Wayne University was fourth with 26 points, Alma had 71/2, Central Michigan 3, Albion 21/2 and Hillsdale no points. Versatile Lorenzo Wright of Wayne University was high point man with 18 points.

Matt Winn, president of Churchill Downs, announced today. This represents the largest number of eligibles for the turf classic since 1929 and paves the way for what many believe will be one of the wid- est open Derbies in recent years. Col. Winn announced details of the historic race less than a week after the federal ban was removed from the sport. The Derby, first race in the turf's big three events, will be followed by the Preakness at Balti- more, June 16, and the Belmont Stakes at New York, June 23. Race Postponed The original date for. the race for the roses, a gold trophy and $75,000 in added money was May 5 but it had to be postponed because of war- time conditions. The nominations for the 71st run- ning of the Derby include most of the country's outstanding three-year- olds. Among them are John Marsch's Free For All, whose 1:41 3/5 out of the gate for a mile in today's work- out at Churchill Downs was one of the best of the year. Art Roi, a stablemate, covered the same distance in 1:44 today. Many Nominated Other outstanding three-year-olds nominated for the Derby include Cal- umet Farm's Pot O' Luck and Battle Fire; Greentree Stables' Dockstader; Col. E. R. Bradley's Burning Dream and Bail Bond; William Ziegler's Es- teem; and Belair Stud's Johnsport. This year's racing ban left little on which to judge the field for the mile and a quarter Derby classic. Thus, it was seen here as a wide open affair. Rain Cancels' Baseball Tilt Rain caused the cancellation of the third ball game in two week-ends yesterday when Michigan's baseball squad dropped the final game in a two-day series with Notre Dame from its schedule. The Wolverines, three times victor- icus over the Irish this season and winners of Friday's contest by a 12-3 score, will not re-schedule, the Notre Dame tilt, Coach Ray Fisher an- nounced yesterday. With a record of six wins against three losses to the Irish in the past two 3 ears, the Wolverine nine can boast a decisive edge on the South Benders. Although this year's Notre Dame squad displayed skill in the field, the pitching department proved the weak link in Irish unity. Eisenhart Wins Mile From Hume (Continued from Page 1) distance, as unknown Tom Cara crossed the line ahead of an un- wieldy nine-man field in :50.8. Mich- igan entrant Dick Forrestal lost a shoe in the backstretch and ran the last 200 yards without it to finish a strong third. Walker Takes Both Hurdles Illinois hurdle star George Walker became the meet's only double winner as he broke the tape in front in both the high and low hurdles, nosing out Ohio State's Wilmer Jackson in the highs by less than a foot in :14.9 and easily outdistancing the low hur- dle field in :24.1. JulianhWitherspoon gave the Wol- verines their first of four first places as he edged out Marce Gonzales by a scant half-stride in the 100-yard dash. He later lost out to Klemmer and Gonzales in the 220, as Klem- mer turned in the best performance of the day with a :21.6 effort over the sloppy track. Michigan Shows Distance Strength Michigan showed its distance strength by winning both the half- mile and two-mile with comparative ease as Ross Hume loped through the 880 in 1:59.2 and Charlie Birdsall took his two-mile specialty in 10:05.2. Archie Parsons turned in one of the best performances of his career for Michigan in the half-mile as he out- ran Eisenhart in the stretch to finish a strong second, four yards behind Hume. After his unfortunate experience in the 440, Forrestal came back in the mile relay to clinch a Michigan vic- tory with a fast third leg, opening up a 20-yard lead for anchorman Bill Shepherd after taking the baton two yards behind the leading man. The Wolverine quartet's time of 3:24.6 was excellent considering the condi- tion of the running surface. High Jump Is Key Event The high jump proved one of the key events of the meet as Great Lakes racked up eight points to go into the lead for the first time. John Heintz- Bluejackets' 43-41 Win Undecided Until Results of Broadjump Known man, who also accounted for a much- needed second place in the broad jump, topped the field with a 6 ft. 1 3/4 in. effort as teammates Orval Gillette and Bob Churches finished in ties for second and fourth. Gillette, Warren Bentz of Michi- gan, and Ohio State's Johnny Schmidt ended in a three-way dead- lock for first in the pole vault, and Stan Sprague of Illinois beat out the favorite, Ohio State's Jack Dugger, in the shot put. Dugger came back to win the discus with a heave of 139 ft. 2 7/8 in. With attention focussed on the broad jump, Henry Aihara of Illi- nois, Big Ten champ in the event, placed first with a leap of 22 ft. 11 in., but the meet was decided when Heintzman and Klemmer finished second and third, giving the Blue- jackets five points and victory. Michigan is next scheduled to meet Purdue University in a dual meet here Saturday. The Wolverines have al- ready bested the Boilermakers once this season, scoring 80 points to their 40 in a triangular meet in which Mi- ami University was also represented. ,. ODT Director Paints Pessimstic Picture for the World of Sports ..: Q *- Waring- NEVER TRAVEL WITHOUT TRAVELERS' CHEQUES Cash may get lost or stolen!

Monroe Johnson. It already has been demonstrated in redeployment following Germany's defeat, Johnson said today, that the "impact on sports like everything else will be terrific." Going over the sports situation in an interview, Johnson commented that: There is "no possibility' 'of tjie All-Star Major League game being played; The Kentucky Deity, Preakness, Belmont Stakes and other horse rac- ing headliners will be conducted on a "trolley car" basis; The World Series cannot be held unless both pennants are won in one city as St. Louis did last season; Bowl Gamnes Out Bowl football games "simply will be out of the question" along with the College All-Star game in Chicago and similar contests; All college football games must be played on the "home" field of one of the competing teams. This in- cludes the Army-Navy game, played in Baltimore last season as a war loan feature. Japs Must Quit First "And even if Japan quits by next September, it will be about six months before we recover enough to help any- body," Johnson said. "The only hope is for the Japanese to see the light in the next six weeks or so." Johnson's remarks struck the sports world like a bucket of cold water.
