"Scotty," the land lubbering sailor,

about the country, visiting college and
university cities, always carrying 50

not work loose in ten minutes. Scotty
thinks his Ann Arbor visit will be fin-

Two more matches in the final round
of singles in the handball tourna-

JTED won two of three sets from Werum,
8-15, 17-11, and 17-13, and George for-

The Standing of players in the singles:

Two new men, Kurtz and Hughes,
will aid Seward, Bond and Smith in
the 35 yard dash. Klopfer, Cohn and
Larson are the recruits in the hirdles,
who will run with Armstrong. Larson
has been running in the dashes all
season, and with his speed should bol-
ster up the weakness in Michigan's
offense at this point.
Griest has been entered in the quar-
ter mile, as well as the half mile and
the high jump. Trainer Farrell has
not yet decided in which run he will
place this versatile athlete, but he is
sure to appear in the high jump at any
rate. This event has been the weakest
spot of the Michigan team all year,
and although there are several other
men entered, they are all green at the
competition and are not expected to
win points.
Captain Kohler will have team-
mates in the shot put for the first time
this year. Quinn, the football man,
will compete Saturday night, and is
expected to land a place. Phelps, a
freshman star last year, has been com-
ing out for the last week, and will also
be entered here.
Contestants must secure contest-
ant's tickets Saturday afternoon at the
athletic association office to be admit-
ted to Waterman gym on the night of
the meet.

Possibly the closest competition is
on the infield. With four veterans on

getting a regular berth. Baker, the
fastest fielder on the squad, has a

McQueen works well with his team

but the veteran Howard undoubtedly

ham has been showing the best form
of any of the recruit infielders, usual-
ly appearing on "Tommie's" corner at
third.
Shivel reported for the first time yes-

WMUNICATION
n Daily assumes no re-
for sentiments express-
Editor, The Michigan Daily:-
Professor Allen, in an interesting
alk on Turkey in Newberry hall a
reek ago Wednesday, made the state-
nent that he would rather trust a
Turk than a Greek or an American.
Professor Allen only recently return-
4 from Constantinople, where he
pent two years to establish the engi-
ieering department of Roberts College.
'his circumstance, coupled with the
act that the statement comes from
.o less a personality than Professor
Allen himself obliges me to remind his
elect audience, as well as himself,
ow his statement may lack ample
ustification, and do injustice to two
ther races, while attempting to ap-.
reciate a personal hospitality tender-
d him by some Turks.
And then, the atrocious massacres
f hundreds of thousands of Ameri-
ans, and as many Greeks and Bul-
arlans and all other races, which
ere under Turkish yoke in the past,
gan yesterday with two matches
which resulted as follows: McQueen
and Werum beat Potts and Burke,'
19-2 and 19-4; and Butler and Thom-
as defeated Martin and Pfeiffer, 15-15
and 15-18. The winners had a two
point handicap.

Graham, Robinson and Dwyer have
another advantage over the other in-
field recruits, in that they are also out-
fielders; and at least two of these men
are almost' sure to be on the Dixie
list. Sheehy, the only veteran gard-
ener, has been working out with the
infield squad, and is sure of his berth.
