Dick Erdlitz. Erdlitz came across the
plate when Ed Hirsch hit a long fly
to Paul White in right. In the sec-
ond the Wildcats added their last
run on two hits and a sacrifice. That
was all for Northwestern.
Michigan had a great chance to
pile up some runs in the first frame
when Davey Nelson, Don Holman
and Don Robinson all singled to load
the bags with nobody out. After
Bud Chamberlain had popped out,
Bob Stenberg grounded out to first
baseman Russ Wendland with Nel-
son scoring on the play and White
ended the inning.
The Varsity tied the score in the
third when Holman beat out a bunt
and went to second when pitcher
Frank Hoblick threw wild to first.
Robinson followed with his second
hit, but "Whitey" was thrown out
at the plate. "Robby" then stole
third and came in on Chamberlain's
long fly to the outfield.
Holman scored Michigan's win-
ning margin in the fifth when he
walked, stole second and crossed the
plate when Chamberlain singled over
third base to make the score, 3-2,
in favor of the Varsity.
White and Bill Cartmill collabor-
ated on a tricky play in the eighth
to score two more tallies. The Wol-
verine rightfielder singled to right
and went to third when the "Wheel"
followed with a hit.
On the fourth pitch to Capt.
Nice Pitching, 'Pro'
Ueorge Harms, Bill started for sec-
ond, but he found himself caught. He
pulled up short as the Purple infield-
ers tried to run him down, but Bill

line a pounding. Bob seems to be
the Blue answer to the opposition line
strength.
Tackle is a question on both sides.
Whites Johnny Greene and Bill Pri-
tula are more experienced than Ray,
Sowers and Bill Baldwin, the Blues
tackles, but Ray and Bill are more
or less unknown quantities, and quite
possible will turn out many a head-
ache for the Whites.
Wiese Vs. Lund
Key position still appears to be the
fullback slot, where the Blues areI
the stronger, with Wiese stacked up
against Detroiter Don Lund. How-
ever, Lund will have Bob Vernier, the
best quarterback, leading the way,
and Vernier may make the differ-
ence.
Fastest set of backs on either team
is the combination of Warren Yaap
and Chuck Avery, the wingbacks
working on the White outfit. With
Bob Chappius at tailback, these two
make a potent backfield.
Chappius will have plenty of
chance to display his passing talents;
it may rest upon him to bring vic-
tory to the Whites if the game is
close. And he will have a pair of
capable ends to toss at; Jack Kar-
wales and Rudy Smeja will be the
flankers for the Whites.
Madar, Sharpe At Ends
Elmer Madar and Phil Sharpe will
take care of the end slots for the
Blues, and while they are not as good
defensively, they have shown up as
the best pass receivers on the field,
so if Pat Keefe, their hurler, should
decide to throw the ball it might
well be the deciding factor.
The only sure thing about the game
is that it will be close. The Blues
have the most scoring punch, but in
return the Whites have the defensive
power. It is a game in which any-
thing can happen.

Big Ten title, Michigan's tennis team
defeated a weakened Northwesternj
squad, 7-2, here today. The Wildcats
were without three of their regular
players, Seymour Greenberg, Harris
Hall and Don Burst.
Bobby Jake, regular number two
man for the Purple, was an able sub-
stitute for Greenberg, pacing the
Wildcats to both of their victories.
In the number one singles play he
defeated Michigan's co-captain, Lawt
Hammett with unexpected ease, 6-0,
6-3, and he teamed with Bob Good-
kind to trounce Hammett and Wayne
Stille in the one doubles match, 6-1,
6-3.
Porter Comes From Behind
The Wolverines took all the other
matches with the loss of only one
set. In the number two singles match
Jim Porter had to come from behind
to edge out Goodkind, 3-6, 6-1, 7-5.
Wayne Stille, however, had little
trouble staying undefeated in con-
ference play, trouncing Wildcat Don
Skinrood, 6-0, 6-3.
Gerry Schaflander continued his
winning ways at the expense of Bob
Gordon, defeating his Northwestern
opponent, 7-5, 6-4, in the fourth
bracket. In the fifth ranking match
Tom Gamon made his bid for a seed-
ing in the Big Ten matches next week
by outlasting the Purple's Mary
Dougherty, 10-8,6-3. He also clicked
with Porter in the second doubles,
swamping Skinrood and Dougherty,
6-0, 6-2.
Johnson's Arm Sore
Although bothered by a sore arm,
Jinx Johnson continued to show him-
self the best in his class by wading
through Wildcat Dick Boch, 6-0, 6-3.
Then he came back to team up with
Schaflander in the number three
doubles and they wasted little time
in running through Northwestern's
duo of Boch and Gordon, 6-0, 6-3.
The Wolverine netters will take on
the Buckeyes of Ohio State here to-
morrow in their last conference dual
meet. Ohio State beat Northwestern

through a 21.3-second 220 last Sat-
urday aided by a wind.
Not to be overshadowed is Ohio
State's ace timber topper, Bob
Wright, an almost sure bet in the 120-
yard high hurdles and the 220-yard
lows. Frank McCarthy who injured
his leg against Illinois, has recovered
sufficiently to compete. Bud Byerly
stands as 4 threat to Wright on the
strength of his 14.9-second flight
against Illinois. Al Thomas is
Wright's chief opposition in the lows.
Buckeye Captain Hammond has a
big edge in the 100-yard dash on
the strength of his 9.6-second record
run against Indiana. (Thomas and
Piel should pick up points for the
Maize and Blue here.)
With Buel Morley out of the mile
relay quartet, Ohio State's crack out-
fit is favored. The Buckeyes' best
outdoor mark of 3:15.3 is far better
than any turned in by a Wolverine
quartet this season. (Michigan boasts
a 3:21 indoors.)
Michigan's Dave Matthews is
slated for victory in the 880-yard
dash, while the mile and two-mile
races offer no outstanding perform-
ers.
The Buckeyes are powerful in the
field, especially in the high jump
where George Hoeflinger has cleared
6 ft. 412 in.
Wolverine fans will watch the pole
vault with more than usual interest
as Tom Kuzma, star halfback of the
Michigan eleven last fall, will be com-
peting in Big Ten track competition
for the first time. Ohio State has an
edge in the broad jump, shot.put and
discus.
Plan * ijjmer' kM's
Those who have wondering what
is going to happen to the' Intramural
Department in view of the proposed
Physical Training program should
be interested in knowing that it is
going to be in operation this sum-
mer.
The Intramural plans are now be-
ing formulated, and an enlarged pro-
gram will undoubtedly be offered to
all University of Michigan students
on a competitive basis. Intramural
sports will be in no way connected
with the proposed Physical Training,
and they will be completely volun-
tary.

Major League Standings
the plan which is being most promin-
ently mentioned calls for compulsory
physical training four-and-a-half
hours a week for practically every
male student on the campus. It in-
cludes all those who are enlisted in
the reserve of either the Army and
Navy and all those who have regis-
tered for selective service.
Another proposal would release all
graduate students from the rigors of
gy mnastics and calisthenics. Anoth-
er would go further and only take
men according to the classification
they have received in the draft. And
still another proposition would make
participation voluntary.
Chances are, however, that the
final program will include none of
these alternate proposals. If it
Roes, it will defeat its primaIry pur-
pose-making men fit for the rigors
of military life. The University
desires to cooperate with the Army
and Navy, and the Army and
Navy are asking that men report
physically fit to their induction
centers. If Michigan men are to
comply with this request, all Mich-
igan nice must take an active part
in the physical hardening pro-
gram.
JROM THE SPORTS angle, this
proposal will present an ideal
chance for athletics to justify their
existence.
Sports such as swimming, soccer,
when he will be stationed at another
locality.
It is this consideration that may
lead Crisler to drop any plans he
might have entertained about en-
tering the Navy service. In the
eyes of many, the presence of a
competent man at the head of the
University's vast proposed program
is far more essential to the war
effort than a good Naval football
team, although the latter does have'
value as a morale builder and an
aid in Naval enlistments.
Rumor and speculation have run
wild, saying that Crisler is certain
to leave and even falsifying his time
of detarture. The student body wants
him to remain here. Few men are
as capable as lie, and his service to
the University has been of untold
value. And it will be even greater
under the new physical hardening
set-up.-

.y BUD LOW
The Wolverine linksairn face
Northwestern's Wildcats on the Uni-
versity ('oUir5c today in the first home
m of fhe current campaign. The
Varsity will go into the contest in
an underdog role for Coach Ted Pay-
seur's Purple squad is one of the
strongest, if not the strongest team
in the Conference this year.
The biggest question mark for
Michigan is whether or not Ben
Smith will be able to play. He will
definitely not play in the morning
best ball matches, and there is still
some doubt as to his being in
the number one singles position in
the afternoon. Rather than take
any chances on further injuring
Smith's badly bruised shoulder, Coach
Ray Courtright may not let the Wol-
verine ace play.
Even though this is the toughest
contest the Michigan golfers will
have all season, the Conference meet
is only a week and a half away and
it would be foolish for Ben to play
today and injure his shoulder more
so as to ruin his chances for the
individual crown.
Smith, however, is determined to
Ishoot in) the sinle mtchles if it is
at all possible. Yesterday he was
out on the practice green pitching a
few short shots with his niblick, but
the Wolverine could only take a
three-quarter swing because of the
heavy tape that holds his pulled
muscle in place.
Only one thing is certain about
the Michigan team: Courtright is
going to try and play each man who
went on the trip last week, plus let-
termen Bob Fife and Dave Osler. A
good guess is that Chan Simonds,
Bill Stewart, Captain John Leidy,
Fife and Osler will shoot in the
morning matches-four of them in
the bestbal and the fifth in tIie
lone singles tilt. In the afternoon
singles contests it is anybody's guess
as to who will play, and where.
Coach Ted Payseur of Northwest-
ern has brought two of last, year's
lettermen and three exceptional
sophomores for the five-man match,
Heading the list are Captain Burt
Abrahms, a junior, and senior Dick
Haskell, who was captain of the team
last year when they placed sixth in
the National Collegiates.
Sparkplug of the squad is new-
comer Johnny Stoltz, who had the
low medal score with a 70 against
Iowa on Monday.
