men who direct activities in those
sports.
Dr.. Lloyd W. Odds emphasized
that the track card which he has
arranged for the outdoor season is
comparable to schedules Of other
years. Odds, who also supervises
the golf team, asserted that the
Huron linksmen would engage in
- or IA matches as in past sea-
sons.
The same situation applies to
baseball, Coach Ray Sites having
lined up ) contests. To make the
picture complete, DR.. Paul b. Sam
son tennis pilot. today announced
that his team was scheduled to play
II matches, four more than last
year.
Dates for Il of the Tits have al.
ready been set, and negotiations
for a home-and-home series with
the University of Detroit are in
progress. Samson said. The Huron
METERS will open their season April

the Huron team sometime In May.
Though examining doctors at
Henry Ford Hospital, where the
Detroiter underwent an operation,
predicted that Carakostas would
not be able TO throw again this
spring. they have revised thei'
opinion. He will probably be ready
to pitch by the end OF six weeks.
Ken engaged IN a brief workout

Meanwhile, another leading HUI

take over the No. l spot on the
mound staff left vacant by the i'll
