Weir Is Still in Doubt
As to Starting Lineup

BY HARVEY FRANK
Michigan's tennis team will raise
the curtain on its 1943 season today
when it travels to East Lansing to
tangle with the strong Spartans of
Michigan State.
Coach LeRoy Weir won't announce
the Wolverine lineup until just before
the match starts, but either fresh-
man Roger Lewis or Captain Jinx
Johnson will probably start at the
number one position. They have been
alternating' at that spot in practices,
each holding decisions over the other.
However Fred Wellington, last
year's number seven player, has also
beaten the other two in practice ses-
sions and might possibly open the
season in the top spot. At least it is
definite that these three will play the
top three matches in some order.
Roy Bradley seems a sure starter
in the fourth bracket, and Fred
Sleator and Roy Boucher will prob-
ably start as numbers five and six.
Sleator seems to have cinched his

spot with a win over Boucher Mon-
day night.
The doubles aren't any more de-
finite than the singles. Lewis and
Wellington who won the state high
school doubles title three years ago,
are probable starters at number one,
and Johnson and Bradley will play
number two. As yet Weir doesn't
know who he'll use in the third com-
bination, but might team up Bouch-
er and Merle Brown, another year-
ling.
The Spartans have three lettermen
returning, including Frank Beeman,
last year's number one man. In 1942
Beeman lost two close matches to
Michigan's Lawt Hammett. The
other two lettermen are Earl May,
who beat both Wayne. Stille and
Gerry Schaflander last year, and
Bill Maxwell, the man with two fore-
hands, who beat both Hammett and
Jim Porter in 1941. Porter played'
number two for the Wolverines last
year.
Newcomers Fred Ziemann, Mickey
Elliott, and Marv Ott will probably
round out the Spartan's roster.

Rain Prevents
Scheduled Tilt
With Irish Nine
With cold weather and rain in-
terfering for the third time with
Michigan baseball plans, Ray Fish-
er's nine was unable to play Notre
Dame yesterday in its scheduled
game and will now be unable to meet
the Irish this season, as both teams
have a. full schedule.
Provided weather conditions im-
prove the squad will meet Ypsi Nor-
mal Thursday afternoon in a game
calculated to give the team another
taste of competition before the two
Big Ten encounters to be played with
Purdue over the week-end.
Thursday Fisher is planning to
pitch Don McIntosh freshman hurl-
er, as well as Bill Cain, Dick Drur:V,
and probably Dick Savage. In this
way he plans to give an adequate
workout to the mound squad which
has suffered from lack of practice
during the recent cold weather seige.

WASHING TON, AP'l4L 20s-UPI-
The Washington Senators walloped
the Philadelphia Athletics 7 to 5 in
Griffith Stadium today to launch
the Major Baseball season before a!
war-conscious crowd of 25,093 fans.
Paul V. McNutt, who once pitched
for Indiana University, tossed out
the first ball, pitcher Dutch Leanard
caught it, and the season was open.
Catching McNutt's looping throw
was the only success Leonard, Wash-
ington's ace hurler, had all day. After
two unsteady but scoreless innings
he was tagged for two Philadelphia
runs in the third, another in the
fourth and gave way to a pinchhitter.
Luman Harris, who started for the
A's, was equally as shaky in the early
chapters, but managed to stave off
trouble till the Senators broke loose
in the sixth. Russ Christopher re-
lieved him, pitched to two batters,
'hitting one, and was charged with
the loss.

Wolverines Out To Take Three
Team Titles in Penn Relays

TAKING IT EASY
By ED ZALENSKI
* * 1. H
(Editor's Note: Today's guest column is written by Hoe Seltzer, a former mem-
her of the Daily sports staff, and now a University of Michigan Medical Student.)

If Michigan's cindermen should
capture three first-place titles at
Saturday's Penn Relays in Philadel-
phia, don't be too surprised.
As matters now stand Coach Ken
Doherty is practically certain of' a
victory in the two-mile relay. His
crack team of Captain Dave Mat-
thews, Bob Ufer, John Roxborough
and Ross Hume is unbeaten in indoor
competition and there is no reason
to suppose that they can be taken
outdoors.
And the Wolverine coach has the
material to turn out two other pow-
erftil quartets. There is a possibility
that Michigan can take two more
titles, but sports fans should not be
too free with their betting money.
According to-available records only
Pittsburgh has been able to walk off
with three team titles at one Penn
Relay meeting. This happened in
1938. With his current crop of out-
standing runners, Doherty can con-
ceivably turn the trick.
The entrance of Notre Dame's dis-

tance medley team may complicate
matters somewhat as the Irish quar-
tet is one of the nation's best. The
team of Gene Fehlig (440), Don Cur-
rie (880), Frank Maloney (three-
quarters), and Ollie Hunter III
(mile) is a sure bet for first place.
Doherty has a lot of hope for his
four-mile team of Bob and Ross
Hume, Matthews and Ernie Leonar-
di and his mile quartet of four quar-
ter-milers picked from Ufer, Willie
Glas, Jim Sears, Art Upton, Ralph
Gibson, Bill Matney and Don Stern-
isha.
Michigan could put a distance
medley team on the field of Ufer in
the 440,, Roxborough in the 880,
Matthews in the three-quarters, and
Ross Hume in the mile. Howover,
since Ufer and Matthews would not
be available, Doherty could substi-
tute Glas in the 440 and either Bob
Hume or Leonardi in thu three-quar-
ters-

SEY" they call him, which stands
for easy-going. And easy-going
he is until he steps. into the ring
and becomes the very intense little
scrapper who ruled the roost in the
bantam and then featherweight divi-
sions of the annual Jackson Golden
Gloves Tournament for five years
straight.
His real tag is Jack Hood Vaughn
and he is to be found almost any
day down at the Sports Building
instructing the PEM's in the gen-
tle art of how to hit and not get
hit.
Easy, one of the more'colorful of
the campus Phi Gams, began fight-
ing in his home town of Albion when
he was 16 and by the following year
hadcleaned the clocks o all the
home-town opposition, and was
shooed by the town authorities into
the Jackson Golden Gloves tourney
where it was adjudged he would meet
his master. This is in 1937 and
Jackie sweeps through all Jackson
contenders to the novice 118-pound
crown and goes to the state finals
in Grand Rapids where he is stopped'
by a biffo whom the management
later admits was a ringer, an experi-
enced boxer and hence ineligible for
that class. But that does not mend
up Easy's wrenched jaw and mashed
nose any sooner.
Mr. Vaughn decides that the
way to forestall further incidents
of this ilk is to become as good as'
any ringer and he perseveres in
the boxing game to such good ef-
fect that after salting away the
Jackson G.G. novice bantam crown
again the next year he moves up
to the open featherweight division
and monopolizes that bracket's ti-
tle for the ensuing three years.
And it gets so that the crowd calls
an intermission and goes out for a
smoke when Easy fights because they
know what's gonna happen anyway,
and finally the management says
look Jackie you are a nice guy and
we like you around here an awful lot,
but can you understand us when we
say that it gets monotonous to see
a guy win every fight for five straight
years. So Jackie does not fight in
the Golden Gloves any more.
Although Easy cleans house in
Jackson he never does quite turn
back the best in the state and go
down to the Chicago tournament
as the Michigan 126-pound champ.
Which is in no wise detracting
from his ability because up at
Grand Rapids he meets such lads,

as Bill Eddy and Earl Reid, both
of whom later become national
champions,.
And then there is the time he
meets Joe Papneck three weeks-after
Joe wins the state title and cools
him in 45 seconds with a sharp left
hook in close. Thus Jackie is no-
body's piker pugilistically speaking
and the statistics during his semi-
decade of active competition run 59
wins against only three losses.
If Jackie's style were to be clas-
sified it would be under the head-
ing of "sweet little boxer." He is
a virtual machine in the ring and
never uncorks either his blasting
left hook or his soporific right
cross unless the opening for them
is ready and waiting.
It is maybe for this reason that
the fight-goers in his home town
are waiting- almost eagerly to see
Easy knuckled down, for he has
never lost a fight in Albion. Fight
crowds are funny people and al-
though they know it's all wrong
they still like to see wild swings and
swishes instead of classy boxing be-
cause of the homicidal potentialities
of such sweeps.
Wherefore much feeling is
aroused the night Jackie is
matched against the strongest
fArmer kid in the sector, a rube
roughened and toughened by many
seasons of beet topping. This local,
favorite immediately evidences a.
strategy which consists of suddenly
shifting from a right- to a left-
handed stance, these tactics being
in theory very confusing to an
opponent. But in the middle of the
second shift Easy drills him flush
on the biscuit with a right and
after that the fight is all our hero's
and all Albionites present begin
to think maybe there is something
to this science stuff after all.
Our Mr. Vaughn is such a good
fighter he once even considered turn-
ing pro, but within a short time
his sanity returned to him and he
now is spending a carefree senior
year teaching boxing, preparing him-
self, for a possible career in the diplo-
matic service, and playing a key role
in the annual French play.
And sometimes from Detroit
they call up "Available" Vaughn
and' ask him to appear on a club
fight card and within two weeks
he whips himself into shape and
shows the patrons nine minutes
of savage scrapping. Jackie 41ways
puts on a damned good fight.

cinnati, New York at Brooklyn Phil-
adelphia at Boston and Pittsburgh at
Chicago.
American League: Washington at

cessive seasons.
Buckeye Match
Good Practice
For Golf Squad
By JEAN GASKELL
"The meet with Ohio State will
be chalked up to experience which
will help us in the quest for the
Conference title," Coach Ray Court-
right'said when he returned with the
Wolverine golf team after its match
Saturday at Columbus.
Although the encounter with the
Buckeyes was extremely close, nei-
ther team was playing well. There
is considerable evidence of this in
the high scores posted by both sides.
Bad weather conditions during the
weeks that the men should have had
outdoor practice kept all of the links-
men from playing their usual brand
of golf.
Courtright was well pleased on
the whole, however, with the show-
ing of the Wolverines. He pointed
out that the match was close. Had
pars been made on the final holes of
three Michigan individual matches,
the Wolverines would have been vic-
torious over Ohio State.
Because of their lack of practice,
the men of Maize and Blue couldn't
depend on the direction of their
drives, and so chipping and putting
played even more than their usual
part in deciding the matches. This
resulted in the close and heart-
breaking "green finishes" that char-
acterized the play of the day.
Practice sessions will be frequent
and long this week, if the weather
permits, as the Wolverines prepare
to meet Michigan State and Notre
Dame here next Saturday in a non-
Conference triangular match. The
Spartans will probably bring nine or
ten men from their squad. The Irish
team should be especially strong if
Harrigan and Whiting are available.
