THE MICHIGAN DAILY FRIAYMARCH 20, 1931 3 Games for 1931 Season Players May Aid Connie Mack's Team MICHIGAN, CORNELL HAVE EQUAL I'T in Drive for Another World Championship CHANCES FOR VICTORY ON TRACKN TO s ' 1111 TinflifI nrrr * 4 ______________________ 4.. ____________________ ~.4.. .~ I 4 ,. 7 By Bill Myers With the Red and White squad of thinclads from the East holding a decided superiority in the field events while the Hoytmen maintain an equal advantage in the sprints, ihe 440, 880 and the relay, the re- spective totals stack up such that it is enough to make the dopesters f .flip a coin to see just which team is going to win, when the final re- lay is run off tomorrow night to close one of the most evenly matched dual meets in the history of the classic. At present, Michigan looks to be the favorite, but the best prediction is that the team which garners the majority of hon- ors in the hurdles and the mile will carry off the meet. Considering the individual events the winners on a basis of past ex- periences are as follows: 60-yard dash: Tolan is the out- standing prospect to capture a first for the Michigan totals in this event. If he can get down to :06.3 or lower he has things all his own way with Campbell good for sec- ond place. Meinig of Cornell is the only Red threat. Wolves Favored in Hurdles. 60-yard low hurdles: Here comes the enigma. We will give the event to Michigan with either Egleston or Jackson taking the first. Hart will be good for second for Cornell, the third place is also Michigan's. 60-yard high hurdles: Again it's a toss-up, but similarly our bet is again on Egleston with Hart taking second and Haefele or Jackson third. 440-yard run: This is good for a slam for the Maize and Blue. Procter is Cornell's only threat, but does not rank with any of the Michigan quartetw of Russell, Glad- ing, DeBaker, or Eknovich. Russell is back on the track after a little trouble with his leg. 880-,yard run: Will be won by Turner of the Varsity with a mark of about 1:59.7 with Braden second, 1 and Eckert taking a third for the j Red and White. Turner ranks far above any Cornell entrant. Mile run: Besides being one of the best events on tomorrow's bill, this one will go a long way toward deciding the meet. Martin of Cor- nell set a.new record of 4:24.6 in the Yale meet which is better than Wolfe has done as yet this year. However, our coin came down on edge so our bet is on the Michigan man for first place. Finch of Cor- nell is good for third if he isn't beaten out by his own teammate, Mulligan. Austin in Two-Mile. i Two-mile run: A great event, but I two places ought to go to Michigan, with Austin doing his usual 9:32 to beat out Ranney, the Cornell top man. Howell or Hill, however, will have a tough time trying to take a third from Crosby and Kellog, two other Reds who have been pressing Ranney. High jumnp: H-lere comes Cornell's big opportunity, for it looks like a slam for the far East with Ebel- hare, Haidt and Hoppenstedt- tak- ing all three places. Gafill has been# showing some improvement, and could take a third if he keeps his head. Pole vault: Another boom for the Ithaca point sheet with Colyer, na- tional intercollegiate champion tak- ing the event with a jump of 13 feet or better. Beloff of Cornell and Pottle of Michigan are the logical contenders to battle it out for sec- ond around the 12 ft. 6 in. mark unless Pottle loses his temper again, for if that is the case something else may be the result. Cornell Picked To Take Shot. Shot put: Schoenfeld of Cornell is plenty good for a first in this event with a toss of over 45 feet, while his teammate, Gordon, is an- nexing the second place. Goldsmith is the only Wolverine who may be a possibility for a third place. Mile relay: A sure five points for the Michigan total with Russell, Glading, Egleston, and DeBaker making up the winning quartet. BASEBALL SCHEDULE Apr. 13-St. Xavier, there.

IN WIIUNRLI MLI Coach Matt Mann to Take Ten Men to Meet at Chicago on March 27, 28. Michigan will send a squad of ten men to Chicago March 27 and 28 to compete in the National In- tercollegiate Swimming meet at the Lake Shore Athletic Club. The Wolverines have won the title in the Western Conference this year and did it by the largest marginal score in years, one world record and three conference marks being lowered during the meet. Coach Matt Mann will leave with the following squad next Thurs- d a y: Captain Valentine, Smith, Ladd, Raike, Miller, Kennedy, Klint- worth, Marcus, Fenske, and Schmie- ler. Rutgers and Princeton, among the leading tank squads of the east, will be hard pushed by this aggre- gation of first class swimmers, one of Michigan's strongest in some time, and a real threat in any meet. Schmieler to Lead Attack. Johny Schmieler, sophomore tank star of the season, will be the big- gest gun in the artillery that Mich- igan will present at the meet. In the Conference meet held here he set a new world record in the 220- yard breast stroke, clipping off two- fifths of a second from the old mark to set one of 2:31.4. Again I in the 220 race he set a Big Ten Imark of 2:17.4, and followed soon after with knocking the back stroke record down 1.6 seconds to make Marsh of Minnesota work to low- er that 1.2 seconds more in the semi-finals, and finally .4 again in the finals to get a new record of 1.43 flat for the event. Besides the sterling work of Ken- nedy who made a record swil in the quarter-mile of 5:06.4 for a new Conference record, and who may nose out the intercollegiate stars at the nationals, Michigan is strong in the 400-yard relay, and medley re- lay numbers. With the picked ten men that he is taking with him to Chicago, Coach Matt Mann expects to make good showing for the Maize aid Blue to add to the season's splendid record. Strong in Diving. The Wolverines have been on top all season and they are not yet ready to relinquish the honors to any other team of tankmen,' at least not,. with out pushing said team to exhibit the finest kind of (Continued on Page 7) #i I a r 0 Poughkeepsie Regatta GRID DRILLS HELD Dates Moved Forward ON SKYSCRAPER NEW YORK, Mar. 19.-(A)-The PHILADELPHIA, Mar. .19.-(P)- date for the annual intercollegiate rowing a s s o c i a t i o n regatta at Temple University football players Poughkeepsie has been advanced are having spring football practice from June 17 to 16.
