Thus baseball fans will still have an opportunity to get two looks at the Michigan team against its first tough Conference compeition. Earl Block and Bo Bowman will be on the mound for the Maize and Blue, facing Al Scharf and Marv Rothblatt of the Illini. The rest of the Michigan line-up remains the some, ,with Rosema, Tomasi, Robinson, and Kell in the infield, Weisenberger, Nussbaumer, and Chappis the outer gardeners, and Swanson hehind the plate. FAVORED: Track Team in Dual Clash at Purdue Today By JACK MARTIN Heavily favored to take top honors, twenty-five Michigan thinec lads launch their outdoor dual meet cam- paign this afternoon against Purdue at Lafayette, Indiana. Regardless of the final outcome, however, several of the races and field events promise some extremly keen competition. In addition, Coach Ken Doherty has taken this early season opportunity to experiment a little, switching some of the men to different events. Close Fight in Discus There will be sharp struggles for first place in both the shot put and discus. Bill Bangert, Purdue's singing weight man, will clash with the Wol- verine's noted freshman ace, Chuck Fonville, in the shot, while Big George Ostroot will attempt to out-throw the same Boilermaker in the discus. Bangert defeated both Fonville and Ostroot indoors in the Purdue Relays shot put, but only last week was upset in the Drake Relays and had to be satisfied with third. He came back next day, however, to capture the discus title. At the same-time, Ostroot was copping a second in the Penn Relays which indicates how close the fight will be this afternoon. Harris in High Juenp Michigan's Bob Harris and Dick Kilpatrick of Purdue are expected to batle it out for high jump honors Kilpatrick won the championship in the recent Indoor Conference meet, while Harris grabbed second just a shade below him. Two of Michigan's top performers have been shifted from their usual events. Val Johnson, one of Doherty's leading sprinters, is scheduled for the quarter-mile in contrast to his custo- mary appearance in the 100 and 220- yard dashes. Taking Johnson's place in the sprints will be Horace Coleman, who until today's meet competed in the quarter. A HEALTHY HEAD!!

Back on a peace-time basis after struggling through four years of war to .keep alive its unbroken run of nearly three quarters of a century, the run for the roses spearheads sports post-war caviar and cham- pagne era, this time, playing host to a huge horde of fans from all corners of the nation, who had money flowing around Derby-Town like mint juleps. Maine Chance Enters Three As the Derby-eve Julip Jamboree went on like Niagara through the town tonight, the byword was "As Maine goes, so goes the derby-Maine Chance, that is." For Mrs. Elizabeth Graham, the lipstick and face powder princess, had three horses from her Maine Chance Farm in the field of 17-the first three-horse entry in a decade and the solid choice to pick up the $96,- 400 winner's paycheck from this richest of all derbies. Derby Wide Open Yet, despite the presence of this "three-aces-back-to-back" in Lord Boswell, Knockdown and Perfect Bahram, there was no Whirlaway or Twenty Grand this time. And on paper it looked to be the widest open Derby Col. Matt Winn has put on in years. This was especially so because after five straight days of rain and more crying skies forecast for tomorrow. forenoon, it was virtually certain to come up mud 'or worse for post time at 5:15 p.m. (CDT) when the band sends "My Old Kentucky Home" whispering over the ancient Downs. And it has long been part of Der- by tradition that anything can hap- pen when the chocolate pudding is on the strip here, particularly in that long quarter-mile stretch that is known as the heart-break highway of this mile and a quarter meander.

The netmen's only loss of the sea- son was suffered at the hands of Wayne's powerful Tartars last Tues- day in the closest match of the sea- son, 5-4, after winning last week-end from Purdue and Indiana. Illini Powerful The Illini will present the toughest competition that the netters have met to date, and this afternoon's match will show the spectators the best talent that any home tilt will produce this year. Coach LeRoy Weir will alter his lineup slightly to meet the onslaught of the netmen from Champaign. Jim Evans, who didn't compete in singles in the Wayne matches but previous to that was undefeated in competition at the number five position, will play at number four today. Dean McClus- ky will tangle in the number five position and will face Fred Steers. Ray Von Spreckelson will tangle at the number four slot for Illinois. IHersh Faces Migdow The rest of the singles lineup re- mains intact with the same men com- peting. Jack Hersh will be at his accustomed number one position and will play Benny Migdow, Illinois' brilliant freshman southpaw. In the number two bracket, Michi- gan's Bill Mikulich and Roger Downs will compete. Downs was Big Ten singles champion when he played for Northwestern in 1943. Fred Welling- ton, undefeated in singles play this season, will again perform in the number three position, and his oppo- nent will be Jim Gates for the Illini. Hal Cook will be Michigan's con- testant at number six against Mel Randoll. Doubles Lineup Switched For, the first time this season Coach Weir will change his doubles lineup for the Illinois match. Playing one will be Hersh and Evans. Evans formerly competed with the number two duo, but distinguished himself in the Wayne match and has ben pro- moted to the number one combina- tion. They will face Migdow and Gates for Illinois.
