THURSDAY, MAY 13, 1948 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE . . ................. JUST KIBITZING By DICK KRAUS TODAY, KIDDIES, let us take up the report, not Kinsey's, but Cris- ler's annual financial statement. The gist of the statement is "We need help from somewhere if we are to build," and even if we are making money now, there are cer- tain trends which are causing the Athletic Administration serious concern. The report cites that operating costs have soared about 33 per cent. It goes on to say that we won't make as much next year since we have one less football game while costs will continue to rise. Aside from the implication that the rising cost spiral is going to continue indefinitely, there is nothing too controversial in that section of the report. But it goes on to worry about "the spector of a few bad seasons, with the reduced receipts. .. and the finan- cial outlook for the future is anything but encouraging." With the prospects for the next year's football team as rosy as they are now, the last statement is a little incongruous. THE NEXT STATEMENT is not. "It is difficult to see how the sut' plus that can be anticipated in future years can meet these in- creasing costs and at the same time finance the necessary plant ex- pansion." And the entire Administration policy should be based on that realization from now on. There is one irrefutable fact. 1. We can't build on our own earnings and we can build only if we get financial aid from somewhere else. The only logical course is to divorce the building program from the regular Athletic Administrative program. That done, the football earnings plus $129,039.31 allocated to the Athletic Admin- istration out -of tuitions (an item listed in the statement of re- ceipts, but not nimntioned in the body of the report) would be more than enough to take care of the entire year's disbursements, this year it was $204,870.37 more. With, that much of an excess some of the charges to students could and should be eliminated or substantially reduced. Golfers Win, MSC Checks Nine Major League Standings I I * *. * Berke Paces Wet Linksters Against Titans By DICK HURST While Jove Pluvius supplied the liquid, Michigan's golfers did the liquidating yesterday as they swamped Detroit 24-3 on the soggy University Course. Ken Berke led the Wolverine amphibs to their seventh straight win against a pair of losses by touring the water coaked layout in 76 strokes. His fine round brought him three points in individual play and with Tom Messinger adding an 84 the duo's combined effort was good enough to whitewash the Ti- tans in best ball 3-0. Breciks Go to Spartan~s As Wolverines Lose, 7-3 6._________________________ ______ AMERICAN LEAGUE NATIONAL LEAGUE Captain Ed Schalon and Cutler teamed up in the foursome to inundate Titans Iceberg and John Povlitz Bill first Roy 9-0. Because of the annual I-M Golf Tournament, the Univer- sity Course will be closed to students and the general pub- lic until 4 p.m. Saturday af- ternoon. AFTER ADMITTING that building is impossible on our income, the tennis fees can be completely eliminated. Students contributed a net profit of more than $14,000 on the golf course last year. Towel and locker fees in the I-M and Waterman gyms brought in another eight thousand and again that is too much. Those profits ae at the expense of the student body. And the student body is not financially able to finance a building pro- gram. The counter proposal to the plea for outside assistance is a thinly veiled threat to charge students for Michigan gootball games. It might be in the report to dramatize the need for aid from the Re- gents. If it is being seriously considered, the Student body should begin an organized resistance right now. If we are going to be expected to pay for football, to supply the athletes and the money, then the hell with it. The University might as well call the team, "The Michigan Football Club," and stop pre- tending that it represents the whole campus. Or just drop the whole thing. Chicago gets along. Schalon took .78 strokes in earn- ing his trio of individuals points while a fifteen foot putt for a birdie on the 18th gave Cutler an even 80 plus three points for his efforts. Chuck MacCallum and Mort Cohn posted an 83 and 79 respect- ively to rack up Michigan's last 81/2 points. Detroit's Dave Turner shooting an 86 squeezed out % a point from MacCallum to save the Titan pair from a shut-out. The win sends the Wolverines off on the right foot as they take to the road for matches with Illi- nois and Notre Dame. By L. E. NELSON Michigan State's baseball team pushed across four runs in the second inning to defeat Michigan 7-3 in an abbreviated seven inning game played at Ferry Field yes- terday. State pounded three Wolverine hurlers for ten hits but won the games when Howie Wikel, Mich- igan shortstop, found the sloppy playing conditions too much to cope with in the fateful second frame. Morrison Out A walk and two doubles had scored two runs when Wikel made a fine stop back of second on Pavlick's sharp smash, but his throw to first was late. Spartan pitcher Dieters then walked to fill the bases and send Pat Morrison, Coach Fisher's starter and losing pitcher, to the showers. Bud Rankin here re- placed him on the mound. Peppler, State outfielder, then popped into short left field. It would have been an easy catch for Morrison, coming in, but Wi- kel attempted the catch going away from the diamond, dropped it and the deciding run scored for Kobs' nine. Another run scored on Urbanik's fly to Elliott a moment later. Block Effective The clutch pitching of Lou Block, Spartan reliefer, turned back the Wolverines on three oc- casions. Twice double plays broke up rallies and the game ended in the seventh when Dom Tomasi popped with the bases packed and rain pouring down. Wikel led Michigan hitting with three singles and a walk. The be'- spectacled shortstop singled to right in the opening frame to give the Wolverines a short lived lead. Kobrin scored on the hit but Weisenburger was thrown out at the plate when he tried to take advantage of Bechard's bobble in right field. Double lays Hurt Michigan State's Block, winning pitcher, put the skids on Michigan at the most opportune times. With the bases loaded in the sec- ond Elliott hit into a double play. Two runners were left stranded again in the fourth when Hal Raymond hit into a twin killing. Michigan scored twice in the fifth when Elliott's triple to left center followed by two walks load- ed the bases for Wikel. Howie singled to left to score Elliott and Morrison. State tallied twice in their fifth on three infield hits, a walk and error. One of the hits resulted when Wikel fell on his face after fielding a ground ball back of second. Wikel slipped in the mud I-M News It is interesting to note that the four houses leading the Residence Hall sports competition also lead in the number of men participat- ing in intramural sports. Lloyd House is on top with 156 men out. Greene House follows with 108, then Michigan House with 96, and Winchell with 95. Thirty-one men are entered in the All-Campus outdoor tennis tournament. Matches, which began yester- day, are to be played every Wed- nesday and Saturday. before he could get the throw away. Dom Tomasi came up with the two outstanding fielding plays of the day while Bud Rankin was the best of Michigan's three moundsmen.

MINNEAPOLIS, May 12---') --The Times said today it had learned that Ozzie Cowles had been appointed University of Minnesota basketball coach and that Cowles had accepted. University officials had no comr-ent. The Times said Cowles, now basketball coach at Michigan, had informed Frank McCor- mick, Minnesota Athletic Di- rector, that he would be will- ing to leave Michigan. As The Daily went to press tonight, Coach Cowles could not be reached for comment. Boston 5, Chicago 4 Washington 9, Detroit 14 Philadelphia 8, St. Louis 4 Cleveland at New York, (incom.)

SPORT JACKETS . .. .. .,. ... $15 and up MEN'S SLACKS .....I.....$11.50 and up )D JACKET id SLACKS Ohio State's amazing track team, fresh from an overwhelming victory . over Michigan State's powerful Spartans, will invade Ferry Field Saturday to tangle with the Michigan thinclads in what promises to be a preview of the Western Conference title chase to be held at Madison, Wis- consin later this month. Great Team Although the Wolverines are re- garded as the chief contender to Buckeye supremacy on the confer- ence cinder paths, Ken Doherty's squad faces an almost hopeless task in trying to overcome the boys from Columbus in the dual meet. Bolstered by six former Big Nine title holders, and two former national champions, the Bucks will present what Coach Doherty calls, "the greatest track team ever assembled in the Western Conference," and while. the Wol- verines will capture their share of individual blue-ribbons, the over- all team balance'of the Ohio squad should allow them to take the meet by a comfortable margin. Leading the Buckeye parade will be the incomparable Lloyd Duff, holder of three Conference in- door crowns. Duff, who gets bet- ter with age, is a cinch to capture the broad-jump which he won at East Lansing last week with a 24 Back again!

He is also a good bet to take the pole vault with a leap of some- where in the neighborhood of 13 feet 10 inches, and then he may make it a grand slam in the low hurdles if he can outfoot team- mate Lloyd Maxwell. Maxwell turned in a :23.4 effort last week to nip Duff by a mere tenth of a second-while Duff's :23.5 waas good enough to tie Michigan's var- sity record. Strong in Quarter In the 440, the Buckeyes will throw a three man field of Harry Cogswell (indoor title-holder), Ed Porter, and Russ Owens at the Wolverines, and Val Johnson will have to tour the course in some- thing under 49 seconds to stay up with the Red and Gray trio. In the track events, the Ohio State crew will face its stiffest competition in the middle dis- tances. Herb Barten, Big Nine mile and half-mile champion will car- ry the load for Michigan, but even he will have to go all out to top the Buck's two former national 880 kings, Mal Whitfield and Bill Clifford. Whitfield is capable of a 1:50.9 half, and Clifford who may start only in the mile can cruise the distance in something under 4:20. Fred Johnson will pace the State dashmen. With a :09.9 100 and a :22 flat 220 to his credit in last week's meet, he looks like a shoo-in in the century and once again Val Johnson will have to press all the way to keep up with him in the longer sprint. Don Washington and Ed Mead- ows will handle the two mile chore for Ohio State and probably will run one-two. Bright spot for the Wolverines, along with Barten's middle dis- tance monopoly, is the shot-put with Fonville and Dendrinas. All in all, it looks like a dreary time for the Wolverines, who will probably spend the day trying to keep the Buckeyes within shout- ing distance. Inter-Guild Softball Only one contest was played in the Inter-Guild softball league this week. The Presbyterian Guild tasted their first defeat by bowing 10-9 to the Lutheran Student Association. All Guild teams have now been beaten at least once. Saturday's schedule pits the Congregationalists against the Lutheran Student Association and the Presbyterians against the Lu- theran Chapel.
