LUNDGREN'S SQUAD
'STEADIES IN FORM
Fielding practice in the gymnasium
i is getting beyond the stage of rapid
development which was so noticeable
at the first of the workouts.
The baseballers are boiling down
+ the errors and making a science of
the scooping and throwing. It can be
easily noticed that the men go after
the hot grounders with a dash and
surety that bespeaks well for the fu-
ture prospects. And the speed and
precision of the pegging is bordering
on the midseason variety.
Whereas at the first of the season the
sphere chasers would muff one or
two of their quota of grounders, the
pill now goes speeding down the
floor, is gathered in, and hurled
back to the plate for several minutes
at a stretch without as much as even
a slip or a deviation of feet in the
throwing.
Batting is progressing as well as
can be expected at this stage of the
game and with the limited space avail-
able.
The pitching staff is getting its daily
workout tossing them over to the bat-
ters and the men coming up to the
plate in rotation keep the horsehide
hot.
Coach Lundgren, who pitched for
the Chicago Cubs when he was with
the major leaguers, often takes his
turn on the mound and keeps the bat-
ters guessing with his twisters.
MANY YEARLINGS
TRAINED IN GYM
Much credit is due the freshmen
who came out for the class track
team and competition last Saturday.
Many of them had practiced for sev-
eral weeks, starting even before there
was any hopes of a class meet.
This is one of the finest methods
of finding Varsity material among the
new men, and it is an excellent way to
stimulate class spirit. Many freshmen
have too light an opinion of their own
ability and would never report for a
trial with the Varsity team. Most of
these men can be given an opportu-
nity to ascertain their real powers in
this manner. In former years it was
customary to have dual meets with
some of the colleges around the state
but this is impossible now that Michi-
gan Is in the Conference.
The last two weeks before the meet
were times of hard training for the
track men in the class of 1922. Coach
Farrell has given a great deal of in-
struction in starting to the sprinters,
this being the important part of the
50 yard dash. After Wednesday of
last week he used the starting pistol
every night to give training to the dash
men. 'All of the Varsity athletes act-
ed as instructors in their events.
Illinois Outelasses Notre Dame 44-42
Notre Dame's track team fell to an-
other defeat by Big Ten cinder men
when Illinois won by the narrow mar-
gin of two points in the dual clash
held last Saturday on the Catholics'
home territory.
* Forty men have turned out for base-
ball practice at Dartmouth.
MICHIGAN PICKED
TO WININ TRACK
Chicago to Form Strongest Opposition
at Conference Indoor
meet
01110 ALONE TO FAIL ENTRY
IN ANNUAL BIG TEN AFFAIR
Closing of the etry list for the
ninth annual indoor track and field
meet of the western Conference, Fri-
day and Saturday, March 21 and 22,
found Ohio State the only school not
represented by a team.
As Conference teams only are ad-
mitted in the meet to be held in Pat-
ton gymnasium, Michigan is expected
to repeat the win of last year. Chi-
cago should give the Maize and Blue
squad a hard race if other of the
teams cut in on the points counted
on by the Michigan coach.
Many Michigan Entries
The 'Wolverine scores will come
mostly from the dash, hurdles, high
jump, pole vault, shot put, and two
mile. There are.many second and
thirds that will be picked up but which
cannot be counted on definitely. Chica-
go will count strongly in the runs,
from the 440 yard dash up. The re-
lay and mile are safely in te hands
of the Maroon team, the 440 and 880
are likely wins and there are possi-
ble points in other events.
Carl Johnson, winner of the indi-
vidual championship in both Confer-
ence meets last year is picked as the
winner of the hurdles and dash, ,and
should secure points in the high
jump. He is the premier of the field
in these events.
Carroll of Illinois, Johnson and
Cook of Michigan, and Collier of In-
diana are considered for places in the
60 yard dash. All have done fast
time this year and an interesting fight
for first place should result. Hysch
of Wisconsin is also coming fast and
may secure a place.
Johlison in Hurdles
Johnson outclasses all other en-
tries in the hurdle races and should
have no difficulty in winning. Reed of
Wisconsin, Rath of Purdue, Loomis
and Williams of Indiana, and Hall of
Chicago are the best that the re-
mainder of the list can offer.
Several fast runners will be brought
together in the 440 yard dash, which
is the hardest race to dope because so
'little is known of the various compet-
itors. Briggs of Indiana took second
last year in the indoor met and should
do as well this time. Weber and
Hamilton of Northwestern both placed
in the outdoor meet last spring and
will be hard men to beat. Other en-
tries of ability are Collier of Indiana,
Kennedy and Harris of Chicago, Em-
ery of Illinois, Butler and Messner of
Michigan, and' Kayser of Wisconsin.
Speer Picked for 880
Speer of Chicago is the logical win-
ner of the 880 yard run, though there
are several men that may dispute this
claim. Buell of Michigan has the best
chance as he has already made the
Chicago man stretch to win. Brown
of Illinois and Ramsey of Wisconsin
are expected to cop points.
Barring accident McCosh of Chica-
go will take the mile with little trou-
ble. The Maroon captain is by far
the best miler in the Conference and
has had no difficulty in winning this
event every time out for the last two
years.
The two mile is safe in the hands oft
Captain Sedgwick, of Michigan. Mc-
Cosh should figure in this event as
well as the mile but can hardly hope
to win from the -Wolverine distance:
star. Copeland of Purdue and Beu of
Northwestern are the other entries of
note.
Johnson Entered in Jesup
Carl Johnson will have competition
in the high jump this year in the per-
son of Linn, the Northwestern star.
The Purple man cleared 6 feet 1inch
this year in the I. A. C. handicap
meet. Osborne of Illinois, Brigham of
Iowa, Eielson of Northwestern, and
Edwards of Wisconsin are to be con-
sidered for places.
Cross of Michigan should have little
trouble in the pole vault, with West-
brook close behind. Kiefer of Purdue
has been doing well and Eielson of
Northwestern and Buchheit of Illinois
are considered good.
Smith and Walls of Michigan and
Wallen of Iowa have all touched the
40 foot mark in the shot put and
will be the most serious competitors.
Hultkratz of Min'nesota is reported
good though nothing is known defi-
nitely and Gorgas of Chicago took
points last year but has not compet-
ed so far this season.
Stagg to Get Relay
Stagg's relay team should have lit-
tle difficulty in taking that event be-
cause of its good showing in dual
meets this year. The Michigan team,
strengthened by returned veterans
may, however, show unexpected speed.
