Upsetting the predictions of a 1914 BISHOP W ILLIAMS
victory in a walkaway, the 1913 aggre-
gation of track stars won out in the
four-cornered Varsity track meet at
Waterman gymnasium last evening,
by the close margin of three points.
The seniors annexed a total score of
33 during the evening's competition,
while the juniors, failing to show in
several of the events in which they
were counted on to take one or more
places, had to remain content with a
total of 30 points.
The seniors and juniors divided
eight firsts on an equal basis, but the
seniors were ortunate enough to take
three extra points in the second and
third class, and thereby the winning
margin. The sophomore and fresh-
men teams failed to take one unquali-
fied first, though the sophomores split
first in the pole vault with the 1914
team, and with both class squads pick-
ing up a second or third wherever pos-
sible, the underclass teams scored a
total of nine points apiece.
The event in which the seniors real-
ly upset the dope was in the 40-yard
low hurdles. "Jimmie" Craig, expect-
ed to enter only in this one event, was
given first place in the meet by most
of the prophets. " Craig entered the
high hurdles, however, and after win-
ning this event, he lost out to "Dave"
Cohn of the 1913 team in the low bar-
rier event. Cohn's time was 5 1-5 sec-
onds.
Mile and 440 to Seniors.
The senior. team scored most heav-
ily in the 440-yard dash and mile run,
in both of which events the 1913 class-
men captured first and second. Sar-
gent's first in the high jump, Laps-
ley's second in the 35-yard dash, and
three points gathered' by Herschel
Smith and "Dave" Cohn in the shot
put, were also large factors in building
up the senior total.
The 35-yard dash was one of the
best events of the evening, although
Seward took the dash in predicted
fashion. With Seward, Lapsley, D.
Cohn and H. L. Smith in the finals, the
race was bound to be a close one.
When the men came down the stretch
to the finish line they were nearly
abreast, and it is doubtful if space
could be seen between them. Seward
was the victor, however, with Laps-
ley a close second and Smith a good
third.
Haff's stellar performance in the
440-yard dash brought out no end of
favorable comment. Though the
Michigan leader was in no danger of
being headed, he exerted himself to
the utmost and finished in the excel-
lent time of 52 1-5 seconds. A great
many supporters believed that Haff
had broken the track record for the
quarter, but investigation brought to
light the fact that Keck made the dis-
tance in 51 4-5 in the Michigan-Cor-
nell meet of March 26, 1910. This fact
did not take away from Haff's bril-
liant performance, however, nor from
the fact that Baier ran a good second.
High Jump is Popular.

round after round of applausefrom
the spectators. Sargent took the event
with the bar at a height of 6 feet, 2
inches, with White clearing 6 feet, 1
inch. Actual measurement from the
mat showed that Sargent's winning
leap was for a height of 5 feet, 11 3-4

Draws Plans.
A clubhouse to serve the -purpose
of a congregating place for all foreign
students in Ann Arbor, and to cater to
their needs, is now an immediate prob-
ability, and the Corda-Fratres Cosmo-
politan clubhouse announces that it is
in a position to push the erection of
such an edifice.
Funds for the purpose are being
raised from several sources. The
Cosmopolitan club alumni are being
canvassed, and it is expected that a
generous response will result. The
international peace societies are deep-
ly interested in the experiment, and
some of the wealthy members have
come forward with aid.
The need of such a clubhouse is be-
lieved to be imperative by all convers-
ant with the situation of the foreign-
ers at Michigan. The house will be
open to all foreign students, whether
members of the Corda-Fratres Cos-
mopolitan club or not, and necessary
assistance will be rendered them. The
Cosmopolitan club, however, will as-
sume the management of the house,
and for this purpose the entire gov-
ernment of the club has been Teorgan-
ized, and busienss and faculty men ad-
mitted to membership on the adminis-
trative board of the club.
Will Offer Varied Menus.
A distinctive feature of the new club
house will be the serving of food pe-
culiar to various nationalities, and
foreign students will be able to ob-
tain their own native dishes at all
times. The dining room will also be
open to Americans.
The various rooms will be decorated
after the fashion of national halls.
Each room of this kind will contain
equipment and furnishing character-
istic of some nation. No dormitories
will be maintained, but the club house
will serve the foreigners much in the
same way that the Michigan Union.
