to
KEEN COMPETITION AMONG
CANDIDATES IN EVIDENCE
Coach Derrill Pratt has all of his'
75 baseball candidates working stren-
uously in,Waterman gymnasium. The!
early practices which were begun be-
tween semesters are devoted largely
to bunting and fielding, while the
coach concludes every workout by
batting some fast bounders to the in-
fielders. Keen competition and a
willingness to work is the prevailing
spirit around the gymnasium and the
men are rapidly limbering up and
rounding into form.
Several Berths Vacant
Varsity berths left vacant by the
graduation of Knode, Langenhan,
Newell, Kirchgessner, Froemke and
Scheidler from last year's champion
nine are attracting the aspirants from
whom the Varsity mentor must pick:
his new team. Every hopeful will be
given a chance to exhibit his skill and
no cuts will be made until the men
have had more practice and are able
to show up to better advantage.
Infield positions offer the greatest
opportunities and are attracting a
large group of diamond men, for of
last season's infield Pete Van Boven
is the lone veteran out for the team,.
Karpus, basketball captain, alternate
at second and third on the 1920 Var-
sity, has promised to be out after the
close of the court season. Middle-
ditch, Hoffman, Novak, Broome, Dunn,
. Uteritz, Turnbull and a number of
other. players are trying out for in-
field jobs. Uteritz and Turnbull are
recruits from last year's All-fresh
team, while the other men have been
out for the Varsity in previous sea-
sons.
Perrin Veteran Fielder
Of the outfielders, Jack Perrin is
the only veteran of former squads.
Outfielders are numerous, but until
practice on the diamond is possible
these outer gardners wil have little
opportuity to perform. Genebach, re-
ceiver on last year's nine and outfield-
er on the 1918 team, is working with
the squad. Genie is a speedy fielder,
and can be used in the field when not
working behind the bat. Jack Dunn,
another player with experience, is
trying for an outfield berth.
The moundsmen are not taking any
chances with their arms as yet and
are content with light workouts.
Pitching material is not numerous
and any additions will greatly bolster
up this department. Coates, Robey,
Genebach and several others are do-
ing the bulk of the reeciving in the-
cage. Coach Pratt is anxious to have
all men with previous baseball ex-
perience report immediately and ex-
pects to see a larger squad on the
floor in a short time.
DONAVAN GIVES UP POSITION
AS R AVARD TRACK COACI
CORNELL MAY ROW
AGAINST ENGLISH
Interest of the United States and
England is again centered in the
prospects for an international athletic
contest. This time to be a rowing
race between Cornell and a combined
crew representing Oxford and Cam-
bridge. According to a report in a re-7
cent issue of the London Standard,
Cornell is seriously considering Issu-
ing a challenge for a rowing race
with an English crew, the contest to
be run off at the famous "Cornell
Week," which is held late in May.1
There seems to be a favorable
chance for the invitation to be accept-
ed, in which case the event may be-
come an annual one to be rowed alter-
nately In this country and in Eng-
land. The talk of this international
crew race follows close upon Cor-
nell's cross country meet with Ox-
ford and Cambridge, a Princeton track
meet in England, and the appearance
of a combined Oxford-Cambridge two
mile relay team at the Penn games
last spring.
HOCKEY TEAM READY
RFOR WEEKAENO GAMES
WISCONSIN MAY PLAY HERE TO-
DAY AND SATUR-
DAY
Indications of returning cold weath-
er have spurred the informal hockey
team to renewed effort and the best
practice session of the season was held
Tuesday morning at the Coliseum
when two full teams. went through a
spirited workout lasting an hour and
a half. Several minor injuries were
received during the 90 minute work-
out, Barkell being the heaviest suffer-
er with two cuts on the forehead, one
of which required several stitches to
close.
Players and followers of the team
were disappointed by the last minute
cancellation of the two games with the
University of Wisconsin which were
to have been played at Madison last
week. The Badgers play all of their
games on natural ice which was so
badly destroyed by several days of
warm weather that it was impossible
to skate on the lake. Manager Fletch-
er is now waiting for word from Mad-
ison as to whether the Cardinals will
appear here this week to play the two
games scheduled for Friday night and
Saturday afternoon at the Coliseum.
These two matches, if played, will be
the hardest test the Wolverine squad
has had this season as the Wisconsin
sextet has made an enviable record
in the games it has been able to play.
It is practically the only aggregation
in the Conference that has as good a
record for the season as has Michigan
and a meeting of the two will be well
worth watching. In case the Wiscon-
sin games are not played it is plan-
ned to bring one of the Detroit teams
to the Coliseum, probably Saturday
afternoon.
Negotiations are now under way
with the Carnegie Institute team for
a game at Pittsburg next Monday
night. The Tech officials are anxious
