haps the greatest first baseman ever
to grace baseball, he is now mixed'
up in talks of waivers and uncondi-
tional releases-what the outcome will
finally be, time can tell.
The latest information seems, to. be
k, that waivers being refused for. is-
ler does not mean that the Washing-
ton Senators intend to sever their re-
lations with the former Wolverine
hurling ,star and batsman, but that he
will remain on the roster.
Sisler was sold last winter by the
St. Louis Browns in their effort to
change entirely their battlefront and
it was expected quite naturally that
he, would replace thc veteran Joe
Judge at first for Bucky Harris' club.
But Judge continued, much to the
surprise of many fans who are trying,
to figure out how it is that a .275
hitter holds preference over one.rated
at .330 or better and ranked as one
of the be'st fielders of his position.
What will develop as aanxesult of
this latest embryo shakeup few know
and less are willing to conjecture. It
may mean nothing; it may mean that
Sisler will get another chance as a-
regular either in the field or at first as
his many supporters wish.

or from the Indians, .,winning by
scores of 10-5 and 8-5.
However the victory of the base-
ball nine was offset by a decisive de-
feat of the Wolverine tennis team at
the hands of Illinois by a 7-2 count.-
Then on Monday the golf team even-
ed up matters by subduing their Il-
lini opponents, 13-5, over the Barton
Hills course.
The Michigan and Illinois basket-
ball teams did not meet this season.
But the Wolverines iray be given the
edge, as they finished fifth in the Big
Ten standings, while the Illini were
in ninth place. In the race for dual
meet swimming honors, Michigan and
Illinois tied for first,' although they
did not oppose each other in a dual
meet. The Wolverine natators show-,
ed their superiority in winning the
Conference meet by a wide. bargin,
Illinois tying with Iowa for fifth
place.
Last year Michigan held the edge
over Illinois in their sports rivalry.
The Maize and Blue teams scored
victories in football, basketball, golf,!
and dual track. The Indians' only win
was scored in wrestling. On the base=.
ball diamond the team-s broke even
in two games.
