Special to The Daily
Urbana, Feb. 27.-One of the most
successful meets in the history of the
Illinois relays is expected to take
place here Saturday afternoon and
night when athletes from practically
every section of the country will meet
together.
Preparations for the meet have been
made for the past two months and
Coach Harry Gill expects more than
250 athletes to take part.
Records- May. Fall
Practically every event on the pro-
gram should be hotly contested from
the number of athletes entered and
several meet, intercollegiate, and na-
tional records shoudli fall by the way-
side, if no upsets occur.. In prac-
tically every event there are men en-
tered who have equalled or approach-
ed records and in the relays the best
coimbinations in the country are en-
tered. Illinois, Northwestern and
Michigan are expected to figure prom-
po-nently in the latter events.
In a meet at Patten Gymnasium)
lately, "Northwestern showed a one
mile team that will be hard to beat,
doing the distance in 3:32 9-10. The
Indian four mile team composed of
Hall, Mieher, Linde, and Marzulo re-
cently went through its pace in 18:18
3-5, averaging slightly betteir than
4:35, and should make strong com-
petition for any other quartet in the
event.
The special events, including all
events in which individuals are to be
entered will be run off in the after-
noon while the relay race Wil be sv-
ed until_ evening. Several interest-

JAPANESE MAKE CLAIM
OF ORIGIN OF BASEBALL
Tsingtao, China, Feb. 21.-(By A
P.)-The Japanese have made won-
dlerful progress in baseball, so much
so that- some of them are challenging
the American claim to originating the
'game. A controversy has arisen here
by the contention advanced by certain
Japanese that baseball originated in
their empire.

Sarasota, Fla., Feb. 27.-Judging
from things that have happened on the
diamond here while Hughey Jennings'
has been whipping the advance squadl
of Giants through their daily practice.
there will be at least one pleasant j
surprise for John Joseph McGraw1
when he gets here from Havana the
latter part of the week to take com-
mand of affairs.
McGraw will find a young short-
stop on the scene that may give him
a few pleasant thrills. The youngster
is Fred Lindstrom, the Chicago high
school youth who performed in the'
infield for Roger Bresnahan at Toledo
last year most of the season and who
was bought by McGraw on the recom-
mendation of Roger.t
Lindstrom will not be 19 years of

Joseph Genewich
By Norman E. Brown
The summer of 1922 found Josephf
Genewich hurling ball on the Elmira.
X. Y., sandlots for the munificient sum
of five smackers a game.
A Boston Brave scout, dropping into
Elmira, looked the lad over and de-
cided he was a comer. This despite
the fact that the Giant ivory hunters
had decided otherwise.
That fall Genewich got a chance to
show his stuff. Manager Mitchell shov-
ed him into six games, most of which
seemed hopeless. Genewich worked
,23 innings and acquitted himself well
although the only games for which he
got credit were chalked up as defeats-
Last season Genewich, with a sev-
enth place club behind him, won 13
and lost 14 games. In 227 innings he
was hit freely but showed great con-
trol, only 46 bases on balls being
chalked againstvirn.
Numbered among his achievements
for last year was a neat victory over
the then world's champion Giants.
This year Genewich, with a year of
big league pitching. experience be-
hind him, should ring up a much more,
imposing record. At least Dave'Ban;
croft,.new Brave. pilot, believes he
will.
Bancroft probably will look to Gene-
wich, Marquard,- Cooney,. Jess Barnes,
McNamara and' Hullihan' to do the
twirling. Cooney, however, will have
to show more stuff than he did last
season to grab off a regular turn.
Tim McNamara faired badly last sea-
I son, winning but 3 games while drop-
ping 13, but the record book doesn't
do him justice. As for Rube Marquard,
that tall veteran, now waiting at St.
Petersburg for the Braves' camp to
open, he says he has another good
year in his system. Rube knocked off
11 victories and got nicked 14 times.

ball diamond this spring.
Batting practice continues to hold
the largest place on the dally program
at the Yost field house, but Fisher is
looking over a few of his pitchers
who may prove to "have something".
The hurlers are cutting loose and
showing their wares under the eagle
eye of the Varsity mentor,whose hop-
es for another Conference title for
Michigan may rise or fall, depending
on the mound corps.
There are few men out who give
promise of developing into heavy hit-
ters, and with only two pitchers on
hand who had experience with last
year's Wolverine nine, it is urgent
that some raw material be developed.
One good prospect has been lost to
Fisher, Thorne having been declared
ineligible. Thorne is a Detroit pro-
duct and a numeral man on last year's
freshman team. He appeared to have
the makings of a good pitcher.
The squad is rapidly rounding into
shape with the peppery work that is
to the schedule each afternoon. The
candidates are snapping out of the
stiffness brought on by the winter's
inactivity and are getting into their
stride. The pitchers are beginning to
put more on the ball without tiring,
but Fisher has no intentions of letting
any sore arms get a start, and is
holding the flingers in check with the
exception of a few men with whom he
is working personally.
The last. division of the final round
of the fraternity bowlinig tournament
will roll tonight at the Union alleys
and include the following teams: Psi
Omega, Alpha Tau Omega, Delta Tau
Upsilon, and Delta Chi.
The following men will receive num-
orals for playing on the champion-
ship hockey team: Blinco, McDuff,
Earhart, Comnb, Cook, Peterman, War-
ham, Kaller, Vose, Heath, Neff.

arrell Guides Fair A thlete
In Quest Of Greater Laurels

During Steve Farrell's career as
ad track coach at Michigan one de-
rtment of the team which has al-
ays remained uniformly strong has
en that made up of the jumpers.
Successful leapers of all varieties,
ve donned the Maize and Blue in
ars past, broad jumpers, high jump-
s and pole vaulters have all been!
eady point takers. On a few oc-
ions Michigan ne have been so-
lied world beaters and many records
the jumps have been established
'ahem.
Carl Johnson, Walter Wesbrook,
'uickshank, McEllven, and Hubbard
e only a few of the men who have
ospered under the tutelage of the
teran Michigan coach. As a' result
eve has achieved quite a reputation
a tutor in this department of sport.j
i occasion he has even partaken of
e game himself and he is reputed

to be one of the world's best in the
standing broad jump backwards. No
member of Michigan's track teams hasj
ever been able to beat him in his fav-
orite leap.
Now Steve has another protege who
promises to become ac famous as any
of the others. But this pupil is dif-
ferent. Her name is Helen McKee and
she is a student at Ypsilanti Normal
college. She has been prominent in
womens athletics for some time and
only last summer won the national
title in the A. A. U. games at Newark
with a leap of 16 feet 6 inches. '
Now she is looking forward to the
Olympic game tryouts this spring and
although she has leaped 17 feet 4
inches since the time of her victory
last year she is anxious.to better her
performance before the tryouts.
Wherefore she has sought the aid of
Steve.
