SATURDAY, APRIL 20,1957 THE MICHIGAN DAILY FAGS TIME SATURDAY, APRIL 20, i957 THE MICHiGAN DAILY PAGR TWXKU i ii14Jlff in{.t iVi/iY w .4 Baseball Squad Opens Aainst lrish Today .. .. . . Home Slate Begins. 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.

Sport Shorts 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. Queens roposal The latest move in New York's bid to keep the Dodgers from BrownlsGe 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. shifting to Los Angeles was the 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. Major League StandigU NATIONAL LEAGUE Trackmen 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." By The Associated Press 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. * * 4 - Purdue Wins LAFAYETTE, Ind-Purdue kept its perfect record in three pre- SPORTS Night Editor AL WINKELSTEIN Big Ten conference baseball games Friday with a 6-3 triumph over Butler.

Triandos Injured BALTIMORE - Catcher Gus Triandos, who knocked in six runs in the first three games, will be lost to the Baltimore Orioles for an indefinite period with a back injury. Club officials said Triandos has a "bruise and strain in the left lumbar kidney region" as the re- sult of a collision with the Wash- ington Senators' Herb Plew, at' home plate in Washington Thurs- day night.
