any other to be held in this couiltry
during the coming year .
Thirty-four Events on List
Twice as many events, exclusive of
preliminaries, will be included in thq
games this year as were run in the
1921 meet. In comparison with the 17
events found on the list last year,, the
1922 games will embrace a total of 34
final events and 10 preliminaries, an
addition of 17 final 'events and severalr
preliminaries over the last previous
schedule.
Events to appear for the first time
Ion a Drake relay program will be the
440 yard low hurdles, the 440 yard
relay, in two sections, .another section
of the university one mile. relay, the
pole vault, broad jump, discus throw,
high jump, shot put, javelin throw, and
the special match mile race, in addi-
tion -to six new high school events in
which competition will be limited to,
prep schools only.
Over 1,000 Athletos Expected
Athletic officials at Drake are pre-
paring to receive from 1,000 to 1,500,
representing 35 to 40 universities and
colleges and approxiniately 90 high
schools, who -are expected to partici-
pate in the games.
Among this number wiI be found
many of the country's greatest ath-
letes. Gus Desch of Notre Dame, hold-
e' of the world's record in the 440 yard
low hurdles, will be seen in action
in the classic in company with his fam-
ous teammate, Bill Hayes, former na-
tional champion of the 100. yard dash.
Sundt of Wisconsin, a weight man,
Platten of Wisconson, and Osborne of
Illinois, loth high jumpers, Everett
Bradley of Kansas . univesity,. and
3rutus Hamilton are several others of
the widely known tracksters who

should make competition in all events
keen and of the highest calibre.
A number of events stafd in danger
of being shattered this week end. The
four mile record made by Wisconsin'
in 1916 in 18 minutes, 2 seconds, is
sure to fall, several teams entered
having covered that distance in less
time in previouskmeets this year. The
shot put mark will, in all likelihood,
pe another one to fall. 'Of course, the
winning marks made for the events
which are to appear on the lists for
the first time are sure to stand at
least for a year, if not longer.
Fourteen Teams In Mile Relay
In the mile relay more than 14 teams
are entered in the university section,
including Drake, Illinois, Michigan,
Iowa, Chicago, Minnesota, Northwest-
ern, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Kansas,
Iowa State, Oklahoma, Missouri Grin-
nell, and the University of South Da-
kota.
One of the features of the meet will
be the 440 yard relay. This is expect-
ed to prove popular on account of the
large number of crack sprinters enter-'
ed in the short distance events. For
this same reason, the dashes, listed
among the special events should at-
tract an unusual amount of interest.
Famous university and college
coaches who will put in their appear-l
ance with their respectivd teamsj
,should help to create an atmosphere
that is present only at the greatest
of track carnivals. Tom Jones of Wis-
consin, Steve Farrell of Michigan,
Knute Rockne of Notre Dame, Harry
Gill of Illinois, Bob Simpson of Mis-
souri, "Indian" Schulte of. Nebraska,
and Howard Jones of Iowa, are but a
few of the "greats" who will be much
in evidence.

Rocknwill be the official referee,'
Jones of Wisconsin, thie official judge,
and John L. Griffith the official starter
of the meet.'
Results by Radio
For the first time in the history of
athletics the results of a' big track
meet willbe hashed through the air
by wireless as rapidly as the events
are concluded., The Kiwanis club of
Des Moines has been granted permis-
sion by the United tSates government
to use radio instruments in broadcast-
ing the results. Colleges and uni-
versities in nearly 20 states have an-
nounced that *recelving sets are be-
ing installed by them in order to re-
ceive the results of the meet. De-
pendent upon the s'uccessful outcome
of this experiment, as it were, is the
future use of the radio in broadcasting
the results of important athletic con-
tests.
All in all, the Drake relays should
be 'a real track event.. Each year it
seems -the athletic officials at the' uni-
versity have'enlarged the affair so that
now it has expanded to a most surpris-
ing degree. The results of the carnival
should challenge nation wide interest.

SPRING FOOTBALL MEN
RECEIVE TOUGHDRL
BLOCKING, CHARGING, KICKING
TARE UP MAJOR PART OF
HARD WORKOUT
Coaches Yost and Wieman put the
men who are out for spring football
through the hardest gridiron drill thus
far yesterday '-afternoon in the an-
nual spring practi.ce which is now be-
ing held on Ferry field. The men were
given more extensive instruction in
the art of blocking and charging an
opponent and the coaches were well
satisfied with the way in which the'
men followed their teachings..;
Stress Kicking
" Wieman also gave the men quite a
bit of passing and kicking, especially
drop and place kicking. The coaches
spent some time working with the
place kickers, perfecting them in the
manner of gaining points by this meth-
od.
The men were divided into elevens
and given a snappy signal practice
to end the day's workout. This was
done so that the men might increase
their ability to get away as fast as pos-
sible with the passing of the ball to
the backfield. A number of the dlf'r-
enbt teams have shown a marked im-
provement in this event since it was
first started as a part of the workout.
Correct Individual Faults '
Quite a few of the men were given
individual coaching by the two Var-
sity mentors to. correct minor faults
which some of them had. Whenever
"Tad" sees a man doing something in
a way which is not the right one he.
explains the better method to that man
at once so that, most of the individual
minor faults are rapidly disappearing.

Members ot Michigans boxing teami
have been enjoying a period.of enforc-
ed iinactivtiy while waiting for further
developments in the scheduling of
meets with other institutions. Sever-
al of the men have been indulging in'
light workouts in order that they may
not slip too far down the ladder of
condition but Mlne have done any real
training since the show on April 6.
It is expected that a meet will mate-
rialize with Detroit Junior college and
at the first inkling of such a meet the
mit wielders will get back in the har-
ness to prepare for the Detroiters.
Because of the success of the box-
ing show which was given 'on April 6,
Coach Sullivan feels confident that
boxing Is here to stay and that a big
step was taken toward intercollegiate
-meets. Because of this fact the coach
will attempt to schedule meets which
will be held here in order that the
students may have a chance to pass
upon the sport more definitely.
Meets will be impossible until a ring
is installed but arrangements are be-
ing made to have one in place in Wat-
erman gymasium before school ends
for the year..As far as is known the
ring will be as near regulation size
as can be conveniently accommodated
in the gymnasium but the size of the
ring doesn't matter so much consider-
ing that Dempsey put Carpentier away
in a ring that was under regulation by
six feet.
