Michigan's 1p-ranking sprinters, Al Thomas and Al Piel, ran their own contest in the dashes. Thomas, fac- ing into a strong quarter-wind, caused a mild flurry by breaking the tape ahead of Piel and Buckeye Ralph Hammgond in the 100 yard dash, turn- ing in a time of 10 seconds flat. Piel came back to win the 220, with Ifammond taking second in this event fnd Thomas placing third. With the Wolverines sweeping all but one of the six field events, they -.iad nothing to worry about, as the two teams led off in the final event 4f the day, the feature mile relay, but the '"Four Horsemen" of the Michi- gan squad, Jack Leutritz, Bob Ufer, Bobby Barnard, and Al Thomas didn't seem to know this. Leutritz built up a five yard lead for Ufer on the first leg, and Ufer and "Barnard increased the lead with Thomas finishing at least 15 yards ahead of Ohio State's Hammond. 1 And so with another victory over the Bucks from Ohio State under their belts, Michigan will be getting ready now to carry its power into the Big Ten meet next weekend at Min- neapolis. Merv Preglman Win Aftnual Chicago Alumni Football Award R Mervin Pregulman, freshman guard from Lansing, was named yesterday as the 1941 winner of the University of Michigan Club of Chicago Award. ' The award was presented to Pregul- man late yesterday morning in Yost Field House by Meyer Morton, Mich- igan alumnus and prominent Big Ten official, to mark the end of the an- nual High School Coaches Clinic. Some 2500 people were on hand to witness the presentation. An all-around athlete, Merv was deserving of the honor betowed upon him. He won his freshman numerals here at Michigan in both football and basketball, and is regarded as an The ucke yes Take A Sound Trouncing [ outstanding cage prospect as well as a. future Wolverine gridiron luminary. In his high school days Pregulman compiled an enviable record. Playing for ,Lansing Central High School, he was a member of the football team, basketball squad and track aggrega- tion. Big Merv graduated from Lansing' Central in 1940 after winning three letters in football, three in basket- ball, and two in track. In 1939 he was the unanimous choice of the coaches for the center post on the mythical All State eleven, as well as receiving, honorable mention on the All State' basketball outfit and placing third' in the shotput in the state Class A meet. As a freshman last fall Pregulman' played at his familiar pivot post on Wally Weber's yearling aggregation,' but this spring Coach Fritz Crisler shifted him to a guard spot where his performance has been outstand- ing. The well-built freshman, 220 pounds, 6 feet, 2 inches, is nine- teen years old, a member of Sigma Alpha Mu fraternity, and enrolled in1 the Lit schol. He plans to enter the1 School of Business Administration.1 Many factors are taken into con- sideration by the Wolverine coach-r ing staff before they select the ulti- mate winner of the Chicago Alumni Trophy. Attendance, attitude, varsity potentialities, and improvement dur-# ing the spring drills all enter into the selection. Pregulman filled the bill in all departments.r Last year the award was won by 1 Whites Defeat Blues In Final Practice Game Robinson Leads Victors As Whites Win Game In Last Quarter, 14-7 By BUD HENDEL In a belated last quarter attack, a fighting White team surged through a fast-tiring Blue aggregation to win the annual intrasquad football game, 14 to 7, and bring the spring train- ing grind to a close before some 5,000 pigskin fans at the Stadium yes- terday. Led by the 160 pound freshman triple threat halfback, Don Robinson, the White outfit saw the 7-0 lead, which they had amassed in the open- ing minutes of the tilt, tied up in the second quarter, and unleashed an assault in the last three minutes to capture the contest on a touch- down by Tom Kuzma. Freihofer Scores The'first touchdown came scarcely a minute after tackle Al Wistert kicked off for the Whites and recov- ered George Ceithaml's fumble on the Blue 28 yard line. After Bob Westfall made a first down on the 15 in two plays, Robinson on a fast-breaking play, tossed a touchdown pass to Walt Freihofer. Wistert's extra point at- tempt was good, and the Whites led, 7-0. Then the Blue team took command of the situation. After an exchange of punts by Johnny Allerdice and Robinson, the Blues, spearheaded by fullback Don Boor and halfback Norm Call, drove deep into White territory only to have it die when center Bob Ingalls intercepted Call's pass on the White 20. But the Blues weren't to be denied. After Robinson punted out of bounds on the Blue 32, they started their touchdown drive. Allerdice passed to Tippy Lockard and then .]ack Pe- toskey to advance the ball to the White 30 yard marker. Call replaced Allerdice in the Blue backfield, and after the Blues were awarded the ball on the White 18 due to pass interference, he carried the1 pigskin to the four yard stripe. Two1 plays later Call scored on a reverse, spinner from Boor. Bob Kolesar made1 the extra point and the score stood at< 7-7. Strong Blue Attack Until the last three minutes of the fourth quarter, the Blue aggregationl dominated the play. Sparked by the blocking of Ceithaml, George Gibbs, Merv Pregulman, and Kolesar, the1 backs, Elmer Madar, Allerdice, BoorI and Call passed and ran time afterI time far into the White domain, only to be stopped by the fast charging White line. And just when it looked as if the battle would end in a tie, the Whitesr broke loose with their furious as- sault. Robinson passed to Paul White and Don Long to place the ball on the Blue 32. Then the durable Robinson and Austin Miller carried it to the 24. Paul White took it to the 19 and was injured on the play, being re- placed by Tom Kuzma. After Miller advanced to the 16, gan again took the lead and Major League Standings AMERICAN LEAGUE (Continued from Page 1) tally across in the second inning on a walk to Ruehle and a double by Cartmill who played left field in place of the injured Whitey Holman. The lead was short-lived, however, since the Illini came back in the third to score twice on a walk to Brewer, an error by Sofiak and singles by Wahl and Milosevich. Davey Nelson, Wolverine centerfielder, cut off an- other possible run by throwing Wahl out at third as he attempted to take two bases on Milosevich's single.

Christenson singled after .two were out and then Wake- field hit his homer into the tennis courts in dead center field. After two were out in the fifth, Sofiak drew a pass. The fourth ball was a wild pitch and Mike ran all the way to second, sliding in under a poor throw by William (Armless Bill) Brewer. Mike then stole third, Bessone leaping high to prevent Brewer's throw from going into left field, and scored on Wakefield's single center. The Wolverines made three more in the sixth, an inning in which al- most everything happened. In this frame, the spectators were treated to two errors, two walks, a stolen base, a bunt single by Cartmill and, need we add, a bad throw by Brewer. When the dust had cleared, Drish had moved from the mound to right field, Brewer was in left where he wouldn't get so many chaces to handle the ball, Campbell was pitching, Chet Ziemba was catching and Michigan had three more runs. Yesterday's win brought the Michi- gan record to five wins and one loss and kept the Wolverines on top of the Big Ten.

The first singles battle of ,the day found Tobin pitted against McFar- land, and the Michigan senior kept hammering away at the net until he walked off the court with a 6-3, 6-1 triumph. Hammett, playing in his regular number two spot, looked like his us- ual self as he conquered the carrot- topped Lewis in straight sets, 6-4, 6-1. The Wolverine junior had the Buckeye player 5-0 in games in the second set and match point coming up when Lewis 'broke through and took the game to keep Hammett from .winning a love set. In the fourth singles match of the day, Stille rushed the net whenever he needed points and earned him- self a 6-4, 6-3 victory over the Buck- eyes' Filimon. After being behind 4-2 in the first set of his singles match with John Janes, Ohio State senior, Tom Gamon steadied himself and came out on the long end of a 7-5, 6-1 decision. The stocky Michigan player kept his op- ponent at bay by making well-placed shots to the baseline. In a grueling three set match, A- den Johnson eked out a 4-6, 6-1, 6-4 victory over Dick Cole, promising young Buckeye sophomore, in the last singles match of the day. It was a see-saw affair throughout with Johnson breaking through his op- ponent's service to win the last game and the match. Howie Bacon teamed with Gamon to form the last doubles duo and they won a three set triumph over Janes and Cole, 5-7, 6-3, 6-4. This match was marred by numerous errorson the part of both sides, but the base- line play of the Michigan men proved effective enough to bring victory. Play around but don't for~et your Fli ure!

Taking their thircr straight confer- ence triumph of the year, the Wol- verines won seven out of nine matches, sunk some 118 par holes, and got away with 17 birdies to beat the Buckeyes for the second time this season. The match took on an unusual aspect when two surprising things happeped. First one was lanky Ben Smith's second win this season over Ohio State's prized possession, Big Ten champion Billy Gilbert. Smith outplayed the conference champ -by three strokes when he blazed around the course in a one-under-par 71 to take medal honors for the day. The good looking sophomore from Florida caused uncontrollable thoughts of a possible conference championship to rise up in the minds of his spec- tators as they watched his smooth- swinging feats. The other unusual occurrence of the match almost proved disastrous to the Ohio State squad when John- ny Steckel keeled out cold at the turn of the morning's doubles match- es. The Buckeye number-three man gamely came back from the doctor in the afternoon to play out his part Treat Mother in the singles matches, losing to Johnny Barr, 2 to 1. Wolverine gems for the day were many. Temperamental flash Dave Os- ler's sparkling 74 in the singles proved his value to any championship team. 'Curly Locks' Bob Fife really, got his putter clicking for the first time this season and blazed out a 75 for the 18. Michigan's two Johnnies, Barr and Leidy, were both in an easy-swinging mood and had no trouble taking their doubles game with a 76 and 77 re- spectively. Captain Fred Dannenfelser had an off-day with the putter and did not equal his early-season feat of out- playing Billy Gilbert. The likeable Wolverine leader garnered a 77 and 82 for his day's efforts. Cliff James, playing actively in his first match this season went out and took 21/2 points from his opponent, and won his first letter emblem. SUMMARIES Singles: Smith (M) defeated Gil- bert (O), 3-0; Dannenfelser (M) de- feated Krisco (0), 2V2-/2; Barr (M) defeated Steckel (0), 2-1; Osler (M) defeated Simione (0), 3-0; Fife (M) defeated Montonaro 3-0; James (M) defeated Sulser (0), 212-/2.
