Victories in the Conference indoor meet and the Drake relays make the Hawks favorites to hand the underdog Maize and Blue team its first de- feat in Iowa-Michigan cinder path history. The Wolverines chalked up a 19 1-2-62 1-2 victory in their 1926 Iowa City invasion, and in the 1927 meet at Ann 'Arbor, after trailing for the first eleven events, came back to swore a slam in the half mile and the hammer throw and emerge on the long fend of a 18-57 count. Htawks Lead In Field On the basis of}past results,I however, the Conference title- holding Iowans are expected to an- nex their first victory at the ex- pense of the Wolverines today. While the two teams rate nearly equally in the track events, withI Michigan, even holding a slight edge due to supremacy in the dash- es, the Hawkeye domination of the broad jump and pole vault with equal ratings in the other field events appears sufficient to give the Old Gold and Black a scant' margin of victr. The dashes are expected to prove Michigan's strongest events, as the Wolverine trio of Tolan, Grodsky, and Murray should outclass Pape, Stamats, and Stevenson. Tolan has been a consistent placer in both indoor and outdoor meets, and is rated a sure winner in both the 100 and 200 yard events. Iowa May Take 440 If Coach Bresnahan decided to enter Baird, Olympic 440 star, in either event, another place may go to Iowa, as the Hawkeye has covered the 100 in 9.9 seconds and the 200 in 21.5. Stamats, who placed in the 1928 Conference meet, is expected to gain points in the 220, and may take a third in thej 100. Members of Iowa's mile relay. team, winner of this event at the Conference indoor and Drake meets, are favored to annex a ma- jority of the points in the 440 yard run. With Baird, Hawkeye Olym- pic star, expected to win and Stevenson and Ferguson, Iowa should take two places from the fast Wolverine trio of the Seymour twins, Dale, and Dalton, and1 Freese. Gunn and Moulton, members of Iowa's two mile relay quartet, should take places in the half mile.

This leaves the Varsity without a 'match this week with the excep- tion of the Drake four man encoun- ter last Monday which the Wolver- ines won by a 5-1 count. The Courtwright coached team will play host to Indiana here Monday on the Ferry field courts. Weather conditions so far this season have been most unfavorable to the interests of the netmen. More than the usual amount of rain and high winds have been the lot of the court enthusiasts and a type of play which would ensure an approximation to mid-season form has been impossible. The cancellation of the Colgate and State matches has also come as a blow. While the ability of the New Yorkers is practically un- known Staterisbelieved to boast a strong team this year and the Michigan netmen had hoped for some valuable competitive play. Swan, Pennington, and Jennings all playing for the Spartans this year have shown an improved style of play and should have been able to make things interesting for the Wolverines. Tankmen Are Given Gold Watch Charms Fifteen members of Michigan's Conference championship swim- ming team were awarded gold watch charms Thursday night at a banquet marking the conclusion of a successful season. Director Fielding H. Yost made the presen- tation. The Varsity lettermen re- ceiving the charms were Captain Spindle, captain-elect Ault, Hub- bell, Bailey, Seager, Watson, Mc- Donald, Walker, Walaitis, Reif,; Goldsmith, Thompson, Mertz, War- ner, and Grimshaw. Coach Matt Mann praised the members of the team for their efforts in winning the Big Ten title for the third straight year and; taking second to Northwestern in the national collegiate meet. Direc- tor Yost, Spindle, Ault, and Pro- fessors Brier and Levine, represent- ing the faculty swimming group, were also among the speakers. The banquet concluded with the presentation of a golf bag and set' of clubs to Coach Mann in recog- nition of his loyalty and services to the promotion of swimming. The clubs and bag were a gift from the Varsity team and the faculty swim- ming class. The graduating mem- bers of the team, Spindle, Hubbell, Watson, Seager, and Bailey, also came in for an ovation.

Bucky Harris, Tiger manager, sent George Uhle to work on the; mound and the ex-Indian turned in a good game. This makes Uhle's fourth straight game he has won this season. To put a climax to the game Charlie Gehringer smashed out a home run in the ninth and brought in two of his team mates ahead of him. Detroit collected a total of nine hits off the White Sox's moundsman, Thomas, while Uhle allowed only five hits to the Sox. In all other cases games were' called in both of t1~e leagues due to the cold weather prevailing throughout the country, or the grounds were too wet on account of the two days drenching they re- ceived.

Thurs- day's downpour converted Ferry field into a veritable mire, making playing conditions impossible. Western State officials advised Coach Fisher yesterday that the diamond is inundated, forcing can- cellation of today's game. The Wolverines will next see action on Monday, when Meiji university of Japan will come here for the first of a two-game series. If the elements relent, Coach Fisher will hold a practice session after the Iowa track meet this aft- ernoon. It is expected that the diamond will be dry enough to per- mit a short workout. The players ,have been forced to lay off since last Wednesday. Weather conditions have been the worst he has experienced in his nine years at Ann Arbor, according to Coach Fisher. Rain and wet grounds have'caused the cancella- tion of six games on the Wolverine schedule. Two games with Colgate, and single contests with Vander- but, Iowa, Syracuse, and Western State Teachers College have been eliminated by the elements. The Michigan team has been without a game since April 27, when Syracuse scored a 5-3 victory. The last Big Ten contest was on April 17, when Michigan defeated Northwestern.

Barnard is more convinced than ever that the Yankees have a real fight on their hands in the Amer- ican league pennant race this sea- son. "Just keep your eyes on Phila- delphia." Barnard hinted. "They are going to surprise everybody.{ They are dangerous from the top of the batting order down to the eighth man. "The Yankees so far have shown they do not have the steadiness of recent campaigns. This is indicat- ed by their record of this spring as compared to last.
