IIIUIhd ULIIVI U RECORD HEIGHT Vie Crosses Bar at 742 Inches Brushes Cross-Piece on Way Down But CL1I)ER PATH RESPONSIBLE FOR POOR SHOWING OF OTHERS Mile Relay Team Performs Creditably; Dismond of Chicago, Is Too Much for Scofield Steve Farrell came back from the Illinois meet almost totally lacking in voice, but bringing with him the news that Vic Simmons came very close to climbing over 6 feet 212 inches. The silence is due to a bad cold, which the Wolverine coach picked up in the Illinois climate, and the sub- jection to various kinds of sleeping quarters during the past few days. Makes Record Leap The coach relates the latter by stating that on his third trial at the 74/ inch height Vic got over the bar in- fine shape, but that as he was coming down, the newest Varsity sen- sation brushed the cross-piece suf- ficiently to cause it to fall. This cost Simmons a clear first place, and kept Vic from establishing the highest mark a Wolverine jumper ever set. Vic made the mark from a cinder jumping pit, the same as is used on Ferry field. A cinder track was also used in the 75-yard dash, and this may have had something to do with O'Brien's failure to place-something totally unexpect- ed here. Obie was beaten out in the semi- finals by Mulligan of Nptre Dame and Hoyt of Grinnell. The former was easy for Obie on Waterman gym's board rupning lane, but the latter iq one of the world's fastest men in the 220. Neither one got a place in the finals, however. The mile relay team performed very well in taking second place to Chicago. All four of the men made good time in the strange quarters. Scofield did not fall down in the last relay as might be inferred from the returns, but was simply up against probably the best quarter miler in the country. Dismond, with a five yard handicap at the start, ate that up with ease, and finished nearly 15 yards in the lead. Michigan Cheered Michigan was accorded an enthusi- astic reception during the entire stay of the team in Champaign. Talk around the Illinois campus was largely con- cerning the Wolverine team, and much favorable conversation was continual- ly heard regarding Michigan's propos- ed return to the western conference., The Wolverine track men were the first to put in an appearance upon the floor of the gym before the meet and were accompanied by loud cheers upon their appearance. isl r"s Batting Them Out Again George Sis er appcar among the candidates for a Michigan Varsity baseball team this season after an ab- sence of a year-in name. The ex- captain's name is being used on a bat manufactured by a Plymouth, New Hampshire, concern and several of these clubs, have made their appear- ance among the members of the squad this season. This is probably one of the few in- stances of a diamond star's name be- ing used on a club the first year that man has played in the major leagues. It will be remembered how George was accustomed to pole out those long drives on Ferry field, and if there is anything in a name its potency should be doubled when used on a bat wield- ed by a member of a Michigan base- ball team. FRESH TRACSTERS TO MEET DETROIT YM.N.A E1)10'i RITER'iS UNKNOWN QUANT- ITY; YEARLINGS EXPECT I ASY VICTORY Graduation Hits Minnesota Eleven Minneapolis, Minn., March 5.-Min- nesota's wonderful football team of 1916 has been practically swept away and Dr. Williams, the coach, will be forced to build an almost entirely new team next fall. Bert Baston, All-Am- 'rican end, Townley, star center, and Mayer, All-Western tackle, are lost to the line by graduation. Buckley, guard, hts left school and Hanson, second center, has been counted out by the thlee-year limit. lHardwig and Wilson, substitute linemen who won their M's wil also graduate in June. Behind the line, the casualties have not been so heavy, Harold Hanson be- ing the only regular back who will not be among those present when the first whistle blows next September. The dashing halfback has left school to be married. Ballentine, substitute, will be barred by the three-year rule. and Weiss and Johnson will receive their degrees. The material coming up from the freshmen is unpromising. However, Copherdom has not entirely lost hope, for any aggregation with Long, Wy- man, and Sprafka cavorting behind the line is not to be regarded as a bed of gridiron roses. Dr. Williams has issued the follow- ing statment to the Minnesota Daily, the student newspaper: "Minnesota must have more mater~ ial. 'When it is considered that Michi- gan, in all probability, is about to re- turn to the conference, the need of a large and more powerful squad at Minnesota is even more apparent." SOPHS BATTLE FROSH IN FIRST GAMES OF WOMEN'S TOURNEY Junior and Senior Substitutes to Play Curtain-Raiser at 4 o'Clock The first big interclass game of the women's basketball season is sched- uled for 5 o'clock tomorrow afternoon when the freshman and sophomore sextettes fight for the underclass championship. The sophs have hitherto been lined up in opposition with the juniors while the green-button girls have been practicing with the seniors, so there is little or no dope on the com- parative showing of the teams of 1919 and 1920. The junior and senior substitute teams will play at 4 o'clock as a cur- tain-raiser to the big scrap. From the number of women out to watch prac- tice during the past few weeks, a good crowd is expected.

William St. 5tf COACH PROMISES CUT THIS WEEKI Lundgren Is Noncommittal In Regard to the Proportions the Prun- ig Will Assume BILLY NIE3ANN SUSTAINS FIRST INJURY OF SEASON Southern Trip Schedule Will Probably Be Announced After Meeting Late This Week Coach Lundgren promises an addi- tional cut in the squad this week. The coach stated that the weeding out pro- cess would come about the middle of the week but was uncommunicative as to the extent of the slicing. Cut Last Saturday Evidently the pruning last Satur- day was merely a starter on the diffi- cult job of thinning down the squad to a more workable size. The men have been working out long enough now for the coach to get a good line on all the candidates and their respec- tive ability, and the chances are that the promised cut will be a rather im- portant one, and of fair proportions. Practice yesterday was not so well attended. Monday is a bad day on account of classes. The period was marked by one casualty in the ranks of the outfield, when Billy Niemann took a hard fall, dislocating a t,. The tumble will probably cause lis absence from practice for several days. Nets Not Here The new nets are still on the road and should arrive any day, but thus far the caravan has not been sighted. The nets would add quite a, bit in the way of infield practice and with the southern trip looming up nearer every week such work will soon become nec- essary. The schedule for the southern trip has not been officially announced by the Athletic office authorities, but is expected to come out in the near *fu- ture, possibly this week. There is an executive committee meeting sometime during the course of the week, and it is probable that the schedule will be ratified at that session. In regard to the last cut made, the men who were not signed up on the Varsity register prior to that cut are still considered on the squad until ac- tually eliminated. Golfers Will Meet Tomorrow Night Michigan's golfers will hold their first meeting at 7:15 o'clock tomorrow night, in the Athletic association of- fices, according to an announcement by E. B. Palmer. All Michigan students who are con- templating playing golf this season are urged to put in an appearance so £ that plans can lie laid accordingly. Playing rights can only be granted to a limited number and the golf author- ities state that they will work on the plan of "first come, first served." Numerals will be awarded in the campus championship.

The Detroiters are a hard team to dope out, for men are constantly com- ing and going; but they will have to trayel a terrific pace to lower the yeakrlings' colors. The latter have been working hard since the set-to with the Toledo boys and should give an even better account of themselves than at that affair.

Along and steady pull wins in the end, and this comes from the right food combined with rational exercise. The right food is Shredded Wheat -the favorite food of men who do things in the class- room and on the athletic field. It contains all the muscle-building, brain-making material in the whole wheat grain made digestible by steam-cooking, shred- ding and baking. It puts gimp and ginger into the tired brain and worn-out body. It is on the training table of nearly every college and university in the United States and Canada. Some of the most promi- nint coaches in foot-ball, and other forms of athletic games have given it preference over all other foods. Made only by The Shredded Wheat Company, Niagara Falls, N. Y.
