With Doubleheader
Poloskey, Girardin
Herrnstein Selected
By DALE CANTOR
Assume Mound Duties;
as First Relief Hurler
Michigan's baseball team, sty-
mied once by the weather man
in its effort to open the 1957 home
season, will try again this after-
noon against Notre Dame in a
double-header at Ferry Field be-
ginning at 1:30 p.m.
The Wolverines were scheduled
to play Central Michigan Wednes-
day afternoon, but the game was
called because of rain.
The poor weather has hurt the
Wolverines considerably, especial-
ly the pitching staff which has
had far too little outdoor work.
Last year,, Michigan won one
and lost one to the Irish.
Probable Pitchers
Coach Ray Fisher's probable
starting pitchers will be right-
hander Don Poloskey and left-
hader Glenn Girardin.
Poloskey and Girardin also
shared the hurling duties against
Western Michigan. The Wolver-
ines pounded a 10-3 victory over
the Broncos. Poloskey was charged
with Western's first two runs -
two bases on balls which he is-
sued in the fourth eventually
crossed the plate.
Girardin, who gave up only one
hit over the final five innings,
was plagued by wildness in spots,
walking three.
John Herrnstein and Jim Clark
will get first call as relief pitchers
for the Maize and Blue.
Notre Dame probably will start
their veteran righthander, Tom,
' Bujnowski, who pitched both
games against Michigan last year,
losing a 5-2 contest and winning,
6-5, in the second encounter.
Veteran Irish Squad
Notre Dame Coach Jack Kline
has a returning contingent of 11
letter winners, including five reg-
lars, and the top four pitchers
from last year's squad which was
invited to the NCAA tourney.
Heading the list of returnees is
Elmer K o h o r s t, All-American
catcher. Kohorst, a 6'2" senior
and co-captain of this year's
squad, led the Irish in home runs,
runs batted in, and batting last
year. He bit .329, had 21 runs
batted in, and clubbed three home
runs.
The main problem facing Kline
is depth in the pitching corps and
the outfield. The infield is fairly
intact, Ed Hurley, second base,
and Jim Carideo, shortstop, have
held down their respective po-
sitions for the last two years.
Co-Capt. Jim Cusack, first base,
was a .316 slugger as a right-field-
er last year, but was a first base-
man as a sophomore.
Michigan will have its regular
catcher, Gene Snider, behind the
plate again. Al Sigman, Herrn-
stein and Bruce Fox will be pa-
trolling the outfield, while Bob
Sealby, Capt. Ken Tippery, Steve
Boros and Ernie Myers will com-
pose the infield.
Links Open;
New Policyr
Announced
Spring time means time for
golf, and the Michigan golf course
is now open for play.
Although opened back on April
6, few people have taken advan-
tage of the facilities thus far,
mainly because of the disagree-
able weather.
Wolverine Athletic Director H.
0. "Fritz" Crisler has announced
one principal change in the policy
of the course that has taken ef-
fect this spring.
Golfers are now able to sign up
ahead of time for weekend or holi-
day play, either by applying in
person at the course, or by tele-
phone. This procedure is an effort
to cut down on the long waiting
lines that were common on nice
days last year.
This change will also require
that all Saturday, Sunday or hol-
iday play be limited to foursomes
to enable the groups to start at
the times assigned. This will al-
leviate the congestion of the past
at the first tee.
Under this new plan, a player
or group using the course on one
weekend will be able to reserve
a starting time for the following
weekend and thus eliminate the
waiting for an opportunity to get
on the course.
Mims Loses,
Miami Fight
MIAMI BEACH, Fla. - Jimmy
Beecham, an eager youngster
from Miami trying to climb up in
the ring ratings, grabbed himself
a fistful of prestige last night as
he pounded his way to a close
decision over the veteran Holly
Mims of Washington, D.C.
Taking the best shots that Mims
could throw, the 22 - year - old
Beecham scored strongly with
brisk counter punches in a match
so filled with action that the
crowd of 2,069 stood up and
cheered at the end.

NEW PRESIDENT:
Hansen Replaces Knorr
As Detroit Ti ger Head
DETROIT (P)-Harvey R. Han-
sen yesterday was elected presi-
dent of the Detroit Baseball Co.,
succeeding Fred A. Knorr who
was elevated to a new position of
vice chairman of the board of di-
rectors.
The announcement of the front
office change was made after a
meeting of the board of directors.
"Fred Knorr has accomplished
the job of reorganization which
we asked him to undertake last
October," said board chairman
John E. Fetzer, "and now needs
more time to devote to his busi--
ness."
Hansen, 61, was one of the 11
men who joined together in the
syndicate th-t paid a refrd $5 -
500,000 for *he Tigers last sum-
mer. Knorr nominated hin for
the president's post.
Hansen said the entire field op-
eration would remain in the
hands of general manager Spike
Briggs and personnel director
change would mean no alterations
John McHale. The Tigers said the
in club policy.

BROOKLYN (M)-Another ten-
tative proposal to build a new
ballpark in the city for the Brook-
lyn Dodgers - this time in the
borough of Queens - drew a terse
and cool response yesterday from
Dodger president Walter O'Mal-
ley.
"If and when this latest re-
portedpossibility ever achieves
political maturity, I will be pleased
to discuss it in detail," said O'Mal-
ley in a statement issued by the
club.

Garre--t int
NFL Trade
CLEVELAND (4)-Coach Paul
Brown of the Cleveland Browns
started his rebuilding program
Thursday with an eight player
trade with the Green Bay Packers.
Brown figures that the addition
of quarterback Bobby Garrett will
turn out to 'be the key part of
the trade. In addition to Garrett,
the Browns also obtained former
Michigan star, linebacker Roger
Zatkoff.
The Green Bay club obtained
quarterback Babe Parilli and five
other players.dAccording to
Brown, Parilli had been given a
good test last year after Otto Gra-
ham retired, and was disappoint-
ing. The Packers believe that he
will havera better chance with
them of regaining the form he
showed in the first two years as
a pro.
In addition, the Browns alsof
gave up defensive halfback John
Pettibon and Billy Kinard, offen-
sive guard John Macerelli, defen-
sive end Carlton Massey and line-
backer Sam Palumbo.
The deal reversed a 1954 swap
in which Brown sent Garrett, a
former Stanford passing star to
the Packers for Parilli. Garrett
served as understudy to Tobin
Rote in his rookie season, 1954,
before entering the Air Force. He
will be discharged before training
begins this summer.
Brown called Zatkoff, an all-
league selection a "contact-type
pro star." However, the former
Michigan player has informed
Green Bay officials that he plans
to retire.

Queens proposal off-1ah hT '-k
C o m m i s s i o n e r Robert Moses
Thursday to Mayor Rooeri wa -
per.
Moses suggested building a 10
million dollar municipal stadium,
with a plastic covering dome, and
seating 50,000, on a city-owned
78-acre plot at Flushing Meadows.
This is the site of the 1939 World's
Fair,. some 12 miles from mid-
town Manhattan. The property
now is used for commuter park-
ing. There would be room to park
12,000 cars plus the stadium.
Dodgers Assured Park
Last Feb. 11, O'Malley said that
unless the Dodgers were assured
of a new park within six months,
he would transfer the club to Los
Angeles.
Los Angeles, eager to lure the
Dodgers westward, has offered a
several hundred acre tract in the
Chavez Ravine area, alsopark
commission property, near down-
town Los Angeles. Last February
the Dodgers purchased the Los
Angeles franchise of the Pacific
Coast League.

Face Tough
Competition
Travel to Ohio Relays
For Outdoor Opener
By STEVE SALZMAN
Coach Don Canham will take
a full squad of cindermen to the
Ohio Relays today to open the
regular outdoor season.
Some of the other teams which
are entered besides Michigan are
the strong squads of Notre Dame,
Pittsburgh, Ohio State, Michigan
State, and the Indoor champions
Indiana.
Leading the team, which has
taken the outdoor championship
the past two years running, will
be Captain Dave Owen. Owen,
who is approaching the sixty foot
mark in the shot put, is heavily
favored to take. this event.
O'Reilly Favored
Another event in which Michi-
gan is favored to take is the high
jump. Perennial champ, Brendan
O'Reilly will be soaring through
the air in an attempt to clear six
feet seven inches.
Although he is favored, O'Reilly
will face some stiff competition
from Al Urbanckas, University of
Illinois high jumper. Urbanckas
has been improving throughout
the indoor season, and in Assis-
tant Coach Elmer Swanson's
words, "he could make it tough for
O'Reilly."
The speedy little middle dis-
tance runner from MSU, Dave
Lean, will be heading the field in
the quarter and half mile runs
Lean was successful throughout
the entire indoor season, and he
is probably the best middle dis-
tance runner in the Big Ten.
Lean will be very valuable for
their relay team, since his blazing
speed will probably catch all op-
ponents in his position as anchor
man.
Green to Run Mile
In another tough event, the one
mile run, Jack Green and Charles
Morton will be entered for Michi-
gan. They will receive staunch
competition from University of
Illinois miler Bob Dintelmann.
Dintelmann is considered, along
with Selwyn Jones from MSU, to
be the top miler in the Big Ten.
The broad jump has been vir-
tually conceded to Olympic star
Greg Bell of Indiana. Bell has
jumped 24 feet 4 inches already
this season and can even go fur-
ther if the conditions are right.
Rainy weather, during the past
week has been a great hinderance
to the team. Coaches Swanson
and Canham have not been over
anxious to let their sprinters and
middle distance runners practice
outdoors. Since there is a great
difference in the breathing of an
athlete outdoors from his breath-
ing indoors, this handicaps the
team greatly.
However, the Wolverines have
had a southern trip this spring,
while few of the other teams
have. This will more than make
up for the lack of outdoor prac-
tice here in Ann Arbor, and should
give the Michigan team a favor-
ites role in today's meet.
SPRING FOOTBALL DRILLS:
Julian, Myers Vie for Halfback Slot
By BOB ROMANOFF
Wally Weber, Michigan's fresh-!
man football coach, has the diffi-
cult task of serving as the first
man to train the future gridiron
stars for the Wolverines.
For this reason it is only natu-
ral that Weber is the man who
would know most about the new
players trying to earn varsity posi-
tions in spring practice.
However, Weber can only judge
on the basis of the showing made
in last fall's workouts, and admits
that it is still too early to make
any final appraisal of the players
as varsity talent. Many obeserva-
tions can be made on Michigan's
future prospects already, even
though they have had only limited
experience working in the spring
drills.
Barr's Replacement
The most critical problem in the
backfield is finding a replacement
for Terry Barr at the high halfback
slot. In addition to Barr, the Wol-
verines also lost their second string
halfback, Ed Shannon, via gradu-
ation.
The most promising newcomers
at this spot appear to be Fred
Julian, and Brad Myers, both of
whom earned Michigan all-state
honors in high school. Another top
candidate is Rudd Van Tyne, who
earned all-state honors in Mis-
souri.
Weber considered Van Tyne to
be one of the top four players on
the freshman squad, but because
of recent surgery on an old shoul-
der injury, he will miss spring
practice.
The new men who will try to
oust .im Pae and1 Bob Ptaee
John Herrnstein, who Weber
considers to be the best fullback
in the Big Ten, may face competi-
tion for his job from Gerald Smith
who appears to be the best of the
freshmen trying out for the posi-
tion.
Quarterback Jim Van Pelt will
have competition for the spot from
Stan Noskin, who hails from Van
Pelt's home town, Evanston, Ill.
Dave Brown and Jim McPherron
are the other two prospects. Of the
three newcomers, Noskin seems to
be the best passer.
Lineman Prospects
On the line, the biggest problem
which faces Bennie Oosterbaan is
to find replacements for his great
ends, Ron Kramer and Tom
Maentz. Charles Teuschner, who
Weber said was also one of the
top players on the freshman squad,
is in the running for one of the
jobs.
Teuschner, who was mainly in-
terested in basketball and track
when he came up here, has a good
pair of hands and is a very capable
punter. Dale Keller is another good
prospect from the Freshmen ranks.
The new men trying out for
guards are Fred Olm, who is also
a top wrestling prospect. Michael
Fillichio and Tom DeMassa are
also men to watch.
The newcomers also include
some bright prospects at tackle,
where Oosterbaan is faced with the
problem of finding a right tackle
to replace Al Sigman. All-stater
George Genyk and Ermin Crown-
ley will try to give Oosterbaan the
help he needs.
Another tackle prospect, Wilfred
Grein, 225 lbs., will not see action
this spring because of an ankle
injury which he sustained while
playing intramural basketball.
Dupay at Center
Trying to replace lettermen Gene
Snider and Ray Wine at the center
position are Michael Dupay and
Bob Dutnell. Dupay, who was or-
iginally a fullback in high school
was shifted to center last fall by
Weber. He still has work left to
do in such phases as centering,
before he can reach his full poten-
tial.
Weber said that last year's
freshman squad was an average
one and that the coaches would
be happy if just twenty-five per
cent of the squad earned letters
by the time they graduate.
At the close of the interview
Weber said, "Until anyone of the
boys mentioned carries the ball,
makes his first tackle or blocks his
first man in a Western Conference
game, no one can make a final
appraisal of his chances of playing
on the team."

Richards "Finds"
BALTIMORE -- Paul Richards
splurged on five bonus boys two
years ago when he became man-
ager of the Baltimore Orioles. Soon
only one will be left.
Richards announced Thursday
that he will farm out Wayne Cau-
sey and Bob Nelson in June when
their two-year mandatory stay in
the majors expires.
Richards authorized an estimat-
ed total expenditure of $160,000 in
bonuses for Causey, Nelson, Bruce
Swango, Jim Pyburn and Tom
Gastall in 1955.
Swango, a pitcher from Okla-
homa, was released without even
a trial in a major league game.
The New York Yankees later sent
him to the minors and also re-
leased him.
Gastall was killed flying an air-
plane at the end of last season.
Richards feels now that he "pro-
bably" will keep Pyburn because
of his versatility.
