THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAC .._ - .. U? P T S. ....! ____ I r MICHIGAN LEAVES FOR FINAL GAMES' Twelve Men on Squad Led by Coach1 Mather to Columbus and Urbana ILLINOIS CONTEST TO BE * OF DECISIVE NATURE Twelve men, including Coach Math- er, Manager Logan, and. Trainer Hahn, composed the Michigan squad that left late last night for Columbus,, via Chicago, to play Ohio State uni- versity and Illinois in the final two games of the 1921 schedule. The players that were taken are: Captain Karpus, Miller, Whitlock, Dunne, Weiss, Rea, Williams, LeGalley, and Carpon. The two games, especially the sec- ond, will be among the hardest of the year. Ohio holds one verdict over the Wolverine, having won early in the year here in Ann Arbor, 22 to 10. Since that time Michigan has improv- ed'so greatly that there is no compar- ison between the team that took the floor that night, and the one that the State court followers will see in ac- tion tonight. Ohio Improved The result of the game, however, is no certainty. Ohio seems to have im- proved of late, if the 32 to 35 score the Illinois game may be taken as any criterion. The only other ex- planation of that game possible, is that Illinois was off form, which is not likely. Michigan has shown the most mar- velous comeback of any team in the Conference. After the disastrous ear- ly season games, the Wolverines seem- ed to get under way, and in the last five straight games have had little difficulty in winning at will. While the Illinois contest was a scrap from start to finish, the Maize and Blue was ahead at all times, and showed suf- ficient superiority to merit the vic- tory. Purdue was harder to defeat, and only the Michigan drive that net- ted five field baskets in the second half overcome the Boilermaker lead. Ohio is at present a team that Mich- igan should defeat. The Red and Gray has had a bad season, and the Mich- igan victory is one of the two that they have been able to score this year. On dope Michigan is the favorite, and barring overconfidence, Mather's quin- tet should even the season game score tonight. Title in Doubt At Urbana Monday night, Michigan faces what is the most difficult test of the year. As events are now shap- ing, the Conference title will hang in the balance in that game. Wisconsin should win from both Ohio and Min- nesota, and if Michigan wins from Ohio and then from Illinois, Wiscon- sin, Illinois and -Michigan will be in- volved in a triple tie for first place, with no conclusive way of determin- ing even a newspaper champion, since Illinois will have lost twice to Michi- gan, Michigan twice to Wisconsin and Wisconsin twice to Illinois. The only hope for a title on the part of the Il- inos team is to win from Michigan. For this reason, if for no other, the game should be the hardest fought contest of the year. But this is far from being the only reason. When Michigan and Illinois meet there are too many old scores to avenge for either team to let the other win with- out a counter argument. Michigan has the two court games lost last season to make up for, and Illinois will be out for blood after the Michigan vic- tory two weeks ago. The fact that the game is in the Illini bailiwick will aid the Orange and Blue to a great extent, as will the return of Carney, if he is able to stand the gaff for the full time. Swimmers Seek Immediate Sanction; To Circulate Huge Petition Honday 39 2 E N T ER ED IN Varsity swimmers will petition the Board in Control for immediate recog- nition so that the team may be sent to the Conference meet according to plans decided upon at a meeting heldi Wednesday night at the Union. An attempt will be made to secure everyt available signature on Monday, whent tables will be placed about the cam-c pus and opportunities given the stu- dent body to affix their names. Coach Drulard is enthusiastic overA the project. "There is no just rea- son," he says, "why Michigan should not be represented. We have waited long enough for the completion of the1 pool, and have organized a team that compares favorably with the best in the Big Ten. It is only fair that the t Intramural Items t Freshmen basketeers played the best game of the evening Thursday night in the interlass basketball tournamett which is being run off at Waterman gymnasium when Merner's Fresh lits defeated Sterling's Fresh lits by a 21 to 16 count. Deng played a brilliant game for the losing five scoring all of the points credited to his team. The Homeops defeated the Foresters 10 to 4 in a game in which. both teams had difficulty in scoring. The Junior Engineers beat the litsI of the same class 20 to 2. The '21 lit team forfeited to the senior engineers. Only one game is scheduled for the week end in the interclass tourney, the lower medics meeting the upper medics at 1:30 o'clock this afternoon in Waterman gymnasium. Plans for the annual interclass track meet have been completed by the intramural department which an- nounces that event for Saturday, March 12, in Waterman gymnasium. This is the date of the Northwestern dual meet at Evanston and the re- sultant absence of the Varsity track team will leave the floor free for the interclass meet. All men who wish to enter may sign up at the intramur- al office in the Press building until the. day before the meet. It has been decided to award four places in each event and the points will be given as follows: First place five points, second threetthird two, fourth one. A man must make at least two points to win numerals, and any first year man who is entitled to numerals will be given those of the All-fresh track team. In the past the yearling track men have been picked and awarded numerals without having to actually compete for them. This year they will be forced to win their numerals in open competition. swimmers who have worked so hard during the past successful season be given the opportunity to meet other Conference schools on an equal foot- ing." From 8 o'clock in the morning un- til 2 o'clock in the afternoon solici- tation for signatures will take place on the campus. During the evening various fraternities and clubs will be visited in the endeavor to obtain any signatures still unattached to the pe- tition. Ahletes From Forty-Two Seek Records in Meet Urbana Tonight Schools at The four mile entries are Minnesota Kansas Aggies, Kansas university, Wisconsin and Illinois. Ames, with the same team that won the race at last year's carnival, rules a slight favorite in the long grind, although Illinois has some milers who average below 4:35. Yates, McGinnis and Wharton of the Indian squad, are Coach Gill's hopes of victory. Competition in High Jump Next to the mile relay, 'the high jump should attract the most spirited competition. Alberts, the -Illinois wonder who recently defeated Mur- phy, of Notre Dame, national cham- pion, has cleared the bar at six feet, three and one half inches. Murphy who is credited with an even higher mark of six feet, five inches, is out to retain his laurels. Evan, of Earl- ham, and Osborne, another Indian jumper, have marks well over six feet. Bradley, of Kansas,-is likewise a jumper of merit. All of the schools are entered in the 75 yard dash, one of the special events. Losch, Simmons and Kelly, of Michigan; Hayes, of Notre Dame; and Kelly, of Minnesota, are the best known entries. Hayes, the Notre Dame sprinter, is perhaps the fast- est 100 yard man in the middle west, while Losch, of Michigan, came within 1-5 of a second of the world's record in the 75-yard dash at Cornell last year.
