likely to- see Benny Fried
man, the great Wolverine
football quarter back and forward
passing star, in the Michigan
Boilermaker scrap at Lafayette on
Saturday. Benny has been hold
ing down third base for Michigan.
Coach Fisher was forced to build
an almost entirely new team this
season. Jablonowski and Walter
are two veteran pitchers who are
back. Captain Wilson, first base
man, and Puckolwartz, center
fielder, are the only others remain
ing of last years team.
Purdue is likely to go up
against "Jabby," and the recent
heavy hitting of Coach Lam
bert's club may be slowed up.
The pitcher with the funny name
allowed Vanderbilt only two hits
on the southern trip. Up and
at'em Boilermakers and jab some
OF Jabby's slants.
Purdue is off to flying start
this season with three victories
over Big Ten foes. The Hoosier
lineup seems pretty will settled
at this time, with Pierce at first;
Wilcox, second; Rabe, shortstop;
Ware. third. Rabe is a former
Technical High School athlete.
The regular outfeld trio consists
of Captain Taube, Flock and IA
venscraft. Wise is doing a good
Job back of the bat.
Charles Hulswrrt, a Louisville
youth, pitched two Of the Big
Ten victories over Ohio and
Northwestern. Another Charles,
whose surname is Maxton, turned
in a good game against Chicago
to win. Other pitchers are Da-
vies, and two McHargue boys.
Raymond McHargue is a south
paw. Both of them hurled well
against Wabash on Wednesday.
The pitching staff has been wor-
rying Lambert somewhat, but as
the season advances it begins to
look as though he has much re-
serve box strength, at least. III
one twirler is unsteady there will
be others ready,
The team has been hitting,
which is the most encouraging
thing that can be said about a
college nine.
1.-TWO indianapolis youths
will compete under the col
- ors Of Notre Dame at the
big relay carnivals today and
Saturday, Charles Riley and Paul
Harrington. Quite bit Of interest
is attached to the announcement.
that Harrington, pole vaulter, will
be the lone Irish" representative
at the Penn tourney.
Harrington was injured in the
Texas relays early this spring
and IL was thought ne would be
out of his speciality the rest of
the season. He made his first APP
pearance since the injury at
Ohio relays, and while he was
off form, tied for second.
Last year, Harrington tied for
first place at the Penn relays. His
Vaulting during the indoor season
raised great hopes, and then came
the unfortunate sprain in Texas.
A tradition has grown up of
late at Notre Dame that the one
man sent to the Penn games
must take first in his event. 1t
is quite a bill to fiji, but for
years the entrant wearing the
Gold and Blue has done this
very thing. "What will Harring-
ton dO?"
Charlie Riley, the other Indi-
annapolis product, is one Of Notre
Danes best bets on the special
sprint team to take part in the
Drake relays. The former Cathe-
dral High School grid star Is one
of the fastest tracksters at the
South Bend school.

Aquatically inclined members Of
the Hoosier Athletic Club will en-
deavor to prove to the officers of
FIT. Harrison that the Armys
place is on dry land, when the
two teams get together in a dual
meet Saturday evening at the II.
A. G. pool.
After the battle the regular
swimming team and various swim
ming classes Of the II, A. C. will
entertain the spectators with a
number Of interesting and novel
events.
Interesting facts are drifting

Chicago baseball game last

mark. The outflelders wore nit
tens and tossed them off when a
fly came their way. The subs on
the bench huddIed around bon
fires. Every one had on a couple
of sweaters. Don't ask us
WHY they played the game.
