Over Seven hundred Men From Blg Ten And Other Conferences h : Journey To Urbana Yl ImflPITII tAII|numrn| P Wrestlers Leave This Morning For RECORDS DUE TO FALL URBANA, Ill., Feb. 26.-Seven hun- dred athletes will gather from 60 un- iversities, colleges and high schools throughout 12 states for the ninth an- nual Illinois relay carnival this aft- ernoon and tonight at the Illini arm- ory. Almost every member of the B. Ten, Missouri Valley, Illinois intercolleg- late and "Little Nineteen" conferences will be represented. Already 65 relay teams have been entered to compete in the four relay events. Several Illinois relay carnival rec- ords are due to get a severe shock during the running off of the nineteen events judging from the entrants, men' of Olympic calibre are included with the best athletes in their individual events that the various conferences have to offer. Guthrie, Ohio State's star hurdler and Western Conference indoor and outdoor high hurdle champion, is en- tered, in the high and broad jumps; be- sides his specialty the hurdle races. He will have strong competition in Werner, the Illinois hurdler, who was second to Guthrie in the Conference race last June. There will be special interest in the appearance of two athletes .who have just made notable records, Kuck of the Kansas State Teachers, who now holds the world's record on the shot put with a throw of 49 feet 1-4 inch, the present carnival record is 47 feet 3 1-4 inches, and Harrington of Notre Dame who established a new world's intercollegiate record of 13 feet 1 5-8 inches in the pole vault at the Illinois- Notre Dame dual meet last week. Kuck will meet some good rivals in Dauber of Iowa and. Lyon of Illin- ois, Richerson of, Missouri is another good man with the slfot. Shimek ofI Marquette, conference two mile chain- pion, Phillips of Butler, quarter mile title holder, Cusack of Chicago, mile champion, McGinnis of Wisconsin, Conference indoor high jump cham- pion and Iocke of Nebraska, cham- pion dashman, will be present to help speed up the competition. The one mile relay, the last eventi on the program, is the high spot of the carnival. Several teams of rec-i ord breaking ability ar'e entered in theI event and Georgetown's mark of 3:g5.81 set last year, may go tumbling. Mich-I igan and Iowa are considered favor- ities in this event. The four mile relay should be an- other feature race. Michigan broke Illinois' string of four wins which extended from 1921 when the Wolver- ines beat the Illini last year. There is a special trophy for the four mile university relay, known as the Mike Mason trophy. This trophy is to be- come the permanent property of the university which first wins it three times. It is now in possession of the University of Michigan who is tied with Illinois for the right of perm- anent possession.

A fancy diving duel is expected to develop between La Pook and McCor- rison of Northwestern and Harrison and Starrett of Michigan in the springboard event. Michigan's chances lie in her well WIEMh& OMPAH balanced team, while the Wildcatsj M M4 must base their hopes upon one or two stars to win the meet for them. I Three Iowa Teams To Contest Today ______ I 4 GUARDS TO CLASH WHEN BUCKEYES MEET CHICGO9 IOWA CITY, Ia. Feb. 26.-A battle of guards, .a clash of two taut de- fenses andla stubborn attempt by the IIawkeyes to stretch their string to four straight victories will come to pass in the Iowa-Chicago basketball Igame at Iowa City Saturday. Hopes for a tie for the Western Con- I ference title, dimmed by three straight defeats are being burnished againt E among the Hawkeyes since the team has defeated Minnesota, Michigan and Northwestern in successive games. Now the Iowans are in a tie for sec- ond place with five of nine games on the victory side of the column. Chicago, even though standing a lowly eighth having lost six of ten} tilts, is no weak foe. The Maroons have one of those in-and-out teams, able to upset almost any five at times. But the Chicagoans, with the tena- cious Hoerger and McDonough at guards and a pair of forwards who have more defensive than scoring abil- ity have restricted their rivals to an Four Remain In Bowling Tourney Four teams now remain in the in- terfraternity bowling tournament by virtue of rolling high scores in the fourth round of the tourney, Thurs- day night at the Union. The remain- ing teams are Phi Sigma Kappa, Al- pha Chi Sigma, Beta Theta Pi, and Phi Sigma Delta. The Phi Sigma bowlers led the field in high scoring Thursday, garnering a grand total of 7510 pins in the three 1 games. Alpha .Chi-_ Sigma followed next in order with a count of 7143, while Beta Theta Pi and Phi Sigma Delta registered 7122 and 7121 pins respectively. The four winners will roll in an- other qualifying round on Monday, March 1. The two teams securing high scores in this round will bowl for the championship on Wednesday. average of slightly over twenty points per game.

Abtlr QInt4~e Definite arrangements have been made with both the Minnesota and Wisconsin authorities regarding the hockey games that are to be played between these schools and Michigan's Varsity sextet. The Badgers were scheduled for two contests, the first of which was to have been played last night, ad the second tonight, but Coach Barss received a wire from Wisconsin ath- letic officials, Thursday cancelling the# games, due to the poor condition of the ice. The Varsity team will leave at noon} tomorrow for Minneapolis, where they will meet the Minnesota team in a two game series, playing on Monday and Tuesday nights. The games at Minnesota are played on artificial ice, and are therefore not dependent upon, the weather conditions. From Minneapolis, the team will travel 'to Madison, where they will en- gage the Badger ice outfit, playmng one game on Thursday, and the other t on Friday. These games are still pending, as the condition of the ice at Madison, which is not an artificial rink, cannot be foretold in advance. ThA nuteonme of these fmourame
