WEDNESDAY, APRIL 9, 1941 T MICHIGAN DAILY PACE THREE T~lE MI....AN..AI. {1 ,11 "J AAA Alp &'j j:/ :0, Fisher Names 16-Man Squad For Southern Baseball Trip it Cinder Squad To Travel Far After Vacation By HAL WILSON If perchance any of Michigan's varsity trackmen are allergic to train conductors or upper berths they'd better condition themselves in a hur- ry. For Coach Ken Doherty's lads will grab their traveling bags and do plenty of roaming within the next two months in an effort to extend Wolverine spike prestige throughout the nation. Included on the outdoor track itinerary are such long jaunts as Minneapolis, 'Des Moines, South Bend, Palo Alto and Pasadena, Cali- fornia, and even a round trip over to Ypsilanti. Following spring vacation, the Maize and Blue cindermen will swing into action for the initial time in the outdoor campaign April 25 and 26 in the famous Drake Relays at Des Moines. There the Wolverines will pit their strength against the best track talent the Midwest and South- east can offer, and also get a good peek at some of the University of Texas' relay teams which have been busting records this spring as if they were bronchos. Next on the spikemen's slate is a dual meet with Notre Dame on May 3, which promises to be one of the season's highlights. A week later Ohio State's powerful Buckeye crew will invade Ferry Field for Michigan's lone home meet which will provide a stiff tuneup for the Big Ten cham- pionships at Minneapolis. And the Wolverines have some very definite ideas about that Conference conflict - ideas in which Campbell Kane, Roy Cochran, Wayne Tolliver, Archie Harris and the rest of the Hoosier Horde occupy a prominent role. Aiming for its fifth straight out- door crown, Michigan will be primar- ily concerned with avenging the de- feat handed them by Indiana in the indoor meet.. Following the annual Michigan AAU meet in Ypsilanti, May 31, the Maize and Blue squad winds up its season with a pair of West Coast meets, the Big Ten-Pacific Coast en- counter and the National Collegiates. don wirtehater's DAIL Y DOU BLE Dots And Dashes .. . CATCHER'S MITT in hand, the "Great Gusto" Sharemet joined Ray Fisher's pitching corps yesterday Matt Mann's ace freestyler used to hurl high school ball for Ham- tramck and won five games without a loss . . . "Two one-hitters and three breezes" he modestly announces ... He pitched against Bill Steppon's city championship Western High nine and held them runless until the ninth "Their catcher got the only two hits off me, and we licked them, 7-1" claims the "Great Busto." . .. "I re- member smacking out a clean single myself and as I recall the score was 3-2" goes the Steppon version. While Sharemet worked out with the ball team, Jim Welsh romped around the cinders with Ken Do- herty's lads yesterday . . . Welsh had no intentions of making the team . . . "You gotta know how to run when they start shooting bul- lets at you" he optimistically ex- plained himself . . . Talking about the track, have you noticed the re- markable resemblance between Blazin' Bob Ufer and a certain liv- er-lipped sports enthusiast ... Max Bahrych, out for cross country run- ning at the beginning of the year, a member of the hockey team, and recently a tryout for the baseball squad, is now working out again with the track forces . .. Incident- ally, he is the villain that won the race the Double recently ran in .. . The scoundrel. George Van, the Detroit Times sports writer, came to Ann Arbor last weekend to cover the swimming meet and never saw a race . . . Before each event, good Mike Peppe, the Ohio State coach and a very great pal of the Double's, plunked himself on the press table directly in front of Van and all George could do was sit back and relax . . . Could you imagine anything worse than travel- ing 37 miles to watch Peppe's back for a weekend?

MICHIGAN BIDS goodbye to Port Robertson this weekend . . . The drawling Oklahoman who has served as Cliff Keen's assistant during the past four years, will not return af- ter the spring vacation . . . It is rum- ored that he has two good college head coaching offers and will accept one if the army does not sign him before .,.Port was one of the great- est wrestlers of his time and yet he never became a national champ . . . After defeating in dual competition four men who later won titles, he cracked his neck in his first national tourney bid and was ncver the same again. WRESTLING NOTICE All Varsity and freshman wrest- lers, see Art Paddy in the train- ing room between 3:30 and 5:30 today. Carolina Chucker Maryland Is Foe In Initial Dixie Tussle Six Moundsmen Chosen; Goldsmith, Veigel Hurl In Long Practice Game Coach Ray Fisher announced a 16-man traveling squad for the spring trip yesterday after putting his play- ers through a long practice game on the Ferry Field diamond. Six hurl- ers will be among the players whoj leave early Thursday morning for College Park, Md., for their opener with the University of Maryland Fri- day. The squad includes pitchers Cliff Wise, Mickey Stoddard, Paul Gold- smith, Les Veigel, Neil Muir and Mase Gould; infielders, Bill Steppon, George Ruehle, Mike Sofiak, and Bud Chamberlain; outfielders Don Holman, Davie Nelson, Dick Wake- field, Bob Westfall and Bill Cart- mill, and George Harms, catcher. The probable starting outfield will have Holman in left, Nelson in cen- ter and Wakefield, heavy hitting sophomore, in right. Nelson will see duty in the infield if reserve strength is needed there. Goldsmith and Veigel were the only hurlers from the top six who worked in yesterday's practice session. Vei- gel turned in six erratic innings, look- ing alternately good and bad, but Goldsmith showed improvement in the two frames he chucked. The tall right-hander was only touched for one hit, a scratc'i single by West- fall. The soreness in Goldsmith's hurling arm is corking out, Fisher said, and the Massachusetts boy was a smarter pitcher yesterday than he has been. If his arm rounds into shape, Goldsmith should take his regular turn as a starter this spring. The hurling corps is still the sor e' spot on the roster, Fisher admitted.

By GENE GRIBBROEK Toughest opposition the Wolverine baseball squad will meet in the Southland this year will come from Georgetown University and the Uni- versity of Virginia, if pre-season pros- pects come through. Both schools are perennial baseball powers in Dixie, and have come up as expect- ed this year. The strong University of Richmond Club is the only new- corner on the 1941 spring card. The remainder of the schedule shapes up something like this: Georgetown University: Most of the veterans from last year's strong Hoya nine are back again, and George- town is tops in the field and at the plate. In Miller, Koshlap, Pajak and Mylnarski, the Hoyas boast the best infield in college ball today, with a fast outfield to back them up. Vin Powers and Bill Wixted are starting hurlers carried over from last season. Dick Dickelman, originally slated for relief roles, gave Cornell, victor over North Carolina, Duke and Navy, four hits in beating them 2-0 his last time out. Castiglia, behind the plate, is one of the toughest batsmen on the squad. University of Virginia: Boasting a powerhouse squad with five sopho- mores in the starting lineup, the Cavaliers have already knocked off Bridgewater, Dartmouth and Ver- mont as this goes to press. Slugger on the squad is Bill Harman, a heavy- hitting catcher who takes his turn on the mound occasionally. Billy Mc- Cann, a big league prospect at short, and second-baseman Tab Gillette are other threats at the plate. Chuck Kendall leads the soph contingent, covering third and alterniating with McCann in the clean-up slot. Alex Cave is a brilliant hurler, with a six- hit, 6-1 decision over Dartmouth to Joe Louis Conquers Musto In Ninth Round 4 standing and most improved wrest- far as condition goes. Mickey lers on the Michigan freshman mat has worked chiefly in relief roles the' team. past two years, but the Wolverine Greene, who received the outstand- mentor thinks he should be able to ing freshman wrestling award, is also go the route this season. Bob Robinson, Holman and fresh- out for the quarterback job on the man Ernie Schultz divided the rest football team. Kopel, 121-pound of the mound duties in yesterday's grappler, received the award as the tilt.

Louis weighed 203%; Musto 199'/2. Undeniably.. God- looking Immaculate! New Color! Flattering Drape,! ; his credit. Bob McAlpine and John Willey are the other starting chuck- ers. The Cavaliers came from be- hind last spring to nose out'the Wol verines, 12-11. University of Richmond: The Spi- ders are a strong replacement for Duke on the southern schedule. They have flopped at the plate thus far, however, collecting 'only 10 hits in splitting two games with Ohio State, losing 5-1 and winning 8-7. Capt Ned Butcher hasn't lost a game in two seasons of varsity competition, which is some indication of Rich- mond's hurling strength. Charlie Miller, a fireball artist, is the4other flinger. The infield is leaky and weak-armed, with the exception of Walter (Sonny) Wholey, the best keystone sacker ever to play for Richmond. Wholey stole four bases against the Buckeyes and made it look easy. Dick Humbert, center- fielder, has a powerful arm and is a good hitter, and Charlie Woodard, junior third baseman, is the other bright spot in the infield. The Spiders need strengthening at short, first and behind the plate. Washington and Lee: Little news has come out of Lexington, where the Generals have been struggling through some lean baseball years. The few advance notices available indicate that Capt. Dick Smith has a somewhat stronger squad than usual this year. The scheduled tilt with Michigan on last year's southern jaunt was rained out. r - ai f $:j,., ..
