I-MSports
Fraternity teams are now heading
for the home stretch in their drive
for the all-around intramural athletic
championship. With baseball, track,
tennis, horseshoes, and Sigma Delta
Psi, honorary athletic fraternity, still
remaining on the schedule, the race
for top honors appears wide open.
At the present, Psi Upsilon is in
the lead with 714 points, with Theta
Chi but a single point behind. How-
ever, these two teams have not by
any means narrowed the race to a
two-way affair. Pi Lambda Phi,
last year's runner-up is close behind
the leaders with 673 points, while
Alpha Omega, champions in 1935, are
nestled in fifth place with a 620 total.

Jesse Owens, Ohio State's ebony
Antelope, running in his first meet
of the year after a spell of ineligi-
bility, came back to win the 50-
yard dash, 60-yard low hurdles, and
bread-jump events last night in
the Butler Relays at Indianapolis.I
Owens' three firsts brought the
Buckeyes to within one and one-
third points of upsetting the Mich-
igan track team, ultimate winner.

Faced with the complete loss oft
last year's infield, Coach Ray Fishert
will have to develop an entiirely new
combination to man the inner garden
before the baseball squad departs on
its spring training trip, April 10.
The Wolverine mentor is especially
troubled right now with finding a pair1
capable of handling the important
keystone positions, shortstop and sec-'
ond. The loss through ineligibilityt
of Harry Verbeek, reserve second
baseman last season, incrbases
Fisher's problem considerably.I
Uricek May Be Shortstopt
At present Fisher contemplates
moving Steve Uricek, promising soph-
omore candidate, over to the short
field. Uricek is a third baseman by
choice and occupied the hot corner
as a freshman last year. He is a
smooth and capable fielder, and
Fisher believes he will fill the short-
stop gap efficiently. However, Steve
is bothered with a sore arm, which
the Wolverine coach is confident will
heal all right with a little more work.
Mike Miller is another fine tryout
with a good arm.
The second base position is wide
open, with Don Brewer, George Bolas
and Stephen Fowdy leading the other
candidates for the job. Brewer lacks
experience, but shows promise in the
field, although he is woefully weak
at bat. Bolas is handicapped with
a bad knee, an injury sustained in
football.' Fowdy seems to be a good
prospect.
Fisher favors Carl Ferner for the
third base job. Ferner was a reserve
last year and appears ready for reg-
ular service this season, unless some-
one suddenly bobs up who can prove
the better man.
Lerner At First
Joe Lerner, veteran outfielder, is
the likely choice for the first base
post. Matt Patanelli, the football
captain, is another aspirant for the
initial sack, but his inexperience will
work against him. Lerner alternated
f at first two seasons ago, and knows
how to handle himself around the bag.
Fisher will not get a definite line
fIon this material until the squad goes
outside, because the Fieldhouse floor
is too soft and rough to permit infield
practice. Meanwhile, the Wolverines
- are sharpening their batting eyes,
preparatory to their going outside
where the final bid for positions will
1 be made.

The dead-line for entries for spring
sports has been extended to Tuesday,
March 24. Entree blanks should be
sent in to the Intramural Sports
Building.
Among'the five students still in the
running for the All-Campus bowling
title are Clarence Markham, last
year's champion, and Dave Falk, 1935
runner-up. These two will face each
other in the lower bracket semi-finals,
providing Markham first disposes 'of
Lou Goldman.
In the upper bracket, Don May and
Bob Glick are to meet for the right
to enter the finals. On the basis of
comparative scores, Falk rules fa-
vorite to dethrone Markham. His
tournament scores, among them a
657 and a 648, have thus far been
much more impressive than the
champion's. The finals are to be

Japan Expects To
Stage'40 Olympics
The Japanese people confidently
expect the 1940 Olympic games will
be held in Tokio and they are al-
ready making plans for staging the
famous event, K. H. Kuwashima,
goodwill ambassador for the Tokio
municipality, said at Seattle recently.
Japan hopes to stage the Olympics
in conjunction with Japan's Interna-
tional Exposition to be held in Tokio
and Yokohama in 1940, commemorat-
ing completion of 2,600 years of reign
under the Japanese Imperial govern-
ment.
Fifty million yen have been raised
for the mammoth exposition, which
is expected to attract between 20 and
30 million spectators. It will open
March 15, 1940, and close at the end
of November the same year. The fair
will fall in Japan's spring and sum-
mer months, known by the Japanese
as "the flowering season."
The Olympic games would be
staged in a stadium with a seating
capacity of 50,000 persons, Kuwash-
ima said. Swimming events would
take place in one of the finest pools
in the world. The natatorium would
seat 10,000.
