Michigan's win from Ohio State
Tuesday disposed of the last Confer-
ence team that could claim the cham-
pionship in the event that the Ohio
game and the final one with Illinois
were lost. It was possible for the
Ohio team to tie Michigan by winning
here and taking the two games that
remain for them to play. It was for
this reason that Coach Lundgren sent
Parks, star of the Michigan hurlers,
into the box. e6
Ohio State Fielding Poor
The showing of the players in the
game Tuesday was good, considering
the fact that they did not play against
a much feared team. In the Illinois
game and in the two clashes with
Chicago, the men have had to play at
top speed to win, but the showing of
the Ohioians so far this year did not
warrant a stiff game.
Parks pitched his usual strong
game, but showed that he was not
trying to travel at high speed by al-
lowing the opposing batters four hits.
He kept the bases free from runners,
and the two men that succeeded in get-
ting to second could go no farther.
The number of runs that the Wolver-
ines chase dover in the initial round,'
removed the necessity for scoring and
until Karpus' four base knock in the
sixth inning, with Bowerman on third,
they did not threaten to cross the plate.
Season's First Homer
This was the first home run of the
season on Ferry field, and the second
that the fast third sacker has hit this
year. Bowerman was the star of the
game on the paths, getting three stolen
bases during the encounter. He also
crossed the plate twice, a trick that
permitted to the Michigan outfit, fol-
lowed by three errors, were sufficient
to put three runs over, and win the
game.
Cotter Pitches Well
Cotter was sent in to relieve Kime in
the fourth, and, except for the home
run that Karpus got in the sixth, pre-
vented any scoring. He was in dang-
er most of the time but it. was due to
his teammates rather than any lack
of skill on his part.
As a result of this game the Confer-
ence title is an assured thing for
Michigan. Th'is is the second year that
the baseball team has come across in
the two years that Michigan has been
in the Conference. By the looks of
things at the present, Michigan will
go through the Big Ten season without
a defeat, a record that only two schools
can show in the past eight years.
'21 ENGINEERS ARE
CAMPUS CHAMPIONS
Winning the campus baseball cham-
pionship, the sophomore engineers de-
feated the freshman laws in a ten in-
ning game, 4 to 3.
The contest was scheduled for only
seven innings but Barkell's home run
in the seventh tied the score and forced
the game into extra periods.
With one man on base in the first
inning, Jack Perrin smasehd a liner
into right field and circled the bases
on errors, bringing in two runs for
the lawyers. Another run in the six-
th ended the scoring.
With two out in the sixth the engi-
neers brought two men across the
plate and Barkell's homer in the sev-
enth evened up the tallies.
From this point both teams were on
their toes and fielded closely. Cohn
and Gorman, opposing second basemen
did exceptionally well in the field.
In the engineers' half of the tenth
inning Gorman singled and stole sec-
ond, taking third on a sacrifice.
Weathers got to first tnd then Perrin
could not find the plate and walked
two men, forcing in the winning run.
Both hurlers pitched a close game,
Cuthbert totaling ten strikeouts to his
credit.
LTAKETIS
MAKE COMPETITION HOT,
MICHIGAN LOOKS STRONG
WILL HAVE HARD
FIGHT
BUTT
Four hundred and fifty entries, the
largest in 10 years, have been receiv-
ed for the Western intercollegiate track
meet to be held this week at Chi-
cago.
It has been decided by the commit-
tee to have trials in seven events in
order to cut down the field for Sat-
urday. There will be heats Friday'
afternoon in the 100 and 220 yard
dashes and the quarter and half mile
runs, and trials in the Discus and Jave-
lin throws and the pole vault.
25 Schools Represented
It is aimed to cut down the final
entries to about six men for each
event.
Besides the- Big Ten colleges there
are 15 other sc;ools represented in
the meet, and many of them are send-
ing strong aggregations which are
intending to take many points away
from the Conference teams.
Notre Dame Confidant
Michigan is granted to have the
strongest all around squad and to
have the best chances to win the
meet. However, the Maize and Blue
track men will have to fight a stiff
battle all the way through.
Notre Dame will cut in for a good
many points, although, Meehan, their
fast half miler, has sailed for the in-
ter-Allied meet in France and will not
be able to bring any honors to the
Catholic camp in this meet.
Haas Is Fast in 100
Chicago, although not putting up a
very stiff competition against the Wol-
verine team at Ferry field, is excep-
tionally strong in some events and will
be a big factor in. the distribution of
the final honors.
Haas, of Grinnell college, won the
100 yard dash at the Drake kelays and
he and Hayes of Notre Dame are the
largest obstacles that Cook and Losch
will have to surmount in the cen-
tury event.
Meese and Cook will have a clearer
field in the 220 yard dash, while Carl
Johnson is scheduled to repeat his
performance of the last outdoor west-
ern meet, when he took three firsts and
led Michigan tb the track champion-
ship of the West.
Broad Jump Sae
He will undoubtedly win the broad
jump, as his 23 feet 10 inches leap of
last week puts him in a class by him-
self in this event. Six feet one inch
also looks good for the high jump,
although he will find more competition
in this than in the distance jump.
Captain Sedgwick has been consist-
ently cutting down his time for two
mile run since his defeat of the Chi-
cago meet and is out for blood this
week.
Michigan Strong in Field
Butler and Burkholder in the 440
and 880 yard runs respectively are
in good condition and are going to run
hard races against competent oppo-
nents.
In the field events Coach Farrell's
men are exceptionally strong. Baker
won the shot put last year and at the
eastern meet put the 16 pound shot 43
feet, b Inches, whieh is his best ree-
ord. Smith is expected to do very
well in botl the shot put and the
hammer throw. He has shown re-
markable ability in the latter event,
and is doped as one of the best of the
entries.
Cross Must Come Across
The javelin throw is a comparative-
ly new event at Michigan and the
Wolverine strength there is more or
less unknown.
Cross and Wesbrook in the pole
vault will have their last chance this
week end to show their merits as
vaulters of intercollegiate merit. In
the last two dual meets Cross has not
equalled his achievements of the.
previous year, but it is hoped that his
consistent training will bring back
his old form for this meet.
Johnson or Simpson?'
Johnson will undoubtedly meet his
strongest opposition in Missouri's en-
try in the hurdles, Simpson. Before
he joined the service, Simpson was one
of the leading hurdlers of the doun-
try and it remains to be seen how
much of the silk was rubbed off. Simp-
