Students Decide To Abandon All
Co petition In M. I. A., A.
During 'Coming Spring'
(By Associated Press)
ALMA, March 13.-Lack of fi-
nancial support was given as the
reason for a decision by the stu-
dent body of Alma college, to
withdraw from all athletic compe-
tition in the' M. I. A. A. this spring.
The 'decision was reached yesterday
when students voted to abolish all
forms 'of intercollegiate sport.
Football and basketball have pro-
duced small profits, but track, ten-
nis and baseball consumea more
money than was taken ii.

KEEN ENTERS THREE MEN
With the matches which will de-
cide the Conference individual
wrestling champions scheduled for
this week-end, speculation is rife
in Big Ten mat circles as to who
will take the titles this year. Mich-
igan is entering only three men in
this tournament, Warren, Dugo-
vito, and George, the remainder of
the squad pointing for the Nation-
ai tournament which will be run
off at Columbus on March 29 and
30.
Sapora of Illinois appears to be
the class of the Big Ten 115 pound-
ers, but La Favour of Ohio State
and Cushing of Northwestern may
give him a battle for the title. La
Favour won from Cushing during
the season, but when the two men
mix there is sure to' be a battle,
