By DAVE RORABACHER Michigan's untested baseball squad opens its annual Southern competition today as it takes on the University of Delaware at Newark, Delaware. Coach Ray Fisher has assigned veteran Marv Wisniewski to do the mound chores against the team which last year shut out the Wolverines, 1-0. Directing activities from behind the plate will be sophomore catch- er Gene Snider who will alternate with Frank Szalwinski through- out the tour. Starting Infield The starting infield will consist of third baseman Don Eaddy, Moby Benedict at shortstop, sec- ond baseman Ken Tippery and at first will be either Jim Vukovich or Tony Branoff. As regards the outfield Fisher FLYING WEST-Michigan's mile relay team, composed of (left to right) Dick Flodin, Laird Sloan, Dave Hessler, and Grant Scruggs battles Stanford tomorrow at Palo Alto, California, be- fore over 10,000 fans. PLAY BALL!-Don Eaddy begins his fourth and final season ars Michigan's third baseman as Ray Fisher's Wolverines open the 1955 baseball season with their annual nine game spring southern jaunt. The capable third baseman will lead Michigan against Delaware this afternoon. From there, the Wolverines will swing the Virginia and North Carolina areas, returning home next week to face Wayne here on April 12. -te r To Indicate M' Netmen Though little is known about the three Southern teams, they tradi- tionally produce quality aggrega- tions. Michigan Hampered Besides the disadvantage of playing on foreign courts, Michi- gan will be hampered in condi- tioning and practice. Bad weath- er has not permitted any outdoor workouts while the Wolverines' foes have been outdoors for weeks. Eight players, including three sophomores will make the annual sojourn. It is quite probable that Barry MacKay will be in the num- ber one position. MacKay, who has gone undefeated in intra- squad competition, is a sopho- more from Dayton, Ohio. In 1954 he headed the rankings of the Ohio Valley Tennis Association men's singles division. Mark Jaffe, another newcomer, may hold down the second slot. A Bay City resident, hehas lost only one intra-squad match. Captain Bob Nederlander, Pete Paulus, Bob Paley, Al Mann, Dick Potter, and Bob Mitchell will vie for the oth- er positions. In doubles, MacKay and Neder- lander will play in the top spot. Paley and Jaffe have captured the number two doubles position. I inksters Journey to North Carolina To Launch Annual Southern Junket By STEVE HEILPERN (K.

Seven of the nine team mem- bers are accompanying Katzen- meyer: lettermen Andy Andrews and Bob McMasters, and sopho- more John Schubeck, Steve Uze- lac, Fred Micklow, Skip MacMi- chael and Ken Myers. Sophs Hen- ry Loeb and Dave Wakely were left behind, but are still very much in the Michigan golf picture this year, according to Katzenmeyer. Myers, while actually a junior in school, has three years of eligi- bility left and remains a sopho- more as far as athletics is concern- ed. Pinehurst a 'Golf Town' This is the eighth straight year that Michigan's linksters have vis- ited Pinehurst, which is literally a "golf town." In fact, the village was built to accommodate people who visited Pinehurst to make use of one of its fivechampionship courses. The Wolverines have had little outdoor practice until now, and have been content with daily workouts in the practice cages in the clubhouse basement of the University Golf Course. Katzenmeyer, of course, is pray- ing for blue skies and warm tem- peratures while his team is in Dixie. Last year the rains came down every day. has Captain Dan Cline. Branoff. Howie Tom melein and Bruce Fox from whom to select his starting crew. All four of these men will undoubtedly see action during the nine game trip. As the Maize and Blue dia- mondmen move on to George- town University and then into Virginia and North Carolina, Bill Thurston and Dick Peterjohn will alternate with Wisniewski in the starting chores. With veteran Mark Ferrelli, back in his native southern element, Don Polosky, Jim Clark and Al Levy available for relief duty, the Wolverines will have a strong pitching staff that will be difficult to beat. Frank Ronan, alternating with Tippery at second base, rounds out the eighteen man travelling squad. Weather Doubtful Fisher is apprehensive about the weather on the trip. His dia- mond crew was able to get in only one day of outside prac- tice before embarking on the southern jaunt and a stretchof bad weather canceling several of the scheduled games, such as oc- cured two years ago, might ser- iously hamper the Maize and Blue The annual trip goes a long way in tuning up the men for the con- ference struggle. Playing nine games in as many days against teams of varying strength, the diamondmen quickly b e c o m e molded into an effective team while Fisher has a fine opportun- ity to survey the different men in action and plan his strategy for the forthcoming campaign. The one danger, of course, is the possibility of a player being injured and consequently lost to the team for a major part of the season, but the vast advantages to be gained and the remoteness of such an incident occurring make the journey more than worth- while.

TRIBE ON THE WARPATH: Indians Hammer Ma glie, Top Giants, 14-11; Braves, Cardinals, Bosox, Nats, Bucs Win' II c. ------ .. By The Associated Press The Cleveland Indians pounded Sal Maglie freely yesterday at San Antonio, Texas, to defeat the New York Giants, 14-11, before an ' overflow crowd of 11,649 that led to 18 ground rule doubles. Maglie was clipped for eight runs and 10 hits by the Tribe be- fore giving way to Hoyt Wilhelm with one out in the fourth. One of the hits was a two-run homer by Ralph Kiner in the third. Each club hit nine of the auto- matic two-base hits into the rop- ed-off sections of the outfield. Braves 3, Dodgers 2 In New Orleans, Rookie Al Fac- chini's pinch single with the bases loaded scored an eighth-inning run that gave the Milwaukee Braves a 3-2 victory over the Brooklyn Dodgers in their barn- storming baseball tour. It was the fifth straight game played between the two National League pennant contenders to be decided by a one-run margin. The Brooks have won three of them. Cardinals 3, Chisox 2 At Columbus, Georgia, Rip Re- pulski singled home Rookie Bill Virdon with the deciding run in the tenth inning to help the St. Louis Cardinals to a 3-2 verdict over the Chicago White Sox. In another exhibition game at Sarasota, Florida, the Boston Red Sox jumped on Rookie Jack Meyer for all their runs in the first six innings to score a 6-4 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies in their final training site game. Senators 4, Bosox 3 At Camp Gordon, Georgia, Mickey Vernon delivered a pinch- hit in the eighth inning Thurs- day and drove in the run that gave the Washington Senators a 4-3 triumph over the Cincinnati Redlegs. Meanwhile at Daytona Beach, Florida, Lino Donoso, Pittsburgh southpaw relief pitcher, struck out catcher Hal Smith with fhe bases loaded in the ninth inning to preserve a 6-5 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. 21-17, 16-21, and 21-15. In the doubles match, Bob Messner and Wally Roeser of Reeves whipped Bob Reynolds and Roy Moxley of Adams, 17-21, 21- 14, and 21-14. Reeves also won the residence halls bowling title last Thursday, and took top honors in foul- shooting Wednesday.
