In the opener rookie Ruffus Gentry tossed a six-hitter for his second shutout, and in the nightcap 16 hits enabled Lefty Hal, Newhouser to gain his ninth pitching victory. Gentry outdueled southpaw Al Smith for his third victory against five defeats. Rudy York doubled to open the second inning and eventu- ally scored what proved to be the winning run when Don Ross hit into a double play with the bases loaded. Get Two in Sixth The Tigers got two more in the sixth when Eddie Mayo and York singled and Pinky Higgins drew a pass, filing the bases. Jimmy Outlaw belted a two-run single to left field. Meanwhile, Gentry made the Indi- ans keep their distance. In the fifth Paul O'Dea doubled with one out but was left stranded when Buddy Rosar and Russ Peters went out. It was Detroit's fifth shutout of the season and the first time Cleveland has been blanked. Newhouser Fails to Last Newhouser wasn't on the scene at the finish, but he cashed in on the victory that put him one above his 1943 production. Newhouser had a 7-3 lead in the seventh, but when Manager Lou Boudreau gathered the fourth of his five hits and Mike Roc- co walked, Manager Steve O'Neil called in Johnny Gorsica who stop- ped the tribe the rest of the way. The Tigers gathered 16 hits off four pitchers in the night-cap, short- stop Joe Hoover getting three and driving in three runs. Ex-Tiger Ver- non Kennedy, just off the suspended list, bore the brunt of the assault and was charged with the defeat. Higgins singled home a run in the first inning, but Cleveland came back with two runs on singles by Bou- dreau, Rocco and Roy Cullenbine along with Roger Cramer's error. Team To Close Fine Year in Contests with Broncos at Kalamazoo By MARY LU HEATH With its worries over winning the Western Conference championship safely dissolved, the Wolverine nine tomorrow travels to Kalamazoo to try and bring its season's record to 17 wins, two defeats and a lone tie as it tackles Western Michigan in two games tomorrow and Saturday. The record of this year's diamond club is much better than average as far as Big Ten Wolverine baseball champions go. Of the eight other teams which have won the title in the past 24 years, the present squad has compiled a mark bettered only by the 1923 and '28 winners. Record Best in Decade Thus, the Michigan record this year is the best in a decade. The dope book shows that Coach Ray Fisher's '23 aggregation chalked up a mark of 22 wins in 26 starts, barely nosing out the 22 in 27 record of the '28 squad. The present team is typical of Fisher's successful clubs. In only three campaigns has the Wolverine mentor been unable to produce an outfit whch has suffered a losing season, In 1930, Michigan won nine and lost 15; in '35, they registered 11 wins against 12 defeats; and in 1940, they won only 10 out of 22 tilts. To Use Reserve Hurlers Meanwhile, the Wolverines are gunning for two big wins Friday and Saturday which will bring the score in the victory column to 17. In pick- ing his starting hurlers, Fisher is sticking to a regular and also trying several boys who have had little chance to get into a regular game all year. As usual lefty Bo 13owman will start the first game, but instead of right-hander Elroy Hirsch, Fisher will probably start another right- handed hurler, Dick Schmidtke. Schmidtke pitched a few innings for the varsity last year, but his only ,chance on the mound this season came in the 3-2 loss to Camp Perry, which resulted from poor support. Infield Juggled Schmidtke may not hurl the com- plete game, in which case Fisher will probably choose to throw relief pitch- ers Al Willers and Jack Hackstadt against theeBroncos. The Wolverine infield has been considerably juggled in the past week. Catcher Bob Stevenson and third-baseman Mike Farnyk will not be on hand for either contest, and second-sacker Charley Ketterer will probably be missing in the secondI tilt. Swanson To Catch First-baseman Elmer Swanson, who caught every game for the varsity last season, will be behind the plate for the Wolverines, and Fisher will move Hirsch down to the initial base. If Hirsch should be required to pitch, centerfielder Don Lund or left-fielder Bob Wiese could be called in from the outer gardens. Keith Phelps will play second in Ketterer's absence, and Walter Kell, who occupied third base in both tilts with Purdue Saturday, will probably guard the hot corner. There is also an outside chance that outfielder Bob Nussbaumer may take third or, if either Wiese or Lund goes to first, will return to the field.

DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN Baseball Coach Ray Fisher yester-! day announced the names of 16 ma- jor letter winners and two minor award winners for the 1944 diamond season. The 18 awards constitute one of the largest numbers ever handed out for baseball by Fisher in his 24-year tenure at Michigan. Normally, about 15 letters are given. Five Hurlers on List Heading the list of recipients are five pitchers, Elroy Hirsch, Bliss (Bo) Bowman, Dick Schmidtke, Jock Hackstadt and Denn;7 Manko. Hirsch and Bowman were the mainstays of the Wolverine staff while the others saw service in spots. Of the other three, only Manko appeared in a Big Ten game. Only one catcher, Bob Stevenson, who caught every game played by Michigan this season, received a let- ter. Six infielders are on the list for block "M's", including Elmer Swan- son, Charlie Ketterer, Bruce Blan- chard, Mike Farnyk, Walter Kell and Keith Phelps. Two Minor Awards Given The first four named constitute the regular Wolverine infield while Kell and Phelps saw service as utility men. Four outfielders complete the list, Bob Nussbaumer, Bob Wiese, Don Lund and Bill Gregor. Minor awards were given to Bill Nelson, outfielder, and Al Willers, White House Routs Colonists For Title White House defeated Colonial House 12-1 last night to annex the Residence Hall League championship behind the three-hit pitching of Sey- mour Sonkin plus some timely hit- ting by his teammates. After losing their first game, White House bowled over four straight op- ponents to come out on top. Sonkin was aided in the, final tilt by the errorless fielding of the team.
