The milling was fast and furious
and many fouls escaped the notice of
the referee, the z. B. five being the
/ greatest offender in this respect The
4. Il. five was outweighed about five
or ten pounds to the man. and on a
slippery floor this proved a decided
advantage, although it considerably

which they held nearly the whole first

abled the clothiers to catch up, and
they finished two points in front, the
score being is to 16. Grant played
exceptionally good in this half and
was a whirlwind on following the
ball.
At the start of the second half,
Eager came to life and got his eye on
the basket. His work when under the
goal was the best seen at the u. b. hall
for some time. His passing and floor
work was excellent and he had free
rein practically all of the time. Grant
was also conspicuous in the starring
line this half and on this duo and
O'DOnnell fell the brunt of the u. b.
attack.

COACH HARPER IS
E.NSHROUDED WITH
DEEP DARK GLOOM
Says Prospects For Winning
Baseball Team Are Slim
While Miller Twists Ankle on
Eve of Meet With Michigan.

Prospects for a winning baseball
team this year are gloomy, TO say the
least, said Coach Jesse Harper OF
p Nome Dame. just after the first prac-
tice Of the season yesterday after
noon. a great many stars were lost
through graduation last year and not
enough sophomores came on 10 ill
their places.
The weakness lies chiefly in the in
field and in the pitching staff. "Cy"
Farrell, Harry Newning and CHIEF
Myers are missed greatly from the
bases ana the loss of "Moke" Kelley
and Dolly Grey materially weaken
the chance for the batteries.
The outfield remains practically as
IL was last year. THE men last year
were great fielders, but were weak in
hitting" said Harper yesterday.
Play High Low.
The practice yesterday in the big
university gym consisted chiefly in
infield work "High-lOw'' was used
during the majority of the practice.
About % men were out yesterday.
although many more are expected
this afternoon
OF the pitchers, Sheehan, Berger
y
DOrwin, one of last years freshmen,
was out and showed up well. Pete"
Nets was designated by Harper as
the most likely running mate with
Kenny behind the bat.
So il is that Harper will lie forced
20 develop an entire new infeld be-
fore the schedule begins in the spring
RE intimated last night that Lath-
rop. a brilliant Outfield man, might
be moved in 10 the diamond. Ward,
substitute basket ball center, is an
other promising candidate for inheld
work.
Miller Twists Ankle.
Gloom. black and deep. has spread
its unwelcOme wings over the track
camp and with but a few days re-
naming before the meet with Mich
igan at Ann ArbOr, chances Of the
locals defeating the Wolverines are
meager, TO say the most.
John Miller. high and broad jump
er on the gold and blue team, will not
be in the Michigan meet Saturday.
Coach ROckney said yesterday that
Miller had twisted his ankle and that
he woulc be unable to compete against
Michigan in the high jump.
The news of Miller's injury, COM
ing on top Of the announcement that
a wrenched ligarnent would prevent
Eddie" Duggan. star hurdler. from
appearing at Ann ArbOr and following
only a short TIME the withdrawal of
Capt. Eichenlaub from track and all
other forms OF athletics, has pushed
chances for victory into the back
ground.
Eichenlaub has always been con-
slstent point winner in the weights,
while DugSan has shown up 10 date
as the most promising of the murders.
Miller has been showing good form
in the jumps.
