Whether Michigan will partici-
pate this year if the meet is held
IN the east is undecided.
Ferry field, where the University
Of Michigan's athletic plant is sit
uated. is adequate for the staging
of large track and field meet such
as the intercollegiate. In 1920 the
western conference track and field
meet was held on Ferry field and
Big Ten teams found every facility
for the proper conduct of the meet.
The Michigan cinder track, which
is one of the best and fastest in
the country, has 220-yard
strafghtaway for the dashea and
hurdles, a quarter-mile track with
only one turn, and six lanes can be
made in the track.
The javelip throw, pole vault.
high jump and broad Jump are run
off in the arena inside the track.
Close unobstructed views of all the
events are afforded from the stands.

between the player and the goal of
his ambition, working his way up
to the big league. Likewise, il
eliminates the chance of gradual
progression that is open to the play
ers from the smallest minor organi-
cation up to the big leagues.
The player is really the hardest
hit by the failure to agree on a
draft rule. With the present meth
DDS the majors take a chance only
on the players whom they feel
have fine chance to deliver. The
promising player who seems t.
have ability but lacks experience
and polish is overlooked.
The player also suffers from the
standpoint of salary While the
minors pay good money, they must
keep salaries in proportion to the
gate The attendance and the
prices at the minor league games,
even the Big Three" who have
opposed the draft, in no way com
pares with the major league stand
ards. Once again the player suf-
fers.
1t will be interesting to note the
attitude that the majors take at
the February meeting. The minor
leagues who have opposed the draft
have come out in the open. Will the
majors accept the dictation without
fighting back? 1 seriously doubt it.
1t is well-known fact that the
American Association, the Interna-
tional League and the Pacific coast
would like a major league rating
There is a chance that some very
interesting things may develop in
baseball before the opening of the
1922 campaign.

While conceding Davenport earned
its victory, it is said the score
should have been much closer. At
times the playing developed into
a farce that evoked the condemna-

feature for Moline was the playing
of Carlmark at guard while Stet-

The other two big minor leagues,
the International and American As
ISOLATION, have practically reached
the same decision.
That means that the three big
minor leagues of the country have
arrayed themselves together
we'll as the minor organizations
who look on the draft with favor
There are two sides to every
question. 1t is very easy to justify
the position of the three big minor
leagues. Within the last three
months some of the clubs have re-
ceived as much for one player as
they would get under the draft in
a dozen years for that many play
ers.
The San Francisco club received
$4,000 for O'Connell. If the draft
had been in force the very best
O'Connell would have brought
would have been $500, just one
tenth of the amount actually re-
ceived.
1t is easy to figure why the Pa
cific Coast League would decide to
turn down the draft by merely ap-
plying the rules of common sense to
that one particular care. Why bind
yourself to a contract that makes
the limit of your possibilities $500
when you can get 10 times that
much by being a free lance?
Then there is the other side, the
barrier that such a scheme sets I'M
