TRACK HOPES DASH-ED:
Henrie, Mitchell Lost for Buckeye Meet.

Murphy Takes Six Men
For eeks-end Matches

* * *

By BOB VOKAC
M i c h i g a n's track fortunes
against Ohio State tomorrow af-
ternoon received a jolt when
Coach Don Canham disclosed yes-
terday that injuries have scratch-
ed Art Henrie and Jim Mitchell
from competing in the only home
cinder clash of the season.
In what is shaping up to be a
very close meet, the loss of Henrie
in the dashes and Mitchell in the
hurdles will keep the pressure on
the Wolverines in, every event of
the crucial test with the Western
Conference Indoor Champions.
GENE COLE, ace dash man for
Buckeyes, is now slated to have
things his own way in the 100 and
220 yard dashes with Henrie now
out of the running.
Although Don Hoover and
Waly Atchison will be in top-
notch shape for the hurdle
events, the striking of Mitchell
will still cost the Wolverines
points in the high sticks.
Aaron Gordon has sufficiently
recovered from his previous in-
jury to be paired with Len Truex,
the sensational sophomore miler
of the Bucks. Charlie Whitaker

and George Jacobi wil also vie
with the vaunted Truex in the 880
grind.
* * *
RATHER THAN run Don Mc-
Ewen in both the mile and two
mile, Coach Canham stated that
the flashy Wolverine star will be
used only in the two mile classic.
McEwen will find tough com-
petition in Frank D'Arcy who
ran behind him in the Big Ten
indoor finals last March.
But slated for double duty is
Charlie Fonville. Besides heading

the shot put event, Fonville will
also be entered in the discus throw.
Buckeye Bill Miller, who has
thrown the disc 168 feet during
his career, will provide the key
competition for Fonville who was
throwing 162 feet prior to his
back injury in 1948.
Both Henrie and Mitchell are
suffering from hamstring leg
muscle injuries. Henrie's condition
is least serious as he may be able
to run in Illinois-Northwestern-
Michigan triangular meet at
Champaign next week.

Major League Standings

By DAVE PRESTON
Coach Bill Murphy will have a
much better concept of the
strength of his Michigan tennis
squad after away meets with Wis-
consin and Northwestern this
weekend.
Led by Co-captains Don Mac-
kay and Al Hetzeck six men are
making the trip, which will serve
as a preview to the Conference
Championships to be held in less
than a month.
IN MADISON today the Wol-
verines will match rackets with
Wisconsin which dropped a match
to Michigan ,State, but rebounded
to edge a highly regarded Notre
Dame team.
The Badgers are considered
the darkhorse team in the Big
Nine, and on paper appear to
be on a par with the Wolverines.
They have a predominantly vet-
eran crew paced by Gordy Mueller,
who will be one of the top per-
formers the Maize and Blue will
face all season.
MICHIGAN travels to Evanston
tomorrow to meet a power-laden

I-M Spring Sports In High Gear

Wildcat aggregation, which has
been installed as an overwhelming
favorite to capture its third
straight conference crown. It will
be the first match of the season
for Northwestern.
In Grant Golden they have a
player who possesses a high na-
tional ranking as a result of his
fine play on the tournament
circuit last summer. His sup-
porting cast includes holdovers
Bill Landin and Scott Pieters.
With one exception the Wolver-
ines will use the same lineup which
trounced the University of Detroit
last Saturday.
MACKAY will occupy the num-
ber one singles slot followed by
Hetzeck, Dick Lincoln, Steve
Bromberg, and Lennie Brumm.
Brhe number six singles will
mark the baptism of fire for new-
comer Ross Herron. He won the
right to make the trip by virtue of
his fine work during practice this
week.
In the doubles Mackay will pair
with Hetzeck, Lincoln with Brom-
berg, and Brumm with Herron.

In Fraternity

thSoftball continued to dominate
the Intramural Program among
the Professional Fraternities this
week.
The Law Club walloped Sigma
Delta Chi 19 to 4. John Hubbard
pitched a fine game for the - ic-
tors, while Olly White slammed out
a home run for the winning cause.
* * *

Pitches No-hitter
Wally Gacek, former Wol-
verine Hockey player, pitched
s a no-hit, no-run game as the
Dogers beat the Newman Club,
3-0 yesterday in an intra-mural
softball game.
Gacek struck out fifteen men
in the course of the six inning
game which highlighted com-
petition in the Independent
League.
George Bruske shared the throw-
ing duties for the losers. The Law
Club has been undefeated so far
this season.
In another game Alpha Rho
Chi shellacked Phi Rho Sigma
13 to 6. Robert.Meacham pitch-
ed for the Alpha Rho's.
Professional Fraternity tennis
began this week as Phi Alpha Kap-
pa edged Alpha Chi Sigma 2
matches to 1. A doubles match had
been scheduled, but because Phi
Alpha Kappa lacked a man this
match was changed to singles.
All matches were in straight
sets, as Bob Hoolsema defeated
Hank Dombrouski 7-5, 6-1, and
Van Buen measured Bob MacLean
6-0, 6-3 for the victors, while John
Norman salvaged the Alpha Chi

Program Notes

-1

Residence Hall ...
Tyler and Williams became the
first teams to capture their di-
visional championships in soft-
ball, as the Residence Halls mov-
ed into the third week of I-M
spring sports.
Behind the one-hit pitching of
Roy Eloy, Tyler edged Prescott
2-1, scoring their only runs with;
two outs in the last half of the
last inning.
. . *
THE VICTORY threw the Lea-
gue D race into a three-way tie
between Vaughn, Prescott, and
Tyler. Each team has won two
and lost one, so the championship
was decided on the basis of total
runs scored during the season. Ty-
ler's previous 19-1 victory over
Strauss gave them the edge here.
Roger Roemitch poked out a
Texas League single, scoring
team mate John Biery from sec-
ond base, and enabling Hayden
to nip Anderson 12-11.
Hayden had an 11-2 lead going
into the fifth inning, but Ander-
son scored 9 runs in the top of
that frame. Hayden House now
leads their league with a 3-0 rec-
ord.
Wililams won a forfeited game
from Wenley which gave them the
League B title. They have three
straight victories.
* * *
IN OTHER softball games Hins-
dale blasted Greene 15-7, and
Michigan beat Adams 4-2. Both
League A games were forfeited,
Lloyd and Vaughn getting free
victories from Fletcher and
Strauss.
In the horseshoe elimination
t o u r n a m e n t, Allen-Rumsey
blanked Strauss and Anderson,
3-0. Chicago nipped Greene 2-1,
and Vaughn won a forfeit game
from Fletcher.
Tyler, Lloyd, and Michigan ad-
vanced to the semi-finals by vir-
tue of their last victories. Tyler
defeated Cooley 3-4, and Lloydj
and Michigan won forfeit games
over Allen-Rumsey and Strauss.
Fraternity.. .
Division championships in So-
cial Fraternity softball have al-
ready been clinched by Chi Psi
and Phi Delta Theta.
Two more fraternities, Sigma
Chi, defending softball champs,
and Sigma Phi Epsilon, overall
leaders in IM sports for the 49-50

season, have chalked up 3-0 rec-
ords.
SENSATIONAL PITCHING by
Roy Nelson and tremendous clout-
ing by Don McIntosh, Jack How-
ard, and Ron Wells are big rea-
sons in Chi Psi clinching the divi-
sion four title.
McIntosh and Wells both
have smashed four circuit clouts
while Howard has three to his
credit.
Instrumental in Nelson's suc-
cess is an ability to come through
with a smoking fast ball.
Featuring Phi Delta Theta's
division five championship squad
is Jim Kern, who has twirled
a no-hitter and a one-hitter.
* * *
ON THE OFFENSIVE side of
the picture for the division five
champs, John Ghindia has con-
nected for four round-trippers.
Sigma Chi leads division six.
In copping its three victories
thus far, offensive fireworks
have been the highlight as Sig-
ma Chi has tallied 41 runs.
Perhaps the best hurler in the
fraternity softlball league is to be
found on the Sigma Phi Epsilon
roster in the person of Bob
Schmidt.
Bob has tossed a no-hitter, a
one-hitter, and a two-hitter to ac-
count for IM the leaders' three
victories. In addition to his fancy
twirling, Bob is the leading hitter
for Sigma Phi Epsilon.
Aiding Bob in the offensive
side of the picture are Ben Sloat,
and Fred Auch. The latter is
credited with a grand slam ho-
mer this spring.
Other leaders in their respective
divisions are: number 1, Beta'
Theta Pi and Delta Upsilon; num-
ber 2, Theta Xi; number 3, Pi
Lambda Phi and Sigma Nu; num-
ber 7, Lambda Chi and Zeta Psi;
and number 9, Chi Phi.

W. Va. - Bantam Ben Hogan
still after his first comeback tri-
umph, grabbed the first round
lead in the $10,000 Greenbrier
Open golf tournament yesterday
with a six-under-par 64.
The plucky little Hershey, Pa.,
veteran had his irons game
working beautifully as he took
a two-stroke edge over host pro
Sammy Snead and Henry Ran-
som of St. Andrews, Ill., each
of whom had a 66.
Hogan, who explained that he
"just played around and hit a
few in," had three birdies on each
nine as he put together his best
score since returning to the com-
petitive wars early this year after
a layoff because of automobile ac-
cident injuries.
