place, because of a poor record in Con-
ference dual meets this year. This was
apparently to his liking, for in the
second round, Kean faced Laux, of
Northwestern, who ordinarily plays
fourth for the Wildcats, and won eas-
ily, 6-1, 6-2, and in the third round,
defeated Moll, second ranking man
for the Illini, 5-7, 7-5, 6-2, coming
from behind to do the trick.
Prior to 'eking out his win over
Black, Joe Appelt beat Sink, of North-
western, in the second round, 6-2, 8-6.
Sink is a number two man for the
Wildcats.
Sam Siegel was the only Wolverine
who was able to get through his
matches in two sets. Besides downing
Becker, 6-0, 6-0, Siegel won out over
Flecher, an Iowan, in the second
round, 7-5, 6-2.
Diminutive Howie Kahn won his
first two matches, but experienced a
bit of hard luck in drawing Lowrey,
outstanding Boilermaker star, in his
third pairing. Kahn went through
Bergman of Wisconsin, 6-1, 6-2, and
Santangelo, of Ohio, 6-4, 6-1, in quick
succession, but Lowrey was too much
for him hence he lost, 6-1, 8-6.
Michigan passed up a chance to col-
lect two points by winning a first
round match in the doubles when
Kean and Siegel lost to Scherer and
Hurber, of the co-champion Gophers,
6-2, 5-7, 6-0. In the second doubles
match, Appelt and Kahn, playing well
ipto the evening, found themselves
deadlocked with Schapiero and Har-
gesheimer, of Minnesota, at 2-6, 6-1,
when the match was called on ac-
count of poor visibility.
Farrell Trophy
To Be Awarded
Sprint Winner
A trophy, perpetuating the mem-
ory of Steve Farrell, Michigan track
coach who died last year, is to be
awarded annually to the sprinter
winning the 100-yard dash in the
Big Ten outdoor meet.
The trophy, known as "The Steve.
Farrell Memorial Award," will be
given by all University alumni, al-
though the plan is being backed most
actively by those men whom Farrell
coached in his years here.
Howard A. Donnelly, Detroit at-
torney who was a middle distance
runner under Farrell and captain of
the 1916 track team, started the cam-
paign for such an award. The plan
has already been approved by Major
Griffiths, director of Big Ten ath-
letics.
It is planned that the award go
to the University which the winning
runner represents, although plans
may be broadened to include a small-
er individual trophy for the sprinter.
Contributions for the small perma-
nent fund necessary to pay for the
trophy and yearly engraving are be-
ing received in Detroit by Donnelly
and by other Michigan alumni in
cities throughout the country.
Bengals Take
Series Opener
FromYankees
The Detroit Tigers climbed back
into third place in the American
League yesterday when Tommy
Bridges, aided by heavy hitting on the
part of his mates, beat the New York
Yankees, 5-4, in the first of a three-

game series at Navin Field.
Charles Leonard Gehringer, Tiger
second baseman, was largely instru-
mental in the Bengals'. victory, get-
ting three singles and a double in four
official trips to the plate.
Bridges has pitched better losing
ball games than that which he won
yesterday. Thomas was wild against
the Yanks, nor did he prove particu-
larly hard for the men of McCarthy
to hit. They solved his delivery for
10 lusty blows, including a homer
by Frankie Crosetti. Only timely
hitting and intelligent base running
by Doljack, Greenberg, Walker, Geh-
ringer, and Goslin saved the game
for Master Bridges.
With one out in the eighth, the
Yankees filled the bases, but Walker,
batting for Murphy, who had re-
lieved Van Atta on the mound for
New York, bounced a hard ground
ball to Bridges who stumbled, but
recovered in time to throw out Ben
Chapman at the plate. Crosetti
fouled to Greenberg to end the inn-
ing. The Tigers scored what proved
to be the winning run in the fifth
frame when Goose Goslin singled
Frank Doliack, who had doubled,
home before Walker hit into a double
ninv to end the rallv

THE DAY OF HORSE RACING IS OVER, for out of the Golden West
yesterday afternoon came the news via Associated Press that they are
having a jumping frog contest at Sonora, California. They might just as
well start tearing down the stables over in Detroit right now.
Of course it is the sixth annual competition, but the sport has not
taken hold.because they have kept the frog-jumping jubilee well localized
in the vicinity of Angel's Camp, an historic gold-mining camp.
The inspiration for the contests comes from Mark Train's unforgettable
story of the "Juising Frog." Author Clemens, it seems, had a champion
jumper-, an enormious green bullfrog answering if at all, to the name "Daniel
Webster."
Things were going along well in the frog-jumping world for Mark Twain,
and he won a good deal of cash and such negotiable securities as shirts and
other valued properties. But the author made the mistake of betting all he
had on his entry in dual competition with an unknown, unpedigreed opponent
sponsored by a couple of city slickers.
ALL WOULD HAVE BEEN WELL had not the slickers secretly gotten hold
of Daniel Webster and filled him to the esophagus with buckshot. Natur-
ally, Mark Twain's frog couldn't jump with a load of buckshot on board
and the slickers won.
In commemoration of this the frog-jumping jubilee is being held, but it is
on a very very grand scale indeed. There are to be four arenas, and the
various contestants are assigned to a definite arena, in order that the frogs
may accustom themselves to the surroundings and surface of their particular
arena before the actual contest.
Only one minute will be allowed a frog to make up his mind and take the
leap, which is a short span in any league. This naturally places a penalty
upon the sedentary type of bullfrog who is a good husband, stays home
with the wife and tadpoles, and does not go out with the boys to chant
spring songs and annoy the tourists. Consequently, the winner is likely to be
an undesirable member of amphibian society.
Personally, I wonder whether any present-day slicker has thought of the
idea of inflating his own particular entry with helium. Slicking has pro-
gressed with the march of science.

Jane Cissell, co-ed titleholder in
the golf world, will oppose Jean See-
ley in the tournament which will be
played off before Monday. These two
have been conceded the top position
in the 1935 series of matches.
Pairings for the golf tournament
were announced yesterday by Miss
Marie Hartwig, faculty golf sponsor.
From the large group of more than
30 girls who tried out, 18 qualified for
the actual tournament.
Scores will be based on medal play,
and the contestants are to play 18
holes on the University Course by 6
p.m. Monday. These must be at-
tested to by the opponents in each
case, and must be turned in at the
clubhouse at the stated time.
The pairings follow: Peggy Con-
nellan, Eileen McCausey, and Laura I
Zimmerman; Nancy Quirk vs. Marie

Donaldson; Jane Cissell vs. Jean See-,
ley; Betty Merrill vs. Kitty Muller;
Louise Ogens vs. Betty Grebe; Doro-
thy Shappell vs. Margot Goodrich;
Dorothy Schwarze, Jean Hatden,
and Doris Everette; Mary Bursley vs.
Judy Trosper.

siasts representing the University of
Michigan went down in defeat to the
women's Ann Arbor Tennis Club
Wednesday afternoon in matches
played on the Palmer Field Courts.
rhe Michigan team was shut out in
all four of the matches played.
The doubles match was the hard-
est fought and closest in score for
the entire day's play. Miss Hilda
Burr and Mrs. Henry Lewis, playing
for the Ann Arbor club, defeated,

three sets, the last of which went to

final set went to 8-6 before the local
team took the decisive point.

Massman lost to Helen Alexander,
6-1, 6-0. Peggy Griffen defeated Jane
Arnold in a single-set match, 7-5.
Margaret Arnold, playing for the

high school athletics is the annual
Five-A track and field meet to be
held Saturday at Ferry Field. High

Arbor, Lansing Central, Lansing
Eastern, Jackson, and Battle Creek.

the flagpole, followed by the pen-
nants of the five schools in the order
of their finish in the meet last year.
Lansirg Eastern is the defending
champion but Lansing Central and
Ann Arbor are the favored teams.
Lansing Central has beaten both
Eastern and Battle Creek in dual
meets this season. Ann Arbor did
not meet any of the Five-A teams,
but Coach Tim Ryan's charges are
unbeaten in dual competition with
Pontiac, Ferndale, and Monroe.
Eastern has won the title twice,
Ann Arbor and Central once, since
the Five-A league was organized.
