SATURDAY, APRIL 22, 1939 PAGE THREE THE MICHIGAN DAILY , Meets Champ To Jay PRESS PASSES By BUD BENJAMIN Michigan Nine Drops Opener To Ohio, 31 Five Track men Lost To Hoyt; Team Still Favored Over Illini +:.... . .* 1: Swim Aftermath... THE SWIMMING banquet last night at the Union was a pleas- ant mixture of sentimentality and horseplay as nearly 50 people gath- ered to do honor to Michigan's Na- tional and Conference titleholders.t Matt and Mrs. Mann, squad mem- bers and dates, a few parents, and three members of the press sat around? the horseshoe table in 319 and al- ternately chewed over the 1939 sea- son and a rather tough steak pre-< pared by the Union chef. Athletic banquets can be very pleasurable or very annoy- ing. Excessive tear jerking, long l winded speeches, and a poor meal are some of the nemeses com- mon to these affairs, but despite l the aforementioned steak entree, last night's gathering was close to perfect. John Haigh arranged the meeting, and the junior breast-stroker did a top-notch job. Even during the meal there was no lull. I sat across from. freshman free-styler G'us Sharemet, and this rosy cheeked yearling gave me some riotous moments. I have heard stories of the raven- ous appetites of Harold Floersch, the baseballer, and Ed Christy, the soph-; omore fullback, but in young Share- met they have a fitting rival. The husky Hamtramck product downed two fruit salads, three steaks, two, dishes of peas, countless rolls, coffee, two glasses of cream, ice cream and innumerable cup cakes. Last seen he; and Tommy Williams, a frosh team- mate whose pockets bulged from a liberal snatch of rolls, were seen en- tering a . State Street hamburger joint for a couple with relish and pickle. Forty-nine of the eaters (Share- met never stopped) paused be- tween the main course and the desert to ballot for the most handsome natator, an annual Tennis Tilts Set Back In Schedule The scheduled dual tennis match between Michigan and Michigan State Normal College was indefinite- ly postponed yesterday, owing to the condition of the courts at both schools. The match was originally sched- uled to be played today at Ypsilanti, but earlier in the week Coach Weir was notified that the courts there were not fit for use, and the request was made to bring play to Ann Arbor. custom. Despite my subtle cam- paigning for Gus, the race end- ed in a dead heat with Waldemar Tomski and Bill Beebe the chosen two. Hazing of the traditional red-hot variety was introduced when Haigh called . on . yearling . swimmers . Gus Sharemet, Williams, John Sharemt, Dick Reidl, Georg Carulla, and T. Bone Martin to tell what they intend- ed to do for Michigan next year. Usually the neophytes managed a "well, I-" before their raucous team- mates would interrupt with vocifer- ous cheers and clapping. Only Car- ulla spoke without interruption, for his oration was in Spanish. Georg, a member of the Spanish Olympic team, left his war-torn country for Michigan and will swim for 'Matt next year. Squad members were present- ed with significant gifts by Haigh, among them a first aid kit to the frail Charley Barker, a shovel to the verbose Ed Mack, a baby doll book to woman killer Tomski, a memorandum book to the forgetful Bill Beebe, and a picture of Shirley Temple to mis- ogynist Jim Welsh. Interspersed in the horseplay were some fitting tributes to each team member delivered by Haigh and con- tinued eating by Sharemet. The banquet concluded or the seri- ous side. Tom Haynie, the outgoing captain, was presented a handsome traveling bag by his mates which should serve him well on his trip to England this summer. Said Haynie in accepting the gift: "I want to pay special tribute tonight to Matt Mann, a grand coach and besides that a coach who rates ,as a man. Hal Ben- ham, your new captain, should have the best team in Michigan history next year." Mann was presented with a beau- tiful electric clock, fashioned in the nautical motif, by the squad mem- bers and wound up the evening with the following words: "Fellows, this is a happy end- ing of the best year Michigan ever had in swinuning. Next year we should have an even better team-but there will never be a* better team in spirit. I want to thank you-all for working-work-. ing as hard as you did. If we are to have a, championship team next year you fellows will have to work just as hard. I know that you will.' Looking around the room after he finished, I am inclined to agree with hiii.

Lyle Bond worked the eighth and set the Buckeyes down in order, ex- hibiting a fine fast ball in doing so. The bespectacled sophomore from Clare has looked better each time he has toed the mound and will undoubt- edly be promoted to a starting role in the near future. Buckeyes Score First The Bucks counted first in the third inning when Ralph Waldo doubled and scored on Meyer's long single. In the fifth, football star Jim- my Sexton who played left field, opened with a double to deep left and Meyers came through with his sec- ond hit to send him across. In the seveilth, the Buckeyes gar- ,nered their final marker. Waldo opened with a single and was sacri- ficed to second by Dagenhard. Dick Wulfhorst next up, grounded to Mike Sofiak and Waldo ran far out of the baseline to avoid being tagged by the Wolverine third baseman. The rule says that a runner is allowed only three feet on either side, but Waldo was called safe at third and counted a moment later on Meyers' long sacrifice fly. Wolverines Muff Chance Michigan's big chance came in the eighth when pinch-hitter Bill Step- pon and Charley Pink walked and Sofiak beat out an infield single fill- ing the bases. But then Capt. Walt Peckinpaugh hit into a double play. Steppon scored but the rally was end- ed a minute later as Freddie Trosko popped to second. The two teams will meet again to- morrow with either Smick or Bond scheduled to face Gene Dornbrook, Ohio's sophomore star. By DICK SIERK' Coach Charley Hoyt thinks he will have a good track team outdoors this year if-and the "if" looms larger with every day of cold rainy weather he can ever get all of the strength of his squad on the battle front at one time. When the Wolverines square off1 against Illinois at Champaign today they will be without the services of five men normally included on every traveling squad. Coach Hoyt probably won't need. his complete squad to knock off dual meet victories over Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio State but when the Confer- ence meet rolls around he may need all the points he can get. It's the Big Ien meet-his last-that counts with Charley, you know. Elmer Gedeon, number one hurd- ler in the Big Ten, is not a victim of any muscular disorders as are the others, but the big Clevelander is suffering from a malady just as threatening to Michigan track. Big' Ged is a victim of "baseball bug." HIe has been -so successful in early sea- son games with Ray Fisher's' team that he may decide to venture on the track only to defend his Conference championship over the high sticks May 19 and 20. Wes Allen is another source of worry in the Wolverine camp. His knee ailment is slowly responding to treatment but he will be out for two more weeks at least. Quarter-miler Doug Hayes, dash- man Warren Breidenbach, and hurd- ler John Kutsche are victims of min- or muscle injuries and did not make the trip to Champaign. Sore arms were also a problem this week as javelin throwers Fred Os- berg and Jack Kinsey, both veterans, strained their arms and Ken Doherty was forced to name Perry Kimerer, Bob Hockberger, and Dick Bennett, all new men, for the spear tossing assignment at Champaign. Despite their imposing hospital list the Wolverines will be top-heavy fav- orites against the Illini. Last year the Hoytmen rolled up a total double that of the Johnson coached outfit and there is little in the Illinois roster that suggests an appreciable cut will be made in that margin today. Coach Hoyt's reserve strength appears good enough to take over the Illini's best. H. W. CLARK English Boot and Shoe Maker " Our new repair department, the best in the city.

Golf Match Put Off Until May 3 The golf match between Michigan and Michigan State which was sched- uled to be- played at the University golf course this afternoon has been postponed to Wednesday, May 3, be- cause of inclement weather. The University course is now well- soaked from the recent rains. Coach Courtright hopes that good weather over the weekend will dry it out so that the golfers can practice next week for their match with Purdue on Saturday. The Boilermakers have shown con- siderable strength so far this year, defeating the University of Tennessee by a greater score than the Wolver- ines did on their recent spring tour. Assuming playable weather condi- tions, the coming week will give Coach Courtright nfore opportunity to compare the abilities of his large, well-balanced squad recently re- turned from their successful-..spring trip which they capped off with a de- cisive win over Ohio State after win- ning all four of their matches in the South.
