CHICAGO, Jan. 8.--OP)-Bill John-
son, star third baseman of the New

rookie of 1943 by the Chicago Chap-
ter of the Baseball Writers Associ-
ation of America.

(Continued from Page 1) - -
Oosterbaan's charges held a 27-25
advantage at the intermission.
Illinois jumped into a quick 29-27 t
edge at the outset of the second half
but the potent Tom King came
through again and the score was4
knotted once more.
Illinois climed into the lead again
on free throws by Bob Morton and'
Gordon Gillespie. This time, how-
ever, the Wolverines were not to be
denied as they began scoring withz
precision-like accuracy. Strack, King
and Bill Seymour hit in rapid fire
order and the Michigan quintet now
enjoyed a 37-31 margin.
Illini Rally
Apparently this rally didn't damp-
en the spirit of the fighting Illini,
for they regained their composure }
quickly, and by virtue of the sensa-
tional play of Howie Judson, raced
to a 38-37 advantage. After a basket
by Bob Stevens, which put the Wol-{
verines on top 39-38, Kirk, Patrick,
and Judson connected for the Orange
and Blue-providing what appeared
to be a comfortable lead.-
It was now that the Wolverines ~
started their final rally which result-
ed in eventual victory. Dave Strack,-e
brought the crowd to its feet by scor-
ing two beautitful baskets from far
out, and Bill Seymour finally tied the
score at 43-43 with a magnificently ,BB WIE!)
executed overhead shot from the second b sket , w
right side of the basket. Dave Strack e ha!! a
again came through with a timely
placed basket and Michigan was on B O
top 45-43. This fine performance on B11 Leri y
the part of Strack, proved conclusive-
ly that he is one player who can be t Basel
counted on when the chips are down. Q

Terry, who dragged du a -n i-

years with the Giant-. sad he now is
convinced that his futule d- e u lie
in baseball. "It's too cheap a busi-
ness," he declared, "and it's getting1
cheaper all the time."
He added: "With the low salaries'
they're paying players managers and
front office men now, there's nothingI
in the game for me."
The former Giants star, one of
sport's greatest hitters, disclosed that
he had sold his 304-acre plantation
near here to become a partner in a
large cotton manufacturing firm.
"There's no turning back now,"
Terry said. "I gave the idea of re-
turning to baseball a lot of thought
before I finally made up my mind.
Now it's definite. I intend to devote
myself entirely to the conon business
and watch baseball from the outside."
Memphis Bill remarked that he
was not wolried about the game's fu-
ture. "No business in the wvorld has
ever made more money with poorer
management," he asserted. "It can
survive anything."

THE NEW YEAR brought
almost no perceptable
change to the University.
Students returned after a
week of Christmas vaca-
tion, attended classes for
three days and then tried
as best they could over the
week end to greet the New
Year with appropriate joy.
Still, however, '44 sounded
strange . . . on New Year's
Eve students danced to the
music of Bill Sawyer in the
gym. It was the "Final
Spree of '43." Women stu-
dents were in their dorias
at 1:30 a.m. . . . The Uni-
versity Planning Board saw
big things for the Unir-
sity in the pos-xa xaort

students were all a part of
