BRAIN AND BRAWN: Raymond Named Head Grid Mentor at IU' High_ Seek First Baseball Win from Indiana It was announced yesterday that Hal "Tubby" Raymond would take over the football coaching duties at University High School next fall. Although known" in Michigan athletic circles for his prowess on the diamond, Tubby has been ac- quainted with Wolverine football tactics for three years. * * * HAL HAD BEEN showing great improvement in the 1945 and '46 seasons and was expected to figure prominently in the 1947 team. A broken leg he received while play- ing in a summer baseball league prevented him from seeing action. Raymond received high re- commendations for the post by both line coach Jack Blott and his former coach, Fritz Crisler, based upon his earnestness and application while working under their tutelage. Blott had great praise for the five-foot-eight, 170-pounder, who kept working against the rugged Big Nine competition despite his small stature. The Michigan line coach said, "he is one of the best guards for his size Michigan ever had." * * * RAYMOND got plenty of exper- ience in his prep career .at Flint Northern High School. He is re- garded as one of the finest guards Love of Game Garners Fame ATHENS, Ga. - (A) - Athens High School's baseball team scored 67 runs in a seven-inning game last season. It jumped into the news with another unusual feat yesterday. A schedule mixup found the Athens Trojans with two games on their hands the same afternoon. Having only 17 players, Athens sent nine men into one game and the remaining 'eight and the manager into the other. Both teams won. In addition, in- fielder Don Seagraves made an unassisted triple play. DO YOU KNOW ... Dick Wakefield batted in more runs than any other Big Nine base- ball player in one season-25. I7 ever to play in the Saginaw Valley Conference, which is proven by the fact that he was named to the All-Conference team two years in succession. Hal follows in the footsteps of another Michigan gridder, Hank Fonde. Fonde, who guid- ed the "U" High eleven to six wins and two losses last season, resign the Cub position several months ago in favor of a simi- lar job at the rival city school, Ann Arbor High. Raymond won't officially as- sume his duties until June, so thatr he will be able to save his eligi- bility for the remainder of the Wolverine baseball season. * * * ALONG WITH his grid duties Tubby will assist in the coaching of "U" High's basketball squad and also help in administering some of the spring sports programs. As far as classroom work is con- cerned he will teach in the school's physical education department. INTRAMURAL BRIEFS: By SY SONKIN Michigan will once more try to open its home baseball season when the Wolverines take on In- diana at 3:30 this afternoon on the Ferry Field diamond. Today's contest marks the first Conference game on the Hoosier schedule, while the defending champion Maize and Blue outfit has played and lost two Big Nine contests to a strong Purdue nine. INDIANA BRINGS a soph- studded line-up which has come through in excellent fashion in pre-Conference play, having won six times in as many starts. Three second-year men have crashed the starting line-up, while another pair, Bill Tosheff and Don Colnitis, are the rank- ing hurlers. Graduation last year riddled Hoosier Coach Ernie Andres' in- field and pitching staff, leaving only. second - baseman. Willard "Woody" Litz, reserve infielder Howard Buickel and pitcher Joe Lawecki as letter winners from .last year's infield and mound staff. BUICKEL and Lawecki were used very sparingly during the campaign. But the sophs came through, and Andres has built up a, strong contender for the Big Nine title. The leading Hoosier hurler in Conference play' was Don Ritter with three wins against one loss, but he preferred to play the out- field and his two home runs and pair of doubles made Andres' de- sire on this subject similar to that of Ritter. WHEN TOSHEFF and Colnitis came through, the wish to keep Ritter in the game regularly was granted, but first base was still very weak. Then another sophomore, Harry Moore, attracted atten- tion in the outfield, and An- dres decided to let him team with Bob Moore and Bill Stear- man, two regular outfielders last season. Then the Indiana coach shifted Ritter to first base, where he's been playing good ball since the move. WITH THE RIGHT side of the infield secure, Andres picked two sophomores to cover the left side. Gene Ring was put in at short and John Kyle, originally second-sacker, was sent in to take care of third, because it was apparent that it would be hard to get rid of Litz, who led the Hoosier batters last year with a .362 mark. Starting receiver will be John Gorkis, who last year showed plenty of power in rapping out three homers, a triple and a double in addition to driving 13 mates acrcss the plate to lead his team in that all-important phase. * * * WOLVERINE coach Ray Fisher is starting Ralph Morrison in centerfield. the only change from the line-up that opened against Purdue. Third-sacker Ted Kobrin and second-baseman Bob Bucholz are stillbslightly injured, but are expected to start for the Maize and Blue. The rest of the line-up includes Jack McDonald at first and Bob Wolff at short, and Hal Morrill and Leo Koceski in the outfield, and Captain Hal Raymond behind the plate, while Fisher indicated that Bill Taft would pitch. -Daily-Bill Ohlinger BAFFLING BACKHAND-War- ren Weltman of Sigma Nu fra- ternity, shown above returning a difficult placement, is one of the intra-mural tennis players competing in the first-round play-offs begun this week. 1l AUTO RACES "Hot Rods" and earn Weightlifters Here Saturday; Lloyd Increases Dorm Lead 2'% 7 Big 100 Laps 20 Lap Events of Racing Feature Hot Rods Red Hot for Opener; Season Begins Sunday at Ypsi current rate on insured savings Michigan's hot-rod auto racing eason opens Sunday featuring cars representing every make on he market, but souped-up to de- liver power that makes even the anufacturer sit up and take no- tice.
