The Michigan Daily Vol. XXIV, No. 162. ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SUNNDAY, MAY 17, 1914. PRICE FIVE CENTS VARSITY WIPE FARMER SLATE, PARTLY CLEAN Michigan Shuts Out Aggie Nine and Pounds Dodge, Former Victor, For Eleven Hits and Six Runs FERGUS# (ETS OUT OF TWO HOLES AND SMOTHERS RALLY Lundgren's Men Work Double Squeeze in Ninth, When Five Hits Net Four Runs Revenge is sweet! The Wolverine, tracked to his lair and soundly beaten by the Farmers last fall, yesterday turned the tables, penetrating to the heart of the agri- cultural regions and playing havoc with the crop of athletes on which the Farmers had based their hopes for continued prosperity. The score- Michigan 6, M. A. C. 0. But there was more than the partial erasure of a gridiron defeat in yester- day's triumph, for the Aggie pitcher who was so carefully groomed to hum- ble the Wolverines had twice turned the trick two seasons ago. Last year the Varsity thrice humbled the Farmer, but Captain Bell's men had no opportu- nity to revenge themselves on Mr. Dodge. Saturday, however, the port side art- ist, famed in agricultural history for taming the Wolverines, was literally battered to pieces. Eleven tines the Michigan batters landed on his slants for safe hits, and only reckless base running kept the count down. When the game started the bleachers! were in a flutter of excitement won- dering why Michigan was not going to pitch, Sisler in s important a contest, but before the contest was over the' home crowd was thoroughly supplied with reasons. i Ferguson, Lundgren's selection for; yesterday, got himself in two bad holesI early in the game. In fact, the cheer- ing and band seemed justified for a while, but as time went on "Fergy", gradually improved, until at the end of the game he had the Aggies com- pletely at his mercy. He yielded buti four hits. There were just two bad innings for the Michigan twirler, but as these were the first and fourth it looked like a; real ball game for some time. In all the other rounds but three Aggie bat- ters came to the plate. Michigan, on the other hand, went down in one-two- thre order for the first three rounds. After Michigan was retired in the first, Chilton singled to start the Ag- gie attack, Fick sacrificed him to sec- ond, and Ferguson walked Fuller, and advanced both runners on a balk. WithI men on third and. second and one out things did not look auspicious for the Wolverines, but Hughitt camped underI Dodge's foul and Baer threw out L. Chilton on a bunt. There was no thrill In the second,1 but in the third Michigan pulled somec weird playing. Howard hit with one down. McQueen lined to right field, Howard scoring, but ground rules were applied, and Howard was called back to third and McQueen sent back to sec- ond. Sisler lifted a perfect sacrifice fly to left, but Howard neglected to hold his base until the ball was caught, and was easily retired at the plate., - In the fourth the Aggies got nasty again, and coming so soon after theI Michigan billiard exhibition, things looked dark. Fuller walked and took third on Dodge's single. Howard's play evidently appealed to Fuller, how- ever, and the latter proceeded to assas- (Continued on page 6.)

The team leaves with a record of 15 intercolle- giate victories to one solitary defeat, and among the scatps hanging at the Wolverine belt are eight shut-out bat- tles. Michigan has scored 112 runs to 26 foi- her opponents this year, and in the last 81 innings but three scores have been made at her expense. The Varsity, fourteen players strong, will leave this evening at 9:30 o'clock via the 'Michigan Central; and a mon- ster send-off is being planned by the students, who are looking for the team to continue its run of 11 straight vic- tories. The schedule for the trip, however, is a difficult one, and several of the strongest teams in the east will be met. The Michigan dates follow: Monday, May 18-Syracuse. Tuesday, May 19-Syracuse. Wednesday, May 20-Cornell. Thursday, May 21-Princeton. Friday, May 22-Swarthmore. Saturday, May 23-Pennsylvania. Coach Lundgren last night selected the men whom he will take east.

The team will leave in a spe- cial sleeper, which will be ready at 9:00 o'clock, and attached later to the 9:30 train. FIRST MICHIGANENSIANS SHOULD APPEAR TOMORROW As the printers of the 1914 Mich- iganensian have reported no further delay, it is probable that the yearbook will be offered to the campus tomor- row morning. Managing Editor J. 1. Lippincott, '14, telegraphed yesterday afternoon in order to obtain definite in- formation as to the shipment of the books, but up to late' last night it could not be ascertained whether or not he had received an answer. cop o ag to z score. j The contests yesterday morning were interesting, but not spectacular. The first soph runner in the first relay race started ahead of his verdant rival, and for every foot of the way during the three races, the fresh runners were behind. Officials at first thought that only 15 sophs had run in the first race, but after a discussion, the race was officially awardled to the second year men. Outnumbered by about 200 the 300 near juniors put up a stubborn fight in the pushball combat, and lost only because the ball wash in their territory when Referee Miller Pontius fired the closing shot.

CLOSING CONCERT SCORES SUCCESS Artists Appear to Advantage in Their Different Roles; Chorus Work .Lacks Volume ORGAN EXECUTION IS BRILLIANT As a fitting final climax to a brilliant series of concerts, Elgar's "Caracta- cus," was given last night for the sec- ond time in the history of Ann Arbor May festivals. The score bristles with bold, enervating melodies, and interest is constantly kept alive by its whole- some dramatic energy, its brilliant climaxes and contrasts, and by a well- planned succession of soli, duets, trios, and chorus numbers.- Miss Florence Hinkle, sang the role' of Elgen, with a voice of remarkable clarity and sweetness, and yet an abundance of power. The part of Car- actacus was taken by Rein ald Werren- rath. While Mr. Werrenrath's voice is of a splendid rich quality, it lacked requisite power for the role. Henri Scott, in a triple role, sang with much elegance, poise, and dramatic force. Lambert Murphy, as Orbin, gave a very pleasing interpretation. While as a whole the work of the chorus was commendable, it lacked a sense of security, and failed to give out the volume of tone which the many climaxes of the work demand. In the afternoon concert, Mr. Earl Moore, presented the "Great G minor Fugue" by Bach, and the Sixth Sym- phony of Widor. These were executei (Continued on page 6.) RECKLESS DRIVER INJURES STUDENT C. R. Osborne, '16, Sustains Sprained Ankle and Severe Nervous Shock An automobile, bearing the number, Mich. 15384, while coming down south State street yesterday afternoon after the Syracuse track meet,'attempted toa turn east up Hill street through the crowds of people returning from the mueet, and struck C. R. Osborne, '16, straining his ankle and giving him. a severe nervous shock, and at the same; time endangering the lives of severall men and women who were on the crossing. The action of the driver of the car is reported by witnesses to have been deplorable. He brought his machine to a stop several yards from the cross- ing, and then, after looking out and seeing that the crowd had helped his victim to his feet, drove up Hill street paying no attention to the repeated calls from those present asking that he take the injured man to his home. .E From First Event, Michiganders £giu to Pile Up Huge Total Against Feeble Efforts of Methodists JANSEN LOWERS HAFF'S MARK IN 880 BATTLE WITH TAYLOR Ufer Makes Great Vinish in Mile Run Nosing Out Plummer in Last Few Yards Michigan's track athletes "came back" from the heavy Cornell defeat, by trouncing Syracuse with a landslide of points that resulted in a score of 85 to 35, yesterday afternoon on Ferry field. Races won by hairbreadth mar- gins, and fast time characterized the meet. From the outset the tide of victory flowed steadily toward the Wolverine, and when the mile relay rang the cur- tain on the slaughter, eleven firsts, and slams in two events, capped the tri- umph. Bond won the century sprint, but the judges were unable to see daylight be- tween him and "Howdy" Seward, while Smith Followed a yard behind with a big gap between him and Bowser, the much touted colored filer from the East. In the 220 yard dash, Bond and Seward decided to lay down the tom- hawk between them and ended in a dead heat. True to his antebellum prediction, Trainer Farrell sprang a bagful of sur- prises yesterday. The first was flashed when Plummer, an erstwhile quarter miler, led the field in the mile for three laps by a 20 yard distance. Ufer with a burst of speed and evidence of en- durance that brought the fans to their feet, swung up from behind on the home stretch, and nosed this latest find out of first place by a margin of indhes. The second surprise was unleashed when Murphy swept into view from be- hind the stands with the quarter mile bunch, and kept in the lead with Ruli- son the Methodist crack, until the last few yards, when he was forced to ac- cept a second. Jansen won the half mile from Tay- lor, another Syracuse star, "although he had to break the Varsity record to do it. His time of 1 minute 57 3-5 sec- onds is 1-5 of a second slower than the mark made by Speiden of Cornell two weeks back, but tops the record form- erly held by Haff, last year's track captain, by 1-5 of a second. Smith vindicated Trainer Farrell's judgment in switching him from the two twenty dash, by breaking the tape before Delling of Syracuse had hurled the last obstacle. Brown proved him- self a "come back" in the way of track performances yesterday afternoon. This former half mile star has not been able to run in his old 'form all year, but changed to the broad jump and found his bent there, as was shown by the jump of 22 feet 1 inch which gave him first honors. In the pole vault Cross upset the dope by winning a first, and Phelps and Quail did the same in the shot and hammer by capturing, second and third. The shot put was a slam for the Mich- iganders, and in the hammer Kohler made the best throw he has to his cred- it for the season. The mile relay furnished a finish to the meet as exciting as the beginning, when Murphy who carried the baton last for Michigan, came up from behind the Methodist runner, and nailed the last event to the Wolverine flag. 100 yard dash-Bond (M) first, Sew- (Continued on page 6.)
