THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE Gs IYunks Take Two from Senators * * * * * * * * * I New York Widens Gap; Phillies Split with Braves IN NCAA TWO-MILE: McEwen Breaks Gregg Rice's Record By BOB SANDELL Associate Sports Editor The talented right arm of Char- lie Ortmann was the feature of the Michigan footballers' second' game-length scrimmage in the Stadium Saturday afternoon. Ortmann paced the blue-shirted varsity to a lop-sided "victory" over the reserves, but Coach Ben- nie Oosterbaan was far from pleased with the general showing of the squad. * * * "THEY WERE poor on their fundamentals," Bennie explained, and he was referring mainly to the rather shabby blocking and tackling exhibited at times. Theblonde left half from Mil- waukee, however, was in mid- season form as he found every receiver with a near perfect pitch. Sophomore End Lowell Perry continued to look good on the receiving end with Wingback Leo Koceski and Ends Ozzie Clark and Fred Picard also snagging Charlie's heaves. ORTMANN'S two sidekicks of. last season, Don Dufek and Ko- ceski, showed a lot of drive when they lugged the ball on the run- ning plays. In that respect it was a repeat of their perform- ance in Thursday afternoon's scrimmage on Ferry Field. > HERE'S HOW-Ted Gray, Detroit Tiger pitcher, talks over the situation with another thrower, Michigan halfback Charles Ort- mann. Gray, disabled for over a month, viewed a Wolverine scrimmage recently and is shown here giving the Michigan passer a few pointers on the throwing of curves. Ortmann isn't planning to emulate the Bengal sidewheeler on the gridiron, however. He'll stick strictly to the straight stuff. MSC Shows Spotty Defense I n Triumph Over Beavers Konstanty Ties Hur To Subdue Late Bo! By The Associated Press NEW YORK-The Yankees did everything but announce their opening World Series pitcher to- day as they battered the fifth- place Washington, Senators twice at the Stadium, 8-3 and 7-4, in two typical Bomber performances. In running their home stretch victory streak to five, the World Champions lengthened their lead over the idle Detroit Tigers to three and one-half games. * * * THE SO-called "magic" num- ber was reduced to four. That is, the Yanks with six games remain- ing on their calendar, can clinch the flag by winning four. In the opener the Champs rat- tled 15 hits all over the outfield grass, and 14 of them were singles. The second game, by contrast, was over all of a sudden. Joe DiMaggio came to bat in the third inning with one out, the bases loaded and the Nats lead- ing 2-0 by virtue of Vernon's first four-master.dThe Clipper socked a double down the left line to clear the decks. Next to face lefthanded Bob Kuzava was big Jawn Mize. The gigantic Georgian unloaded his 24th home run of the year into the far distant right field seats. The Yanks made a couple more runs after that, but they were strictly an afterthought. The 20,- 238 chilled customers had seen what they paid their money for PHILADELPHIA - The Boston Red Sox may not win the 1950 American League -Pennant, but they'll long remember a cold, raw day in September, when two of their pitchers turned in perform- ling Record But Fails ston Rally in Nightcap ances almost unheard of from their hurlers - a doubleheader shut out. Lefty Mel Parnell and newcom- er Harry Taylor today turned back the last place Philadelphia Ath- letics 8 to 0 and 3 to 0. * * * PARNELL, THE classy left hander, started off by turning back Connie Mack's hapless band, 8 to 0, on three hits. He picked up his 18th victory of the season against nine defeats to snap a four game Boston losing streak. * s BOSTON-Jim Konstanty miss- ed fire on a record-tying 70th re- lief job today and his Philadelphia Phillies settled for a split with the Boston Braves. Pitcher Max Surkont's eighth inning single off bespectacled Jim in the second game ruined the pennant-minded Phils' hopes of a double-header sweep. The Braves eked out a 5-3 edge in the finale. The split sliced the Phils' lead to 42 games, depending on the out- come of tonight's Brooklyn-New York game. As matters stand, the Phils still need any combination of five wins or Dodger defeats to nail down their first pennant since 1915. Konstanty came In with the score tied at 2-2 and men on first and third in the fifth inn- ing of the second game. There was only one out. He made Bob. 1 Elliott foul out but walked Sid Gordon on a 3-2 pitch to force t in the tie-breaking run. By BERLE ABBIN Running with the uncompro- mising fortitude of Gil Dodds, Don McEwen gained additional nation- al prominence early this summer as he hung up a meet record of 9:01.9 in capturing the two mile title in the twenty-ninth annual NCAA track and field champion- ships.

Running a magnificent race all the way, the Ottawa, Canada flash won by the crushing mar- gin of 100 yards in humiliating 17 of the best distance men in college track competition. As usual he ran his European type race, doing the second mile faster than the first. Pacing him- self beautifully, McEwen followed the field. for the first three quar- ters and just before the mile he took over and was never seriously challenged after. Don finished the first mile in 4 :32 and then poured it on, gradually pulling away and making it only his one man race against time. By MARV EPSTEIN Charlie Ortmann will have a field day against Michigan State College this Saturday if the Spar- tan showing against Oregon State last week-end was any indication. The Spartans beat the Beavers by better than four touchdowns but actually the 38-13 score is in- dicative not of MSC strength but Oregon weakness. AN OVERDOSE of penalties at Impropitious times coupled with an acute case of fumblitis held the score down. MSC was easily two to three touchdowns better than the final score revealed, but only so because Kip Taylor's lads dis- played clearly that the hooplas which would have one believe that Oregon State will cause anybody any trouble in the Pacific Coast circuit is nothing more than hoop- la. and the pass defense when he mentioned the weakness. Another reason why the mon- ey boys will spot heavily for this week's game is the fact that State did not have to contend with the brand of quarterback- ing they will run up against in Ann Arbor. Dick Sisler ,got the run back a tremendous 400-foot poke over the wall in right center in the seventh. It was Dick's 12th hom- er. Major League Standings AMERICAN LEAGUE W L Pct.
