Bennie Oosterbaan Relinquishes
Duties to Former Dartmouth Mentor
Cowles Best Man
For Job--Crisler
* * *
c Crisler Nominates
Cowles Once More
Osborne B. (Ozzie) Cowles, king-
maker of Dartmouth's perennial Ivy
League basketball champions, will be
recommended to the Board of Re-
gents to replace Bennie G. Ooster-
baan as Michigan basketball coach,
Athletic Director H. 0. (Fritz) Crisler
announced yesterday.
Oosterbaan, who has been coaching
Michigan cage squads since 1938, was
recently appointed backfield coach
of the football team, a promotion
from the end coach position he had
held since 1938, and his additional
duties with the football squad caused
him to request relief from his cage
duties.
Cowles' eight year tenure at Dart-
mouth was one of the most success-
ful reigns in modern collegiate bas-
ketball history.
"In recommending Cowles," Cris-
ler said, "I feel that we are extreme-
ly fortunate. He is absolutely, in my
estimation, the best possible man for
the position we could select."
A 46 year - old Midwesterner,
Cowles was an outstanding athlete
in baseball, basketball, and football
at Carleton College. Before going tof
Dartmouth, he coached at Rochester
high school, Carleton College, his
alma mater, Iowa State Teachers
College, and River Falls Teachers
College.
He served in the Navy as a lieu-
tenant for 221/2 months during the
war. Cowles is married and has one
son, David, who served in the Army,
and a daughter, Roxanne.
OSSIE COWLES--Outstanding Ivy
League basketball coach has been
recommended by Athletic Director
"Fritz" Crisler to succeed Bennie
Oosterbaan as Michigan cage men-
tor.
Man-O' War Mark Tied
INGLEWOOD, Calif., Aug. 3-
(P)--Historian tied Man-O'-War's
record for the mile and five eighths
today as he won the $50,000 sun-
set handicap, closing day feature
of the Hollywood Park meeting.
The'big five year old gelding trav-
elled the distance in 2:40:4 to win
going away from Paperboy and
Triplicate.
Osborne "Ozzie" Cowles seems to
be a favorite protege of Michigan's
"Fritz" Crisler; the Wolverine ath-
letic director has for the second
time played the leading role in re-
commending him for a top basketball
position. Eleven years ago it was Cris-
ler's encouraging word which brought
Cowles to Dartmouth from obscurity
in Wisconsin.
He comes to Ann Arbor after a
brilliant career among the age-old
halls of the Ivy League, where he
led Dartmouth to seven conference
championships in eight years. The
one "off" year the Indian quintet
finished a close second.
Won 74 of 92
Testifying to the fact that Cowles
produces some of the best brand of
basketball in the nation, lartmouth
under his direction captured 74 of
92 games played. Of a total of 46
contests on the home court in Han-
over, N.H., Cowles quint won 43;
they captured 31 of 46 away.
Cowles was born 46 years ago in
Brown's Valley, Minn., and starred in
high school athletics there. He went
on to become an outstanding all-
round athlete at Carleton College in
Minnesota. He was basketball cap-
tain for two seasons there, aver-
aging 16 points per game during his
junior year playing guard.
Rochester First Position
After graduating from Carleton,
he secured his first coaching job at
Rochester, Minn. high school. The
very first Cowles football eleven
flashed to th'e state championship,
and his initial basketball squad tra-
veled all the way to the. state semi-
finals before they were eliminated.
Cowles' first college coaching posi-
tion was at Iowa State Teachers Col-
lege, where he spent only a year. His
alma mater called him from there,
and he returned to lead the Carleton
cage quints he had once captained.
His Carleton aggregations played a
total of 52 games during his six
years, losing only four, two of them
by a single point.
Before ghe went to Dartmouth in
1937, he coached for three years at
River Falls Teachers College in Wis-
consin.
It was then that Michigan's "Fritz"
Crisler first had a hand in securing
Cowles a coaching position. At that
time the present Wolverine athletic
director was football coach at Prince-
ton University.'
On the recommendation of Crisler,
Cowles was appointed head basket-
ball mentor of Dartmouth. Since then
the new Michigan cage mentor has
risen rapidly to fame. His Indian
quintets have been invited to compete
in the NCAA Championships three
times, more than any other college
squad in the country. \
During the war, Cowles served as
a lieutenant in the Navy. He was dis-
charged after 221/2 months active
duty.
Flam Captures
Nation's Junio,
Net Tourney
By The Associated Press
KALAMAZOO, Mich., Aug. 3-
Herbie Flam, wiry little Beverly Hills,
Calif., teen-age tennis sensation,
swept to his second successive Nation-
al Junior Championship at the for-
mal dedication of Kalamazoo Col-
lege's new stadium today, whipping
Herbertd(Buddy) Behrens of Ft.
Lauderdale, Fla., in straight sets in
the finals, 6-3, 9-7, 6-2.
Flam, the 17-year-old California
kid of the courts, thus roled through
his second straight national champ-
ionship without loss of a single set.
With an estimated 2,000 fans in,
the amphitheatre seats, Flam wasted
little time demonstrating his marked
superiority, handling Behrens' stra-
tegic drop shots and hard overhand
shots with flawless ease.^p
While Flam was taking his third
national title here in the last four
years (he won the National Boys'
Crown in 1943), second-seeded Gil-
bert Bogley of Chevy Chase, Md.,
downed Jerry Dewitts of San Fran-
cisco, 7-5, 5-7, 6-1, to annex the 1946
boys' title.
Bogley three times failed to take
match point in the second set but
after Dewitts pulled even hisgame
left him in the final set
CAMPUS WORLD SERIES:
Residence Halls, Fraternities
Preparing for All-Star Battle
It's the American against the Na-
tional League at Ferry Field come Au-
gust 7, as the cream of the Residence
and Fraternity softball leagues clash
in the inaugural Campus All-Star
battle.
Don't look for any Ted Williamses,
or Charley Kellers, because this is
to be the first classic; this is still
the era of Babe Ruth, Gehrig, Hub-
bell, and Ott in his heyday. These
are the teams managed by Connie
Mack and tough old John McGraw.
"McGraw" and "Mack"
Only McGraw and Mack aren't
McGraw and Mack at all, but are
Ray Steel and Aimo Saari, who will
handle the softballing Ruths, Gehr-
igs, and Hubbells of the Residence
and Fraternity Leagues respectively.
Manager Saari will select his stable
of pitching and power from a batch
of Fraternity softballing talent which
includes:
Infielders: Magidson, Shaeffer,
Moon, Nicholson, Lowenstein, Haig,
Hartrick, and Freeman..
Outfielders: Newman, Myll, Nikkel.
Pitchers: Youngblood,, Major.
Catchers: Newman, Nikker, Magid-
son.
Residence Men
Steel and the Residence Men will
counter with a lineup that will
drawn from the following can
dates:
Infielders: Altese, Perlman, Nels
Scarbuck, Jokela, Mitchell, Bottle
and Kasejain.
Outfielders: Daggs, Dunlap, PE
pas, Wisely, Dutcher.
Pitchers: Perlman, Lantos, Col]
Dripman.
Catcher: Altese.
There should be action aplei
when the American and Natio
Leaguers of the Intramural softt
world get together. The pre-ga
dope suggests that the game is
evenly matched that no one will kr
which of the two teams, Residence
Fraternity, is the American Leal
until its all over.
The one hit performance attri
uted to Vets Housing pitcher, Hu4
Palmer, in yesterday's 1-0 win ov
the Law Club, was actually a si
hitter. Losing pitcher, Dick Nie
olas tossed the one-hitter.

NATIONAL LEAGUE
By DICK KRAUS
There'll be plenty of reinforce-
ments on the football front this fall
for Coach "Fritz" Crisler's 1945,
"Baby Wehrmacht," which featured
six 17 year olds in the starting line-
up that piled up seven victories as
against three losses to top, teams in
the nation, Army, Navy, and Indiana.
In fact, if Crisler chose, he could
field an all-ex-GI eleven come next
September. He could even play a
squad of dischargees , made up en-
tirely of returnees from the 1942, '43,
and '44 aggregations.
For a backfield Crisler could choose
from Ralph Chubb, right half, Gene
Derricote, and Bill Culligan, who
shared tailback duties in 1944, Paul
White, '42, and '43 right half, Bob
Chappuis, Bob Vernier, and .Don
Boor, left half, quarterback and full
back on the '42 squads, and Bob
Wiese, last of Michigan's great spin-
ning fullbacks, who carried the mail
in '42 and '43.
Tlree Top Ends
Up front, returning servicemen in-
clude a trio of top flight ends, Bruce
Hilkene and Jack Petosky, of the '43
squad, and Elmer Madar. Madar and
tackle Bill Pritula who is also re-
turning are the last of the "Seven
Oak Posts" of 1942. For center line
duty other available ex-GI's include
Walt Freihofer, '42, Frank Kern,
Quentin Sickels, and George Krager,
who all played in '43 and George
Burg, '44.
A miscellaneous. but very handy
returning item, is the educated toe
of "Automatic Jim Brieske. Brieske
booted field goals' and extra points
wit monotonous regularity. back in
'41, and '42.
But tough as this demobilized
power-pack threatens to be, there's
a host, of other rugged footballers
among the record shattering turnout,
which is expected to hit the 150 mark,
who will have plenty to say about
the top spots in Crisler's plans.
Last Year's Frosh Back
First, there's the remnants of
Michigan's freshman-studded '45 out-
fit, the same hopped-up youngsters
who played Blanchard, Davis and
Co., o its feet for a full thirty min-
utes to give the mighty West Poii
ers the biggest scare of the season
Last year's ferocious frosha v
bring the added polish of ten tou
games plus a little more maturity ir
the pre-season battle for starti
positions.
Tony Momsen will have anotl
crack at heavy duty from the pii
spot. At the ends Lennie Ford, t
pass-grabbing 6 ft. 5 in. Neg
and Ed McNeill are good bets to i
a lot of action. McNeill was shifted
quarterback during Spring practi
but with the return of Joe Ponse
and Howard Yerges he may be
turned to the end position.
Jack Weisenberger, who can p:
left half or fullback, and Captf
Art Renner, end, were two of the f
veterans on last year's eleven, a
both are back for another seaso
activity.
