DESERTES REWARD Iti stered by arkened w is in- lws .. Following the performance of the 'e West Point captain who showed re- et markable bravery in No Man's Land as recently, and captured a few Germans single handed, it has been rumored - that the Germans themselves are look- ou ing for the persons wh'o spread rum- the ors about kaiserland that "those st Yankees couldn't fight." the- mch The Germans have perhaps sub- itor dued Russia.

E STAR TRACK AGGREGATION WIN- NING HIGH CONFERENCE PLACE STANDS UNRECOGNIZED Editor, The Michigan Daily: Shortly before Christmas "Steve" Farrell issued a call to all men in the University interested in track ath- letics to appear at Waterman gym- nasium. Since the call's issuance Coach Far- rell, with less than a dozen men, jour- neyed to Urbana where the track team won first place, and a Michigan man won the greatest number. of points. This carnival is considered the sec- ond biggest indoor track event staged by Conference schools. One would hardly think it, from the amount of space given the event in The Daily prior to the announcement of victory. Many students didn't know until last Wednesday morning that Michigan was to take part in so important a meet. Three big schools and many small ones entered, held "pep" meet- ings -the night before theiroteams de- parted. Last year special wires con- nected the larger cities of the west, and the events and winners in each, were announced as they occurred. Isn't it a handicap to Michigan stu- dents and their spirit when something in the way of "dope" is not given them in advance? Many Conference events are iinfa- miliar to Michigan students. It should be 'the duty of The Daily to throw light on them. The real importance does not rest with the relay carnival but with the track team. 'I[ venture to say that not more than a dozen stor- ies have appeared in The Daily since Farrell issued his first track call. For since Farrell issued his first call. For weeks a score of men have been train- ing and have reached the point where they can whip any track team in the. Conference, yet not much of this has come to the student body through The Daily, If The Daily won't give- track .atheltics.at Michigan any space how can we expect outside papers'to do so? If Illinois, Chicago, Northwestern, or Minnesota had a track team equal to Michigan's, one can't imagine a day going by that some Chicago or Detroit paper would not contain an account of the team's progress. If it is a matter of space with The Daily wouldn't it be better to keep out some of the personal slander that1 FIRST CALL FOR SPRING GARDENERS There will soon be a 'demand for students to help with the spring gard- ening. The Employment Office de- sires to furnish the best available stu- dent help for this work, but this can- not be done unless there is a close co- operation between the employers and the Employment Office. The Employment Secretary should be promptly notified of any cases of overcharging, unsatisfactory work, or failures to appear. Only in this way can we determine which students give Remember, too, that we cannot se- lect good student help on ten minutes notice. Put in your call the day be- fore.

We like to be bothered. has appeared about our athletes, and devote this space to giving the track team what is due it? Perhaps there is not a state in which Mich-igan fans do not scan sport pages for something about Michigan's athletics. Here we have an excellent team shoved into the background to make room for some local event hav- ing no interest to people outside of Ann Arbor. In talking to a Chicago sports edi- tor, he stated that space was open, but he must rely on student publica- tions for material. Many stories ap- pearing in papers, about other schools' athletics can be traced directly to student papers. If the track team were weak or of little interest some excuse might be offered, but with a team stronger than that of any other Conference school, and one! capable of winning the west- ern championship this year an in- justice is being done to both the school and public when it is slighted. When Michigan has a track team ranking as high in its-branch as did Ohio State's football team, led by a -man as high in his work as Yost in his, isn't is time to give it space in The Michigan Daily?
