THURSDAY NIGHT Announcing the time of the tri- angular meet with Michigan State and Michigan State 'Norml as; Thursday, February 27, at 8 p. m.,, Coach Steve Farrell sought to cor- rect a false impression that the meet was scheduled for Wednes-' day. It is the first time in the his- tory of the three schools that these; teams have been slated to compete1 with each other on the indoor, track. Pottle Eligible. With the probable addition of Pottle, leading Varsity pole vaulter, the Michigan squad should be con- siderably strengthened.

The Michigan track mentor ex- pressed disappointment with the way in which the varsity sprinters appeared in the meet last Satur- day, but stated that there were no alibis for the defeat at the hands of Chicago. He added that Dalton Seymour's fall in the 440 was a mis- hap and nothing more than one NEWEST RED SEIXTEIT OFIORM IN GOIPHER SEIE1Sl Wolverines' Teamwork Lacking' Against Weak Minnesota Hockey Outfit.

DANIELS LEADS SCORERS After watching his charges play their best basketball of the season against the Hoosier basketeers, Coach Veenker was content to send the Wolverine quintet through a light drill yesterday afternoon while the reserves engaged in a short workout against the fresh- man five. According to reports from Indi- ana, the Hoosiers played a dead, listless type of ball, while, accord- ing to the Wolverine standpoint, the Maize and Blue quintet had possession of the ball for such a large portion of the game that the Indiana five could not have played a different sort of game if they had been in the pink of condition: From both sides it is' agreed that the Michigan five displayed an ex- ceptional brand of 'hasketball on the defense. With the exception of a few minutes during the last of the first half and the first of the second half, the Hoosiers were un- able to approach anything resem- bling a solutlion of the Wolverine defense.- McCracken,dwho accounted for 11 of his team's 18 points, with five field goals and one free throw, was 1 the only Indiana player to work consistently against the Wolverines. Then only one of his shots could be blamed to any faulty guarding on the part of Captain Chapman who was assigned to stqp the flashy Hoosier star.
