'M' Netmen Oppose
Titan Squad Today

By DICK SEWELL
Coach Bill Murphy and his six
man tennis squad leave today for
Detroit where they will tangle with
the University of Detroit netters at
2:30.
Making the trip for the Wolver-
ines are captain Al Hetzeck, Steve
Bromberg, Jay Webb, Mike
Schwartz, Gene Barrack and Bob
Curhan.
LAST YEAR the Murphymen
opened the 1950 season against the
k Detroiters and handed them- a
stinging 9-0 loss. The Titans
haven't improved greatly since
then and all indications point to
an easy Michigan win.
RHETZECK and his mates will be
trying to notch their 30th dual
meet win in 31 starts.
The Wolverine captain is the
only undefeated member of the
Michigan squad. So far this sea-
son he has bested opponents
from Western Michigan, Illinois,
Purdue, Notre Dame and Wis-
consin. His closest call to date
was a narrow three set triumph
over Notre Dame's Ken Angyal
last weekend.
The number one doubles combi-
nation of Hetzeck and Steve Brom-
berg is also unbeaten in regular
play. The smooth swinging duo has
won all five matches with ease.
* * *

Gene Barrack, has shown improve-
ment with each contest, and the
young .sophomore figures to play
an important part in Murphy's
plans.
The probable doubles pair-
ings will be Hetzeck-Bromberg,
Schwartz-Webb, and Barrack-
Curhan.
Doubles play has been Michi-
gan's forte all season having suf-
fered only two doubles losses all
year, the last being Smart and
Schwartz' close defeat by Wiscon-
sin last Saturday.
* ; ,*
THE SOPHOI ORE combination
of Barrack and Curhan has shown
fine form all year and the yearling
netters have teamed well to win
all but one of their number three
doubles matches.

DAZZLING DASHMEN:
'M' Trackmen Boast Sprint Strength

By HERB NEIL
Michigan sprinters have shown
more strength in the past few
weeks outdoors than they were ex-
pected to display after the loss of
Art Henrie to the Army this winter.]
Bill Konrad's double victory in1
the 100 and 220-yard dashes plus
the Wolverine sweep in the 100j
against Wisconsin Saturday, to-
gether with Dave Stinson's win in
the 100 against Illinois and South-
ern California at Los Angeles two
and one-half weeks ago have giveni
Michigan new hope in the sprints4

WEAK sprinters have plagued
Michigan track teams ever sincei
Orval Johnson, who was a con-
sistent scorer in both the 220 and
440, hung up his track shoes in
June of 1948. It was particularly
evident in the 1950 Big Ten Indoor
Championships when the Wolver-
ines finished second 2% points be-
hind Ohio State.
Henrie, who placed fifth in
the 60-yard dash, was the only
Michigan man to score in either
the 60 or 440, while Gene Cole
of the Buckeyes was finishing
third in the quarter.
Ohio State's great advantage
over the Wolverines came in the

4mile relay, however, when they
won the event as Michigan fin-
ished back in fifth.
In the Conference outdoor meet
last May Michigan was not able
to place a man in the 100, 220, or
440, nor was the Wolverine one
mile relay team able to finish
among the first five.
* * *.
KONRAD'S performance in the
220 was particularly encouraging
in that he beat Wisconsin's LeRoy
Collins by more than a yard. Col-
lins had scored a third place in
the Big Ten 220-yard race last
spring, as well as winning the 440
in the same meet.

but so comfortable!

By The Associated Press
DETROIT - Gene Bearden, a
castoff relief pitcher, halted the
league-leading New York Yankees
yesterday, sparking the Detroit
Tigers to a 10-6 victory with a
home run and seven innings of
sharp relief pitching.
The Tigers broke up a tight
ball game in the eighth inning
when Bearden, Hoot Evers and
Dick Krykoski homered. Earlier
Yogi Berra and Gene Woodling
homered for the Yankees.
Mickey Mantle, rookie Yankee
outfielder, punched out two singles
and has now hit safely 12 times
in his last 25 at bats.

RED SOX 2, BROWNS 0
ST. LOUIS - Willard Nixon
pitched a two-hitter and hit a
home run for the Boston Red Sox
last night to give them a 2-0 vic-
tory over the St. Louis Browns.
The Browns' tough-luck pitch-
er, Ned Garver, gave only 4 hits
to the hard-hitting Bosox, but one
of them was Nixon's telling blast
in the third inning.

SENATORS 11, INDIANS 10
CLEVELAND-- Eight Washing-
ton batters in a row singled off
two Cleveland pitchers in the

fourth inning last night to score
five runs as the visiting Senators
edged the Tribe 11 to 10 and
climbed back into second place.
The barrage of singles, three
short of the one-inning major
league record the St. Louis Card-
inals set in 1925, ruined Johnny
Vander Meer's first American
League start.
Trailing 11-8 going into the last
of the ninth, Larry Doby and Allie
Clark led off with homers for the
Indians, but the rally fell one
run short. Doby's ninth-inning
home run was his second of the
game.
DODGERS 4, CARDINALS 3
BROOKLYN - Bruce Edwards
singled home one run and Tommy
Brown drove in another with a fly
ball to give the Brooklyn Dodgers
a 10-inning, 4-3, triumph over the
St. Louis Cardinals last night.
Preacher Roe had the Cards
beaten, 2-1, with two out in the
ninth when Del Rice rifled a
two-strike pitch into the center
field seats to knot the score, but
in the tenth Peanuts Lowrey
committed a double error to pave
the way for the Dodgers' vic-
tory.

Nips Winchell
By DICK LEWIS
Pitcher John Biery won his own
ball game with a last-inning Ifome
run yesterday, as Prescott regis-
tered its third straight intramural
softball victory, a 4-3 triumph over
Winchell.
Prescott, who plays Williams
later this week for divisional lau-
rels, overcame a two-run deficit to
set the stage for Biery's blast.
Paul Baughman also homered for
the winners.
* *
WENLEY also captured its third
straight win, with Jim Prokos
pitching a one-hit, 9-2, victory over
Vaughan. Colen LaFave paced
Wenley's attack with a run-scoring
triple, in addition to tallying three
markers himself.
Greene House amassed seven-
teen hits while defeating Tyler
by a 23-7 margin. Greene's Norm
Adsit and Jack O'Boyle cracked
home runs to spark an eleven-
run first inning.
