T'racksers Will Seek Second'
Win over Boilermakers Today
Wolverines Will Be Defending Champions *
In Conference Meet at Champaign, May 26

Faced with the expectation of their
second Saturday in the mud, Michi-
gan's track squad will seek its final
victory before the conference cham-
pionships when they meet Purdue to-
day at 1:30 (12:30 CWT) at the Fer-
ry Field track.
Track mentor Ken Doherty will
have his last opportunity to see his
team in action before the Confer-
ence Meet at Champaign, Ill. on May
26. Here, the Wolverines will be de-
fending champions.
Wolverines Favored
In the Purdue meet today, the Wol-
verines are rated strong favorites to
maintain their dominance over the
Boilermakers. The Wolverines have
met Purdue once before during the
outdoor season. In this meet, Mich-
igan soundly trounced the Boiler-
makers,, scoring 80 points to 40.
However, the Wolverines are liable
to find the going tough, especially in
the dashes. Here, the Boilermakers
have Boris "Babe" Dimancheff and
Ben Harvey, both reputed to be ex-
cellent sprinters.
To meet this threat, Coach Doh-
erty has Julian Witherspoonwand
Henry Fonde in the 100, while
"Spoon" and Val Johnson normally
compete in the 220. This week, how-
ever, Coach Doherty has chosen to
keep Johnson under wraps as the.
muscle strain he incurred in last
week's quadrangular meet may still
bother him.

Fourth Victory
CHICAGO, May 18-()-Unde-
feated Dave Ferris scored his third
shutout and fourth Win as the Bos-
ton Red Sox nipped the first-place
Chicago White Sox, 2-0, on Bob
Johnson's two-run double here to-
day.
The defeat dumped the White Sox
into second place behind the New
York Yankees, who had a night
game at St. Louis.
Ferris, yielding only four hits,
bested Joe Haynes in a sizzling duel
that was settled by Johnson's two-
base knock in the eighth, the last of
five hits off Haynes.

"the feature race of the afternoon"
when Purdue's ace quarter miler,
Wallace Desterhaft will meet Wol-
verine Dick Forrestel in an evenly
matched race. Forrestel placed third
in last week's meet when he lost his
shoe at the 220 pole.
The distance events, Michigan's
specialty, are not conceded to the
Wolverines. Bob Hawk, crack miler
and half-miler is scheduled to give
whoever Coach Doherty nominates
to these races a severe test. Doherty
can choose from among the Hume
twins, Archie Parsons, Bob Thoma
son, Chuck Birdsall, Dick Barnard
and Walter Fairservis for his entries
in the half-mile, mile and two miles.
In the field events, the Wolverines
are expecting trouble only in the
high jump and broad jumps. In the
high jump, Purdue has Dick Kil-
patrick, who copped the Drake Relay
title, while in the broad jump, the
Boilermaker's chief threat is Diman-
cheff, who consistently has done over
20 feet.
Tigers To Play
Doubleheaders
With Senators
Postponed Openers
To Be Played Today
DETROIT,. May 18-(P)-Rained
out of their series opener today for
the fifth postponement in as many
days for each club, the Washington
Senators and Detroit Tigers quickly
scheduled a doubleheader for Satur-
day, jamming their first four-game
series of the season into two days. A
doubleheader already was set for
Sunday.
Newhouser, Benton To Hurl
Hal Newhouser (2-3) and Al Ben-
ton (5-0) were Detroit's pitching
nominees for the first; ~of the two
straight twin bills, opposing Johnny
Niggeling (1-2) and Roger Wolff
(3-1) of the Nats.
Newhouser, who whipped Washing-
ton five times in a row in 1944, will
be making his second start in search
of his third win this season. New
York beat the Tiger southpaw 7 to 3
in his last time out May 11.
Benton will be out to stretch a
string of 24 successive scoreless in-
nings hurled in his last three games.
He whitewashed St. Louis 1 to 0
May 6 and beat Boston 2 to 0 May
13.
Wolff Not Too Good
Wolff hasn't been too successful
against the Tigers, losing twice to
them last season without a victory
and absorbing four defeats against a
single win over Detroit in 1943 while
pitching for Philadelphia.
The Tigers are scheduled to make
their first eastern swing of the season'
following the Washington series. First
stop is at Philadelphia, where Wed-
nesday they open a four-game series.
Today's washout was the 13th of
the young season for Detroit and the
seventh in the last nine days.

By RUTH ELCONIN
Teeing off today in their second
home contest of the season, Michigan
linksmen will face Ohio State at the
University golf course opening with
the doubles matches at 8:30 a.m.
(EWT) and the single play-offs
scheduled to start at 1 p.m. (EWT).
Both teams will be striving to con-
tinue winning streaks with the Buck-
eye golfers aiming for their tenth
straight and the Wolverines hoping
to gain their fourth consecutive tri-
umph. Leading the Maize and Blue
squad will be Captain Paul O'Hara,
followed by Phil Marcellus, John
Tews, John Jenswold, and two first-
year men, Ken Morey and Bob Ernst.
Coach Bill Barclay said that the
squad has had only a minimum
amount of practice due to the'
heavy and constant downpours this
past week, but the match will be
played today regardless of the
weather conditions.
Saturday, May 26, the Big Ten
golf championships will be held at
the Wilmette. Country Club which is
just outside of Evanston, Ill.
Michigan golfers will be seeking

their fourth straight Conference title
and will enter the tournament as
favorites due to the fact that four
members of the title-holding 1944
team, O'Hara, Marcellus, Jenswold,
and Tews, will participate in the
meet. Not only did 'the Wolverines
capture tle team crown, but Jens-
wold woi the individual title from
Marcellus who was Big Ten runner-
up.
The contest gives evidence of
being a three-way battle between
Michigan, Ohio State, and North-
western, with Minnesota capable
of upsetting any of the three
squads. Chicago and Iowa are the
only two schools in the Conference
which are not entered in the tour-
nament.
The Wildcats have a record of
seven wins and one defeat suffered
at the hands of the Maize and Blue
linksmen last Saturday, 14/2-122.
Ted Payseur's charges are paced by
a pair of freshmen aces, Jack Atten
and Bob Abrams, and playing on
their home course they will be tough
to beat.
Ohio State, with a perfect record
so far this season, is reported to
have a well-balanced team with a
pair of two-year veterans, Bob
Kampfer and John Lorma, backed
by freshmen Howard Baker and
Richard Barr and senior Daniel
Rocker. Barclay believes that to-
day's tilt between the Wolverine
and Buckeye linksters will definite-
ly throw some light on the possible
results of next Saturday's matches.
Minnesota's team is led by Louis
Lick, the NCAA champ, and he is
ably supported by Lewis Knutson,
the Minnesota State College cham-
pion at St. Olaf College last year.
Other returning letter-men are Jerry
Millner and Ken Mack, who give the
Golden Gophers' squad seasoned
depth.

Ten OppositionI
Undefeated Netmien
Out for Seventh Win
Michigan's undefeated tennis squad
will endeavor to keep their record
unblemished tomorrow when they
take on both Ohio State and North-
western at Columbus.
In search of their seventh straight
victory, the Wolverines will prob-
ably field the same crew that tram-
pled over Minnesota. 7-2, and Wis-
consin, 8-1, last week-end at Evans-
ton.
Lewis Is First
Leading off in the number one spot,
Maize and Blue captain. Roger Lew-
is, is heavily favored to clinch his
matches on the basis of his past per-
I formances this season. Jinx John-
son, who cleaned up in last weeks
triangular, winning all four of his
two singles and two doubles matches,
will hold down the second spot.
The third singles bracket will be
handled by Gordon Naugle, fresh
from taking two singles contests; one
from Cornell of Minnesota,' 6-3: the
other from the Badger's Verkina;
6-0, 6-1. Following him in tht fourth
position is Dave Post. who teamied
with Johnson at Evanston to cap-
ture both their doubles encounters.
Boucher To Compete
Roy Boucher and Bill Haynes are
expected to round out the number
five and six places, respectively
These two Wolverines were double-
winners in the Minnesota- Wiscon-
sin clash and are considered strong
anchors for the well-balanced squad.
Last Saturday's doubles teams
were Boucher - Naugle, Johnson -
Post, and Lewis-Haynes, but Coach
LeRoy Weir might switch these
around, to better combat the OSU
and Northwestern combinations.
Buckeyes Are Strong
The Buckeyes are reported to have
a fairly strong squad, bolstered by
the return of seven lettermen. Their
record this season lists four victo-
ries as against no" defeats. Oberlin,
Miami, Purdue and Illinois have fal-
len under the Scarlet and Grey axe,
which has amassed a total of 26
points in the process, as against its
opponents seven.
Jose Coriat, who hails from Vene-
zuela, leads Ohio's list of probabie
starters. In addition, Coach Herman
Wirthwein's team will probably in-
clude Bob Bowen, Tom Cantwell, Al
Franklin and Aris Franklin.
Northwestern's powmer cannot, be
estimated accurately, even by Wild-
cat coach Bennet, who has been un-
able to drill his squad intensely due
to adverse weather conditions. The
only returning letterman the Purple
and White have is Dave White, but
they possess a large squad.
