the season, by giving the Irish a taste
of the mighty Wolverine power.
Fisher will send little Mase Gould
to the mound for Michigan. This
marks the first time this season that
the left hander has been used in a
starting role. Gould has displayed
some fine relief hurling and has al-
ready won four games for the Var-
sity.
The Irish. will start Subby Nowicki,
the little guy who held Michigan to
three scattered hits when he was in
Ann Arbor earlier in the season. ,
Mike Sofiak, who injured his hip
sliding into second base during the
Indiana game last Saturday, is still
limping and may not play the whole
game.
Michigan is still without the serv-
ices of their star second baseman,
Bill Steppon. The Wolverine captain
has been on the sidelines for the past
several weeks with an infected foot
and latest reports are that he will be
out of the lineup for the Purdue
series this weekend.
By winning from Indiana Satur-
day the Wolverines put the Hoosiers1
out of the Conference title race. The
Illini remained in second place in
the Big Ten standings with seven
wins and four losses, despite Ohio
State's victory over them Saturday.
Iowa and Wisconsin have only
three defeats against them so far this
year and are still contenders for the
Conference championship. The two
teams. meet each other on May 30
and 31.,
If Michigan is able to gain a split!
in its, remaining Big Ten games it
will at least be sure of a share of
the Conference crown. Following the
Purdue series this weekend, the Var-
sity will meet Northwestern at Ev-
anston next week end.

match, Alden Johnson in the second
spot, and Jim Porter, playing for

NATIONAL LEAGUE
the first time in nine days, in the
first doubles battle with Tobin.
The most hotly contested match
of the day was between the doubles
team of Roy Bradley and Johnsont
and Normal's Walt Lepisto and Hal
Schwartz. The Wolverine netters
won the first set handily, 6-1, and
took a commanding 5-3 lead in the
second before the Huron players be-
gan to make their lobs click. Lepisto
and Schwartz won that set, 7-5, andI
went on to win the third and final
one, 6-4, in a set which saw the score
change hands three times. -
Tobin Whips Mastromarco
Tobin's service was much too effec-
tive for Vic Mastromarco, Huron
number one man, and the Wolverine
leader emerged with a 6-2, 6-0, tri-
umph, winning the last 11 games.
Johnson had little trouble defeat-
ing Fritz Bennetts, 6-1, 8-6, although
he had to come from behind in the
second set to win. Roy Bradley, play-
ing the number three spot, scored
an easy decision over Chuck Frog-I
ner, Normal senior, 6-0, 16-2.
After losing the first set to George
Yellin, battling in the four spot for
the Ypsi lads, Jim Bourquin managed
to eke out a 5-7, 6-2, 6-4 victory.
Michigan lost the last two singles
matches, but not before Gerry Schaf-
lander and Maynard Cohen put up
a terrific struggle. Playing in the
fifth position, Schaflander pushed his
opponent, Lepisto, to the limit before
bowing,- .7-5, 6-4. Cohen made
Schwartz go three sets before losing,
4-6, 6-3, 6-4.
Varsity To Meet Toledo
Tobin and Porter lost only five
points in the first set after Mastro-
marco and Bennetts had made the
score 1-all, in winning 6-1, 6-4. Port-
er looked -good as he made most of
his overhand drives score points.
In the other doubles match, Schaf-
lander and Bourquin wasted little
time in downing Yellin and Frogner,
6-3, 6-4. Both Michigan men con-
sistently rushed the net for numer-
ous placement shots.
Today the Wolverines travel to
Toledo- to meet the netters from the
University of Toledo. The squad will
leave Ann Arbor at 1 p.m.

anchoring the half-mile relay team
to a state title.
Al was regarded as valuable mater-
ial during his freshman year at Mich-
] gan. He set a new mark in the 330-
yard dash, a strictly yearling event.
In his sophomore year, Piel gave
some indication of what he was to
do when he defeated Northwestern's
Myron Piker in a trial heat at the
Big Ten indoor meet. Piker came
back to win the finals the next year,
however, and Al had to be content
with a place in the event.
This year, during the indoor sea-
son, Piel competed in the 60-yard
dash but, since he is not an especially
fast starter, failed to win any races
except in dual meets. He turned in
several good performances, however,
his best coming at the Butler Relays
where he pushed Pittsburgh's star
sprinter, Bill Carter, to a tie for the
world's record in the event.
r At the Chicago Relays in March,
Piel took a second in the Olympic
Sprint Series, consisting of three
dashes, one each of 40, 50 and 60
yards. He placed' in the 60 at the
Conference indoor meet at Lafayette,
Ind.
Piel hit his stride when the outdoor
season got under way, taking first
in the 100 and the 220 at. Notre
Dame with times of 9.8 and 21.4 re-
spectively. In the Ohio State dual
meet, Piel took a third in -the cen-
tury and a first in the longer dash.
In the Big Ten outdoor meet, held
last Saturday at Minneapolis, the
new Wolverine leader finished third
in the 220 but was nosed out in the
100 in a photo finish.
Piel will replace Don Canham,
Varsity high-jumper, as captain of
the track team. He is a member of
Sigma Chi Fraternity and was re-
cently elected president of that or-
ganization.

BATTING AVERAGES
Hoosiers'Brilliant Track Stars
OutshinIe Michigan s Balance,
(0'
By BOB STAHL
DIRT FROM THE CINDER
TRACK: Too much credit cannot be
' 1.1
given the individual stars of the
Indiana track team in their brilliant
48-43 victory over a favored Michi-
gan team in the Big Ten Outdoor
meet held last Saturday in Minne-
sota's Memorial Stadium.
The Wolverines became pre-meet
favorites when they qualified 19
men in Friday's preliminaries, six!
more than Indiana had even
brought to the meet. This factor
sent Michigan stock soaring to the
skies in every newspaper in Minn-
eapolis.
The Hoosiers had only seven men
who placed in the finals, but of
these, Campbell Kane and Archie
Harris took double first-place wins
and the rest placed either first or
second in the events in which Indi-
ana scored . . . Campbell Kane, the
sensational Hoosier middle-distance
star, really accomplished something
bordering on the superhuman when,
he won the mile run and 60 minutes
later cameback to win by a stride
over Michigan's Warren Breiden-
bach in the 880, setting a new Big
Ten record of 1:51.3.
Breidenbach, incidentally, ran
the best race of his career in that
half-mile ... Starting off in high
gear and never letting up on his
stride until he crossed the finish
line, the speedy Wolverine paced
the field all the way, being passed
by Kane less than a step from the
tape . . . It was Breidenbach who
forced Kane to chalk up a new
record in the 880 because the
Michigap star turned in a time
one-tenth of a second better than
that with which he broke the all-
time Michigan varsity record for
the half-mile in the Buckeye meet
two weeks ago. '
Wolverine Capt. Don Canham dis-
played one of the finest examples of
an old Michigan athletic prerequi-
site ever seen on a track field-what
those not in the know call "intes-
tinal fortitude" . . . Bruising his al-
ready-injured heel in a second at-
tempt to go over the high-jump bar
at the height which ultimately won
the event, Canham hobbled over to
the side-lines with a groan, bemoan-
ing the fact that his ankle would not
permit him to try again.
However, after discovering that
if he and Wes Allen placed first
and second, Miehigan might have
a chance for victory, the coura-
geous Canham rose resolutely to
his feet and limped over to the
take-off run, determined to make
one last try-and this time he
cleared the bar . . . But plagued
by the same evil fate that had been
working against the Wolverines
throughout the meet, Allen's best
jump was a tie for fifth and Can-
ham's brave efforts gave him only
a four-way tie 'for first place, so
all his striving was in vain.
Indiana had too many stars who
outshone even their own previous
brilliance . . . With first and second
places in three events, the Hoosiers
rolled up enough points in the open-
ing minutes of the meet to get out
in front of the Wolverines and stay
there, giving them their first Big
Ten outdoor track crown since 1936.
Harmon Says Draft
Status Is Nothing New
Tom Harmon, one of several half-
backs on the Michigan football team
last fall, had little to say yesterday
when questioned about a rumor that
he was going to shoulder a gun for
Uncle Sam this summer instead of
traveling to Hollywood to become a
cinema star.
"It's nothing new," Harmon com-
mented, "I've known it for several
weeks. It's all up to them from
now on."
The Wolverine grid star signed a
contract after football season last
fall calling for him to make a movie
entitled "Harmon of Michigan." Now
it appears that this venture will have
to be a sequel to, a real life story en-
titled "Football Star In Khaki or In
The Trenches With Tom."
Harmon's Lake County, Ind., draft
board has deferred him until July
1 but has intimated that the grid
star will be in the army after that
date unless he enrolls in summer
school at Michigan.
Golfers Defeat
Wildcats 18-9
Courtright's Team Chalks
Up Fifth Big Ten Win
(Special to The Daily)
EVANSTON, Ill., May 19.-Sweep-
ing six out of a total of nine matches,
Michigan's varsity golfers doubled a
mediocre Northwestern team's score,
18 to 9, here today to win their fifth
Big Ten victory of the season.
Playing against a Wildcat squad
bolstered by only two returning vet-
erans, Coach Ray Courtright's boys
ended up the morning's best ball
matches on the wrong end of a 6 to 3
score.
It was in the singles matches, how-
ever, that Michigan picked up its wits
and won, Captain Fred Dannenfelser,
Ben Smith, Johnny Barr, Bob Fife,
and Dave Osler all taking their
matches in easy fashion.
