A 'tiY, MAY 18, 1940 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Nine Edges Out Purdue,6-5;Netmen Triumph Over PACE THRUI Wayne Trosko Scores Wnnig Run In 11th Inning Wolverines Commit Six Errors; Hand Visitors Four Unearned Runs (Continued from Page 1) ond-baseman knocked down the throw, only to be bowled over by Chamberlain charging across the base. McFerren went one way, the ball went the other, and Trosko lit out for third. Relief pitcher Johnny Emmert ran over from the mound, grabbed the loose ball, and heaved it in the gen- eral direction of third base to nip Trosko. The throw was wild and the fleet Varsity outfielder kept right on moving to cross the plate with the winning run. Jack Barry, on the mound for Mich- igan, turned in a creditable perform- ance, but was the victim of some ragged support on the part of his mates. The Wolverine ace was en- joying a 4-1 lead when his defense crumbled in the sixth., A single by Johnny Vernon sand- wiched between errors by Mike Sofiak and Chamberlain filled the bases. Frank Smithson then slapped a single to center to make the score 4-3. In the seventh, Felix Mackiewicz reached second on a freak double thata bounced off Sofiak's glove into short left field. Another hit through So- fiak by Vernon tied the score. Michigan regained the lead in the last half of the inning when Cham- berlain beat out an infield hit, stole second, moved to third on an infield out, and scored on George Harms' fly to center field. Purdue threatened in the eighth, but a fine throw from Trosko to Harms nailed Fisher trying ,to score from second on Emmert's single to left. The Varsity defense cracked again in the ninth to enable Purdue to draw even. Bill Steppon fumbled cFerren's grounder to put the run on base. Wayne Hearne sacrificed and Barry uncorked a wild pitch to send McFerren to third from where he scampered home on Mackiewicz's dribbler to the infield. Michigan's victory lifted the team into a third place tie with the idle Iowa nine, but still left the Wolver- ines one game behind Northwestern and, Illinois who defeated their re- spective Wisconsin and Indiana op- ponents.

Kelley rates the favorite's role in the 120-yard high hurdles, having an edge over Pitt's Joe Newman and Lenny Powell. In the half-mile Michigan's Dye Hogan should edge out the Panthers' best man, Del Anderson, as well as the Maize and Blue sophomore, Johnny Kautz. A close duel looms in the pole vault with Pitt's Dusty Rhoades and Michigan's Charlie Decker both ca- pable of bettering 13 feet. Senior Dave Cushing should beat out Pan- ther Maurice Jessup for third. Between them Pittmen John Bazyk and Jim Elliott should cop the shot put and javelin throw, with the dis- cus throw a tossup between Bazyk and Michigan's George Ostroot. Wolverine Don Canham will be an overwhelming favorite over Pitt's in- consistent Dave McDowell in the high jump. Pitt's best distance man, Al Bou- langer, doubles' in the mile and two- mile, but does not figure to win ei- ther this afternoon. Tom Jester and sophomore Bill Ackerman should fight it out for the two-mile, while Ed Barrett and Karl Wisner are the choices to place one-two in the mile for Michigan. If Ohl does not enter .the 440-yard dash, Michigan's undefeated Warren Breidenbach should nose out his teammate, Jack Leutritz, for first, with Panther Al Ferrarra in third. With the meet perhaps hanging on the outcome of the windup mile relay, a stirring finish is expected between the two veteran quartets. The Wolverines will depend on Brei- denbach, Leutritz, Phil Balyeat and sophomore Bill Dobson, while the Panthers' team will probably be made up of Ohl, Al Ferrarra, Tre- goning and Clyde Graf. Even Prof's Play... We thought for a moment yester- day that Jeff Davis and his hoboes were holding a convention out at Ferry Field, but when we got closer, we discovered differently. It was just the English and Economics departments tangling in what they call the faculty softball league. We tyed around just to see what the profs could do, and by the time we sat down there were so many ( running around the sacks that just a casual observer might have figured they were putting on a preview of today's track meet. The Economists, first up, were of course first to score, 'cause runs and hits were just as easy to get yester- day as bruises, and everybody got bruises. Adam Smith Palmer walked to start things off. Ripper Ratcliff did the same thing. A ringer named Doug Hayes doubled and by the time John Maynard Keynes Bond homered deep into center, seven New Deal runs had crossed the plate. Schoolboy Stibbs was the starting English hurler, but when he walked in after that pounding, his scholarly teammates took one look at the Schoolboy, and Stibbs sat down by a tree and started reciting poetry. "The hits were here, the hits were there, candidates full opportunity to show' what they can do under fire. Rain and even snow kept the squad indoors fully two weeks beyond the time out- door drills should have begun. Running through plays for the past week, the two teams have worked up plenty of spirit for the contest, block- ing and tackling the dummies as though it were mid-October. Both coaching staffs stayed in character by sorrowfully predicting defeat, with Wally Weber, of the Whites board of strategy, cracking, "Both teams will go onto the field undefeated." Clarence Munn, line coach and, Dave Strong are handling the Whites with Weber, while Marty Martineau, backfield coach, Cliff Keen and Archie Kodros will guide the Blues. Al "Whitey" Wistert will captain the Blues, with Bob Ingalls leading the Whites. Besides furnishing a line on next season's squad, the game will be the last opportunity for the players to show what progress they've made this spring, furnishing the basis for the award of the Chicago Alumni tro- phy. The trophy-winner will be named Tuesday, ;May 21. STARTING LINEUPS Blues Pos.
