On even terms now, they halved the next two. On the 18th and last hole, Gilbert's second shot was 20 feet from the cup. Palmer ran into difficulty as he pushed his second into some deep grass, with a downhill lie, at the edge of a trap. Loses On 18h He came out of it too strong on his third shot, but chipped a 50- footer to the lip of the cup, where it stopped. He had to take a bogie 5 on the hole as Gilbert easily made his par to win the match and the Big Ten title, 298-299. In the best four-man team totals, the Illini held on to the lead they had, gained at the half-way mark with John Holmstrom and Gene Modjeska leading the way This year's winning score, 1245, is 48 strokes higher than the total North- western required to win the title last, year. Palmer again led the Michigan team with rounds of 75-71--299, as Jack Emery rallied after his blowup in the first day to card a pair of 74's, ending up with 312. Black Scores 317 Bill Black added a 76 and an 81 to his first day round of 160 to take a 72-hole total of 317. Both Tom Tussing and Lynn Riess blew sky high into the 80's again. Tussing shot 80-84 and Riess 85-86. Back of the two leaders, Gilbert and Palmer, who were the only ones to break 300, were Holmstrom, Illi- nois, 303; Ben Jacobs, Wisconsin, and Modjeska, Illinois, 310. 72-Hole Michigan Scores: Palmer 299; Emery 312; Black 317; Tussing 326; Riess 332.

Baily fared little bet- ter than his predecessor as the Wol- verines scored once in the fourth and three times more in the fifth to swell their total to eleven. Baily man- aged to hold Michigan in check for the last four innings. Jack Barry received credit for the Varsity victory. The ace righthand- er pitched five scoreless innings be- fore easing up to allow the Teachers three runs in the sixth. Bill Hill's single, a double by Norm Snyder and a home run by Bob Metzger did the trick. Stoddard Finishes Mickey Stoddard finished the last three innings for Coach Ray Fish- er's team. Stoddard was touched for a run in the seventh when Johnny Cuckovich drove one of his pitches out of the park for a home run. A base on balls to pinch-hitter Hig- gins, an error by Mike Sofiak and Fred Nyman's single produced West- ern State's last run in the ninth. . Trosko, Chamberlain and Ruehle all came to aid of the Wolverine cause with some sparkling, fielding plays that cut off Kalamazoo bids for base hits.

Bob Palmer narrowly missed the Big Ten hall of fame yesterday as he finished second to Ohio State's Bill Gilbert for the individual golf championship at the Conference meet in Columbus. Palmer, eight strokes behind as play began, tied the Buckeye on the 17th but blew up on the final hole to take a 299 against Gilbert's 298. Two-Mile Relay Mark Broken By Freshman Coach Chester Stackhouse's year- ling trackmen yesterday added to their year-long assault of freshman cinderpath records as a two-mile re- lay team shattered by more than 14 seconds the former mark established last year. The record-making quartet, made up of Dave Matthews, John Purdue, Bob Ufer and Quentin Brelsford, ran the distance in 7:54.8 minutes, bet- tering the old mark of 8:09 made by Johnny Kautz, Bill Ackerman, Rich- ard Fogg and Bill Leake. A1hu ii Award ... At 5 p.m. yesterday, Mcia' football forces gathered in the Union to hear the announcement of the Chicago Alumni award winner for 1940.1 They held one of those meet- ings where a half dozen guys sit around biting their nails and the rest just sit around. Crisler had seen to it earlier this week that all his men did not lose their nails. ie named a list of eligibles that included six or possibly seven men. And when Wally Weber opene l the meeting with a short talk about, the history of the award, it was evident that the gridders weren't interested in a history lesson. Even the great tonsilorial expert couldn't keep their minds from wondering. The huskies had come for one purpose, and that's what they kept thinking about. Then Weber introduced Meyer Mor- ton, the Western Conference grid official and Chicago Alumni repre- sentative. For a moment, it seemed as though Morton was going to get right to the point. Almost at the very beginning, he announced a list of seven men who had been considered for the award. As he called out each one, a heart beat faster and about 40 pairs of eyes lighted on a hopeful individual. He named Call first. Then' Ingalls and Ceithaml. And at that point he commented that those two were the only gridders with perfect attendance records during the spring training. Following this, he men- tioned Wise, Melzow, Wistert and Flora as possibilities. The gathering grew tense. Those seven men were in the spotlight and the finishing announcement seemed only seconds away. But Morton fooled them. As the hopefuls braced themselves and figured out what they would say if they won, the speaker changed the subject. He pointed out the privileges of being a Michigan man. He remind- DAILY DOUBLE ed the gridders that they should feel honored and happy living in a coun- try such as this, and going to a school such as this. He said "the men in this room are mlucky. They have good physiques and husky bodies." The nervous gridders forgot their troubles long enough to throw out their pound- ing chests. AinI after1 minutes, Mortoi pu:sed fur a mment. The grid- de.s braced temsilves 'gain. lie unwi'apped the cloth from the life-sizEd silver football and then it came. "And the winner of the award this year is . . . George Ceith- aml." Te room was quiet for a moment.I The big Chicago freshman finally caught his bearings enough to get up to the table. He seemed startled and amazed. That very morning he had expressed a pessimistic outlook. "I haven't got a chance," he had said. They'd be gypping someone if they gave it to me. It'll be one of the older fellows." But the 185 pound quarterback was wrong. The coaches had felt his attitude, value, attendance, and progress were good enough to merit the annual award. And we agree with the coaches. George has done an amazing job in prac- tice this spring. He has shown the fact that he is just what the doctorordered to spell Evashev- ski next ,year. tie's a deadly blok- er and a capable pass snatcher. le has spark, brains and brawn. The fact that he didn't miss a day of practice all spring speaks for itself. George won't have to worry about' the "Kiss of Death" nemesis, either, That's an old idea now. You might remember that after the John Jordan and Trosko era, they felt that maybe the award was not a good thing to win after all. But since then, Trosko came back brilliantly. Kodros was elected captain and Fritz has had a highly successful year. Qick Wits' Award The all-campus archery crown went to H. F. Quick yesterday as he topped a field of 15 entries with a 333 score. W. Phillips and G. Ro- dechke took second and third places, respectively. The competition was an American Round, with each contest- ant shooting 30 arrows at 60, 50 and 40 yard distances. Dave Conger, who was in charge of the tournament, gave an exhibition, shooting a 581 score. Conger placed third in the state meet at Lansing last week with a 634 total. The fraternity softball title race took a new twist yesterday when it Netters' Hopes Rest Ott Tobint Captiin Durst Two of the men from whom Michi- g)n expects much this coming week- endc at Evanston. Ill., scene of the Conference tennis cham pionships, are Capt. Sam Durst and Jim Tobin. This year Durst has blossomed forth into one of the three or four fest number one men in the Big Ten. 'The slender southpaw has beaten such ollutstanding netters as Buck Shane of Kalamazoo, Charles Sho- strom of Chicago, Western State's ace Gene Russell, and one of Dc- troit's best, Bill Maul of Wayne. I}nrst Lacks Confidence You night think that these vic- tories immeasurably increased the Wolverine captain's confidence in himself, but unfortunately that is not the case. His recent loss to Perkins, a mediocre man from Michigan State, indicates that Durst as yet hasn't acquired the proper mental attitude so necessary for a winning tennis player. Why he should lack confidence is indeed a mystery. If he begins to realize that he has' a net game second to few, and utiliz- es it to the fullest extent, he should go to the semi-finals of his tourna- ment and pick up more than a few valuable points for the team. Tobin Holds Key Jim Tobin really holds the key to Michigan's slim title hopes. For a period of six weeks, early in the sem- ester, Tobin labored under the mis- conception that he had water on the knee. Only when it was discovered that he had a torn cartilage instead, did Tobin and Coach Weir revive their previously shattered hopes of a big season for Jim and Michigan. Last year, Jim Tobin won the num- ber two championship of the Big Ten and was looking forward to even bigger things this spring. Despite the fact that he has been hobbling around on a knee and a half, the Detroit Junior has been hitting the ball very well. In the Wayne and Michigan State matches, Tobin played number four, the position Weir plans to play him at in the confer'- enece Chamipionship. Tobin also will be playing number two doubles with Wayne Stille, and should the knee bear up, this com- bination can very easily take the number two doubles title. Coach Weir and Michigan tennis fans are fervently hoping that Jim has had his share of tough luck. The gods should be smiling upon him now, and if they do, the squad will benefit accordingly. Each school in the Big Ten meet will be represented by six singles men and three doubles teams. Nine separate tournaments will be run off with each player entered in his own ranked contest. Cliiago Alumni ro~phy Is Givelt To Freshian A wa'(I ( ci o Playe Selected for Showing ('Iel't huprovenitenl (('on i tiewd frm ttP;ge 1) hampered by the small number of plays at his disposal. The husky, 19-year-old youth mod- esly revealed a high school record that includes two other trophies-the Kiwanis Club Trophy as the most valuable player on the Lindblon, Chicago, High School siuad, and the Elks Club Cup for combined athletic ability and scholarship. He was all- section quarterback in central Chi- cago for two years, during which his team lost only two games, and cap- tain in his senior year. He confined his efforts to foot- ball in high school, but Ceithaml has worked behind the plate for Coach Ernie McCoy's freshman baseball squad since coming to Ann Arbor, and indicated that he may try his hand at the shot put next year. He will major in chemistry here at the Uni- versit y. Ceithaml's award broke a two-year stretch in which lettermen have tak- en the big silver football. Center Archie Kodros received the coaches' votes in 1938, and Ralph Fritz, chunky guard, took it last spring as a sopho- more. Morton, one of the leading Michigan alumni in the Chicago area, is rated high among Big Ten offi- cials. He has come to Ann Arbor to make the award every year since 1925, when the Chicago Alumni Club made its first presentation to Ray Baer, Louisville, Ky., guard. The choice is made, Morton said, on the basis of attendance, attitude, value to the team, and general improvement dur- ing the spring preparation for the fall campaign. In his presentation speech, Morton pointed out that next fall's Wolverines will have the spe- cial task of upholding Michigan tra- dition on both coasts within the space of two weeks, when they miect Cali- fornia in the opener and Harvard in early October.

The marks most likely to fall before the onslaught of some of the nation's finest trackmen are the high .iump, 440-yard dash, discus throw and mile relay standards. 100-Yard&Dash: Last year's cham- pion, Myron Piker, of Northwestern, is back again to defend his 'rown, and will he the speedster to beat in this event. The Wildcat flash and George Franck of Minnesota football fame have turned in the best time for the outdoor season to date with 9.8 performances. Michigan's Al Smith and Bud Piel, and Chicago's John Davenport all can travel the distance consistently under 10 sec- onds. 220-Yard Dash: Wolverine Smith looms as a potential winner here, as he took second last year and has a best mark of 21.2. Ted Tycocki of Purdue has the outdoor season's fast- est time of 21.4. Last year's fourth- place winner, Carl Culver, and sopho- more Piel, have both done 21.5, and will fight it out with Piker, Franck, and Burt Downs of Illinois for valu- able points. 440-Yard Dash: Having already bettered the 24-year old Conference record of 47.4 with a sensational 47.2 performance against Pittsburgh last week. Michigan's smooth-striding Warren Breidenbach will be favored to shatter the existing mark, but it may take more than this to win the event. For Roy Cochran of Indiana beat the Wolverine in the indoor meet, while running the World's record in- door time of 48.2. Michigan's Jack Leutritz, Ohio's Capt. Jack Sulzman, and Illinois' Capt. Will McCown are other strong threats. 880-Yard Run: With a plethora of good half-milers pointing for the race, this event appears to be a toss- up. The Maize and Blue has a good' bet in Dye Hogan who possesses the season's best time of 1:53.8, while Indiana's Campbell Kane clipped off1 1:53 last year as a freshman. Last year's winner, Ed Buxton of Wiscon- sin, also copped the indoor title this year, and will be highly respected by the rest of the field. Hogan's run- ning mate, sophomore Johnny Kautz, Ohio's Les Eisenhart, and Purdue's Ed Holderman will also figure im- portantly in the event. Mile Run: Sophomore Kane copped the Conference indoor event with a 4:14.3 performance, but has not yet proven conclusively he can double in both (lie mile and half-mile events. Beaten by the Hoosier flash indoors, Purdue's Ed Holderman is neverthe- less a very capable miler who has done 4:13.2 for the distance. Michi- gan's Ed Barrett who placed third both outdoors and indoors, and Karl Wisner who took fifth outdoors, In- diana's Ed Hedges and Wayne Tolli- ver and Ohio's Eisenhart complete a very good field. Two-Mile Run: With Michigan's Capt. Ralph Schwarzkopf definitelyf out of the meet due to his recent streptococcic throat infection, this event produces no outstanding fav- orite. Minnesota's Irv Liljegren has turned in the best time to date of 9:28.5. Michigan's transformed half- miler, Tom Jester, and his teammate, sophomore Bill Ackerman, and Brad Heyl rate well, as do Ohio's Gene Kiracofe, Indiana's Hedges and T'oli- ver and Wisconsin's Bill Farin, who placed third imdoors to Sliwarzkopl and Hedges. I I 120-Yard hiigh i ur dlcs: A wide was di'covered that Phi Beta Delta, open race looms in this event with due to a misunderstanding, had used Ed Smith of Wisconsin rating as a an incligible player in their semi- slight favorite.

Olsen, Kelley, Sulz- man, Smith, Michigan's Jeff Hall and Purdue's Dave Rankin are all cap- able low hurdlers who should press Cochran hard.
