Gil Kombrink led the IRS Club to a slim 5-4 victory over the topnotch Farouk's Five, as r Jay Goold's sixteen strikeouts were not enough to overcome Kom- brink's ten. Behind the fireball pitching of Dick Ahlbeck, the Firehouse Five plus Four club outslugged the Toads to win, 6-5. - In another one-run-margin- win, Physics defeated Political Science 6-5. Bill Davis gave up six hits, but his teammates walloped out eight hits to give Davis the winning margin. Lopsided Contests In the most lopsided games of the day, the Willow Run Research r Center A team smothered the hapless Psychology B club 25-6; at the same time, the Willow Run ' B team was being pounded for 19 runs by the Museum squad to finally lose 19-2. The Mugwumps showed that it does not always take a nine man team to come out on the top side of the score as they defeated the Nakamura nine 12-10. - Doug Lootens completely domi- nated the Foresters, allowing only two hits and striking out six men, to lead Gamma Delta to a 13-2 win. In other games, the Evans Scholars behind pitcher George Hoaglin defeated Owen 9-3. Eng- lish swamped the Navy-Air nine with a score of 17-4. The Hawai- ians also garnered an easy win as the AFROTC club failed to show up for the game. OTHER I-M SCORES TENNIS Three Souhoii -Daily--ick Uaskil 'SAYS WHO?'-Northwestern pitcher Ziggie Niepokoj heatedly questions the judgment of the plate umpire, who said one of Niepokoj's tosses was a ball. Wildcat catcher Tom Callaway looks on, also obviously disgusted with the call. Troy Draws with Pastrano 11 CHICAGO OP)--Willie Pastrano, 19-year-old boxing cutie from Miami Beach, Was battled to a 10- round draw by seasoned Willie Troy of the Bronx at the Chicago Stadium Friday night. Two officials called the hard- fought nationally televised scrap a deadlock and the third, judge Spike McAdams voted for Past- rano, 95-90. The deadlocked bal- lots, 96-96 by referee Frank Gil-t mer and 94-94 by judge Ed Hinz made it an official draw. Ten Points Under the Illinois scoring sys- tem a maximum of 10 points per round is awarded to the round winner and any lesser number of points to the round loser. The Associated Press saw it for Pastrano, seeking his 10th straight victory, by 98 to 95. Pastrano weighed 166 and Troy 16611. An erroneous impression that Pastrano won on points was given on television. Pastrano who had made a bril- liant TV debut at the Chicago Stadium last month against Al Andrews, found Troy a rugged op- ponent.

Sophomores Bill Thurston, who was the winner, Glenn Girardin, and Jim Clark set down the Wild-< cats on five hits. Michigan rapped out nine hits, including three I doubles, in its winning effort. Today, the Maize and Blue meet Wisconsin in a doubleheader start-1 ing at 1:30 at Ferry Field. Fisher1 indicated that he would probably start pitcher Dick Pterjohn in the first game and Mary Wisniewski in the second. Benedict Opens Scoring The Wolverines opened the scor- ing in the first inning when short- stop Moby Benedict walked and1 scored on a double by thirdbase- man Don Eaddy. This was the first of four hits for Eaddy, who had a perfect day at the plate. The Maize and Blue followed with single runs in the third ,and fourth frames to give them a lead which they never lost. Benedict led off in the third with a single, advanced to third on two succes- sive outs and scored on Eaddy's single through the pitcher's box into centerfield. In the fourth, Walks to Howie Tommelein and Gene Snider, a passed ball by Wildcat catcher, Tom Callaway, and a fielder's choie by Thurston produced an- other tally. Northwestern bounced back in. the fifth inning with a single run. Sophomore shortstop Ed Broeker tripled to deep right cen- ter and when Wolverine second- baseman Ken Tippery hit him in the back on a relay throw to third,; Broeker scored. Wildcats Score Via Walks The Wildcats added another run in the sixth on four walks issued by Thurston. After the Michigan pitcher forced in a run with one of the bases on balls, Coach Ray Fisher sent in Girardin. He ended the inning by getting Wildcat pitcher Ziggie Niepokoj to hit into a double play. The Wolverines added two in- surance runs in the eighth frame. Snider led off with a single and' Clark followed with a bunt nar the first base line. Snider rolled into the Northwestern secondbase- man, "Buzz" Haviland, who drop- ped the ball and both men were. safe on base. After Benedict moved the men along on a grounder to the pitch- er, centerfielder Bruce Fox hit a long sacrifice fly to center, scoring Snider. Captain Danny Cline fol- lowed with his second sucessive double, scoring Clark. The victory over Northwestern was the ninth for the Wolverines this season. They have lost four and tied one. The Wildcats now have an 8-3 record. Pitchers Show Control After some poor pitching and hitting in the early part of the season, Michigan is finally round- ing into shape. The three sopho- Wore Hurlers rts in 5-2 Win in Scheduled To Face header This Afternoon mores showed some good control, especially Clark, who struck out three men in the three innings he worked. Thurston had six strike- outs and five walks to his credit in the 51/3 innings he pitched. The hitting department is still a little weak. However, the Wol- verines may get a lift from Ead- dy, who showed yesterday that he still has his batting eye and can hit when he has to. The doubleheader with Wiscon- sin this afternoon should prove tougher going. Previously rated as the "team to beat" this season, the Badgers lost their first Big Ten game to Michigan State, yester- day. Spartan pitchers Dick Idakow- ski and Jack Wenner allowed the Badgers only five hits while Mich- igan State was piling up 22 safe- ties. Wenner relieved Idakowski in the third inning after the latter had hit two men.

This will be Coach Bert Katzenmeyer's first chance to see how his sophomore-studded team compares with top-flight competition. Ohio State, the 1954 Big Ten golf champs, and Purdue, number four in the Big Ten race last year, both have veteran squads return- ing. Boilermaker Coach Sam Voi- noff has what he terms "a well- balanced team" in his six return- ing lettermen and a like number of promising sophomores. Heading the list of lettermen is, Captain Don Albert, a senior who in 1953 won the Big Ten championship. Ohio State Favored Ohio State, who last year placed four men in the top ten golfers in the Big Ten champion- ship meet, will have enough re- turning lettermen to make the Buckeyes a favorite to recapture the Big Ten crown. In their first match of the sea- son, the Boilermakers topped Wis- consin, U. of Detroit, and Michi- gan State in a quadrangular meet. Coach Katzenmeyer will again be juggling his squad in an at- tempt to find the top combination to use in the Big Ten champion- ship meet. He indicated that OSU and Purdue are probably the top contenders for the conference crown this year. The meet today should provide an indication of just how far Michigan's relatively inexperi- enced squad will go this year. Two Straight Wins Michigan now has two straight victories under its belt, the latest a 2512-102 drubbing of Michigan State. State's squad was, however, a completely inexperienced team without a single returning letter winner. Katzenmeyer was disappointed in the team's showing except for the performances of Bob McMas- ters and Henry Loeb. McMasters' 75 against State was low for Mich- igan and Loeb was right behind with a 77. This was Loeb's first ap- pearance in college competition. John Schubeck, Ken Meyers, and Steve Uzelac turned in cred- itable 76's in the afternoon, but their morning rounds when they were plagued by the elements were something less than spectacular, By PHIL DOUGLIS Chi Psi 3, Theta Xi 0 Alpha Delta Phi defeated Delta Chii (forfeit) Tau Delta Chi defeated Sigma Phi (forfeit) Tau Kappa Epsilon defeated Tri- gon (forfeit) Phi Delta Chi defeated Alpha Chi Sigma (forfeit) Strauss 3, Michigan 0 Cooley 3, Gomberg 0 Huber 2, Adams 1 HORSESHOES Sigma Chi 2, Phi Kappa Psi 1 Delta Tau Delta 3, Zeta Beta Tau 0 Delta Upsilon 2, Theta Xi 1 Alpha Epsilon Pi defeated Delta r Kappa Epsilon (forfeit) Phi Delta Theta defeated Alpha Phi Alpha (forfeit) YANKEES' COLEMAN INJURED: -Giants End Brooklyn Winning Streak Soccer Game The Michigan Soccer Club will engage in its second match of the season against Indiana University on the soccer field east of the football stadium be. ginning at 11:00 this morning. she Wolverines tied Indiana Tech, 5-5, last week. sprinting and low hurdle demon-1 strations by Grant Scruggs and Jim Love.1 Talking with series host H. O. "Fritz" Crisler, Track Coach Don Canham will discuss the United States' chances compared with those of Russia in next year's Olympics. "If we had to compete this summer, our prospects would- n't look very bright," says Can- ham. "But because of many good track and field programs that have been recently developed in the United States, there is a good chance that we can beat the Rus- sians in the 1956 games." SPORTS DON LINDMAN Night Editor If they paid off on quantity, Michigan would win it all. This is the situation this morn- ing, as some 35 Michigan track- men prepare to see action in to- day's giant Ohio Relays in Co- lumbus, Ohio. This huge contingent, one of the largest in Michigan track his- tory, is entered in some 15 events, as some 400 college athletes con- 400 college athletes verge on the huge Buckeye Bowl in what will be the first major out- door track meet held in the mid- west so far this spring. No team score will be kept, but" Michigan will carry home some of the individual glory. The best Michigan chance lies in the dis- tance medley relay, with Laird Sloan, Dan Walters, Hobe Jones and John Moule. Middle distance runner Pete Gray will not compete in the Re- lays due to a light illness. Gray, however, will definitely, be avail- able for other meets. Big Ten Champs Compete Big Ten champion shotputter Dave Owen, hurdling titlest Jim Love, Mile champ John Moule, and two mile kingpin Ron Wallingford, Iwill also represent the Maize and Blue in their respective special- ties. Swanson, in charge of the Mich- igan cindermen while head coach Don Canham is in Germany con- ducting a series of clinics for the U. S. Army, is not too sure of the opposition, so therefore can't pre- dict many of the outcomes. It is known however, that such cinder powers as Indiana (minus relay star Lon Robinson, who pull- ed a muscle the other day), Penn State, and most of the Ohio schools will be on hand. Swanson, on the basis of this opposition, also sees possible Wol- verine victories in the sprint med- ley, the mile relay, and the 880 relay. Slowly fondling his pipe, the bow-tied Swanson added "but if Pittsburgh enters the meet, we're dead in the mile relay with Arnie Sowell running anchor." Swanson went on to view this meet as a "warm-up for the com- ing meets-mainly our encounter with Penn State and Navy in the East on May 7. Our meet next week at Drake is merely for a se- lect few. We won't start worrying about the Big Ten meet until Gal- ham gets back." The meet tomorrow will also tell if big Ron Kramer can shot put. Also much in evidence will be freshmen polevaulter Eeles Land- strum and freshman Geert Keil- strup in the mile. Last year the Michigan distance medley and two mile relay teams swept to victories in the Ohio Re- lays, Fritz Nilsson picked up shot- put and discus wins, and Sloan, running as a freshman, won ,the 600. By The Associated Press < BROOKLYN - Brooklyn's 10- game winning streak vanished in the chill smog last night as the New York Giants erupted f or five runs in the eighth inning and a 5-4 victory with the help of Whit-' ey Lockman's two-run double and, a throwing error by Don Zimmer. With a chance to tie the game in the Dodgers eighth, Zimmer was thrown out at the plate after, Lockman fielded Jackie Robinson's squeeze bunt. * * * YANKEES 3, RED SOX 0 NEW YORK - New York Yan- kee southpaw Ed "Whitey" Ford stretched his string of scoreless innings to 21 while hurling his second consecutive shutout as the Yankees topped the Boston Red Sox, 3-0. Gerry Coleman, Yankee second baseman, suffered a multiple fracture ,of the collar bone in a home plate collision with short- stop Owen Friend in the third inning. He was taken to Lenox Hill Hospital, where his entire left shoulder was placed in a cast. He will be out of action six to eight weeks. He was replaced by Gil McDougald, who has been sidelin- ed by a bad back. INDIANS 8, TIGERS 5 CLEVELAND - Cleveland's In- dians scored five runs on three hits, two walks and an error in the third inning last night and beat the Detroit Tigers, 8-5.
