Stuff In Work-out
Yesterday was another off day for
Varsity baseball attendance. About 40
men appeared for work, out of a total
list of 55 plus some few who have not
yet signed their names to the register.
Classes are probably more to blame
than anything else for the temporary
lapse. as most of the candidates are
taking their greatest number of class-
es Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
The practice period coming at the early
part of the afternoon also interferes,
to some extent, with chances for get-
ting out.
Practice yesterday was probably the
snappiest yet held. The men are work-
ing hard and showing more ability per
capita than for several seasons past.
The coach divided the squad into in-
fielders and outfielders during the lat-
ter part of the period and took over
the infielders personaaly, with the re-
sult that all the prospective first, sec-
ond, and third sackers, pitchers and
the two lonely candidates for short
stop received a regular day's work.
The work of most of the men is
showing marked improvement, and
those who are not showing any en-
couraging signs may be unofficially
dropped from time to time in the near
future, although there is nothing au-
thoritative in the statement. Both Lar-
son and Dancer, who are ostensibly
battling for the position at short, are
looking extraordinarily good under
fire from the coach's willow, scooping
most of the hard ones in after the
Honus Wagner school theory. Captain
Brandell worked with the infielders
yesterday and covered the floor In great
style after probably the hardest ones
the coach could deliver without loos-
ening some of the plaster from the

Le Scofield may set the best laid
plans of Coach Farrell all to naught
this week.
Le yesterday was so much off form
that the fastest man among the quar-
ter milers to date may be useless for
the western conference intercollegiates
at Urbana Saturday. A Charleyhorse
has such a grip on the sprinter that
his attempts to get up speed yester-
day were useless.
The failure of Scofield to get back
into shape before the last of the week
may cause Farrell to abandon his
plans in sending a mile relay team,
since Chicago and two other schools
are known to possess fast teams in
this event.

Bateman Claims High-man Title with
Accumulation of 176 points;
Nicholson Second with 169
In a match held in the range of
the Rifle club last week, the Wolverine
sharpshooters turned out a team
total of 836. Bateman was high man
for the Michiganders, puncturing the
target for a 176 count. Nicholson, of
last year's aggregation, pulled in sec-
ond with a tally of 169. The average
for the other three men who repre-
sented Michigan were as follows :
Waterbury, 166; Warren, 165, and Cut-
ting, 160.
The poor showing of the Michigan
aggregation this year is due in large
part to the delay in completion of the
rifle range, as well as to the change
in the rules governing the teams in
