Finishing behind Assault in this order were: Spy Song, Hampden, Lord Boswell, Knockdown, Alamond, Bob Murphy. Pellicle, Perfect Bahram, Rippey, Jobar, Dark Jungle. Alworth, With Pleasure, Marine Victory, Wee Admiral and Kendor. The huge throng, jamming every inch of the picturesque downs from stretch turn to clubhouse bend and giving the infield its usual sardine can effect, went right along with the "bigness" of this 72nd running of the historic run by tossing a new world record $1,202, 474 into the mutuals on the Derby alone, much more than the old high of 8805,082 chalked up in the Santa Anita Handicap last winter. The field of 17, too, was the largest in nine years to go to the post to the strains of "My Old Kentucky Home" - largest since War Admiral whipped 19 others in 1937. Spy Song, who was the hope of l.droit automobile body builder Charlie Fisher, took off in front as the out-sized field broke from the gate. And he was wining just as far as he could go, which was a mile, as i-d been expected. That's where he had to make his stop for gas. But he lasted to take the $10.000 secon plce bankroll by a bare head. Tlat was his marin over the Delaware dandy, Hampden, from the Foxcatcher Farm of William DuPont, who took the $5,000 third money.

The Wildcats took the lead in the Morning's best-ball doubles, 5 to 4, and continued stepping on the Wol- verines as Manuel de la Torre and Bob Abrams, the number one and two men, trounced Dave Barclay and Pete Elliott by decisive scores of 3-0 and 2% to 1/2, respectively. Ramsey Wins But it was the bottom section of the team that told the story. Bill Ramsey, playing in the number three spot, finished with a nifty 35 for a total of 77 to defeat Chuck Lindgren, 2-1. Bill Courtright battled his oppon- ent, Dick Stiverson, every inch of the way. The two stood all even at the end of the first nine, but Courtright made it one up on the fifteenth hole and hung on to that margin to win the match 21/2 to 12. Schalon Takes Krapfel Starting of well with a 38 on the first nine, Ed Schalon came through with a 2-1 victory over Northwes- tern's Dick Krapfel. Though Roger Kessler turned in an 85 for the sec- ond highest total for the Wolverines, he played well enough to overwhelm Jim Stotter by a 3-0 count and there- by give Michigan the winning margin. Ramsey's 77 was the lowest score of the afternoon for the Wolverines and duplicated the mark turned in by Northwestern's ace, de la Torre. SUMMARIES Singles: Manuel de la Torre (N) def.

Netters Downed By Illinois, 6-3, On I-M Courts Wellington, McCluskey Win for Wolverines By DEE GERMAIN An overpowering Illini tennis squad' swept away Michigan 6-3, yesterday in a match forced indoors by rainy weather and gave the Wolverines their first Conference set-back of the current season. Michigan's only victories came from the thiiM, and fifth singles and the second doubles positions. Fred Wellington, playing number three, remains the only Wolverine undefeated as he took Jim Gates, 6-4, 6-3, by his steady, smart net play. Dean McCluskey's consistent chop shots proved too much for Fred Steers, his Illini opponent in a two set match 6-2, 6-3. So far this season McClusky has only been defeated once out of his five appearances. Mikulich's brilliant service re- turn and overhead combined with the same steady net play that won Wellington the singles match gave Michigan its third and final point in the second doubles. Jack Hersh, playing in the top spot, fell before Roger Downs, 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, in the longest single match of the afternoon. Downs, who in 1943 won the Big Ten singles champion- ship, depended upon his accurate shots and excellent court strategy. On Thursday, the netmen meet Western Michigan in another non- conference tilt, and will take on Chi- cago Saturday. Both these are home matches. The results: Singles: Roger Downs (I) Def. Jack Hersh, 4-6, 6-4, 6-4. Benny Migdow (I) Def. Bill Miku- lich, 8-6, 10-8. Fred Welligton (M) Def. Jim Gates, 6-4, 6-3. Ray Von Spreckelson (I) Def.

The time was 4:28.7. Singing Bill Bangert captured the shot put with a fine heave of 51 ft. 64 in., but fouled on every attempt to hurl the discus.

Earlier in the afternoon Short copped his specialty with a 49.8 per- formance in the quarter. Bill Haidler of Michigan grabbed the second spot behind him, with Ed Crook of Purdue third.
