Ohio State and Iowa both have strong teams and either may prove a dark horse in the championship race. Illinois has won more Conference baseball championships than all the rest of the Big Ten colleges put to- gether. The Urbana school is always well represented on the diamond, and this year promises to be no ex- ception. Coach George Huff has the best pitcher in the Conference in the person of J. L. Klein. He also has a couple more first class moundsmen, so that his team should never be without reliable pitching. As pitching has proved the biggest factor in col- lege baseball, this should be a tre- mendous advantage to the Illinois ag- gregation. A training trip consist- ing of eight games was taken by the Illinois squad before the opening of the Conference season, thus getting all the men in good condition for the Big Ten contests. Miehi'an Looks Strong Although Michigan has not played in the Conference for many seasons, critics believe she will make a strong bid for the title this year. Baseball has always been a big sport here at Ann Arbor, and Coach Lundgren has been responsible for many ex- cellent teams. This spring the Wolve- rines have two strong pitchers, Glenn and Ruzicka. The infielders handle their positions well and together with the outfielders make up a heavy hit- ting outfit. Ohio State has a well-balanced team, although it is largely composed of green material. The Columbus school won the Conference baseball cham- pionship last year and are hoping to repeat again this season, but criticsj believe their chances are small. Iowa with seven letter men back is report- ed to have a powerful nine, but they have yet to test their mettle against the stronger Big Ten teams. Wiscon- sin is well supplied with pitchers, but in other respects is rather weak. However, they, may spring a surprise and prove a contender for the title. Chicago Has Chance MORE ENTRIES IN FOR BIG6 INTER-CLASS MEET. DOPE SEEMS TO PICK CLASS OF 1920 TO WIN GAMES Entries are coming in at a faster rate for the inter-class meet, to be be held next Saturday.

E. -1010 3 - 1 2 5 Beardsley and Johnson took a turn' at the hurdles in yesterday's practice both clearing the obstacles in fine style. The grenade throwers are improv- ing in the accuracy of their hurling. Bill Knapp, broad jumper, made the best mark in throwing made so far since the new event was introduced. In three trials at each of the targets, Knapp made a total score of 22. Haigh, Lindstrom, and Goodsell, have been showing promising form in throwing, and should with more prac- ticd, be point getters for Steve's team. Johnson Will Be Star Doping out the probable winners in Saturday's meet is difficult in some of the events. Johnson is sure to take first honors in the 200 yard low hurdles, the 120 yard high hurdles, and the broad jump, although Beards- ley will push him closely in the hurdl- es, and Knapp will give him a hard struggle in the broad jump. If John- son enters the 100 yard dash, it is likely that he will cop that contest, too. Cook, another sophomore on Coach Farrell's Varsity, ought to take the 220 yard dash, but he will be giv- en some stiff competition by Bulger and several yearlings who have been showing up well. Cross in the pole vault, is the prob- able winner in the pole vault, but if Slaughter, a 1921 man, shows-some of the form he displayed indoors, he ought to take the honors away from the Varsity vaulter, The frosh clear- ed the bar at 12 feet during one of the practice sessions in Waterman gym- nasium last winter.

Northwestern and Minnesota have been forced to give up varsity baseball for this year at least, while at Chicago, Indiana and Purdue there are practi- cally none of last year's men back. The outlook at Chicago, however, has brightened considerably since the be- ginning of the season. With a victory over Michigan to their credit the Ma- roons are doing far better than was at first expected, and if they keep up their present stride they may yet figure in the championship race. FARRELL TO HAVE SOLDIER BOMBMEN Now that grenade throwing has been added to the list of standard field events for the Conference outdoor track meet, to be held on Stagg field June 8, Coach Farrell is beginning to develop material for this event. Doctor May is also much interested in the new event, as he intends 'that the military companies shall devote considerable time to it during their regular time for athletic drill. Rules Simple The rules are very simple-accur- acy and distance are the essential re- quirements as long as the thrower hurls the missle in the proper way. There are three targets at distances of 75, 1A0 and 125 feet, respectively. Each target consists of a bulls-eye with five circles around-it. The circles vary in size, the nearer target having the smaller circles around it. The throws are :made from a pit six inches deep, four feet broad and three feet long. Each contestant is allowed three throws at each target, the inner circle counting five the next to the center four and so on. Targets Laid Out Doctor May has already laid out the targets and the pit from which the throws are made. He intends to start work on this event as soon as pos- sible. A meeting will be held on Fer- ry field Saturday morning at 10:30 o'clock, of men weighing 175. and over and who are at least five feet nine inches tall and who are interested. Any R. O. T. C. man- who shows up well in this event will be taken over to the Varsity track squad immediate- ly. as Coach Farrell is very anxious There's Clothes in the FITFO) The only wise way to measure ecc omy in clothes is by the time you a to average service, and by the satisfi tion you get out of the clothes; not the dollar or so you may think you saving at the start. com- FITFORM ily woven, fine grade of canvas. >f the highest grade throughout. e best in sport shoes for all wear.
