FARRELL ANNOUNCES TEAM

ready tucked away, Michigan's mat
team will attemi>t to take the undis-
puted lead in the castern division of
the Conference whien they meet the,
Purdue wirestlers Saturday afternoon
in Yost field house.
Purdue now stands as the only
other team in the eastern division i
of the Big Ten which can boast a
.1000 nercentage, the Boilermakers
have scored wins over Northwestern
and Indiana. Michigan's two Confer-
ence victories have been over Ohio1
State and Northwestern, while Ohio
university, West Virginia, and Mich-
igan State have also fallen before
the Wolverine wrestlers.
Purdue Shows Improveiiment I
Altllough Ithe Purdue grapplers
lost an early season meet to the
strong Cornell university team, they
have shown steady improvement in
-their last three matches, taking live
out of seven bout, lirom Ohio uni-
ve7sit'y, Idecisively defeating North-
western, and winning over the In-
diana wrestlers by a 16 to 11 score.
The Boilermakers' greatest strength
seems to lie in the heavier weights,
since their 175 pound and heavy-
weight granplers have been defeated
but, once, by Bogola of Ohio univer-
sity, who w'restled in both events.
The Wolverines held a slight ad-
vantage on paper, for this sane Bo-
gola, who gained all of Ohio univer-
sity's eight points against Purdue,
was decisively defeated by Donahoe,
1927 Conference champion, although',
the Wolverine was cut-weighed by 201
pounds.
On the basis o' comparative scores,'
Michigan again seems to have the
edge. TIhe Wolverines made a clean
sweep of the Ohio university match
to win 29-0, while Purdue emerged
victorious 21 to S. Besides handing
the Northwesitclrn grapplers a worse
beating than did Purdue, the Varsity
matm.en have defeated Ohio State de-
cisively, while the Buckeyes badly
beat the Indiana wrestlers, who later'
Rreed the Boilermakers to the limit.
pushing th ree bouts to overtime, and
then losing by the narrow margin of
one fall, 16-11.
Captain Jo hnsoIs N eavyweight
The Boilermakers' sitar, Captain
Johnson, will wrestle in the heavy-
weigh fclass and, although he was
defeated by Bogota, is expected to
give Prescott his hardest match of1
the year. Purdue also boasts highly
rated men in Sheffler and dooker,
who wrestler in the 135 and 175
pound classoa respectively, and whol
have victories by falls over Indiana,
to their (iredit. Sheffler has been
hamrpered by injuries so far this sea-
son, but has won all three of his
matches, and is expected to be in
tip to form by Saturday. Hooker
has also kept his slate clean of d-'
feats, and garnered th-ree of the Boil-
ermakors' six points against Cor-
nell college.
Robinson, the Purdue 145 pounder,
gained a time adlvantage victory over
his "ndiana opponent in his first ap-
pearance on the mat for the Boiler-
makers. The 115, 125, and 158 pound I
wrestlers have not yet been decided
upon, but it is probable that the as-
signments will fall to Winslow,
Twedle, and Walsmith respectively.

For the first time in several years
Michigan's entry in the annual Michi-
;an Indoor Relay carnival sponsored
by Michigan State college which is to
be held tom'r) row night in the Spar.-
an gymnasium at East Lansing will
x be limited to a single event, the;
special two-mile relay with the Green
andI White team.
Yesterday Coach Stephen J. Farrellj
announced that Leonard had been1
selected as the fourth' man on the1
Wolverine quartet, Goetz, Jesson, and
Grunow having been named earlier
in the week. Leonard ran as a mem-
ber of the two mile relay team that
competed in the I.A.C. meet in Chi-
cago several weeks ago, and is the
only experienced man of the group.
Farrell Changes Selection
Coach Farrell had originally con-I
sidered Hunt, another member of the
quartet that competed in the I.A.C.
meet, as the fourth man on the team;
but was forced to change his selec-
"tion when Hunt sprained his ankle.
The two mile relay between the
Michigan and State teams has been
one of the feature events on th pro-
-{ gram of the Indoor Relay carnival for
the mast six or seven years. Wolver-
ine teams hold the majority of vie-
rc ogtories, as last season's event was the
