was not invented by Abner Dou-

English game of cricket and, in a
crude way, it was played in the
Eastern United States many years
before Doubleday was born.

Michigan Golfers Rated
HighInfBig Ten Tourney
By BOB ROSENMAN
Special to The Daily
EVANSTON-A three-way fight
between Purdue, Michigan, and
Ohio State is in prospect as 60
Western Conference golfers tee'
off today in the opening rounds
of the Big Ten Golf Tournament
here at the Northwestern Univer-
sity Links.
The tourney will be a 72-hole
event with 36 holes scheduled for
today and tomorrow. Each team
will enter six players with the
five lowest scores figuring in the
team totals.
AFTER EXPERIMENTING with
several combinations of players,
Wolverine coach Bert Katzen-
meyer has at last come up with
a combination he feels will best
enhance Michigan's chances in
the meet
Wearing the Maize and Blue
today and tomorrow will be
captain Dick Evans, Bob Olson,
Dean Lind, John Fraser, Lo-
well LeClair, and a newcomer,
Jack Stumpfig.
Stumpfig played only in the
match against the University of
Detroit and Katzenmeyer's deci-
sion to use him instead of Hugh
Wright, who has played in most
of Michigan's meets thus far this
spring, was somewhat surprising.
However, Stumpfig has played
better golf in recent weeks to
merit selection to the team.
* * *
MICHIGAN HAS fared well
against conference opposition this
spring. The Wolverines defeated
Purdue 29-7, then lost to the Boil-
ermakers, 18-9, swamped Indiana,
311%-4%, beat Ohio State twice,
25-11 and 20-16, bested Michigan
State twice, trounced Illinois and
tied Northwestern, 132-131/2.
Purdue, last year's Western
Conference champion, will de-
fend its title minus the services
of little Fred Wampler, last
year's Big Ten individualcham-
pion and NCAA titlist, and John
Hare, 3rd in the Big Ten meet.
The Boilermakers will be led by
Gene Coulter, a senior, who plac-
ed fourth in the Big Ten last year
and who went to the quarter-
finals in the NCAA champion-
ships. Other leading Boilermaker
entries are Dave Laflin and Dick
Wibel. Laflin was runnerup to
Wampler in the-NCAA meet.
* * *
OHIO STATE, runnerup to Pur-
due a year ago, has a well-balan-
ced squad led by Tom Nieporte,
who placed second among the in-
dividual scorers last year. He fin-
ished only 3 strokes behind Wam-
pler. Other Buckeye lettermen in-
clude gridder Dick Widdoes and
Don Johnson, both seniors.
Michigan, winner of six out of
the last nine championships, is
regarded as a strong contender,
but everyone will be watching the
host team, Northwestern. The
Wildcats will play over their home
course and their strong showing
against the Wolverines may prove
significant.
T h e Wildcats lack overall
strength, but veterans Willard An-
derson and Bob White may fig-
ure in the fight for individual
honors.
I-M Softball
Crown Wonr
By Prescott
Ferry Field was a veritable hot-
bed of activity yesterday as play
in the intramural softball circuit
approached the final stages.
Prescott House copped the resi-
dence halls championship by vir-
tue of a 23-5 win over Greene
House.
PITCHER JOHN BIERY went
the distance for Prescott while his
teammates smothered two less for-
tunate Greene House hurlers,
Charles Dawson and "Speedy,"
Roush, with a barrage of hits and
runs.
Lead-off pitcher Roush got a
preview of what was in store
for him when he was tapped for
a two-rundouble by Prescott's
centerfielder, Mal Roberston in
the opening minutes of the fifth
inning. The inning ended with
Prescott leading, 5-0.
Relief pitcher Dawson arrived on
the scene just in time to witness
the only home run of the game by
Prescott's catcher, Gerald Arbra-
mow, in, the bottom half of the
fifth frame.
* * *
A TWELFTH-INNING home run
by Joe Hipsil, combined with the
strong arm pitching of Bob
Schmidt, gave Sigma Phi Epsilon
a 1-0 victory over Phi Delta Theta,
thereby moving the Sig Eps into
the final round of the fraternity
sofetball playoffs.
The Sig Eps will meet Chi
Psi, 3-2 winner over Phi Sigma
Delta in yesterday's other semi-
final contest, in the first place
finals.
The other semi-final encounter
saw a last-ditch Phi Sig rally fizzle
out with the tying run left on third.
Chi Psi moundsman, Roy Nelson
allowed two hits, one a run-scoring
final frame hit-and-error by Bill
Blumenthal.

Wolverines
Win in Five
Net Matches
Hetzeck, Bromberg
Lead Michigan Team
Special to The Daily
EVANSTON-Michigan with six
points, found itself tied for first
place with Michigan State's Spar-
tans at the end of the first day's
competition in the Western Con-
ference tennis championships here
yesterday.
The Wolverines advanced four
men to the quarterfinal singles
matches, scheduled for today. In
addition, the number one doubles
team, Al Hetzeck and Steve Brom-
berg, advanced a notch by winning
the only match involving Michigan
duos.
ILLINOIS, highly regarded in
the pre-meet speculation, only
managed to gather three points to
tie for sixth with Northwestern,
the defending champions and host
team.
Hetzeck, the steady Wolverine
captain, took a pair of straight-
set matches in his beginning bid
for the number one singles dia-
dem. He defeated Bob Birnum
of Indiana, 7-5, 6-2, and Bill
Baumle, Northwestern's ace, 6-1,
6-4.
Michigan's other conference
meet veteran, Steve Bromberg, al-
so had little trouble in putting
Ohio State's Bill Van Rieper out
of the meet with a 6-4, 6-2 win. He
followed it up with a quick victory
over Bob Richards of Iowa, 6-4,
6-3.
* * *
THE Hetzeck-Bromberg combi-
nation, hardest workers for the
Murphymen, made short work of
Purdue's Scanlon and Jones in a
number one doubles preliminary
match. The set scores were 6-2,
64.
In other singles matches,
Michigan's lower bracket men1
fared less well than Hetzik and
Bromberg, but gained some
points with victories by Gene
Barrack at number five and Bob
Curhan at number six.
Barrack had a pair of wins-a
6-4, 6-4 conquest of Iowa's Mike
Trueblood, and a close match with
Don MacDowell of Indiana, taken
by a 7-5, 9-7 count. Curhan, the
pint-sized scrapper at number six,
defeated George Wellborg of
Northwestern, 6-2, 7-5 in a well-
played match.
Jack Smart, number three, and
Mike Schwartz, number four, fell
by the wayside in the first-round
struggle. Smart was eliminated by
Iowa's Don Lewis, 6-0, 6-3, while
Schwartz lost a close one to Liv
Taylor of Northwestern, 6-3, 4-6,
6-2W
With two more preliminary dou-
bles matches and four quarterfinal
singles duels slated for tomorrow,
Murphy's netters hit the crucial
point in the championships.
Though they are tied for first,
Iowa with 5%/2 and Indiana with
412 are close enough to give both
Wolverines and Spartans a rough
time.
Ohio State, with one of its weak-
est teams in recent years, failed to
pick up a point. Purdue is a notch
above the Buckeyes with one point,
while Wisconsin has 312 for the
fifth-place spot.
TV Money
May Save
Bowl Pact
EVANSTON -()- A potential
$200,000 sale' of 1952 Rose Bowl
television rights may give new hope
for continuing the Big Ten-Pacific
Coast Conference football marri-
age.
At' least, with such a melon to
slice, officials of both conferences
will think twice before settling for
divorce.
The Big Ten votes today on whe-
ther to renew the Rose Bowl pact
for another three years after a
rather shaky five-year trial of
keeping the big New Year's Day
classic a family affair.
Big Ten athletic directors and
faculty representatives gathering
for the showdown ballot are split
in their views. But hovering over
the meetings is the prospect of a
coast-to-coast video hook-up by
next Rose Bowl time which could
swell the revenue as much as $200,-
000 or more with a sponsored live
telecast of the grandaddy of bowl
games.

Hopes for 'M'
By NORM MANGOUNI
A travelling squad of 30 men will
carry Michigan victory hopes with
them as the 51st Big Ten track
and field meet gets under way to-
day at Evanston, Ill.
Nine preliminaries this after-
noon will open the meet with the
finals scheduled as a twilight af-
fair in Northwestern's Dyche
Stadium beginning at 6 p.m.

THREE RECORDS will be
threatened as the Wolverines and
Illinois battle for the team crown.
Illinois' Don Laz is expected to
better the existing pole vault
mark of 14 feet, 2% inches set
by Bob Cassells of Chicago in
1937.

by the boards is the 4:10.8 mile
booked by Indiana's Don Lash in
1936.
The full list of Wolverine con-
testants follows:
Walt Atchison, Van Pruner, Hor-
ace Coleman, Tom Elmblad, Robert
Evans, Aaron Gordon, Bob Guise,
Dan Hickman, Don Hoover, Delance
Hyde, George Jacobi, Tom Johnson,
Bill Konrad, Joe LaRue, John
Lingon, Don McEwen, James Mitch-
ell, Herb Neuman, Karl Newman,
Doug Parks, Lowell Perry, Robert
Sexton, Ron Soble, Dave Stinson,
Charles Whiteaker, and John Wii-
cox.
