With the score even at three singles and one doubles match apiece, the final outcome rested upon the results of the match in which the Wolverines' Paul Schoenlaub and Dean McClusky faced Art Leighton and Bob Stowe of Kalamazoo. The Hornets took the first set, 6-3, and were winning the second by two games when the Maize and Blue duo pulled up to them. Despite a steady rain, the netters continued to play outside, with the lead changing hands continuously. Finally, Leight- on and Stowe gained enough points to take the second set, 8-6, giving Kalamazoo the decisive match. Because of Fred Wellington's in- jury, Coach Leroy Weir shifted his usual doubles combinations, teaming Bill Mikulich with Jack Hlersh in the Tennis Su u1ilIiicsie' i Singles: Eric Pratt (K) def.

They came through for Michigan by toppling Eric Pratt andI John Thompson, 6-1, 6-2. Captain Dave Post paired with Jim Evans in the number two doubles in his second appearance of the season, but these two were beaten by the prowess of Nick Beresky and Don Staake, 6-3, 8-6. Chalking up three points for the Maize and Blue were singles' men Mikulich, Evans and Harold Cook. Mikulich went to match point five times before winning from Beresky in three tough sets, 6-2, 4-6, 6-3. Seeded fifth, Evans also had to go three sets before downing the Kala- mazoo coach's son, Bob Stowe, 7-5, 3-6, 6-2. Facing 35-year old Homer Shoop. who plays in a very unortho- dox style, Hal Cook defeated his op- ponent with ease, 6-2, 6-1, in the number six singles. One of the leading netmen of the midwest is Eric Pratt, who trounced top-seeded Jack Hersh in two ident- ical sets, 6-2, 6-2. Playing with a tap- ed ankle, Wellington lost, 6-1, 6-2, to the Kalamazoo number three singles player, Art Leighton. Dean McClusky dropped the other singles match to John Thompson, 7-5, 6-4. Wolve 311Ce (;oli, S I Squad's CoW ii Cliaiwes (;ood With an away tilt against the Uni- versity of Detroit the lone match re- maining to. be played before the all- important Conference tournament at Minneapolis May 31 and June 1, Michigan's golf team showed in its two decisive triumphs over Purdue and Ohio State, last Saturday and Monday, that it has a fine chance to regain the Big Ten golf title which it lost to the Buckeyes last season, after holding it for thre straight years. Out of twenty-one rounds played last week-end by the top six men who will probably make the trip to the ,omparatively easier Minnesota course, all but two were in the 70's. Against the Boilermakers Dave Bar- clay carded 75-74; Pete Elliott, 77-, 75; Ed Schalon, 74-79; Rog Kessler, 77-77; Bill Ramsey, 81-78; and Bill Courtright, 79. Playing in much bet- ter weather Monday, but handicapped nevertheless by faster greens, Kes- A1er lead the field with 75-75; Bar- clay shot 77-75; Ramsey had two 78's; Elliott a 71-81; Courtright, 75; and Schalon 74. If Schalon's and Courtright's single hounds were counted in place of El- liott's scores, Monday's low total for four 36-hole cards would hit 602, >ix strokes below Satuday's best and one under the mark that won the title for Ohio last year. ~ XaagSaXon], Motlisoll May Take the Mound, Show AgaiXst Champs After playing host to baseball's aristocracy, the World Champion De- troit Tigers, Michigan will get back into its owvn social strata today, when the Wolverines meet Ypsilanti Nor- mal in a game that will get underwayI 3:30 p.m. at Ferry Field. The game today will mark tie ihird meeting of the season between Michi-I gan and Ypsilanti. The first two, pre- season exhibition contests, went to the Wolverines, but in the second game it took a ninth inning rally to' upset the Hurons, 4-3. Savage May Start Coach Ray Fisher has Indic atedz that he will use one of his pitchers who has not seen much action this season, probably Dick Savage, BobI Saxon, or Pat Morrison. In conmmenting on last Monday's Tiger g ime. Fisher said that he was very pleased with the defensive show- ing of his team, but that they should have hit better. Said Fisher. "They hit against the Tigers just the way they did against Minnesota. They should (d0 better from now on." ig i Leagues Too Good Most of the record crowd of nearly 7,000 fans that witnessed the Tigers, came away convinced that a hustling college club .just didn't have enough to stop a majior league team, not even a bored major league team. Except for the big sixth inning, the Tigers never seemed to forget that they were enjoying a day off from the rigors of a long baseball cam- paign. In the sixth, the champions woke up long enzugh to punch across six runs. Three Double Plays Aside from Jack Weisenberger's triple in the first inning, which scored Don Robinson with Michigan's only run, Wolverine fans had only defensive maneuvers to cheer about. Chief among these werethree double plays, including the most ludicrous play of the season. With one out and runners on first and third, Ted Gray hit a grounder to Bliss Bowman. Bowman threw tot the plate and Jimmy Bloodworth wast trapped between third and home. He was tagged in the run down. Then ac quick throw to Dom Tomasi caught Bob Swift off second base. Tomasi1 and Swift then staged a foot race to third base with Tomasi winning,i tagging the Tiger catcher to completet the double play. Eat Less, Giv I/hauYon S(ve{ f ,,_ a ' ;; '!, -, aLS 4 1 \ " i 4mauiq gnew transpertutien When Ohio State's track team in- vades Ferry Field Saturday for a dual meet with the Wolverine thinclads, the thoughts of many old-timers will return to that history-making af- ternoon exactly 11 years ago, when Jesse Owens became a cinder im- mortal. On May 25, 1935 Ohio State's sprint star put on a one-man show that the 10,000 spectators at the Conference meet that year will never forget. In the preliminary heats on the first day of competition, Owen's qualified in four events, the low and 220-yard dashes, the 220 low hurdles and took only one leap to qualify in the broad j ump. Sets Three Records The following day the 21-year ol:1 sophomore made track history. Fa- vored by perfect weather conditions, Owens set three new world's records and tied another as he personally accounted for 20 of the Buckeye's 431> points, which gave Ohio State (M) ,6-1, (K) THE MOTOR second place honors to michian in the Big Ten track met. Although he was never pressed in any of the four events, Owens tied the world's record of 9.4 in the 100- yard dash and lowered the mark for the 220 by three-tenths of a second, coverin the furlong in 20.3. The Ohio State star rounded out his brilliant perf ormance by scooting over the 220-yard low hurdles in 22.6, which bettered the former standard by .4 of a second, and added 6 1, 8 in. to the broad jump rcor with a leap of 26 ft.
