INTRAMURAL ROUND-UP:
Eight Softball Teams Launch
Championship Battles Today

Eight teams, representing three
intramural leagues, will partici-
pate in the annual softball cham-
pionship tournament which gets
under way tonight at South Ferry
Field.
Three teams each will "go to
the post for the Independent and
Fraternity loops, while the Resi-
dence Hall League will send only
two squads out to bring in the
summer softball bacon.
Pairings have been made and
tonight's schedule stacks up as
follows:
Law Club vs. ZBT
West Lodge vs. Adams House
Psi Upsilon vs. Allen-Rumsey
Hardrocks vs. Lambda Chi Al-
pha
In beating out Lloyd House yes-
terday, 2-1 Adams House became
the second Residence Hall softba)
team to make its way into the
championship tournament.
Don Gittleson displayed lots of
versatility last week when he
swept to both the intramural
handball and paddleball cham-
pionships. Gittleson turned on the
heat to defeat Arnold Larsen in

the paddleball tourney, and then
kept rolling along as he downed
Karyl Lynn for the handball
crown.
With Chuck Menninger safe-
ly entrenched in the number one
slot of the championship flight
in the I-M summer golf tour-
ney, linksmen in two other divi-
sions teed off over the week-end:
to decide who should wear the
crown in their respective flights.
Bob Campeau earned the second
flight toga by eliminating Dick
Preston 3 and 2, and Vern Connell
captured third division honors by
drubbing Dave Trease 4-3. The
fourth flight champion has not yet
been decided.
Bill Culver took double honors
in the I-M tennis tournament
Monday and yesterday when he
sneaked by Fred Wellington,
Michigan netter from the '46
season, in straight sets, 6-4, 6-3,
for the singles crown, then
teamed up with Emery Free-
man to win the doubles from the
foreign team of Rasin Tek and
Tony Tiverios 6-1, 6-4.

Trail by Six Games
By The Associated Press
Pitching one-hit ball through
six innings, Bob Lemon required
help in the ninth to* win as the
Indians whipped the Detroit Tig-
ers, 8 to. 4, in a twilight affair.
The victors sent Dizzy Trout
down to his fifth straight de-
feat with asthree-run spree in
the fifth that put them ahead
to stay. Indian batters bunched
four hits off Al Benton for three
more runs in the seventh and
never were pressed although 'Ed
Klieman was called in to stop
a Tiger threat in the ninth when
Detroit filled the bases with no-
body out.
In a successful ninth inning'
rally, the Yankees drove in four
runs to defeat the A's, 8-5.
Dave Ferris limited Washing-
ton to five hits but his wildness
cost the Boston Red Sox a 3-1
defeat by the Senators.
Chicago, behind Ed L op at,
handcuffed the St. Louis Brown-
ies, 5-1.
Although they were outhit, the
Bostqn Braves deieated the Na-
tional League leading Brook-
lyn Dodgers, 4-2, behind John-
ny Sain who turned in his 15th
victory against seven setbacks.
The loss placed the Brooks. only
six games ahead of the Cardi-
nals, who downed the Chicago
Cubs, 8-2. Harry Brecheen's 11-
hit pitching merged with home
runs by Del Rice and Whitey
Kurowski gave the Cards a
sweep of their two-game series.
Johnny Mize blasted his 33rd
and 34th home runs of the year
to pace the Giants to a 5-2 victory
over the Phillies. Lefty Dave Kos-
lo checked the Phils on three hits
to post his 13th win of the season
as against six setbacks.
The Pittsburgh Pirates cap-
italized on ' loose Cincinnati
pitching to romp to a 12-4 vic-
tory. Three Redleg hurlers gave
up 11 hits and 10 walks before a
fourth twirler, John Hetki,
stopped the Buccos.

SPORT SCRAPBOOK
By IRWIN ZUCKER
BROOKLYN IS our native land, and according to reports from back
home, our Beloved Bums are resolved to maintain their present
top rung on the National League ladder . . . even in the absence of
Leo Durocher, who cracked the other day, "Burt Shotton doesn't want
to manage the club . . . He doesn't even want to wear a Dodger
uniform ... "
These words tend to indicate that Leo the Lip is apparently
worried about getting his job back next year .. . The Sporting
News, which usualy knows the answers, says Leo will manage the
Pittsburgh Pirates in '48 . . . Everybody's entitled to their own
prediction.
We don't think there will be any suicides in Flatkush if Branch
Rickey doesn't plant Durocher in the driver's seat next year . . . The
way Shotton has been coasting along with the winning Brooks has
undoubtedly warmed the heart of every Dodger fan . . . and has
exploded the myth that Durocher is a "must" at Ebbetts Field.
* * * *
Alfred Thomas, former track and football letter winner at
Michigan and more recently associated with the coaching staff at
Ishpeming (Mich.) High, has been named assistant coach and
instructor in physical education at William and Mary College ...
When Ohio State captured the National Outdoor AAU swim meet
last week-end, it became the first college to win four major titles
in ohe year ... The Buckeyes previously garnered the 1947 indoor
championships in the National AAU, NCAA, and the Big Nine.
Six 1946-47 Big Nine basketball stars have been allotted the Chi-
cago Stags at the recent draft meeting of the Basketball Association
of America in New York . . . Now all Coach Harold Olsen of the BAA's
Western Division titlists has to do is to persuade the six collegians to
sign on the dotted line. . . The Stags claim professional rights to Andy
Phillip and Gene Vance of Illini Whiz Kid fame; Glenn Selbo, one-
time Michigan hoopster who starred for Wisconsin last year; Ben
Schadler of Northwestern; Dick Ives of Iowa; and Paul Houston of
Ohio State.

Aside to Jerry Karsh of the School of Journalism: Forget about
trying to cover the bull fights in South America late this month
for the Daily ... We suspend publication Sunday until the start
of the fall session ... Instead, enjoy your honeymoon with Ber-
nice Nemeroff.

Student Wins
In 'Optimist'
Golf Tourney
Dick Gilbert, Michigan law stu-
dent, dropped a shot eight and one
half inches away from the pin to
walk off with top honors in the
men's division of the Ann Arbor
Optimist Club's hole-in-one tour-
nament last Sunday on the 16th
hole of the Municipal Golf Course.
Miss Lathrop Wins
Miss Jane Lathrop's drive which
was ten feet short of the mark,
was good enough for the number
one spot in the women's section.
A total of 336 golfers teed off
in the tourney, smacking 1,008
shots off the tee on the 150-yard
hole, and 188 of the pokes landed
on the green. The enthusiastic
response caused the Optimist Club
to decide to make this an annual
event hereafter, and next year's
tournament will also include a
driving contest.
Runners-up Listed
Francis Lotte placed second in
the men's division with a shot that
was 3 feet 7% inches shy, while
Charles Weeks was third. In the
women's section, Corrine Crogen
took the runner-up slot with a
mark of 22 feet, % inches, with
Peg Sadler third.
Gilbert, the winner, thus quali-
fies for a $70 tailored men's suit,
while Miss Lathrop will be award-
ed a $50 silver service. A total of
40 prizes, worth $400 dollars, were
offered to contestants and five
extra "surprise" awards were also
given out.
