That relay, by the way, was one
of the big features of the meet al-
though no records were broken. The
runners from both teams were prac-
tically neck and neck at every turn,
Joyner, Seimons, and Purdy all hold-
ing their own and Martin coming in
with revenge on Crozier, who defeated
him by six inches in the 440, by barely
nosing out the Cornell star at the fin-
ish.
Michigan had few' third place win-
ners in the entire meet,vthe Wolverines
taking -nine out of eleven first places
and second in' each of the other two.
but in addition, Eddie Higgins cop-
ped a nice third in the 50:yard dash,
Nels Joyner raced across to a third
in the 440, Nufer surprised with a
similar position in the high jump, al-
though he was forced to share it with
Novotny of Cornell, and Cushing had
an easy time taking the last counting
place in the hall mile after Reinke and
Hattendorf had preceeded him.-
All in all it -was a thoroughly suc-
cessful victory. There are no "ifs"
and "it might have beens", and Steve
Farrell is looking forward with the
greatest of optimism to-April 27, when,
Michigan will be represented at the
annual Drake relays at Des Moines,

The other bouts of the afternoon
were only partly interesting to the

first two of the decisions were given
in the 125 pound class, Doty securingI

Edwin J.. Mather, Varsity basketball
coach, favors either Niles on Birming-

Both, according to Mather, have fast
quintets which have clearly shown
their superiority to all other aggrega-
tions in their particular section, with
the exception of the teams which also
represent their particular districts.

Coach Fisher announced yesterday!
that the Varsity baseball squad wouldr
use the cramped quarters of the cage ;
in Waterman gymnasium for the last
time then and today would begin its
workouts on'the regular playing dia-7
mon on Ferry field.
While Fisher is rather dubious about
taking the men outdoors with the
weather as it is at present he is of
the opinion that remaining indoors,
any longer would prove an even
greater handicap to Wolverine pros-
pects of a winning team this year. The
squad hopes for a change of climate.
for the warmer within the next day orI
two and all the men are just as anxious
as the coach to start practicing on
Ferry field-.
More equipment was issued yester-
day morning to members of the squad
so that all is in readiness'- for the
opening, of outdoor practice this af-
ternoon. If the weather is too cool
Fisher will probably work his battery
men under the concrete stands of the
football stadium in order to take nol
chances of illness or colds.
