Unbeafen i'm 2 Years
Ed Kukorowsk. U. D. Huber. Hasn't Even Been
Knocked Out Of Box Also Stars at Bat

Mainstay OF the University of
Detroit pitching staff is Big Ed
Kukorowski, right-handed pegger
who has never been beaten in two
seasons of intercollegiate compe-
tition. The husky fast-ball artist
has never been knocked out of the
box in that time.
Kukorowski is a tackle on the
varsity football team, but so great
is his enthusiasm for the diamond
pastime that he did not report for
grid practice this spring. He was
afraid he might injure his arm,
and then Coach Bud Boeringer
would be left without an expe-
rienced hurler.
The big fellow is an exception
among pitchers. He is a hard
hitter, and he is a good fielder.
He is hitting over the 400 mark
at the moment. In the infrequent
games in which he does not hurl,
he is often called upon to pinch
bat.
His chief assets are a blazing
and exceptional poise on
the hill. The Titans have been
playing this year with a patched
up infield that lacks experience
and is apt to fly to pieces at any
time. Kukorowski's own calmness
in the clutch has done much to
pull the club together, and he
has consistently shown that he
can pitch over his mates misplays.
big Kuke Is all right for my
money" declares Coach Bud

Message To General Doug

Members of the Brigade Boys

more than 100000 other boys over
the nation in observing National
Boys club week last week.
The week was climaxed Saturday
when representatives of the clubs
observed General Douglas Mac

to the general in Australia.
Earlier in the week, Presiden1
Roosevelt, in a message to the
boys clubs of the nation, declared:
There is perhaps no single fact
of greater Importance today thar
that each of us has a job to dc
and that on each of us depends
the ultimate success of the strug
bers, not only for their present
tasks in their communities but
their future roles as leaders OF
democracy, is a vivid recognition
of this paramount fact.
