MIajor League Standings AMERICAN LEAGUE ,MICHIGAN, KELSEY TRIUMPH: Reeves, Gomberg Win in I-M Softball Baseballers Look Ahead To Key Tilts with MSC By PHIL DOUGLIS Michigan's embattled baseball squad journeys to Detroit this af- ternoon where it will take on a mediocre University of Detroit squad in the season's last exhi- bition game. On April 14, Michigan easily took advantage of seven Detroit errors to romp to a 6-1 victory, and going by recent games, it ap- pears as if the Wolverines will not be in too much danger. Coach Ray' Fisher plans to start sophomore Mike Bellows on the hill today, to be followed by Dick Peterjohn, Ralph Fagge, and Jack Ritter. THE REAL danger comes this weekend, as Michigan squares off with, Big Ten leader Michigan State in three big games, games which will have a tremendous bearing, on the conference race. By taking two out of three games on the road last weekend, the Fishermen lost their grip on the top rung, while the slugging Spartans pulverized Iowa once, and Minnesota twice. Michigan did Just the opposite, ripping Iowa twice, 8-3, and 2-1, while dropping a heartbreaker to Min- nesota's Paul Geil and company, ! 3-2. It therefore appears that the b'Mg series this weekend, which will find the Wolverines traveling to East Lansing for a single tilt on Friday afternoon, and' returning here for a big Saturday double- header, is the key series of the entire season. SHOULD the Wolverines sweep the series, the conference title would be practically stored in Ray Fisher's locker, for the Wolverines have only to play mediocre Ohio State once, and ninth place In- diana twice following the Spar- tan series. If the Michigan nine should drop the series however, prac- tically all hope of retaining its Big Ten, crown would be wiped outs The Minnesota tilt at Minnea- polis last Friday was a game that could have gone either way. Michi- gan's Jack Ritter and the Gopher's Giel both pitched fine ball, and it took a ninth inning homerun shot by Minnesota centerfielder Johnny Wallfred to decide the issue. MICHIGAN showed that it had the comeback ability of a cham- pion the next day, by moving on to Iowa City and deflating the highflying Hawks. Howie Tommelein pounded out' four hits in the twin bill, adding greatly to the batting support giv- en to hurlers Mary Wisniewski, and Jack Corbett. Wisniewski scattered six hits, while Corbett gave up only five, as the Wolver- ines avenged last season's twin defeat to the Hawkeyes. ** * BIG TEN STANDINGS W L Pet.

The lone Wolverine goal was scored by Dario Vega with ten minutes to play in the final period. Michigan State had al- ready clinched the victory, how- ever, with single goals in each of the first three quarters. A return engagement is sched- uled for this Saturday at 2:30 here on the soccer field east of the Michigan Stadium. This will be the only home match the spring season for the Wolverines, who next fall hope to be members in the Midwestern Collegiate Soc- cer Conference. Spartan Nett Squad Lacks" Experience By DAVE GREY The Wolverine tennis team has its work cut out for it this week, as it travels to East Lansing to play Michigan State this after- noon and returns to face unde- feated Western Michigan here on Wednesday. The Spartans are dangerous buts not as strong as last year, due' mainly to lack of experience. Cap- tain Jim Pore, only returning let- terman, will probably face Al. Mann in the number one singles. Two sophomores however, Davel Brogan and Dick Menzel, give the Statemen strength in the other top singles positions. THE DOUBLES line-up is un- certain, but the two Brogan broth- ers, Dean Britton and Dana Squire will probably team up, both being former prep school com- binations. After tackling State, Michi- gan will try to break Western Michigan's victory string at nine. The match will be held here on Wednesday afternoon, starting at 2:30 in the Varsity courts. Western key spots are held down by number one man, Ed Foster, who will combine with letterman Jack Vredevelt in num- ber two doubles. Number two and number four singles men, Jim Farrell and Charles Donnelly, will meet Pete Paulus and Bob Paley in first doubles.
