"That's what my high school coach used to tell me and that is the way I feel. "The person who works harder than the other will do better," continued Sloan. He practices be- tween two and three hours every night and thinks it is essential to keep him in shape. Started at Niie -Born in Montreal, Sloan began running when he was nine years old in grade school track events. In high school he was an all- around athlete, winning four let- ters in track, four in swimming, three in basketball and two in football. Sloan said that one of his great- est thrills came when he won his high school's all-around athlete trophy. He was only 16 at the .time and the first junior athlete to win the trophy. When asked why he chose to come to Michigan, Sloan, a junior and a member of Lambda Chi Alpha, said that two fellow mem- bers of the Montreal Track Club had gone to Michigan ahead of him and done very well in track. He said that this had quite a bit to do with his decision to come here. One of his two friends was Jack Carroll, '54, who helped set a world record in the distance med- ley relay while running for Michi- gan. Ran In Empire Games Another experience Sloan re- called was when he ran in the British Empire Games, his team placing a close second behind Eng- land's team in the mile relay. At Michigan, Sloan has been on the track team all three years, concentrating mainly on the 440 and mile relay. Sloan has had bad luck this sea- son. He broke his foot early in the year and did not see much action during the indoor season. Almost a month ago he pulled a -Daily-John Hirtzel NOT TOO WORRIED-The worried look on tennis Coach Bill Murphy's face would appear to be misleading, as stars Dick Potter (left and Barry MacKay, are expected to lead the netters to their second straight Big Ten title.

This summer he plans to try for the Canadian Olympic team, hop- ing to qualify for the 220 and 440.

Iowa trailed with nine, followed by Michigan State with seven and Ohio State and Northwestern with six apiece. ,One Event Decided One event was decided -the discus - and it was won by Min- nesota's Byrl Thompson, who heaved the plate 160'3". Neither Ken Bottoms nor Dale Eldred, Michigan's two entries, managed to finish in the top five, a neces- sary feat in order to score. In addition to the discus finals, qualifying competition was held in seven events and these seven plus six others which require no prelims will comprise today's ac- tion. Thus things for the Wolverines look much brighter than when the reigning Conference monarchs left Ann Arbor Thursday. The reason: in four of the six events for which no preliminary action is held, Michigan figures quite strongly. These four are the two mile, shot put, high jump and pole vault, and, barring physical ailments or superhuman efforts by the other entries in the events, firsts beckon to the Maize and Blue in every one, with additional places a pos- sibility in each. Highlighting yesterday's pagean- try was an outstanlding perform- ance by Indiana's great sophomore broad-jumper, Greg Bell. He sailed 25'114", the best ef- fort of the season in the world thus far. His teammate, Brealon Donaldson, executed the next best jump, 23'4". Hendricks in Three Events Michigan's Tommy Hendricks qualified in this event and ex- perienced an extremely busy day, also placing in the 220-yd. low hurdles and the unfamiliar 120- yd. highs. Bob Rudesill also qualified in the low hurdles, and perhaps be- cause of this was not entered in the 440, in which Laird Sloan, fighting against a conditioning lag, was able to remain for today's finale. Only Dick Flodin among the Wolverines turned in a best per- formance, topping the 220 field with a :22.0 clocking. Other Michigan qualifiers in- clude Jimmy Pace in the 100 and Pete Gray, Robin Varian and Ralph Gray in the 880. Today will find, in addition to the qualifiers, Eeles Landstrom and Bob Appleman in the pole vault; Mark Booth, Brendan O'Reilly, Ron Kramer and Stan Menees in the high jump; Dave Owen and Kramer in the shot put; Ron Wallingfiord and Helmar Dollwet in the mile; and Wallingford and Geert Keilstrup in the two mile. DICK FLODIN JOHN SCHUBECK . leads 220 qualifiers ... cards 150 Special To The Daily EVANSTON, ILL. -yAfter 36 holes of action in the Big Ten meet, Michigan's golf team is in a third place tie with MSU behind Purdue and Ohio State. The Wolverines have taken 759 strokes to trail the Boilermakers by 16. The low man for Michigan yes- terday was Captain Bob McMas- ters who shot a 72-77-149. He was closely followed by John Schubeck who had 74-76-150. Medalist Honors Medalist honors for the day went to deefnding NCAA cham- pion Joe Campbell of Purdue. Af- ter shooting a 71 in the morning he got a 72 to give him a 36 hole total of 143. He was followed by Northwest- ern's Rudy Boyd at 144 and Ohio's Rick Jones at 145. At the end of 18 holes McMas- ters was in a fourth place tie in 'M' PITCHING FALTERS: Spartans Blast Diarnondmen, 10-4 Golfers Tie for Third, Still Cling to Title Hopes the race for individual honors, but some poor short putting early in the afternoon hurt his score for the second 18. Schubeck's afternoon round would have been much better if it had not been for four penalty strokes. On the sixth hole he had to take a two stroke penalty when he drove his tee shot out of bounds. Bad Luck On the fourteenth a bit of bad luck cost him two more. His ball somehow got lodged in the open root of a tree in the rough. He had to declare the ball unplayable, this incurring another two stroke penalty. The players feel that Michigan actually has a better chance to take the team title than the standings at the end of the first day of action might indicate. In the first place, 16 strokes is not too great a deflict to overcome in 36 holes of golf. For instance, at the end -of 18 holes yesterday Michigan was lead- ing the pack and was five strokes ahead of Purdue. However, in the afternoon the Boilermakers picked up 21 strokes in 18 holes to take over the lead. OSU Short A Man Also, Ohio State, currently in second spot, is playing with only five men. Their sixth player, Mel Woefling was stricken with appen- dicitis yesterday and was operated on at 5:00. This means that none of their players can afford to slack off since the team scores consist of the five top individual scores. Purdue is in a similar situation. One of their players, Ed McCal- lum, soared all the way to 165, thus virtually eliminating himself.

Three Wolverine hurlers com- bined to give up a .total of 14 hits, five of them went for extra bases and 11 bases on balls. Hurler Ed Hobaugh went the distance for the Spartans while allowing nine hits and five walks. Play MSU Today Today Michigan will be seeking revenge against MSU in a double header at Ferry Field starting at 1:30. Yesterday's loss put the Wol- verines virtually out of the run- ning for second place in the Big Ten race. Until the fifth inning Bill Thurston, starting pitcher ap- peared to be doing rather well, but in the fifth after he gave up three sucessive singles and one run Coach Fisher replaced him with Dick Peterjohn. Peterjohn gave up three sucessive balls to Roscoe Davis and then Fisher pul- led him out for Glenn Girardin. Girardin issued the fourth ball to put Davis on base to load the sacks. He proceeded to get out of the inning, but not until three more runs had scored. This fifth inning was the turn- ing point that really iced the game for the Spartans. M i c h i g a n's biggest scoring threat came in the sixth inning when the Wolverines bunehed up three htis to score two runs. Howie Tommelein flied to center to open the stanza, Ken Tippery singled and Steve Boros grounded to the shortstop to force Tippery.

Captain Hobaugh walked to start the in- ning and after Frank Palamara flied out to left, football All-Am- erican Earl Morrall drilled a single through the infield setting the stage for Sack's homer. 16 Rurmers Stranded The fact that Michigan State left 16 runners stranded on the base paths is little short of re- markable. Captain shortstop Moby Bene- dict left the game in the seventh inning and was replaced at short by Boros. Frank Ronan came in to take over third base. During batting practice on Thursday Ben- edict sprained an already injured elbow. The elbow began to really bother him during the game. It is questionable as to whether he'll be playing in today's contests, which will be the last of his col- lege career. Three Wolverines got two hits, Tommelein, Sigman, and Boros. Both of Boros' hits were good for extra bases. In the second inning he hit a double and in the fourth he tripled to deep center field.

"We have received the informa- tion. Beyond that there is no comment," said Bernie Hammer- beck, assistant to Commissioner Victor O. Schmidt. The charges, sent the conference by J. Miller Leavy, a UCLA alum- nus, claims a Trojan booster group paid out $71,235 to more than 60 athletes over a two-year period in excess of the conference athletic code. Previously, Schmidt said that if the accusations can be substainti- ated, a special meeting of the con- ference might be called to take action. Hammerbeck, a deputy district attorney of Los Angeles County, said he could not estimate how long it would take to probe the case, ,, :1 "II I _.
