Climax and Wind-up of the Indoor Track Season Tonight When Cornell Meets Michigan- Some Surprises in Store -Officials Selected. The Cornell track team, fifteen strong, in charge of Trainer Moak- ley, arrived in Ann Arbor last night and were sent early to bed to get a good night's sleep in preparation for the coming dual meet in Water- man gymnasium tonight. They are confident of putting up the best kind of a fight in every event and expect to capture their full share of the points. The reserved seats are practically exhausted, there being less than a dozen left last evening. The man- agement has made elaborate prep- arations to take care of the crowd of reserved seat holders and there will be a large force of ushers on hand. However, it is physically im- possible for the ushers to seat so many people at one time, and as the events will begin at eight o'clock sharp the head ushers request that reserved seat ticket Iolders come some minutes early. The doors will be opened at 7:15 p. m. and as soon as the gallery is comfortably filled no More general admissions will be sold. As to the outcome o the moeet itself, the chances seem to favor Michigan by the smallest possible margin. This is the result partially of the handicap an unfamiliar track will be to the Cornell men. Trainer Fitzpatrick looks to see at least one record broken, and possibly more. Rose will make another effort to raite the world's record in the shotput, and the fierce competition in the runs ought to result in some- thing noteworthy. A letter reeived by one of the 'Varsity men two 'days ago from a friend on the Cornell squad stated that the Easterners were planning some surprises for the Wol- verines hinting that they had a couple of new men who might prove world beaters. The officials for the contest have been selected as follows: Referee-I. N. Swift, Yale. Starter-Edward Ryan, D. A. C. Announcer-Thos. Bird. Clerk of Course-Sid..W. Millard. Assistant Clerks-V.. C. David, C. E. Hayes, M. M. Uhl, H. W. Holmes. Track Judges-F. L. Ducharme, D. A. C.; Homer L. Johnson, D. A. C.; W. C. Johnson, D. A. C. Field Judges-Theo. - Luce, D. A. C.; Dr. S. C. Gurney, D, A. C.; John C. Lodge, D. A. C. Scorers-Frank L. Rain, J. H. Mad- dock, W. C. Cole, C. M. Dravo. Timers-John Moakley, John Owen, Keene Fitzpatrick. GAME A TIE. The second game of the basket ball series was played off between the juniors and sophomores Friday after- noon. The teams were very evenly matched and both played excellently. The passes were well done and the baskets, although in every case well guarded, thrown very straight. The first half resulted- in a tie. Miss Broadbridge of the sophomore team made the first basket, and Miss Snover on the junior team the sec- ond. The interim of five minutes was occupied by the supporters of both teams in lusty songs and yells. When the teams came on for the second half the play went on more rapidly than before. But when time was called the score was still a tie, Miss Boadbridge having made a sec- ond basket for the sophomores and Miss Shafer another for the juniors. Dr. Snyder announced that two min- utes would be taken to play off the tie. Over anxiety, however, resulted in wild playing, and when time was called again the score still stood 2 to 2. PARTY A SUCCESS. The junar literary party Thursday night was a pleasant success. About 40 couples were in attendance. Dur- ing the evening members of the Glee Club sang rousing songs for .the splendid entertainment of the guests. DR. PAUL ERICK. WISCONSIN WINS. PEACE CONFERENCE.
