FRIDY, A~VRY 1, 121.THE MICHIGAN DAILY i5o LOST STARS BLOW TO. TRACK SQUAD Necessity of Improvement Seen in Material for Many Events MICHIGAN HAS STRENGTH IN SPRINTS, 440, AND 880 Members of Coach Farrell's track squad have settled down to the slow task necessary for varsity develop- ment. Although the first meet on the Varsity's schedule is several months off, Waterman gymnasium is the daily scene of whole hearted workouts on the part of all the candidates. Earn- estness characterizes the work of every man and the job of making a team that will compare favorably with previous track outfits is fully appre- ciated by the coaches and every try- out. Varsity Loses Stars Having lost the services of Carl Johnson, Baker, Beardsley, and Cross, four of last year's outstanding stars, Steve is confronted with the extreme- ly difficult task of replacing these men. For the hurdles in place of last year's versatile captain and running mate, namely Johnson and Beardsley, the coach is grooming Cruikshank and Spurrier. Other men are working on the event also. Stipe and other mem- bers of the football squad are giving promise of being able to fill in fairly good measure the shoes of Baker in the weight events. Cross leaves Wes- brook and Slaughter to fully take care of the pole vault and Michigan's strength in this event is guaranteed. Naylor is another good candidate for the vaulting squad. For the high jump, Walker is showing good form and bids well to handle the event fav- orably. Premier strength is to be found in the dash squad and in the quarter mile. Losch, Simmons, and Harvey form the backbone of a powerful list of sprinters. The quarter mile with such men as Captain Butler, Wetzel, Joyner, Wheeler, should be able to take care of itself in the best of com- pany. Burkholder, to lead the half milers, is Michigan's best bet for this event. Other men are being worked with to develop into suitable candi- dates for the half mile and mile: runs. The two mile squad also will' bear developing. Others Should Develop Being still very early in the sea- son, there are other promising candi- dates on the squad who are bound to come to the front before the schedule begins. Improvements are discerni- ble, and by the time March rolls around with the first meet, Coach Farrell will have a fairly well bal- anced team. Of the indoor contests, the meet with Cornell will be the track classic of the year. This year the Big Red team will come to Ann Arbor for a return meet. It will be remembered that the relay race was the deciding event in last year's meet between the two schools. Sunday Night Lunches at Teet's Dining.Rooms, 805 E. Huron.-Adv.
