CHALLENGE ISSUED BY
FIRST YEAR SWIMMERS
UPPERCLASSMEN D E F I E D BY
EIGHT YEARLINGS IN TANK
SPORT
Freshnen swimmers have issued a
challenge to water stars in the sopho-
more, junior, and senior classes for an
informal class meet at the local Y. M.
C. A. on any day agreed upon by the
upper classes, according to informa-
tion given out last night by a member
of the swimming squad.
At the present time the yearlings
present a fine array of swimmers and
contend that they can walk away with
any gathering of aquatic men that:
can be mustered from the otherr
classes.
Practice in "Y" Pool
Eight men, the majority of whom
are freshmen, have been holding prac-r
tices in the "Y" pool for several weeks.
The best man to appear thus far is
Dinwiddie, an upperclassman, who
holds several championships won on
the Pacific coast. He can make thel
20-yard dash in 8 4-5 seconds, which
is one second less than the world's
record. His specialty is the dashes.
White is considered to be one of the
best divers in the state. Briggs claims
that White was bound to improve
with practice. Briggs held the div-
ing honors for the past three years,
but he was forced to take second
place against White in the recent in-
formal D. A. C.-Michigan meet held
here last month.
Babcock a Star
One of the best dash swimmers in
the University at the present time is
Babcock. He is specializing in the
backstroke and the breast-stroke al-
though he has displayed considerable
ability in crawl events.
Joyce is another backstroke and

crawl artist. He is a former Cleve-
land star, and under the tutilage of
Elmer C. Drulard, '20, he has improv-
ed during the informal practices. Loeb
may be an entrant in the breast-
stroke, and should prove a real star
in another year of experience.
Gilmore, of Chicago, is showing up
well in the longer Wawl races and is
capable of giving any swimmer from
the upper classes a good race. Robert-
son, '20E, is now able to make the 20-
yard dashes in nine seconds flat.
Moon, the last of the men appearing
for practice, is a good diver, but- ca4-
not enter in any formal swimming
meets on account of being a profes-
sional.

FRESHMEN WIN IN
INTERCLA5S MEET
Entire Track Material Is Brought Out
by Games at Ferry Field
Saturday
UPPERCLASSMEN DO NOT SHOW
INTEREST; DEFEATED BADLY
Honors in the interclass track meet
fell to the class of 1922, with a mar-
gin of nearly 65 points over the team
running second. As nearly as can be
computed, the freshmen accounted for
78 points, the sophomores 15, juniors
8 and the seniors 3. These results
are not exact, as many of the classes
are omitted through lack of data.
Many of the events were of the
spectacular kind and augur well for
the futuer of track at Michigan. Lash-
met, of the winning team, jumped in-
to first place in the running broad
jump with a leap of 20 feet, 6.2 inch-
es. In addition to this Lashmet won
the 220 low hurdles and took third in
the 120 high hurdle event. In the
latter he was disqualified for kicking
over three hurdles.
Walker Beats Sedgwick
Walker ran one of the prettiest rac-
es of the day in the half mile in 2
minutes, 4 and 1-5 seconds. Tpe win-
ner ran second for half the race and
'then sprinted .into first ahead of Sedg-
wick, holding his lead for the re-
mainder of the distance. This race
was one of th~e speediest 880's that
has been run on the Ferry field track
this year. In the mile, Houfstater
took the lead at the start of the third
quarter and held it throughout. His
time was 4 minutes, 46 and 3-5 sec-
onds. Swartz and Earle staged a
close race for third, fighting for the
place all of the last three-quarters.
Earle lost out in the last five yards.
Tie 'in Pole Vault
Three men were tied in the running
high jump and in the pole vault. Rea,
Platt and Herringshaw quit when all
had missed at five feet, five inches.
In the pole vault, Kyser, Broadwell,
and Shannon failed at nine feet, six
inches. Immediately after Broadwell
cleared 10 feet six inches twice.
The most brilliant running of the
day fell to the lot of Moesch, the
freshman sprinter. He took the 100
yard dash in 10 and 2-5 seconds, and
the 250 yard dash in 23 1-5 seconds.

M. A. C. SOFT FOR
VARSITY NET MAN
After their defeat by the Detroit
tennis team Thursday, Michigan beat
M. A. C. Saturday 6-0. M. A. C. did
not win a single match from Wes-
brook and Bartz.
Wesbrook played his usual game,
outwitting his opponent at every stage
of the game. Iledan and Palm repre-
sented M. A. C., but were unable to
compete with the fast game played
by Wesbrook and Bartz. Wesbrook
had Iledan on the defensive through-
out the entire contest by histfast and
accurate shots to the back of the court.
Bartz had an advantage on his op-
pinent in height and played Palm at'
the net most of the amtch. In the
doubles Wesbrook and Bartz played
well together; aBrtz played an excep-
tional game at the net, while Wes-
brook covered the back of the court,
and surprised M. A., C. many times by
his backhand shots.
Bartz showed considerable improve-
ment in his 'game after the defeat giv-
en him by Reindel at Detroit Thurs-
day. The results were: Wesbrook
beat Hedan 6-0, 6-0; Bartz defeated W.
Palm 6-3, 6-0. In the doubles Wes-
brook and Bartz defeated Palm and
Iledan 6-1, 6-1. Final score, 6-0.
FRESH LAWS BLANK JUNIOR
MEDICS IN EXCITING GAME
Fresh Laws took a wejI played base-
ball game by a 2 to 0 score from the
Junior, Medics on South Ferry field
Saturday morning. It was a pitcher's
battle for the entire nine innings, only
two hits being registered by either
side. After a bit of hard luck in the
first -inning, Leahy, the Medic heav-
er, was never in danger, except when
Perrin, the ropposing pitcher, drove
out a triple, and was thrown -out at
the plate in an effort to score.
