THURSDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1951 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE THURSDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1951 PAGE THREE ZBT, Hawaiians Grab I-M Volleyball Titles; Williams, Strauss Swimmers Triumph 1947 Award Ups and Downs Featured INITIAL SPLASH: phRwevived By DAN FOGEL The I-M athletes had a busy program last night with cham- pionships being decided for fra- ternity and independent volleyball, residence hall swimming finalists being determined, and 32 men en- tering the final round in dormi- tory and fraternity wrestling. Zeta Beta Tau won the frater- nity first place volleyball playoffs downing Pi Lambda Phi. Led by the consistent play of Irv Stenn, Zeta Beta Tau won four straight games 15-9, 15-13, 15-11, and 15-9, after dropping the initial contest to the Pi Lams, 16-14. THE RANGY Zeta Beta Tau squad passed and spiked well while checking Pi Lambda Phi's out- standing performer, Tom Fabian. Stenn teamed with Stan Wein- berger to stop the spirited Pi Lam attack which threatened many times to come from behind. The Hawaiian "C" team cap- tured the Independent first place volleyball playoffs, eking out a decision over Wesleyan by winning four of seven games. Second place honors went to the Hawaiian "A" team beating their fellow countrymen of the Hawaiian "B" team, four games to one. Canterbury Club took third place laurels in a close battle with AP BRIEFS : McCollNamed AP Lineman Of the Year! NEW YORK-Bill McColl, Stan- ford's 225-pound end, was named the Lineman of the Year yesterday in the Associated Press season-end poll of sportswriters and sports- casters. McCll, picked on the AP All- America offensive team, played a superlative game all season in helping Stanford win the Pacific Coast Conference championship and the Rose Bowl spot against Illinois. Earlier dazzling Dick Kazmal- er of Princeton had been chosen the back of the year by a big margin. The great Tiger tail- back received 76 votes of 125 in the back balloting. Hank Lau- ricella of Tennessee, an All America like Kazmaier, was second with 13 votes. Two tackles, Don Coleman of Michigan State, and Jim Weather- all, of Oklahoma, tied for second place in the lineman poll. DETROIT - General Manager Charley Gehringer of the Detroit Tigers again talked with Bill Veeck yesterday about swapping baseball players. Nothing happened. The owner of the St. Louis Browns "didn't make the kind of offer we wanted," Gehringer reported. It was understood Gehringer { and Veeck hashed over a pro- posed swap that would send out- fielder Johnny Groth and catch- -' er Joe Ginsberg to St. Loui in exchange for catcher Matt Batts, outfielder Cliff Mapes and pitch- er Duane Pillette. FLINT-Don Coleman, Michi- gan State's All-America tackle from Flint, will be honored to- morrow at a civic luncheon given by the Flint Chamber of Com- merce. '5' Follows Joe In Retirement NEW YORK-(/P)- Joe Di- Maggio's famous "5", the num- ber he carried on the back of his New York Yankee uniform for 13 brilliant playing seasons, will be retired, club Publicity Director Arthur E. Patterson announced yesterday. In a special ceremony on opening day next April, DiMag- gio's uniform along with his glove and the bat with which he hit his last home run will be presented to baseball's Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y. DiMaggio's number five uni- form is the third to be retired by the Yankees. Bath Ruth's famous Number 3 was retired soon after the Sultan of Swat left the club in 1935 and Lou Gehrig's Number Four followed suit four years later.

Strauss edged Chicago, 32-25, after Chicago's free-style relay team of Bill Sommers, Bill Rahn, Bob Searles, and Frank Haag had turned in a very good time of :48.2 in the opening event to get Chicago off to a flying start.

If it is, the Lions figure their chances against the San Francisco 49'rs with the Western Division National Football League title at stake are pretty good. Layne, after turning in bril- liant performances earlier in the season, has completed only one scoring aerial in the last two games. He got one in the losing effort to the 49'rs two weeks ago but was blanked last Sunday by the Los Angeles Rams. Head coach Buddy Parker is sending his Lions throughkdaily drills at the Hamilton Air Force athletic field, a military installa- tion a mile from the Lions' quar- ters.
