THU1RISD'AY, JULY 10,. 1947 THE MICHIGAN DAILY .... SPORTSCRIBBLES By ARCHIE PARSONS A FTR T_E CITY OF DETROIT made such a loud, if unsuccessful bid to hold the 1952 Olympic Games there, it was interesting to note that they did not bother to bid for the 1948 Olympic tryouts to be held nexi July: Perhaps the city fathers were sincere in their desire to play 1 ost to the '52 games, ht the pssibility is strong that they were mwre interested in the business end of the Games than in estab- ishing the Motor City as one of the citadels of the amateur ath- leic world. In fact, it is this writer's belief that one of the main reasons they failed in their bid for the Olympics was that Detroit, despite its bowling leagues and sandlot baseball, has always been lkown as a home of professional sports. Like the auto industry, Sports is strictly "big business" to the city. At any rate, if tie city really was interested in obtaining the Games, it would have been advisable for them to bid for next year's Tryouts, which, while not a money-making enterprise, would be some indication of Detroit's sincere interest in the furtherance of -Olympic' athlctPis,. After ~ending a plane-load of officials to Stockholm in quest of the Games, they just semed to forget the Olympics ever existed. H1lE LOGICAL ANSWER to this is that the city has no facilities to liojd Tryouts, and could not construct them on such short notice. The pitiful conditions under which the city high school track champ- ionships are held is proof of this--conditions so bad that even the coaels rased their voices to protest last year. To me this is just fur- ther proof that Detroit had better get busy and evince some interest in simaller amateur sports enterprises before trying' to pick off the Golden Plum. A.,. While speaking of the Olympics, this is a good time to tell Wolverine track fans of the activities of two former Michigan thin- clads who will return to campus in due time. Bob Thomason, crack distance runner on the 1945 and 1946 Wolverine teams, who was the youngest varsity letter-winner in Michigan history (he was 1, when le lettered in 145), recently won the 1500-meter run in the Japanese G.I. Olympics. Bob, an4Asbury Park, N.J. boy, is a former roommate of mine and is scheduled to return to school this winter. I don't think we'll be rooming together, however, since he upped and married on me before he went overseas. ALSO ON THE G.Z. TEAM over here is another Michigan track- man, Ron Soble, who hails from Chicago. Soble, a former Gol- den Gloves champion, enlisted in the paratroopers last year and trav- eled all over creation on an airborne G.I. boxing team. He also lived in the same house with Thomason and I, but how he wound up on the same track team with Bab in Japan is beyond me. While on the subject of track, people have been asking me how Chuck Fonville, Michigan's Big Nine and NCAA shot-put champion, only managed to place fifth in the National AAU Championships at Lincoln,'Neb. last weekend. From what I hear, they tried out a new asphalt throwing circle out there, and the heat softened it up considerably. Fonville, who is not extremely h'eavy as shot putter go (only 190 pounds), relies upon his sneed across the circle in tossing the iron ball. Thus, at the AAU meet, while Fonville was wading across the sticky circle, the heavier boys' exra poundage was making the difference. Just one of those things. ART CINEMA LEAGUE presents __ BASEBALL DATA: Majors Start Pennant Drives; Tigers Face Red Sox Today } BOB THOMASON ... Former Wolverine distance- running star who recentlyacap- tured the 1500-meter run crown in the G.I. Olympics in Japan. He is expected to return to school this winter. By MURRAY ROSE NEW YORK, July 9-(A)--The All-Star Game was just a bitter memory for the National Leaguers today as they buckled down for! another ding-dong battle to the' wire while the American Leaguers faced the possibility of another rout this time by the New York Yankees. Returning stars joined up with their clubs for the second half oft the races which finds the Eastern National nines playing host to the Westerners with the reverse situa- tion in the junior circuit. Although they were chuckl- ing over their 10th All-Star tri- umph, the American Leaguers, with the exception of the New' York group, were not too happy over the big edge held by the Yankees-. The Yanks, with a terrific Stad- ium record and a weak road mark, invaded St. Louis for tomorrow's night clash with an eight-game winning streak and an inspired ball club. The Red Sox and Tigers are in a virtual tie for second with the Detroiters a percentage point ahead. They will tangle in a twilight tilt in Tigertown with either Dave (Boo) Ferrissj on Tex Hughson going against! Detroit. Strung out behind the secondc and third placers are Connie; Mack's amazing Philadelphia A's7 (102), Cleveland (11), Chicagol (121). Washington (1412), and St. Louis (1W9/). In the National, Brooklyn's Dodgers were riding atop the heap with a game edge over the Boston Braves, with the New York Giants another half length astern. In threatening positions were the up- coming World Champion St. Lous Cardinals, Chicago's Cubs and Cincinnati's Reds. The Cards were 4, games be- hind the league leaders with Chi- cago 5/ out and Cincinnati six. Only the Philadelphia Phils (1212) and Pittsburgh Pirates (13) ap- peared out of the chase. The Brooks, Braves and Gi- ants have been moving in and out of the first three spots vir- tually all season and another shift could very easily happen tomorrow when the Cubs invade Ebbets Field for a doublehead- er with Brooklyn, St. Louis plays at New York and Cincinnati vis- its at Boston. Mel Ott and his New York Wrecking Crew, still up in the chase despite mediocre mound- work take on the surging Cards who seem to have straightened out their kinks for thteir usual second half season spurt. This five-game series, which includes a night game tomorrow and successive doubleheaders Friday and Satur- day could very well be the making or breaking of either club provid- ing one of the teams winds up with a 4-1 edge or 5-0 sweep. ! i t M +E I t k I 7 4 !{j i i Y 1 i 1 c t 1 r ] {i (I { Schalon New Golf Captain Sophom ore Ed Schalon, Michigan's smooth-swinging golfer who was co-medalist in this year's Big Nine individual championships, has been elect- ed captain of the 1948 Wolver- ine links squad. Schalon, a husky St. Joseph athlete, succeeds Dave Barclay, who captained the Wolverines the past two years.. Barclay, who recently won the National Collegiate individual links title at Ann Arbor, will compete again next year. The ,*captain-elect will enter the Michigan State Amateur Thursday at the Port Huron fairways. ''7Linksmen fI State Meet PORT HURON, Mich., July 9- GP)-An estimated field of 175 golfers including Michigan links- men Ed Schalon and Rog Kessler, are scheduled to tee off tomor- row in the qualifying round of the Michigan Amateur Golf Champ- ionship at the Black River Coun- try Club. They will shoot at the crown won last year by Louis Wendrow of Lansing, who is one of eight entrants not required to qualify. Par for the 6,278 yard, 18-hole course is 72, with the out nine carrying a yardage of 3,248 and the back stretch 3,030. It was reported in perfect condition. Eighteen holes of medal play Thursday will qualify 64 for the match play which begins Friday and continues until a champion is crowned sometime Sunday. The tournament, held last year at Charlevoix, is part of Port Hur- on's Blue Water Festival program. Besides Wendrow, entries not required to qualify include Har- old Brink of Grand Rapids, the 1946 runnerup, Ben Smith of De- troit, a former University of Mich- igan star, H. K. Weslock of North- ville, who finished third in the 1941 Canadian Open, and John Kiedis of Grand Rapids, Harold Stewart of Birmingham, and Aug- ie York and Harold Wright of Saginaw. T h e Intramural All-campus Golf Tournament began yesterday at the University Golf Course, as a large number of participants teed off on an 18-hole medal play round. -Tournament Director Newt Loken announced that the tourney, which will continue through Sunday, is open to all students, and the sole requirement is that each contestant turn in his card, signed by one other player, at the club house on the course. Upon completion of the medal round, the linksmen will be di- vided into flights according to their opening round scores, and a match play tournament will get under way July 15. Each flight winner will receive an in- dividual medal, and if enough time remains, a final elimination event will be held to determine the all-campus champion. The first round of the summer handball schedule has been com- pleted with Stan Blink, Dan Git- tleson, and K. Lynn posting vic- tories in the six-man round robin tourney. * * * After the resurfacing of the 26 Ferry Field tennis courts, there will be a charge of 25 cents per hour per person for those students, faculty members, and University employees who wish to use them.

Flint grabbed an early lead, scoring three runs in the first two innings off pitcher Johnny Humphries. Detroit totaled nine hits while Flint collected eight, six off Hum- phries, in the first four innings. The only hits off Art Houtte- man in the five innings he worked were a double and triple by Negro outfielder Dave Hoskins. Hoskins also tagged Humphries for a sin- gle and drove in a run with a' long fly. Houtteman faced only 17 men and struck out eight. Inverness Golf Starts Today TOLEDO, 0., July 9-AP)-Allj Star field of "Sweet 16" startsj firing tomorrow in the greatest spectator tournament of them all -the $10,000 Inverness Four-Ball Matches. Three former PGA kings, three National Open champions and a former ruler of both American and British amateur golf, along with several winners of the famed Masters event, are numbered among the eight twosomes which will battle it out over 126 holes for the top prize of $3,000 won last year by little Ben Hogan and flashy Jim Demaret. Under the Inverness scoring plan each duo will meet each other twosome over 18 holes of best-ball match play. The win- ning two-some gets a "plus" equal to the number of holes it fin- ishes "up" on the opposition, while the losers get a "minus" of the same amount. The scores are carried over from match to match, and at the finish the pair with the biggest "plus" grabs the $3,000.
