June 16 Is Date Set for Dual Crew Race (Special to The Dail.) MADISON, Wis., May 26-Follow- ing negotiations between Coaches Mike Murphy of Wisconsin and Al: Ulbrickson of Washington, the date for the regatta between the Bad- ger and Husky varsity, junior var- sity, and freshman crews has been definitely set for Monday, June 16, with the understanding that in the event of unfavorable weather con- ditions the races may be put over to the following day. The University of Washington crews have always beaten the Bad-' gers in their previous meetings and are reported to be unusually strong this year. The Badger crews, al-1 though their progress has not been; entirely satisfactory to Coach Mur-_ phy, are generally expected to prove the best which have sported the cardinal in a number of years. i. reatlty encouraged over thne ( Northwestern last Friday and Sat- team's highly improved showing in urday. the 10-4 defeat of Wisconsin at Madison last Saturday, Coach Fish- Ini addition to being the er yesterday sent his Varsity nine eleventh title won by the Maize into a practice game with the and Blue since the first corn- freshman team to inaugurate the ptition 30 years ago., Satur- last week of practice before the fin- day's victory brought Farrell's al Conference tilt of the season. average up to one champion- With the team flashing a new ship out of every three since spirit and an improved play, Mich- he assumed his duties as Mich- igan's hopes for a second victory igan track mentor in 1912. over the Badgers in the coming Saturday classic look decidedly i The outstanding figure in the { bright.

However, the Suckers, leading by 1 1-2 points with only two events to be run off, were in no position to feel confident of victory and the Michigan hopes seemed rather dimmed despite the fact that five ' points could be counted on in the hammer throw with Holly Camp- bell doing the tossing. As a result the outcome of the entire meet rested upon the comparative showings i ade by the two leading teams !in the one mile relay. Illi- nois threw a scare into the Wolverine fans early in this race by stepping out in front of the field. Dalton Seymour, however, made a fast baton pass to Mueller who forged into the lead. He soon dropped back, but Russell, the third Michigan man, proved the hero by pas- sing all the runners to give Dale Seymour a seven yard lead into the final lap. Sey-! mour added a few yards to this advantage and clinched the title for the winners. 'BIG TEN LEADERS5 HERE NSATURDAY Wisconsin Team Can Avenge Loss at Madison and Cop Title by Winning Game. NET TEAM AT CHICAGO Headlining the home athletic schedule for the week will be a baseball game scheduled for Sat- urday with Wisconsin. The- Bad- gers, leading the Big Ten race up to last Saturday when the Wolver- ines gave them a surprise 10-4 beating on their home field will have to win the game this week if they are to collect the Conference title, and it is certain that they will play their best ball against the Maize and Blue in an atempt to gain revenge for their recent de- feat. The last Big Ten spring sport championship will be decided when the tennis players from all of the Western Conference schools gather at Chicago Thursday and Friday to match shots for the champion- ship. Tennis Team Seeks Title. Michigan, already winners of the dual meet title will be slightly fa- vored to take the team title, al- though Illinois and Chicago both have powerful aggregations which may cause some trouble. North- western defeated the Wolverines in the first match of the year, but have fared rather badly since then. The only other home contest in addition to the Wisconsin baseball game is a game with the University of Cincinnati nine which will be played at Ferry Field Wednesday afternoon. On the southern trip before the Conference season start- ed the Cincinnati team won a game from Coach Fisher's men by an 8-7 score, and the Wolves are I hoping to avenge that defeat when the two teams clash this weel. Last Game Close. Michigan held the advantage throughout the first game with Cincinnati, only to allow their op- ponents to collect four runs and the game in the ninth inning. .f . , l a ATHLETIC SCHEDULE FOR THE WEEK Wednesday- Baseball- Uni- versity of Cincinnati, here.
