TEN TEAMS
FINI SH INTIE

(Continued from Page One) ;
The two defeats handed Illinois by
Mihigan, and Chicago's sudden re-
versal of form, by which the Orange
and Blue was defeated 29 to 26, were
the only things that kept Coach Win-
ters' five from Conference honors. At
midseason the Urbana team looked to
be a certain bet for first place, but
Michigan, Chicago, and Purdue ad-
ministered, defeats, and Illinois closed
the season in fourth position, with
seve games won and five lost.
Purdue Uncertain
Purdue experienced an up and down
season, flirting with first place all
winter, and going there only after the
last game had been snatched from
Iowa. Purdue was conceded to have
one of the most powerful teams in the
race, but later events have not borne
this out, for, since the defeat register-
ed by Michigan, Purdue has been
hanging in the first division more by
good fortune than by good playing.
The reversal of form that enabled the
Boilermakers to win, 29 to 19, from
Illinois at Urbana was one of the sur-
prises of the year.
Iowa and Minnesota proved in-and-
outers, teams that would, win one
day, and be outclassed the next. Iowa
got .a late start, but proceeded to
mix up Conference results by winning
from Indiana and Puidue. Minnesota
won from Wisconsin in the first game
between the two quintets, the second
contest going to theBadgers.
Iowa still has one more game to
play, with Northwestern, and will
probably go into a tie with Indiana
and Minnesota, as the Purple will be
extremely fortunate to win from the
Hawkeyes.
Chicago, 1920 title winners, fell in-
to evil ways and finished in seventh
position. The Maroons opened the
seasoin favorites' for the title, and
seemed invincible, defeating Wiscon-
sin and Iowa, but lost to Illinois and
Michigan. The last minute rally that
defeated the Viiversity , of Illinois
showed that there was real power in
the Maroon machine. Birkhoff, Chi-
cago forward, was the highest indi-
vidaul scorer of the season.
Unexpected Reverses
Ohio State and Northwestern prov-
ed to be the chopping-blocks of the
year. Northwestern started well by
gaining a one pbint verdict over Wis-
consin, but failed to dome through in
any of the succeeding games. Ohio
State, defeating Michigan 22 to 10 at
Ann Arbor, was later defeated by the
Wolverines in Columbus 36 to 22. The
Ohio team had power but failed to
make the most of opportunities.
The entire season was featured by
unexpected reverses, handed by the
tail-enders to the leaders, and by the
many well balanced teams that make
the selection of any one champion al-
most impossible.

E 22nthusiasm For
Wrestling Augurs
Fast Tournament'
Waterman gymnasium will be the
scene of the best wrestling tourna-
ment in the history of the mat game
at Michigan, if iprepent indications
are carried out.
Interest is at a high point, the
wrestling room in the gymnasium is
filled to capacity every afternoon, and
a record list of entrants in the tourna-
ment is expected. Many have already
signed on the lists in the wrestling
room. All of those that wish to com-
pete and have not already signifie4
their intention of so doing must sign
by the end of the week.
Numbers of students are taking the
opportunity offered to acquaint them-
selves with the game, and many oth-
ers, old hands at the sport, are work-
ing out daily with the aid of experts.
The preliminaries in the tourna-
ment will start early next weeks, and
the finals will be run off as soon as
the candidates have been weeded out,
which should take some time, to judge
by the number of men that have en-
tered already.

INTERCLASS BASKETBALL
GAMES HOLD INTEREST
Spectators at the interclass basket-
ball games in Waterman gymnasium
Monday night were rewarded by see-
ing the best game that has been play-
ed in the league this season when
Crawforth's soph lits defeated the
lower dents 34 to 29. The score was
tied at 26 all at the end of the regular
playing time and an overtime 'period
of five minutes was necessary to de-
cide the game. Brooks of the dent team
was the particular star of the game,
registering nine field baskets and
five out of six free throws. Dudek was
the strongest of the Lit players and
contributed materially to his team's
victory.
The upper laws defeated the lower
laws 29 to 5, holding their opponents
safe at all times and scoring at will.
The fresh engineers beat the upper
dents 13 to 7 in a loosely played
match in which Piggot of the winners
did the bulk of the scoring for his
team, counting five field goals.
Junior engineers were too strong
for Merner's fresh lits and took the
long end of a 22 to 11 score. Tracy
and Kipke did some excellent guarding
for the losers.
Games tonight are as follows; At
7:30 o'clock, homoeops vs. the winner
of the upper law-upper medic game,
foresters vs. the loser of the upper
law-uper medic game, Merner's fresh
lits vs. the pharmics, Sterling's fresh
lits vs. the lower laws.
Competition in the race for the in-
terfraternity athletic cup will be re-
sumed in the fraternity track meet in
Waterman gymnasium March 15 and

17. The preliminaries will be run off
on Tuesday night, March 15, and the
finals on Thursday night. Last year
the meet consisted of nothing but re-
lays but this season is planned to in-
clude the standard events with the
exception of the pole vault. There
will also be novelty events, such as a
tug of war, pentathlon, and medley
relay. It is the plan of the intramural
department to make this meet bigger
than it has been in the past and a
large entry list is anticipated. Frater-
nities planning to enter may do so at
any time in the Intramural Athletic
office, room 3, Press building.
An insufficient number of entries for
the interclass track meet which will
be held in Waterman gymnasium Sat-
urday of this week has been received
to date to properly conduct the
event. Entry sheets are posted on the
Varsity bulletin board in Waterman
gymnasium and in the Intramural
Athletic office, room 3, Press build-
ing. All prospective entrants are urg-
ed to sign the sheet at once.
