noon on Paths on Which Meet
Is to Be Held
Captain Smith, Carroll, Donnelly,
Ufer, Fox and Murphy, accompanied
by Coach Farrell, will leave for the
Drake relays at Des Moines this aft-
ernoon at 1:17 o'clock on the Michi-
gan Central. The party is expected
to arrive in the Iowa metropolis to-
morrow morning.
Coach Farrell is still undecided
whether he will send his men over
the two-mile distance, or over the
longer route. The coach said yester-
day that it all depends upon what sort
of a day it is when the men are called
to the track. If it is such a day as it
was when "Steve" made the statement,
he expects to send them over the short-
er distance, otherwise he will use
them against the four-mile field.
In either race, "Cap" Murphy will
undoubtedly have his hands upon the
baton before any of the other Maize
and Blue wearers get a chance at it.
Donnelly will probably relieve "Cap"
of his burden, with Ufer holding down
the track as Michigan's third man.
"Eddie" Carroll will follow Ufer and
will run last.
. All the men will take to the cinder
paths upon which their events will
be held tomorrow afternoon in order
that they may become acclimated to
the prevailing conditions before the
day of the meet.
The rest of the members of the track
team will practice as usual during the
absence of the coach and thqle men
who are to accompany him to the
battle ground.
Farrell and his half-dozen men are
booked to arrive home from Des Moines
on Sunday afternoon.

('0och McGinnis Plags First Cvt for
7 Tomorrow; Yearlings Show
Good Material
Coach "Mac" McGinnis will expect
his yearling baseball squad n fort
on South Ferry Field this a ternoon,
rain or shine, for the mentor expects
to get a definite line on all oic the men
prior to the first cut of the season.
This will probably take place tomor-
row. The coach will undoubtedly
have more or less difficulty in deciding
just which men to keep, for there is
much real talent among the freshmen
this year, but in order to get in shape
for the first game with Albion college
which comes a week from Saturday,
"Mac" will have to commence the
elimination process in short order.
This year's squad promises much
and from the few practices held so
far McGinnis believes he will have a
good team.
'BUZZ' CATLETT TO DIRECT WORK
OF FRESH TRACK REST OF WEEK
During the absence of Coach Farrell
from Ferry Field for the remainder of
the week, the tryouts for the All-
Fresh track outfit will be under the
direction of "Buzz" Catlett.
All candidates may now work on
the outdoor course, as the jumping pits
are in readiness, and the high jump
and pole vaulting apparatus have been
removed from Waterman gymnasium
to Ferry Field.
. This is the first chance which the
freshmen have had to avail themselves
of any jumping pits, and it is ex-
pected that a number of new men will
take advantage of the fact that they
may get on the field early in the
outdoor season.

All-Fresh Baseball Candidate Led
Grand Rapids City League Slug-

Among the 60 odd candidates who
reported for practice on the All-Fresh
squad at South Ferry Field, the one
who has probably the best record in
amateur sporting circles is Kirchgess-
ner, the leading batsman of last sea-
son's interclass indoor baseball league.
For the past two seasons, Kirchgess-.
ner has led the City league in Grand
Rapids, the nearest batsman being

of
Varsity football coach Fielding H.
Yost took personal charge of the
spring training squad yesterday at the
second workout or the early season.
When the coatb arrived at Ferry Field
yesterday afternoon there was not a
man qn the field in uniform. Inside of
15 minutes he had personally called
up a number of men and shortly after
this little attention a good-sized squad
reported for practice.
Practice consisted mainly in pass-
ing the ball and in a running drill
and in the kind of work conducive to
hard exercise. Several rather "hefty"
boys were noticed on the field and
some surprising figures in avoirdupois
were disclosed on inquiry.
Captain Maulbetsch has not as yet
donned his suit but he appeared on
the field to watch activities. Rehor
reported in citizen's togs during the
afternoon, but neither he nor "Pat"
Smith put on a uniform. With Nie-
mann and Dunne occupied with base-
ball, practically none of the old guard'
were out for work. Nearly all of the,
men who were out the first day were
again in harness yesterday, last fall's.

SCHOOLS RECEIVE BOOKLETS
Prospectus Sent Participants in Inter-
scholastic Meet
Interscholastic Manager Ray Mills
and his small army of assistants were
busy yesterday mailing a prospectus
to each school which has been invited
to participate in the 18th annual inter-
scholastic meet to be staged on Fer-
ry Field Friday and Saturday, June
2 and 3.
The little booklet describing the
meet is put up in an attractive manner
and is bound to stimulate interest
among all high schools and prepara-
tory schools in the country having
track teams.
With each prospectus mailed was
included an entry blank, which is to
be filled out at once so as to be in
the hands of the Interscholastic Mana-
ger before May 18.
While the entry list to date is close
to the half-century mark, it is the

Baseball Manager Sidney T. St4
assumed the role of official scorer
all-around statistician during
I
the
southern trip and acting in his official
capacity, Mr. Steen has compiled the,
batting and fielding averages of the
Michigan baseball squad for the
southern trip.
Mr. Steen's efforts in a mathematical
way disclose the fact that Captain
George Labadie is topping the Wolver-
ine hitters with the grand average of
.370. Brandell follows the captain with
the creditable mark of .333. "Morry"
Dunne is the only other Wolverine
swatter in the select .300 circle yet,
Dunne's figure standing at .320.
Walterhouse and "Billy" Niemann
stand next in the list, the shortstop
hitting .272 while Niemann shows .259
as the result of his efforts in the
south. Ohlmacher was the only Michi-
gan twirler to secure a safety and he
did himself proud by slamming out a
couple, which gives him a mark of
.250.
The team batting average was only
.231, which is far below the team
average of a year ago when the entire
squad returned with a .300 average.
However, Coach Lundgren stated that
'the hitting of his men has been satis-
factory, and that they have scored
enough runs in every game that they
have played to win the average game.
Captain George Labadie and Brandell
are the leading extra base hitters. La-
badie poled a double and triple in
one game, and Brandell contributed a
homer and three bagger all in one
contest.
The complete batting and fielding
averages follow:
nearly 25 points behind him.
During spring vacation, Kirchgess-
ner went down to work out with the
Grand Rapids team of the Central
league, and while playing with the
second team, he tripled with the bases
loaded, and brought in two runs him-
self, thus defeating the leaguers by a
score of 6-1.-
It is said by those on the inside
that Kirchkessner has had offers from
the Louisville team of the American
Association, and several minor induce-
ments from lesser teams. He is an
all-round player, often doing the re-
ceiving part of the battery work, but
he is out for the outfield on the All-
Fresh team.
Basketball Made Major Sport at Penn
Philadelphia, April 19.-Basketball
was raised to major sport rank at
the regular meeting of the board of
directors of the University of Pennsyl-
vania Athletic. association. Agitation
started three years ago in favor of the
adoption of this step, culminated yes-
terday in the board's favorable vote.
Columbia j's the only other eastern
university that ranks basketball as a
major sport.

near future.
