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, SLNTOFFR S EXCITING BOUTS MOWER ONLY MAN TO CAPTURE FALL OUT:OF FIVE MATCHES Evenly matched. grapplers and a bit of fast .and clever mat work char- acterized the first round of the All- campus wrestling tournament which ws hteld Friday afternopn in Water- man gymnasiui.I Only one of the entrants was able to secure a fall over his opponent this being a bout in the 145 pound class in which Mower pinned Katz's shoulders to the mat after three min- utes of fast and interesting grappl- ing. The other bouts of the afternoon were only partly interesting to the Fair sized crowd of spectators because 1ll of them went to decisions. The first two of the decisions were given in the 125 pound class, Doty securingI the verdict' over Leet after an exhi- bition of lightning like tumbling. The second match was given to Howard as his opponent Carmiener failed te put in an appeargnce at the scheduled time.

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. Sectional winners of class B and. C in the state interscholastic basketball tournament will convehe at Ann Arbor on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday for the gaies which will decide the ulti- mate winners in each of the two class- es.
