PROVIDENCE, R. I., Mar. 27.-
(U)-John Devine, wiry 135-pound!
wrestler from Oklahoma A. and M.
turned in an iron man's perform-
ance to gain the semi-final round
of the National Collegiate A. A.
wrestling championship tourna-
ment here tonight at the Brdwn
gymnasium.
Devine advanced into the second
round late this afternoon by out-
pointing F. B. Shaw, of Lehigh,
eastern intercollegiate champion,
and then, after a short rest, clash-
ed with Joe Woodard, rugged Uni-
versity of Michigan entry, in a
match that was ordered into two
extra three-minute periods.
Woodard drew a first-round bye
and was in much better physical
shape than the cowboy collegian
when they started. The Woverine
mat star had matters his ov. way
during the early stages but Devine
slowly overcame his advantage
with a sp=ctacular rally and during
the second overtime session, ob-
Stained the upper hand, exercising
it often enough to clinch the deci-
sion.
Dougovito, the other Michigan
entry in the national meet, is sched-'
uled to wrestle in the matches
I today.

Fisher Postpones Outdoor Work
Until Next Week; Squad
Has Few Injuries.
Outdoor practice for the Michi-
gan baseball squad planned by
Coach Ray Fisher to begin yester-
day was postponed due to the in-
element weather until next week.
Keen disappointment at the inabil-
ity to get his men out on the play-
ing field was expressed by the
coach, as he was particularly anx-
ious to give the infielders and out-
fielders a chance to exert them-
selves a little.
Though these men are practicing
daily at the field house they are
necessarily held in restraint by the
moie or less crowded conditions
prevailing there, and nothing would
be more beneficial now than a good
outdoor workout.
Ratters Hitting hard.
Hard hinting was the feature of
yesterday's practice with the bat-
ters pounding the offerings of the
several pitchers to all corners of
the cages and rarely attempting to
hit a poor ball. Coach Fisher is well
pleased with the steady improve-
ment of the batters despite the ex-
isting conditions, and if the im-
provement continues a strong of-
fense should be built up by the time
the team is off on its spring trip.
Though some of the pitchers
which engaged in yesterday's ses-
sion were treated rather roughly by
the batters, Coach Fisher is of the
opinion that this is due in some
cases to overwork rather than a
lack of condition.
Few Injuries.
Coach Fisher has been fortunate
this year in the matter of injuries.
The squad as a whole shapes up in
excellent condition and with the ex-

Detroit baseball fans may see a new brother act this year that will rival the Waner and Waner com-
bination of Pittsburgh. Gerald and Harvey Walker are the brothers. Coming up from the Three Eye Lea-
gue, the two look god for major league outfield posts. Waite Hoyt, star hurler, and Charlie Gehringer,
one of the best second basemen in the majors, are two veterans upon whom Manager Buckey Harris is
depending to keep the Tigers in the race.

The ELECTROCHEF wa designed with this thought in mind.
Simply wiping with a damp cloth keeps the white enamel

as easy as cleaning a china dish. The range itself is so
strikingly modern that it helps to modernize my kitchen.

All corners are rounded, even inside the oven, and the
