THES -911 IAN DAILY PAGE TRE 6. IAil IE FOR DECISION: Promising Newcomers Vie for Tennis Berths, By BILL BRENTON . Still undecided over his starting Ine-up for the University of De- troit opener tomorrow at Ferry Field, Coach Bill Murphy sends his charges into a final deciding practice session this afternoon. With unfavorable weather ham- pering outdoor practice, Coach Murphy plans to pick arbitrarily his position slate for the opener, but hopes to have a play-determin- ed line-up ready for the Confer- ence lidlifter, against Wisconsin next Friday. * * * MAJOR COMPETITION hinges over the number six singles post and number three doubles com- bination. Senior Doren Russler and Ju- nior Jack Griffith, who battled three long sets yesterday, have the inside track on the posi- tions, but any of seven aspirants could wield the number six rac- ket tomorrow. Ross Herron, four year tryout for the squad, is another great possibility, while sophomores Er- hard Rothe and Dave Barrett have shown promise. ROUND ROBIN playoffs will be broken-up into two brackets. Dick Lincoln, and co-captains Al Het- neck and Don MacKay battling for the top three posts and the seven number six singles candidates. MacKay, called the squad's best net player by Coach Mur- phy, appears to have the edge for the number one post. Ther 6 ft., 2 in. Highland Parker cop- ped the Conference number five singles crown last season. He played six in 1947 and has im- proved consistently since, win- ning two major tournaments in the Detroit area last summer. The only other major letterwin- ner on the squad, Al Hetzeck, grab- bed the Big Ten number two singles division at Evanston last spring. He was a ranking junior player, climaxing his achievements with an Eastern Junior Indoors crown. MUCH IMPROVED Dick Lin- coln has risen from a minor let- terman at the seven singles post last year to a leading contender for the head slot this season. The lone left-hander on the squad, he was starred in major tournaments of the Chicago area. Steve Bromberg is set at the number four post with Lennie Brumms a certainty at five. Bromberg, the lone sophomore in the top bracket, stood out as a junior netter, at Northwestern High School and as a member of theDetroit Junior Davis Cup squad. Brumm, wing on this winter's hockey six, consistently gives the top players a run for their money. He is the "steady" type player. MacKay and Hetzeck will pro- bably pair at the one doubles slot, Bromberg and Brumm will play two, Dick Lincoln will pair with one of t the questionmark seven for the number three position. ON TEHE spo By, ROG GOELZ Associate Sports Editor THEY SAY, "it happens every Spring." They say that on one glorious day in April the "nymphs," the "Royal Coachman," the "Silver Doctor" and (perish the thought purists) even the lowly earthworm transcends all other matters of importance to herald the arrival of another trout season. Fishing is an art unto itself, but trout fishing is by far the elite in this angling sport, and if you don't believe it watch for the number of empty seats in your Saturday classes. ** e. * . NO FOOTBALL GAME or possible weekend in Detroit brought this abundance of empty space. It was the great trout lying in, probably, still snow covered streams that decimated your classes. Experts say that the preparations for this Saturday began last September when the season closed. * * * * THEY WILL TELL uninformed lay people that the trout season never ends. Then if you haven't managed to leave, the Winter trout season will unfold to you as an expert leads you to his den and whips off a "Royal Coachman." A "Coachman" is an amazing fly to behold. It has a yellow body with green peacock hurls topped off by a pair of white wings. All of this on a hook no bigger than a pencil lead.. THE EXPERT will tell you that this goes on all Winter. He will glance, longingly, at a picture of the AuSable and relate how he is going back after the big one. You leave him wondering if he isn't a little off, and you try to figure out how a trout will be a sucker to go for something that re- sembles a miniature of a woman's hat. * * * * SOMEHOW you never got around to telling him about the trout you caught on a bamboo pole with a worm. And for you, it's very well that this wasn't mentioned. It seems as if all trout fishermen refer to anything bigger than a nine ounce flyrod as something resembling a telegraph pole. * * * * AS FOR THE WORM, a trout fisherman (a purist that is) would rather wade a stream for hours and return with an empty creel than admit to using "barnyard tackle." However, worms do catch trout. In fact most books on trout fishing will tell you that trout can be taken on anything short of cast iron. But to the trout fisherman, "the fly's the thing whereby a Rain- bow or Brown can be taken." AND SO IF YOU HAVE NOTICED your housemembers locking them- selves in their rooms, and your professors watching an early fly buzzing around the classroom, mentally comparing it to one he has tied during the Winter, remember that Saturday is the great day when all of these Winter battle campaigns againt trout will mani- fest themselves on local and Northern streams. Stay off of such roads as the Ann Arbor-Saline highway and most roads leading North because they will be full of these warriors of the flyrod. And most of all, when you see them Monday be careful when you ask them if they have won their fight. It seems as if most trout fishermen go for the "thrill of being next to nature" and they will rave about the beauty of a Northern stream (and probably be sneez- ing their heads off from it). 'M'Linksmen Soon to Face, HeavySlate By HUGH QUINN3 It's taken Michigan's golf team a long time to get into gear, but within the next five days the "weather-beaten" linksmen will hit full speed. Tomorrow and Sunday they will' play a 72-hole intra-squad round over the University cpurse. And meets on the following three days with Northwestern, Detroit, and Michigan State will make up for part of the playing time lost due to bad weather. SO FAR the team has been con- fined almost entirely to the prac- tice area, although it did manage Facilities of the Intramural Building will be available as usual tonight for the weekly co-recreation night starting at 7:30. -Earl Riskey. to play a few holes yesterday. And even at that, they saw splotches of snow here and there on the course. Coach Bert Katzenmeyer will use the 72-hole week-end round to help him decide on his line- up for Monday's meet with Northwestern. Right now noth- ing is certain about who will tee off in what order for the Wol- verines. Tuesday's meet will be the third attempt at a play-off between Michigan and Detroit. So far two scheduled meetings have lost out to the weather. IN A MEET earlier this season, Northwestern beat Detroit, and the Wildcats' captain and number one man, Chuck Steingraber, beat the Titans' ace, Sam Koscis. How- ever, neither turned in an excep- tional round. Jim Love and Bob Reiland, Northwestern's only other letter- men, have been playing second and third singles in the meets this spring, which include a win over Iowa. Three newcomers round out the Wildcat squad. .. _: Grenkoski To Face Hoosiers; Michigan Risks Perfect Mark By HAROLD TANNER Atop the Western Conference standings following a sweep of the Minnesota series last week, Michi- gan's diamond warriors place their unblemished conference re- cord on the line this afternoon when they meet Indiana in the first of a two game series at Fer- ry Field at 3:30. Last year the Hoosiers split with the Wolverines and went on to tie Michigan and Iowa for the Big Nine title. SO FAR this season in confer- ence play Indiana has split with Iowa. Bill Tosheff who blanked Michigan on three hits last year is back again and may draw the starting nod for the invaders. In- diana also can draw on topflight righthander Jim McGee or Lefty Bob Bauer for the opening pitch- ing role. Coach Ray Fisher indicated yesterday that Eddie Grenkoski would open on the hill for the Wolverines with Pete Palner behind the plate. Grenkoski posted the first Big Nine victory for the Maize and Blue last week when he repulsed Minne- sota, 6-2, pitching no-hit ball for the last five innings. Both Indiana and Michigan have been bothered by spotty hit- ting so far this year. The Hoosiers have missed the big bat of Tex Fordham University SCHOOL OF LAW NEW YORK Three-Year 'Day Course Four-Year Evening Course CO-EDUCATIONAL Member of Assn. of American Law Schools Matriculants must be College graduates and present full transcript of College record.

Watson is hitting .278 while Moore has a .267 mark -to give theoutfield most of the hitting strength. Fisher plans to string along with the same combination that took the doubleheader from Minnesota. This would place Lefty Morrill on first; Bill Bucholz on second; Captain Bob Wolff at short and Gerry Dorr at third. In the outfield are three of the Wolverines' four .300 hitters. Leading sticker Ralph Morrison will be in center flanked by Leo Koceski and Bob Fancett in left and right, respectively. The second game of the series will be played Saturday afternoon at 2:00. Buchanan''51 Gym Captain Ed Buchapan, Michigan's ace trampoliner, wil captain the Wol- verine gymnasts in 1951. He was elected by teammates last night just prior to the annual gymnastics banquet. Buchanan is NCAA trampolin- ing champion, having successfully defended the crown he won last year. Last season, as a sophomore, he became the only man in tram- polining history to hold the four major tramp titles at the same time. He held the Western Con- ference, Western Open, and Na- tional AAU honors as well as the NCAA laurels.
