1i O SQUAD LEAVING
FOR M. A. C. CARNIVAL
For more than a week weight men'
on the Varsity track squad have been
working out on Ferry field. Undaunt-
ed by the snappy weather and a wet
muddy field, a half dozen athletes
have been out throwing the discus,
javelin, and hammer. At other times
they have been in the gymnasium
working with the shot.
The men have begun their training
for the California meet, which is but
a month away and, while as yet there
has been no competition or distance
trials, when they do begin there is
certain to be the closest kind of com-
petition. among them for places on
the squad that will leave for the
Poppy state. So far Hoffman, Stipe,
Dunne, Tidy, Jacobs, and Van Orden
have been training under the coach's
direction. Hoffman and Jacobs have
been out on the field for more than a
month. All have been spending their
time .up to the present in getting
themselves in trim and in perfecting
their form rather than in trying for
distance.
Distance Squad Hit Again
Being weak from the start in the
mile and two mile events, the track
squad has been further weakened in
these eevnts by the loss of several
men. Denton, the brightest prospect
for the mile that Steve had, has been
forced to leave school. Hofstater, a
distance man of great promise par-
ticularly in the two mile, is unable to
continue with the squad because of in-
eligibility. One or two others though
not as good as the two men above
have also suffered from the latter
cause. These losses leave the squad
quite weak in the distances.
Coach Farrell has shifted Douglas
from the half mile to the mile in an
effort to strengthen his milers. Other
men with whom he is working are
Standish, Everett, and Lukins. All
have improved since the beginning of
the year but will bave to continue if
Michigan is. to count on them for
points in the Conference meets. The
two milers who up to now have
shown the most are Freeborne and
Whittemore. Here also there is room
for improvement but it is to be said in
favor of the men that they have been
working hard.
1 Men Go to Lansing
The meet this week end at M. A. C.
in which the Varsity is entered and
to which Coach Farrell is taking 15
men is in the nature of a track car-
nival. It is the first to be held at
Lansing and a Michigan team is be-
ing entered to give the men their last
bit of competition before the Indoor
Conference meet at Evanston next
Friday and Saturday.
M. A. C. has extended Michigan a
special invitation to run a two mile
relay race with, the Farmers as the'
feature event of the program. For
this purpose, Steve is taking the fol-
lowing half milers, from which he will

Former Michigan Ball Coach Building

ORANGE AND BLUE MATERIAL
SHOWS SIGNS OF STRENGTH
(By a Staff Correspondent)
Urbana, Ill., March 10.--Carl Lund-
gren, baseball coach at the Univer-
sity of Illinois and last year coach of
the University of Michigan nine, is
confronted with the task of building
a team from almost green material.
There is not one veteran pitcher
back, except Arrasmith, who is trou-
bled with a bad arm and who was
only a second string hurler last year.
McCurdie is on hand to work as a re-
ceiver, and Julie Mee, said by some
to be the best shortstop in the Con-
ference, will be out for practice in a
short time. One or two of the 1920
outfield have returned this year.
Since Feb. 1 Lundgren has been
working in the Armory with his can-
didates, and a week ago ordered the
first outdoor practice. Although not
as satisfactory as a regular diamond
because of its small size and often
broken surface, the Armory gives the
Illini a chance to work on dirt, a
condition which is more favorable for
development than in other Conference
schools.
Personnel Still Undecided
From the workouts to date, Lund-
gren has not been able to get suffi-
cient line on his candidates to have
any idea as to the personnel of his.
team. At present he has four sopho-
more pitchers who stand out above
the other hurlers. For the first base-
man's job there are a number of can- IF YOU WANT THE LATEST de-
