MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., May 11.-
Michigan's undefeated track team
triumphed today at the expense of
the Gophers by a score of 82 to 53
in a meet featured by several thril-
ling races and good marks in all
events. Scoring nine first places as
against five for the Gophers and
dividing first honors in the high
jump, the Wolverines were at no
time in serious danger of being
outpointed by the local team.
Otterness was the high point man
of the day with 13 markers, while
Ketz wassecond with 10.kThe ver-
satile Gopher tied with his team
mate Hess in the pole vault, won
the high hurdles, and tied with
Felker of Michigan in the high
jump. Ketz won the hammer and
the javelin.
Hess and Otterness tied at 13 feet
2 inches to win the pole vault and
on a try for a record Hess barely
inissed 13 feet 6 inches. Otterness
took a nasty fall on his try when
his pole broke.
Grodsky Takes Dash
Grodsky and Tolan o Micnlgan
and Rhea of Minnesota, finished
the hundred in that order in 10
seconds flat. Tolan allowed his
team mate to win as he took sec-
ond looking back over his shoulders.
In the 220 yard event, Tolan easily
took first from Rhea and Grodsky
in 22.4 seconds.
The mile run furnished one of
he th rillo of the -afternoon when
Strain, Minnesota, finished two
yards ahead of Monroe after
stirring last lap fighting.
Another thriller was the quarter
mile in which the Seymour Twins
cooperated nicely to beat Catlin,
the Gopher ace. The brothers ran
a heady race and kept Catlin on
the outside most of the way. Com-
ing down the home stretch the I
three were even but Dale Seymour
pulled out in front to nose out Cat-
lin. Dalton Seymour was a close
third. Time 51 seconds.
Ketz came through with his sec-
ond win of the day when he beat

CALDWELL URGES
RULES FOR RADIO
(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, May 11.-Radio
communications with foreign coun-
tries and within this country now
trend toward monopoly which calls
for rigid regulations, Louis G. Cald-
well, former counsel for the radio
commission, today told the Senate
Interstate Commerce commission.
Caldwell testified at the hearing
of the committee conducted on the
bill of Senator Couzens designed to
regulate radio, telegraph, telephone,
and cables in interstate transmis-
sion through a federal communica-
tions commission
The monopoly, Caldwell declared,
did not include the field of broad-
casting, where he said that the
;hains are merely killing their pro-
grams.
.'I regard radio," he said, "as one
of our most valuable natural re-
sources, and without rigid regula-
tion there will be no anarchy."
FRESHMEN ANNEX
SECONDVICTORY
Cane-Spree Results In Draw, While
New Men Triumph In Rope- Ty-
ing And Lose One Event.
CLASS LOSES ALL GAMES
Roping and imprisoning practic-
ally all members of the sophomore
class who had turned out for the
final half of the traditional under-
class games, yesterday morning at
South Ferry field the class of '32
captured the final event and the
necessary two points for their sec-
ond victory over the sophomores.
Preceding encounters in the spring
games had.been halfed by the riv-
al classes, but the rope tieing con-
test gave the freshmen a 4 1-2 to
2 1-2 win.
Outnumbering in large propor-
tions their immediate superiors,
the yearlings met little difficulty in
administering a decisive beating to
the sophomores. When the al-
lotted 15 minute period had ex-
pired, the class of '32 had tied and
penned some 50 sophomores, while
the second year men had but 16
opponents in their prison. The
only sophomores who escaped be-
ing roped were those who guarded
the pen.
In the other two events, the cane
spree and the obstacle race, the
sophomores secured a slight ad-
vantage, evening the points after
their defeat n the tugs-of-war on
Frday afternoon. The obstacle
race was a one point victory for
the second year class, while the
cane spree resulted in a half-point
for each of the opposing classes.
For the tugs on the preceding
afternoon, the freshmen had se-
cured two points, while the sopho-
mores were awarded one for the
winning the second of the picked
men encounter.

AND KEEPS SEASON'S RECORD CLEAN.
INDIANS LIMITED TO FOUR HITS WHILE
WOLVES SECURE EIGHT SAFETIES
OFF ANDREWS' DELIVERY
By Ednard L. Warner
Masterful pitching by Bill McAfee gave Michigan a 5,1 vic-
tory over Illinois yesterday afternoon on Ferry Field as the Wol-
verines retained their position as leaders in the Conference diamond
race. McAfee limited the Illini to four hits, while, his mates ga-
thered eight safeties off the delivery of Capt. Don Andrews.
- The largest crowd of the season, approximating 5,000 people
watched Coach Fisher's team win its second Big Ten victory of
the season. Threatening storm clouds failed to keep down the
attendance.
McAfee was in rare form today as he tamed the Illini, re-
tiring eighlt of the opposition by tfie strike-out route. But for an
error by Kubicek in the fourth inning, the Wolverine. mound ace
might have
more than
scored a shut-out. This was the only inning in which
four batters faced him. Michigan's batting power,

WILL SPEAK HERE
.Eminent Philologist Will Talk On
Relation Of Languages And
History Temorrow.'
LECTURE TO BE IN FRENCH
How the history of civilization
is dependant on the development,
of language will be discussed by
Prof. Wilhelm Meyer-Luebke at
4:15 o'clock tomo. row afternoon in
Natural Science auditorium, it was
annouhced yestbIrday at headquatt'
ers of the department of Romance
languages.
Professor Meyer-Luebke, who in
the opinion of Prof. Hugo P.
Thieme, of the Romance languages
department, is the most eminent
living Romance philologist, is at
present making a brief tour of the
United States. The University is
one of four in the entire country
which he has chosen to visit, it
was announced.. The other uni-
versities to be similarly honored
are Northwestern, Chicago and
Minnesota.
His lecture will be delivered in
French, according to Professor
Thieme. He is willing to speak
either French or German, but it l
was thought that there are more
students on the campus who un-,
derstand French than who under-
stand German.
Professor Meyer-Luebke was born
in Switzerland. He has been pro-
fessor of Romance languages in
the universities of Zurich, Jena,
Bonn, and Vienna, where he now
is. He has been Rector of the
latter institution.
Aside from many published arti-
cles, he is the author of many
monumental works, including an
Italian grammar, a French histori-
cal grammar, 'and "Introduction to'
the Science of Romance Linguis-1
tics," the four volume "Grammar
of the Romance Languages," and
'the "Etymological Dictionary of the
Romance languages.""'
came to light today as the- Wol-
verines scored five runs on eight
hits, three walks and ran errvr.
Ernie McCoy led his mates with the
stick, getting a pair of singles,
while Corridon and McAfee were
the only Michigan men who failed
to hit safely.
The Wolverines went into a one-
run lead in the first inning. After
Nebelung and Corrid anr grounded
out, Straub singled past second and
then stole second. Kubicek then
scored Straub from the keystone
sack by singling past first.
Illinois Stages Come-Back
Illinois came back to tie the
count in the fourth frame. Walk-
er walked and went to third when
Kubicek muffed up O'Grad y's
grounder.' Brown then singled to
center, scoring. Walker. Williams
forced O'Grady at third, McAfee
to Winetraub. Brown and Wil-
liams then Worked a double steal.
Yule flied to Walker, and the Illini
runners were left stranded when
Weintraub made a great stop and
throw of Snyder's grounder, going
way in to take the ball,
Again Michigan came back to
score after two men were retired
With Straub and Kubicek- already
out in the fourth, Weintraub sin-
gled to center. McCoy scratched
a single off Brown's glove sending
Weintraub to third. When McCoy
drew Synder's throw to second,
Weintraub scored from third.
Myron ended the inning by strik-.
ing out.
Michigan Has Good Inning
Michigan came to life again in
the seventh to send three runs
across the plate and make sure of
victory. Myron led off with a hard
triple along the left field foul line,
and scored a moment later when
Truskowski doubled to right cen-
ter. McAfee sacrificed Truskow-
ski to third, and then Nebelung
walked.
Truskowski scored and' Nebe-
lung went to second when Andrews
committed a balk. Corriden flied
out, but Straub reached second
and Nebelung scored when 'Yule
threw low to first on ' the Mich -
gan right fielder's grounder.

board of trustee. School has been
ordered closed.
.One hundred and fifty under-
graduates surrounded the adminis-

and stones as the board members'
retired to nearby closets. The stu-
dents were protesting, it is under-
stood, the ousting by the trustees
today of the entire faculty, includ-
ing Dr. Harry Wayman, president.
A police riot call was turned in,
and nffiet jwre sent to the cam-
Yesterday the board was called
'o consider requesting the resigna-
tions of Dr. T. T. Shields and Mis'
Edith Rebman, as members of the
board. The meeting was said to
have been instigated by; Dr. Way-
man, who previously had refused
to follow suggestions of Dr. Shield:
that seven members of the univer-
sity faculty be discharged.
Dr. Shields was said to have held
that Dean A. E. Bennett of the
college pf education and Professor
E. L. Grimes were guilty of indis-
creet modernistic utterances. The
board today, however, instead of
requesting the resignations of Miss
Rebman and Dr. Shields, vindicat-
ed them and ousted Dr. Wavnan
"Too many sons do not get to
understand their fathers until they
are well along in life, and many
never throughly understand them,"
Jude William L. Day, 'OOL, in ad-
dressing more than 500 fathers1
and sons at the banquet last night
in observance of the Union's sev-
enth annual Father and Son
week-end. "A real understanding
is not obtained by the father treat-
ing the son as a baby, nor by the
son feeling that his father is some
strange person who could not pos-
sibly understand him,' he contin-
ued.
"Humanity never hanced anyone,"
said Judge Day. "People who come
to Michigan are human; they are
not the socially ambitious who ship
their sons off to some Eastern
school, but they send them to Mich-

of parents who will provide leader-

"The question before the country

"How far one gets in the world
depends greatly on the way one I
makes use of what he knows, and
how he utilizes the opportunities
which parents, university and state
are endeavoring to give him," he
concluded.
Carl Brandt of the speech de-
