Drake, Penn Relays This
Give Trackmen Stiff Com

Weekend

By BILL GRANSE
"We're going to have to beat
'UCLA, Notre Dame, and Oklahoma
A&M," Assistant Track Coach El-
mer Swanson observed when com-
menting o n t h e Wolverines'
chances in the Drake Relays this
r Friday and Saturday in Des
Moines, Iowa.
The Oklahoma A&M contingent
is favored to cop most of the
events, although competition is
based on individual showings and
not on team performances. The

Aggies are favored in
medley, the four-mile
the broad jump.

relay, and

Michigan is sending athletes to
Iowa and also to Philadelphia, Pa.,
to compete in the Drake and Penn
relays respectively. Track stars
from all over the country will be
competing against the Wolverines
in these events.

ex-University of Kansas star, run-

The greatest worry to the Wol-
verines will be Northwestern's
Jim Golliday, running in the 100-
yard dash, who shares the world's
record for the 100 meters. John~
Johnson will represent Michigan
in this event n the qualifying
round which will be held today.
Ron Wallingford will run in the
open two mile run, while Swanson
is sending Dan Walter, Hobe
Jones, John Moule and Pete Gray
to perform in the two mile relay
on Saturday. Swanson anticipates
trouble from Indiana, winner of
this event in the Ohio Relays.
Indiana will be without the
services of distance star Jim Lam-
bert, who is suffering from a vi-
rus infection. However, Len Robin-
son, Hoosier anchorman, who
missed the Ohio Relays because of
an injured leg, expects to partici-
pate in the meet.

Both Ron Kramer and Mark
Booth will miss the trip because of
injuries. Kramer has a sore hand
which would bother him in the
field events. Booth has been lame
for several weeks.
Roosevelt Grier, of Penn State,
who defeated Dave Owen in the
shot put at Ohio, will be the man
for Owen to beat in the Penn Re-

gISAA~ a stron~ asser~. was ev

By MILT NATHANSON
Many years ago a little kid used
to crawl through a fence behind
his house onto the Red Run Golf
Course, only to be booted off.
The lad wasn't discouraged,
however, and today is Co-captain,
of Michigan's golf team, Bob Mc-
Masters.
McMasters has averaged a neat
75 in Michigan's five matches thus

It was a busy day on Ferry Field yesterday.
Under a blazing spring sun, ROTC cadets drilled, bands played,
and the Michigan football team, sparked by the flying feet of Jim
Pace, churned the soft turf into thousands of tiny pits.
Unnoticed only a few hundred yards away another type of acti-
vity was going on. Huge steam shovels and dozens of men dug deep
into the earth, hollowing out the outline of what will soon be the
"nation's finest swimming pool.
A few feet away, workmen were putting the interior touches
on the building which will soon become the nerve center of every,
Michigan sporting endeavor.
* * * *
THIS writer was lucky enough to tour the unfinished athletic
administration building yesterday through the courtesy of Don
Weir, Michigan's genial ticket manager, who put aside his ducats
and headaches long enough to show us what will 'soon be one of
the finest structures of its kind anywhere.
Entering the impressive glass entrance on the corner of State
and Hoover Streets, workmen were busy installing the final touches
on a huge lobby-featured by a large ticket window on one side,
and a receptionists' office at the far end. Over it all was a space
for a huge 11 by 15 foot mural of the Michigan Stadium, which
will be illuminated and thereby visible down State Street at night.
We picked our way over the maze of wires, boards, and beams
r into what would soon be a gigantic ticket office. This was Wier's,
department, and from all appearances it will serve his purposes well.
Not only are there huge ticket windows in the lobby, but also
an entrance that leads directly to track and baseball events.
* * * *
Eye to the Future ..
IN THE BACK of the ticket department are four windows over-
looking the mammoth hole in the ground outside. Weir ex-
plained that by next January, these windows will be looking into
the lobby of the new men's pool, thus further centralizing the Mich-
igan athletic plant.
In the other main floor wing, we viewed spaces for Les Etter's
athletic publicity department, and the spacious offices of athletic
director, H. 0. "Fritz" Crisler.
On the second level, there will be a whole wing devoted to
coaches offices, and another wing for football exclusively.
Scheduled to open its big glass doors on June 1st, the building
also has a huge basement area, filled with football projection rooms,
film vaults, and storage space.
THERE were even a few noticeable yawning spaces awaiting the
arrival of Michigan's huge trophy collection.
It seems the only thing that the Michigan athletic department
* failed to provide for in its new building was a niche for old Paul
Bunyan . . . the ill fated Michigan-Michigan State football trophy
... And frankly, who cares?

McMasters Shines in Early
'Season Links Squad Meets

Enthused over the fine sophomore
contingent on the team, he says
"they have fine potential, and, if
they shape up, we're in for a great
year."
McMasters hails from Royal
Oak, where, at the age of eight, he
became a caddy. He toted clubs
for quite a few years, and devel-
oped his appreciation for golf by
doing so. One of his many experi-
ences as a caddy came in 1950,
when he caddied for Marty Furgol
in the Motor City Open.
A junior in the School of Busi-
ness Administration, he plans on
going into some type of technical
sales after he graduates, and has
no plans for professional golf.
Has Improved Constantly
McMasters began playing the
game seriously when he entered
Royal Oak High School. His con-
stant improvement can be seen by
comparing his averagerscores for
each of his three years of high
school competition: in the tenth
grade he averaged 94, in the elev-
enth, 81, and in his senior year, 76.
It was during his senior year
that he won the All-State High
School Tournament, shooting a
fine 74.
An Evans Scholar, he starred on
Michigan's freshman team, and
his play was good enough to win
the annual freshman tournament.
He has developed well since then
under the watchful eye of Coach
Bert Katzenmeyer.
McMasters retains the same ea-
gerness for the sport which he had
when he used to crawl through
fences, but now he is more than
welcome at the front door.

pitch in the seventh inning to
score the winning run, as Sigma
Alpha Mu beat Phi Gamma Del-
ta, 5-4, yesterday afternoon in I-M
social fraternity softball play.
The Sammies, trailing 4-1, took
advantage of Phi Gam pitcher

ed three runs in the sixth inning,
to send the game into extra in-
nings.
Basil Nemer opened the sixth!
frame for the Sammies with a
clean single to center. Joel Tauber

but Irv Tobocman was hit by a
pitched ball to load the bases.
Larry Pearlman then walked to
drive in one run; Warren Werthei-
mer reached first on an error to
drive in another run; and Al Rein,
walked to drive in the typing run.
The Phi Gams garnered all their
runs in the first inning on a sin-
gle, two base-on-balls, two errors,
and two wild pitches.
After his rocky first inning,
Sammy pitcher Paul Groff sky set-
tled down and pitched a no-hit-

ter from there on in. Groff sky
struck out eight batters.
