Track Team Runs Well in Ohio Relays

<

By AL JONES
Four Michigan pitchers took a
try on the mound yesterday after-
noon, but only one was successful.
By the time the fourth got there
Western Michigan had hammered
the Wolverines for 12 hits and a
7-1 victory at Ferry Field to shat-
ter the nine-game 'M' winning
streak.
The first faltering 'M' hurler
was Dean Finkbeiner. He gave up
three hits in three innings, but
left. the game unscored upon
thanks to some sharp fielding by
his teammates.
Poloskey Hit Hard
Finkbeiner's replacement, Don
Poloskey, was not so fortunate. In
both the fourth and fifth innings
he gave up twohits and a run.
The first Bronco run came when
first baseman Bob Mason led off
the fourth with a double to left
field, moved to third when Fred
Messner grounded out, and scored
on a wild pitch by Poloskey.
In the fifth, Western padded
their lead as leftfielder Terry
Mack started the inning with a
single. Mack was sacrificed to
second by Len Grabowski, a'tWJ
scored on a'single by Jim Shedd.
Broncos Like Girardin
The third Michigan hurler met
the worst -fate of all. Glen Girar-
din was tagged for four hits and,
five runs in a wild Bronco scoring
spree in the sixth inning.
Ken Hamlin, the shortstop, led
off with a single, waited whileI

Craig Morris flied out, and then
moved to second when Girardin
issued Wurster a walk.
After the Bronco pitcher Fran
Kruszka flied out, Mack slapped
another of his singles into centerl
field to drive in Hamlin and move
Wurster to third.
Shedd Blasts Homer
Then Shedd stepped to the plate
to supplement his previous RBI
with a three-run home run over
the left-field fence. This ended the
Bronco scoring, as Girardin issued
only one other hit in the next in-
ning, and Jim Clark took over in
the eighth and pitched the only
no-hit ball of the day for the final
two innings.
While the Western team was
able to collect seven runs off
twelve hits, the Wolverines scored
only once while blasting out eleven
hits.
The one Michigan run came in
the fifth inning when Fox came to
bat with two out and knocked a.
single into left field, which Mack
booted into foul territory, allow-
ing Fox to reach second.
Tippery Drives In Run
Tippery followed with another
single to score Fox, but was
stranded when Boros flied out.
Michigan's other hits went for
naught, as at least one Wolverine
was left on base in all but two
innings.
Although allowing ten hits, the
Bronco pitcher, Kruszka, scattered
the markers effectively, and was

only in serious trouble a few times.
He left the game in the eighth
inning, when he walked and was
hit with a throw from Boros in-
tended for first base.
Jack R; mohr replaced Kruszka
and effectively quelled the Wol-
verines' attempted surge in the
eighth and ninth frames.
Wolverine coach Ray Fisher's
thoughts on. the game were sum-
med up by the statement, "I told
you so!" He has been afraid all
season long that his pitching staff
was too weak to face a good team.

"Last Saturday's Ohio Relays
were just a warm-up for this
week's meet," were the words of
Track Coach Don Canham.

The Big Ten put Ohio State on

1956 for a period of one year.
The action was taken then on
grounds of "irregularities in the
program of job assistance of Ohio
State athletes" and "personal fi-
nancial assistance provided Ohio
State football players by Coach
Woody Hayes."

Delta Upsilon's Dave Cobb came
through again yesterday in I-M
softball as the DU's beat Theta Xi,
8-2.
Cobb, who Is becoming the
Whitey Ford of I-M Softball, mix-
ed blazing fast balls with some
change of pace pitches to strike
out twelve men and give up only
two hits i-- six innings of play.
Nelson Sherburne opened the
DU, assault with a two run homer
to left center in the third. In the
fourth, the DU's put together
seven hits for six runs to ice the
victory.
Delta Tau Delta Triumphs
Delta Tau Delta's Cal Haywood
also repeated his great winning
performance of last week, by
twirling his second successive
three hitter, this time over Phi
Kappa Psi, 11-0.
Haywood's best pitch is a rise
ball which takes off as it ap-
proaches the plate causing the
batters to swing underneath it.
In another game, pitching
again proved to be the big factor

for the winners. This was apparent
when Sigma Nu edged out Theta
Delta Chi, 8-6. Duane Schultz gave
up only one bunt single in the
win, but was nicked for six runs,
all on walks and errors.
George Nadell gave Sigma Nu
their margin of victory on a two-
run homer in the second inning
to deepest right field.
Sammies Power to Win
Fred Gordon pitched Sigma
Alpha Mu into the victory column
by spinning a one hitter as the
Sammies blasted Alpha Epsilon
Pi, 11-3.
Mark Owens supplied the power
for the win by blasting a triple
and a two run homer to dead cen-
ter field, to knock in four of their
runs.
In other games Zeta Psi out-
slugged Alpha Sigma Phi, 8-5; Phi
Epsilon Pi blasted Chi Psi, 15-9;
Sigma Phi pummeled Triangle, 12-
5; Lambda Chi Alpha bested Delta
Sigma Phi, 13-5; Phi Kappa Sigma
belted out Delta Kappa Epsilon,
13-5; and Kappa Sigma held Sig-
ma Chi to a 4-4 tie.

"What's it like to be
A RESEARCH ENGINEER
AT IBMV?"
Two years ago, college senior Robert Thorpe asked himself this gqesfion
as he worked toward his E.E. at the University of Toledo. Today, an
Associate Engineer in the Applied Logic Group of IBM Research, Bob
reviews his experiences and gives some pointers that may be helpful to
you in taking the first, most important step in your career.

"I joined IBM for two clear-cut rea-
sons," recalls Bob. "First, the tre-
mendous company growth obviously
offered every chance for advance-
ment. Second, the work area was
exactly what I was looking for-
transistors and their application to
computer systems."
Bob entered IBM's voluntary
training program in June, 1955, where
he studied the entire organization,
its divisions and diversified products.
He received technical training in com-
puter logic, programming, and com-
ponents such as transistors, cores and
tapes. By September, half his day was
being devoted to an actual project;
by the following March, he was on
this project full time. "Our job was

ment of a system containing both
analog and digital components. Bob
still works on this project--toward a
completion date of April, 1957.
Shortly after this program started,
Bob joined the Applied Logic Group.

the administrative side, or to Staff
Engineer, the technical side of Re-
search. "Either way, I'm sure I'I get
ahead," Bob feels. "Electronics re-
search is really on the move at IBM.
We have about 600 people at Pough-
keepsie now, as against 56 in 1950.
We'll need some 1,700 before 1960 to
help staff a new research laboratory
at Yorktown Heights, Westchester
County, N. Y."
What does he like best about IBM?
Probably the fact that he's so much
"on his own." "There's no 'over-the-
shoulder' supervision," he says. "You
schedule your own program and cre-
ate your own 'pressure.' And, if you

the morning. (Can't sleep with an alarm clock
ticking all night.)
TUESDAY:
$0.50 - sorority fine for not cleaning my plate at dinner.
(I just couldn't ! Dinner was Ralph.)
$0.50 - sorority fine for dating undesirable boy. (Rod-
erigo is not undesirable ! Some people say he is
"fast" and a "devil" but I say he is just insecure.
Why els'e would he go steady with eight girls?)
$0.26 - pack of Philip Morris. What joy! What zest!
WEDNESDAY:
$557.38 - a motorcycle for Roderigo. (He is giving up all
his other girls for me, but they are so 'widely
scattered that he needs a fast conveyance to go
around and tell them all goodbye.)
$0.26 - pack of Philip Morris. (Have you tried them
yet? If not, you've got a big treat coming. Light
one soon. Light either end.)
THURSDAY:
$0.50 - sorority fine for staying too long in the shower.
(Gee whiz, a girl gets mighty dirty polishing a
motorcycle!)
$0.52 - two packs of Philip Morris - one for Roderigo.
(Dear Roderigo !)
FRIDAY:
$0.26 - pack of Philip Morris - a happy smoke for a
happy day. Yesterday Roderigo broke with the
last of his girls, and today he is mine, all mine !
$8.57 - new dogfish for zoology. (I was dissecting a
dogfish in zoology when I happened to look out the
window and see Roderigo riding by with Mary
Ann Beasley on his buddy seat. I got so upset I
threw the dogfish at them.)
SATURDAY:
$2.59 - a carton of Philip Morris, one pack for me, the
rest for Roderigo. (I was foolish to be angry about
Mary Ann. Roderigo explained that she meant

Here, he was concerned with research
in new areas of computer technology
-for example, cryogenics and high-
speed memories. Bob studies systems
which operate on "real time," and
his immediate problem is to analyze
and synthesize closed-loop sample
data systems for the control of com-
plex data processing.
Asked what his most interesting
assignment was, Bob replied, "My

Bob works ,in a small group. "Our
team consists of three E.E.'s and a
