Loses To Illinois 7 Powerful Ohio Foe Promises Close Contest Wright, Sensational Soph Hurdler, Paces Buckeye Team AtFerry Field (Continued from Page 1) break the tape ahead of Michigan's Vrank McCarthy. Neil McIntyre, Michigan's other high hurdler, has recovered from a leg injury he re- ceived earlier in the year and should give Ohio State's George Hoeflinger a battle for third place. Ralph Hammond, the Buckeye sprint star, has twice finished ahead of the Wolverine ace, Al Piel, in in- door competition this year, but Piel has been running the century con- sistently under 10 seconds during the past few weeks and he turned in a very fast 9.8 seconds against Notre Dame last Saturday. It is not at all unlikely, then, that he might upset the pre-meet dope sheets and finish ahead of Hammond in both the 100 and the 220. Out For Record Ohio State will offer Wolverine Capt. Don Canham little opposition in the high jump but Canham has more than a mere victory here to strive for. The Michigan senior, in his last home competition, will be out to set' a new field record of 6 ft. 6 in., and if he is favored by the gods in powe with a warm sun, it is not at all unlikely that he will leave a new mark for his successors toshoot at. Michigan has most of the power in the quarter-mile and in the 8801 and will probably have winners in both events. Wolverines Bob Ufer and. Jack Leutritz are both favored over Ohio State's Bob Porter in the 440, and it will be just a question of which of them takes first and which takes second in the race. Half-Mile Duel Warren Breienbach, the fastest middle-distance man on the Michi- gan squad, has been moved from the quarter-mile race into the 880 by Wolverine Coach Ken Doherty, and although he will be pressed very hard by Buckeye Capt. Les Eisenhart, it is almost a certainty that, he will finish first. Eisenhart, however, will probably come back to win the mile run and gain back five points for the Buckeyes. Michigan's Charlie Decker and Ohio's Schmidt are rated approxim- ately even in the pole vault and it is a toss-up as to which will take first place, some of the .experts predict- ing the event will resutlt in a tie. Bob Segula, the powerful Wolverine sophomore, will offer Decker and Schmidt plenty of competition also, and may gain one of the top spots. Hook Is Favored Bob Hook, the husky blond weight- man on the Michigan squad, who has been putting the shot consistent- ly over 49 ft., is favored over any Ohio competition in this event, and Wolverine Johnny Wise should have little trouble in taking the javelin throw. In the relay Bob Ufer, Jack Leu- tritz, Bobby Barnard, and Al Thom- as will be pressed to the limit by the Ohioans' speedy baton-passing team. But even if the Buckeyes were to gain a first place in the mile re- lay, it is very likely that the Michi- gan team will have built up a suffi- cient margin of victory at this point. And so when the final results are announced over the loudspeakers at Ferry Field, the Wolverines will prob- ably be named the victors by a very few points. Gridmen End Sp ring Drills;Ne tters Face OS U Si AL RTI IO * Tianner Sports Program * Title Proving Grounds By HAL WILSON Daily Sports Editor F THE WEATHER MAN can see his way clear to throw Ann Arbor a little sun and some shirt-sleeve temperature today, Wolverine fans will be treated to one of the most crowded and attractive day-long athletic pro- grams in Michigan spring sports history. From the time when Head Coach Fritz Crisler leads off this morning's football clinic discussion before 2,500 high school lads and mentors until the finall cleat of spring grid practice is removed from the Stadium turf sometime around dusk, the athletic menu offers a sparkling array of inter- collegiate attractions. Jammed in between the opening and closing eventsf are golf and tennis matches with Ohio ;State, a crucial baseball game with Illinois, an exhibition of the passing and punting wizardry that helped boost Tom Harmon to stardom, and a big top-notch dual track clash between Michigan's defending outdoor Big Ten champions and Ohio State's threat- Golfers To Meet Invading Team Of Ohio State Previous Encounter Won By Michigan As Ohioans Seek Revenge Of Loss By LYONS HOWLAND Michigan's varsity golfers will be out for their sixth win of the year today when they tee off against Ohio State's invading forces on the ex- pansive University Golf Course. The boys from Ohio are really out for a win today. After keying up for a Michigan defeat all during spring practice, the veteran-bolstered Buck- eye squad was beaten by Coach Courtright's green team by a 14 to 10 score on the spring trip. The Michi- gan win was particularly notable be- cause Captain Fred Dannenfelser and sophomore/Ben Smith both outplayed Ohio State's Big Ten champion, Billy Gilbert. 'Blues' To Clash With "Whites'; Visitors Present StrongLineup (Continued from Page 1) White aggregation has not yet been selected. At the ends for the Blues will be Jack Petoskey and Phil Sharpe. Both have shown promise of developing into Big Ten calibre flankmen, and will be dangerous to the White of-i fense. Leo Cunningham and Chuck Gibbs will handle the tackle duties for.the Munn-coached aggregation. Cunning- ham, a junior, is experienced in var- sity competition, while Gibbs is a comparative newcomer to the Wolver- ine scene. Pregulman At Guard Big Merv Pregulman will team with the Maize and Blue star guard, Bob Kolesar, at that post. Pregulman, a freshman, was shifted from center during the spring training session and ening Buckeyes. IN ADDITION to the intense com- petitive action the day's slate should bring forth, Michigan's chances to sweep all four Big Ten spring sports titles will be much more clearly outlined by nightfall. No University in/the history of the Western Conference has ever ac- complished this feat. Some experts are booming the current Wolverine baseball, golf, tennis and track aggregations to turn in the sweep, although it will b'e a long, rocky road.

Today's test with the power-laden Bucks from Col- umbus will be a severe one, but it nevertheless carries more import- ance as a tuneup for next week's Conference fight than as a dual meet.

INDIVIDUAL DUELS will be the order of the day on the cinderpaths with{ the Buckeye Bullet, sophomore Bob Wright, appearing in and favored to take both hurdle events. An outstanding race is expected to develop when Ohio's Capt. Les Eisenhart and Michigan's senior veteran, Warren Breidenbach tangle over the half mile route. Other highlights are Wol- verine Al Piel and Buck Ralph Hammond in the dashes, Michigan Capt. Don Canham and Ohio's Andy Jones in the high jump, and the windup meeting of both mile relay teams. Line Coach Clarence Munn and Backfield Coach Earl Martineau, oppos- ing mentors in the "blue" versus "white" intra-squad tilt, are both sched-; uled to give demonstrations at the coaching clinic. Harmon will conclude the clinic with his demonstration of passing and punting techniques. Thursday's win over Northwestern's tennis team gives Michigan's netmen a close nod over Ohio State, but it will be close. The same holds true in the golf match. Coach Ray Courtright's high-riding linksmen snatched a victory from the same Buckeyes while completing their spring trip three weeks ago, and will thus rank as slight favorites. * * ~ * * We wouldn't know Porter's Cap if we met her hauling a milk wagon down State Street, but nevertheless she's our choice to cop the Preakness.7 swinging bunch. Playing in the first and second po- sitions for Michigan will be Captainj Dannenfelser and Ben Smith. These two boys have put up stiff oppo- sition all year, and will make plenty of trouble for the Buckeyes. In third and fourth Wolverine po- sitions are Johnny Barr and Bob Fife, with Dave Osler and Johnny Leidy finishing up the list of varsity doubles teams. In the singles matches Courtright expects to use several re- serve players, the number depending on the size of the traveling squad which Ohio is bringing. The match will start this morning at 8:15 a.m. at which time the doubles matches will take place. The teams will then adjourn for lunch to meet back at the course at 1 p.m. off the singles matches. to run Hieartbreak~er ILLINOIS A Bartley, ss ...,....... W ahl, cf ........... .

Elmer Madar and Johnny Allerdice will start at the Blue halfback slots, but Munn has a bevy of other fleet- footed backs who are sure to see action. Norm Call, Tippy- Lockhard, and Ray Sowers head this list. At quarterback Munn will start the ever dependable Ceithaml, while Don Boor, freshman fullback who has shown plenty of ability, will handle the line-bucking chores. Yearling Ends Over on the White team two year- lings, Don Long and Walt Freihofer will line up at the end posts. Both of these men are excellent pass re- ceivers and rate favorably with the Blue duo of Petoskey and Sharpe. The White will have a big edge at the tackles, with two veterans, Al Wistert and Bob Flora, scheduled to start. Wistert is one of the best tackles in the Big Ten and is sure to reap lots of anguish on the fast-stepping Blue backs. Martineau has elected Julius Franks and George Hildebrandt for the guard jobs. Franks, a freshman, has been one of the spring training standouts, while Hildebrandt, a sophomgore, is vastly improved. At the pivot post for the White outfit will be fiery Bob Ingalls, reg- ular varsity center. Ingalls is rated by many as the best center in the conference, and his great defensive ability will be tough on the Blue of- fense. Dawley At Guaid Fred Dawley will handle the signal- calling chores for the Whites, with Jim Grissen in reserve. Martineau will have Paul White and Don Robinson at the halves, two yearlings who can run and block with the best of them. Backing these men up are halfbacks Tom Kuzma and Bob Morrison, another speepy combination. Bob Westfall, Michigan captain, will be at his usual fullback post, and gives promise of ripping long gains through the B ue line. Ro nson, Morrison and Westfall will do the passing and kicking for the Whites, while Allerdice, Call and Boor will tend to those departments for the Blue aggregation. THE LINEUPS By DICK SIMON Michigan's tennis team will be shooting for its fifth straight Con- ference victory when it takes on Ohio State's strong undefeated net squad at 10:30 a.m. today on the Palmer Field courts. The Buckeyes have won seven straight matches this season, North- western falling to the tune of 5-4 yesterday on the Palmer Field courts., Ohio State might have made it 6-3 had their number three man, Jerry Rosenthal, not been suffering, with a bad leg. As it was Rosenthal and his partner had to default their doubles match. Coach Leroy Weirl intends to use the same team that defeated North- western last Thursday. Capt. Jim To- bin will hold down the number oneII spot and will face Dick McFarland. McFarland put up a good fight yes- terday before he was beaten by Sey- mour Greenberg of Northwestern and should make the going tough for the Wolverine leader., Lewis Vs. Hammett The Buckeye's'leader, John Lewis, lost a heartbreaker yesterday to Gene Richards,dWildcat captain, and will be out today to defeat Lawton Ham- mett in the second singles match. From the looks of things Jim Porter will be in for another hard struggle, when he faces Rosenthal, diminutive Ohio Sitate seni6r, in the number three spot. The stocky Buckeye had a bad leg in his match with North- western's Harrie Hall yesterday, but managed to eke out a three set vic- tory. Porter also won a three setI triumnph over Hall on Thursday. In the fourth singles battle, Michi- gan's Wayne Stille will face Vic Fili- mon, who plays a consistent game. Tom Gamon, Wolverine five man, will match strokes with John Janes while Alden Johnson will battle Dick Cole, the only sophomore on the Ohio State team in the last singles match. First Doubles Match Michigan's first doubles team of Tobin and Hammett will be out to show McFarland and Filimanothat their defeat at the hands of Green- berg and Richards will not be re- peated. The Buckeye duo lost a three set match to the Wildcat pair yester- day. Porter and Stille will again team to formthe second doubles duo which will battle with Lewis and Rosen- thal. The last match of the morning will be the one between the combination of Howie Bacon and Gamon and Janes and Cole.

He had no difficulty'in getting the first two strikes by the batters but the next pitch would usually put him in trouble. The Illini scored once in the fifth when Paul Milosevich hammered a triple , to deep left field and cane home when Mike Sofiak let the throw from the outfield get by him. The vis- itors picked up another tally in the sixth and Grant crossed the plate with the winning run in the seventh, inning when Liz Astroth singled to left. Harms Cuts Hand Ray Fisher received two bad scares during the ball game, one When John Drish, Illini right fielder foul ticked a ball off George. Harms' finger. A painful cut resulted but the plucky Wolverine backstop refused to retire from the game and stayed in until the ninth when he was lifted for a pinch batter. The second scare was when Nelson's collided with Holman in centerfield going after a ground ball. It was thought for a moment that Whitey had a broken collar bone but fur- ther examination revealed that it was only a bruise. It was nip and tuck all the way, with,. Michigan giving the local fans thrills up to the very end. In the ninth after two were out, with all the stands on their feet ready to go home, Wayne Christenson got to first when Boyd Bartley, Illini shortstop, threw an easy ground ball over the first baseman's head. Muir Replaces Harms It was George Harms' turn to bat but the cut on his hand kept him from taking' a free swing at the plate so Fisher lifted him for Neil Muir-who worked Grant for a pass. The stands were clamoring for Cliff Wise to win his own ball game but theibest the game sophomore could do was to ground to the pitcher, ending the ball game. Capt. Bill Steppon was in the stands watching his teammates go down to defeat. Bill is walking around on crutches and in all probability won't see action for a week or so. This loss does not drop Michigan from her first place position in Big Ten standings, but unless the Wol- verines win today's game their chances for the championship will be considerably lessened.
