AND PURDUE MEN

in DaSheS and Middle Dis
tanCe-ROCkne and WiCkS to
Fight For Pole Vault.

Notre Dame has entered a squad OF
Is athletes in the triangular track
meet that is 20 take place at Lafay-
cite on May so Eotre Dame Pyr-
due and Indiana viii contend for vic
tory ana, as these three schools are
easily the strongest a. Indiana the
winner VIII be the state champion
This viii be Notre Danes FIRST meet
sag with the dOwn-state schools in
sevcE years, and tic locals are anX-
iCus 10 celebrate tho renewal Of ath-
letic relations by walking OF with
premier honOrs IN the Memorial day
meet.
bergman and Newning are the men
entered by Coach Harper in the 100
yard dash Bergman has often been
ciOcked in 10 fiat for IN century,
while Harry Newning ran WATSON a
dead heat at Notre Dame last spring
Bergman is practically certain TO cop
first pace. while Newning should
also break into The point column. AS
both men are playing regularly on
the baseball team, they have not been
able 10 give a great deal OF atten-
ton to track activities. Their base
ball playing keeps them in good con
dition. however. and as both men
are noted for their speed on the
bases they should do well In the con-
test with the downstate schools. Both
men will practice their starts all next
week so as 10 be in the best Of trim
for the meeting. This pair. with
Captain Marty" Henehan, are en-
tered in the 220.
Notre Dame has three fast men In
the 44O, Captain Henehan, Birder
and WEIGH Though this is Welch's
first year in varsity company he is
able 10 step the quarter in fast time
and should be OF some help 10 the
locals at Lafayette. Henehan and
Birder are sure 10 place Notre
Danes strength in this meet will lie
to a large extent in the dashes and
middle distance runs. Plant and
Bartholomew will take care Of the
gold and blue in the half mile. Plant
is able 10 turn the mark OF under
two minutes in the $50 and should
land high in the point column in this
event. Bartholomew went well in the
half indoors and should pick up s
point or two.
NOtre Dame is not very strong in
the distance runs. but with Miller.
PacigaiupO and Bartholomew running
In the mile. and Miller. Costello and
Bacigalupo in the two-mile. the gold
and blues point total should be in
creased in these events. The marks
made by Indiana and Purdue in the
weight events in their recent dual
meet were not very formidable and
NOtre Dame should have an excellent
chance Of going into the lead through
the work OF Eichenlaub, ROckne and
Jones. "Eich" and Rock" will put
the shot and as both men have done
we'll over 40 feet, they should land
places. Eichenlaub and Jones are
entered in the discus and in this
event also Notre Dame ought 10 do
we'll. Jones has not done very much
work with the discus in other years
bat he has shown good form lately
and can be counted on for points.
Iarkin and Duggan are Notre
Danes entries IN the hurdles. Dug
gan has been prevented from doing
much work with the barriers because
OF his playing on the baseball squad.
Bunny" Larkin clipped the hurdles
in good style indoor and should go
well at Lafayette. In the pole vault.
NOtre Dame is practically sure Of
first place. for ROckne, the locals
lone entrant, can do over II feet
Rock viii also compete I'm the
broad jump. Hood is entered IN the
high and broad jumps and "Rupe"
Mills. another baseball man. is down
for the high jump
