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. PROBABLE LINEUPj Al Piel Elected Track Captain For '42 Season -4) Netters Regain Winning Form, In Triumph Over Normal, 6-3 By DICK SIMON After losing to Notre Dame and Western State last week, Michigan's net team jumped rght back into the victory column yesterday by beating Michigan Normal, 6-3, on the Ferry Field courts. Coach Leroy Weir gave most of his regulars a day of rest, using only Capt. Jim Tobin in the first singles match, Alden Johnson in the second spot, and Jim Porter, playing for Major League Standings AMERICAN LEAGUE Cleveland ....... . Chicago........ Detroit.........

Today's Games Detroit at Boston St. Louis at New York Chicago at Washington Cleveland at Philadelphia -. 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. THE SUMMARIES Singles: Tobin (M) defeated Mas- tromarco, 6-2, 6-0; Johnson (M) de- feated Bennetts, .6-1, 8-6; Bradley (M) defeated Frogner, 6-0, 6-2; Bour- quin (M) defeated Yellin, 5-7, 6-2, 6-4; Lepisto (MN) defeated Schaf- lander, 7-5, 6-4; Schwartz (MN) de-f feated, Cohen, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4.

Star Sprinter Is Consistent Po*int Getter Al Replaces Don Canham; t Turned In Fine Times During Outdoor Season (Continued from Page 1) 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. Tigers Beat Red Sox, 4-2 BOSTON, May 19.-4P)-Right- hander Johnny Gorsica sinker-balled the Boston Red Sox into submission today, limiting the Hose to four hits while the Detroit Tigers went on to win their fifth straight victory, 4-2, MICHIGAN 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. SUMMARIES Singles matches: Smith (M) 71, de- feated Haskell (N) 78, 3-0; Dannen- felser (M) 78, defeated Abrahams (N) 81. 3-0; Barr (M) 79, defeated Bar- rett 82, 3-0; Fife (M) 80, defeated Haywood (N) 82, 21/2-'/2; Osler (M) 80 defeated Beggs (N) 84, 21/2-/2; Panko (N) 77 defeated Leidy (M) 79, 2-1; Doubles Matches: Haskell-Barrett (N) defeated Dannenfelser-Smith, 3-0; Abrahams-Beggs (N) defeated Barr- Leidy (M), 2-1; Fife-Osler (M) defeated Panko-Haywood (N),2-1. 1,t St. Louis .......
