Tekini the CIut
By DAVE LOEWENBERG
Associate Sports Editor
MANY INDIVIDUALS, when considering athletics as a profession, turn
either to baseball or football because of the financial.advantages asso-
ciated with these two sports. However, a third sport, golf, is very much
in the running as evidenced by returns from the winter circuit.
Already this season, 14 big money tournaments have been completed.
In aggregate, approximately $100,000 was put into circulation among the
players. It is expected that between now and December the total will
be swelled by another $150,000 in cash awards.
The tournament whirl will be inaugurated in New York with a
special 72 hole match between two of golfdom's top competitors,'Byron
Nelson and Sanmy Snead. From there the players move,to Connecticut
on June 1, followed by trips to Montreal, Philadelphia, and the big
Victory National June 27-July 1 in Chicago.
.OTHER OUTSTANDING dates are the St. Paul Open, the All-American
tournament in Chicago, July 26-29, and meets in Memphis, Knoxville,
Nashville, and Dallas.
If by chance the P. G. A. decides to hold its $25,000 title event the
amount of greenbacks in circulation will be without parallel in the history
of the game.
Because of the lavish nature of the prize lists, one might expect the
tournaments sponsors to take quite a drubbing. However, several factors
dispute this point of view.
First of all, attendance has been exceptionally good for all of the
wartime tournaments and there is no reason right now to expect any
slump in attendance. In fact, an increase would be far more conceiv-
able.
ANOTHER THING in favor of the sponsors is the fact that golf has
contributed generously to charity and war fund activities. This gives
them the much sought after approval from the general public.
One more point deserving attention is the great rivalry between
Nelson and Snead. Nelson's record the past 16 months definitely
establishes him as one of America's greatest golfers. This, of course,
makes excellent box office appeal.
Six months ago when Snead was discharged from service Nelson's
supremacy was undisputed. Now, the colorful West Virginian is making
a real bid for Nelson's position, which further enlivens the prospect for a
successful season, and helps to justify the size of the prize lists.

Michigan To Compete Against
Ohio, Illinois and Great Lakes

By BILL LAMBERT
Michigan's baseball bats exploded
violently in a 17-hit barrage, yester-

'RED' LOUTHEN

day afternoon at Ferry Field, as the
Wolverines registered their third win
of the season over Notre Dame, 12-3.
Coach Fisher's club really found
their batting eyes, as every member
of the squad except pitcher Ray
"Red" Louthen, stepped into the hit
column. Walt .Kell, Jack Weisen-
burger, and Dominic Tomasi all rap-
ped out three safeties in the slug-
fest.
Louthen, who met Irish hurler
Jack Barrett for the second time
this season, pitchedtfour-hit ball for
the nine innings, and struck out 11
batters who faced him. Barrett was
relieved in the big Michigan eighth,
when LaBrau came in to finish the
contest.
Wolverines Go To Town
The bottom half of the eighth saw
14 Wolverine batters step to the
plate, in a rally which brought in
10 runs. Michigan led by the slii
margin of 2-0 going into this frame,
but five hits and five bases on balls
put the game on ace. After Gregor
and Don Lund had gotten on base
with a walk and a bunt, Tom Rosema
Box Score

pounded out a long triple, sending
the duo across the plate.
Dominic Tomasi's single scored
Rosema, and two plays later, both
hie and Louthen were driven in by
Weisenburger. After the bases were
loaded, Lund, who came up for the
second time, tripled, scoring Kell,
Gregor, and Weisenburger. The last
two tallies were the result of Ros-
ema's single, and finally Tomasi end-
ed the longest inning for the Wolver-
ines this year by grounding out.
Nelson Hits Homer
The Michigan second saw Bill Nel-
son, veteran leftfielder, step to the
plate and smack out a home run,
thus netting the first Wolverine score.
The third frame also saw the Maize
and Blue bunch together two hits for
the second run. Kell led off with a
single to right, Weisenburger doubl-
ed, sending him to third where he
scored a moment later on a wild
pitch. Gregor then walked, Lund hit
into a double play, Weisenburger not
being able to score, and Nelson end-
ed the inning grounding out, short
to first.
Notre Dame picked up their first
run in the sixth, when Billy Hassett
and Capt. Frank Gilhooley got on
base on an error and a single re-
spectively. Pitcher Barrett went
down to first on a fielder's choice,
Hossett taking third, and then scor-
ing on Louthen's balk. The top half
of the eighth proved good for two
other Irish runs.
Game Today
Michigan tangles again this after-
noon at 3:00 (EWT) in the second
game of the series. Coach Fisher
will send his ace left-hander, Bliss
"Bo" Bowman to the mound.

Linksters Encounter
Northwestern Today
Encountering Northwestern Uni-
versity at Evanston today, Michigan
golfers will be seeking their fourth
victory in their second Conference'
match of the 1945 season.
A five-man squad has been selected
by Coach Bill Barclay to -face the
Wildcats as the team aims for their
third straight win. Leading the golf-
ers around the links will be Captain
Paul O'Hara, followed by Phil Mar-
cellus, John Tews, and two first-year
men Ken Morrey and Bob Ernst.
Tough Match Today
The Maize and Blue golf mentor
believes that today's match will be
as tough as the Ohio State contest,
which the Wolverines dropped in a
hard fought battle 15-12, but if the
weather improves and the course is
in good shape, the linksmen should
be victorious.
Barclay's men have a record so far
this season of three wins against
ore setback, suffered at the hands of
the Buckeye team. Having defeated
the University of Detroit twice, both
times by a score of 15%/-212, and
taken Western Michigan in last Sat-
urda«.'s tilt, narrowly missing a shut-
out by carding a total of 171/2 points
to the Bronco's score of 12, the golf-
ers will be shooting for their initial
Big Ten triumph against the Wild-
cats.

"Tennis Men Face
Badgers, Gophers
Michigan netmen, competing in
their first triangular meet of the
season, will tangle with Wisconsin
and Minnesota today at Evanston,
Ill.
' Captain Roger Lewis, who has been
playing sterling tennis this year, as
was evidenced by his upset of Notre
Dame's Charlie Sampson. runner-up
in 1944's National Intercollegiate
Tennis Tournament last week, will
handle the number one berth.
It is difficult to name the rest of
the lineup in order, because of the
switches which Coach Weir made in
the Tuesday clash against a weak
Western Michigan aggregation. Weir
has not revealed the make-up of the
varsity squad and it is not known
whether he will use the revised roster
or the original one.
Nevertheless, Maize and Blue fans
can count on seeing Jack Hirsch,
Jinx Johnson, Roy Boucher, Bill
Haynes, and Dave Post or Jim Wyn-
garden competing in the singles
brackets, while three combinations of
these seven men will compete in the
doubles matches.
