I-M SPORTLIGHT .. by Chuck Kozofl 4 HJISTORY threatens to repeat itself as I-M competitions draw to a close. Four teams now in first place in their leagues, Sigma Phi Epsi- lon in the social fraternities, Gomberg in the residence halls, Seldom Seen Kids in independent play and Nu Sigma Nu of the professional fraternities, took the 1957 titles in their division. Hoping to spoil a repeat performance by the Sig Eps is Phi Delta * Theta which is narrowing the gap. The Phi Delts trail 1344 points to the leader's 1383 with tennis, golf, horseshoes, 'A' and 'B' softball is yet to be decided. Putting the closing touches on two key I-M sports is the an- nouncemerit of the social fraternity all-star teams in touch football and basketball. End slots went to Sig Lps Larry Lavercombe and Phi Gamma Delta's John Burt with the center position awarded to Delta Tau Delta's John Hoos. In the backfield are Phi Delt's Jack Lewis, 1958-59 Michigan basketball captain, Fram LeMire of Lambda Chi, Jack Roth < of Pi Lambda Phi and John Locker of Phi Kappa Sigma. Named to the basketball squad were Sigma Chi's Gordy Mor- row, who paced his team to the I-M title, Delta Tau Delta's Tom Jones, Sigma Nu's John Larson, Sigma Phi's Chuck Turner and Chi Psi's Dick Spindle. In the residence hall league Gomberg's hopes of winning their sixth consecutive championship hang in the balance with a deter- mined Cooley organization out to down the Big Red. With three resi- dence sports contests to be completed Gomberg holds a twenty-six point edge over the 'East Quad group, 1378 to 1352. Adding a note of color to the tight residence hall race are the se- lections for all-star teams by the I-M staff. Gomberg's lai'geline has two representatives in Center Bill Mc- Coll and End Ray Chapman with Cooley's Kim Greene taking pos- session of the other end spot. Barry Marshall of Taylor and Mike West of Strauss anchor the I-M star backfield with Huber's Steve Jor- don and Reeves' Rich Robins in two other ball control positions. Cooley's second place basketball team placed two men, Art Gnew- uch and Greene, who was named to his second all-star team. Reid Bushong, whose basket in an overtime period gave Van Tyne the title, Michigan's Tom Rutila and Green's Dan Bennett complete the quintet. 'at it Agin . The Seldom Seen Kids' power-packed combination is well on its way to a third year of domination in the independent circuit with Evans Scholars and 1207 following at a distance. The Kids have al- ready totaled '758 points to the Scholars' 567 and 1207's 524. League dominance by these three teams is shown in the selection of the all-star contingents with the Kids placing three of their backs, Moby Benedict, Jack Watson and, Bill Steinmeyer in \the lineup. The Scholars' took control of two-thirds of the line with Val Spangler and Ralph Butz with Jack McKenzie of Mickey Mouse in the other spot. Don Muir from 1207 landed the other backfield position. Reappearing on the basketball court is Watson for the Kids along with McKenzie who played for the Sweepers during the winter. The Scholars' tall Dick Gates plus football star Gary Prahst with the Buckeyes and Dale Keller of the Seven Dwarfs round out the rest of the lineup. Looking for another' I-M trophy for their mantle, Nu -Sigma Nu has pushed to a solid lead in the professional fraternity division. Lead- ing Psi Omega 750 to 653, they appear on the way to a repeat of their 1957 win. Turkey's 506 point total in the international set dominates the league. Spaced below are India, 404, and South America, 306, as they put the finishing touches on their basketball league and warm up for the May 15th swimming meet. Net Squad Encounters Strong Foe Illinois Favored In Big Ten Race By BOB ROMANOFF Michigan's tennis team plays host today at 2:30 p.m. to a strong contingent from Illinois who are expected to hand the Wolverines their second stiaight defeat. The Illini are favored along with Iowa to wrest the Big Ten Cham- pionship away from Michigan. Illinois defeated Iowa last week by a convincing 6-3 score. Michi- gan mentor Bill Murphy goes along with the others in picking Illinois. Better Than Notre Dame Murphy says of the Illini, "They are the best team including Notre Dame that we will meet this year." The Irish ended Michigan's 47 dual meet win streak last Monday. The reason for all this praise being showered on Illinois is the fact that Coach Howard Braun has four of his five top lettermen returning from last year. These include Captain Carl Noble who is playing in the num- ber -one slot for the third consecu- tive season, junior Al Holtmann who has lost only one dual meet in an Illinois uniform, and that was last year to Michigan's Mark Jaffe. Discharged from Service Also returning are last year's fourth and fifth men, George Gil- more and Bob Breckenridge. The Illini are further strengthened by the return of Roger Bielefeld from the service. He was Captain-elect of the 1956 team. The Wolverines will use basically the same lineup they used against Notre Dame.hThe lineup was Jon Erickson,. John Harris, Bob Sas- sone, George Korol, Frank Fulton and Bill Vogt. Doubles-Team Indefinite The doubles teams, except for the first one, for Michigan usually aren't definite until the time of the meet. The, first team is composed of Erickson and Harris. From past indications the second team should be Fulton and John Wiley with Korol and Vogt playing third doubles. Tomorrow Michigan should have an easier time of it when they play host to Wisconsin. The meet will be held at the same time as today's meet.

Gonzales added another victory to his string as he beat Hoad in a rugged match 14-12, 4-6, 10-8. Hoad teamed with Tony Trabert to defeat Gonzales and Pancho Segura in the doubles set by the score of 7-5. LEADS IN SERIES, 40-32: Gonzales ToPS Hoad in Three Sets Currently sharing first place with Michigan State, the Univer- sity of Michigan baseball team journeyed to Madison, Wisconsin, for today's game with the Badg- ers, and will head for Northwest- ern tomorrow to play a double- header with last year's defending champions.' Michigan's title hopes may be greatly enhanced by winning these crucial games, depending on how Michigan State fares against Northwestern and Wisconsin, whom they also play this weekend. Weak Opponents Wisconsin is mired in ninth spot in the standings with a 2-4 record, and Northwestern isn't much bet- ter off as they hold down eighth position with a 2-3 showing. In the game against the Badgers this afternoon, Coach Ray Fisher expects to start left-hander John Herrnstein and hopes that catcher Jim Dickey, who leads the Big Ten in RBI's with nine, can continue his sensational .476 batting pace. Dickey is also tied with several others for the home run leader- ship with two. Pitcher Herrnstein will be after his second conference victory and will try to increase hisvtotal of 17 strikeouts which currently ties him with Michigan State's Ron Per- ranoski for league leadership. Face Badger Ace Facing Herrnstein will probably be the ace righthander of the Badger staff, George Schmidt, who holds a 1-0 conference record, and a 3.10 ERA. Wisconsin's left field- er, Ron Nieman, is third in RBI's with seven and is hitting the ball at a .429 clip. Catcher Ed Cannon leads the Badgers in hitting with a season average of .375 and is batting .412 in Big Ten competi- tion. Northwestern's main trouble this year has stemmed from poor hit- ting and even worse fielding, as the Woldcats are last in the Big Ten in both departments. Michigan's team batting average is .286 contrasted to Northwest- Michigan Seeks To Break First-Place Tie with MSU If Il Big Ten Leaders Batting Leaders AB RIH Foreman, Ind. 25 5 14 Lawerence, Ind. 26 4 13 Dickey, MICH. 21 5 10 McCartan, Minin. 14 3 7 Look, MSU 21 9 10 Fleser, MSU 23 3 10 Nieman, Wi&. 21 4 9 Cannon, Wis. 17 2 7 Lindblom, Minn. 18 4 7 Brown, MICH. 19 5 7 Roman, MICH. 22 7 8 RBI 1 7 9 4 7 7 2 5 3 3 .Pct. .560 .500 .476 .500 .476 A435 .429 .412 .389 .368 .364 ern's'paltry .188, and the Wolver- ines are fourth in the league in team fielding.

It was his 40th victory, against 32 for the Australian champion, who led the series during the early stages of the tour. The match was steady and hard- fought from the beginning, with both players relying more on good backcourt playing than their more spectacular service aces and over- heads. Both came to net quite often, and fast crosscourt volleys accounted for most of the winning shots. Long Set The long first set went 25 games without a service break, alternat- ing between very short games and deuced ones which saw the ad- vantage points switching back and forth before they finally went to the server. Eventually Pancho came through to take two love games and the set. Hoad, in turn, dominated the second set, although Pancho be- gan at this point to bring in his publicized "big" serve to ace out winners. But Lew never let him- self get too far behind after breaking through in the fifth game, which he came up to win after watching two aces go by him. The third set was a series of Varsity Plays. Tiddlywinks LONDON (/P) - Varsity teams from Oxford and Cambridge uni- versities clash today in what is billed as the game of the century to introduce a new collegiate sport-tiddlywinks. It's a pastime in which the ob- ject is to snap small disks into a little cup. You hold one disk be- tween your thumb and forefinger, press it against the edge of an- other disk . . . and snap. The Oxford and Cambridge teams take it all seriously. They insist the game deserves a place on the Olympic games program. short, fast games, most of which the server took with a minimum loss of points. The boys were both tiring at this point, and they didn't run for the crosscourt and passing shots the way they had at the beginning. They brought out hard services and fIlashy net play to Golf Coach Bert Katzenmey- er requests- that any students wishing to caddy at tomorrow morning's Michigan - 0 h i o State-Purdue golf meet report to the Michigan Course club- house at 7 a.m tomorrow. About 25 caddies are needed. hurry it through, and Gonzales eventually took Hoad's serve in the final game for the match. In the preceding match, Tony Trabert, Cincinnati boy turned Californian, played to a 9-9 draw with Pancho Segura, who leads that series 29-25. The doubles match at the end saw the more refreshed team of Trabert and Hoad beat the two Panchos 7-5. It got off to a.clown- ing start as Gonzales mimicking his partner's two-handed back- hand. Once the set really started Trabert came through to win it for his team. During intermission, Tony took time to call Barry MacKay, who led the Wolverine tennis team to the Big Ten and NCAA champion- ships last year, the most promising amateur in American tennis to- day. Praises MacKay "He definitely has the equip- ment to be our number one play- er," the 1955 Wimbledon cham- pion said, "and I think he'll make the grade." MacKay traveled with the Kra-' mer pros for a while this spring, but then left to play amateur tournaments intthe West Coast before going on to Wimbledon. "We had him with us because we thought we could help his game-the experience and chal- lenge offered was what he need- ed," Trabert said. "I think it did, although Barry wasn't really with us long enough to tell."

Morri ll's 1r n. By STEVE ROGERS Michigan football coach Bennie Oosterbaan and his aides have been spending much of their time this spring trying to fill the holes in Michigan's line-up caused by graduation of 17 lettermen, but the one spot the Wolverines ap pear to have no trouble filling is -fullback. Three Lettermen The reason Oosterbaan has no worries about the fullback slot is that he has three returning let- termen: John Herrnstein, Gene Sisinyak and Tony Rio, along with a promising crop of freshmen at the position. Oosterbaan, though, is not ad- mitting that his fullback problem is completely solved. "We have depth," the Wolverine mentor said, but only Herrnstein is really experienced at the position. Herrnstein, currently on the Wolverine baseball team and therefore not out for spring foot- ball, is known to be injury prone and Oosterbaan has stated, "If Herrnstein gets injured, the full- back position will be up for grabs." Four Way Fight Sisinyak, Rio and freshmen John Walker and Dennis Fitzger- ald would fight it out for the starting berth if injuries plagued Herrnstein again next season." The recent performances of these two freshmen have made the coaches fairly optimistic about the fullback position. Fresh- man coach, Wally Weber praised them by saying, "Both will be ready to step into Big Ten compe- tition in the fall." Walker is a 210-lb. all-stater from Walled Lake. So far this spring his play, especially on of- fense, has pleased the entire coaching staff. Fitzgerald, a product of Ann Ar- bor's St. Thomas High School and a marine veteran, has, on the oth- er hand, made his best showing on defense. Weber terms him "a killer" on defense. If things become desperate Oos- terbaan could call upon Jim By- ers, last year's number two full back, who is currently the Wol- verine's first string center. Delta Sigma Phi's hopes of a spot in the first place playoffs of fraternity softball were spoiled yesterday as they were downed by Alpha Tau Omega, 7-4. Home runs by Bill Hernnstein and John Pallin for ATO gave pitcher Dave Ward all he needed to hand the Delt Sigs their first defeat in A softball. Three-Hitter Three hit pitching by Psi Ome- ga's George Hoaglin halted Nu Sigma Nu's pro fraternity group while Psi Omega exploded for 11 runs to trounce Nu Sig, 11-1. A five run third inning with insur- ance marks in the first and sixth frames accounted for Psi Omega's total. In other pro fraternity contests, Psi Alpha Kappa backed their pitcher, John VanIwaarden with unblemished fielding to defeat Alpha Omega, 11-3. An unearned home run with one aboard gave Law Club a 2-1 decision over Delta Sigma Pi in the only other game. 16" Ball Sigma Chi "B" humbled Delta Tau Delta, 24-12 in the lone game with the 16" sphere. The other scheduled game between Theta Chi and Chi Phi was postponed until this afternoon. Also called off by mutual agree- ment was the contest between Phi Delta Epsilon and Alpha Kappa Psi in the professional circuit. Winning by forfeit over Phi Delta Chi was Alpha Kappa Kappa.
