Ferry Field By JEFF LIEBSTER Michigan plays _host to the Big Ten Track and Field Cham- pionship Meet beginning this afternoon. The action is sched- uled to commence at 4:00 at Ferry Field, after a ceremony highlighted by the presence of former Olympic champion Jesse Owens. Top performers from around the conference who were ex- pected to challenge many of the existing records on the fast Tartan track surface, may be hampered by poor conditions. Mother Nature has promised us rain for today, and a wet track is not conducive to top per- formances. Michigan's premier perform- er, co-captain Kim Rowe, will be making his final appearance e ed at Ferry, running in the 440 and anchoring the finetMichigan who broke mile relay team, which has won time home the last two outdoor titles.

Adams, also a senior, has won the last two indoor shot put today titles and last year's outdoor discus honors in conference competition. Be is one of the many fine athletes competing this weekend with an excellent shot at shattering a Big Ten standard. The activities carry over to Saturday at 1 p.m. at which time most of the finals of each event will be held. Tickets for the meet will be available for $3.00 per day for reserved seats, or $5.00 for both days. General admision in also offered for $2.50 per day.

Hardship rule eased for Big Ten athletes By The Associated Press CHICAGO-The Big Ten hard- ship rule for football players was eased Wednesday to allow an athlete injured before the third game of the season to have an extra year of eligibility. The rule, altered at the Big Ten spring meeting, previously allowed a player another year only if he was hurt in the first game of the season. Wayne Duke, Big Ten com- missioner, noted that the old rule was adopted when confer- ence teams played only seven or eight games. Most now play 11 a season. Conference members a 1 s o voted to return to two-man offi- ciating crews next season. The Big Ten went to three-man crews in 1967, but coaches have been complaining that too many penalties are being called. The basketball playoff proce- dure in case of a three-way tie also was revised. A coin flip will determine which two of the three teams will meet in the opening round of the playoffs to determine which school will represent the league at the NCAA tourney. The winner of that match meets the third team for the right to compete in the tourney. Previously the team that last represented the Big Ten in the tournament was automatically eliminated. In other actions, the Big Ten approved a trip to Japan in July for the Wisconsin basketball team and agreed to allow the Ohio State gymnastics team to compete in Ge rm a ny next month.
