Stanford will stop off here en route to the eastern intercollegiates, which will be held in, Cambridge, Mass., a week from the date of the meeting be- tween Farrell's hopefuls and Moul- ton's squad. Saturday's competition will be the initial appearance that Stanford has made at Ann Arbor in a dual track meet since records have been kept by the athletic association. The coast men used to take part in the western intercollegiates of the old days, but never succeeded in taking the measure of the Maize and Blue. For the past few years, at intervals, the far west crners have been sending teams to compete in the eastern intercollegi- ates, but owing to the great distance that the coast men have to come for this event, they have been handicap- ped by the inability to send but few men. Likewise the climate of the eastern cities seems to have been against them and consequently they have never been a serious contender for first honors. This year the Palo Alto school is sending a large representation for such a distance. It is expected that they will have at least a dozen ath- letes on the field Saturday afternoon. and these athletes are of the type that Coach Moulton considers to be of in- tercollegiate calibre. The visitors will have at least one man in each event, and the entry in each event is said to be a blue ribbon performer. One disadvantage which will handi- cap the westerners tremendously is the scarcity of men which they can enter in each event. Even should the* athlete in question earn a first place in his event, the second and third places that the Varsity will be able to pick up can still prevent the Stan- ford boys licking the Maize and Blue. From the showing that several of "Steve's" men exhibited in the annual Varsity meet of the past week, it is a certainty that several fast marks are going to be established. Carroll did 4:24 3-5 in the mile, and one watch caught him in three seconds faster time. The miler did this without the kind of competition that is conducive to fast time. Ufer tied the Ferry field record of 1 minute, 57 3-5 seconds, with Murphy on his heels, and it dis by no means out of the question that he may better his time if conditions are good when this number is announced.

MAY DROP FRESH-SOPH RACES Small Turnout at Trials for Relay Men to Run Saturday So far not a sophomore and only 9 freshmen have tried out for the re- lay races which will be held Saturday morning before the push ball contest. There have always been three races between the two lower classes, 16 men running on each team. The class win- ning two of the races receives a point toward the decision for the total of the games. If more men do not show a willingness to support Michigan traditions, this event will have to be dropped. It is to be hoped that at least one hundred men from each class will appear for trials, which have been extended to include Wednesday and Thursday afternoons from 3:30 to 5:30 o'clock. Trials will also be held this afternoon at Ferry field. Hold Interclass Track Meet May 24 The interclass track meet to be staged on May 24, will include only such men who have not won points in the Varsity meet, or on All-Fresh teams. Four teams will be entered, representative of the four classes. Two Bucks buys a featherweight Leghorn for Straw Hat Day tomorrow. Davis, 119 S.

The event is scheduled for May 31 and June 1. The first day will see the preliminaries, and the second day will be devoted entirely to finals. Only such men who have never tak- en part in any Varsity meets, and ex- cepting those who hold lockers at the club-house, will be allowed to com- pete in the event. The following events will be covered: One-mile run, shot put, high jump, 100-yard dash, 120-yard low hurdles. Each entrant will be required to take part in every event, and the point system will be used in determining the winners. Gen- eral proficiency in all events will re- ceive a higher mark than exceptional proficiency in one or two events, and lack of ability in others. The first prize will be a gold watch, and other prizes of a comparative val-: ue will be awarded for the other places.
