IOWA HARD MIT BY LOSS
OF HAMILTON, 1920
STARI
Michign here last spring, is back, and
there are many other veterans at the
Columbus school. To leave the Buck-
eyes out of consideration as a real
contender would be a serious error.
What Carl Lundgren has been able
to develop at Illinois is problematical.
Julie Mee, considered by many to be
the best shortstop in the Conference,
will be his mainstay. In Hellstrom, a
sophomore, he also has another de-
pendable infielder, and some of his
Conference baseball is still in such
an undeveloped state that even an
approximate forecast of the strength
of the Conference nines may go far
astray. In all probability, however,
the teams which finished well in the
running last season will be the chief
'competitors.
It is difficult to determine how the
Wolverines will compare with the oth-
er Conference schools. The loss of
Captain Parks dealt Michigan a sev-
ere blow, but Coach Pratt is developing'
an aggregation which should be a
contender. With Pete VanBoven, the
captain, at shortstop, Michigan has the
nucleus for a fast infield, especially'
with such men as Uteritz at third and,
Johnson on first. Karpus is a vet.
eran second sacker, and Klein is push-
ing him hard for the place. Pete
should be able to fill Mike Knode's
position quite capably, and Uteritz
can be depended upon to handle third,
as well as did Mraz. Karpus and3
Klein are probably not as consistent1
keystone men as was VanBoven last
year. The Wolverine gardeners will
be up to the 1920 standard, and the
catching staff will be better. If Ru-
zika can find his 1918 form now that
he is forced to be again the main-k
stay of the nine, Michigan will be7
well fixed with capable hurlers, forI
Liverance, Schultz, and Dixon show
promise, although untried. The south-t
ern trip will test the strength of the
Wolverines and throw some light on
what may be expected from them in
the Conference race.
Ohio Loses Two Men
Ohio, which finished second last
year, loses only two members of the
1920 team, and the Scarlet and Gray
can be relied upon to turn out a
formidable nine. Fish, the hurler who
veteran outfielders have returned this
year. There are no veteran hurlers
on the Indian squad, although Lund-
gren has apparently turned out some
good men judging from the Illini
southern trip. For a first sacker Mc-
Curdy, catcher in 1920, has been shift-
ed to the initial bag and a new man is
being used behind the plate. With
Lundgren the main element and some
likely material, Illinois also figures as
a strong contender in the Big Ten
race.
Unless a wonder is developed at
Iowa, Coach Jimmy Ashb-re will
probably not be as successful this year
as last. The Hawkeye mentor was
hard hit by Captain Hamilton's grad-
uation, and it is doubtful if Iowa will
threaten the leaders as seriously this
season.
Purdue wills figure in the race to a'
certain extent. The Boilermakers
pdssessed a pair of dependable pitch-
ers in Wagner and Wallace in 1920,
and both these men are back. Tbe
Lafayette nine was no easy one for
Michigan to defeat last year, and the
other Conference schools will find
them difficult opponents.
Badgers Get Late Start
The late spring at Wisconsin with no
southern trip hampers the develop-
ment of a baseball team at Madison,
but the Badgers still possessed -a
fighting combination lasjt year. It
took extra innings for the Wolverines
to overcome them in 1920, and the in-
jury to their shortstop in the game at
Ann Arbor kept the Badgers from
threatening the Wolverines more than
they did.
Indiana must also be reckoned with
and Chicago may develop something,
although the Maroons' in Fall sports
seem-to have slumped from their pre-
vious high standards. There are pos-
sibilities, however, that the Midway
team may equal the nines of previous
years, but little is known of its pow-
ers. Northwestern, just taking up
baseball, will probably have a weak
nine, and Minnesota has again refus-
ed to permit a diamond team.
