A NUCLEUS of veterans and a trio of newcomers make up the Wolverine sextet. Captain Ed lchalon will tee off first for Mich- i1an. Playing his last year of golf for Michigan, Ed is the "Mr. Con- istent" of the team. Runner-up for individual Big Nine honors last year, Schalon has been play- ing fine golf all spring sticking in the lower part of the seventies. Behind Schalon are Rog Kess- ler and Pete Elliott, both start- ers on last year's team. Kessler has been hitting the ball well this spring, while Elliott is a "money" player from the word go. Chuck MacCallum boasts the most experience in the new part of the line-up. Chuck was a re- serve member of the varsity team last year facing Conference com- petition when more than six-men matches were played. With a year of seasoning under his belt, Chuck has shown a great deal of im- provement leading the Wolverines to victory against Detroit Wednes- day with a 75 despite an eight on one hole. Bob Olson and Leo Houser round out the Michigan team. Both shot fine golf on the south- ern tour and Katzenmeyer is counting on them to give Mich- igan the balance its needs for a championship team. * * * THE WOLvERINES went down to Columbus yesterday so that they could get in a practice round to acquaint them with the nooks and crannies of the OSU course. Ohio State will toss a green team at the Wolverines. Eligi- bility . and , graduation have cleaned the varsity slate of Alex Polli, Don Schock, and Pete Sohl. Despite the neophyte appear- ance of the Buckeye line-up, they walloped Michigan State College in their first tune-up of the sea- son. The match will be a thirty-six hole affair with best ball competi- tion in the morning and indivi- dual play in the afternoon. By HERB RUSKIN A masterful three hit pitching job by Indiana hurler Bill Tosheff dropped Michigan's baseball team further into the Western Confer- ence depths, as the Hoosiers took a 1-0 decision from the Wolver- ines, yesterday afternoon. The loss was the third for the Michigan nine in Big Nine play. * * * TOSHEFF allowed only two singles and a double to set the Wolverines down with apparent ease. He gave up only one walk and struck out two. Michigan couldn't get their eye on the ball and fell meekly before the big right hander. Tex Ritter, hard hitting first * * * , -ajor Lea He Roud-U 'JOL By The Associated Press WASHINGTON - Carl Scheib limited Washington to four hits last night as the Philadelphia Athletics injected two of their five hits into a two-run first inning to defeat the Senators, 2-0. BOSTON-The undefeated New York Yankees, with strange faces in many positions, won their . ieNgan. State's swimming team showed a healthy respect for Michigan natators as they named Wolverines to the No. 1 position in all but one event on their all-opponent team' chosen this week. Dick Weinberg, NCAA and Western Conference 50-yd. free style champion, topped the list of selections, heading the list In the 50 and 100-yd. free styles as well as on the 400-yd. relay. Miatt Mann III was picked in the 220 and 440-yd. free styles, Ralph Trimborn topped the high board divers and Bernie Kahn the backstrokers. In ad- dtilon the Wolverine medley and free style relays were hon- ored. Joe Verdeur and Keith Car- ter were the Spartans' choice for breaststroke, the only event not headed by Michigan. fourth consecutive game yester- day and at the same time spoiled Boston's American League home opener by whipping the Rd Sox, Tex Hughson made his first start of the season and didn't do too well. The tall righthander, who went to Texas to pitch in the hot sun last season after two arm operations, walked six Yankees and was rapped for five hits in six innings. * * * CLEVELAND - Mickey Vernon celebrated his 31st birthday yes- terday with a 10th inning single that gave the World Champion Cleveland Indians a 4 to 3 victory over the Detroit Tigers before a home opening day crowd of 63,- 725. The Tribe's new first baseman, obtained in a trade with Wash- lngton, lashed a single past third baseman George Kell that scored Larry Doby from second. Doby had reached first on an error by second baseman Neil Berry and advanced to second on a sacri- fice by Manager Lou Boudreau. Dizzy Trout, who relieved star- ter Freddie Hutchinson in the ninth, was on the mound when Vernon came through with his game-winning blow. * * * CHICAGO-The Chicago White Sox fashioned a four-run fourth inning, including Gus Zernial's homer, for a 5-2 home opener win over the St. Louis Browns to- day before 9,568 fans today. Although Marino Pieretti had to leave the game at the outset of the eighth inning, he was credited with the victory. * * * ST. LOUIS-A four-hit pitch- ing job by angular Al Brazle and long-distance hitting spree by his mates including Stan Musial's first home run of the year, gave the St. Louis Cardinals a 9-2 ver- dict over the Chicago Cubs yes- terday for their first victory of the season. PITTSBURGH - Ralph Kiner, with a grand-slam homer- and Clyde McCullough, with a run- scoring triple, enable the Pitts- burgh Pirates to come from be- hind yesterday and win their home opener from the Cincinnati Reds, 5-4. * * *:: : NEW YORK - The New Yor%. Giants and Boston Braves played a 6-6 tie yesterday in the Polo Grounds opener when rain and darkness forced the umpires to call the game after the teams playe nine innings in a steady drizzle. Major Lea oue Standings NATIONAL LEAGUE sacker for Indiana proved to be the big gun in the Hoosier attack which rapped seven hits off Mich- igan's Bill Taft. Ritter pounded two triples and a single and drove in the game's only tally in the sixth inning. * * * TOSHEFF opened the Hoosier sixth by popping out to shortstop Bob Wolff, but diminutive second baseman Woody Litz smashed a single into left. Harry Moore went; down swinging, but Ritter scored Litz with a tremendous drive into right center field, going into third standing up. Bill Stearman walked, but Taft put out the fire by slipping a third strike by Gene Ring. Indiana threatened in the first frame, when Ritter hit his first- three bagger with two down, but Taft pitched over it forcing Stearman to ground out short to first. Again in the ninth, the Hoosiers! put two men on base when Stear- man singled along the left field foul line and moved to second when Ring was hit on the elbow with one of Taft's fast balls. They got no further, however, as the rangy Wolverine hurler got Bob Moore on a pop-up and struck out John Kyle. * * * MICHIGAN'S only threat to score came in its half of the fourth when Ted Kobrin walked with two out and Jack McDonald blasted a double into left center, but Kobrin was cut down at the plate on a perfect relay from Stearman to Ring who fired it in to catcher John Gorkis. McDonald also bunted a sin- gle in the seventh, but got no further as he was doubled off first when center-fielder Harry Moore made a nice catch of Wolff's fly. Michigan's other hit came off the bat of Taft who sent a single into center. Despite Indiana's seven hits, Taft pitched a good game, striking out 12 Hoosier batters and issuing only two bases on balls over the nine inning route. The two teams tangle again to- day at two o'clock, with Dick Smith taking the mound for the Wolverines, and Don Colnitis go-I ing for the Hoosiers. By JACK BERGSTROMY Today and Sunday the Mic h- igan Sailing Club will play host to seven other Mid-West schools for the third annual Michigan In- vitational regatta. Saturday the regatta will start at 9:30 at Whitmore Lake. As many of the eight races in each division, as possible will be run off on Saturday and the remain- der will be sailed on Sunday. Races in the 'A' and 'B' divisions will be sailed alternately. * * * THE REGATTA will end at two o'clock Sunday afternoon so that the visiting schools will have plenty of time to get back home. In the event that all of the sched- uled races have sailed the teams will be pro-rated. This takes into consideration the performances of boats which have not been sailed by all the schools. The Michigan Sailing Club is furnishing all the boats used in the regatta. They are ten foot dinghies which conform to the specifications of the North American Yacht Racing Union. The boats will be rotated so that every team has a chance to sail each boat. This elim- inates any advantage one team might gain from sailing a su- perior boat. Skippering the Wolverine boats will be Danny Cortopassi and Ed Stuart. Their crews will be Red Oppenhiemer and Pam Wagner. Ed Bainbridge and Bob Preston are also expected to skipper in some events. -Daily-Alex Lmanian SAFE-Jack MacDonald beats out a bunt single in the seventh inning of yesterday's game with Indiana. He was wiped off the base paths when Bob Wolff hit into a double play. Athletic .Board To Consider Fencing Status Varsity recognition of fencing will be considered at the next meeting of the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics. This meeting scheduled for early in May, will decide the final fate of the Scimitar Club petition. * * * ON MONDAY, the Managers Club passed a resolution, recom- mending the petition, under ad- visement, to the Board in Control. Previously it had been reported that the managers had tabled the motion, under advisement, till their next meeting. These petitions, if approved, would restore the sword sport to the varsity status it enjoyed from 1927 to 1934. This would result in a team supported by University funds which would perform competitively as an of- ficial representative of Michi- gan. They would compete in Big Nine fencing, joining the seven other schcols who now sponsor. sword squads. Along with the petitions, were recommendations about coaching since a varsity team would re- quire a full-time coach. .. -Daily-Alex Lmanian AGONY-Indiana shortstop Gene Ring is comforted by teammates after being hit in the elbow by Wolverine pitcher Bill Taft in the ninth inning of yesterday's game. The Hoosier was removed from the game.

THE EXPERTS SAY that it takes more than reading an ar- ticle from the sports encyclopedia to become adept in a particular sport. Besides knowing which end of the arrow to put on the bow- string, they claim, an archer should be familiar with his equipment and get a chance to see the various models of bows and arrows. A prospective softball star, or even a mis-fit who enjoys swing- ing a bat, will have a chance to swing at the show. For the followers of the cur- rents, the latest in light-weight canoes, outboard motors, and even hip-boots will be available.
