THURSDAY, MAY 5, 1955 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE TIMES THURSDAY, MAY 5, 1955 TUE MICHUiAN DAILY PAGE TEREE ImM SPORTLIGHT . ..by steve heilpern NOTHING, including a Supreme Court decision, can prevent Gomberg from capturing its third straight all-year intramurals champion- ship in the Residence Halls Division. With 1421 points already in its scoring column, the South Quad- ders are mathematically insured of staving off any miracuolus bid by second-place Lloyd, which has totaled 1267 points. The social fraternity race is far from over, with a three-team dog- fight currently going on for the coveted number one spot. Sigma Alpha Mu is leading the pack at present, but Phi Delta Theta is only four points behind and SAE is but 20 off the pace. Softball, golf, tennis and horseshoes, the only incomplete sports on the schedule, will be followed with more than casual interest this year because of the closeness of the race. Newman Club and Nu Sigma Nu, in the Independent and Pro- fessional Fraternity divisions, respectively, are both comfortably in first place.

INTRAMURALS Director Earl Riskey told us yesterday of a proposed change in the social fraternity setup. One sore spot in this division has been the inability of smaller houses to field teams in the three major sports-touch football, basketball and softball-and also, the fact that smaller fraternities very seldom walk off with trophies in any sport. Here's the proposed solution: allow these houses to double up for ' the major sports and participate in a separate league. Points would be awarded as in the regular loop play, and winners would receive trophies. The points obtained in this "little league," or whatever it will be called, will be added on to tne regular social fraternity tally sheet. Already under consideration by the Interfraternity Council, the plan will, of course, need the approval of the houses involved. Riskey be- lieves that the idea is an excellent one, and thinks that it will create more interest among these smaller teams. "One thing that should be considered," commented Riskey, "is that some of these fraternities have never won a single trophy." The object of the whole intramurals system is to stimulate as many individuals as possible to participate in the sports program. This new innovation can go a long way in that direction. Golfers Led By Sehubeek By TOM BEIERLE Versatility might well be John Schubeck's middle name, He is known to most as one of the outstandnig sophomores on the current Michigan golf squad. Ac- cording to Coach Bert Katen- meyer Schubeck is "potentially a very fine golfer." Low Medalist This conservative comment is! no doubt a result of Schubeck's showing in the past two weeks. In the Purdue-OSU triangular meet held in Columbus, he was low med- alist for the day. Three days later at Michigan State, Schubeck had a nine hole round of one under par, but was unable to shoot consistently, and wound up three over par for the eighteen. Bad Luck Streak In the recent Northwestern meet, Schubeck had another streak of bad luck as he three-putted the last green to lose his match by one stroke. Schubeck's greatest problem is not in improving his outlook or Cheerleading tryouts will be held beginning at 4 o'clock in the gymnastics room of the I-M building.

His difficulties are hard to put a fin- ger on-he just seems to get in trouble and has a hard time get- ting out. Staff Announcer His interests in sports also run in the non-competitive direction. He is a staff announcer for the University broadcasting service, and his infamy in this field is not- ed most by an incident which oc- curred during the Wisconsin bas- ketball game this past season. He gave the lineups over the loudspeaker and introduced the Star Spangled Banner, per usual. Unknown to him the Wolverine cage squad was making its en- trance at the same time, so in true college spirit, the Wolverine Band struck up "The Victors." As a freshman, Schubeck show- ed that he was a top prospect for varsity competition, winning both the match play tournament for all freshmen hopefuls and the annual fall tournament held between prospective freshmen and the cur- rent varsity squad.

I' k i (This is the third and final of a se- ries on the prospects of the Big Ten track teams. Today's article concerns the also-rans.) By AL WINKLESTEIN With the exception of a few in- dividual stars, the second five teams in the conference, Wiscon- sin, Ohio State, Northwestern, Minnesota and Purdue, do not ap- pear to be any great threat for the Big Ten track honors in the coming outdoor season. Wisconsin, Ohio State and Northwestern all have some out- standing performers, who should rate near the top in their special- ties. However, the teams do not have enough team depth to finish high in the final standings. Min- STORE HOURS DAI LY 9 TO 5:30 nesota and Purdue showed nothing at all in the winter season. Wisconsin will look for most of its scoring from its middle distant runners. Jack Mansfield appears to be the best Badger prospect, who finished third in the quarter mile in the Big Ten indoor meet. Sultze Additional Power Gene Sultze, a steady performer, should give the Badgers additional power in the middle distant races. Jon Dalton rates as a leading con- tender for the outdoor two mile ti- tle on the basis of his second place indoor finish. The Buckeyes have two good runners in the mile, Lloyd Bar- tells and Bob Coldern. Coldern was not in top shape for the in- door season, due to a leg injury. Northwestern is expecting an outstanding performancetfr om Jim Golliday in the 100 yd dash. Golliday, who was ineligible for the indoor competition, holds the 1952 NCAA championship at that dis- tant. Northwestern does not appear to be a threat in the other events. Their rather meager strength was seriously depleted both by gradu- ation and ineligibility. The last two teams in the con- ference are negligible. In the in- door meet, Minnesota and Purdue scored exactly one point apiece, and are not expected to do much better outside.
