Illinois is not reckoned to challenge the leaders. Michigan's advance rating is based on a general survey of the best per- formances made in the course of. the dual meet season just terminated. linch Best Back Stroker Of the seven speed events included on the progran, of the dual encoun- trs, Michigan representatives have established the outstanding marks in six, in both the 300 yard medley and 200 yard free style relay ,' in the_ 40, 100, and 400 yard free style, and in the 200 yard breast stroke. Hinch, Northwestern back stroker, is credit- ed with the other best time, 1:41, al new national intercollegiate record' for tth regulation 150 yards. Excluding only Wag er's time of, 2:40.5 in the breast stroke, the marks all excel the existing Confer- ence short pool standards, now three or more years old. Wagner's time,t too, is the fastest recorded by a Big Ten breast stroker since 1922, when 'aricy of Minnesota was clocked in4 2:38.8, a nark hitherto consideredi unassailable. Walker Fast In Sprints In the back stroke, the only speed event in which the Wolverines have not registered the fastest time of the season, Coach Matt Mann's entries. nclude, however, such stars as Spindle, defending 'hampion, and Hubbell, third place winner lastc year. With the exception of the :18.6 im'e in the 40 yard event established by Walker of Michigan, all the otherc seasonal marks were made in thet Northwestern-Michigan dual ' meet ast week. Darnall's :53.5, for 100 yards, made ii the long pool, is notE here considered, and in its place Schwartz' :54.1 is included instead.

In the' first place the Moakley-coached team is anxious to maintain its enviable record foi the season, and secondly to Wipe out the reverse suffered at the hands of the Michigan aggregation last sonason in Y t fiald hl- n ost IIYSnel~ 1OUSe. A much stronger team than the one which invaded the Wolverine strong- hold last season will face the Western invaders Saturday night, while the Wolverines are reported to be con- siderably weaker than last season, in spite of the fact that they held Har- vard to a 481-2 to 461-2 score last Week. Crinson Have Good Record This year's record thus far, is one of the best ever made by a Cornell team, in spite of the fact that Harvard an- nexed the triangular meet which also included Dartmouth by a five point margin. Cornell annexed the 1928 Eastern intercollegiate title, which has been held by Harvard for the past two years, and scored a dual meet victory over the highly rated Yale aggregation. It is probable that Cornell will be without the services of Capt. Spelman, who was injured in the Yale meet, two weeks ago. The Crimson leader placed second in the 300 yard rung men and probably Rhodes will com- prise the relay team. The mile quar- tet lost to Harvard's relay team in the last and deciding event of the triang- ular meet. In spite of the loss of Capt. Spel- man, who placed second in the low hurdles in the outdoor Intercollegiates last year, the Crimson hurdlers are expected to press Cooper, Michigan's ace. Caruthers is Coach Moakley's best bet in both events, while Heasley in the highs and Young in the lows are the next best. Strong In Field Events Anderson, Levy, and Wickham, Cornell weightmen, are conceded the edge over the Wolverine entries. The first twjo are credited with marks over 46 feet this season, and finished one-two in the triangular meet. Cornell has a trio of good pole vaulters in Pitman, Williams, and Berry who are all capable of going over 12 feet 6 inches. Williams es- tablished a new record for Drill hall, Saturday when he vaulted 12 feet 7 3-8 inches. Coach Moakley expects to use Wilkes, Wickham, and Keete in the high jump. Benson Is Best Miler The veteran Benson, who tied with Hornberger of Michigan last year for the Yost field house twomile record, Ctoach Farrell Thkes 22 Athletes To Cornell For Annual Encounter With. lig ed llSquad TARBILL HAS LEG INJURY Determined to make up for the two point defeat sustained at ilm handsl of the Harvard team last Saturday, Michigan's track squad, consisting of 22 athletes, Coach Steve Farrell,. Manager Poole and Trainer Mac- Donald,will leave at 3.28 o'clock this afternoon for Itaca, where it will meet the formidible Cornell team to-1 morrow night in Drill hall.

The freshman squad is one of the best ever produced at Indiana and, according to Coach Thom, the yearlings will make strong bids for regular places on the team next year. About one hundred and fifty freshmen turned out for haseball at P irdue Weduesday. However, practice will not be held for a - week or two due to the o: edition of the playig field, -which is very miud dy. Northwestern gridders will top off a week of strenuous work this week with their first spring practice game. This game will be played at Dyche stadium, and, as the squad has had hard drill on fundamentals, a good contest is expected. Iowa baseball candidates held their first regular practice 'out- doors this week. After a few warming-ue exercises, the aspir- ants held a six-inning game of real baseball between fthe regulars anid the yaunigans in which the first teain men were victorious, 3.1. John Beardsley, star left fielder of the Iowa ball team, has been signed up by the St. Louis Cards, and will re- port to that club as soon as he has finished school this spring. He is keeping in condition by helping the freshman baseball coach, Rollie Wil- liams. 11-- ~x-011 41,~ A A TT r,, the Junior Lits in the interclass basketball finals. Weiss, Babcock and Farlman starred for the win- ners while Tenenbom and Boden were the best for the losers. The play of th Senior Lits proved to be the feature of the intramural cage season, and only on two occasions were they pressed to win. In the Hillel basketball. league finals Iowa defeated Minnesota 8-5, in a slow game. Tenenbom and Marx for Iowa and Engleman :for Minnesota played well.

Althoiigh four of last year's title holders are entered in the meet, tom- petition is expected to be exceedingly keen in all classes. Ralph Lupton, Northwestern's National Intercolleg- iate 115-pound champion, will compete in the 125 pound class, leaving Sapora. of Illinois, Hewitt of Michigan, and Schoolfifield of Indiana to fight it out for the lighter title. Allie Morrison, Illini National A. A. U. champion, is favored to annex the 135-pound title from the 1927 winner, Captain Watson of Michigan. Sauer of Michigan will also seek to defend his title, against such able 145-pounders as Captain Hummel of Ohio and Bod die of Northwestern. Donahoe, Michigan's third 1927 Big Ten champion, will have two former champions as opponents in the 158, pound class.
