MCHIGAN IANGS CONSISTENT
RECORD IN EVENING
OF UPSETS
Unexpected good showing on the
part of two or three men who have
just reentered school from service
caused a great upsetting of dope in the
Conference meet last Friday and Sat-
urday, March 21 and 22.
Eielson, of Northwestern, was the
biggest surprise" of the program in
winning the pole vault at 12 feet, 4
Inches. The Purple star dhad been
doing well in the vault, but was not
looked upon as a winner, though last
year, on the Great Lakes Naval team
he proved himself a dangerous man.
Bucheit, the Illinois entry in this
event, gave Eielson a hard race but
was not quite good for the height
that won first place. In going 11 feet,
6 inches, Westbrook and Cross top-
ped anything that either have done
this year.
Johnson Ties Record
Ad usual, Carl Johnson, Michigan's
versatile star, was the hero of the
meet, winning the individual cham-
pionship with three firsts, for15
points. His best feat was the tying
of the world's record of 5 2-5 seconds
.in the 50 yard dash. He had no trou-
ble in getting first in the 60 yard high
hurdle event, and not being pressed
lis time was nothing remarkable.
Linn, the Northwestern high jumper,
did not live up to expectations and
Johnson won that event at 5 feet 11
inches, which is an inch higher than
he has jumped previously this season.
The feature event of the entire card
was the race between McCosh and
Sedgwick, captains of the two rival
teams, Chicago and Michigan, in the
two mile run. Already having the
mile under his belt, the Maroon runner
9rceeded to trail Sedgwick for nearly
:al of the two miles and breaking
into a sprint at -the finish and cap-
turing the race by a few inches. The
time, 9 minutes and 48 seconds, repre-
sents an exceptionally speedy race
from start to finish.
Michigan shot putters pulled the ex-
pected and both Smith and Walls came
through with points. Bummorish of
Purdue was one of the surprises in
taking second in this event.
Teams Present Contrast
A great contrast is presented in the
comparison of the two leading teams,
Michigan and Chicago, in their method
of taking points. Chicago has sev-
eral middle distance runners of un-
usual speed and it is to them that the
Maroon coach looks for enough points
to make up for those lost in the field
events. McCosh, Kennedy, Harris,
Lewis and Moore are all good ath-
letes and the chief point-gratbers for
the Midway school. Michigan has one
star in the person of Carl Johnson
and otherwise a well-balanced team,
capable of securing places in every
event. The Maize and Blue runners
took points in every event on the pro-
gram at the Conference meet.
Michigan's ability to register at the
critical moment was well brought out
in the mile relay. Farrell's quartet,
going into the race under the nces-
sity of taking one of the first three
places to win, came out second and
not far behind the fast Chicago four.
Before the race Michigan had an ad-
vantage of four points over the Ma-
roon team and the result of the last
event still left Michigan two points to
the good.'

First practice on Ferry field was
held Monday by Lundgren's men.
The whole squad was in the best of
spirits and seemed to be overjoyed
at feeling the same old turf under
their spiked hoes. The men are
working together so w;ell that it is
thought that this present form can-
not keep up. If it does, Michigan fans
may be sure that they are safe as far
as the diamond sport is concerned
this year.
Yost Watches Practice
Coach Yost and Coach Douglas
were down to look the men over and
seemed to be pleased with what they
saw. Many onlookers formed a good
sized audience at every practice. It
is believed that the number of specta-
tors at practices is significant of the
spirit throughout the whole Univer-
sity.
"Cush" Cushing made his annual
appearance also. This is said to be
as sure a sign of spring as the red-
breasted robin. He has taken great
pleasure for many years in coming
out almost daily with the baseball
squad, his popularity with the men
bleing enormous.
Open Field Favors Hitters
Practice consisted of batting during
the first part of the afternoon follow-
ed by infield work later. The men are
anxious to get as much experience at
wielding the stick as possible because
batting work in the Waterman gym,
where all practices have been held up
to this, time, was inconvenient to say
the least. However, they do not seem
to have lost any of the last year's
ability for connecting with the sphere.
MICHIGAN'S FOOTBALL STAFF
DOCTOR MAY, COACH YOST, AND COACH DOUGLAS
Uncertairtty Of Material Prevents
Definite Gridiron Forecast - Yost
"Nothing definite can be said at the
present time concerning our pros-
pects in football next fall. It is a'
question just how many of the men
will return that we have been count-
ing on. Next fall and not before we
will be able to judge what sort of a
gun we will have to shoot." In this
way Coach Fielding H. Yost Michi-
gan's famous football mentor who is
now in the city lining up the prospects
for next season, refused to attempt to
count his chickens before they were
hatched. He would say nothing con-
cerning the possibilities of winning
the football title in 1919.
Personnel Changes
It seems that at the present time he
is not certain what veterans will re-
turn. Nearly every day another grid-
iron hero reports found that it will be
impossible to answer the call of the
game for the coming season. The foot-
ball mentor does not have any idea
how things will line up when he is-
sues the call for the first practice.
"Then, too, it is impossible to say
how many of the men will pass their
work this . spring," continued the
Regarding spring football practice
coach. "The new Conference eligibility
rules makes it impossible for an ath-
lete to fail in any course at any time,
even the summer school being includ-
ed. This often cuts down the number
of stars that are eligible."
GIRLS' BASKETBALL
TO END THURSDAY
Junior and senior women will clash
in a consolation game, the last of the
interclass basketball series, at 5
o'clock, Thursday, March 27, in Bar-
bour gymnasium.
The game had to be postponed from
last Thursday because of the senior
medic ban'quet, but this delay has serv-
ed 'only to increase the intense rival-
ry between the two teams, and the
battle for the consolation banner
promises to be one of the most hotly
contested games of the season.
The lineup will be as follows: Soph-
omore team: forwards-Neva Nelson,
Katrina Schermerhorn; centers -
Helen Koch, Beatrice Beckwith;
guards-Phyllis Wiley, Jessie Craig.
Junior team: forwards - Dorothy
Jones, Edna Daskam; centers - Elsie
Erley, Marjorie Van Norman; guards
-Lucy Huffman, Sue Verlenden.
there will be no regular workouts ac-
cording to the "Hurry-up" coach. In-
stead the kickers and passers will ap-
pear only on certain days during the
week and will limber up under the
eyes of basketball Coach Mitchell and
Captain Goetz. This will be begun
after the spring vacation.
Seven Teams Boast
Yost did not seem to fear the other
teams greatly. He had been follow-
ing the dope published in the Chicago
and Minneapolis papers and said that
seven of the Big Ten teams had al-
ready laid claims to the champion-
ship. It seemed to be his opinion that
when the test comes the majority will
fall down as they had in other years
and the final struggle would be be-
tween the two or three schools that
fight it out year after year.

Why Not Perpetuate University Life
with Pictures
Why not have a snap, or flashlight, of the "Bunch," the "Dance," or
the hundred and one other things that occur at "Michigan?" Nothing
tells the story like a Picture. They make delightful souvenirs that will
be cherished Iong after other things are forgotten.
You know, or you don't you can find out r yourself, that Lyndon's
Flashlights and Groups are in a class by themselves. Many have tried and
are stil in but none have succeeded in approaching them in quality.
I am telling you this but don't take my word for it, be your own judge.
Now it's a simple thing to get these pictures; just call Lyndon, and he'll
get them, night or day.
Please get your order in before 8 P. M. for evening.
