PRICS FIVE OR FRESH DEFEAT TEAM ON EVE OF BIG GAMES Yearlings 'Shut Out Varsity Yesterday In Final Practice Before Two Tilts With Syracuse This Week FLYNN LETS DOWN VETERANS WITH BUT ONE SOLID KNOCK Last Year Michigan Won Tirree Out of Four Clashes With the Methodists If Syracuse plays as good ball today as the Michigan All-Fresh put up yes- terday afternoon, and furthermore, if the Varsity persists in the hitting slump which it developed yesterday, the winning streak of the Wolverine nine is due for a sudden stop. As .Coach Lundgren is still out of town the pitcher for today's game is uncertain. Quaintance or Ferguson are likely to start, according to the ro- tation plan used so far this year, leav- ing Sisler and Baribeau for Saturday. Last year Michigan took three of the four games series from the Meth- odists, losing the first one by a 5 to 1 score when Rogers broke his leg slid- ing to second. The other scores were: 14 to 1, 15 to 1, and 10 to 8. A young man by the name of Flynn stepped unheralded' into the pitching box for Lavans' squad yesterday, and most effectively spiked the big guns of the Maize and Blue battle front. At the end of the six inning fray the Var- sfty were on the small end of a 3 to 0 count. Michigan's scoring machine was nothing but a pile of scrap iron after Flynn got through with it; and Messrs. Niemann and McConahy tore several large holes in the defensive armour of the regulars. The Varsity bench yesterday was aboui as cheerful as a last year's bird's nest after a hard rain. The young- sters added insult to Injury by pulling off the same play which the Varsity had been practicing all afternoon, working the hit and run maneuver with marked success. The yearlings dutfielded the Varsity, playing air-tight ball while the regu- lars made three costly errors. Base running was the only department in which the youngsters appeared weak, but they excelled the Varsity even here, stealing the only two bases.. Baker singled in the second round, with one down, but never got further than first base, and not another Varsi- ty runner appeared on the paths. Af- ter the yearlings had accumulated their neat lead, Captain Sisler took the mound. He held the youngsters safe, as did Soddy, who followed him; but meanwhile Flynn mowed the vet- erans down in one-two-three order. Although the coaches raved and swore, pleadings were in vain, and the Varsity was compelled to accept a dose of their own medicine; as shut- out scores still remain the spring fashion on Ferry field. "Bill" Davidson, who started, was hit hard in the first round. McConahy and Niemann both contributed triples to the festivities, but foolish baserun- ning kept the total to one run. In the second round the Varsity staged a charity burlesque, McQueen, Howard and Baer being the stars. A sacrifice hit by Taylor and Johnson's single, with the comedy of errors, counted two runs. In the third round both Niemann and Lavans singled, but although the freshmen runners reached third and second with but one out, they were unable to score, as Davidson struck (Continued on page 4) EVENTS FOR TODAY Varsity band concert, Iill auditorium, 8:00 o'clock.1 President Harry B.
