That is precisely one situation that Michigan's ace pole vaulter doesn't want to hear about. It seems that ever since they started battling in the Far East, bamboo pole exports from that sec- to" of the world have dropped off - zverely. As a result, the Wolverine tra-kr n are having difficulties F ecuring the poles they want when Sthey want them. Before the Conference indoor meet- last weekend, Decker was tearing his hair out trying to find a pole that suited his requirements. Wolverine grders were being cancelled right and left by the merchants.

With this to work on as a starter, the Michigan coach can call on John- ny Erpelding, reserve last year, and three promising sophomores to fill any holes that may arise and keep the letter-winners fighting for their places.

A sophomore on this campus, Tom holds the unique distinction of hav- ing won a Golden Gloves title with- out stepping into the ring. A month ago he entered this year's Golden Gloves tournament in Jack- son, after having won the Ann Arbor novice 175-pound title last year. Shortly before his first two sched- uled fights his adversaries contracted sudden cases of chilblains and house- maid's knee, respectively; and on the night of the finals the examining physician refused to permit his op- ponent to fight. Thus Tommy Flake, untouched by human hands, was crowned light-heavyweight Golden Gloves champion of Jackson, Tom Was Worried. By the time he got to Grand Rapids to compete in the statet.tournament, Tom was actually worried lest he be soft through lack of practice, un- able to last three fast rounds. Hence he felt cheered no end when he de- cisioned his first man without draw- ing a deep breath. In the semi-finals the next night they matched him against a very rough, bull-like Mexican lad named Tores, who was the prohibitive fa- vorite to take the 175-pound title. And when Torres got Tommy against the ropes early in the initial stanza his stock went even higher with the fans. In fact he remained the peo- ple's choice until that precise mo- I, ment toward the end of the round when Flake drilled a left hook smack onto his button. At the count of nine Torres the Bull came up from smell- ing the flowers long enough for Tom- my to dynamite him with one more left smash and down he went for keeps. It took his handlers ten full minutes to recall him to this world. Flake Stuns Fans fAnd then, having stunned the spec- tators with his one-round homicide of their pride and joy, Flake fought again that night, this time for the championship. The first two rounds he took in the proverbial walk, so completely did he outclass his opponent. But then, with only two short minutes sep- arating him and official recognition t as the best amateur light-heavy- weight in the state of Michigan, he walked square into a right hand: shot that dumped him on the canvas. He took a full nine count to rest up- no need to get overanxious with two out of three rounds already salted away. And then he roared back into his foe so savagely that he all but won that round too, despite the knockdown. Tom Loses Decision But they gave the other guy -the decision-and Tommy's title. So that it was he who went to Chicago to fight in tpe Tournament of Cham- pions, while Tom Flake, whose only mistake in three bouts was to walk into one right hand punch, returned quietly to Ann Arbor-a champion in all but name. .,.,...
