A. U. meet in New York, for the second place which he captured and the third for which he tied only begin to tell the story, a cir- cumstance which the eastern papers were not backward in recognizing. Only Scratch Man In the 75 yard dash the Michigan captain was beaten, by Lourie of Princeton, but Michigan's representa- tive was the only scratch man in the run, and Lourie was ,given a 12 foot- handicap. Despite this fact the race wa's so close that the Judges were in doubt as to the outcome, Lourie was awarded first by less than one foot, ' the time being eight seconds. This leaves Johnson easily the fastest com- petitor. Egon Erickson, who captured the high jump, is the New York p6lice- man who competed in.the last Olymp- ics. In spearing of him Johnson said, "He is in all reality a wonderful high jumper." Erickson has been in active competition for 18 years now, being 36 years old, married, and has four children. He is a traffic policeman at 34th Street and Broadway. In Sunday's Daily it was stated that Johnson did not jump off the tie for third with Wahler, which may ,give a wrong impression, as " such a tie is Jumped off only when it decides a meet. The' Michigan star and Wahler tossed for third,'Wahler winning. f Called Leading Athlete The New York Sun hailed Johnson as the leading athlete of the present day in its story written after the meet. Before the meet he was given a full- page in the Boston Post, in which such coaches as Keene FitzPatrick compared his record with that of Al- vin Kraenzlein, who is considered one of the greatest track men of all time.- rut Seventy Men Signed Up for Diamond Team; Forty-ile Work Out 'Daily CATCING 'STAFF IS COACH LUNDGREN'S CHIEF WORRY Coch Lundgren's call for more baseball candidates met with a better ,response yesterday afternoon when some promising new material showed up. at Waterman gymnasium for prac- tice.

With the grades for the first semes- ter all in, the varsity track squad has suffered 'through ineligibility in the high jump only. In. this event, Coach Farrell is exceptionally hard hit. Of' the five candidates,'Haigh, Barringer, .and Hobie will be unable to compete. This leaves only Captain Johnson and Later for this event. Outside of the high jump, the squad is intact. The first real blow that has beenf dealt. the Varsity comes as the result of the injury to Burkholder. While warming up on the floor, Paul pulled a tendon in his leg. It was at first hoped that he had. merely strained a, cord, but closer examination reveal- ed a pulled tendon. The injury will keep him out of a track suit and all competition' for at least three weeks. Burkholder is Steve's best half miler and his absence from the squad will be greatly felt in, both the Illinois eRlays on March 6, and the dual meet with Chicago on March 13. Coach Far- rell hopes that he-will be-in shape for the Indoor Confprence meet at Evans-a ton. Everett Looks Good Under the careful direction and coaching of Steve Farrell and his as- sistants, a distance squad is slowly being developed. Everett, 'the most. promising miler on last year's fresh- man team, is now eligible for the Var- sity. He has not, been out for practice, much ars yet but already he is show-. ing up favorably. With Maynard, Earle and other members of the cross-coun-, try team, a squad for the distances is rounding into shape. - As usual, practically- the entire squad was out for practice yesterday afternoon. The quarter milers are continuing to improve and while noth- ing phenomenal has' been done as yet,' Coach Farrell 'looks to a strong mile relay team. The half. milers worked out but the absence of Burkholder was apparent. Steve gave the milers a fairly easy day. Dash Men Going Well In the dashes, Wetzel, Losch, Meese, and Joyner ran through sev- eral heats. Wetzel ran especially well. Losch showed his usual form and Meese and Joyner displayed their reg- ular determination and consistency. Captain Johnson and Beardsley step- ped over the, hurdles in' good form. men. The spirit shown by the men Is ox- cellent. .A11 of them have an abund- ance of pep and willingness for work. which promises to make the fight for regular berths hotter than 'usual. The greater part of the afternoon was spent ip batting fast bounders to the inflelders. After a short wrkout in the cage Captain Parks, Ed. Ruzicka, and Dutch Saunders loosened up their s oulders by batting groundiers to the aspiring crew of infield men. No Positions Cinched The Varsity mentor, although par- ticularly pleased with the increase of outfielders and battery ien, .hurlers Ain particular, wants it understood that none of the positions are too strongly fortified and that no positions are cinched nor' will be until after the return from the' spring training trip in 'the South. Mile Knode, captain of last year's Varsity and for two seasons an All- Conference 'short. stop, 'put in his appearance yesterday for ,the first time. Mike is an Intern at the Ui- versity hospital this yea and has been unable to spend much time 'in. sports since the close of the football season. His appearance with the as- surance that he will find tin. to get put for the team caused Michigan supporters to feel joyful. The fast .little short stop put in a snappy wo-k. out and from all appearances he should becapering about with. all o his old speed in a few weeks. Hurlers Out in Force The cage was crowded yesterday with aspiring 'noundsmen. The great- est difficulty was to find' enough re- ceivers to hold themxn Nick cheidler made his, initial apeparane, taking only, a light workout OHara a new tosser, Hubach Merz, and. .Gariepy, ,Lundgren's only southpaw, were loos- ening up their wings along with Parks, Rzicka,- and' Saunders. If these men comethrough, the Wolver- Sue pitching staff should round out in fine shape. The catching department is still weak in numbers. Genebach, Coates, Bigelow, and Taggart were all out showing good form. S Infielders Work Hard The infielders were given a chance to shovf' their stuff. Hot liners; bounders and 'rollers were batted to all aspirants. Several of the new men gave some pretty exhilitions of one- hand stops and showed good pegging arms. First basemen Butch Froemke ,and Jimmie Newe made some pretty catches ' and stops. Btch capered, about as in former days while Newell was also on his toes getting every- thing that came his 'way., The out- fielders are handicapped by the work indoors: and'have to content themselv- es with stopping' the rollers instead of chasing flies. A host of outer gard- eners have signed up and from their number .a capable outfield should be picked to duplicate the stellar work done' last year by Langenhan, Cooper, and Bowerman. With the apeparance of a few more receivers Coach Lund- gren's worries, over material will be- gin to .abate The Daily contains the latet As..- ciated Prsus News.- -Adv. Willard L Peach, often known as "Waffle," was one of the" fortunate ones to receive a sheepskin at the close of the last semester. The stocky pigskin chaser completed his course in the Literary college at ' that time and has now left these academic shades for larger fields of endeavor. Entering Michigan in the fall of 1S15 Peach became one of the bright stars of that year's freshman football team. 'He held down the right end of the line in. satisfactory shape all sea- son. The following fall he figured prominently in the defeat of M. A. C.: and in the wonderful fourth quarter come-back in which Michigan nosed out Syracuse 14 to 13. He played right end on the Varsity throughout the 1916 season and was awarded his "M" at its close. When the United States became em- broiled with Germany et aL Peach was among those who heeded the call to arms, and he remained in the mil- itary service until last spring. He re- turned to college in the fall and Yost counted on. him as. one of the main- stays of his team. An unfortunate in- jury to his leg, however, impaired his usefulness considerably and the coach found it advisable to shift him to a guard position, where speed was not to essential as at the flank job. BENT FOOTBALL AND FRESH CROSS COUNTRY JERSEYS READY and this is what has given it the vic- tories over'seemingly stronger teams.1 For this .reason the game will prob- ably be the best 'exhibition' of hockey which Michigan has seen. Constant and arduous practice has developed the offensive >work of the Michigan aggregation. This is the de- partment in which the team has been weak, but great improvement has been made since the victory over the Web- j ers. The Weber manager particularly[ praised our defensive work andk now that several new offensive combina- ltions have been worked out, the Mich- 4gan squad is one to be feared. All of the following men will un- doubtedly be given an opportunity to ,exhibit their worth: Barkell, c; Kerr (Capt.), l.w.; Anderson and Cannon, as "I Bow been that. PITAL COATS.
