THE MICHIGAN DAILY _
20 PITCHERS FIGHT FOR
REGULARi TASTY DUTY
ARE BEING GROOMED BY FISHER
TO MEET SEASONED DIXIE
NINES
Hampered by the inclemency of the
weather Coach Fisher was forced to
limit yesterday's practice to battery
men alone. The Michigan, mentor is
of the opinion that the Wolverines'
chances this year depend largely upon
the ability of the pitching staff to be in
the best of condition when the Confer-
ence season opens. Unfavorable weath-
er conditions have thus far worked a
serious handicap upon the mounds-
men for they have been unable to sat-.
isfactorily try their arms out duringM
the full route of a nine inning game,
a feat they will be called upon to do
before the Southern trip ends. With
a schedule of nine gimes to be play-
ed within the short space of 10 days
the Wolverines will be faced with a
serious problem in the matter of twir-
lers. Coach Fisher realizes the need
of having his men primed for the heavy
road trip that will face them April3
7 to 17, and is bending every effort.
to condition his pitching staff before
they are forced to meet teams that
have been on the outdoor diamondi
for more than a month.
One redeeming feature of Michigan'sl
plight is the abundance of mound
material that Coach Fisher has to
work with. More than a score of hurl-
ers are working out daily and no less
than eight of these men will rjaake ser-
ious bids for Varsity positions. WithI
the date set for the trip fast ap-
proaching there is a marked increase
in the competition among the mounds-
men as well as among the other play-
ers. No defin;ite announcements have
been made by the coach as to how
many battery men he will carry, but
from the history of previous trips it
is safe to guess that no more than two'
catchers and five pitchers will makej
the trip. Captain Vick and Blatt are
certain to be named for tlie receiving
duties which Dixon, Liverance and
Shultz seem reasonably sure to be
numbered among the pitchers with
Elliott, Mudd, Smith, Noonan, Stryker,
Baker and O'Hara left to fight it out
for the remaining two or three places.
Fisher is working with all of these
men giving them valuable pointers
from his long expedience as to
some of the tricks boxmen should
know. The majority of the hurlers
have shown vastimprovement under
personal instruction given them by
Coach Fisher and their various type's
of delivery are being slowly reshaped
and made moro effective by the appli-
cation of time and effort to Fisher's
methods.
WET WEATHER HANDICAPS-
. ARSITY TEN IS SQUAD
Poor weather has proved more than
a little handicap to aspirants for
Michigan's tennis team. Since the first,
call for canididates, issued some three
weeks ago, the racquet-wielders have
encountered but few ideal days for
play and, as a result, have failed to
get the most of these few weeks set
aside for the general purpose of con-
ditioning before the spring recess.
Men Need Practice
Coach Walter K. Wesbrook is an-
xious to have the men who have Var-
sity aspirations in the best of condi-
tion for the grind that will follow im-
mediately after tlie recess period, for
it is then that the competitive matches
will determine the personnel of the
team will begin. He asks that all of
the candidates get in as' much prac-
'tice on the concrete courts as they
possibly can before vacation that they
may be at their best for the matches
which are to follow.

About 20 men have turned out for
practice thus far. Many of this num-
her show great promise and yet, there'
is suffiicient opportunity for any nunm-
ber of others, who have theinclina-
tion, to come out to show their wares.
It is hoped that more men, will make
their appearance during the course of
the next two weeks. The schedule for
the season is in the making, and the
team is assured a worthy list of
matches, including an extensive East-
ern trip.
Two Veterans Out
Among the candidates best known to
the campus who have been working
out are .aptain Merkle and George
Reindel, both members of' the 19211
team, Julian L. Zemon and F. Wor-
cester, a duo who have been awarded
AMA's, Rorich, the winner of the 1921
'All-campus tournament, Sanchez,
Kline and Shaefer. It is practically
impossible to pass judgment on - the
merits of these men at this early
stage, yet, all present indications
point toward a fair tennis team for
the Maize 'and Blue this. year.
