Browns Rally with Two Runs
In Ninth To Shade Tigers, 7-6

By The Associated Press
DEROIT, April 17-Scoring twice
in the eighth on Walt Judnich's home
run and twice more in the ninth
against a parade of three pitchers,
the St. Louis Browns came from be-
hind today to nose out the Detroit
Tigers 7 to 6.
Vern Stephens, Brownie shortstop
who went to Mexico and back just
before the season opened, knocked in
the tying run with a long fly in the
ninth, his first time at bat this year.
Zoldak Winning Pitcher
The victory went to southpaw relief
pitcher Sam Zoldak, who worked only
1 2-3 innings after relieving starter
Newman Shirley. Virgil Trucks,
charged with all seven St. Louis runs,
was toie loser although Stubby Over-
mire and George Caster saw service
for Detroit in the ninth.
Although Shirley allowed only two
hits in the first six innings, wildness
had him in trouble often before the
Tigers knocked him out of the box in
the middle of a string of five straight
hits in the seventh, which produced
three runs and gave Trucks a 6 to 3
lead.
Judnich Homers
Trucks, who fanned seven Brownies
in the first seven innings, served up
Judnich's home run ball with one
out in the eighth after Lou Finney
had reached first, on Pinky Higgins'
error. Those two runs shaved the
Tigers' edge to 6-5 and set the stage
for the winning Brownie rally.
Catcher Frank Mancuso, first up
in the ninth, slapped a single to left
and went to second when first base-

Archie went in to run for Mancuso.
Joe Grace batted for Zoldak and
Overmire was called in to relieve
Trucks.
With a lefthander on the mound,
Grace was called back to the dugout
and Glen McQuillen took the bat.
Overmire fielded McQuillen's bunt,
but Higgins failed to cover third and
Stubby had to throw to first for the
putout, both runners advancing.

Ted Williams had a perfect day at
bat. He hit a single, and two doubles
his first three times at bat and drew
three walks.

Numerals for first-year men will
be awarded at the end of this
year's outdoor track season for
the first tne since 1943, it was
announced yesterday.
The presentation of the awards
will furnish added incentive to all
aspiring athletes who come out
for the cinder snort for the first
time this season.
The first-year thinelads, under
the tutelage of assistant-coach
Don Canham, are just beginning
to settle down to several weeks of
serious work on the outdoor track
at Ferry Field in preparation for
coming meets.
A special schedule of telegraphic
meets with first-year cinder squads
of other Conference schools is now
being mapped out. It is hoped
that the completed card will in-
clude at least three or four such
long-distance affairs.
Many events are still "wide
open" as the outdoor sessions get
under way. Men are needed vitally
in practically all the races and
field events.
INTRAMURAL
Sportfolio
By DICK BURTON
Following neatly in line with the
recent epidemic of opening days in
the majcr and minor leagues and the
Western Conference are the initial
engagements of the intramural soft-
ball circuits which are scheduled for
next Monday afternoon.
Stars from the independent
ranks, the residence halls, and the
campus fraternities will dominate
the spotlight as over three dozen
campus diamond squads vie for
their respective baseball crowns.
There is still room for more play-
ers in the Independent Loop, how-
ever, and anyone desiring to get in
the forthcoming chase should con-
tact Earl Riskey at the Sports
Building immediately.
It is now definite that there will be
some adjustments made in the final
standings of last Wednesday's Resi-
dence Hall track meet. Several thin-
clads who participated in the events
were revealed as members of the var-
sity track squad which, under intra-
mural regulations, makes them in-
eligible for the meet.
Said intramural director, Riskey,
"It certainly is not fair that mem-
bers of the varsity squad who are,
consequently, working out every-
day should be allowed to compete
with intramural athletes who are
not in comparable condition."
Officials are now re-tabulating the
results pending announcement of the
winners. -

Apparently it's going to take more
than a world war to upset the prow-
ess of Bill Logan on the badminton
courts. The former member of the
Canadian Air Corps who won the
all-campus badminton tournament
in 1942, came back last Friday to de-
feat Lan Hannington and reclaim
his right to the title.
Hannington took the runner-up
step on the ladder, but not without a
fight, as is revealed by his victory
of 11-15 in the first game of the
championship match. Logan barely
nudged him cut of the second game
17-14 and then went on to take the
third contest and the match.
Loming as one of the out-
standing sporting spectacles of the
season is the all-campus gymnas-

tic meet to be held on May 1st in
the Sports Building. Drawing card
for the tournament will be Newton
Lokan, former national intercol-
legiate gym champion, who will
demonstrate several stunts in be-
tween events.

RESULTS

By WALT KLEE
Injuries to Bob Nussbaumer and
Bob Chappuis in yesterday's practice
session aggravated Coach Ray Fish-
er's problem of naming a starting
team for the 1946 baseball team's
debut against Wayne tomorrow after-
noon at Ferry Field.
The two outfielders bring the to-
tal of those not in the best of condi-
tion to seven men, including all three
of the men Fisher had planned to
start in the outfield.
Five Others Injured
In addition to Nussbaumer and
Chappuis, Don Robinson, Jack Weis-
enberger, Tom Rosema, Joe Sobeleski
and Duane MacKeachie are all out
of action with bad legs.
The odd thing about the injuries is
that only one of them is because of a
sore arm, the usual complaint of
baseball players. The rest have been
caused by an epidemic of turned and
twisted ankles or knees.
Nussbaumer Hurts Ankle
Nussbaumer fell prey to bad luck
yesterday when he turned his right
ankle while sliding home after he
had connected for a triple early in
the afternoon. He was hurried up to
the training room where cold water
was applied in an effort to keep down
the swelling.
The extent of the injury won't be
known until sometime this afternoon
when he tries to run on the injured
limb. However he is listed as prob-
ably being unable to start in tomor-
row's opener.
Chappuis May Be Ready
Then during tie waning minutes of.
practice yesterday Dick Bodycombe
caught Chappuis 6n the left elbow
with one of his fast balls. *Last night
the elbow was swollen ahd gave the
outfielder considerable pain. but the
Wolverine mentor was -in hopes that
Chappuis would be able to start to-
morrow.
Robinson was the first man to be
placed on the injured list when he ag-
gravated an injury that was first in-
curred while. in Italy with the Air
Force. He had. previously turned
his knee in the -Minnesota football
game last fall and early in the base-
ball practice season.
Robinson May Pinch-Hit
The hard hitting shortstop has
been able to engage in batting prac-
tice the past few days and may get
into the weekend series in the role of
a pinch hitter.
Then Weisenberger who had been
switched from the infield to the out-
field to make room for Robinson hurt
himself sliding last week, which cre-
ated the problem of finding a third
man to man the short field position.
Rosema Will Start
Rosema has been bothered for the
past two weeks by a spiking in his
right foot but is expected to be at
first when the umpire shouts "play
ball" tomorrow. At present Rosema is
the only available first sacker, Jack
Tallet having to withdraw from the

team becaus'e of studies in the Law
School Und the failUres of Ed Bahlow
to show up for practice this week.
Sobeleski and MacKeachie, two
reserve outfielders complete the list
of those who may not be able to play
in the weekend series.
Fisher has not yet decided on the
lineup he will use tomorrow other
than naming Jimmy Brown to com-
plete the infield that will be made up
of Walt Kell at third, Dom Tomasi
at the keystone sack and Rosema at
first. Bliss Bowman, a pitcher by
trade, will take over either the left
ar center field positions.
Cubs Blast Reds;
Giants, Dodgers,
Cards Winners
By The Associated Press
CINCINNATI, April 17-The Chi-
cago Cubs made it two in a row over
the Cincinnati Reds today, winning
11-7 in a free hitting contest which
saw Phil Cavaretta, the 1945 Na-
tional League batting champion, belt
his first homer of the season in the
ninth inning.
Giants Win, 5-2
NEW YORK, April 17-Bob Joyce,
31-year old righthander who won 31
games for the San Francisco club
last year, held the Phillies to seven
hits today and struck out nine men
as the New York Giants eased out a
5-2 victory.
Dodgers in 4-2 Victor
BOSTON, April 17-Rookie Hank
Behrman, a 24-year old righthancer
who was purchased from the Mon-
treal farm club Monday, turned back
the Boston Braves today with nine
scattered hits as Brooklyn evened the
opening series, with a 4-2 victory.
Cards Recover, 6-0
ST. LOUIS, April 17--A 13-hit at-
tack by the St. Louis Cardinals, who
snapped out of their opening-day
lethargy, and 7-hit pitching by south-
paw Max Lanier gave the 1946 Na-
tional League pennant favorites a 6-0
