This year's entry includes the names of more than 275 athletes. Iowa tops the list for the number of team entries with 38, Wisconsin trails the Hawkeyes by one, while Harry Gill has -named 34 Illini trackmen to compete. Conference track critics are almost unanimous ih their selection of Illi- nois to succeed Wisconsin, winner of the 1927 meet. The Indians have al- ready captured the indoor meet seven time, and lead the Conference in this respect. Michigan has been declared winner on four occasions. Iowa and Ohio State may press the Illini for first honors. There is ap- parently little to choose between the other teams, all of which boast one or more individual stars but lack the team strength of the Illinois and Iowa, squads. Due to the fact that this year's meet is to be held on a longer track, much of the confusion and uncer- tainty caused by the cramped quarters of Patten gymnasium' will be elimin- ated. This fact may result in the es- tablishnient of new marks in the 440, 880, mile and two runs, and the re- lay. There is also a possibility that the existink marks in the shot put, pole vault, and high jump may be bettered. A field of 45 men in the dashes makes it necessary to hold four trial heats which will constitute one part of tonight's preliminaries. The semi- finals will be run tomorrow night.

COACH LAMBERT CARDS SCHEDULE OF 20 TILTS Twenty opponents, twelve of which are Conference members, will fur- nish the opposition this spring for Varsity candidates for next year. Breast strokers are plentiful among the yearlings, but there is a dearth of good free stylers, and only one back stroker is available. Auer and Russell are the outstand- ing free style swimmers among the freshmen. Auer has shown speed in the 50 yard sprint, while Russell is a good prospect in the 100 yard free style. Shikes is also a- free style candidate.

MICHIGAN HAS EDGE IN 175 POUND BOUT; ILLINOIS HEAVYWEIGHT HOLDS ADVANTAGE CONFERENCE LEADERS TO COMPETE IN EACH INDOOR TRACK EVENT (Speci dlto The Daily.) IOWA CITY, March 8.-Every event of the Western Conference indoor track championships will be enhanced by the presence of a team captainI among the competitors, according to a compilation made here at the Univer- sity of Iowa, scene of the meet. So diversified are the talents of the ten captains, that only in the half mile and mile relay will two leaders clash. Here Dick Williams, Chicago's conference indoor titlist, will race against Paul Tooley, the Ohio State man who was second in the outdoor 880 yard run lastfspring. George Hester, from Michigan, will be the captains' representative in the 60-yard dash. He is the rniner who captured the 50-yard championship two years ago, shared the 100-yard title in 1926, and won it outright lastE June. In the hurdles the leader is Frank (Bab) Cuhel, the great Iowan who has twice won the Big Ten outdoor low hurdles championship. Illinois' team is led by Dave Fairfield, a two miler who is one of the favoritesto win, while John Petaja, miler, will direct the forces of Wisconsin in defense of the 1927 team title. The quarter mile captain is William Stephenson, Indiana, who won second place in the outdoor event of 1927. William Droegemuller of Northwest- ern is a pole vaulter, holder of the Big Ten outdoor record, and national collegiate champion. Arthur Laemmle heads the Minne- sota squad as the star Gopher shot putter, and C. R. Nelson, high jump- er,. is captain of Purdue's team. Two captains will meet in the mile relay when Cuhet of Iowa, and Step- henson of Indiana, both anchor men, take the baton. Cuhel's 1927 team was conference indoor champion; Stephenson's quartet raced off with first place in the outdoor meet. E7 -rn . -rC.i(" a The one serious weakness of Coach Paul Prehn's Illinois wrestling teamn appears to lie in the light heavy- weight division, where the Illini wrestlers have had but mediocre suc- cess to date. Just who will be Bob War- ren's opponent in the 175 pound bout is as yet undecided, but either Crane or M"egge will take the Illinois assignment. At egge's record is slightly bet- ter than that of Crane, but the former has wrestled in only two bouts, one of which he defaulted due to injuries which have kept hiim out oi the rest of the meets. He has the advantage of two years of experience over his sophomore competitor, who is better known as Grantland Rice's choice for all-Amer- ican guard this fall. Since Muegge gained a fall in his first bout, it is probable that he will wrestle for the Illini if in shape. , Either of these men will hold one advantage over Warren, that of weight. Warren started out the year by annexing the all- campus championship in the 145 pound class, and has since grad- nated to the light heavyweight division.
