CINDER SQUAD PREPARES
FOR MAROON DUL. MEET
FARRELL CALLS ALL RUNNERS'
INTO ACTION AFTER
REST
Monday was a busy day for the Var-
sity track and field athletes at Ferry
field. Nearly all of the men reported
for work, some of whom have been on
a vacation since the team returned
from the Drake relays.
,Carl Johnson was one of the men who
came out after a rest. Following a
bit of sprinting to limber up he tried.
the hurdles and then Jogged a few
laps on the track for endurance.
Losch, who reported later, practiced
starts and ran a handicap 220 yard
dash before quitting.
440 Quartet Out
About eight quarter milers were out
for exercise and ran distances of vary-
ing lengths. None were sent around:
very fast, as the coach is not running
risks of stiff muscles. Messner,
Meese, Schofield, Pett and several oth-
ers came out before the afternoon was
over.
Cross and Westbrook both appear-
ed in suits and tried out the vaulting
pit for a short time. Nothing in the
way of great, height was attempted
as they are merely seeking to keep in
condition for the Chicago meet, May 17.
Sedgwick Warms U~p
Captain Sedgwick, Tom Sedgwick
and Bouma ran about a mile and a half
each during the practice time. Chi-
cago is preparing to take the meet on
the distance events and all of the
Michigan men are putting in the
greatest amount of practice possible
every day to give the Maroon runners
a bit of a surprise.
Of the weight men Lindstrom was
out throwing the discus and putting
the shot. In the weight events Michi-
gan will stand a fair chance of cop-
ping many more points than Chicago

Lack Of Spirit
Shown In Track
In spite of the fact that four days
have elapsed since first announcement
of the class track meet to be held on
May 10, Coach Farrell reports a gen-
eral lack of interest in the affair and
a decidedly poor showing dn the part
of the freshmen.
As the contests are now less than
two weeks away the coach was par-
ticularly disappointed at the apparent
failure of the yearlings to grasp this
opportunity to get numerals and to*
plac4 themselves in line for possible
Varsity berths. He attributes this
lack of response in great part due to
the lowest ebb of class spirit that has
been displayed for many years and'
urges that all athletes of every degree
of experience turn out at once and be-
gin training for the coming event.
At present the pole vault, the broad
jump, the shot put, the hammer throw,
the discus throw, and the javelin
throw all stand without a single en-
try and the representation in the other
events is almost negligible.
The coach wishes it announced again
that lockers at Ferry field will be dis-
tributed to the men trying out and
that the Varsity coaching staff will in-
struct all men training for the meet.
Class numerals will be awarded those
taking the first three places in each
event.
MARTHA COOK BASEBALL TEAM
TtES IRST GAME OF SEASON
Women's baseball was off with a
roar when Martha Cook defeated the
Delta Gamma nine by the overwhelm-
ing score of 14 to 5 in the initial game
of the season. Hilda Debar, the star
twirler of the victorious team, dis-
played ability that bdes ill for all
aspirants to the championship of the
league. The fact that the nines con-
sisted of only 8 players each did not
detract from the speed of the game.

MORNING RAIN HINDERS
VARSITY DIAMOND WORK

(xRR1ETT GlVEN iNITIAL
AS COACH TRIES NEW
INFIELD

SACK

Monday's baseball practice was im-
peded by the condition of the ground
after the rain and as the diamond was
not fit for use the players were forced
to go out further iri the field to, the
more solid turf. This situation kept
the team from any fast work although
the men speeded up as the practice
progressed.
Batters Find Ball
Batting practice was the main fea-
ture of the program. Coach Lundgren
took a hand at tossing the ball to the
men as they took to the plate in their
regular batting order. Heavy hit-
ters, such as Pheney, Knode, and oth-
ers, showed up in good form and con-
nected consistently with the sphere,
driving either hot grounders or long
flies at every time to bat.
Parks and Glenn warmed up on the
side-lines. These two men work out
together every afternoon, seeming to
benefit mutually by the swapping of
little tricks in the twirling end of the
game. Parks was in as good shape
in practice as in the game last Satur-
day. Many believe that his man is go-
ing todo wonders this season and
that the, Indiana victory was just a
starter on the sort of ball that he
would turn out for the rest of the
year.
Infield Shifted
After the batting drill the coach
picked an infield consisting of
Schluntz, Garrett, Knode, Van Boven,
and Karpus. This combination seem-
ed to work well together. This was
one of the first times that Garrett
was put at first base and the coach
paid particular attention to his in-
truction. Garrett seemed to handle
the position successfully and adapted
himself with great- spned tn the su-

gestions, which were necessary in
the changing from his regular post.
TENNIS MEN TRAIN
FOR OHIO MATCH
Coach Mack plans to give the Var-
sity tennis squad plenty of work this
week in preparation for the matches
with Ohio State Saturday. All of the
men are in condition following their
victory over the Detroit Tennis club
last Saturday.-
Muntz has a bad ankle but is ex-
pecting to be ready for today's prac-
tice. The courts °were in bad condi-
tion yesterday after the recent rains,
and interfered with the usual prac-
tice. B~artz is showing steady im-
provement in his service and back-
hand shots.
Popp, who won his match Saturday
against Floyd 6-2, 6-2, is showing
more with every workout. Little is
known of the strength of Ohio State
this year, but Coach Mack will place
his strongest team in the field Satur-
day.
There will be practice for the fresh-
men tennis squad on the Varsity courts
at 2:30 p. in. All freshmen who in-
tend to try out for the team must re-
port today.
FIRST PRACTICE GAME BRIDAGS
OUT YEARLIG BALL MATERIAL
Fresh baseball is progressing in fine
shape. Coach Mitchell feels he will
soon be able to pick his squad. The
weather Monday kept some of the men
away from the field but there were
enough for a snappy workout.
Infield and outfield practice started
the day. After everyone had a turn
at this the coach picked two teams. He
felt that even though a man might
show up well in fielding practice he
might not be so good in a game. The
,yearlings proved their ability 'and an
interesting game ensued. The two
picked showed great improvement in
their team work and will probably be
the material from which the coach will
get most of the lineup for the fresh-
man squad.
'INTRAMURAL BASEBALL TO BE
PITT UTNDERt WAY THIS WEEK

der way by the middle of the week,
