According to many Wolverine grid fans Kruse was the best Maize and Blue end prospect since All American Ed Frutig enrolled at - Michigan. During the past winter Coach Fritz Crisler has pointed out time and again that one of the loop- holes on the team that needed 1lugging before the season began was at end. It won't surprise many of the more astute Midwestern football touts if Kruse goes to. Notre Dame to finish his college career. Beiore the lanky freshman decided to come to Ann Arbor he was debating between Mich- igan and the famous University at South Bend. * * * WHEN the Big Ten-Pacific Coast track meet gets under way at Dyche Stadium in Evanston, Ill., to- day four Michigan speedsters will appear in the Conference lineup: Bob Ufer, Dave Matthews, Al Thomas and Frank McCarthy. Originally McCarthy was not scheduled to compete in the meet but when Iowa's Hank Vollenweider was -called into the Army, Big Ten officials picked Jhe Michigan hurdler as a substitute. Ufer and Matthews took part in the NCAA meet in Des Moines last week. Although Matthews took a fourth in the half mile he turned in his best time of the season when he ran the distance in 1:52.1. The record breaking Ufer still seems to he having trouble with his injured leg because the game junior didn't even place in the 440-yard run. M ATT MANN, smiling Wolverine -swimming mentor, could prac- tically form a tank squad from his ex-pupils that are now at the Great Lakes Naval Traiinng Station. Among the more prominent representatives are Tom Haynie, Dobby Burton and Bill Canton. All these boys are teaching swimming to the sailors. Canton has just been promoted and will instruct officers in aquatic activities starting next week. * * * M ICHIGAN got more thait its share of baseball laurels this year as it tied for first place and retained the Big Ten Crown. Official Conference figures show that the following individual hon- ors were taken by Wolverine play- ers. Most Hits: Don Robinson, 20, Most Runs: Dave Nelson, 20. Most Bases: Bud Chamberlain, 27. Most Home Runs: Paul White, Chamberlain, 2. Most Runs Batted In: Chamber- lain, 25. Most Stolen Bases: Nelson, 11. Immediately following the last game of the season Don Robinson was elected 1943 baseball captain. The sensational little shortstop was the first sophomore to be elected to that honor in more than 10 years. "Robie" lead the Wolverines in hitting this year with the excellent average of .416. Many of his hits came from some beautiful bunts and before the season was very old many Big Ten coaches were calling him the best bunter that they had ever seen in college competition. Rival third basemen would stand practic- ally on Robinson's neck waiting for a bunt, but the speedy shortstop con- tinued to beat out their futile at- tempts to throw him out. CRACKER CRUMBS: All-Ameri- can Bob Westfall enrolled in summer school yesterday and will probably stay in Ann Arbor until the fall when the Army calls himn up. Dave Matthews, lanky Royal Oak quarter-miler who leads a four- man Michigan team in the Big Ten-Pacific Coast meet today. Williamts' A terage is 1Joosted To .337; (ordon Still Leads CHICAGO, June 13. -{AP)- Ted Williams, who a month ago was plodding along the American League batting trail at a .287 pace, scarcely a shadow of the .406 with which he won the 1941 hitting title, has an- chored himself well up in the .330's through Sunday's games. That's not good news for his slugging rivals nor for the league's pitching corps. The Boston Red Sox blaster, his average hoisted clear to .340 two weeks ago, fell to .324 in seven days but with a week's effort of nine hits in 20 times at bat came up to .337, good enough forefifth in the latest tabulation. The real contest thus far, however, is between a pair of second basemen, Joe Gordon of the New York Yankees and Bobby Doerr of the Red Sox. Gordon's mark .fell seven points in seven days to .386, while Doerr re- mained stationary at .375 and there- fore trails by only 11 points. Last week's no. 3 man, Bill Dickey of the Yanks, dropped a point to .345 and saw his position endan- gered not only by Williams' rush but also by a surge by Les Fleming, the Cleveland Indians' first baseman. Fleming, tied a week ago in eighth with Ted, rallied 15 points worth to move up to fourth with a .339. After Williams come Stan Spence of Washington, .329; Buddy Hassett of New York, .328; John Pesky of Boston, .324; Jeff Heath of Cleve- land, .312, and Bruce Campbell of Washington, .310. By AL STEINMAN Competition, which has always been the key note of University of Michigan sports, will again be em- phasized beginning late next week when the Intramural Department launches its 15th annual "Play For All" program. Earl Riskey, the director of I-M activities, announced that competi- tive sports will be offered to Fratern- ities, Residence Halls, and Independ- ents, just as they are during the reg- ular school year. These organiza- tions should elect athletic managers as soon as possible so that a definite program can be mapped out. The sooner that the 'managers are chosen and contact the Intramural Depart- ment, the quicker action will begin. Softball Featured The principal sport will probably be softball, and if at all possible leagues will be formed to run the entire summer. With good weather here to favor the athletes, there should be many games played before the end of the term. If there are enough teams entered in the pro- gram, two leagues will probably be formed and will be climaxed by a "Little World Series" late in the sea- son. Now if you are not a ball player don't -think that there isn't a place for you in I-M sports, because such things as tennis, swimming, golf, horseshoes and track will also be of- fered on an individual as well as competitive basis. The emphasis will very definitely be placed upon out- door sports, and swimming will be about the only inside activity offered. A great deal of the action will take place on South Ferry Field. Swim- ming will be held in the Sports Build- ing Pool, home of one of the na- tion's best collegiate teams, and golf- ers will have the opportunity to com- pete on the University's own cham- pionship course. The I-M staff will take care of all officiating and will furnish most of equipment needed. Fletcher Dorm Winner Anything can happen in Intra- mural competition as was shown in the all-year championship complet- I ed last semester. Williams House, which had won the coveted title the year before, was apparently on its way to another crown with only one week of games left. On the last day when the results were tabulated, it was found that Fletcher Hall had nosed out Williams by just a few points. It was a knock down, furi- ous battle right down to the finish, and was typical of the competitive spirit shown at Michigan. The other team awards were won by Phi Delta Theta in the fraternity division, and by the Foresters in the Independent loop. The Phi Delt triumph was their second straight. Since this is a regular term, Intra- mural awards will be given to groups and individuals as they are during the normal year. I-M's will be the only real means of competition on campus during the summer, so all those who are inter- ested should note the blank which can be found on page eight of to- day's Daily. HEank GreenbeargIII; Cards Buy Catcher MIAMI BEACH, Fla., June 15.-VP) -Hank Greenberg was taken to the Naval Air Station Hospital in Miami last night apparently suffering from an acute attack of appendicitis but his condition today was improved and an operation was believed un- necessary.
