VICTORY PROSPECTS
BRIGHT FOR ALL
j. OF N. ATHlETS
LOOKS AS If MICHIGAN MEN
COULD WALK AWAY WITH
ANYTHING THIS YEAR

Ann Arbor, Mich, Mar. 16.-Mich-
igan's track team will get its first
real test Of the season Saturday
night when Steve Farrell's charges
enter the indoor Conference cham
pionships at Evanston, Ill.
Michigan won the indoor meet in
1918, the first year after her return
to the Western Conference, in easy
fashion. The Wolverines took Al
points, Chicago ranking second with
%. Last year Michigan again won
the indor meet, but the Maroons put
up a much harder battle, the final
count standing 1914 to BAY. Illinois
placed third last year with 18 points.
This year Farrell rates Illinois
ahead of Chicago and looks for a
bitter battle with the Illinois for the
Big Ten indoor title. Michigan de-
feated Chicago easily last week, 66
to 20.
Carl Johnson, sensational Michigan
athlete, will enter the 50-yard dash,
60-yard high hurdles and high jump
at Evanston Saturday night and un-
less the dope is all wrong he will
win all three events.
Lashmet, Losch and Cook will add
a point or two in the dash and Baker

have passed beneath the rod my
dear, Just the same as you;
Have never won Croix de Guerre
Nor done great deeds it's true,
But my precious friend you will admit
It's true,
It's mighty hard to follow suit and
be just simply me and you.
So when all our days are done, my
friend,
And our star sets in the west, we
may never have been perfect,
Altho we tried our best;
And it will be some comfort there
It's true,
That we ever tried to be just simply
me and you.
