Varsity Meets U-I)
By IRWIN ZUCKER
The type of golf action Coach
Bert Katzenmeyer would like to
see in future collegiate competi-
tion was unfolded yesterday when
12 linksmen from Michigan's jun-
ior varsity squad collided with a
similar number from Ypsi Normal
at the Washtenaw Country Club.
It was one of the largest line-
ups presented by any two squads
In collegiate history --and this
fact pleased the Wolverine men-
tor greatly in addition to seeing
his jayvees go on to cop a de-
cisive 43-11 match.
"Ypsi's coach, Dr. Lloyd Olds,
also believes in big competition
with as many boys playing as pos-
sible," declared Katzenmeyer.
"Normally only six to eight men
see action in a college match.
There are a lot of good boys an-
xious - and well-qualified - to
compete on college links today.
Why let talent go to waste?"
One of the less fortunate golf
squads in this area - the Uni-
versity of Detroit-brings a weak
varsity crew into town today to
battle Michigan at the Univer-
sity golf course.
Detroit has yet to taste victory
in six outings this spring. Thus
the Wolverine linksmen will rule
heavy favorites today before test-
ing Illinois in an important Big
Nine match here Saturday.
Michigan's jayvee, recording
their second success of the sea-
son over the Ypsi linksters'
stroked masterfully yesterday
over the long and soggy course.
Six of the Wolverines posted fin -
al scores in the 70's, topped by
Wes Carlson's sizzling 75.

' hM' Squad Playing at Ypsi Normal Today
By CHUCK LEWIS
Michigan State put together
four hits for two runs in their
first inning, which was enough to
defeat the Wolverine nine, 2-1, be-
hind the eight-hit pitching of
Robin Roberts before a small,
chilled crowd yesterday afternoon
at Ferry Field.
Roberts was in complete con-
trol all the way after he got by
the initial frame when Michigan
pushed across its lone tally. He
was usually in front of most of
the Wolverine batters as he struck,
out six and walked one.
Spartans Start Early
Captain Cliff Wise started for
the Maize and Blue and pitched
the first four innings. After be-
ing hit hard in the opening stan-
za, the Spartans only touched hims
for a lone single in the second.
Pat Peppler, Spartan center
fielder, opened the contest with a
long triple along the left field line.
Wise then settled down and struck
out Frank Bagdon and caused
Marty Hansen, State shortstop
and captain, to pop a foul to How-
ie Wikel at first.
Massuch Does Damage
But Dick Massuch promptly
lined a single to center, scoring
Peppler for the first run of the
game.1Massuch went to second on
a wild pitch and scored the win-
ning run a moment later when
Ed Barbarito singled to left. Steve
Sieradzki then doubled, but Harry
Hughes stopped the rally by foul-
ing to Hal Raymond.
Roberts was also well hit in
the Wolverine half of the inning.'
Paul White singled sharply to left.
Bump Elliott lined to first, but
Wikel singled over second, send-
ing White to third where he scored
on Bob Wiese's single to deep short-
with the infield pulled in. Jack
Weisenburger then ended the in-
ning grounding into a double play.
The Spartans again threatened
in the eighth with Bud Rankin
hurling for Michigan. Two singles
and a balk put the Staters on
second and third with none out.
Rankin pitched beautifully in the
clutch and retired the side on a
ground ball, a pop foul, and a
strike to keep State from scoring
and left the game amid a great
ovation from the crowd.
Rally Fails
White tripled with one down in
the Wolverine eighth, but Roberts
bore down and struck out Elliott
and Wikel. Two Michigan men
reached base in the ninth, and
again Roberts pulled himself out
by striking out Raymond to end
the game.
The Wolverines will journey to
Ypsilanti to face Michigan State
Normal today. Coach Ray Fisher
plans to start Art Dole on the
mound against the Hurons. In
their last meeting here, Michigan
routed the Ypsi nine, 14-7.

An all-out offensive on the dou-I
bles front broke a 3-3 deadlock to
enable Michigan's tennis team to
squeeze by Wayne yesterday onf
the Varsity courts in a match'
Wmechell Eyes
I-M Playoffs
Heading down the final stretch
of the I-M residence halls soft-
ball campaign, Greene and Lloyd
House remained in the lead of
their leagues, while Winchell
House edged into first in the third
circuit by defeating Michigan, 7-3,
last Monday.
Winchell House pushed across
six runs in their half of the fifth
inning to pull the game out of the
fire.
A double by Dick Mikulbach
and two errors filled the bases,
and Bob Kelly cleaned them with
a sharp double to center. Bill
MacAdams proved that pitchers
do hit by singling home two runs
in the last frame to win his own
ball game for Lloyd, 4-2, from
Williams.
Other results: Wenley 17-
Vaughn 2; Greene 11-Hinsdale 5;
Fletcher 20-Tyler 13; Allen-
Rumsey 4-Chicago 1.
which was almost too close for
comfort.
With first stringers Fred Zie-
mann and Bill Mikulich on the
sidelines in the singles, the sur-
prising Tartars captured the num-
ber two, four, and six matches.
After Andy Paton dumped Louis
Graves, 6-3, 6-2, to put Michigan
in the lead, Del Russell went
through Fred Otto in a pair of,
6-3 sets to even the count.
Hal Cook, moving up from
number six to number three, con-
tinued his winning ways as he
breezed through Gerry Gurman,
6-0, 6-4, to put the Wolverines
back in front. Then Wayne's Ben
Siegel solved the left handed style
of Dick Lincoln at number four to
win in straight sets, 6-2, 7-5, and
knot the count at 2-all.
Gordon Naugle came through
in the number five match, whip-
ping Quentin Vaughan in the fifth
consecutive straight setter, 6-4,
6-4. Mickey Dayton and Len Brose
broke the string in the number
six scramble, as they battled three
sets before Brose won out, 6-3,
5-7, 6-2.
With the count again tied up,
Coach Bob Dixon called up the
reinforcements, inserting regulars
Ziemann and Mikulich in the
number two doubles, and drop-
ping Cook and Naugle to their
accustomed number three.
It proved to be a wise move as
both pairs were forced to the ex-
tra set before winning their
matches; Ziemann and Mikulich
winning from Russell and Gur-
man, 6-3, 5-7, 6-4, and Cook and
Naugle defeating Brose and Al
Gross, 2-6, 6-4, 7-5.
Paton and Otto had less trouble
as they defeated Graves and
Vaughan, 6-2, 7-5.

Gold Trophy
A golf cup emblematic of the
1947 n a t i o n a l inter-collegiate
pocket billiards title was received
last week by University officials
and is now on display at the main
desk of the Michigan Union.
This trophy, presented by the
Billiards Association of America,
will be retained by the Union un-
til next year's competition.
This is the third time in 12
years that the Wolverine cuemen
have gained possession of the cup,
a record equalled only by the Uni-
versity of Florida.
The nation-wide competition
was interrupted during the war,
but was resumed this year with
Michigan's five-man billiards team
taking premier honors against a
field of 26 other colleges and uni-
versities.
The Wolverine cuemen, cap-
tained by Andy Sullivan, amassed
406 points for ten innings of play
in the straight pool finals, three
points ahead of the heavily-fa-
vored Minnesota Gophers.
'M' Club Meeting
There will be a very import-
ant meeting of the "M" Vlub
this evening at 7:30 p.m. in the
Union. Election of officers is
on the docket and all members
are urged to attend. .... ...

Even though it finished third in'
the final point totals, Michigan
State's crew walked off with the
ICYRA Mid-West Dinghy Trophy
given for the First Annual U. of
M. Sailing Regatta, held Saturday
and Sunday on the waters of
Whitmore Lake.
Michigan, finishing first was
not eligible because it was the
eligible because it was the spon-
soring school and Youngstown,
the second place school, was ruled
out because they had only brought
a three-man squad and as a result
had to borrow a crew member
from Michigan in order to fully
compete.I
MSC Goes To ICYRA
The final point totals show
Michigan with 541/2 as compared
with Youngstown's 46%. Michi-
gan State finished with 3614, while
Northwestern and Denison trailed
with 35 and 30 points respective-
ly.
As a result of winning the tro-
phy, Michigan State is invited to
the Inter-Collegiate Yacht Rac-
ing Association's Special Spring
Invitational Regatta which will be
held May 24-25 at Massachusetts
Institute of Technology.
Wolverines Go To Providence
Due to the large number of com-
peting schools, Michigan will not
be in the MIT meet, but will be
among those schools racing in the
Brown Invitational Regatta which
will also be held May 24-25, but
at Providence, R. I.
In Sunday's competition, Mich-
igan crews took one Class A race
and both Class B events. Youngs-
town took the other A division
race, with Michigan winding up
third in this event.
Michigan State will meet Michi-
gan's Sailing Club again when
they journey to Ann Arbor, May
18 to compete in a dual meet.
