Against the Boilermakers, Michigan did better than in either game last year, and with a game with kalamazoo college Wednesday to prime the nine for the Notre Dame contest Saturday and the second Pur- due battle Saturday, the Wolverines should soon be rounding into top form. The main worry of the Michigan baseball team is pitchers. There are five likely looking hurlers in Ruzicka, Dixon, Liverance, Schultz, and Mudd4 but with theexception of Big Ed, they are practically untried. Coach Fish- er'k big job is to make first ,rate hurl- era of these men. He has been work-_ Ling on them ever since he joinel thel Wolverines' and it looks as if he 'may be succesful. If two of these five men can come through with a little more than aver- age stuff, Michigan's chances for the "Big 'Ten title will be o ,a par with those of Illinois andOhi, ,At the first of the season Ruzicka looked like Michigan's best bet, but in two out of the three games he has strted he has been wild. His main asset, a steam- ing fast ball, is of pajrticular value in Conference baseball, for the Big Ten batters are weak' in hitting fast ones. Fisher has been workingo nEd's wild- ness, aud it is possible tat he can get the big pitcher over his trouble. The other men hate considerable stuff. To date Dixon has pitched the nicest ball, the climax being againste Purdue when he went, six and two- thirds innings with just one hit being made of him. Liverance is close be- hind him, but hashnot had so much experience.: Livy has control, ad a world of nerve besides . neat curve and a fast one. Dick S hultz is also a nice pitcher, and wh .1 he learns a few more of the fine' points of the hurling art from Fisher, he will be a valuable Nman. Mudd hasa had little chance to show his worth, but against the 'weak Y'psilanti opposition he pitched a good game. If the pitching staff comes along in good shape, Michigan will present a formidable nine. The batting to date has been far above that of - former years. The Wolverines batted Wagner and Wallace; of.Purdue, for more hits Saturday than did the 1920 team in either of, two games, and Di~on; and Ricka* held the Boilermakers to few- or hits than did Parks, Ruzicka, and Seheidler last year. The fielding alsq improved against Purdue despite the muddy field, only one error being chalked against Mich- igan, and with continued improvement in all three departments, the Wolver- ine ne will have to be reckoned with ,it. sriously. 4 VARSITY TENNIS NOTICE Candidates for the Varsity ten- nis team are to peport for prac- tice tshis afternoon. , Play will be on ,the cement . court.
