Thirteenth Win ' jf 1nI!A ,-, 41;I7,i n 'r By RUTH ELCONIN Early this spring Ray Courtright, Michigan's golf nientor, described linksman Tom Messinger as a "steady player with a good style and temper- ament," and he also added that Mes- singer should be a definite asset to the 1944 golf team. Courtright's prediction concern-I ing his new 'eharge was correct.I Not 'only did Messinger make the varsity team in his first attempt, but he also proved to be one of the outstanding players on the squad. Glancing at Messinger's record, one can easily see that he gave the opposition plenty to worry about in addition to giving his utmost sup- port and confidence to his fellow golfers. The Wolverines opened the golf season against the University of De- troit and when the scores were turned in at the end of the match, Messin- ger's card showed a 79, which was top score for both teams. The next day Michigan faced Northwestern, and Messinger and Jack Tews shared honors in this tilt. In the matches that followed Messinger continued shooting fine golf, game after game, and when the team wound up the season last Saturday at Detroit Mes- singer again proved his ability by' playing his best match of of the year. Messinger had always planned on coming to the University of Michigan, but when he did arrive i Ann Arbor on July 1, 1943, he was wearing a Navy uniform and was a member of the V-12 pro- gram. Commenting about his favorite athletic pastimes, he ranks golf num- ber one in his list of sports; but hockey is a close second. Though he was only a freshman, he played de- fenseman on the 1943-44 Michigan hockey team and won his varsity letter and when spring came, Mes- singer tried out for the golf squad and was soon recognized as one of the top performers. 'Tom first started to play golf when he was only three years old and he says that he owes his early interest in the game to his father who is not only an avid fan, but also a regular participant in the sport. The senior Messinger had a special set of clubs made for Tom and he used them until he was tall enough for the regular sticks. The Wolveinne's new linksman comes from Houghton, Mich., where he attended Houghton High, and while there he devoted his time to being a star pucksman, because the school did not have a golf team. He was on the hockey squad for two successive years and he captured honors and letters both times. Confidence on the links is an asset to golfers, and many gain it by playing in several tournaments; Messinger was no exception. Be- fore coming to Michigan he won the Upper Peninsula Golf Tourna- ment when he was only 15, and thus earned the distinction of being the youngest player ever to achieve this honor. In 1941 he won the Portage Lake Golf Club Champion- ship and also entered the St. Paul Open. The next summer he played in the Western Junior Amateur and the State Amateur Tournaments, and he again captured honors in the Portage Lake Golf Club Championship. During this past golf season, Messinger continued playing top golf, and last Saturday he helped the Wolverine linksters cop their third successive Big Ten Crown when he posted a 159 for the Con- ference matches.

Rally in Ninth Gives Tigers 6-2 Victory DETROIT, May 31i.-(eP)-Utility infielder Albert Unser hammered a -run homer with to out ri th ninth ining odyt Givet estri Tigers a 6 to 2 victory over the New York Yankees for a third straight triumph over the chrampions. The Tigers thus extended their winning streak to five games. Detroit was trailing 2 to 1 going into the ninth and rookie Walter Dubiel, who had pitched a four hitter, seemingly had things under control. But an error by shortstop Mike Milo- sevich set off a five run rally, At South Bend Fisher Picks Hirsch, Bowman as Starters Michigan's baseball team will be seeking win number thirteen Friday when it once more tangles with Notre Dame in the first of a two-game series at South Bend. The Wolverines hope to repeat their 5-4, 7-2 decisions over the Irish, which were registered here April 29$ and 30 as Coach Ray Fisher's crew won their third and fourth games of the season. Fisher is expected to throw righthander Elroy Hirsch and lefty Bo Bowman at Jake Klein's men for the second time this spring. In his first start against the Irish, Bowman pitched a five-hitter against hurler Joe Zieminski to register his second win. Hirsch's mound perfor- mance against Notre Dame was his initial starting assignment, and the big righthander not only pitched a seven-hitter, but also came through at bat to tie up the game in the ninth. Irish Again Improve The Irish hit the skids after the Wolverines administered their first losses of the season, but have picked up in their last few outings. Last Saturday, the Notre Dame squad whipped Western Michigan, a team which the Wolverines took with 9-0, 2-1 scores. Tuesday, the Irish lost to the Bun- ker Hill Naval Base, a service nine which boasts several ex-big leaguers in its starting lineup. Of the Big Ten squads they have played besides Michigan, Notre Dame's varsity has suffered a single defeat at the hands of Wisconsin. The Irish beat Purdue once and took Indiana twice. Michigan regis- tered 14-3, 12-1 wins over the Hoo- siers Saturday, but have not met Purdue yet. The face the Boiler- makers here June 10 in a double- header which will be their last Big Ten go of the season. Kline's Lineup Changes The Notre Dame lineup will be very different from the one which the Wolverines encountered earlier in the season. Approximately five of the original nine players remain on the Irish squad. Coach Kline has broken in new talent and has made his old lineup more flexible. Tom Sheehan is no longer the ex- clusive occupant of the catching berth. The big backstop is now shar- ing his duties with Walter Kowalski, who did not see service here. How- er, pitcher Joe Zieminski is certain to start against the Maize and Blue for a second time. Zieminski was the loser in the last contest here when he was forced to the showers after allowing five hits in seven innings. Although he was responsible for Tuesday's defeat of the Irish by the Bunker Hill team, he is a greatly improved pitcher. Jack Barrett, who relieved Ziemin- ski and pitched one frame against Michigan, is also an improved hurler. In the single inning he pitched here, Barrett allowed two hits but racked up three strikeouts to retire the side. S r , *.. 1 : e S.
