George Wilson and Ebe Martin contributed for Louisville, and Austin Knickerbocker and Hal Simpson for Toledo. SIMPSON'S came as a pinch-hitter in the fourth inning with two on and put the Hens back in the ball game at 7-6, after the visitors had built up a 7-2 edge. Manager Eddie Mayo, of Toledo, used five pitchers and four pinch-hitters in a futile effort to turn the tide.

Starter Ken Fremming, making his Triple-A debut, was the loser. He was knocked out in the second inning. Bob Alexander, Louisville veteran, went all the way, holding tUe Hens to six hits, all of which came in the first four innings. He faced but 16 men the last five frames as he held the Hens hitless and runless. He was helped along by three double plays.

Stalcup, however, termed the whole thing a "misunderstanding" and decided to stay at Missouri. To prevent a recurrence of that "foul-up," Newell was on hand at East Lansing to confirm his appointment. It was "double stamped" when San Francisco made a simultaneous announcement. THE NEW SPARTAN coach gained his greatest coaching fame during the 1948-49 season when he led an underdog San Francisco team to the National Invitational tournament championship at New York. This past season his team won 19 games and lost seven.

IN TAKING the Michigan State job, Newell said: "I think the possibilities here are unlimited. It is an ideal spot for a young coach. "I realize, however, the Western Conference is a tough league. I am no miracle man, and I hope the fans will not expect too much the first season. It will take time to produce really good basketball." Bennington captained Newell's championship team of two years ago.

The new assistant coach will come to East Lansing next month to conduct spring cage drills. Newell will not arrive on the campus until June.
