The 46th meeting of the Illinois and Michigan squads, renews an old ' rivalry which began back in the years 1918 to 1930, when two of track's greatest coaches, Steve Farrell of Michigan and Harry Gill, the Illini mentor, fought constantly for Big Ten track supremacy. The Conference reords show that these two schools have always been on the top of the : heap as far as team titles go. The last two or three years have seen a well planned revival of track at Illinois, <*> -- -- -___:-.",.} Bowman Allows Three Hits To Register Fourth Triumph Grate's Performance Best Against Michigan This Year; Nussbaumer Paces Batting Attack with last years' victory in the out- door Conference meet an indication of the exent of their improvement. The Illini edged out the Maize and Blue last spring 62-60 to cop the Conf.erence crown, and finish- ed second in last season's indoor meet. Their squad tasted fresh victory yesterday in their top-heavy win over Ohio State, and the im- pressive showings this season mark them as the pre-meet favorite. Purdue, although not seriously con- sidered as a possible winner, will undoubtedly grab a number of points, and comes here with a rec- ord of finishing third in the Big Ten meet last March. The Michigan squad as a whole is in top shape, and will be gunning to upset the highly touted Illinois ag- gregation. The Hume twins will be shooting at two records, the meet record of 4:18.3, and H. L. Carroll's Michigan outdoor mark of 4:16.4. With the latest news from Illinois stating that Bob Kelley is slated to run the mile as well as the half, chances are good that a new mile mark may be written in the looks. The Illini's star performer, Claude "Buddy" Young, who has been burning up the cinders so far this year, will also be out to smash Golfers Meet Buckeye Squad The Wolverine linksmen tee off against the Ohio State golfers today in an effort to avenge the defeat suffered at the hands of the Buckeyes two weeks ago in Ohio. Coach Ray Courtright announced a slight change in the team that played against Western Michigan and Notre Dame last week-end. At that time six members of the team were used, but tomorrow eight men will represent the Maize and Blue on the fairways. The six men who made the trip last week were Jack Tews, Phil Marcellus, Paul O'Hara, Tom Messinger, John Jenswold and Duncan Noble. Today, however, Noble will be unable to play, and in his place Coach Courtright will use Don Welling. Welling played in several of the opening tourna- ments. Also, Ken Burke and Ken Morey will have a chance to aid the Wol- verine cause. Of this pair, Burke is the only one who saw service in the opening matches. A victory in this contest would give the linksmen a brighter outlook on their Big Ten championship hopes. To date, Ohio State is the only Western Conference team to defeat the Wolverines, and due to their quartet of veterans, they are looked upon as one of the better squads in the mid-west. The best ball matches will be held at the University Golf Course at 8:30 in the morning. The'singles matches will begin at 1:30 in the afternoon. Did your Mother cut your First Curl! THE DASCOLA BARBERS Liberty off State some of the existing records. In yesterday's meet against Ohio State, he won the 100-yard dash in ten seconds flat, and took the broadjump with a leap of 23 feet, eight inches. In view of the fact that he did not compete in the 220, and that his time in the century run was comparatively slow, the conclusion can be drawn that he was saving himself for today and a record-breaking afternoon. B,ob Ufer, present indoor 440 titlist and holder of the Field House record for the 880 as well, will also meet ver- satile Bob Kelley when he competes in the half-mile. Bill Biele, another outstanding contestant for the same distance, will also add to the interest of this race. The mile relay promises to be the highlight of the afternoon's pro- gram, and is termed by Coach Ken Doherty, "as the deciding factor in the outcome of the meet." Both quartets have been running well all year, however, the Illinois four- some has the best time turned in to date. Michigan has covered the- distance in 3:21.8, while Illinois was clocked in 3:21.1 in the Drake Re- lays. The first event will be run off at 1:45 sharp, and will be over before the start of the varsity baseball game against Ohio State. Student identi- fication cards are all that is neces- sary for admission. to the meet. We Meet 'emlToday DETROIT, May 12.-(AP)-Ohio State tuned up for a golf match with Michigan tomorrow at Ann Arbor by gaining an easy 17 to 1 decision today over University of Detroit. It was Detroit's sixth suc- cessive defeat. EVANSTON, Ill., May 12.-(IP)- Sweeping all six singles matches and taking two out of three in doubles, the University of Illinois tennis team today defeated Wis- consin, 8 to 1, on Northwestern's courts. JACK MARTIN AND ELROY HIRSCH-two Wolverine athletes who will give the opponents plenty of trouble in today's contests. Hirsch is slated to pitch against Ohio State and Martin is running in the 100- yard dash and low hurdles in the triangular track meet. Tennis Squad Slated To Face Badgers, Illini By DAVE IOEWENBERG Michigan's well - balanced tennis squad, victorious in three of its four dual meets, faces Wisconsin and Illi- nois today at Northwestern, in what, should prove to be two pushover' matches for the Wolverine crew. Wisconsin was handed decisive 8-1 and 7-2 trimmings by Notre Dame and Northwestern respectively. Illi- nois suffered a 7-2 reversal at the hands of Ohio State's Buckeyes, de- fending champs in the Western Con- ference net race. Weir Announces Changed Lineup Coach Leroy Weir announced last night the Wolverine lineup for the two matches. Capt. Jinx Johnson will be in the number one spot, fol- lowed by the West Coast flash, Jim Frolik, in the second slot. Bill Ford, Michigan's sensational freshman, will hold down the third position. Ford earned his high ranking by scoring an impressive three-set victory over Roger Lewis. Merle Gulic, a transfer from De Pauw University will be playing the fourth berth. Gulic jumped from six to four the past week as a result of victories over Dave Post and Lewis. Lewis will start in the number five spot, the lowest position that he has held for the Wolverines in his two- year regime. Post Is Still Undefeated The last singles position on the squad will be handled by Post, who thus far this season has maintained a perfect record. Gulic and Ford are the other Wolverine netters clear slate. with a i i V Let's Keep It Up ! I OHIO STATE Nakama, 2b ..... Ranz, ef ........ Grate, p ........ Maxa, 3b ....... Nowels, ss ......

Don Grate, Buckeye moundsman and cage star, turned in the most ef- fective performance which has been registered against the Wolverines all spring, allowing six hits and walking two men. Using very few curve balls, Grate got by Michigan in the first, third and eighth by setting the side down in order. However, Bowman was in even bet- ter form, getting five strikeouts and allowing three hits. The lone tally which the Bucks scored in the top half of the seventh was brought in when a solid knock to left sent Jack Nowels, the State shortstop, across the plate. Nowels went down to first when he was hit on the left wrist by one of Bowman's slants, and subse- quently advanced to second as short- stop Bruce Blanchard dropped the ball after tagging the runner out. Michigan Scores in Second The Wolverines drew first blood in the second inning when they put to- gether a fielder's choice and a triple by rightfielder Bob Nussbaumer to score a single run. A possible second marker was erased when Don Lund, who had blasted a solid single into right, was thrown out on Swanson's bounding ball down the third base line. The final score for the Wolverines resulted from a hit by Nussbaumer, a sacrifice by catcher Bob Stevenson, a fielder's choice on Bowman and a sacrifice by second baseman Mike Farnyk. The Buckeyes collected no runs during the first six innings, but came dangerously close to soring in the top half of the second frame when Nowels took first on another error by Blanchard. He went over to third on catcher Tom Neby's solid hit into left and an error on left- fielder Gregor. Gregor committed the first misplay of the season in the Wolverine outfield as he let Newby's hit roll through his legs. Nowels was subsequently erased as Farnyk threw rightfielder Walter Wahlstrom's bounding ball to Stev- enson as the shortstop slid into home- plate, Wahlstrom, on base by virtue of the fielder's choice, stole second, but first baseman Nick Pappas was thrown out, second to first. Nussbaumer Stars for Wolverines The star 'of the game was clearly Nussbaumer, who got the only extra base wallop of the contest, and regis- tered two hits in three trips to the plate. Nussbaumer scored -the win- ning run in the fifth and batted in the first marker. No other man on the field was good for more than one hit, and the rightfielder's impressive WAR BONDS ISSUED HERE!

This was the second game in which Nussbaumer has been started in right. TheBuck hits were equally distrib- uted between centerfielder George Ranz, Newby and Wahlstrom, who each beat out singles. Keo Nakama, State swimming star, was especially effective at second, and shared field- ing honors with third-sacker Maxa, who got five assists and one putout. Base-Running Looks Spotty The Wolverines were victims of spotty base-running, and would prob- ably have picked up more runs if they had capitalized on their chances in the sixth and seventh frames. In the sixth, Blanchard was erased aft- er he had made first on a single and had rounded second to reach third :n a wild pitch by Grate. However, he had failed to touch the bag at second, and was thrown out by Maxa. Lund walked after the next man had flied to left, but was caught off the sack. Michigan muffed another possible chance to score in the seventh when Swanson was issued Grate's second free pass but was thrown out by Newby in his subsequent attempt to steal second. Maxa, who played third yesterday for State, is expected to start in to- day's single contest with the Wolver- ines. His probably opponent will be Elroy Hirsch, who has a two and nothing win record.

Tiger Power Humn bles Yanks, I 0 4 NEW YORK, May 12.-(P)-The Detroit Tigers exploded today with a 17-hit attack topped by three run homers by Pinky Higgins and Jimmy Outlaw to smother the league leading New York Yankees, 10 to 4, for a 2 to 1 series edge. Finding the range on pitchers Bill Zuber and Floyd Bevens, Detroit accumulated its largest score of the season to give Hal Newhouser, who pitched an eight-hitter, an easy time of it for his fourth victory. The previous high score was six runs, and Tigers got that many in a big seventh in which ten men went to the plate. The only runs off Newhouser were the result of two-run homers by Ar- thur (Bud) Metheny in the first inning and Ed Levy in the eighth. The principal wrecker of the Yank- ees today was Higgins, veteran third baseman who hadn't batted in a run since he homered off Jack Kramer of St. Louis on opening day. Pinky's homer in the fifth put Detroit in front for keeps and he singled in two runs in the seventh to boost his day's output to five runs batted in. The first three Yankees who faced Newhouser hit safely, Metheny con- necting for his homer after George Stirnweiss had singled. Zuber, who beat Detroit twice without defeat last year, yielded a run in the second when Outlaw walked ahead of singles by Chuck Hostetler and Bob Swift. iMicjor LeagueStidiigs AMERICAN LEAGUE , NATIONAL LEAGUE.
