed hurler cinched the present number-four spot behind Burt Smith, Herm Fish- man and John Gee on the Varsity mound staff this week. Kept out of baseball action last season by in- eligibility and threatened this spring by a bad knee developed in the Northwestern game last fall, John has been a doubtful quantity. Tues- day afternoon the Elkhart junior took his turn in the batting cage and showed his stuff before Coaches: Ray Fisher and Benny Oosterbaan. A curve ball that broke down and away in fine style had Matt Pat- anelli and Walt Peckinpaugh guess- ing, and when Merle Kremer "broke his back" on a half-speeder, Fisher grinned broadly and strode away. The Tackle Situation... AT THIS EARLY DATE it looks as though there were going to be plenty of power and effectiveness at the tackle positions on the 1937 Var- sity eleven. Fred Janke, badly in- jured against Minnesota last season, and sophomore Joe Savilla from the hills of West Virginia are bringing forth more than a few compliments from observers of spring drills, but that is only half the story. Battling 'with the books at present is Don Siegel, who finished tse 1936 season as number-one tackle, and a very effective one at that. Then there is "Butch" Jordan, still nursing a knee injured wrestling with Lehigh Uni- versity's heavyweight. The action "Butch" provided before he was re- moved from the Indiana game by in- juries augers very well for his fu- ture. And don't count out three double letter-winners in "Abe" Lin- coln, Erle Luby and Mel Kramer or sophomore Bill Smith. By the time Hunk gets through with these boys, they are going to be a darn good bunch of tackles to have around. PERRY WINS AGAIN Fred Perry won his third profes- sional tennis match from Bill Tilden last night at the Olympia in Detroit, triumphing by the score of 6-4, 6-4, 6-4. This match was the fourth. in a series of five, and clinched a victory for Perry in the series, as the score is now three matches to one in his favor. Bob Thalner (above) will battle with Don Cash tonight at Yost Field House in one of the featured bouts on the Fresh Air Camp Benefit Boxing Show. Both boys are outstanding boxers in the heavyweight division on Coach Vern Larson's yearling squad. They have shown a great deal of ability so far this year and the fight is expected to furnish fans with plenty of thrils. Thalner is from Flint and Cash is from Elmhurst, Ill.

'eet was.Kc' ou 01 me nignju Title With 67 Score By HERB LEV Phi Gamma Delta annexed the an- nual fraternity track championship last night at Yost Field House, with a total of 2012 points to 17 for its nearest competitor, Acacia. At the same time, the D.D.'s were crowned Independent champions, scoring an amazing total of 67 points in their division. Phi Delta Theta and Alpha Sigma Phi placed third and fourth among the fraternities, with 15 and 13 points respectively. The Wolverines gained the runner-up position in the Inde- pendent division with a total of 27, while the Blue Raiders' 25 points was good for third place. Leading the Phi Gams in their drive to the title was Elmer Gedeon, sophomore football and baseball star who took both hurdle races with ease, and was high-point man among the fraternity men with ten points. His teammate, Bob Holt aided materially with a second in the pole vault and third in the low hurdles. Buderus Is Second. Brooks Buderus, Chi Psi freshman, was second to Gedeon among the point scorers, along with Bob Cooper, football star of Phi Delta Theta, each counting nine markers. Buder- us captured the 50 yard dash in the extremely fast time of :06.4, and was second to Fred Schwarze of Phi Kap- pa Psi in the broad jump, while Cooper took the shot put with a heave of 38 feet, 6 inches, and fin- ished at Gedeon's heels in the low hurdles. Gene Kenaga, versatile Wolverine performer, led the Independent scor- ers with a similar 10-point total, taking the 440-yard dash, and finish- ing second in the low hurdles and fifth in the broad jump. Danny Smick, all around Varsity star, showed his ability in a fourth sport, when he scored nine points for the D.D.'s to take second individual hon- ors. Smick snared the pole vault with a leap of 11 feet, and took a second in the shot put. Reed Cracks Mark Probably the outstanding perform- ance of the evening was a six-foot one inch leap by Gene Reed, D.D. high jumper. Reed, a former Uni- versity of California varsity man broke all existing intramural rec- ords. Other notable performances were a 4:58.02 mile by Frank Hogan of Alpha Sigma Phi, and extremely fast half mile races' in both divisions. John Mair of the D.D.'s covered the distance in 2:08.4, while George Good of Acacia won the fraternity event in a time but two seconds, slower. Earl Smith of the Blue Raiders tooke the Independent 60-yard dash title nosing out Woodwin Ginsburg of the D.D.'s. BASEBALL SCORES i ball circles this season the threeF "S's" are likely to hold a kind of ter-F ror for young collegiate. batsmen, granting they develop as per schedule. The "S" boys are Burt Smith, Dan Smick and John Smithers, a trio ofb right-handers who purvey an assort-9 ment of orthodox slants. Each of the flingers has had a little experience either in high school or on some dusty sandlot. Baptised Under Fire All three have had their baptism under fire in some other sport, Smith as a hockey defenseman, Smithers as a halfback and Smick as both gridder and cager. Smith, farthest along the condi- tioning trail, features a fine fast ball and, can "pull the string" on it with considerable effect. This change of pace was Burt's chief asset until Coach Ray Fisher took him in tow and taught him a curve ball, whicht he has mastered well to date, withf improvement bound to follow.f Smick has been bothered by a stiff- ness in his shoulders due probablys to his football activity. But lately he has shown a semblance of the fast ball he used to blaze by batters as a freshman, and with warmer weather loosening up those muscles, he should come along in great shape. Curve Ball Develops Smithers also experienced diffi- culty snapping his fast ball down the slot because of shoulder tension. In- tensive work has loosened him up, however, and now he can barrel a fairly fast ball over the plate. Under Fisher's vaunted tutelage, John has developed a good curve. He showed it to advantage in Tuesday's drill, and if it remains consistent then oppos- ing batters are going to find him troublesome. Smith and Smithers are juniors, having attained eligibility for base- ball for the first time this semester. Smick is a sophomore, who may di- vide his time between the mound and first base, where Fisher plans to utilize his latent hitting power. Lou Banks, Roger Lockwood and Fred Schroeder--heavy slug- gers all of them-will be back in the outfield . . . Jimmy Morgan, the "mighty mite" will handle the second base position . . . In the backstop post, Ollie Hess, sophomore star, is giving Glen Stover, last year's regular re- ceiver, a great fight for the start- ing catcher's job. Michigan is getting a break in the Ohio Wesleyan game since the Dela- ware nine is playing Cincinanti in its first league game of the season on the day after it meets the Wolver- ines . . . Thomas will probably be saved for the Cincinnati game.

WFoR' SUITS nd'TOCATS MONTREAL, March 31.-(P)-De- troit's Red Wings received the bad news tonight that Norman Smith, in- jured goalie, has no chance of being back in the lineup for Thursday night's title game with Les Canad- lens. The game, which will decide the National Hockey League champion- ship and the Stanley Cup contestant, will end a five-game series evened up by Tuesday night's 3 to 1 victory by. the Montreal Canadiens. Manager Jack Adams of the Red Wings, after conferring with Dr. C. L. Tomsu, team physician, and James Norris, Sr., owner, announced there was "absolutely no possibility" for Smith to play. He said he wanted also to correct an impression that Earl Robertson, rookie goalie, would be replaced be- cause of Tuesday night's defeat. Small Hope For Jones In Augusta Golf Classic AGUSTA, Ga., March 31.-(VP)-On the eve of golf's nearest approach to a world series, 38 ranking profes- sionals, seven amateurs and business man competitor Robert T. Jones, Jr., made up the entry list for the fourth scramble over 72 holes in the Agusta National Tournament. For the first time since Jones re- entered competition for the all-star battle, the Atlantalawyer was not a favorite in the betting.

Performances by the California thinclads were not quite up to predictions but even so were good enough to prove that the Bears have a formidable team with plenty of concentrated power. He was kept out of the high jump during the indoor season because of an injured knee but with that com- pletely healed he is now practicing in the jump daily. Coach Hoyt feels that Watson should be good for third place at least against California for he is capable of clearing the bar at better than six feet and the Bears possess only two men doing six feet .! > <: , is ''" _ $ :: ::'...
