Maple Leaf,

1-0

DETROIT - (P) -Rookie John
Wilson'fiashed a first period goal
past the aging Turk Broda, play-
ing in his 100th playoff game, and
the Detroit Red Wings blanked
the Toronto Maple Leafs 1-0 last
night to take a two-games-to-none
lead in their semi-final Stanley
Cup series.
It was a heartbreaker for the
' 37-year-old Broda, who was called
in by manager Conn Smythe to
inspire his mates. Broda, who had
played only 30 minutes all season,
stopped 24 shots, but not Wilson's.
THE LEAGUE champion Wings
scored when Metro Prystai fed
r Alex Delvecchio in front of the
net at 15.33. Alex fired a shot that
Broda blocked but Wilson flicked
the rebound past Turk's foot.
In the final period, the Wing
goalie Terry Sawchuk turned
back 11shots to record his sec-
ond straight shutout against the
defending champions and his
third in two years of playoffs.
Only nine penalties were called,
r" in sharp contrast to the opening
game's record-breaking 29.

a 343-foot homer over the center
field wall in the fourth inning yes-
~terday to give the Philadelphia
Phillies a 3-2 decision over the De-

Young rookies hurler Lou Pos-

he held the Tigers scoreless for
six innings on two hits.
The Tigers got both their tallies

down the third base line and beat
Wade's throw to first. He was
quickly erased on a double play.

PRINCETON, N. J.-(P)-Ford
Konno, Ohio State's freshman
swimming star, came from 40 feet
behind last night to defeat Yale's
Jimmy McLane and defending
champion John Marshall in the
1,500-meters freestyle, opening
event of the 29th NCAA swimming
championships.
The time was 18:15.5.
* * *
MARSHALL built up a tremen-
dous lead midway in the marathon
event, but it was not enough to
withstand the closing surge of the
Ohio State freshman. Marshall,
tiring badly, also was passed by
teammate McLane, the 1948 Olym-
pic champion at the distance.
Konno's time bettered the list-
ed national collegiate record of
18:18.8 set by Marshall in last
year's NCAA championships, but
it was not as fast as his 18:11.5
performance in the recent Big
Ten meet.
Michigan had no one entered in
the 1500-meter race last night.

CO-CAPTAINS John Davies and
Stew Elliott will battle defending
NCAA champion Bob Brawner in
the 200-yard breast stroke race
tonight, while IDon Hill will again
tangle with Dick Cleveland of Ohio
State and Michigan State's Clark
Scholes in the 50-yard free-style
event.
Michigan's other entries in to-
night's activities are Wally Jef-
fries and John Ries in the 220-
yard free-style, Jim Walters in the
low-board diving, and the 300-
yard medley relay team.

tional Hockey League Stanley Cup
playoff series.
The victory gave the Canadiens
a commanding 2-0 lead in the
best-of-seven series.
The Leafs missed a tying
chance early in the final period.
Marcel Pronovost went to the
penalty box for hooking Toron-
to's Ray Timgren. The Leafs
battered in for the kill but Sid
Smith, with an open net in front
of him, lost the puck four feet
out.
Then Max Bentley slashed two
Shots that Sawchuk stopped. Mo-
ments later Terry blocked Harry
Watson's 20-faooter. And George
Armstrong stroked a hard shot at
the Wings' net from 25 feet but
it sailed wide.
Sawchuk made one of the
game's great saves when Smith
blasted a 15-footer right at the
net from straight out.

Three weeks ago the Big Ten
indoor mile record was crossed
from the record books by a Michi-
gan sophomore.
For John Ross, the Wolverine
miler who clipped off the distance
in 4:09.4, a. second faster than
Don Gehrmann's old mark, this
was the peak of a still compara-
tively short, but record-smashing,
track career.
* * *
AND WITH TWO more years of
varsity competition ahead the
Canadian-born speedster has am-
ple opportunity to exploit further
his tremendous potentialities.
His ability to carry a terrific
pace and still have a burst of
speed left at the finish helps to
make Ross one of the most
promising distance runers to hit
the Big Ten since Wisconsin's
Gehrnmann and Wolverine team-
mate Don McEwen began rip-
ping up Western Conference
record books.
In setting the new mile stand-
ard in the Big Ten meet Rome also
broke the old Michigan varsity
record held by McEwen.
LATER IN THE same meet he
came back to set another varsity
mark in the half-mile. Although
he trailed Illinois' Henry Cryer
across the finish line, Ross turned
in his fastest time for the event
and chopped .5 second off Bob
Ufer's top Wolverine mark of
1:53.9.
Last season the freshman eli-
gibility rule kept Ross from see-

the last man on the squad until
he began to sweat some of the
encumbrance off.
But when the Big Ten cross-
country championships came up
in Chicago "Fat" Ross, as he
had come to be called, was the
first Wolverine to" "roll" across
the finish line, placing sixth out
of a field of about 80 harriers.
In the Michigan State Relays
this winter Ross, running the mile
leg as the Wolverine medley relay
team sped to a new world's record,
lapped all the other teams except
Michigan State.
* * *
THIS SUMMER the sensational
sophomore is a sure bet to gain
a berth on the Olympic squad of
his native Canada. In fact, he just
missed making the Canadian
squad four years ago, when he
was sixteen.
At that time, although only
a junior in Ontario's Oakville
High School, Ross was both the
Junior and Senior Dominion
open champion in the mile.
After his auspicious high school
track career Ross had a tough
time deciding where to go to col-
lege, but, due largely to the influ-
ence of his long-time friend Mc-
Ewen, he decided that Michigan
was as good n place as any to go
on cracking records.

A 6-9 center is the new toast
of the collegiate basketball world,
and his Kansas teamma4tes are
still drinking to the record-break-
ing performances that gave the
Jayhawks the NCAA hoop title
for 1952.
Big Clyde Lovellette, 250 pounds
of hardwood finesse from Terre
Haute, Ind., poured in 33 points
against St. John's Wednesday
night to lead Kansas to an easy
80-63 win in the championship
finale at Seattle.
With his 12 field goals and nine
free throws, Lovellette ran his
four-game NCAA playoff scoring
total to 141 markers, 58 more than
the old mark set by Don Sunder-
lage of Illinois last year.
THE DEADLY pivot operator
operator started his scoring
splurge with 31 points in theopen-
ing encounter with TCU. He fol-
lowed with a tournament stand-
ard of 44 in a 19-point victory
over' St. Louis and 33 in the semi-
final clash against Santa Clara.
In addition, Lovellette also
established a new free throw
record of 35 for the four games,
and was designated as the most
valuable player of the tourney.
Lovellette put the Kansans,
eighth-ranked in the AP poll,

JOHN ROSS
. . . nifty swifty
ing any action in varsity meets.
But he did give a good indica-
tion of things to come when he
entered the Drake relays ant
proceeded to whip the Finnish
national champion, Purdue's
Dennic Johannson, in the mile.
The fleet Canadian owns Michi-
gan freshman records in the 1
mile, the 3/4 mile, and the indoor
and outdoor mile.
* *
WHEN ROSS reported for cross-
country practice last fail he was
so overweight that Coach Don
Canham is reported to have
quipped, "He never runs, he rolls."
Carrying 25 extra pounds, he was

ahead with an early free throw,
and they stayed in front the rest
of the way. He notched 16 of. his
tallies in toe first half, and came
back with 17 more to run his sea-
son total to 762.
BY THE END of the opening
quarter the count was 18-13, and
the winners increased their ad-
vantage to 41-27 at halftime.
In the second half, the dead-
eye Jayhawks registered 39
scores to erase the high game
score mark for a championship
final and present Coach Phog
Allen with his first NCAA crown.
CCNY held the old standard
with 71 points against Bradley
for the title in 1950.
Big Ten champion Ililnois
gained third position in the play-
offs by downing a game Santa
Clara five, 67-64, in the consola-
tion round.
Santa Clara kept challenging
all the way, but after the score
was knotted at 57-all and 58-all,
the Illini pulled ahead to 64-60
and held on to finish three points
in front. Sophomore center John
Kerr paced the victors with 26
points.
Kansas had beaten Santa Clara,
74-55, and St. John's had upset
Illinois, 61-59, in the semi-finals.

tle, the Kansans now move to
Kansas City where they make
their opening Olympic bid tomor-

THE six - foot - nine Lovelette,
whose three-year point output is

companions through the college
half of the draw.

the U.S. in the Olympics will be
chosen from the squads of the
two finalists.
