"Skip" tchells in the discus; Adam!
Stone in the javelin; and Paul Gor-
man, in the half-mile.
The sophomores, considered the
strongest ever to represent Michigan,
include Stan Birleson in the quarter-
mile and relay, Sam Stoller in the
two dash events, Bob Osgood in the
two hurdles and the mile relay, Fred
Stiles in the 220 and possibly on the
relay ,team, Clayton Brelsford in the
mile and half-mile, and Howard Da-
vidson in the half mile.
Is Second California Trip
The other sophomores are Harry
O'Connell in the mile, Walter Stone
in the two-mile, and Frank Aikens,
quarter-mile and possibly the relay.
The trip is the second taken by a
Michigan track team to California,
the 1921 squad having been defeated,
95-43.
The meet, between teams consid-
ered representative of the Middle West
and West Coast, is expected to be one
of the feature events of the season.
The Wolverines, after sweeping the
indoor season, have had less than a
week of outdoor practice as against
outdoor work for the Bears which
has included four meets.
Michigan, with balance as well as
power in every event, is conceded a
likely chance of winning from the
powerful California team despite the
handicaps of training conditions.
Hope To Split Bear Strength
The Wolverines will hope to split
the California strength in the short
track events, collect some points in
the weight events, and pile up points
in the middle-distance and distance
runs.
The squad will leave Ann Arbor
Friday, arriving in Los Angeles April
8, where it will practice on the field
of U.C.L.A. until Wednesday, moving
on to Berkeley Thursday. The team
will leave Berkeley Saturday or Sun-
day following the meet.
Accompanying the squad will be
Coach Hoyt, Bill Morgan, manager,
Steve Brosovich, trainer, Fielding H.+
Yost, director of athletics, Prof. Ralph
Aigler, chairman of the board in con-
trol of physical education, T. Hawley
Tapping, secretary of the alumni as-
sociation, Miss Norma Bentley, secre-
tary, Mrs. Hoyt, and Mrs. Harvey
Smith, mother of the Michigan cap-
tain.
NAVY RIFLEMEN WIN

baser to right.
Coach Ray Fisher designated the
batting order yesterday, and the boy,
will observe the same lineup when
they open the season against Marshall
College at Huntington, W. Va., next
Friday. George Ford is the lead-ofi
man, followed by Joe Lerner, Georgc
Rudness, Clayt Paulson, John Re-
geczi, Russ Oliver, Jack Teitelbaum
Kim Williams and the pitcher.
Varying from the usual procedure
of batting the best hitter third in
the batting order, Coach Fisher
inserted his weakest hitter, Rudness
there.
However, Fisher has a good rea-
son for the move. Rudness is the
fastest man on the squad in gettin?
down to first base, and although he
hasn't started to hit yet, he's beer
on base morebtimes than most of hie
teammates, because of his ability to
beat out ground balls.
Figuring that Rudness, Lerner and
Ford, another speed merchant, will
be on base often, Fisher will have hi,
heavy artillery following to clean the
sacks.
