INTERSCHOLASTIC TO BEHD HERE First Feet of This Kind Since Spring of 1916 When Oregon, Ill., Was Victor FORBES NAMED AS MANAGER OF APPROACHING CARNIVAL After a &pse of two years, the an- nual University of Michigan inter-- scholastic track and field meet will be held Saturday, May 24. David A. Forbes was appointed manager by the board of directors Saturday, April 26, and has started his plans for the event. The Michigan interscholastic meet has always ranked first among the' high school meets of the middle west, and is, with the Harvard meet, one of the two biggest affairs in the United States. This year will be an exceptionally good one for the esmaller schools to compete ,as there are no high school athletes of known ability in competi- tion this year. For two years there has been no high school track and in this time all the men of reputation have finished and a new crop has not made a reputation. Medals to Be Awarded Medals for the first three places will be awarded and a ribbon for fourth. There will be several cups offered, one for the individual high point winner, and one for the team that takes the relay race There may be several others offered but now these are the only ones that are certain to be put up. Manager Forbes has spok- en of a cup to be presented to the team taking second place as well as to the team winning. All entries must be in by May 14. This will give all schools two weeks to prepare and send in their lists. In- stead of the usual two days that have ben taken in the past by the meet, all the events will be run off in the one day. If preliminary races are necessary they will be pulled off in the morning and the finals run in the afternoon. Only a few events are ex- pected to have enough entries to re- quire any elimination heats. The usual track events will be on the card, in- cluding the 880 relay, which will be one of the feature races. Manyof the schools of the state have turned out fast teams in these relay races and it very often is one of the most strongly contested events of the meet. All Teams in One Class All schools etered will be in one class this year, instead of two, as has been the custom in the past seasons. For several years the state teams have been in one group and the teams from out of the state in another. As the teams that came from other states were the pick of the country and many of the small schools in Michigan sent teams it was obviously unfair to pit them together. So little is known of the power of any school this year, that all will be put in one class, for this spring, at least. Eligibility atsthe meet kill be un- der the rules of the Michigan Inter- scholastic Athletic association, and all out of state teams will be required to abide by these rules, rathertthanrthe rules that exist in the state from which the team comes. More of the squads will come from. Michigan than any other state, so the requirements here are to be used. All questions will be brought before a committee consisting of three members of the M. I. A. A., Director of Outdoor Ath- letics Philip Bartelme, and Manager Forbes. The decisions of this board will be the final law as regards this event. year and contributed heavily to his team's total. Various forms of amusement have been projected for entertainment, but nothing is yet eertain. One high class attjtction is, however, assured. Mich- igan and Iowa clash in baseball, May 24, and by all present indications this game will go far in determining the Conference winner. Plans will be worked out by the committees and an- nounced later. WOLVERINES WIN DECISIVE VICTORY (Continued from Page One) Score One in Sixth Driscoll opened Indiana's allotment of the sixth inning with a fly to Froemke, while Faust and Sutheimer 'altogether failed to meet the require- ments of Parks' offerings. For Mich- igan, Huber was called safe at first on an error but was caught of the bag a moment later. Karpus reached the 'initial sack on a' second slip and scor- ed as Parks was called at second fol- lowing another base on error. Knode and Cooper were hit by pitched balls and negotiated a double steel giving the latter a total of three for the game. Garrett waited for four balls and fill- ed the bases. Pheney ended the inn- ing with.a fly to center field. The seventh inning was uneventful and neither nine added hits nor runs. Indiana was held helpless in the eighth and Michigan failed to tally in spite of the second hit from Knode's bat. Driscoll Gets Lone Hit Driscoll, the first man up for the Hoosiers in the ninth, spoiled a clean slate for Parks by delivering the lone hit of his team to center field. Faust struck out and Sutheimer flied out to Karpus. Dean wouid up the game with a grounder to Parks. A good crowd was on hand to see the first big battle of the season dispite the cold and wind. The grandstand was nearly full and the shade bleach- ers contained a few. The crowd wit- nessed a good brand of baseball on the part of Michigan but did not get more than their money's worth on account of the poorness of the Bloom- ington team. It could be told when Indiana had the field warming up that they were no match for the champions. Their teamwork lacked the snap and vigor that a first class ball team always has.

The Deroit netmen were beaten at every angle of the game. The work of Westbrook, Bartz, and Muntz, was exceptional for so early in the sea- son. Westbrook defeated Codd 6-1, 6-4. Ilis backhand shots were accurate and kept his opponent constantly on the defensive. Bartz had little trouble in beating Emerson, 6-0, 6-4. Muntz played the best match of the tourna.- ment against Lichtner, one of De- troit's best. He took the first set easily, 6-0 ;the second he won 10-8. 11arison was defeated by Prescott, 6-3, 2-6, 6-2. Bower defeated Dono- van, at one time captain of the Mich- igan tennis team, 6-3, 6-4. Shields lost to Jerome 6-2, 2-6, 10-8. In the doubles Westbrook and Bartz defeated Codd and Emerson 6-3, 6-4. Coach Mack was pleased with the work of the men. He has arraigned a match with the 'T'oledo Tennis club for the coming week. Tentative Fresh Ball Team Picked As a result of the early All-fresh baseball practice, Coach Mitchell has a group of 25 men who have shown up the best thus far and will be most seriously considered for the team. This list, however, is far from permanent, and will undoubtedly be greatly chang- ed in the next few days. These men have been selected from the 75 candidates who signified their intention of trying out for the team by signing up last week. Not many of these men are attending the prac- tice sessions at the same time, and many have not been out at all. Re- sults can only be obtained from team play and the men that make their ap- pearance most regularly will get the best from the practice, and have the edge on the rest of the squad when the team is selected. High Class Infield Several of the men have done ex- ceptional playing in the few games that have been run off and merit spe- cial notice. Vick. Varsity football player and former star on the Toledo Scott high baseball team, is giving all the signs of being a catcher of high caliber. His throwing is good and he handles the ball well. The fresh team has a prize in the person of Ingles, former Varsity heav- er for Colgate, who is creating a small sensation by the excellence of his de- livery. His control is good and he has a lot of speed. Huback, the best of the southpaw pitchers, is going in fine shape now and will balance the right hand pitching of Ingles and Barker in good shape. Broome and Foster are the first base candidates who will be' looked to for covering the initial sack. Broome has the advantage in reach on Foster but otherwise there is not a great deal to choose between the two. Two Varsity football players are in the scrap for second, Carter and Jordan. Dunne Good at Short Dunne, also of the Varsity gridiron team, is the most likely man for short. The big boy covers the ground in a fine manner and puts lots of pep in his general playing. Schneider is fielding well around third, and Pear- man, a member of the All-fresh bas- ketball team, is also showing speed on the far corner. Eight or 10 gardeners have been picked that will be among those pres- ent when the appointments are made. Much depends on the way in which they take to batting practice. No batting has been given the men as yet and it is not known how great- ly it will change the squad. Some new men are certain to come into the light when they have a chance to display their ability with the stick. Several different infields were tried out in the short drill given Saturday morning. Success varied, but on the basis of the workout the list was made. During the next few days the coach wishes to see every man out ready to play, as it is necessary to organize a team to oppose the Varsity in the daily practice. The squad:. Catchers, Vick, Winestein; pitchers Ingles, Huback, and Barker; first Broome, Hoppe, and Foster; V second Carter, Collie, Jordan; short, Dunne, Wolfson; third, Schneider, Pearman-; outfield, Hoffman, Hess, Kahn, Havi- land, Kerwin, Green, Kresge, Petti- bon. BALL TEAM AS GOOD AS LAST YEAR - LUNOGREN COACH FEARS ILLINOIS MOST AMONG CONFERENCE NINES "This season's baseball team is as good as was the championship nine of last spring" was the way Coach Lundgren expressed his appreciation of Michigan's victory over Indiana, Saturday afternoon. Although the hitting will not be as heavy as it was last year, better pitching, faster field- ing and more speed on the bases will overcome this difference." The baseball mentor seemed extra- ordinarily pleased with the perform- ance of his aggregation against the Hoosiers although he had some fault to find at various places. In Parks, the coach sees the best pitcher since the days of Sisler and according to him, Umpire Egan, who gave the de- cisions during the game, said, "Never had he seen a better college pitcher than Parks. "We are going to miss the heavy hitting of Mraz, the stocky third sack- er of the titlewinners. It is nearly an impossibility to find a man that can use a bat like Shorty anywhere. Too, we will miss Olhmacher, and Adams." The coach then added his belief that in the other departments of the game the nine would be stronger. When asked what he thought of the Indiana ball team he answered, in ef- fect, that he had realized from the be- ginning that the Wolverines would have little trouble in coming out on the long end of the score yesterday afternoon. According to the coach, Hinkel is not to be compared with Parks. The other Conference teams with the exception of Ohio State are to be fear- ed, according to Coach Lundgren, es- pecially Illinois. Iowa, with their veteran pitcher, Hamilton, will also form considerable competition. Re- garding the coming two games with Chicago the mentor would not express himself. He claimed that not having seen the Maroon in action it would be impossible for him to say anything re- garding their outcome. He did agree, however, that any team, other than Michigan, winning this seasons flag would have the Wol- verines as the contenders. He seemed to believe that Illinois was the Con- ference nine most to be feared. BASEBALL SCORES National League St. Louis, 1; Cincinnati, 5. Pittsburg, 6; Chicago, 3. Brooklyn-Boston, postponed.
