SATURDAY, AJARCII 31, 11945. THE MICHIGAN, DAILY. . i. Swimmers Hold econd Place in -NCAAi Haegg Makes Farewell Run, Aims for First Win Over Jim Rafferty BUFFALO, N. Y., March 30-(PA)- Gunder Haegg, the Speedy Swede, is scheduled to make his farewell ap- pearance of his 1945 American Track Tour in Buffalo tomorrow night, but sponsoring officials were wondering whether "Gunder the Wonder" would make it. Haegg has been visiting his fiancee, Miss Dorothy Nortier, on the West Coast, in Oakland, Calif., and finally got a seat on an airliner late today. He was "bumped" from passen- ger lists Wednesday and yesterday by persons with higher priority. Officials of the Niagara Association AAU and the 74th Regiment Arm- ory A. A. agree that Gunder will certainly have to be swift to arrive in time for the Invitational Mile scheduled for 10 p. m. (EWT). He is expected to arrive here late tomor- row afternoon. Jimmy Rafferty of the New York Athletic Club, thrice Gunder's con- queror will attempt to lower the 4 :12 74th Armory Mile mark set by Paavo Nurmi in 1920. Haegg's best time in his four Am- erican appearances was recorded in Chicago when he was clocked in 4:14.5. Rafferty's fastest time this se.son is 4:13.1. Shorts, '01 Football Team Captain Dies* Bruce C. Shorts, captain of the 1901 football team, died Thursday in Seattle, Washington. Shorts, who was graduated from the law school in 1901, played tackle on Coach Fielding H. Yost's first University football team which de- feated Stanford in the first annual Rose Bowl game. He was a former football coach at the Universities of Oregon and Nevada. O'Hara Leads Golfers In Fourth Crown Quest Last Year's Letter Winner Elected Captain; Formerly Held Detroit Prep Championship By RUTH ELCONIN Leading the Wolverine golf team during the 1945 season will be Captain Paul O'Hara, who hopes to spark the Michigan linksters on to their fourth consecutive Big Ten Championship. O'Hara earned his varsity golf letter last year when he was a member of the Maize and Blue squad that captured the Conference crown, and his long drives and accurate putting seemed to come when a victorious match was needed most by the linksters, Michigan's golf captain entered the Coach Doherty Holds His Own, As Cinder Ace Track Mentor Starred At Detroit's Wayne U., Placed i Olympics By BILL MULLENDORE . Cynics among sports fans are in- clined to ask of even the most suc- cssful coaches, "Sure, he does all' right telling others how to do it, but could he do it himself?" In the case of Ken Doherty, Mich- igan's track coach, the cynic might I be more thai a little surprised at the answer to such an inquiry, for Doh- erty, in addition to being a coach of champions, is a champion of the cin- derpath in his own right. The Wolverine mentor established his" track reputation in perhaps the, most exacting of all competition- the decathlon-a 10-event program requiring a high degree of skill in almost every phase of track and field endeavor. It is definitely not the place for the specialist, who excells in only one event.

This battle, jam-packed with thrills, was taken by the Maize and Blue in 3:05.4. Fries started out a length and a half behind the leader, Joseph DiStasio of Cornell, and, making up this distance in the first three laps, surged ahead of the Big Red charge in the final lap, to capture victory by a full three feet. Heini Kessler handled the breastsroke leg of the relay admirably, against Vern Ojampa of Minnesota and Cornell's ace, Paul Murray. Maize and Blue veteran, Gordon Pulford swam the backstroke heat.

It was Bruneteau who whipped in a goal at 17:12 of the sudden- death overtime 'period Thursday night to beat the Bruins, 3 to 2, and give the Red Wings a 3 to 2 edge in games over Boston. Bruneteau, who has been playing with a fractured upper jaw, received in the final game of the regular season, also rifled in the winning goal from a difficult angle in the last five minutes of Sunday's game. The Red Wings were confident of concluding the semifinals Sun- day night. They need one more' victory to reach the finals. On the other hand, Boston's play-' ing coach, Aubrey (Dit) Clapper, as- serts, "we're not conceding anything yet." "We weren't outplayed much, if any. We could have won." A Boston victory Sunday would return the teams to Detroit Tuesday night for seventh game, which may or may not decide the semi-finals since a deadlock is possible. Practice Game University of Michigan in September 1942, and he dropped his civilian sta- tus the following July when he donned a sailor uniform as a member of the V-12 program. Besides being on the golf team, O'Hara is also a member of Triangle, Vulcans; and is on the Senior Committee in the Engineering College. Golf Games Easy Golf comes as a second nature to Paul because he has been active in the sport since he was five years old. His early interest was aroused be- cause his father and two older broth= ers were able golfers, and the idea of family competition lured him on until he finally became the family's number one player. While attending University of De-I troit High School, O'Hara not only was a varsity linkster but also played on the basketball team; earning three major letters in each sport. In his senior year he captained the golf squad, winning the Detroit City golf title for the third successive year and he took the individual crown for the James Shand, copped the 150-yard backstroke crown handily in 1:41.8. Second in this event was Bob White of Indiana. The real excitement was afforded by the battle for third place between Wolverine Russell Potter, OSU's Bob Dennis, and Don Iseman, Cornell entrant. Potter, a new addition to the Maize and Blue starting lineup, held down last place until the final lap, when he let go with a burst of speed to over- !'3ums' Gone, R!ciseyGrooms Neu Dodgers sow start y iazn guWI LU letter at Detroit's Western High, Doherty came into his own as a cinder star at the City College ofj Detroit, now Wayne University, where he competed successfully in the shot put, javelin, high jump, broad jump, high and low hurdles, and pole vault.

In 1941, he team- ed with Al Watrous Jr., whose father is a noted golfer and who has done much to aid Paul's style, to win the Meadowbrook Invitational title. The next year he and Watrous Jr. reached the final round in the Grosse Ile tour- nament. Commenting on the chances of the 1945 linksters, Michigan's golf cap- tain believes that there is a strong indication of winning the Big Ten crown for the fourth straight year. O'Hara says that with "veterans John Jenswold, Phil Mar cellus, and John Tews on the team, and a fine coach like Bill Barclay, the Wolverine golf- ers should have a very successful season. Give To The Red Cross Through with record-breaking, Doherty settled down to coaching, and, if anything, has been even more successful in that capacity. He began his career at Southeast- ern High in Detroit, doubling back as a mathematics teacher. In 1929, the same. year that he broke the N. A. A. U. record, fortune smiled on him again when he was tend- ered the job of assistant track coach at Princeton University. The following year found him at Michigan, also in the capacity of as- sistant track coach. When head coach Charlie Hoyt moved on to Yale in 1940, Doherty moved into the driver's seat at Michigan, and has been there ever since. In those six years, Doherty has compiled a coaching record which most coaches only dream about. ay to set a ner National A. A. U. Decathlon record. Whit Wyatt Sale Hints Desire for Youngsters NEW YORK, March 30.-(P)--The Brooklyn Dodger score cards this year should carry a notation to the effect that any resemblance to the Bums of other years is strictly coin- cidental, and Mr. Rickey will take care of such a situation in due time. Branch Rickey and Uncle Sam have been doing a strip tease with the Brooklyn roster, until today it bears but a hazy resemblance to what it was in the glory days when the Borough of Brooklyn was just one big baseball park as far as en- thusiasm was concerned. Now Whitlow Wyatt has joined the list of Camillis and Medwick and Vaughans and Hermans and Reisers as gone but not forgotten heroes. Wyatt has been sold down the river to the Phillies, a fate that at one time would have been considered worse than baseball death, although this year it could even be a break. WI o know, the Pxiiilies night win the pennant. Sale Indicates Policy Anyway, the sale of Wyatt either indicates that Rickey is convinced the 36-year-old pitcher is through, or that he's getting rid of him under his policy of youth, which he carried' to something of an extreme last year. Wyatt was of little help except to opposing teams last year, and if he came back with a sound arm this year it would be something of a miracle. The decline of Wyatt from a high- ly-paid star of 1941 and 1942 to his present status of a property of little assessed value again demonstrates the fragile and fleeting qualities of a pro baseball career. Hold-Out Four Years Ago Just four years ago he was a major factor in the Dodgers' march to the pennant, and he was as independent as a mouse in a cheese factory when it came to talking 1942 contract. He held out until March 22, 1942, and signed for a reported $17,500. The departure of the Georgian leaves just four active players on the 11941 championship club still on the roster. They are Dixie Walker, Mick- ey Owen, Curt Davis and Augie Ga- Ilan. Of these only Davis has report- ed. take both Dennis and Iseman, thus snagging the third place berth. The closest finish of the evening was seen in the 220-yard freestyle encounter. Columbia's contestant, Rogers, and Schlanger, Ohio State's freshman, were within a hairs- breadth of each other throughout the whole race. Rogers just managed to nose ahead of the Buckeye to win by a finger-tip. The five remaining events of the championships will be run-off at 8:00 p. m. tomorrow night at the Varsity Pool. They are the 100-yard free- style, 200-yard breaststroke, 440-yard freestyle, 400-yard freestyle relay, and diving competition from the three- meter board.
