Beat Bru 0 2AwO in 71 r C7 ins, , Ga * Title By JO ANN PETERSON Facing a tested and tried group of Iowa, baseball players, coach Ray Fisher's inexperienced squad takes to the field this afternoon at Iowa City, in the Big Ten opener for both teams., Although the Michigan nine has had comparatively little opportunity for outdoor practice, having been hampered by the cold weather and muddy field, the team has rounded into shape during the past week, showing, a prowess both in the in- field and outfield that promises no good for opposing batters. With a strong outfield consisting of Don Lund, Paul White and Bob Wiese, Who are not only potent in the field- ing slots but are going to be counted on to provide batting strength, coach Fisher's possibility for turning out a team comparable to last year's, is very good. Batting Uncertain Batting is the one respect in which the squad has been unable to find itself as yet, having been able in practice games, to make only scat- tered hits, and these with no regu- larity. Fisher seems to have no con- sistent hitter this year, although it is expected that Paul White, who was among the league leaders last year, will return to his old form when he has had more opportunity. Iowa will face a Michigan nine which is made up almost entirely of newcomers, or non-letter winners,; while the Iowa team is composed of seven previous lettermen, one squad- nan of last year and a sophomore. Two of the Iowa lettermen are Cap- tain Harold Lind, right field, and Tom Farmer, second base, who were members of the squad which last year held the Big Ten champion- ship jointly with Michigan. Fresh, Sophs on Nine On the other hand the Michigan nine has on it five sophomores and at least one freshman, Dick Walter- house, who will hold down first base. It is possible that Bob Nussbaumer, left fielder and a potential hitter of great power, may also see action dur- ing the game. Key to the Michigan strength will be the three man pitch- ing staff which remains intact from last year. Pro Boim, colorful junior, who was responsible for several of last sea- son's most successful games, will take the mound in the encounter this afternoon, and tomorrow's game will probably find Mickey Fishman pitch- ing. Although it is difficult to predict the outcome of today's gamendue to the fact that Iowa did not play Michigan last year, the probability is, that with both teams conceded a strong chance to retain the title again this year, it will not be a dull game to watch.

The problem, not a serious one, will be solved only after the Michi- gan coach has accustomed his men to the outdoor wind and air. And this is not expefted for another two weeks of intensive practice. Doherty's Problem Here's the problem. Doherty is faced with the task of deciding in which of the six relays at the Penn meet he will enter his best runners, and whether or not he will concen- trate them in a few events or work toward average strength in all races. The make-up of the two-mile team is, of course, not a problem. Doherty will enter the same team of Captain Dave Matthews, Bob Ufer, Ross Hume and John Roxborough that burned up the indoor circuit without suffering a defeat. Five Relays Possible Doherty pointed out that he can put together good teams in five re- lay events, but not all at the same time. The problem will be to substi- tute slower men in relay events where Wolverine superiority will not be threatened too much. The four-mile team's make-up is almost certain to consist of Captain Matthews, Bob Hume, Ross Hume and Ernie Leonardi. Both Ross and Matthews are in the two-mile quartet, but may be able to turn in creditable performances if there is sufficient time between the two events. Sprint-Medley a Question The make-up of the sprint-medley is problematical. At present the team is composed of Ufer in the quarter, Matthews in the 880-yard run and two of the following four men-Len Alkon, Jack Martin, Chuck Pinney ar Bob Gardner-in the two 220-yard dlashes. Ufer would be the logical choice to take the opening 440-yard dash of the distance medley, but competition in the other two events would prevent that. So Doherty will probably 'run Willie Glass in the quater with Rox- borough on the 880-yard lap, either Bub Hume or Leonardi on the three- quarter, and Ross Hume on the mile. '43 Linksmen Prepare for Buckeye Match Yesterday most of the members of the 1943 golf squad took advantage of the perfect weather conditions to round into shape for the first match of the season on the 17th of this month. Captain Ben Smith, Bob Fife, Bill Ludolph and Coach Courtright form- ed one of the foursomes on the course yesterday afternoon. Smith and Ludolph were paired against Bob and "Corky." Although it was Ben's first appearance on the links this season his 38 going out and 35 on the back nine, gave him a 73 that helped him and Bill defeat the coach and Fife. This intra-squad match was only a -small part of the group out for practice. Bob Welling, Paul O'Hara, and Duncan Noble were out for their daily practice rounds. "Bonny" Bon- isteel had his usual good direction and power in his wood shots. Pro- viding the weather will allow them By GLORIA VREELAND "It looks like this is his year," prophesied Coach LeRoy Weir while discussing the promising tennis career of Fred Wellington, one of the top three men on this year's net squad. Although Wellington's court his- tory has been comparatively nil, as yet, Weir feels he have always had all the potentialities of a good player. His serve, an American twist, is one of the stronger points of his game, and since he has recently made a tremendous improvement in his net game, which he was formerly in- clined to shy away from, he now has what Coach Weir considers a "well- rounded game." Was Number Seven Last year Michigan's present num- ber-two netman was seveneth on the squad, but being but a sophomore on a team composed largely of seniors, his name wasn't too frequently seen in the summaries. According to Well- ington himself he went along to the matches "just to play bridge." But he did manage to play enough to win his letter. Wellington started playing tennis in high school after making an un- successful tray at base1 all. He goes for all kinds of sports; and also played basketball for Ann Arbor high. Wins State Doubles In 1940 when he and Roger Lewis won the state high school doubles championship for Ann Arbor high they had to defeat another present team mate, Louie Telbizoff, who is now in eleventh spot. Representing Monroe high school, Telbizoff and his partner, Marvin Ott, had won the crown the year before and Wellington admits that he and Lewis were a bit Slucky in taking these two, to whom 'PRO' BOIM_ leading pitcher on Coach Ray Fisher's baseball nine, will pitch the first ball in today's game as Michigan opens the current season against the Iowa Hawkeyes at Iowa City. Crisler Pleased As Grid Squad Grows Larger Coach "Fritz" Crisler was still beaming as the Maize and Blue foot- ball team trotted onto the gridiron in their fourth practice of the spring workouts still in full force. In fact, according to Hank Hatch, the equipment manager, there were several r candidates at yesterday's session. Things begin to look much brighter with each passing day as more men keep filtering into the locker room showing that the students at Michi- gan have not abandoned hopes for football. Two New Plays Yesterday's session consisted of the same fundamentals of wind sprints, individual blocking, and charging, but the stress was put on the execution of plays to give the boys a little idea of cooperation, which will be needed in the coming scrimmages. Crisler introduced two new plays yesterday, and as the players are rounding rapidly in shape, that old gleam can be seen in the eyes of Professor Fritz and it's a good guess that the first scrimmage is not far off. they had succumbed in all previous encounters. It seems that, due to the weather, the match was played in- doors in the TM building where he and Lewis had been practicing all winter.' Battles for Top The Ann Arbor resident is now bat- tling it out with Lewis and captain Jinx Johnson for supremacy on the squad. He is likely to run into more difficulty than some of the others in adjusting his game to the outdoor courts, which, with less than two weeks to go before the opening match at Michigan State, have yet to be used by any of the varsity netters. INTRAMURAL Sport Shots Last night the finals were held in the fraternity handball tournament at the IM and the Sigma Chi's proved their superiority by taking the title honors. The Phi Delta Theta fraternity took it on the chin from the Sigma Chi's, but they made the winners take their crown the hard way. It was Samble and Burke in the singles for Sigma Chi beating Seaver and Snider for the Phi Delts. Metzger and Kollette were the winners for Sigma Chi in the doubles match, opposing Comb and Crawford of the Phi Delts. Sigma Alpha Epsilon took third place from the Alpha Mu fraternity by default. John Scopis of Michigan House won the championship of the Resi- dence Halls as he defeated Walter Szkarlet who represented Fletcher Hall. Leonard Berman of Chicago House captured third place in a win over Arthur Vogel of Chicago House. Tigers Read To Play Pirates This Saturday EVANSVILLE, Ind., April 8.-(RP)- The Detroit Tigers staged one of their last full-scale workouts today as a tuneup for an exhibition sched- ule that calls for 10 games in 10 days starting this week-end. Half of the 24-player squad leaves tomorrow under coach Al Vincent for Muncie where the Tigers engage the Pittsburgh Pirates Saturday in the opener of a seven-game spring series between the two clubs. The other 12 will drill tomorrow under Manager Steve O'Neill before meeting the Pirates in a return game here Sunday. On the way home, Vincent's squad will stop off at Terre Haute Sunday to meet the Minneapolis Millers of the American Association. Paul (Dizzy) Trout, a native of nearby Sandcut, whose suburbs, he says, in- clude Terre Haute, will hurl Sunday. IT'S HOLIDAY AGAIN Harry Holiday, who has broken world records in the 100-yard and 200-meter backstroke this year, will try for the American mark in the 150-yard individual medley today at the Detroit A.C. Harry should not have much difficulty in bettering the record time of 1:34, for he is a remark- ably versatile swimmer. As a freestyler he tied for first place in the 50-yard distance in the first Michigan-Ohio State meet. a WAR MOVIES MEXICO BUILDS A DEMOCRACY PEOPLES OF CANADA . . .Canada's answer to Hitler's doctrine of race superiority.

KELLOGG AUDITORIUM: DENTAL BUILDING FREE SUNDAY, April 11 8:15 to 9:15 Contributed by the MICHIGAN UNION (,)- The Cleveland Indians ham- A mered out 13 hits today-a new high for their practice game season-and defeated the Indianapolis club of the American Association 7 to 1. After being held to four hits and one run in four innings by Johnnyt Hutchings, formerly of the Boston Braves and Cincinnati Reds, the Tribe slugged Bob Logan, ex-Chicago Cub southpaw, for nine blows in the last four rounds. Paul Calvert worked the first three innings for the Indians and allowed three hits. Vernon Kennedy, who hurled the middle three, yielded four hits but no runs, and Jim Bagby per- mitted no one to reach first base in the three stanzas he pitched. VINCENNES, Ind., April 8.-(AP)- With rookie Dick Culler collecting three singles and a double, the Chi- cago White Sox blasted the George Field Soldiers 9 to 1 today. Joe Haynes held the soldiers to one run off seven hits in six innings while the Sox built up four runs. They came through for five in the eighth as freshman Ed Hanski, the semi - pro pitcher who replaced Haynes in the seventh and yielded only three blows, led off with a homer. * * * FRENCH LICK, Ind., April 8.- (P)- Only Clyde McCullough and Lou Novikoff were in the Chicago Cubs holdout ranks today after chunky Eddie Stanky, the Milwau- kee shortstop who was voted the American Association's most valu- able player last year, signed on the dotted line. Stanky came in from his home in Mobile, Ala., admitting he had done little conditioning be- cause of bad weather. He had nego- tiated three weeks. I I Goalie Gets Shutout in Finale Win BOSTON, April 8.- (P)- With Johnny Mowers, their all-star goalie, turning in his second shutout in as many nights, the high-powered De- troit Red Wings tonight clinched the Stanley Cup, hockey's most prized trophy, in four straight games by out-scoring the Boston Bruins, 2-0, before a 12,954 crowd at the Boston Garden. As was the case in the three pre- vious games, the Red Wings were so far superior to the war-riddled Bru- ins that the action throughout was decidedly one-sided, despite the fact that the victors were out-shot by a 30-18 margin. Scores Unassisted Both of the Detroit scores, by Joe Carveth in the first period, and Carl Liscombe early in the second session, were unassisted affairs. Carveth beat Bill Cowley, Boston's all-star center and Hart Trophy winner, to a loose puck in the center zone. With one Bruin back to challenge him, he raced in and zinged a 15-foot shot through goalie Brimsek. Liscombe's solo effort, which gave him his 14th playoff point and en- abled him to equal the record shared by Cowley and Don Grosso, his De- troit teammate, had its start when the Wings broke up one of the few really effective five-man rushes the Bruins organized during the entire game. He broke out of a Detroit corner, sped down the left sideboards and, after swinging around the de- fense, rifled a 1-foot angle shot into the opening Brimsek left in his net. When they chalked up that tally, the Red Wings concentrated on their defenses to enable Mowers to go through his second whitewashing job in 24-hours. After a day of snow and weatherman had a change yesterday, giving Crisler's a perfect practice session. mist the of heart chargesi EXPERIENCE, DO YOU DIG IT?
