This will give his two best hurlers, Whitey Wistert and Art Patchin, a rest for the M. S. C. game the next day. Although the weather was better for soccer than baseball, the entire squad went through practice with the snap that shows it means business for the boys from State. Climax To Spring Tigers Defeat Grid Training Is White Sox I Exhibition May 6 A brisk wind that chilled everyone on Ferry Field yesterday afternoon prevented Coach Harry Kipke and his protegees from doing much ex- cept warm up on blocking and signal' fundamentals. The Coach had one of his star cameramen "shooting" members of the squad with a cinema kodak as they punted, blocked, and ran in their best form. "Kip" plans to use the pictures in improving and ironing out the bad points in the form and action of each player. The remainder of this week will be devoted to drill on fundamentals and scrimmage, but next week the squad will put its effort towards the exhibition to be given on Ferry Field along with the track meet on May 6. On this date a morning practice ses- sion will be public, and a game be- tween divisions of the squad in the stadium will feature the afternoon's program. Campus Sports 30 Years Ago Were PopularAmong Students By SIDNEY FRANKEL In comparison with the some twen- ty-odd intramural sports popular on the Michigan campus today, only three held much importance here 30 years ago. The man who has seen over eight college generations of freshmen pass through his hands and furnished us with an interesting story about ath- letics 30 years ago is Dr. George A. May. Only three sports were popular on this campus then, these being foot- ball, track, and baseball. Of these sports, men students could take part in either of two fields, the varsity or the interclass games. There was no form of the Intramural activities that are prevalent on the Michigan campus today. Football and baseball were the most popular of the sports and both. varsity and interclass games were at-! tended by many students and towns-I people. In football, many teams were formed, one for each class in each of the Lit. Medical, Dental, Engineer- ing, and Law schools. Talk about football in the good days should bring back to the mem- ories of the old grads or whoever were students at that time the co- menorable grid battle in 1903 be- tween the Laws and the Engineers, in which the long run for a touch- down by Archie Hahn of the Laws was the incidental cause for a fight right there on the field between the both classes that put an end to the annual game. Another of the grid frays that caused much excitement in Ann Ar- bor and pulled large crowds was the Annual Soph-Frosh game which not infrequently never reached the end of the allotted time and saw some minor incident precipitate a bloody battle between the two underclasses. Coach "Hurry-up" Yost, present University athletic director, who at that time, was young in the experi- ences of Michigan athletics, would often referee the class games. Baseball, although not attended to with the hilarious excitement that characterized football, nevertheless was popular and drew as many teams and students for participation. Each spring, managers were out early get- ting their teams in condition. Large crowds of onlookers saw the games and made the days of the games gala-affairs. In track, the important student event. was the annual cross-country run sponsored by the Michigan Cross Country Club, in which the first five to finish were awarded "C. C. C.'s" and given ribbons." i .I L? Higher Clothing Prices Call it "inflation" or "reflation," wool has advanced 66 2-3 per cent. Higher wool prices mean higher c o t h in gprices.
