Mickey forced Miller to ground to Steppon, ending the inning, and held the Illini at bay in the ninth to pre- serve the Michigan lead. Illinois jumped on Bond early to score twice in each of the first two innings. With one out in the first, Russ Drechsler tripled, Evers walked and stole second, and both crossed the plate on Hapac's single to cen- ter. In the second, Brewer walked, Mi- losevich doubled and pitcher Al Grant came through with a timely single to give the Illini a 4-0 margin. The Wolverines got one back in the third when Bond walked, went to third on Pink's hit and scored on Sofiak's infield out. Michigan added another run in the sixth. Steppon was hit by a pitch and Ruehle and Harms chipped in with base hits to score the Wolverine second baseman. A keen pitching duel is anticipat- ed in tomorrow's game when Jack Barry and Johnny Pacotti, rival aces, are sent to the mound.

Today's column is written by Don Wirtchafter, who has covered varsity swimming. Track a la Derby... We're not ones to get sentimental or anything like that, but we can't help feeling sorry for the Michigan trackmen today. We're frankly wor- ried about the future of this Wolver- ine team if changes aren't made, and made in a hurry. Now seriously, how would you feel if you were racing your heart out against Illinois this afternoon, and when you went to see what .the pa- pers thought of the track meet, all you could find were pictures of horses and stories from Churchill Downs. As we understand it, they're running off some sort of Kentucky Derby down there today, and no other sporting event has a chance to break into the headlines. The geegees have a monopoly on the thing. Well, believers as we are in anti-trust laws, something ought to be done about this. After all, the Wolverine lads, educated, able homo sapiens as they are, will be doing the same sort of galloping this afternoon as the horses. They'll be trying just As hard and steering their uwiL courses, which is more than even the great Bimelech can do. But still, the fans, 100,000 or more, will stream into the bluegrass country. Radios will carry the hoofer results and propaganda throughout the world. The greatest sports writers in the nation will be in Louisville, and the Wolverine lads will run here. What is more, when Bimelech wins (Ooops, we weren't supposed Varsity Netters Meet Maroons Here Indoors Defending Big 10 Champs Powerful Despite Loss Of Murphy Twins Chicago's tennis team, Big Ten champions for the past three years, will meet Coach Weir's Wolverine netmen at 1:15 p.m. today on the Sports Building's indoor courts un- less a sudden change in weather con- ditions permits the match to be played outdoors. Weakened by the graduation of last year's star twin combination, Chet and Bill Murphy, the Maroons drop- ped a match to Northwestern, cur- rent title favorites, Wednesday, 6-3, but in doing so Chicago displayed much promise for the future. Leading the contingent from the Midway are Charles Shostrom, Art Jorgensen, and Cal Saywier. In the Northwestern match Shostrom took Seymour Greenberg outstanding fav- orite to cop the number one singles' Conference crown, to three sets be- fore losing. Jorgensen, Chicago num-' bei two man, and Saywier, Chicago' Junior Champion, downed North- western's Harrison O'Neill and Clif- ford, respectively. Most encouraging to the Wolver- ines is the fact that Chicago lost its last three singles matches to the, Wildcats, while Michigan's strength is in these spots. Playing for the Weirmen in the, top singles position will be Capt. Sam Durst, sensational upset winner over Marian "Buck" Shane, Kalamazoo ace, last Thursday. Jim Tobin will play number two, with Tom Gamon, Harry Kohl, Wayne Stille and Bob Jeffers taking over the three, four, five and six positions respectively. Durst and Tobin form the only certain Michigan doubles team, meet- ing Shostrom and Jorgensen, Chica- go's number one duo in the feature doubles match. Coach Weir has been experimenting with all the available combinations at his disposal, and hasn't made a definite decision in regard to the makeup of his second and third combines. i i i t S a c a 'INEJERG Cushing Out With Injury; to let out that information.

"Our last two matches were awfully close and Ohio State is always tough for us on this course." Capt. Bob Palmer will team up with Emery in the best ball matches in the morning as Bill Black and Tom Tussing and Lynn Riess and Goodwin Clark complete the Var- sity doubles team. Ohio State will bring a six-man team led by Capt. Charles Evans with Bill Gilbert, John Simione, Sam Bartchy, Bud Bellino and possibly Tony Montonaro rounding out the rest of the squad. In the afternoon singles matches, starting about 1:00 p.m., Courtright is undecided about his lineup. Pal- mer and Emery are sure to play, but it's a toss-up as to who will play the other positions. Dave Osler and John Barr both may get a chance to show their stuff with Goodwin Clark, the sensational sophomore, likely to see'plenty of ac- tion in either the morning or after- noon rounds. A glance over the records shows that the Buckeyes from Columbus have found the competition from their Maize and Blue rivals rather rough for the past two seasons. Last year, Michigan's team, which fin- ished second in the Conference, swamped State, 20-4 and 18!/-8%, in their two meetings. Big Bo Bimelech In Walk-Straight From His Feed Box LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 3.-(/)- Everything looked made to order for Big Boy Bimelech tonight. A field of nine was named for to- morrow's 66th running of the Ken- tucky Derby and Old. Man Weather promised to turn off his frost and rain faucets for the big doings. It was still as cold as the inside of your ice box around here tonight and the track was slow. Mr. Weather didn't say positively, but if he does his stuff and provides a fast run- ning strip, it will just make the whole mile-and-a-quarter affair more lop- sided for Bimmie, who is bidding a fifth Derby victory for Col. E. R. Bradley and who probably will be the shortest priced favorite in the history of the classic. If he's as good as 2 to 5 in the mutuels, the betting boys and girls will consider it a bar- gain, indeed, and if he wins (which just about everybody fully expects) he'll collect a neat $60,675 as the winner's end in a nine-horse race. With the exception of Arnold Han- ger's Dit, the $4,000 Saratoga year- ling sales bargain who romped off with the Wood Memorial last week, the standouts are the slop-steppers, like William L. Brann' Pictor, a son of Challenger 2nd, Royal Man, Jos- eph E. Widener's Roman, and Mrs. Ethel V. Mars' Gallahadion.

People go for that sort of thing. After all, what's a big sports event without a good hearty traffic jam? Once the customers got inside the gate, we planned on having three steel-lunged hawkers leap on the cars selling free passes, balloons, racing forms, tooth picks, sun glasses, gas masks, and new cars. Of course, they would have also handled the tip sheets . . . "Dopey Don's Daily Dopings", the only service in the world in which the expert actually talked it over with the runners during the morning workouts. Ferry Field itself was to have been done over like the New York World's Fair with a huge pond in the center in which Billy Rose's performers would have put on shows between the races. The horse tracks have markers at the end of each furlong. Well, we intended to have the four beautiful girls on campus stand 110 yards apart along the track. It would have made an impressive sight. Then too, we had to consider the geegee followers who wouldn't have been satisfied with the human race, no matter how we spiced it up. We needed something for them. That was one of our more difficult prob- lems but we finally decided to have Schwarzkopf, Balyeat and the rest of the Wolverine lads gallop with monkeys on their back and blinkers on their eyes. In that way, these horse lovers would feel more at home and wouldn't miss the change, We had one more thing for them. We intended to give .22-piece horse- shoe sets to the bingo winners, since naturally bingo, screeno, horso, and bank night would have entered into our plan. We also had a name for our whole show . . . one .that was fitting and proper, and original, of course. We struck upon the Kendoherty Derby at beautif l Ferry Field Park. It has that certain "je ine sais quoi," shall we say. Well, there are the plans that would have left Churchill Downs as quiet as the cemetery across from Jordan Hall today. Yep, the Wol- verine lads would have found tl-ir blinkered faces all over the papers. Ann Arbor would have been packed, or something. M. DW. I1 I -I One-Mile Run 1. Jester, (M).
