RICH RECEIVES AWARI
Spring football activities will be
concluded with . a meeting ,;at 7:30
o'clock tonight at the Union of all
candidates for the 1929 football
squads. Featuring the meeting will
be the announcement of the win-
ner of the Chicago Alumni Trophy
for tpis year.
All of the men who turned out
for spring practice are eligible for
this trophy the basis of whoset
award is dependent upon four ma-
'jor qualifications, namely, general
improvement during the spring
training season, attitude, attend-
ance, and prospective value to next
fall's Varsity.
Awarded to Outstanding Players
In past years this award has gone
to some of the most outstanding
players on Wolverine grid teams.
Four years ago Bauer, one of the
strongest linemen in recent an-
nuals, was given the Chicago tro-
phy. The following year Geo. Rich,
who was later to captain a Maize
and Blue eleven, showed the most
promise during the sring season
and was given the award. Two4
years ago the honor was bestowed'
upon Kip Taylor whose injury the
following fall kept him out of the
lineup most of the, season. Last
year Holmes received the trophy.
Check on Attendance
Special care is taken during the
spring training season to check the
attendance. and attitude of the can-
didates throughout the whole pe-
riod. While these two qualifications
are not the most important, they
nevertheless figure heavily in the
final awarding of the trophy. The
other two important qualifications,
improvement and prospective value
to the Varsity of the following. fall,'
go hand in hand and, are the chief
factors considered in bestowing this
honor.
The Chicago Trophy is a full sized.
silver football, one of whici is given
a Michigan football man each
spring. It is given by the Chicago
.University of Michigan Alumni as-
sociation.
KENTUCKY DERBY WINNER
FAILS IN ENGLISH RACES
KEMPTON, Eng., May 12.-(AP)-
For the third time since invading
.England, Reigh Count today.,failed
to show the class that ranked hin
as the United States' leading 3-
year-old in 1928.
Although the performance of the
1928 Kentucky Derby winner, was
disappointing, the colt's. progress is
being watched with interest by
English turfmnen.
With the game at Ohio State'
called off because of the rain,
Coach Fisher of ; the Wolverine*
'baseball team feels that had his
men been able to perform Monday
they would have been in the best
condition of the year. The team
as a. whole has shown, great im-
provenment over their form before'
the Illinois game, and now the
greatest help they can have is to
play some games in order to get
the players used to competition.
Hitting has picked up since last
week, but Coach Fisher put the
men through another long batting
drill again last night so that they*
would not lose their eye due to
long lay-offs. The pitchers also
rounded into better condition, and
although they too need games to
be at their best, the MichiganI
coach feels that his twirlers will
turn back most of the teams they
have to face.
Fred Asbeck will probably "be
slated to take the mound when the
Wolverines face Northwesteri on
the trip thisbweekend, while Bill
jMcAfee will be used against Pur-
due. Asbeck has not had an op-
portunity to pitch in a regular
game for two weks, butCoach
Fisher fhas been piutting him,
through long drills against the
Michigan batters so that the big
right hander will be able to step
into the box and display his best
ball.
McAfee, after the start of the
Illinois game, showed all of the

UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA
-"Get married and make Phi
Bete." This seems to be a good
motto, for married students at this1
University are receiving better
grades than those who prefer to
stay single.
UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA'
-Minnesota has the right idea., It
has been proposed that a Student
Union be built at this University,
the construction to be financed by
raising the student fees one dol-
lar.
The Daily tell us that some east-
ern college has added eight busts
to the hall of fame. Well, some-
one had to do something on Swing

It is perhaps significant that

and can be depended upon to give
plenty of trouble to the opposing
batters for the rest of the year..j
In addition, Montague, a junior
playing his first year on the Var-
sity squad has been showing well
lately and may get a chance to
break into the regular line-up in
one of these games.
With two invasions of foreign
fields scheduled before the end of
the season, and a game with Ohio
State scheduled for the final ap-'
pearance of the Wolverines in ; Big
Ten baseball this year, Michigan
.will have -several hard tests of
their ability if they are to take an-
other Conference title.
HELP, TOWOLVERINElS
Wisconsin slipped another notch
in the -Big Ten baseball standings
when it bowed to the in and out
Illinois team a0 Madison last Mon-
day. As a. result of the Badgers'
defeat, Michigan become more
firmly entrenched at the head of
the conference standings, while
Wisconsin, who had been the Wol-
verine's 1most dangerous contend-
er, slipped back to a tie for second
with Indiana and Iowa.
In the, only other conference
game played Monday, Chicago
whitewashed Purdue 9 to 0, send-
ing the Boilermakers farther down
the chute, and deadlocking them
with Ohio State, one step out of
the cellar.
Chicago rose to fifth place in1
the standings by virtue of its win
over Purdue. The Maroons now
boast of a record which has passedj
the .500 mark for the first time this
season.
Bower, Illini hurler, turned in a
well pitched game to give the Wis-
consin title hopes a severe jolt,
limiting the Badgers to five hits
and drubbing them, 8 to 4. Illinois
fell upon the. offerings of Farber,
Wisconsin ace, to pound out 12
hits and 8 runs in eight innings,
before Ellerman could be rushed
into the game to stave bff the,
heavy attack of the Illini slug-,
gers. The Badgers' support was'
poor, the team kicking in with five
errors.h, Dorn and Walker, with
three hits apiece, led the Illinois
batters.
