and a slam in the 880. No compar-
ison could be made in the relay1
with the Badgers as they failed to
wire their results. Alix again took
high point honors with 11 to his
credit by means of a third and two
first places.
Renwick's time of :06.4 in the,
sprints proved to be too good a time
for either of the opposing sprinters.
Moissio also took first in the high}
jump over both the Minnesota and
Wisconsin jumpers by repeating his:
fine{ performance with a six-foot
jump. Myers' broad jump of 21 ft.
6 in. was also good enough for first;
places in both meets. Heston an-
nexed two firsts in the low hurdles
as did Lassala in the pole vault.

probably run into the strongest
competition on the cinder path of
the year, the Big Red team having
proved its power by taking third in
the Eastern Intercollegiate meet
while Michigan was walking off
with the honors in the Western
Conference last Saturday.
Since their first encounter in
1902, Michigan has scored 11 vic-
tories to Cornell's six. Last year,
however, the team from Ithica took
the measure of Steve Farrell's men
by a score of 63 to 32. According to
appearances Coach Hoyt has a
much stronger squad than that
which represented the Wolves in
the last encounter, ..with a better
chance to build up Michigan's list
of wins.
Michigan's hopes will rest chief-
ly on the same group of men who
carried the Wolves to a Big Ten
championship. Eddie Tolan, Camp-
bell, and Smythe will represent the
Hoyt aggregation in the dash;
Egleston, Haefele, and Jackson in
the hurdles; Russell, Glading, Mos-
ser, and Mueller in the 440; Turner
and Braden in the 880; Wolfe in
the mile; Austin, Howell, and Hill
in the two mile; Eknovich or Muel-
ler, DeBaker, Glading, and Russell
in the mile relay; Captain Pottle in
the pole vault; Noyes and Cox in
the high jump; and Goldsmith in
the shot put.
