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.
