king back into track history of'I
30 years ago we find classed

not, long before he became the

id. His record of being able
the 100 yard dash in 10 flat, the
48, the 880 in 1:53, and the mile

an athletic accomplishment of

Met with Accident '
And then, at its very height, Steve's
career came to an abrupt finish
through an unfortunate accident. One
day when Steve was burning up the
cinders in some foot race, a playful
dog which had wandered out on the
track tripped him up and he was in-
jured so badly that he was never able
to run again. From this point on,
Steve's fame as an athlete became
history.
Turning over to the next page of
his life we find Steve, the coach and
trainer. This move from. famous ath-
lete to coach was naturally the next
move for him, as it always has been
f6r so many others. For five sum-
mers he devoted his energies toward
developing men at the Montreal Ath-
letic club, where he met with varied
success. And then one fall Old Eli
summoned this retired athlete to as-
sist Mike Murphy in training the Yale
squad at New Haven. From there he
went tb 'the University of Maine to
assume the role of track coach and
football trainer, and served that New
England institution for a period of
seven years. He next changed over to
a like position at Ohio State univer-
sity, where he did much towards rais-
ing the athletic prominence. And then
in 1913 Steve came to Michigan, the
ne~w track coach and football trainer.
Made Brilliant Success
From the very start he filled his
position with the greatest credit.
Among his most brilliant performers
that season were such men as Hap
Haff, captain of the team, and one of
the four men who broke the two mile
relay record indoors at the Penn Re-
lay carnival with a mark of 8 minutes
fiat, Jimmy Craig, a hurdler of no
'Wean ability, and Kohler, who han-
dled the weights with a great degree of
deftness. That spring the Wolverine
tracksters finished third in the East-
,ern Intercollegiates and' thus estab-
lished themselves as one of the best
balanced teams in the United States.
The team of 1914, although not so
well balanced, boasted of a great trio
of individual stars. Bond, Smith and
Sward were the men who consistent-
ly swept everything before them in the
short distances that year, and became
known nationally as a result, Second
place in the two mile relay at Phila-
delphia was Michigan's finishing place
in the Penn relays.
With but a small number of veter-
ans on hand if 1915 Michigan went
through a hard schedule with much
credit. In addition to winning every
dual mreet that season, the team boast-
ed of Hal Smith, who gained immor-
tal fame by capturing both the 220
and 100 yard dashes in the Eastern
Intercollegiates. Eddie Carroll cop-
ped third in the mile at the same
mee~t.
1916 Big Year
Michigan had its biggest year in
track in 1916.- The two mile relay
team equaled the world's record when
it defeated the Cornell squad in a
dual race in 7 minutes, 56 3-5 sec-
onds. At the Eastern Intercollegiates
Smith and Carrol were again big point
winners for Michigan, the latter beat-
ing no less a star than Johnny Over-
ton, of Yale.
In 1918, Carl Johnson came into
prominence. Largely through his
splendid work, Michigan's track team
garnered victories in every meet in
which it competed, and won both the
indoor and outdoor Cnference titles.
Carl also took the broad jump in the
Penn relays. Critics that year ac-
corded Michigan's track team the po-
sition of being among the two or three
select in the country.
Johnson Stars
Again in 1919 Johnson was the main
instrument in the Wolverine's clean
sweep of the West. He gained the
distinction of winning four firsts in
the outdoor Conference' meet that
year, thus scoring 20 points for Michi-
gan's victory. The team was not all
Johnson, however, and was well bal-
anced enough to instill fear in the
ranks. of the enemy.
Injuries played havoc with the ,team
of 1920 and things did not pan out as
well as optimistic followers hoped
they would. Johnson, the big point
winner of the indoor season, was in-
jured at the end, and thus incapaci
tated for futher competition until te
Olympic tryouts, and, as a result,
Micrigan finished the year as a poor
second.
Last year the track team, although
far, from being a world beater, won
second place in both the Indoor and
Outdoor Conference meets as well as
in the Illinois Relay carnival. In the
dual meets the tracksters et with
success, the greatest victory being
over the powerful aggregation from
Cornell. Then/in the spring the team
traveled to California only to lose bad-
ly to the California Bears. Butler,
Cruikshank, Wesbrook and Wetzel
were among the bright lights of the
season.
That, precisely, is, what Steve Far-
rell has accomplished as a coach. With
or without good material he has a1-
ways displayed his coaching ability
with great credit. That it is only the
result of his long track experience
seems doubtful. Steve's winning per-
sonality has been responsible, in my
mind, for the greater part of his suc-
cess. This is where Steve, the man,
hand in hand with Steve, the coach,
becomes so plainly evident.
Loyal, selfish in his unselfishness
for Michigan, Steve has shown him-
self to be the possessor of many
sterling qualities. Always cheerful to
his men, he has given unstintedly of
his time and effort towards turning
out good track teams, and what is
more, men who have received a thor-
ough schooling in the school of clean
sport.
Jolly, yet sympathetic, reserved in
his way, yet ever so likeable, Steve
Farell looms up as a type of man-
hood of which all Michigan can justly
be proud.

INJURIES KEEP NOTRE'
DAME OUT Of RELAYS
(Special to The Daily)
South Bend, Ind., March 1. - With
the possible exception of a medley
relay team, Notre Dame wil not be
represented at the Illinois relays Sat-
urday. Injury which Gus Desch sus-
tanned at the Illinois-Notre Dame meet
last Saturday will not only keep him
from the dash and hurdles, but will
prevent the mile relay team from par-
ticipating. Montague, another member
of the mile quartet, will not be able
to run. Bill Hayes is still out of con-
dition.
