M' Wrestlers Satisfied With Showing in NCAA SENIOR CO-CAPTAIN: Returning Letterman Andrews Paces Golfers TENNIS Restring your Racket Now By DAVE RORABACHER What happens to a champion- ship wrestling team when it enters the toughest tournament of them all? To the casual observer the sev- enth place finish in, the NCAA meet -posted by the Big Ten champion Michigan grapplers may not appear to be, an exceptionally good showing.*'However, when one takes into account the extremely tough competition with which the Wolverines were faced, the achievement of the matmen ap- pears more than satisfactory. "This was the toughest tourna- ment I've ever seen," stated as- sistant Wolverine coach Bob Bet- zig. "The boys gave a very good showing of themselves." Rodriguez Wins Four Outstanding in the Maize and Blue cause was 157 pounder, Mike Rodriguez. Never having appeared in a tournament of this magni- tude before, Rodriguez won four straight- matches, two by falls, be- fore losing a close 6-4 decision in the finals. This performance was in the toughest weight of the tourna- ment. Thirty men were entered in this division with five of them be- ing rated very excellent. As an example of the terrific competi- tion present was the fact that Iowa's John Winder, Big Ten champ at 167 pounds who moved down a weight for the NCAA, did not even place. Wolverine captain Andy Kaul fell victim to surprisingly strong Larry Fornicola of Penn State. "Under different circumstances Kaul might have beaten him, al- Gym Clinic April 2 will be an active day for Michigan's Physical Edu- cation department as they will assist in a gymnastics clinic at the Sports Building. Coaching and gymnastics in- struction will start at 9:30 and will be followed by the YMCA state' meet at 2:30. Wolverine Coach Newt Loken will assist in the meeting for Junior Boys, Senior Boys, and Men. though he was a very good boy," Betzig explained. Another exceptional perform- ance was turned in by Michigan's Dan Deppe. Having previously placed fourth in the Big Ten, Deppe managed to equal this standing in the wider competition offered last weekend. En route to his final position, he garnered a sound 12-2 decision over the man who beat out defending champion Dick Govig of Iowa. Sophomore Max Pearson, who has made an ingratiatingly fine improvement over the past season won two of his matches before be- ing decisioned. Betzig expressed pleasure over his showing and pre- dicted better things to come from him next year. Don Haney, whom the assist- ant coach termed, "as good as anybody," fell before the onslaught of his nearly inevitable referee's decision in the first round. Teammate John McMahon also lost out in the first round and proved the truth of Betzig's state- ment, "one slip and a man's out of there." BOBBY SHANTZ ... escapes serious injury Batted Ball Hits Shantz * Wings Gain Ice Finals; Canadiens Edge 1Bruins TORONTO M) - The Detroit Red Wings, powerful defending champions, swept into the final round of the Stanley Cup Play- offs last night with a 3-0 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs to score a whitewash in the best-of- 7 semi-final series. WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (A)- A blistering line drive Tuesday al- most ended the valiant comeback efforts of Bobby Shantz, the Kan- sas City A's little lefthanded pitcher who once was the best in the American League. Shantz was hit on the head by outfielder Earl Smith's liner and for a time it was believed he might have been seriously injured. An examination at the hospital show- ed the 138-pound hurler suffered no fracture or concussion. The ball appai'ently struck only a glancing blow that tore his left ear. The game little pitcher, the league's most valuable player in 1952 when he won 24 games, was making his first start of the exhi- bition season. Smith came up and lined the ball straight at the little pitcher, probably the finest fielding hurler in the game. Shantz stabbed at the ball and ducked. It glanced off his glove, hit his ear and car- omed into right field as two runs scored. By JUDIE CANTOR For someone who as a youngster literally was forced onto the golf course, Andy Andrews has turned into a fine man with the clubs. He tied for 10th place in the 35th Annual Big Ten Golf Tour- nament held in May of last year, with a total score of 312. Sixty men competed in the tourney. In the opening 1954 meet' against the University of Detroit, Andrews paced the Wolverine's third group with a score of 73, taking 52 out of 6 possible points, while in a four-team meet with Ohio State, Indiana and Purdue hej registered the lowest second single round for the "M" linksters, total- ly 155, only five points more than leading scorer Jack Stumpfig. Forced Onto Links Andrews was born in Jackson, Michigan, the son of two strong golf enthusiasts. He was initiated into the game of golf when he was twelve and his parents stuck a club in his hand and pushed him onto the links. It is a move for which he has never been sorry. He pursued the sport through junior high school and high school, playing key positions on the teams. He played only one year for Jackson High, before transferring to Culver Military Academy where he captained the golf team. "One of my most memorable moments in golf," Andrews says, "came during my days at Culver. We carried a three-year victory record, broken only once, by the Notre Dame freshman team. And believe me, they were some team to beat!" Andy, the only senior on the team, and co-captaining the squad with Bob McMasters, played in only one tournament outside of Jackson, besides high school tour- neys, and has won nine of all those in which he competed. On Team As Sophomore His sophomore year at Michi- gan was his first on the team, and he saw little action. In his first Big Ten competition against Pur- due he scored 84 and 79, to total 163, and bettered that slightly against Iowa and Northwestern when he shot a morning round of 80, and shot under in the after- noon with 78, to register a final score of 158. Since then his playing has fluc- tuated continually, his scores be- ing either very low or very high. "I just can't seem to play the way I want to," he says. This state- ment is backed up by an incident that occurred last spring, in a match against the Michigan State Spartans. He was playing in the third slot for the Wolverines and shot two rocky morning rounds of 84. After missing a shot in the after- noon on the eleventh hole, he grabbed his wedge, smashed it over his knee, and the caddy toss- ed the pieces into the bag.

It was Detroit's 13th victory in a row, stretching over the last' nine games of the regular season and the four playoff games with the outclassed Leafs. The Wings opened the scoring near the six-minute mark of the second period, added another goal about four minutes later and com- pleted the rout in the game's finalj seconds.-Vic Stasiuk, Gordie Howe and Tony Leswick were the three Detroit scorers. Montreal Wins In Overtime Meanwhile in Boston Montreal center Don Marshall skated in alone to beat Boston's Sugar Jim Henry at 3:05 of a sudden death overtime tonight as the Canadiens defeated the Bruins 4-3 in their best of seven series. Montreal now leads 3-1. The victory, hard-earned by the fast-skating Canadiens who twice had to come from behind in regu- lation time, put the Bruins on the verge of elimination with a "must" game coming on Montreal ice to- morrow night.t Emil Bouchard, Montreal de- fenseman, was in the penalty box when teammate Dickie Moore grabbed a loose puck near"the Canadien goal and eluded Flem- ing Mackell. He passed to Mar- shall at center ice and Don went in by himself. Bernie (Boom Boom) Geoffrion needed an amazing 60-footshot drilled between two defensemen from the Bruin blueline to send the game into the extra session against the Bostonians.
