While Larson Seeks To!
Revenge Indian Defeat
With the remote possibility for a
share in the Big Ten, title, hinging
upon the improbability that the first-
place University of Chicago nine will
drop two of its remaining three games,
Michigan's baseball team will meet
the ninth-place Boilermakers at La-
fayette this afternoon and continue
to Champaign for a return engage-,
ment with Illinois tomorrow.
Although the Wolverines can't drop
another of their five remaining games
and still retain even a "remote possi-
bility" they are priming themselves
for the Illinois game tomorrow rather
than that with the downtrodden nine
of Coach Lambert, which has already
been defeated six times by Big Ten
teams.
Illini Are Rivals
Because Illinois and Michigan have
been intense rivals in baseball for 43
years, Coach Ray Fisher and his Wol-
verines would rather beat Illinois than
any other team on the schedule. Mich-
igan sentiment, as expressed by the
Michigan nine is "if we can't win the
title, we don't care who does win,
as long as Illinois doesn't."
Michigan can definitely deliver the
knockout blow to Illinois' champion-
ship hopes by defeating the Illini, as
it will place the Suckers a full game
behind Chicago, and throw them into
a three-way tie for second place with
Michigan and Ohio State.I
Patchin Against Purdue
Art Patchin will pitch against Pur-
due today, being opposed by Bob El-
rod or Lefty Martin. Michigan's line-
up will remain intact except for right
field, where Coach Fisher will choose
between Harry Verbeek, Vic Heyliger
and Joe Lerner, with Verbeek given
the edge due to his timely hitting
against Michigan Normal Wednesday.
In the event that Purdue uses a right-
hander, Fisher indicated. that he
might switch his choice to Lerner, a
portside batter.
Despite its unimposing record, Pur-
due has been the only team to beat
Chicago, holding a 3-1 win over the
Maroons in the second game of a
doubleheader, two weeks ago.
Hale Swanson, Illinois' sensational
pitcher and Berger Larson will con-
tinue their hurling feud tomorrow,
where they left off May 4, when Swan-
son took a 1-0 decision from Berger,'
on a fluke hit in the sixth inning.
Both pitchers have maintained the
pace they set against each other,
since their last meeting, and tomor-1
row's contest should provide little
hitting by either team, with the ver-
dict going to the lucky nine.

23 Picked To Compete In
Last Dual Conference
Meet; Ward May Run
Michigan's track team will leave
this afternoon to meet Illinois Satur-
day in the Wolverines' last dual meet
before the Conference meet here next
week. Coach Charlie Hoyt has
named a squad of 23 for the trip to
Champaign, including Willis Ward,
who may enter competition for the
first time since the Penn Relays April
26.
The Wolverines expect to encounter,
little trouble from a relatively weak
Indian team, making no effort to
hide the fact that they are all point-
ing for the Big Ten meeting. Illinois
has won from Purdue and lost to In-
diana in dual competition.

Rodriguez' Injury May
Bench Him For Season
Johnny Rodriguez, Varsity ten-
nis player, will be out of service
for the next few: days, taking care
of an injured foot. The Porto Ric-
an netter has been suffering with
it for some time, butCoach John-
stone only heard of it yesterday.
A rest of three or four days has
been prescribed, with the result
that unless he is able to practice
for the Conference tournament in
Chicago next week-end, Rodriguez'
playing this season is at an end.

Because of the large number of

CAPT. IRV. SEELY
One of the sidelights of the Illinois-
Michigan dual meet at Champaign
tomorrow will be the meeting of Dave
Hunn of Michigan, and Captain Irv
Seely of Illinois.
Hunn will be out to "discourage"
Seely for the Big Ten meet here next
week, the Indian leader being a con-
tender by virtue of his win in the Big
Ten indoor meet.
The Wolverine vaulter who is the
best in the school's history has an
especial reason to win the event in
the Conference meet as it is one of
the fivedevents which Wolverinehen-
tries under Coach Charlie Hoyt have
not captured in Big Ten meets.
