Chicago Brings
Fast Tracksters
Michigan Team Will Be Practically
Same As That Which Beat
Notre Dame
Coach Farrell put his Varsity track-
sters through another stiff session yes-
terday to get his men in the best pos-
sible condition for the Chicago meet
Saturday.
This entry list for the Maroon team
was received and for war times Chi-
cago will be represented by a fast
bunch of men. The result of the meet
will hinge on the way the Wolverine'
runners in the dashes and the longer
distances will be able to show their
heels to the Windy City men. With
this in view Steve has been priming
his sprinters and milers with an ex-
tra amount of work so that no event
will be lost through lack of condition.
Practically the same squad of men
that went to Notre Dame last Satur--
day will be seen in action against the
Maroons. Coach Farrell was pleased
with the work of the men who made,
the trip to South Bend but is still
looking around for athletes to fill in,
in some of the events where men of
ability are lacking to take second .ind
third places.
Phi Beta Kappa Will Elect Soon
Candidates will be chosen for mem-
bership in the Phi beta Kappa hon-
orary fraternity at the elections which
will be held immediately after the
spring vacation. Registrar A. G. Hall'
announced yesterday that there were
500 students who were eligible as can-
didates but that only 10 per cent of
those eligible could be elected. It has
been customary not to elect even the
maximum number in the past. Last
year there were 650 eligible and only
47 were elected as members. The
candidates are those students who
have had an average of B or more.

of the students who entered on dip-
lomas received grades of C or above.
The averages were 53 and 55 per
cent respectively the last two previous
years. Thirty-four per cent of the
schools whose graduates attend the
University show good scholarship.
About 50 per cent of the students
whose records were not clear'received
a single D or E, and in the majority
of these cases the low grade was bal-
anced by higher marks.

the first meeting that 4the club has
held during the month.

University men and women will help
Ann Arbor school children make gar-
dens this spring. Ten people have
already volunteered their services for
the spring months, and more students
are needed.
Work will begin as soon as the
weather permits. The supervisors will
direct the plotting and planting of the
gardens. Most of the work will be
done on Saturday mornings, and it is
planned to have the mid-summer work
done under the direction of the surn-
mer session students.
"The work will be valuable experi-
ence for students, since there will be
great demand for such work when they
go back to their home towns, and they
will be prepared to take the lead,"
said Mrs. E. M. Richar yesterday when
discussing her plans for the coming
season.

Students interested may telephone
Mrs. Richar for information.
