OUTDOOR WORK LIMITED Widness Marks Early Hurling Efforts of Rookies; Old men Look Well. Lack of experienced hurlers seems to be the chief difficulty confront- ing Coach Ray Fisher, of Michi- gan's Western Conference champ- ionsip baseball team, in the daily practice' sessions in the Yost "Field house cage. While most of the pitchers that have turned out for the team have a nice assortment of wares, their main fault lies in their inability t1 control their offerings, with the. re- sult that unless someone with con- trol can be found to aid the one or two mainstays ,upon which Coach Fisher is counting, the team will be be at a distinct disadvantage. Emphasis on Pitchers Coach Fishers attention from 16w on will be devoted chiefly to helping the hurlers in their quest to locate the plate. It appears at the present that the batters will be abo'ut on a par with those of other years, several promising new- cognes who can hit having been found to aid the holdovers fromlast year's nine, Straub, Myron, and Truskowski. Until approximately May ,l, when the tea'm will first go out on the Ferry field diamond, no real line can be drawn on either the pitch- ers or the batters, as hitting or pitching in the field house is a far different thing than it is out of doors. Several sophomores have shown 'an ability to bat that makes thei favorites in the chase to wi one of the five vacant Varsity berths. Jack Tompkins, who guarded the nets for Coach Eddie Lowrey's Con- ference hockey champions this win- ter, is slated to play the outfield when he is not toiling on the mound, his batting strength mak- ing a valuable, man to keep in ac- tive service all of the time. Must Work for Berth. Roy Hudson, who was a member of both the football and baseball squads, has a good chance of win- ning the regular first base berth, al- tholgh he will not get the assign- ment without working for it as the competition promises'to be keen. If Coach Fisher sticks to his de- cision not to take the team outside before the first of the month, the Wolverines will only get a few days of practice on the diamond before the' schedule is slated to get under way on April 12, when the Michi." gan team begins its southern trip by meeting Cincinnati at the Ohio Diver city. From that time on the games will follow each other in rapid succession, that if the Wol- verine mentor hopes to get his temne tised to playing outside after its several weeks in the field house he will have to work fast wh'en the time comes. Twenty-eight games have been scheduled for the season by the Wolverines. Foul May Give Illini FEATURE Tie With Badgers for IN V Indoor Cinder CrownI Uncertainty still hangs over the winner' of the Conference indoor track title after a report which stated that a foul committed by a Wisconsin runner might drop the Badgers into a tie with Illinois for first place.s During the mile relay at thej tournament in the Minnesota field; house one judge detected a Wiscon- sin man using unfair tactics on az turn, but failed to report the oc-! curance until the referee was on his way to Des Moines, Iowa. An official account of the matter was! sent to the referee, but until his decision is' made known action can be' taken. If. he decides to disqualify the Badgers in this race Illinois willj come up from fourth to third in it1 and add a point to its total, while Wisconsin will lose two points,4 making' them tie at 19, the lowest winning total ever recorded in this event. Michigan took fourth place inI the Indoor meet with a score of 12 1-4 points. Eddie Tolan copped second in the 60-yard dash, run-i ning second to George Simpson of! Ohio State. Another second was registered by Brooks, giant Wolver-! ine shot-putter, with Behr of W'is- consin safely lodged in first place. In the mile relay Michigan ac-I counted for another second place with the Seymour twins, Mosser, and Russell forming the quartet. Russell again helped his team to fourth place by garnering a fourth in the 440. Felker, lanky Michigan high lumper, and Pottle in the pole vault tied for third and fourth in; their events to bring the Wolverine, grand total to 12 1-4.
