..THURSDAY,.JAAY 6,1941 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Wolverines Run Wild Over U ofD Linksmen, 35-1 20 Frats Seek Track Crown Ten Events Highlight Annual Outdoor Meet Thinclads from twenty fratern- ities will spike the Ferry Field cinlders today in the traditional outdoor fraternity track and field meet, slated to begin at 5 p.m. if the weather permits. Opening up the ten-event pro- gram will be the preliminaries in the high hurdles. The six best times will qualify for the final heat, which will be run off as the third event following the mil;' grind. Next on the agenda will be the low hurdlers' preliminary round with the quickie 100-yard dash sandwiched in between the quali- fying and final race. The meet will close after the speedsters are put through the 440 and 880yard paces. Although the outdoor track title has not been claimed by any fra- ternity since the war program was installed, some indication of fra- ternity strength was given in the indoor mile relay runs last win- ter. The Beta Theta Pil quartet whipped away with that crown, followed by Sigma Chi, Chi Phi, and Phi Gamma Delta. If the weather remains cold, the meet will be postponed until next Tuesday. Michigan'Turnson Heat' To Swamp Titan Golfers Barclay, Schalon Battle Weather To Pace Mnaize and Blue to Fifth Straight Triumph By MURRAY GRANT With the weather so frigid that the golfers could hardly grasp their clubs, the Michigan golf team slaughtered a poor Univer- sity of Detroit golf squad by a 35-1 count yesterday on a snow swept University Course. Using eight men teamed in four foursomes, Coach Bert Katzen- meyer's crew battled the unsea- sonable weather to easily notch their fifth consecutive win and their ninth victory against three losses for the season. Barclay, Schalon Win Captain Dave Barclay and big Ed Schalon teamed up in the number one twosome and turned in the best golf of the afternoon as they defeated the Titans top linksters, John Povlitz and Al Kie- fer. Barclay lost 12 of the point the Wolverines managed to give up when he halfed the back nine with Povlitz. Detroit took the other '/2 point in the number two match when Paul O'Hara and Don Paget matched identical strokes on the front nine to half their match at that point. O Hara, however, went on to take the lead on the back nine and narrowly squeaked by with a 1 up triumph for 2 /2 points. O'Hara teamed with Bill Court- right in the number two slot to dispose of Paget and Dick Buech- ler and add 81/2 more markers to the growing Wolverine total. Jenswold, DeVries Triumph Johnny Jenswold and Garry De- A Vries, playing in the third four- some, ended their match on the 13th hole as they slaughtered their Titan foes. Jenswold took Paul Oleson 7 and 5 while De- Vries made hash of Don Visscher to the tune of an 8 and 7 shellack- ing. In the final foursome Rog Kess- ler and Jack Vezina added 9 more points to bring the total to 35 as they trounced Pete Allen and Bob DeVine, 5 and 3 and 6 arid 5, re- spectively. Vezina narrowly miss- ed sharing medalist honors with Schalon when he chippedebeauti- fully onto the 18th green and then rimmed the cup with his putt to give him a card of one more than Schalon. Varsity-Jayvee Match Tomorrow ten varsity men will match strokes with a jayvee team in a 18 hole match. Leading the field will be Barclay who is paired against Kenny Berke. Berke in qualifying for the jayvee squad turned in two sizzling rounds of 71, which are the best scores card- ed this season. Vezina is the only other members of the team to have cracked par thus far as he turned in a 71 on a practice round Tuesday. On Saturday the Wolverines play host to a mediocre Illinois team that has had a dismal sea- son. Then the team goes on a three match jaunt, meeting Mich- igan State, Purdue and Detroit in away matches next week. Major Lea gue Standings NATIONAL LEAGUE S POt SCRnAPiooK By JACK MARTIN, Daily Sports Editor THE HERALDED post-war boom in sports has been in progress for over a year now, and the Midwest has been the scene of some of its greatest surgings. The customer competition for seats at all man- ner of athletic frays from football to fencing has been almost as ter- rific as the players' battles for berths on the squads themselves. The boom isn't restricted to the old line favorites, however. New sports are moving into the picture, and right here in our own backyard a sport has been gaining in collegiate popularity for the past few years by leaps and bounds. It's an importation from the East-sailing. Michigan has been the leader in the move to make sailing a recognized college sport throughout the Midwest. The U of M Sailing Club was originated in 1938 by a small group of sailing addicts, and has been in continuous operation ever since. In addition to organizing itself, the Club here has actively beat the drums for the sport in other schools in the area. The great strides made in this direction were shown last weekend when the First Annual U of M Regatta was held on Whitmore Lake. THIS impetus is being provided, it must be stressed, not by the Uni- versity, but by the individual efforts of students. The Club now numbers around 55, according to its Commodore, Bob Schroder. This figure could easily be five times as great-over 200 applications have been turned down in the past year. This is not an evidence of snobbishness. The Club faces ter- rific problems. In the first place, the membership must of neces- sity be proportioned to the number of boats, and the number of boats proportioned to the amount of cash on hand. Although they represent the University in regattas throughout the East, they have never received any aid in any form from the school. The entire cost of road trips is paid by individual members of the Club. The other great problem is that of facilities. At present the Club operates from makeshift quarters in the basement of a roller rink out at Whitmore. As its publicity director,' Ted Souris, says, "The U of M Club is the center of the Intercollegiate Yacht Racing Association's midwestern activities, but unless the club's facilities are improved it will not be able to assume such leadership." T HE CLUB is at present under the Office of Student Affairs but the officers have talked to Assistant Athletic Director Ernie McCoy about the possibilities of placing the sport under the University. It is practically impossible to make it a varsity activity because it would entail the restriction of membership to those making the team, which is against all the desires of the group. The best suggestion, which the Club is now working on, is to place the sport within the Intramural set-up. This would provide# the group with University financial support. However the question of sponsoring inter-collegiate meets is a different matter. Conceivably, some such system as this could be worked out in the future: after the sport has become assimilated and given a sound basis in the Intramural program, the top performers (probably those making trips on their own in the meantime) could be formed into ,a varsity squad and a regular intercollegiate schedule inaugurated.

THE DASCOLA BARBERS Liberty off State By GLORIA VREELAND George Sisler, baseball's Hall of Fame first baseman, who is con- sidered by many the greatest ball player of all time,began his swift ascent to Major League acclaim by striking out twenty batters in an intramural contest played in Ann Arbor, May 1, 1911. Stars as Freshman He was just a freshman engi- neer at the time, hurling against a team of lawyers. But that game gives him the distinction of being the only Hall-of-Famer ever te strike out that many batters in one game. Branch Rickey, then eoci ing the Wolverines, was rushed to the scene of action to view the end of this strike-out spree. Sisler, needless to say, became a varsity regular the following year. Goes to St. Louis Four years later the boy from Manchiester, Ohio donned a St. Louis Brown uniform to play once again under the baseball Mahat- ma's leadership. He made his first appearance as a relief hurler a- gainst the White Sox, but the following day Rickey had him guarding first base where he be- came a fixture except when he took his turn on the mound, Perhaps Sisler's greatest feat as a pitcher against American League competition was a 1-0 duel he captured on September 17, 1916 from the king of the fast ball, Walter Johnson. As a batting expert, the one- ' <'" ' ; - , .

His life-time batting average is a cool .340. Beats Out Cobb Sisler's number one accomplish- ment occurred in 1922 when he collected just the necessary num ber of hits to squeeze by the in i g h t y Ty Cobb's American League record for the season's batting average. The then Brown- ie boasts a mark of .41980 com- pared to Cobb's nevertheless re- spectable .41963. The present 3.iuber of (t' Dodgers' "Brain Trust" estab- lished many impressive marks, in- cluding 257 safe knocks in 1920, 10 hits in a row in 1921, and a 41-game hitting streak in 1922. But eye trouble halted his career the following season and his rec- ord after that was never as out- standing. What Sisler's record might have been if unchecked by faulty vision is a matter worthy of conjecture.
