In spite of the fact that the Wol- verines were forced to stare impris- onment in the eye, they marched past the dragon at the gate of Ferry field and played baseball as carelessly as though the county jail were not yawn- ing for their persons. When Bran started to go onto the field, he was told that he and his young army would only practice on that sacred sward at their peril; that it was for tbm to pay due heed to the generous warning and retreat. But The eminent gate warden of the held was laboring under the impres- sion that Michigan's Varsity baseball team was a trespassing orani::alion.i It is rumored that Coach Lundgrcn is excedingly nervous about tmh sleeping quarters of his t um, iOLD MAR 1IINL, 11.S, A D FOLK I)AN C17N DE MUO TRA1ThNS Represcantatives freum AU ( lasses to Appear in Annual E~x. hibition Marching, drills, and folk dancing will be the principal events of the annual demonstration of the depart- ment of physical education for wvomen.

All four of the boys mentioned above have won their way into the finals, and on paper it looks as though a couple of whirlwind bouts were com- ing. The winners in this afternoon's contests will receive the trophies do- nated to the winners of the respective championships. Thirty men showed up for the initial spring football practice yesterday at Ferry field. The day was cold and the ground soggy and nothing but very elementary work was indugled in. Passing, punt- ing, blocking, and talling oi the ball was about the sum total of the work. Perhaps owing to the weather, or the early season, only three of the old men were on the job. Captain Smith, Goodsell and Hildner being the only old timers present. The All-fresh team was conspicuous by its absence, Hitchcock, Froemke, and Zapp of the yearling eleven were there, but the rest were absent. Captain Smith Protests Relative to the prospects thus early in the season, Captain Smith said, "We Sare all going to work hard right from rthe start, and a fine opportunity will be given everyone to pick up a lot of football before the fall grind com- mences. The showing tonight is de- cidedly poor, and we should have at least twice as many men out. The older men should lay off what ever they are doing and come out and help coach the new men. Give us some men and we will get action." rendoubtedly the weather combined wvithi the fact that many men are out sfor baseball and track was the reason ,dptdfor the poor showing night, but with spring here the football men daould be lured from their lairs and real -work started. Crilitary rill ,For College Team New York, March 2.-Following the precedent set by the big league pro- fessionals baseball clubs in the south, military training and driling will be opted by the diamond squad of Col- umbia university as a part of the daily practice. After a conference with ,Coach Andy J. Coakley and Graduate Manager Harry A. Fisher, the manage- ment of the collegians' nine decided to devote a part of the practice period of thee hours each afternoon to the fundamental executions of infantry drill. The Columbia squad of candidates is now divided into two sections, and be- tween 3:45 and 4:15 o'clock daily, when one division has finished prac- tice and the other group is about to begin, a half hour's drill will be the program. Although a competent drill sergeant will probably be in charge of the in- struction for the first few days, it is planned later to have the drilling held under the direction of students who are preparing for the offiers'reserve corps. At a meeting Major Cochran of Governor Whitman's staff assembl- ed all Columbia students who have had military training in the ationa yguard, at a Plattsburg clamp, or at West Point, and drilling began in the after- noon, when a squad of 25 such men started preparations to become fitted to lead a battalion of students.

Compared with the initial squad which appeared Monday, the eight men out yesterday didn't make a very im- pressive showing, but the day was of poor character for track men to work. Scofield made his second appear- ance since his exit before the Cornell meet, and seems to be benefitted by his layoff, but whether the flying jun- io will regain the form of which he ise capable cannot be proved until warmer weather. Only track men will be able to uti- lize the field during the present week unless better weather makes itself felt for several days. The field pits are in bad shape, and must be almost thoroughly dried out before the shot putters, high jumpers, and others can perform. Farrell is preparing to give his re- lay men and others expected to journ- ey to Des Moines for the Drake re- lays, a chance to get into shape as soon as possible. Nothing definite has been decided upon as to what men will make the trip. Present in- dications point to the entrance of two relay teams at least, out of the total of four events of this kind to be run. NEW HAVEN BASKETBALL TEAM WINS EASTERN CHAMPIONSHIP Yale Quintet Outlasses All Opponents and Drops But One Game During Entire Year New York, MariL 27.-In winning the intercollegiate basketball league championship last week the quintet representing Yale lived up to expecta- tions, according to Ralph Morgan, Sec- retary of the league, who has just completed the basket ball statistics. The Eli five presented a veteran lineup, with a development in basket- shooting and team play that was a higher standard than any seen in lea- gue competition in recent years. The New Havenites finished the season with a slate of nine victories and one defeat, and on their all around play- ing they maintained a wider margin of superiority over rival teams than their record for the season would indicate.m The Yale team scored 326 points on its opponents, as against 205 scored against it. Princeton finished in sec-l ond place with eight victories andtwo defeats, and Pennsylvania was third in the final compilation with five victo- ries and he same number of reverses. Dartmouth, Columbia, and Cornell fin- ished ingorder. HARVARD TRACK TEAM CALLED FOR ANNUAL SPRING PRACTICE Cambridge, Mass., March 27.-Can- didates for the Harvard track team have been called out. The best men, in the running events have been in training all winter, but the general, call will bring out all the candidates who seek places on the team. A whitewash is the verdict expected as the result of the track team in- vestigation which two committees are now making.I Horwitz was not out. The coach is especially pleased with the work of the men around the bases, their field- ing showing to much better advantage outdoors and indicating an improve- ment over last year's progress at this period. More attention was given to the out- fielders than hitherto. The coach kept his secondary defense men working longer than usual. With the chance that Billy Niemann will not be able to take the southern trip outfielders are in greater demand and the coach will have to fill two places instead of the single one vacated by Captain Brandell. Walterhouse has been work- ing out on the long drives since the- squad went to Ferry field while Gar- rett, Kirchgessner, Cooper and Martin are the other possibilities for outfield positions. Guy Reem is the only Var- sity outfielder working in the gardens at present. Four' Men Dropped Four men were dropped from the squad, two catchers and two infield- ers. The probabilities are that anoth- er cut will be made before the trip south, although the coach has made no authoritive statement to that ef- fect. Infielders are still numerous and the chances are that the pitchers may be thinned out again when the! coach has had sufficient time to watch their work outdoors. Throwing seems to be the chief trouble of the men at present. Some of the infielders are having difficulty getting their throws to the bases away with accuracy to correspond to their speed. The defect is probably due as much to change in environ- ment, wind, and cool weather as much as any one thing. Captain Brandell stated that the squad looked as good on the first day outdoors this season as the 1916 team did on the eve of its departure for the south last year. * ALL-FRESH BASEBALL* * CANDIDATES REPORT* * _ * All men intending to try out* *d for battery or infield positions on * the All-fresh baseball team will * * report to Coach Maltby from 1 to 3 * o'clock today in Waterman gym- * * nasium. Aspirants will bring * gloves and tennis shoes, in order * that a short practice may be held. * LACK OF EQUIPMENT DELAYS INITIAL YEARLING PRACTICE Owing to the lack of equipment and the small number in attendance, the initial practice of the All-fresh base- ball team, scheduled for yesterday aft- ernoon, was changed to this afternoon. About half of the usual number of candidates answered the first call of Coach Maltby, and those who did an- swer neglected to bring gloves and tennis shoes, so that no practice was held. As today's practice is the result of the second call, the coach expects to be greeted by a large number of as- pirants. Freshmnen Women Hlold Preliminaries Freshmen women tried out in seven registered events and a relay race in the first preliminary apparatus meet at 4:50 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Individual records were kept, each girl participating in three of the seven events. The girls making the best all around averages will be chosen to compete in the interclass apparatus meet of April 4. About 75 girls were out for yester- day's meet. The upperclass women! who acted as judges in the sophomore meet were also judges for yesterday's meet. ' i - ..
