Taylor had only four hits to ac- count for the 15 runs, but the four Williams pitchers gave up 11 walks, most of them in one inn- ing, to give the win to Taylor. ' Dave Zolotow led the South Quad- ders with two singles, and one double. * * * ED GODFREY'S batting, and Bob Mann's pitching paced the Gomberg nine to an easy 8-0 win over Kelsey House. Godfrey lash- ed out with a single, a double, and a homerun, while Mann kept Kel- sey from scoring as he allowed 4 only two hits and two walks. Gomberg's powerful hitters took six hits and four walks off Dick Potter, on the mound for the los- ers. In another high scoring event, Allen-Rumsey thrashed Strauss, 14-4. Strauss pitching allowed the Allen-Rumsey crew 12 hits and four walks while striking out none. Strauss batters were able to take only five hits off the winning pitcher, Perry Dan- iels. Jack DeCou hit two singles and a double for the winners. COOLEY WON the contest, 5-3, mainly because of the excellent pitching of Norman Kiel, who struck out nine batters, and al- lowed only one walk. He also led the batting with two hits. Both teams are protesting the outcome of the game between Lloyd and Hinsdale. Lloyd won, 6-3. The umpire's decisions that are being questioned concern several runs scored by both squads by stealing home. Ac- cording to I-M rules, this is il- legal, but they were counted. Wenley downed Reeves house in the closest game, 2-0. The win- ners had no hits, but were as- sisted by four errors and five walks. Harold Poindexter scored the only hit for the losers. Wolverines Blast Three Hurlers for ill Safeties Cindermen SOUTHERNERS WIN AGAIN: Topple West Linksters Lose to North Carolina, Duke DON EADDY, ... "hot-corner" expert Snead Defeats Hogan, 70-'71 AUGUSTA, Ga. - (AP) - Sam Snead gambled with the "grave- yard of the masters, the tortuous 13th hole, and beat Ben Hogan by a stroke in an 18-hole playoff for the Masters golf title yesterday. Snead won by a score of 70 to Hogan's 71 in a duel that carried right up to the final green. They had finished the regulation 72 holes Sunday with scores of 289, highest ever to win a Masters tour- nament. The victory made Snead the sec- ond man ever to win the Masters three times puinting him even with Jimmy DeMaret. By DAVE LIVINGSTON Michigan's NCAA baseball champs took advantage of a shaky defense to coast to an easy 9-1 triumph over hapless Wayne yes- terday afternoon in the season's opening contest on the Ferry Field diamond. Sophomore pitcher Dick Peter- John set the Tartars down with three hits and struck out seven men while his mates pounded a trio of Wayne hurlers for 11 safe- ties in an abbreviated game that was called after the top half of the seventh. The Wolverines, who Saturday concluded a successful southern trip in which they picked up seven wins in nine starts, will see ac- tion at Ferry Field again today when they meet an always tough Western Michigan outfit this aft- ernoon at 3:30. The Tartars had little luck solv- ing the southpaw slants of Peter- john, who allowed only three men to reach base after the first inn- ing when a streak of wildness gave Wayne its only run.. The Wolverine moundsman sent the first two men to face him down swinging, but then a pair of walks followed by first baseman Dick Ortiz' clean single to left was good for a run before Peterjohn sneaked a third one past Paul Zdeb to record his third strikeout and end the inning, From then on Michigan had things its own way. Centerfielder Dan Cline walked to start the bot- Major League Season Begins Today; Close Races Expected (Continued from Page 1) > Fast Start! AB R H E.

Frank Ro- nan sacrificed and everybody was safe when Cline beat the throw to third. When righthander Russ Hughes then gave both Paul Lapley and Don Eaddy free tickets to first, the latter forcing Cline across the plate, the Tartar starter head- ed for the showers. First basemansJack Corbett greeted Hughes' successor, Har- lan Warden, with a sharp single to left which scored Ronan and Lepley with the second and third Michigan runs. Howard Tommerlein got credit for a hit when he beat Worden's throw to first on an attempted sacrifice, then went to second while Eaddy scored when the throw sailed off into right field for an error on the pitcher. Moby Benedict and Peterjohn added two more hits to the fiasco to shove a fourth run across be- fore the inning ended. The Wolverines put together hits by Ronan and Ray Pavichev- ich for another run in the second, and picked up another tally in the third on a pair of infield bingles with a stolen base sandwiched in between. Eaddy's long double, a couple more scratch safeties, and two walks gave Michigan two more runs in the fourth, while the Wol- verines capitalized on a pair of errors by the third baseman to gain their final counter in the sixth. Lakers Top Nats To Cop Hoop Title MINNEAPOLIS -- (RP) - The imperturbable Minneapolis Lakers won their third straight National Basketball Assn. championship last night with an 87-80 victory over Syracuse that crushed the Easterns' rags-to-riches playoff bid. Los Angeles respectively. The Wolverines won all three events from the Indians, Coast Clubs The Michigan track team had an extremely successful holiday last week in California, as it trampled Stanford and UCLA 86- 35 and 96-26 in Palo Alto, and but and Michigan's linksmen returned to the University Golf Course yes- terday after a week of intensive practice in the South, which in- cluded, as usual, a pair of losses to two well-conditioned southern squads. North Carolina defeated the Wolverines, 19%/-71/, and Duke's golf squad rolled to a 22-5 victory over Bert Katzenmeyer's crew, but according to the Michigan coach, the matches were a lot closer than the point spreads indicate. IN THE MATCH with the Tar- heels, the lead duo of Captain Jack Stumpfig and Bob McMasters lost the best-ball and individual points on the 17th.and 18th green. The second group of Tad Stan- ford and Dick Harrison also lost on the all important 17th and 18th holes while the final duo of Andy. I In the Duke match, the Wol- verines, who up to last week had had no outside practice this year, were the victims of the weather as well as their southern opponents who have been play- ing golf all winter. Despite a driving rain that con- tinued throughout the last half All men interested in taking part in spring basketball prac- tice please report to the Intra- mural Building on Wednesday, April 14 at 3:30 p.m. -Bill Perigo of the match, the Michigan squad had only one bad round. However, the Blue Devils were more than completely white washed the UCLANS in the day's entire ac- tivity. The Los Angeles newspa- pers were moved enough by the Maize end Blue thinclad's per-1 formance against UCLA to com- pare the Wolverines with thef great teams in mid-west track his-c tory. Probably the most encouraging note of the entire trip was the running of Michigan sprinter John, Vallortigara. Val, who was out of action last season with an injury. scored double victories in both meets in the 100 and 220 yards dashes. Pete Gray, ace half-miler, pick- ed up first place points for the Wolverines in the 880, against Stanford and UCLA and was edged out at the tape by the great Mal Whitfield in an exhibition en- gagement with Edwards Air Force1 Base. Ron Wallingford was a stand- out for the Ann Arbor visitors, as he sped to wins in the two mile, in both encounters with the Pacific! Coast Conference representatives. Wallingford's 9:28.6 against Stan- ford, was his fastest time in the two meets. John Ross had little trouble in the mile, as he waltzed to the front in both clashes. Hur- dler Jim Love, marked up a dou- ble victory in the 120-yard high hurdles, and the 220-yard lows against UCLA. Pole vault specialist Roger Maugh leaped 13 feet four inches in Palo Alto, and took first place against UCLA to register an un- defeated record for the Western excursion. Michigan broad jumper Junior Stielstra also picked up a pair of first places against the West Coast jumpers. Grant Scruggs continued to mop up the opposition's 440 runners winning in both the UCLA and Stanford meets. Teammate Jack Carroll pressed Scruggs in each! race. Andrews and Chuck Blackett lost on the 18th. ".*the" re' a reason why I EG is in a class by itself It's as simple as this!

Stumpfig played the best golf of any of the Wolverines, turn- ing in a 75 against North Caro- lina. Katzenmeyer was satis- fied with the play of his charges though, and indicated that they played about as well as he had expected. This coming Saturday Michigan will open its regular season play with a dual match against the University of Detroit here in Ann Arbor.

The Dodgers' youth, speed, depth, and power figure to put them ahead of the field but should Charlie Grimm glue his crippled Braves back to- gether in time, they could make a real race of it. St. Louis is shallow, New York has good hitting but lacks reserve pitching, Philadelphia Just doesn't have enough guns-- and while Cincinnati has power to spare and can be awfully rough on a given lay it doesn't possess the polish and pitching depth needed for the full season grind. So barring another "Milwaukee miracle" like the one last season, the Brooks seem a solid choice. The professionals rate rookie manager Walter Alston's outfit as 7-10 choices for the top rung in the National League ladder. * * * AND ALTHOUGH picked for the second division, the local fa- vorite Detroit Tigers boast a "new look" and will unveil thehr 1954 edition in the Motor city at 2:00 this afternoon.
