BRI

New York, May 18. - To win the
war the United States is determined
. to set no restrictions on the number
of men to be sent to France, President
L Wilson declared here tonight in a
speech re-affirmingrthe purpose of
America to set no limit on its efforts.
NTY0 As many men will go overseas as
ships can be found to carry them, the
president said, after referring to
statements having been made that
5,000,000 should go.
TAR The United States, he said, would
not be diverted by insincere talk of
sented peace from the Teutonic powers.
of Their proposals, he declared, spring
from 'a desire to have a free hand in
the East.
"I intend to stand by Russia as well
,esxas France," he said.
annual Liberal giving to the Red Cross, the
"Car- president said, is every man's duty.
audi- One of the damning things against the
dience Germans, he said, is that they have
ion innot respected the Red Cross.
Referring to Russia the president
Signor said:
favor- "The helpless and unfriendly are
Shar- the very ones that need friends and
closely succor; and if any man in Germany
dits. thinks we are going to sacrifice any-;
adame body for our own sake, I tell them
n h-r now they are mistaken."

EQUALS REC-

as vocal Michigan's track team won a rather
er regis- easy victory over Notre Dame yester-1
i vibrant day, 86 1-2 to 48 1-2. Coach Farrell's
men took the lead in the first event of

illo. His shot put and discus, seconds in both
Toreador hurdles, and 220 yard dash, and a
s out all third in the high jump, Johnson did
Spanish not take part in the high jump, as the
Wolverines had the meet safe in hand

May Fes- successor, a few yards behind. The
two athletes kept this position until
the last hundred yards, when Buell
made a hard try to take the lead, but
the Notre Dame runner sprinted, and
finished a few inches ahead of the
CROSS Wolverine. Call also forced Captain
Donnelly into second place by his good
work in the mile.

moacher finally broke their tie, Cross'

Ruzicka saved the day for Michigan
by stepping in the box, when everyone
thought that he would be unable to
pitch for several days, and holding
the Iowans to two hits and no runs,
while Michigan managed to score
twice in spite of the excellent work of
Hamilton.
The Iowa city men showed excellent
sportsmanship by allowing Glenn and
Langenhan to run for Ruzicka, when
the husky sophomore managed to
reach first through an error by Lay-
ton, and again when Hamilton could
not find the-plate. Glenn, running for
Ruzy the first time, brought the first
run across, when Knode sacrificed,
Cooper singled, and Mraz reached first
on a error by Kremer. Cooper, who
was on second at the time, was caught
at the plate when trying to score on
the same play.
Morrison Triples
The other run for Michigan came in
the eight, when Ohlmacher singled,
but was thrown out at second 'vhen
Shorty Mraz tried to sacrifice, the lit-]
tle third baseman reaching first in
safety. A moment later after Gene-
bach had struck out, Morrison tripled
down the right field foul line. Had,
Smalley been a faster man, he could
have stretched the hit into a homer,
for the ball rolled nearly to the tennis
courts outside of the foul line.
Several chances to score were
thrown away by the Wolverines by the
lack of head work, either by the
coachers, or the runners themselves.
In the sixth Genebach doubled, and
reached third on Morrison's sacrifice
but Garrett and Adams both fell prey
of the prowess of the famed Hamilton.
Ruzicka Displays Nerve
Ruzicka's injury did -not effect his
box work in the least. The nervy sec-
ond year hurler tried to conceal his
limping, but otherwise, it would have
been impossible to tell that he had
anything wrong with him. In addi-
tion to striking out 12, Ed went after
two pop up flies and gathered them in
safely. The Corn state batters got
two singles in succession in the third
but, these were the only two times
they were able to connect.
Garrett and Knode were both re-
sponsible for turning a couple of pro-
mising bingles into putouts, Ken going
behind second, and picking up a
grounder that the visitors were betting
on for a single.
In addition to the double and triple
Mraz, Cooper and Ohlmacher each
singled. The rest of the Wolverine
clan+ that reached bases, did not get
there through their ability to handle
the bat.
Hawkeyes Threaten to Score
Iowa threatened in the second and
again in the seventh,, but Ruzy spoil-
their hopes by the strikeout method.
In the second, Hamilton walked, and
went second when Olson hit to Gar-
ret, and Tomriny threw badly. The
next man up, Parrett, bunted to Ruz-

May 18. - The Germans attempted
a vigorous silent raid on one of the
American combat groups within a
strong point within the Luneville sec-
tor, but were badly beaten. The raid
was ay complete failure and cost the
enemy considerable losses. None of
the Americans are missing. The fight
was carried on with hand grenades,:
rifles and revolvers, and it was vir-
tually hand to hand. The Germans
beat a hasty-retreat after 10 minutes
carrying virtually all their dead and
wounded with them.

by the Austrians to re-capture Monte
Corno has failed according to the of-

headquarters today.

Berlin, via London, May 18. - Great
reconnoitering activity along the
western battle front has led to violent
hand to hand fighting, especially in
the district of Lassigny, according to
the official statement issued by the
war office today, which says that on
Friday, May 17, Allied airplanes and
one captive balloon were shot down
by the Germans.

Germans to Renew Offensive
Nearly three weeks have passed
since the German offensive began on
March 21, died down -at its final ac-
tive point in futile assaults on the
Flanders front. Every indication,
however, points to the probability
that the coming week will witness its
renewal.
The Entente Allied staff appear con-
vinced that the enemy has about com-
pleted his re-organization and is only
waiting weather suitable to his pur-
poses to strike his new blow.
Irish 'QIestion
German public opinon is being pre-
pared by Chancellor Von Hertling and
others for the imminence of renewed
fighting.
In Great Britain the Irish question
looms larger again with the announc-
ed discovery of a "treasonable con-
spiracy with the German enemy" on
the part of certain Irishmen, and the
making of hundreds of arrests in Ire-
land. The prisoners taken into cus-
tody, were mostly members of the Sinn
Fein organization.

By winning all of the underclass
games held this morning on Ferry
field, the freshmen returned victorious
in the spring games by a' score of 4
to 2 after having been defeated by the
sophomores yesterday in the majortly
of the tug-o'-war contests.
All of the games were hotly con-
tested and, with the exception of the
rope contest, which was easy for 'the
first year men by reason of their over-
whelming numbers, the freshmen took
them only after a hard struggle.
In the obstacle races, the yearlings,'
after losing the first race, staged a
remarkable "come back" and took the
next two, receiving one point toward
the entire total of six points for the
spring games for doing so.
Cane Spree
Nineteen men paired up in the cane
spree and at the end of 15 minutes,
the two classes were tied for victory,
with seven canes in the sophomores'
possession and seven owned by the
freshmen. The contest was allowed
to go on five minutes longer, during
which time the first year men wrested
away four canes while the second year
men could get only two.
Rope Contest
The rope contest went to the fresh-
men easily. When the classes lined
up for the contest, the number of men
was about three to one in favor of the
class of '21. After the contest had
been stopped, 173 freshmen were on
the rope, while only 58 '20 men had
succeeded in maintaining themselves
there. This was largely due to a
squadron of sophomores that appeared
from behind the grandstand where
they had concealed themselves during
the first part of the contest and charg-
ed one end of the rope, placing several
men along it, but being stopped by the
mass of freshmen before they could
proceed very far.
Several hundred spectators were
lined alone the edge of the contest
