!JOHNSON SPRAINS
BACK IN BAD FALL
Carl Johnson, Michigan's famous
track star, is unable to work out with
Coach Farrell's squad during the next
10 days because of a sprained back,
the result of several accidents among
Of the 57 runs which have been
made in the four baseball games in
which Michigan has met Olivet, Michi-
gan has 45 to its credit. The first
game was played in 1892.
In the baseball season of 1913 Mich-
igan met Syracuse in two contests in
which Michigan piled up 25 runs to
Syracuse's nine.

XeCLINTOCK BREAKS INTO
GAME AGAINST OHIO STATE
Rychener to Start Friday's Clash in
Place of Wilson As One of
Guards
Last night's practice followed to the
etter the plan that Coach Mitchell
outlined earlier in the week. A
workout in which he gives the squad
careful instruction followed by a
short and fast scrimmage is the pro-
gram. The coach has decided that,
his is the type of practice that will
e most effective in getting the team
.n shape for the week end. Every ef-
fort now is bent toward putting the
finishing touches on the five.
The importance of the coming two
games is not lost upon the squad eith-
er. Each man has improved wonder-
fully in form. Some just seem to have
begun to find themselves.
There have been upsets by ir-
'egular additions to the squad of men
who have been discharged from ser-
vice. This has been a great disad-
vantage but' the additions have so
strengthened the main outlay that the
apparent handicap has been really
)vercome.
Bornstein Playing Well
Bornstein's development of late has
caused much comment. This plucky
.ittle forward came through at everyj
opportunity in ,the last few games.
His conduct in the Lansing battle was
especially creditable. Several times
when the situation appeared to bej
serious for the Maize and Blue his
rood playing seemed to turn the tide.
While "his name does not appear on
:he line-up for next Friday night as
announced by Coach Mitchell earlier
n the week, he will undoubtedly be
substituted during the game.
The coach's announcement was as
follows: Hewlett and Karpus, for-
wards; McClintock, center; Rychener
and Williams, guards. These men
with Bornstein, Wilson, Emory and
Weiss, now form the first string quin-
et. The team which will be selected
for the trip at the end of the season
will probably be taken from this list.
Guarding C1ombination Broken
It may be noticed that the guarding
combination of Williams and Wilson
has been broken up, at least accord=
ing to the lineup. This will be a cause
for regret among many fans because
the way these two Detroiters can
work togethersalways with the same
speed and efficiency has won the heart
of the cheering section. The experi-
ence of Williams and the fight that
Wilson always puts into the game
makes a big appeal to fans.
The spirit of co-operation which the
squad now has is all that could be de-
sired. The smooth-running machine
which Coach Mitchell has been work-
ing for all season is now taking forrA.,
In other words, the basketball which
the present squad is playing is not
only the result of their hard work but
is also a culmination of the work done
by all the others that I'ave tried out.
Only after a careful study of the
basketball points of each candidate
can the coach pick out, by a difficult
process of elimination, the kind of a
team which is now representing Mich-
igan.

continue
the Con-I
them a fall on the ice last Saturday.
This is liable to keep the big Wolver-
ine from strenuous participation in
the early meets and may preventhim
working in his best form in the later
games.
Johnson injured his back for the
first time last year practicing broad
jumping in Waterman gymnasium. At
that time he was laid up for a week,
and the accident prevented the west-
erner from performing at his best
speed through all the meets of last
spring. His back kept him bound up
and he was not able to stretch himself
as he had done in former years.
The secon4 time Johnson suffered a
fall was while he was in the S. A. T.
C. last autumn. While playing in one
of the games which were often indulg-
ed in during drill he tripped and had
to report for sick-call for several
days, being unable to continue the reg-
ulation work.
It is possible that this third fall,
which occurred Saturday, may be more
serious than is now generally believ-
ed. The wrench that Johnson gav'e
his back was the worst of the three
and he is now suffering severely: The
los of the big jumper would be the
worst blow that has befallen Michi-
gan's track athletics for many years.
He could be counted on ordinarily to
win 15 points in any meet and even 20
in others. Without him the excellent
possibilities of winning another Con-
ference championship in track would
be largely blasted.

ference. The Maroons are temporar-
ily at the head because of the larger
number of games they have played.
The game Pat Page's pupils played
last night with Iowa is not included
in the standing.
The biggest change during the
last week was with Purdue. In five
days the Boilermakers lost three
games to Chicago, Minnesota, and
Northwestern; and ' dropped to fifth
place. Michigan's Conference sched-
ule is practically just beginning,
while most of the other teams are
two-thirds through their games.
