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.

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.
