Byrne, a 35-year-old veteran, re- tired the last seven batters in a row to preserve the victory for young Ralph Terry in his major league debut. * * * Tigers 9, Indians 0 DETROIT - Righthander Paul Foytack of the Detroit Tigers fast- balled his way to his first major league shutout last night, blanking the Cleveland Indians, 9-0, on five hits in what started out as a pitch- ing duel with Herb Score. The Tigers exploded for seven runs against reliefers Art Houtte- man and Bob Feller in the eighth inning before Cal McLish was able] to subdue them.

Thurston Si ns Pact With Tigers DETROIT-Bill Thurston, out- fielder-pitcher for Michigan's baseball squad for the past two years, has signed a minor league contract with the Charleston club of the American Association. Charleston is the top minor league team in the Detroit Tigers' farm system. The Wolverines thus lose one of their star players. The 20-year-old Thurston had a year of eligibility remaining at Michigan where he is listed as a senior for the 1956-57 school year. Thurston was scouted by Don Lund and signed by scout George Moriarty. The Tiger talent- hunters were interested in the 6'1" 170-lb. diamondman primar- ily as an outfielder because of his impressive hitting ability. A left-handed batter, Thurston compiled a .384 batting average in 26 games for Michigan during the 1956 season. He also clouted three home runs. As a right- handed pitcher, he had a 3-1 rec- ord with a 2.57 earned run aver- age. Thurston's 1955 Wolverine rec- ord was .340 at the plate and 4-2 on the mound. He will report immediately to the Tigers' Augusta farm club of the Sally League from Yankton, S. D. where he has been playing in a summer college league.

Scheduled over two months ago, the meeting heard the report of a four-man committee onathletic practices. Practically the entire Saturday session was devoted to discussing the committee report, but no law-making was attempted. Instead, it was decided to permit the committee-composed of Ath- letic Directors H. O. "Fritz" Crisler of Michigan and Ivy.Williamson of Wisconsin and faculty represen- tatives Verne C. Freeman of Pur- due and Leslie Scott of Michigan State-to draft legislation to be voted on at the December meeting of the Big Ten, Much Accomplished Although the meeting was main- ly confined to discussion, Crisler did feel that much was accomp- lished in "clearing the air" fol- lowing the recent wave of accusa- tions against Big Ten schools be- gun in a Look Magazine article. Michigan's faculty representa- tives Prof. Marcus Plant intimated that new rules concerning fin- ancial aid to athlets will stem from the special committee's report. Plant said, "There was strong sentiment among the delegates in favor of having financial aid to athletes determined on the basis of need." A subsidiary of the Educational Testing Service is being considered to investigate the needs of athletes so that they will receive just that amount and no more, If such legislation does come at' the December meeting, it will allow a practice that had been going on at Michigan forhsome time. Until then, however, the Wolverines and other schools have been ordered not to interpret Section Three of the present code as permitting aid solely on the basis of need. Investigate Michigan The Conference eligibility com- mittee looked into the matter of whether Michigan had violated rules in giving aid to star football end Ron Kramer. While stating that Michigan had misinterpreted the regulations by not considering academic status in granting the aid, the committee felt there was no reason to punish the school or Kramer because there was "sufficient ambiguity" in the present code. New legislation at the December Sailing Club Wins Regatta Michigan's Sailing Club won the Summer Open Regatta at Base Line Lake Saturday by compiling a total of 51 points in 10 dinghy races. Five schools participated in the regatta which was open to any collegiate sailing clubs interested. Cincinnati finished second to Michigan, only six points behind. Purdue followed with 35 points for its day's efforts. Michigan State was fourth with 291/2 and Wayne finished last with a 27 total. Altogether Michigon won three of the 10 races with skipper Doug McClennan leading the crew to two victories. Tomas Johnstone guided the other triumph. The re- maining four skippers - Frank Reed, Emil Nicolaysen, Bruce Wal- lace and Dave Weigel - all man- aged to finish at least third in their races. Milwaukee Brooklyn Cincinnati St. Louis Philadelphia Pittsburgh Chicago New York meeting is expected to standar- dize aid to athletes in all schools in the Big Ten. Competition for athletes would be eliminated be- tween schools and any athlete would get the same amount of aid from whatever school in the Con- ference that he decided to attend. Aaron Opens Wmide Lead In National's Bat Race I 60 60 60 50 48 44 43 36 GEORGE GoBEL-MfIZI QW DAIAD UI 39 42 43 51 52 57 57 60 .606 .588 .583 .495 .480 .436 .430 .375 NEW YORK (A') - In " spring training this season Charlie Grimm, then manager of the Mil- waukee Braves, declared that Hank Aaron definitely was a threat to win the National League batting title. Aaron has made Grimm's prophesy look good. The 22-year-old outfielder, in only his third season with the Braves, has turned the batting race into a runaway by opening up a 19-point gap over Stan Musial of St. Louis, a six-time winner and regarded by many as "the player to beat." Aaron tops the National circuit with a .344 average. Musial is Four-Minute Mile Run by Ibbotson LONDON (P)- Derek Ibbotson joined the exclusive "four minute milers' club" yesterday at the Lon- don White City track meet. The 23-year-old Yorkshireman was clocked at a surprising 3:59.4 on the wet track to win the Emsley Carr Trophy. He became the ninth man to break the four-minute mile. Alto- gether the mark has been broken 15 times in 10 races. The world record-holder is Australia's John Landy with 3:58.0. runnerup at .325 through games of Sunday. Mickey Mantle of the New York Yankees continues to dominate the American League hitting depart- ments. The switch-hitting out- fielder is the batting leader with a .368 average; is tops in home runs with 37 and heads the runs batted in department with 93. Last week Mantle swatted five homers to put him 11 games ahead of Babe Ruth's record performance of 60 in 1927. Boston's Ted Williams ranks be- hind Mantle in the batting derby with .350. Veteran Mickey Vernon, also of the Red Sox, was third with .344. Brooklyn's Duke Snider, with five homers during the week, has taken over the National League home run supremacy with 30. Mu- sial still is the front-runner in RBI's with 81.
