Captain Watson, Thomas, Sauer, Hewitt, Hager, Prescott, Warren, and Donahoe will compose the Michigan squad which, led by Coach Keen, will leave for Columbus at 9 o'clock to- night. Kailes, who defeated Sojkow- ski of Michigan State in the 125pound class after losing to Cox of West Virginia, wrenched his knee Thurs- day and will be unable to make the trip. The Ohio 'squad, with easy victories over Michigan State and Indiana to their credit, are rated as one of the strongest teams in the Conference. The Buckeyes defeated the Michigan State wrestlers, 22-3, while the Wol- verines won from the Spartans 22-5. In both matches Michigan State lost all but the 135-pound bout. The Ohio team showed their real strength by beating Indiana, con- sidered one of the leaders in the eastern division of the Big Ten, 151-2 to 71-2. Coach Keen and Assistant Coach Solomon, who scouted the Ohio-Michi- gan State meet, ftted the Buckeye wrestlers as much stronger than last year, pointing out that Coach Mooney has a star in each 'of the seven weight divisions. 'Coach Mooney of Ohio has stated that he considers his team to be even stronger than the 1924 Buckeye ag- gregation which included two mem- hers of the United States Olympic team, Captain Martin and Steel. In the 115-pound bout, Newitt of Michigan who has been victorious in three non-Conference matches, will meet Cushman. Thomas, lately de- clared eligible, who won his bout in the meet with Ohio university, will oppose Heller of the Buckeyes in the 125 pound class. Captain Watson of Michigan, Big Ten title holder in 1927, will take the place of Dulude in the 135-pound class against Scheidt of Ohio. Saerf-T9'25 145-pound Conference champion, will meet Captain Hummel of the Buck- eyes in what promises to be the fea- ture bout of the evening. Hummel wa's kept out of competition last year by injuries, but is rated one of the best in the Big Ten 145-pound class by reason of his easy victories over his Michigan State and Indiana op- ponents. In the 158-pound division, Donahoe, Michigan's third 1927 Conference champion, will oppose Power of the Buckeyes. Hager will meet Ackley of the.Buckeyes in the 175-pound bout'. and Prescott of the Wolverines will have the heavyweight assignment against Helgerson. In case another lineup is used, Warren will wrestle in the 158-pound class,Donahoe will be shifted to the 175-pound division, and Hager will face the Buckeye's heavyweight. The Wolverines prepared for to- day's match with limbering up exer- cises and a light workout at the field house. VARSITY BASEBALL All men wishing to be candi- dates for the Varsity baseball Iteam and who were not mi- bers of last year's squad are asked to report at 3:30 o'clock I this afternoon at Yost field ( house. Bring your own equip- them. Ilay L. Fisher, Coach. 1 I Badly crippled, due to the loss of its star, Lawrence Pettibone, who was declared ineligible to participate in Varsity sports, the Wolverine fencing squad will oppose Illinois at 3 o'clock this afternoon in Yost field, Chief Interest Attracted In Field House; All Possibilities Abo RAfrl(U PI AV . rn, , . t Byd Sorts Tsse versity of Wisconsin athletic atithor- Of ities late Thursday afternoon while the Michigan hockey squad was at the lERS Michigan Central station waiting to catch a train for Chicago, that the ice on Lake Mendota at Madison was Over Crimson -Natators Tonigh"' At Bloomington TWELVE MEN MAKE TRIP D Capt. Alfred Watson FIFTH ANNUAL TRACK MEET TO BE HELD AT CHICAGO FEBRUARY 18 EVANSTON, Feb. 10.-Four track teams-Chicago,F Oio,.Northwestern and Wisconsin-will compete here Saturday, Feb. 18, in the Fifth Annual Quadrangular Track and Field meet. Wisconsin, winner of " the first three meets and Ohio, last year's victors, are expected to be hard pushed by Northwestern and Chicago in the forthcoming contest. All four teams will enter a number of star performers who will go far towards splitting up the points. Capt. Dick Williams of Chicago, Conference indoor half mile champion, will lead the Maroon team in its quest for points. Chicago Expects Shot Put Chicago is also expected to pick up a number of points in the shot put with such performers as Buck Weaver and Vin Libby, both capable of toss- ing the iron ball around 43 feet. Northwestern's loss of Lewis and Karstens who heaved the weight around 46 feet will materially weaken the Purple in this event. Some lively competition should re- sult in the 40-yard dash when Her- mansen and Wilkens of Northwestern, Courtney Gleason of Chicago, Tooley of Ohio and Smith of Wisconsin match strides. This quintet of sprinters should negotiate the short distance in near record time. Smith is captain of the Badger squad and is one of the best sprinters in the middle west this year. Relays Draw Stars Instead of running the quarter and half mile races the coaches has sub- stituted the mile and two mile re- lays. -These events should provide some interesting competition with a number of outstanding performers running for each school. Paul Tooley, Ohio State captain; Paul Gorby and Sam Bloomberg of Northwestern; Dick Williams of Chicago and John Kanalz, Gil Smith and Harwood Stowe of Wisconsin will carry the brunt of the relay races for their re- spective alma maters. Each school will make a strong bid for points in the hurdles, Wisconsin with Ralph Pahlmeyer; Ohio with Richard Rockaway and Francis Pierce and Chicago with Laurel Smith and Harold Haydon will make the strong- est bid for places in the hurdles. Bill Droegemueller of Northwestern appears to have the edge in the pole vault. However, Wisconsin has some newcomers in this event who may surprise the fans. - - -- - - - - - - - - -~ I K 41 A house.

As soon as this was knoxwn, Coach Eddie Lowrey took his Varsity players and equipment back to the local placeI of practice and sent the team through a stiff drill.I In view of the cancellation of the Wisconsin games the next ones on the schedule for the Wolverines will be two game's at Minneapolis. The same set of players that were ready to -take the trip to Wisconsin will leave tomorrow morning for Min- neapolis. Captain Maney and Copeland, at the wings, Fisher at center, Bryant and Hart at defense, and Jones at goal will form the starting lineup. The spares accompanying those expected to an- swer the opening whistle are Nygord, Joseph, Marshall, Waldron, and Abbott. The large squad, Coach Lowrey ex- plained, is to be taken because there is the possibility that the Badger sex- tet may be encountered on the returnt trip from Minneapolis, provided Laket Mendota refreezes before then. The Wolverines, joint holders of the championship honors with Minnesota last year, will leave on the trip to the North, with an outside chance of again sharing the championship this season.. Now in the cellar as a result of two close defeats at the hands of the Gophers, administered several weeks= ago at Detroit, the much improved Michigan team now that pit has had several practice workouts, can step in- to the top rung through a pair' of wins.

Coach Matt Mann has taken 12 men to Blooming- ton to compete against the Hoosiers. The Crin!son swimmers have not shown any great strength so far this year. Although they defeated Wabash 52-17, and DePauw 53-16, these over- whelming scores have little signifi- cance. In her first Big Ten meet In- diana lost to Chicago, one of the weaker teams in the Conference this year, by a 36-33 score. Michigan's record breaking relay team of Walker, Walaitis, Reif, and Watson will meet a Hoosier quartet consisting of Vetter, Matthew, Bol- yard and Winston in the 235 yard relay. In tho 50 yard, free style, Capt. Darnall and Reif of the Wolverines will oppose Matthew and Vetter of Indiana. Thoinjpson It Breast Stroke Wagner, veteran from the 1927 team, and Thompson, a sophomore, will be the Michigan entrants in the 200 y rd breast stroke. Indiana will be represented by Miller, veteran of last year, and Lauter Ault, sopho- more distance star, and Watson will compete against Bolyard and Wins- ton of the Crimson in the 440 yard free style. The 150 yard back stroke will find Splindle, Conference champion, and lubbell racing against Vodermark and Miller of Indiana. The 100 yard free style will bring together Dar- nall and' Walker of thh Wolverines against Bolyard and Matthew of the Hoosiers. Walaitis and Bailey will be the Michigan contestants in the )'ancy diving. Hugus and Hunt are due to dive for the Crimson team. The Wol- verine trio of Hubbell, Thompson, and Reif will meet Indiana's team of Vodermark, Miller, and Winston in the medley relay. Won Last Year Last year Michigan overwhelmed the Indiana swimmers in the Union pool, 60-9, winning every first and second place and capturing both re- lays.

However, even a Gopher victory would not raise Coach Dave McMillan's squad out of the cellar, Ohio not being list- ed for a contest tonight. Iowa, the otherntrampled five matched against one of the favorites, does have a chance to become more dangerous, a win enabling Coach Sam Barry's squad to claim a .500 rating.
