Coach Farrell Needs One More

Quarter-Milers

TWO INDOOR MEETS REVEAL
TRIO OF FAST 440 ARTISTS
Three Youngsters Make Good Ree-
ords; Track Mentor Trying to
Develop Material
If Coach Farrell can find one more
man to round out his quartet of quar-
ter-milers, Michigan will be repre-
sented by a freshman relay team at
the Penn games for the first time.
The two indoor meets indulged in
by the first year men this winter un-
covered, among other things, a trio
of the fleetest 440 men that have
graced a Michigan cinder path in some
time. Day after day, these three men,
Butler, Forbes, and Hunt, have chalked
up times over at Waterman gym that
closely rivaled those registered by the
Varsity quarter-milers and in several
cases exceeded them.
In the Toledo meet, Forbes won the
quarter with Butler and Hunt but a
step behind him. The time was 54 2-5
seconds, two-fifths of a second slower
than the time made by Le Scoflela
against Notre Dame. Forbes was un-
able to compete against the Detroit
"Y" tracksters, and Butler took the
race, breaking the gym record by
crossing the tape just 53 2-5 seconds
after the gun popped. This mark,
however, was lowered the next week
when Acheson of Cornell made the dis-
tance in 53 seconds flat.
Lack Fourth Man
The only thing that, hinders Steve
from announcing right now that the
yearling quartet will go, is the dif-
ficulty he is experiencing in finding
the fourth man. No one as yet has.
appeared who seems capable of keep-
ing up the pace set by Btuler, Forbes,
and Hunt. The coach is working hard
with the material he has, however, in
the hope that he may be able to de-
velop a man capable of bearing his
end of the burden. So far, Schuster
and Stoll, half-milers, and Bergazine,
dash man, look the most promising.

If the youngsters are allowed to
take the trip, they will be entered in
the one-mile relay for college fresh-
man teams. This event was won last
year by the Pennsylvania yearlings,
with a time of 3 minutes 29 4-5 sec-
onds, an average of a little better than
52 3-5 seconds per man. Princeton
placed second, with Penn State third
and Columbia fourth.
SALL SQUI REPORTS
FOR GRIDIRON DILL
DIVIDED NUMBER WORKED AT
FORMATIONS, PASSING. AND
PUNTING
With 19 men out, Captain Smith led
four squads of grid men through prac-
tice yesterday afternoon. It was the
first drill since the squad has been
divided in two. No practice is sched-
uled for today, but all men who signed
up Monday are expected to report.
Any new men may start work with the
squad Monday.
Captain Pat Smith and Tad Weiman
dug Iup the turf in the lot near the
south end of Ann-Arbor. They made
the ground shake under a line-buck-
ing battle. Tad weighed in at 195 and
livened things for the captain, who is
five pounds lighter. It was Weiman's
first day out and he was the only man
from the regulars besides the captain.
The other warriors ran through
formation plays, passed, and punted.
Campbell and Loucks joined the prac-
tice squad yesterday. On Monday the
men will go through the same line that
the squad was drilled in yesterday.
The following men were in the squad
at spring football practice yesterday:
CAPTAIN SMITH.
WEIMAN. McALPINE.
ERNST. OSBURN.
ZAPP. LOER.
EDWARDS. MACLAUGHLIN.
CADWELL. DAVIES. .
RYCHENER. SCHMITT.

ling team would go outside today.

Yale Looking for
1917 Track Title
Strong All-fresh Squad of Last Year
Promises Much; Overton and
Treadway Back
New Haven, Conn., March 30.-When
Wesley Oler, the former Olympic
champion, urged the Yale track team
candidates two weeks ago to stop
short of nothing except an intercol-
legiate championship this season he
voiced the feeling at Yale that the
team will prove stronger, better bal-
anced, and more formidable than any
in a dozen years.
Then There's Overton
The addition of Rodman, de Cernea,
Potter, Stanley, Otis, and Niles of last
season's freshman team has provided
a wealth of new material, and Johnny
Overton and Johnny Farwell, the all-
round stars of the team, are in record-
breaking form in the distance runs
and the hurdles.
Yale has a remarkable all-round
track star in Tom Redman, the former
Andover captain and leader of the Yale
freshmen last season. Rodman scored
in four events in the 1919 meet against
the Crimson last year, his best per-
formance being in the high jump, in
which he registered a leap of six feet.
He promises to fill the vacancy in the
team caused by the loss of Captain
Wesley Oler of last spring's squad.
Yale has promising sprinting possi-
bilities in de Cernea and Niles. Both
have run close to ven time in the
100 yards and have completed the fur-
long event in 22 seconds. Heaton
Treadway, who has failed to defeat
Eddie Teschner of Harvard twice, but
who scored fifth in the intercollegiates
in the 100-yard and fourth in the 200-
yard races, probably will figure in all
the Yale meets this spring.
Two Good Jumpers
In the field events Yale is unusually
strong. Rodman and F. G. Grant in
the high jump are six-foot leapers.
Grant has done, 22 feet in the broad
event and G. E. Nichols 21 feet 6
inches. Yale's traditional strength in
the pole vault will be displayed again
by Heyl and Nagle, each of whom is
capable of clearing the bar at 12 feet.
RUN OFF FIRST MATCHES OF
YEAR IN HANDBALL TOURNEY
Play has stated in the handball
tournament at Waterman gym. Two
matches have been played in the
doubles division and two in the singl-
es tourney.
Entrants are tequested to play off
their matches as soon as possible and
to see the schedule posted in the hand-
ball room at the gymnasium.
Reilly and Gilmartin won from
Hathway and Phelps to the score of
15-0, 15-1. George and Cohn elimin-
ated Alden and Broberg, 15-2, 15-13.
In the singles Wickoff won from
Reilly by default, Weltman took Alden
hnto camp at 15-5, 15-6, and Broberg
after a match which went the full
three games won from Gilmartin at
15-4, 13-15, 15-7.

VARSITY AGIN DOWNS
SECOND STRING NINE
GAME FEATURED BY PITCHING
OF OHLMACHER AND
HEAVY HITTING
The Varsity baseball team, after
four innings of battle marked a 6 to 0
victory against the second team in
the third practice game of the sea-
son.
Ohlmacher, who was on the mound
for the regulars, seemed to have the
cubs eting out of his hand. i During
the entire time but one hit was gath-
ered from his delivery, and that in
the first inning before he was warmed
up. Captain Brandell and Newell each
got to Saunders, the second string
twirler, for three baggers, while sin-
gles were plentiful. The Varsity has
been hitting the ball at a lively clip
since the first day, and the outlook is
dark for the pitchers who will oppose
them later in the season.
Rally in First
Loose fielding in the first inning re-
sulted in three runs for the regulars,
but after the first rally the second
team hit its stride and the tallies were
more or less scattered during the re-
maining three innings. The game on
the whole was well played and the
fielding of the Varsity especially
snappy.
The lineup of the Varsity was: Matt-
son, c.; Ohlmacher, p.; Newell, 1b.;
Dancer, 2b.; Horwitz, 3b.; Brandell,
ss.; Cooper, rf.; Walterhouse, cf.;
Reem, lf. The second team's lineup
included; Morrison, c.; Saunders, p.;
Birmingham, lb.; Labadie, 2b.; King,
3b.; Larson, ss.; Martin, rf.; Kirch-
gessener, cf.; Garrett, It.
Billy Niemann reported for practice.
for the first time in five weeks yester-
day. The outfielder has been out with
a fracture and has. just been per-
mitted to come out. Bill got oe hit
out of two chances at the bat, Dancer
running for him. It is possible that
he may go south after all, in case he
is not slowed up too much by the in-
jury to his foot.
CLOSE WATERMAN GYMNASIUM
FROM 11 TO 3 O'CLOCK TODAY
Waterman gymnasium will be clos-
ed from 11 to 3to'clock this afternoon
on account of the Michigan women's
luncheon in Barbour gymnasium as
well as the Junior Girls' play.
Director May announced that the
women would probably require more
space than their gym allows, and con-
sequently the gym and track will be
closed during that period. The inter-
class track meet may be delayed a
half hour or so as a result.

FRESHMEN START FINAL LAP
OF REQUIRED WORK IN GYM
Active Work to Be Supplemented by
Lectures and Exams During
Last Week,
The freshmen gym classes have en-
tered upon the last stretch of their
work, and next week will conclude
the requirement of exercise set for
them.
Dr. George A. May, director of the
Waterman gymnasium, intends to fol-
low his old plan of lectures as a
final supplement to the gym work and
next week will talk to each class upon
future development and activity of
the students in athletics. These lec-
tures endeavor to show the benefits

in continued gymnasium and outdoor
exercises and the lines of sport that
will be most beneficial at certain per-
iods of life.
As in former years freshmen will
be submitted to a second physical ex-
amination immediately after the close
of the spring recess so that the devel-
opment -of each individual may be
clearly shown.
With reference to the gymnasium
work of next year as affected by possi-
ble military training, Dr. May stated
that according to his knowledge no
change in the usual program would be
necessary.

Shredded Wheat
and keeps a clear brain and supple, elastic muscles
ready for the combat in class room or athletic field.
Shredded Wheat contains all the nutritive material
in the whole wheat grain and its daily use keeps the
stomach sweet and clean and the bowels healthy
and active. It is the favorite food of men and women
who do things with hand or brain. It is on the train-
ing table of nearly every college and university in the
United States and Canada. Deliciously satisfying and
sustaining when served with milk or cream, or in com-
bination with fresh fruits. It contains more real nutri-
ment than meat or eggs and costs much less.
