Sisler Strikes Out 20 Men Altogether,;
While Turnure Allows
but Six Hits
*Between showers Michigan and Syr-
acuse played 12 and a fraction innings
of real baseball, to a 2 to 2 tie, Sisler
.holding the Orangemen to two runs
while his team-mates were unable to
earn a single score. The two scores
registered by Coach Lundgren's boys
were presented to them by the Syra-
cuse contingent on errors.
Michigan opened the game by put-
ting Sheehy on bases with a' present
from Turnure. McQueen hit safely,
putting Sheehy on second. An error
by Hamilton and one by Turnure al-
lowed Sheehy to take home. Sheehy
did the rest f Michigan's scoring in
the third when he reached second on
errors, and took third on a play which
put McQueen out at first. Brandell's
hit sent Sheehy home for Michigan's
last score of the day.
The Syracuse sores were bunched
in the fifth inning, when Travis reach-
ed first fi a hit, taking second on a
sacrifice hit by Morgan. Turnure
struck out, 'and Travis and Rafter
crossed the plate on the latter's home
run hit to deep left, tying the score
at 2 to 2.
Turnure pitched good ball pulling
himself out of several hard holes, and
allowing the Wolverines but six hits in
the 12 innings, and striking out eight
of th Michigan batters. The pitching
honors were a little in favor of Sisler,
however, the Michigan hitter allowing
an equal pumber of hits, but striking
out 20 Orangemen.
Sigler had to pitch yesterday's game
all by himself, the batting of the Wol-
verines being a negative quantity,
when any hit was needed to put Mich-
igan in a spot in-the sun. Besides strik-
ing out nearly half of the men that
faced him, Sisler was the beginning
of a pretty double play in the ninth,
when with a man on first Hamilton
bunted in that direction, The ball
went hIgh, but apparently was a saei
sacriice for the advancement of thej
baserunner. Sisler made a diving1
catch of the pop-up bunt, and, throw-
ing to first, caught the runner off.
MichIgan's standing with Syracuse
Is now about flfty-fifty, the two games
so far played having been tied in over-
time contests. With the advantage all
in favor of the Orangemen, the next1
game takes place at Syracuse May 17.
One game on the day following closes
the series with the Methodists, and ifd
precedent indicates anything the final
standing of the teams will be what it1
is now.'

Carroll Noses Out Ufer for 880-Yard
..ash in Prettiest Race
During Day
CARTER FIELD, NOTRE DAME,
May 8.-Under the most disadvantag-
eous weather conditions possible, the
Michigan track team defeated Notre
Dame here today, 75 2-3 to 50 1-3.
According to Coach Farrell, it was
the worst day in the history of his
track experience. Much of the meet
was run off in the rain, and a cold
north wind, blowing directly down the
stretch, made anything even remotely
resembling fast time impossible. 'The
track was a new one, and in terrible
shape due to the rain and a clay bot-
tom
Fearful lest things might grow mon-
otonous in the steady rain, the weath-
er man shifted the setting for the 100
yard dash, and the sprinters were
started in a bad hail storm. Captain
Smith ploughed through the elements
against the wind, and won the event
in 10 3-5 with Harold O'Brien right
on his heels, the highly touted Hardy
of Notre Dame finished third.
The only track event in which Mich-
igan failed to land a first was the,
440. Welsh, the Notre Dame entrant,
proved to be a big powerful runner,,
and he developed into a better mud
horse than either Fontana or Hunt-
ington, winning with a burst of speed
at the finish.
First the field events went Notrej
Dame's way with the exception 6f1
the pole vault and shot put, Wilson
and Cecil Cross taking firsts in their
respective events.
One of the prettiest races of the day
was the 880 yard dash, Carroll justj
nosing out Ufer at the tape. The badt
weather conditions favored "Eddie"1
more than they did "Jo," the sopho-
more winning from his teammate in al
close finish. The time of 2:02 3-5 was1

ALL-FRESH LOSE TO DETROIT1
NINE WITH SCORE OF . TO 1,
Rain and Poor Head-Work Factors int
Defeat; Game Called at 1
End of Eighth
Rain and poor head-work combinedt
allowed the University of Detroit nine
to defeat the All-Fresh at Detroit yes-
terday. The game, which ended withl
the score 5 to 1 in favor of Detroit,
was called at the end of the eigth
inning.
Andrus, who twirled seven innings,
for the freshmen, was unable to con-
trol the ball because of the rain. He1
was succeeded in the last inning byl
Miller. The slippery field was respon-
sible for many errors, both on the
part of the Michigan yearlings and1
the Detroit team. Four of the colleg-
ians' runs were due in a large degree4
to the playing conditions.
The freshmen had many opportu-r
nities for scores of which they did not
take advantage. In the sixth inning,t
with the score two to one against
them, Hughitt's men had runners on
second and third, with but one out,
when Field hit into a double play.-
In both the first and second innings,
men were advanced to third, butj
could get no farther.j
The score by innings and the bat-
teries follow:
"Emerson, if living today, would de-
nounce the world's lack of respect
for the supremacy of law, and its
stinted sense of moral obligation in
the affairs of today, such as the Lusi-
tania disaster," said Prof. Bliss Perry,
former editor of The Atlantic Month-
ly, and now at Harvard university, in
his Phi Beta Kappa address last eve-
ning, in Sarah Caswell Angell hall.
Professor Perry recalled the Phi Beta
Kappa address delivered by Ralph
Waldo Emerson at Cambridge in 1837,
on "The American Scholar."
In dealing with his theme, Profes-
sor Perry took his audience back to
the time and place of the Emerson
address, and by little personal com-
ments on the supposed feelings and
action of the notable congregation as-
sembled, the audience of last eve-
ning was able to mentally draw a
picture of the gathering so long ago.
Emerson, up to the time of that ad-
dress, was practically unknown, but
his magnificient talk on "The Ameri-
can Scholar," a subject .much used
and hackneyed by former speakers,
placed him in prominence. Holmes
characterized it as the "intellectual
'declaration of independence," while
Russell Carlyle made the comment
that it "contained a whole world of
thought."
Professor Perry, during the course
of his address, held the attention of
his audience perfectly, by the well-
rounded sentences which he used, and
the manner in which he injected his
personality into the paper. Preced-
ing the public address by Professor
Perry, the local chapter of Phi Beta
Kappa held a formal reception and
banquet in the parlours of Barbour
gymnasium. Professor Perry was the
guest of honor at this banquet, which
was given in honor' af the recent init-
iates into the society. . Prof. A. G.
Canfield, the retiring president .of the
local chapter, responded to a toast
after the banquet, as did Prof. M. L.
D'Ooge. Vera Burridge and Clarence
Goshorn gave short talks, as repre-
sentatives of the incoming initiates.
Prof. 1. L. Sharfman to Speak Tonight
Prof. I. L. Sharfman, of the econom-
ics department, will speak to the Me-
norah society on, "The Jews and the-
War," at 8:00 o'clock tonight in New-
berry hall. Mr. Samuel Strauss of the'
New York Times, who was to have'
been the speaker this evening, wireI
that unforeseen developments made: it
impossible for him to come to Ann Ar-
bor. It is thought that the sinking r
the Lusitania may have effected mi
ealier plans.
Today Set Aside as "Mother's Day"
Governor Woodbridge N. Ferris of
this state has, by specie, procamation,
set aside today for the sp cial observ-
ance of "Mother's DaDy." It is the
custom to wear any favorite flower if
the mother is alive, or w hite if she is
dead. The observation rjf this day has
increased rapidly on th e campus with-
in recent years.
Every graduate of the Univer-
sity of Michigan, and all who
have attended its courses, vill
be given an opportunity during
the year 1915 to acknowledge,
and in a measure repay, the debt
which he owes his Alma Mater.'
The Michigan Union building
is a magnificent project and one
that will mean much to the Uni-
versity. The State of Michigan
has done well in fostering and
supporting the University, but
private benefaction has, with
few exceptions, been almost en-
tirely lacking. Recent generous
donations from private sources
mark, it is to be hoped, a new
turn of affairs. The erection by
general subscription of a great
central place for students and
returning alumni will afford ev-
ery Michigan man an opportun-
ity to lend impetus to this move-
ment, and will cement the union
which every student has with his
college and with his past. The
execution of the present plan
will also mark a new era by set-
ting an architectural standard
at Ann Arbor which has hereto-
fore been entirely lacking.
The entire project deserves
enthusiastic support, and our
Committee assures you that De-
troit can be counted upon to do
its full share.

Committee.

Favorite Judge Famous for Instilling
"Peop at.Football Smokers
Speaks Wednesday
TO LAY CAMPAIGN FOUNDATIONS
Hon. Robert F. Thompson, '92L, of
Canandatigua, N. Y., will be the chief
alunui speaker at the big Michigan
Union mass meeting, in Hill auditori-
um, Wednesday 'night. Word to this
effect has just been received. Present
indi cations point to the most brilliant'
array of talent that has ever graced
the stage of the large auditorium, with
I K. Pond, President-Emeritus Angell
and President Hutchins and others in
the list of speakers.
'Mr. Thompson is a judge. But this
does not prevent him from being the
"'peppiest" speaker who ever sent a
crowd wild with enthusiasm at. a local
football smoker. He attended the Un-
ion function in 1913, and held his au-
dience with glowing depiction and
striking stories for the larger part of
:an hour. Locally he is rated as a top-
notch favorite with college men.
Wednesday's meeting, according to
the committee in charge, has been ar-
ranged in order to acquaint the stu-
dent body with the Union more inti-
mately. The committee which is to
campaign for the million-dollar club-
house, realizes that alumni will ask
students as to the workings of the
Union, and they want every man on
the campus to be loaded up with infor-
mation to meet the inquiries.
No subscriptions will be asked for
or received at the meeting. Its pur-
pose is not to raise money, but to lay
the foundation for the summer's cam-
paign. There will be no admission
charge, and every male member of
the student body will be welcome. The
management hopes to fill the hall for
the affair.

LAWRENCE GAME NOT ASSURI
Director Bartelme Says Michigan 31
Play Wisconsin Team
Athletic Director Bartelme annour
ed yesterday afternoon that the sch(
uling of a game with Lawrence c
lege, in Wisconsin, reported in nev
paper dispatches, was by no mea
certain. About a month ago seve
letters were sent out to smaller c
leges throughout the country ask'
if they would care to open negotiatio
for the first or second mid-week d
on Michigan's football schedule, a
Lawrence was merely one of the
communicated with.
It is the belief that the newspa:
announcement of athletic relations
tween Lawrence and Michigan v
either exaggerated or misunderste
It is probable that negotiations. '
be begun between the two institutic
and a Lawrence date on the Michip
schedule may result.
Lawrence would be a valuable ga
for the Wolverines, since it would
the only game that Michigan wo
have with a team which has Wisc
sin on its schedule. The opening of
lations between the two instituti
would give a standard of compari
between Michigan and the confere
jteam.
