o' TH MTCI IGAN DAIL Y, - adger Nine Cuts '11 1 Big Ten Lead; Wins 4-3 v Scrimmage Ends Spring Football Today By MARV EPSTEIN Michigan's version of a spring f botball game will wind up Coach Bennie Oosterbaan's two-month clinic for aspiring gridders this afternoon at the Stadium. Starting at 2:30, Oosterbaan and his assistants will send the largest gang of tryouts through their paces since the practices were inaugurated before spring vaca- tion. Many of the men kept out of uniform for the last few weeks because of injuries will be ready to go for their last chance to dem- Gnstrate their talent before first call this fall. * * * THE MICHIGAN wind-up comes a little later this year than that of giost other major universities, mainly because the coaching staff has had to spend more time in the weeding-out process than was an- ticipated. The highest percentage of new-comners since 1940, coupled with the fact that the freshman hopefuls have stuck out the, grind in greater numbers than at any time since before the. war, has made the coaching task a lot more complicated than it has been in some time. Although the spring squad has- n't had'as much individual atten- tion this year as is possible with smaller turnouts, Oosterbaan has uncovered a slew of prospects, but, he says, "most of them won't be ready for another year." There are, however, at least a dozen men who, on the basis of their perfor- mances thus far, seem likely to see plenty of actioin right from Tigers Claw A's, 14-8; Yankees, Cleveland Win. By The Associated Press DETROIT-The Detroit Tigers, Wvho found out Thursday that 12 runs weren't enough to beat the ,Boston Red Sox, banged over 14 yesterday as they whipped the Philadelphia Athletics 14-8 in a loosely played game. Freddie Hutchinson, the loser in 4he Tigers' 13-12 setback at the hands of Boston, turned in a fairly impressive relief performance to- day to get credit for his third win. THE TIGERS just about settled the game with a 10-run outburst in the fifth inning. Fourteen men xwent to bat in that spree with eight hits, four errors, a walk, a hit batter and a wild pitch being chalked up. CHICAGO - Joe DiMaggio's third inning single accounted for both runs to decide a pitchers' duel between Tommy Byrne and Young Bob Cain as the New York Yankees defeated the Chi- cago White Sox, 2-0, last night. Each pitcher allowed three hits as New York won its tenth vic- tory in the past 12 games. Byrne drew the second of three walks Cain surrendered to open the third inning. Joe Collins doubled to right after Phil Rizzuto fouled out, and Byrne stopped at third. DiMaggio lined Cain's first pitch into left field for a single, scoring Byrne and Collins. CLEVELAND-Pitcher Sam Zol- dak's relief work paved the way for Cleveland's 4-1 win over the Boston Red Sox last night. When Bobby Doerr's line drive bruised Mike Garcia's right wrist in the second inning, Zoldak took over and allowed but one run on six hits for the rest of the game. the opening game against Michi- gan State. TIE NAMES of Bill Billings, a new-found punter, Ted Toper, a rugged center, Roger Zatkoff, - a bruising defensive line-backer, Dave Hill, one of the fastest backs uncovered here in years, Lowell Perry, a sure-fingered end, and Frank Howell, a scatback top the list of first-year men. Line Coach Jack Blott has had the most luck in turning up promising material. Emil Mor- lock, Cal Sandifer, Wayne Mel- chiori, Don Rahrig, Bob Timm, and Dick Strowsewski, are the boys who have impressed the most. Bud Reeme appears well on the road to snagging an end position along with Perry. There will be a sprinkling of lettermen in evidence at the Sta- dium today, also. Dick McWil- liams, Jim Scala, Less Popp, John Hess, Bill Ohlenroth, Don Peter- son, Jim Eldridge, Bill Putich, Oz- zie Clark, Don Dufek, Al Jackson, Gene Hinton, Tom Kelsey, and Tony Momsen will lend balance to the crew of freshmen and soph- omores. * * * THE WAY THINGS will be run this afternoon will be a far cry from what spectators can expect at the opener, but this scrimmage will provide the only preview of the 1950 edition of the Wolverines. There will no platoon changes, and all substitutions will be done on pretty much an individual bas- is. Derby Victor Races Today In Preakness BALTIMORE - (P) - Seven three-year-old colts, including the Bg Three from the Kentucky Derby, are scheduled to tangle to- day in the 74th Preakness at Pim- lico. Just about everybody around these parts thinks it will be a three-horse race among Middle- ground, the Derby Champ, Hill Prince and Mr. Trouble, who chased the King Ranch flyer un- der the wire at Louisville two weeks ago. A crowd of upwards of 35,000 is expected to cram into the his- toric old hilltop course for the mile and three-sixteenths event, second jewel in the triple crown of racing-the Derby, Preak- ness, and Belmont Stakes. Besides the Big Three, the field lines up with Sylvester Labrot's Arcave, Mrs. James Carson's Kinsman, Mrs. William H. La- brot's Balkan, and Dooly, who goes as an entry with Mr. Trouble for Cornelius Vanderbilt (Sonny) Whitney. The betting fraternity has es- tablished Hill Prince the pre-race favorite at odds of 8 to 5. Middle- ground is a surprising third choice at 3 to 1. Mr. Trouble is listed at 2 to 1. Wolverines At Madison Track Meet By BYRLE ABBIN Michigan's track squad will go into the Northwestern-Wisconsin Triangular meet today at Madison facing almost an identical situa- tion that it met against Illinois and Northwestern last week. Again, the underdog Wildcats can make the difference between a Wolverine win and a close sec- ond with the few points that they should pick up in key events. Es- pecially harmful is their power in the dashes and broad jump. * * * GOOD NEWS HAS entered the Michigan camp with Coach Can- ham's statement that Art Henrie will run the 220 yard dash, along with the 440 yard dash and a leg of the mile relay. Today's meet will probably give Don McEwen his last chance to break the varsity out- door two mile record of 9:03.5 set by Ralph Schwarzkopf in 19- 39, as he will be running the two mile race only. Thus Wisconsin's Don Gerh- mann should have his own way in the mile and half mile runs, with Northwestern's Dean Pieper and Charles Whiteaker and Doug Parks of Michigan being his main com- petition. THE BADGERS are heavy fav- orites in all the dashes with Jim Englander and LeRoy Collins lead- ing the way. Undoubtedly a big thorn in Michigan's victory plans will be Jim Holland who should place high in the dashes and is the favorite for the broad jump, being the Big Ten Indoor champ. The high and low hurdles hold much of the Wolverine's hope, with Don Hoover a likely double winner and Walt Atchison a sure placer in both events. The field events also are domi- nated by Wolverines. Chuck Fon- ville and Pete Dendrinos lead the way in the shot put and dispus, and Ed Ulvestad and Tom Emblad heading the pole vaulting contin- gent. Special to The Daily MADISON-Wisconsin's Badgers cut Michigan's Big Ten baseball lead to one game here yesterday, nosing out the Wolverines, 4-3. After Michigan had taken a 3-2 lead in the top half of the eighth inning, Wisconsin came right back in its half of the inning to score two runs that gave the Badgers their margin of victory. DAVE SETTLE, third Wolverine pitcher of the afternoon and vic- tim of the Badger's eighth inning attack, was charged with the loss, his first in Conference play. Thornton Kipper went the route for the Badgers, posting his fourth Big Ten victory to be- come the top hurler in the Con- ference. The Badger righthander's 4-0 mark gives him a one game lead over Michigan's Ed Grenkoski, who was pulled in favor of a pinch hitter in the seventh inning after giving up two runs. * * * WITH MICHIGAN trailing 2-1 Leo Koceski singled to lead off Settle Victim of Eighth Inning Uprising Michigan's eighth, stole second and was sacrificed to third. Hal Morrill then powered a long ball over the right field fence for what would have been a home run anywhere but Wis- consin's Breese Stevens field, where the short distance from home plate to the wall necessi- tates a ground rule limiting hits over the fence to two bases. Pete Palmer followed Morrill's blast with a single to right field that scored Koceski from third, The University golf courses will be closed to public play all day today and until 10 a.m. tomorrow because of the I-M tournament. Morrill stopping at third on a quick fielding play by Bruce Elliott. * * * WOLFF DROVE Morrill home with the lead run on a hard drive that bounced over the fence in center field, but was held to two bases by the ground rule. Two pop ups ended the frame, leaving Wolff stranded on second. Michigan Sailors Race In Midwest Title Regatta In the bottom half of the eighth Settle was touched for a single by Bob Shea and then with two outs Paul Furseth col- lected a ground rule double on a ball that cleared the right field wall. Ernie Bauer then lined a triple off Koceski's glove in deep left field, driving in the tying and win- ning runs for the Badgers. * * * WISCONSIN'S first two runs came off Grenkoski-one in the third and the other in the fifth. In the third Bauer singled, was sacrificed to second and scored on a wild throw to third by Morrill after Kipper's infield out. Bauer tallied again in the sixth after drawing a free pass, another sacrifice to second and coming home on Gene Evans' double off the right center field wall. Michigan's other run came in the seventh inning when Bob Wolff doubled to left center and came home on Linc Painter's pinch hit single. The two teams meet in the sec- ond game of the series this morn- ing at 10 o'clock. Bob Hicks will start on the hill for Michigan against the Badger's Ed Keating.

His netmen meet Ohio State in what shapes up as a cinch win for the Maize and Blue netmen, as the Buckeyes are one of the weak sisters of Western Conference ten- nis this season- OHIO STATE has had no suc- cess in the conference this sea- son although they have managed to win some meets outside the Big Ten, mostly from some of the smaller college teams in the Buck- eye state. Recently they were downed by Indiana in a Hoosier rout, 8-1. Thus it appears unlikely that they have enough tennis "savvy" to give Michigan any trouble as ;the power packed Wolverine aggregation should coast to its 22nd straight dual meet triumph. Murphy expects to use the same squad in Columbus that he has used in practically all of the sea- son's meets. CO-CAPTAINS Don MacKay and Al Hetzeck will be the usual one-two punch for the Maize and Blue as they will again play in the number one and number two-slots. Dick Lincoln and Steve Brom- berg, both undefeated in dual meets this year, will play in the three and four positions. Len- ny Brumm and Ross Herron will man the five and six posi- tions for the Wolverines. In the doubles, it will be Het- zeck-MacKay, Bromberg-Lincoln and Herron-Brumm in their usual positions. By LARRY SPERLING Michigan's Sailing Club will be out to prove themselves undisput- ed champions of the Midwest as they take to the water in the Midwest Dinghy Championship Regatta at Lake Oshawnosee, Ohio today and tomorrow. A strong field of eight other colleges will try to thwart the Wolverines in their attempt to de- fend the crown which they won at last year's championships. Pow- erful crews from Ohio State and Ohio Wesleyan are given a good chance to upset the Maize and Blue. * * * ROUNDING OUT the entrees will be crews from Northwestern, Purdue, Notre Dame, Bowling Green, Illinois Tech and Denison. The races will be held in two divisions, A and B. Michigan will have Jim Johns skipper- Major League Standings AMERICAN LEAGUE NATIONAL LEAGUE New York ... Detroit ..... -Boston ...... Washington .

Johns, ranked as one of the best sailors in the country, will have a personal title at stake in to- day's races. He was the winning skipper in last year's champion- ship regatta. * * * ON HAND to substitute for the starting crews in case of a last minute emergency are Jim Ruken and Jane Peterson. The type of boat used will be the Dyer-Dhow twelve foot cat. In order to make sure that minor differences in the mech- anics of the boats does not put any teams at a disadvantage the crews will rotate boats for each race.; The entrants i this race were picked on the basis of qualifying rounds held in the three districts of the Midwest Conference. The top three teams in each of these races were selected to represent their district. * * * * THE WINNER of this regatta will not only be established as the Midwest Champion but will also have the honor of sailing in the National Sailing Champion- ships which will be held at South- ern California in June. Undefeated thus far this season the Michigan sailors, if they win today's regatta, have a good chance of maintaining this un- blemished slate for the rest of the campaign.
