INTERESTING -SEASON IS ANTICiPITED FOR NINES SUCKERS ON PAPER WILL BE STRONG CONTENDERS FOR TITLE Baseball conditions among the Big Ten universities are beginning to take on an aspect whch promises td make the season an interesting one for all the schools in the Conference. Plans and training have taken definite forms in the universities. A wealth of mate- rial made up largely of former letter winners is present In the Conference. This coming season will renew the fight of previous seasons among these Illinois Has Veterans From early season dope, all of the schools appear to be fostering power- ful ;nines, waiting only for the um- pires to announce the batteries be- fore sending their diamond'represent- atives into action. From the stand- point- of veterans, Michigan and Illin- ois appear to have the edge. The Ur- bana school has in its fold probably more veterans than the Wolverines. Illinis has won more Cnference baseball championships than all of the Big Ten schools put together. The Wolverines have won the title since their return to Western com- petition but did not meet any of the Conference teams during the years their schedule was confined to Eastern and Southern nines. Illinois is always well represented on the diamond and this year promises to be no exception. Reports from var- ious sources indicate that the Orange and Blue are looking forward to the opening of their schedule in an op- timistic manner. They have in Ing- werson, a three sports man, one of the best first sackers on the college diamond. Ingwerson is a veteran of two seasons. Lalor, crack third base man on their 1918 aggregatior., has re- turned. He is one of the bst field- ing third basemen in the West and has a record as a consistent hitter. Diehl, an outfielder, is also back on their squad.- Catching Material Strong -rIf judgement is to be madeon vet- erans the Suckers should have , the strongest receiving staff in the Con- ference. Kopp of the 1918 team and Kaiser of last year's nine are rated highly. The former is an accurate pegger. The absence of Vollmer, the Chicago receiver, from Conference competition gives the Illini a big edge In this department. Other Big Ten teams, including the Wolverines, have new men for this position, likely,, to break into the limelight. The.44pk- ers have a trio of mound veterans in- cluding their captain, Pat Ryan, the best right hander to oppose the Wol- verines last year. These men were coach'ed early in the training season, by Grover Alexander of the Cubs. . Iowa is lead by Captain Hamilton, a pitcher who has shown well in the last two seasons. Purdue is reported to be shy hurlers and outfielders but' is ,banking largely on some of its }basketball men to i bolster up the twirling problem. On phper the Suck- ers seem to be the strongest aggrega- tion in the race for Michigan's title. NAME OMITTED The name. of Theodore P. Banks was omitted from the list of names of All-fresh football men that were awarded numerals and sweaters at the All-fresh dinner in the Union last' week. The Michigan Daily Students' Di- rectory Supplement will be completed in subsequent issues, FARRELL 00ES NOT EXPECT WALKAWAY ONLY ONE HURDLE RACE ROBS JOHNSON OF CERTAIN FIRST "The indoor Conference meet at Northwestern Saturday will be no walkaway for Michigan," said Coach+ Farrell, Tuesday. "The Michiganx squad will need all the, support it can get and the best way to give this, support is for as many students asr can to accompany the team to Evans-" ton and root for the Wolverines." Coach Farrell fears ,Illinois more than any other team in the Confer-I ence. The Urbana squad is an ex-p ceedingly well-balnced one and it is, for this reason that Steve is moreF fearful of Illinois than he is of Chi-S cago. According to the Varsity men- tor, Michigan would have little to fear from the Maroons even if all their men were in shape. Illinois Sure to Place Although the Illini are not likely to take many firsts they are sure to gar- ner a considerable number of seconds and thirds. Buchanan is almost cer- tain to place in the pole vault, while. Weiss has a good chance of landing a -place in the shot. In the sprints, the Illinois team have two strong men in Prescott and Nagel. The former placed third in the Relay Carnival dash event and the latter beat him in the dual meet with Iowa. It is also said that they have unearthed a man who can better six feet in the high jump. Not only are the Illini a powerful aggregation, but the other Conference teams are liable to break into the scoring column in Michigan's strong- est events. Andres of Wisconsin, is both a pole vaulter of merit and a fast hurdler. He vaulted 11 feet 10 inches in the dual meet with North- western Saturday and finished second to Jbhnson in the hurdles at Urbana. Higgins of Chicago is an almost sure winner of the shot. Williams of In- diana is also a strong man in this event. He attended Michigan in his freshman year and while here put the shot 42 feet. Only One Hurdle Race Another fact that will cut in on the Wolverines' score is the nature of the events which are to be held. There will be no high hurdles, a fact which will rob Johnson of a certain first: Moreover, no broad jump is scheduled, thus eliminating the chance for Mich- igan points there. In the distances, the Wolverine chances for points are slim indeed. Certain points in the dash, the one hurdle race, the high jump, and the pole vault, and likely points in the 440, the shot, and the mile are what Michigan must rely on to win,. WRESTLING MEET REACHES FINALS Two matches will be held this aft- ernoon in order to complete the semi- finals in the wrestling tourney. In the welterweight class, Larry Packard will compete with C. -L. Dyni. Both of these men have won two matches. The. winner today will meet D. W. Dick- en .in the finals on Saturday and the loser will meet the man defeated in the finals, for second place. In 'he middleweight division, H. G. Dunphy will oppose Ray Mahaffy. Neither man has yet, appeared in the tournament but the odds seem to fav- or Dunphy because of his brilliant work in the exhibition match with J W. Planck. . Today's winner will meet C. P. Haller for the middleweight championship. Semi-finals in the lightweight and heavyweight classes are completed. Only the championship matches remain to be determined. The lightweight contestants will be Larry Packard, who is competing in two weights, and E. W. Gillard. The heavyweight title -lies between J. W. Planck -and G. E. Planck.! The finals will be held next Satur- day afternoon on the main floor of the gymnasium. Today's matches will be run off at 4 o'clock in the wrest- ling room. S UIMMlNGU PRCTICE L PROGRESSES RAPILfY Coach Fears Illinois With Its Balanced Team Above All Other Schools Despite the absence of Coach Dru- lard, swimming practice is progress- ing rapidly under acting Captain Bab- cock, who is handling the team dur- ing Drulard's absence. The latter is expected back today, and upon his- re- xturn will begin the task of weeding out the team, preparatory to the fin- 'al selection which will be made short- rly before the interclass meet on March 27. There is still a dearth of distance hien and plungers. Although it will be possible ,to train some , of the sprinters to become competent dis- tance swimmers, it would help' mat- ters greatly to have men who under- atand such events as the 220 and 440 ;ards swims. There is a, place on the team for just such men, if they can ;make good. Arrangements for New Men A number of excellent men have hesitated about coming out because of the fact that .they are working their way through school and do not believe they could find sufficient time. For the benefit of these men it may be said that their presence at every practice is not required, and they may come at times which will suit their own convenience, either in the afternoons or evenings. Their chanc- es when the team is finally selected will be good if they show any abil- ity. Because of the absence of Coach Drulard and the illness of Intramural Director Mitchell, no manager has as yet been appointed, nor have final steps been taken in regard to the in- terclass meet. When the two are able to get together again, all necessary arrangements will be made and. an- nounced. Meet Planned with M. A. C. A meet with M. A. C. is hoped for on the Saturday preceding Spring vaca- tion. This meet will be held at Lan- .sing, where there are much better fa- cilities for conducting it- successful- ly. Th'e Aggies have one of the larg- est college pools in the country, and as this will bei the ohly meet before Spring vacation,"the trip will be worth trying for. A card index system of keeping rec- ords is -now being prepared. This system will greatly aid Coach Dru- lard in picking the Varsity squad. The times of all men in their partic- ,ularevent will be recorded on these :cards, and the ones whose records show best will undoubtedly be the ones selected when the team is picked; The Michigan Daily. the only mm5-- ing paper in Ann Arbor, contains all the latest campus. city, ad vwnd nows.-Adv.

Lun Nunn Car. r QUALITY ,01 .uNrHES fop Purdue, supporting one of the best teams in the middle west, was the hard luck team of the year. A- bad start lost two games for the Boilermak- ers, but- after the quintet struck its pr'oper stride there was not a Con- ference team met that displayed the same class. The power of the Pur- due team is shown by the 63 to 25 win from Ohio State in the fast game of the year, after Ohio had won the first game two months before 37 to 35. In the closing game the Confer- ence record for high scoring was broken by both team and individual, as White, Purdue running 'guard, 'threw 29 points during the 40 . min- utes - Michigan Starts Poorly Michigan got away to a bad start by dropping six straight games, then braced and played better basketball with the advent of Williams and Kar- pus. The absence of Williams cost Michigan two games on the final trip, Ohio winning the -.first, and Indiana the second, 19 to 18, Monday night. The drubbings that Wisconsin and Minnesota received when the Wolve- rine five was at -the top of its game are indicative of the real power that was in the Michigan machine. Michi- gan ends the season tied for eighth place with Northwestern, both teams having a won and lost percentage of .250. Chicago is the only Conference team to continue practice, as the Maroons meet the University of Pennsylvania in a three game series for th3 national court title next week. The first game will be played in Chicago, Monday, March 22, the- second in Philadelphia,. Wednesday, March 24, and the third, if necessary, at either Princeton or Columbia, the following Saturday, March 27.
