With the championship of the West
retain, Michigan's Varsity track
uad will enter the preliminaries of,
e 14th annual indoor track and field
;mes today at Evanston, Ill. The
als will be run off tomorrow.
To defend her title, won in both
e indoor and outdoor meets last sea-
n, the Wolverines must defeat some
the fiost powerful track and field
mbin tlons in the world today, in-
tidingthe Illinois and Jovy ' teams,
iich 4 e favored to finish among the
st th e. In order to amass a large
.ough jotal of points to wi the cmeet
e, Wolverines must win places
inst he most brilliant performes
the country.
Illinois is Favorite
From the results of the Illinois re-
Ys two weeks ago, in which most
the Western Conference teams com-
ted, Illinois will rule a slight fav-
ite with Michigan which is regarded
being nearly the equal of Gill's
gregation. Iowa, which has the
ongest indoor team in its history,
ay come out on. ton although its
owing against the Illini did not
dount to as much as it would have
der b tter conditions. The Iowa gym
note as a "freak" ald the Illini
re g atly handicapped while the
awke s were quite a OIL 3.
The 5 yard dash will see Wittman,
Mich an, and his titteIfi
us, pi ed against Ayres, o1IIftinois,
tle, © Illinois, Brookins, of Iowa,
cAndr ws, of Wisconsin, and several
hier n table performers. Wittman
s tak a number of important races
the st year, among them the 100
the utdoor Conference meet last
ar an the 75 yard dash in the Illin-
s rela s this year and av rt
leave he rest behind in a orrow s
ces.

inois, broke the world's record in

are Brookins and Coulter, of the

so run, this race as he was fourth
ace w iner last year, but Gill is
:ely to save at least his two quart-
lers for the relay. Michigan will
obably enter Purdy in'the quarter
its only representative but Fein-
iger may also run. Both of these
n do the distance in about :51.
Michigan Strong in Half
Michigan will probably gather more
ints in the half mile than in any
her event. There will be three Wol-
rines in the 880 who can do it in
tter than 2:00 and between Reinke,
pt. Hattendorff and Freyberg two
the best places at least should come
e way of Coach Farrell's squad.

make the 880 in 2:01 for Illinois,

Wisconsin will probably manage to.
take a third. The Iowa team compos-
ed of Morrow, Roberts, Coulter, and'
Brookins, ran the distance in 3:27 in
the Illinois relays and Illinois was sec-
ond. Previous to the time of that race
however Illinois, composed of Smuts,
Hughes, Carter, and Fessenden had
made it in 3:28 and it is likely that1
they will do better in tomorrow's race.
Michigan will be represented by Purdy,
Feinsinger, Loomis, and Roesser who
have a fair chance to taking a fourth.E
They have done the distance in 3:30.
The shot put will be likely to go to
either Bauber, of Iowa, or Schildauer,
of Illinois, both of whom do better
than 43 feet. Doyle, of Michigan, will
give both of- these men a good run
for their 'money, in spite of the fact
that he will have only two days of
practice behind hiinr when he; leaves
for Evanston today.
The pole vault will go to either

EXMIG LEAUTE PLAYEI
GOES INTO NOVEL FIELD
Many ball players have enter-
ed interesting fields upon their
retirement from the game but it
is believed that Lynn Brenton'
is the first former big leaguer
jto take up duties of a Christian
Science Reader. Brenton, who
went up to the big show from
the American association several
years ago, is now devoting all
his time to the Christian Science
work, according to some of the
players who saw him in Los
Angeles the last few months.
Brenton, when he first broke
in, along with Billy Southworth,
now with the Giants, was a clean
cut, smiling chap, with a whole-
some, optinistic view of life in
in general.

Brooker in the Illinois relays with a

INDIAN FRESHMAN HAVE WON
MEET FROM IOWA YEARLINGS
Coach Hoyt's freshman track squad
will celebrate the absence of the °Var-
sity performers Saturday afternoon
by stacking up against the yearling
team of Illinois in a telegraphic meet.a
This is the first meet of its kind inr
which the freshman aggregation has
competed this year, and judging from
comparative records of the two squads
should be a close event.
The Illini frosh defeated the Iowa
first year men recently in a telegraph-
ic meet by a score of 54-45. Some ex-
ceedingly good marks were set by the
winners, and Hoyt's proteges will have
their hands full Saturday.
The Michigan athletes should win
the 50-yard dash with such men as
Hester, Sterling,- Leschinsky, and
Koplin entered. HNester is favoredato
cop the event. Sittig, an Illinois
frosh, ran the 440 in 52 4-5 seconds
against the Iowa team, and Harrison
will have a task cut out for him if
Michigan's yearlings are to place in
the event, as Brooks and Courter of
the Indian team took the other two
places in the Hawkeye meet. In
Warren, the Illini have a man who is
capable of doing the 880 in 2.01 or
thereabouts. Jung, Hart, and Walsh
are Michigan's best bets in this event.
Briggs should win the two mile race,
as he has done the distance in 10:10.
Both the Illinois and Michigan teams
have men who can high jump six feet,
and the meet should bring out a good
imarl& in this event. Hornberger
stands an excellent chance of whinn-
ing he mile for Michigan. He has
done 4:35, while McElwee of Illinois
won the race in the Iowa encounter in
4:38 4-5. Lasser, Hoyts star in the
hurdles ;should cop the 50 yard low
hurdles as he has done the distance
in 6 1-5. The pole vault will be close-

FRIBERS MAKES FAST''
J UMP INTO BIG TENT,
If there ever was a real simon
pure semi-pro who came straight from
the sand lots to the major league with-
out space or parley between, Barney
Friberg, star third baseman, of the
Chicago Cubs is that guy.
Friberg played center field for the
semi-pro team of Lynn, Mass., for five'
years, all the way from his high school
days to the edge of his big league
manhood. Fred Mitchell, then man-I
ager of the Chicago ;Cubs, lifted Fri-
berg right out of Lynn and into Chi-
cago in 1920. He was a center field-
er. Needing an outer gardener bad-
ly, Mitchell used. this semi-pro boy
the rest of the season. He did not set
the otfield grass on fire, nor did he
harass or discourage National league
pitchers to any notable extent.
The Cubs sent Friberg to Kansas
City in 1921 to play under Otto Kpabe.
"I figured I ,was a -failure," said Fri-
berg, "when -they sent me to the nin-
ers, and I was discouraged azi4 down-
hearted to a point where I: was just
about a total loss. But it turned out to
be just.the thing. for me. Knabe cheer-
