Easy (Special to The Michigan Daily) Ithaca, N. Y., March 9.-The out- come of the present baseball season at Cornell seems at present to rest,' in the main, upon one thing-the de- PECT QUARTER-MILE EVENT TO SEE WARM COMPETITION .ch Farrell Has Four 1920 Men Who Have Shown Exceptional Abil- ity Over 440 Route Michigan will have another oppor- tunity to watch its freshman track team in action when it meets the De- troit Y. M. C. A. aggregation tonight in Waterman gymnasium. All indications at the present writ- ing seem to point to a yearling vic- tory, although the association boys may spring a surprise. The young- sters are well-fortified in every event, boasting excellent sprinters and hurd- lers, strong men in the field numbers, and exceptionally fast men in the mid- dIe distance runs. The only firsts which the Detroiters seem to have a chance of landing are the mile and the pole vault, with a bare possibility of a win in the high jump. Several Freshman Stars Cagney and Johnson, the yearling dashmen, have been doing the 60-yard sprint in 5 3-5 seconds, which is about as fast as they make 'em indoors. The lanky freshman leader looks due for a walk-away in both the low and high hurdles, with Froemke pressing him rather closely in the former. In the high jump, Johnson should place well up, if he is not too tired by that time. Later, the men who took the jump 'against Toledo, and Watkins, the city of the straits leaper, will make strong bids for the laurels in this event. The quarter-mile, which proved such a hair-raiser in the tussle with the Toledoans, should prove even more to the Dick Merriwells tonight, for be- sides Butler, Forbes, and Hunt, the three men who finIshed so close to- gether in the late unpleasantness, there will be two more lads entered who are said- to be some steppers at the 440-yard distance themselves. These boys are Lombard of Buffalo and Cuthbert, former Ann Arbor high school star. Schuster and Stoll may be depended upon to furnish a good battle in the half mile, for these two men are ex- tremely closely matched. They ran al- mosti a dead heat at the last meet. Batty and Read, in the mile, should give McDonald a strong stern chase but it is doubtful whether they can take the measure of the hustling De- troiter. velopment of a dependable battery. With Sutterby and Russell, both first string hturlers last year, lost by gradu- ation, and with Clary, varsity back- stop in 19;16, unable to play because or a faculty ruling, Dr. Sharpe has for his main problem the uncovering of a pitcher and catcher who can hold the epposing team. Indoor practice began in Bacon practice hall (the baseball cage) on Feb. 19, with the opening of the sec- ond, term. For three days, pitchers only were calle4, but the entire squad, at first of about 80 men, now of about 50, has been at work ever since. Out- door practice on Percy field will be commenced as soon as the weather permits. Six Regulars Back Exclusive of the pitcher and catcher question, the squad is in good shape. Six ^f last year's varsity regulars are back, including Budd, right field; O'Connell, center field; Valentine, left field; Mellen, third base; Eckley, short stop, and Sauters, second base. By this it may be seen that the entire outfield remains intact, and only one hole, first base, is left to fill in the infield. It is improbable, however, that last year's veterans will in all cases be re- tained in their original positions. Val- entine, who played left field, has shown ability as a twirler, and will in all probability be shifted to the box. At present, in the daily practices in the baseball cage, Dr. Sharpe has put, Eckley at first, and used Howard, cap-1 tain and shortstop of the 1919 team, in his place. Who will replace Val-l entine in left should he be used on the mound is still indefinite.I Burpee Likely Catchers Burpee, a varsity outfielder in 1915,f and a sub last spring, has thus far, shown up the best for the catcher'si job. He originally tried for this posi- tion in his sophomore year, but was beaten out by Clary, and later shifted to the outfield, that use might be made of his hitting ability. He was lead- off man for the nine in 1915 and in the earlier games in 1916. Clary's loss will be especially felt in the bat- ting lineup. For boxmen, Dr. Sharpe has, in ad- dition to Valentine, Perkins, who worked in a few of the early season games last year; Olsen, also a varsity sub in 1916, and Larson and Davies, from last year's freshman nine. O'Brien, who was ineligible last year because of the one-year residence rule, is working hard on the squad, and may develop into a first string moundsman. The Cornell schedule this year calls for 27 games, seven on the annual southern trip, taken this year from April 5 to 12. Exclusive of this, seven contests will be held abroad, and thir- teen at home. The season begins April 5 and ends June 16. Baseball has received considerable impetus at Cornell within the past year as a result of the agitation for a new baseball field and grounds. Base- Athletic Celebrities from All America Are Entered in Missouri Affair CARROLL WILL COMPETE FOR BALL TROPHY IN MILE RACE Michigan Captain Finds Himself Up Against Joie Ray of Illinois A. C. St. Louis, March 9.-(Special)-Four national champions, two national in- door champs, and scores of sectional, and A. A. U. title holders are entered in the Missouri A. C. meet to be held here tomorrow night. The class of the entries, collegiate, high school, and national, promises the fastest field which has been gath- ered together in St. Louis in the past decade. Simpson to Compete Bob Simpson, holder of the world's record in the hurdles, and Fred Mur- ray, now of the New York A. C., will' furnish plenty of speed in either ob- stacle race. Simpson is also down for the 50-yard dash. Captain Roscoe. Packer of Ames will be seen in the hurdle races as well. Jo Loomis and one or two of his fel- low-teammates of the Chicago A. A. are about the only national attractions which Al be missing from the pro-' gram. As is generally expected the 50-yard dash presents the most material. Mahl of the Columbia A. C. of the Moundl City, Hardy of Chicago, Collier of In- diana, Simpson and Renick of Mis- souri, and a galaxy of other western stars will compete for prizes. Material known country-wide will be seen in practically every otherĀ£ event on a program which will include1 high school, college, and A. A. U. stars. Over Tolur Ta orites in Coming Trays Comparative scores have served only to confuse observers of the different high school teams which will play in the interscholastic basketball tourna- ment to be held March 22, 23, and 24 in Waterman gymnasium. Some ideas can be gained, however, from the fol- lowing facts about the state teams: Grand Rapids Central has won all the games played up to this week, and Jackson has won all of its recent games, including one with Detroit Central, which is the champion in that city. The Centralites have lost no game except this one to Jackson by the score of 28 to 21. Northwestern was considered the next best team in the city until their recent defeat at the hands of Cass Tech by a score of 9 to 11, while Bay City Western, according to the scores has the advantage in the Saginaw val- ley. LANDERS, EBY, AND MEREDITH WATCHED IN TONIGHT'S MEET Hawley is Recommended to Dartmn St. Paul, March 9.-Jesse Haw former football coach at Iowa, been re commnededI for the position gridiron coach at Dartmouth, his a mater, by the middle west alumni sociation of Hanover College. place at Dartmouth is vacant throe the resignation of Cavanaugh. I,, ball is, at present, the only sport which has not its grounds on the Uni- versity campus. An alumni commit- tee has been placed in charge of the project, and $150,000 set as the goal.' Twenty-nine thousand dollars has al-j ready been collected in $1,000 gifts. Work will be commenced in June, and the structure will be in readiness for the semicentennial celebration in 1918. Allow Summer Ball A change has been made in the fac- ulty eligibility rules regarding base- ball players, which went into effect Jan. 1, 1917. Players may now appear. before a faculty committee and receive permission to play on summer nines, provided they first prove that they will receive no remuneration therefor. Players may also appear if they have already played on such a team, and state their cases to the committee, which will decide as to the action as to eligibility. Philadelphia, March 9.- When the indoor athletep gather here tomor- row night at the Commercial museum for the Meadowbrook meet, they will probably witness some sensational pole-vaulting by Sherman Landers, student at Pennsylvania University and holder of the world's interschol- astic record in that event. While Landers was still in prep school he established a record of 12 feet 8 inches, and it is expected that he will even top that mark here tomorrow night, which will be his debut in college athletics. His record is the same as that made last year by Foss of Cornell, who took the intercollegiate championship. It is also expected that Penn's wizard, Ted Meredith, will meet his match when he races against Early Eby. In a trial on Franklin field, Eby beat Meredith, but in actual competion Ted is considered unbeatable. Tomorrow night's grill will prove it one way or the other. Track athletes of all kinds have been entered from independent clubs from all parts of the United States. The Renellen Hospice 337 E. LIBERTY ST.

This is the second of the interclass games and will de- termine which of the upperclass teams will oppose the victorious freshmen in the cup game of March 16. Freshmen This is the result of but one day's mail. With two days still ahead to send in the coupons, it is expected that every seat in the gym will be taken before the reserved seat reservations are closed. Whether any Cornell supporters are contemplating the trip to Ann Arbor is unknown. WRESTLERS PUT ON SECOND SET OF TOURNAMENT BOUTS Pole Vault Doubtful The pole vault looks like a toss-up between Jacobs of Detroit and Cross and Robertson, the best of the year- ling crop. On ,past performances, the visiting star should take the blue rib- bon, but the youngsters are coming strong and may put something over on their more experienced opponent. Cross, the Muskegon boy, is a lad who has all the earmarks of a comer, if he can overcome certain crudities in his vaulting form. He has the arm-push of a champion, but his greenness so far has overbalanced this advantage. With Baker in the meet, the shot put appears to be a fairly safe bet for the Wolverine cubs. Bartuska, a new man with the build of a battleship, has been making wonderful progress in the last few days and will make his rivals hustle for first place. This man is monumentally green at the pill-heav- ing stunt, but those who have watched him in action -predict hard days for the back wall of the gym when he learns how the deed is really done. The meet will begin at 7:30 o'clock sharp and admission will be by ath- letic coupon number 15. The officials are as follows: Referee and starter, Dr. George A. May; clerk of course, Sid Millard; as- sistant clerks, Theime, Dudley, Pear- son, Beardsley; track judges, Carver, Murphy, Sedgwick, Zoellin; field judges, Cross, Smith, Kesler, Haigh; announcer, Dunne; scorers, Church, McDonald, Pardee, Thompson, Water- bury, Garrison; timers, Holbrook, Lundgren, Rowe, and Rand.

Carroll in Mile The big feature of the meet will be the mile race for the Ball trophy- a bronze emblem 24 inches in height. The present holder is Mike Mason, former captain of the Universityof Illinois. Each winner holds the cov- eted honor, the gift of Phil D. C. Ball, president of the St. Louis Browns, only as long as he is able to defend it successfully. Carroll of Michigan, Ray of the I. A. C. and Tenney of Chi- cago are the favorites. The interscholastic feature will be the Hess 880-yard run. Entries have been sent in from everylocal high school, and many of the surrounding schools. The winner of this event last year, George Schuster, will be in- eligible to compete tomorrow, as he graduated last June. Schuster is at present in the University of Michigan, where he is trying for a place on Coach Farrell's freshman track team. FRESH VICTORIES MARK CLOSE OF FIRST ROUND IN TOURNEY Two games played Thursday evening wound up the first round of the inter- class basketball league. The fresh laws beat the junior laws 9 to 3 in a scrap- py game. The fresh lits took a fall out of the junior lits with a 17 to 15 victory. Attempts by the juniors at brilliant individual work failed to -down the freshmen. Cohen, on the fresh team brought in 8 of the 17 points, while Miller and Palmer of the juniors each contributed four counters, There is opportunity in The Michi- gan Daily Ads. Read them.
