By The Associated Press
DETROIT, March 10-Livingston
E. Osborne, Illinois Conservation Di-

and football players for induction in
the armed forces as though they were

declared "this tirade which is being

At times, Mr. Warren continued,
students have volunteered, but they'
could rarely work when they were
needed. The janitors accomplish the
majority of their chores from 6:30
a. mn. until classes begin, and from
12 to 1 p. m. when students are un-
willing to work. "Student help," he!
said, "is not steady." Another fault
of student help, Edward Pardon, sup-i
erintendent of Buildings and Grounds,
said, is' that students want to do
things on a grand scale, getting ev-
erything done in one day. "We justj
don't have enough equipment to doj
things like that," he added. "For in-
stance, last spring, when the fresh-
men women cleaned the campus, they
recruited 150 co-eds to work one day.
That was fine. But after the leaves
have been raked something must be
done with them. We didn't have eith-
er the trucks or the men to keep up
with the workers."
"Time, too, is a large factor. In
normal times the windows were
washed three times a year during
vacations, but there are no longer
any vacations. The work must

"don't have the feeling that part of

MICHIGAN'S famed team
balance, plus liberal aid
from old Lady Luck, re-
sulted in a one-point Wol-
verine triumph over a
powerful Illinois squad at
the Western Conference in-
door track championships
at Evanston Saturday. The
score was 55 1/10 to
,54 1/10. Although the Il-
lini copped seven of twelve
first places and tied for an
eighth, while Michigan
won only two, some shrend
placing of men by Coach
Ken Doherty in the dis-
tance events brought the
Wolverines the title for
the third successive year.
Again it was the dynamite
Fume twin combination
that spelled victory. Broth-
ers Ross and Bob tied for
first in the mile, and Bob
placed first in the two-mile.
Michigan scored virtual
slams in all three distance
events, racking up 31
points in those alone. The
rest of the Wolverine
points were widely scat-
tered throughout the re-
ern Conference swimming
championship, beating out
Ohio State, the number

ana was third with 19.1

both relays, the Wolverines

Mert Church was Michi
gan's only double winner,
and one of two in the meet,
as he won the 50 and 100-
yard freestyle events. Keo
Nakama, Ohio State dis-
tance star, took the 220
and 440 as expected.
