ANN ARBOR, Mich, May I'll
Michigan's baseball team IL still
leading in the Western conference
baseball race, while Illinois, last
years champion, is practically out

by Michigan, Iowa and Ohio State,
The Michigan team returned to
Ann Arbor Tuesday evening after
trimming Illinois last Saturday at
Erbana. 6 to 3. and Iowa at Iowa
City, Monday, Z to 4, in two con.
ference games. and Kalamazoo Nor

game. Coach Fisher Immediately
started long practice sessions to
prepare for the Michigan-Minneso
tits which take place in Ann Arbor
Friday and Saturday, the 18th and
18th. and the all important return
game with Ohio State on May %,
which looms up as serious OBJ
stacle in the Wolverines pennant
chase.
Michigan IL represented this year
bv a truly typical team and 1t is a
coincidence with the two Iowa vic
tories tucked away this year that
Iowa, has never won a baseball
game from Michigan in their years

Michigan holds the same jinx over
Indiana and Purdue and has won
15e games out Of the 207 played

MICHIGAN GRID
CANDIDATES
HARD At It

ANN ARBOR, Mich, May 21.-
Gridiron candidates for 1923 are
stiIl going through their PAGES ct
the University Of Michigan in one
OF the most intensive spring drills
held at that institution in number
Of years.
About seventy-five men are re.
porting for practice every afternoon
and are sent through fundamental
drills in blocking, tackling, passing
and running.
The second game OF the spring
season was held this week and
practically every man was given a
chance to show how he worked
under fire. The men have de.
veloped considerable enthusiasm
over the games this spring and
have played q brand Of football
which would do credit to the fall
season.

These expensive bits of bric-a.brac
have made far from a great inn
preston In Gotham, as can be gath
cred from reports from all sides.
O'Connell was reputed to have cost
the Giant treasury no less than $751;
900, while Mr.. Bentley, who seems
like q much better first baseman
than a pitcher, brought So, 900 ber-
ries on the hoof.

lev is finding the pitching burden

different from the hurting in In

But. on the other hand, there are
young Mr. Sammy Hale and
''Sparky'' Wild Mathews, who have
made good with loud bang for
the White Elephants.
Sam il reputed to have come for
S75. 900 from Portland, Ore, where
Tom Turner shines. And after a
lot OF sickness during spring train
ing and the early part of the sea-
son, Sam jumped into the lineup
while the AS were away from home
and started hitting with devastat-
ing deadliness that sent gloom into
the hearts of the opposing twirlers.
From the tinEIe of the gong,
announcing the start of the Amer
lean league season, "Matty"
proved he belonged up In fast
company.
He's naturally ambitious. and his
chief worry was that he'd fail 10
hit UP among the swift set. He
thought down South the American
league pitchers were sort of super
hurlers, and he gritted his teeth
to try and make some kind of a
commendable showing.
All he's done is to average at
least q hit a game, and sometimes
two or three. For a little fellow
he can pound out the wfckedest
extra.base wallops of any baseball
galaxy.

ing, which is nominally the best
feature Of his all-around play.
I'Matty'' will have the fans pop
eyed at his work, and he's clinched
that centerfield position so tightly
it would take a crowbar to pry him
out Of there. s
Connie paid $4,000 and three
players to Milwaukee for him and
it's one of the best bargains the
lean leader has ever made.

Famous sparring Partners.

FAMOUS Sp@fr1nB FarLneFS.
GOME boxers are too proud to
"a become sparring partners of
~ champions, fearing that the
fielding position will lower them
in the estimation of the boxing
public.
We can name any number Of IA
nous boxers today who were in
their time sparring partners for
others, while they we're still in
the kindergarten class.
Benny Leonard was a sparring
partner for Willie Richie, who at
that time was lightweight cham
pion.
Jack Johnson acted as sparring
partner for both Joe Walcott and
Kid Carter.
Jimmy Britt was a sparring
partner for Terry McGovern at
one time.
Willie Richie was sparring
partner for Packey Mcfarland.
Jim Jeffries was just a punch
ing bag for Jim Corbett at Carson
City when Pompadour Jim was
training for Fitz.
Gus Rubin was another who
took 'em on the chin from Corbett.
Gunboat Smith was a sparring
partner for Jack johnson.
Harry Wills, who is now the
most feared heavy in the world,
acted as sparring partner for Jack
Johnson.
Jim Corbett helped out Jack
Dempsey, the Nonpareil, when
the latter was shy of shock abb
sorbers while getting in shape for
one big battle.
There are any number of IA
nous boxers who have helped and
learned at the same time.
