Michigan Big Threat to Conference Track Title Wolverines and Indiana Favorites as Annual Big Ten Indoor Meet Saturday: Ohio State and Illinois Ranked as Contenders. BY FRED BAILEY Pres* Staff Corrr*pondrnt CHICAGO, March 8 Michigan appeared today as the chief threat tc wre;' ihe Big Ten track champonship from Indiana at the twentyf( 'irth annual meet in the University of Chicago fleldhouse Saturday. Although the Hoosiers have held the championship the past two years, the Wolverines were ra*ed on even terms. In 1932. Indiana's margin over Michigan was hut five-sixths of a point. Last year the margin was four points.

The athletes from Ann Arbor will re!; principally upon Willis Ward, a big Negro who starred on the 1933 championship Michigan lootball The hopes ot his team depends upon his performance in the dash, high hurdles and high jump. Indiana's principal reliance will .be placed in Ban Fuqua and Charles Hornboestel, two stars who won fifteen points in the 1932 meet. Both are in the best of condition, having competed in several winter indoor meets in whirh they gave a good performance. Old Stars Missing Both of the contenders have suffered heavy losses since the 1933 meet Michigan will be without the services of Egelston and Pantlind. two hurdles stars of the last meet. D" Baker, 440-yard dash star, and 'Turner, a half-miler, both will be missed, having graduated. Two members of the winning relay team —De Baker and Allen—will be absent from the Wolverine lineup Howell, third last year in the mile run, and Moisio, who placed in the high jump, have graduated. Among the Indiana losses are Couch, dash star; Cliff Watson, winner of the t.wo-mile; Nesse. second in the two-mile, and Busbee, who was second in the shot last year. Biddingcr. fourth in the shot, will not compete. Ohio and Illinois appear to be the contenders for third place, with both rated an outside chance for an upset victory over either Michigan or Indiana. Champions in only four events will be back to defend their honors. Ward won the high jump last year and was expected to repeat. Fuqua won the 440 and Hornboestel the 880 for Indiana. Dave Cook, of Illinois. will defend his shot-put. Concede Eight Firsts Michigan athletes were favored to win first place in four of the events Saturday. These were the 60-yard dash <Ward>. 70-yard high hurdles (Ward), two-mile run 'Neree Alix* and high jump iWard>. Indiana track stars likewise were expected to win four first places. These were the 440-yard run 'Fuqua*. 830-yard run 'Hornboestel*. mile run 'Hornboestel* and mile relay. Cook was expected to retain the shot-put for Illinois, and Irvin Seeley, although suffering from injuries. was rated as the best of the pol Q vaulters. If Seeley is not in form Devich. of Indiana, may be the favorite.

A BIT of a chill lingered along the spines of Tech's backers today. It came, not from frigid weather, but from the fear that Johnny Townsend, the ace pivot man of the Green and White quintet, may not travel with the east siders to Anderson for the regional tournament Saturday. The big hardwood performer was out of school yesterday with a cold from which he has suffered since last week-end, and Tim Campbell, Tech cage mentor, was not optimistic about Johnny's chance of returning to the squad before the regional meet. Without Townsend, as Backboard propounded and Tim agreed, Tech’s chances to battle Plainfield and Anderson back into their stalls are slimmer than any skinny gentleman in a circus sideshow. Even with Townsend Tim says he couldn't expect an easy time of it at Anderson.

IN the first place. Plainfield won’t be quite the set-up that most folks think, the east side mentor asserts. Coach Bill Bugg has a ' husky crew out west of town, and his first five is bolstered by splendid ! reserve strength. One of the rej serves, Weber, is a 15-year-old j freshman who stands 6 feet 5*2 j inches and tips the scales at 195 pounds. Weber’s size and natural | ability have stood Bugg in good | stead several times during the reguI lar campaign.

North American Gymnastic Union of this city. Valentine did some splended swimming recently in the Northwestern meet, opposing Art Highland in every event. The Saturday meet will begin at eight o’clock and short distance events will be used throughout the program, coach Sawin said.

I following order as state tourney I choices: Logansport, Jeffersonville, | Vincennes, Muncie, Tech, Bloom- ! ington, Hartford City, Greencastle, i Rushville, Franklin, Reitz of Evans- | ville, South Bend, Frankfort, Valparaiso, Marion and Columbia City. The sectional meet at Evansville was a great financial success . . . | it paid off all expenses and added ! 33 cents to the coffers of Arthur L. Trester’s Ihsaa . . . compare this average with the teams you’ve watched: Thirteen quintets in the Richmond sectional averaged 53.87 per cent of their free throws during the meet . . . Johnny McNaughton of Wabash is one of the most dangerous scoring threats in the state . . . all. season Mac piled up the points, and in the sectional meet at Wabash he scored fifty-five points in three tilts, averaging 18.3 points a game . . . Reitz of Evansville staged a celebration after winning that sectional, and the players were given roses, which are traditional athletic symbols at Reitz. an tt \ N oversight is called to Back- , board's attention: | Dear Sir—ln The Times why pick the [ winner of every regional except Martins- [ ville? You do not need to pick BloomingI ton, but do not ignore our regional when picking the winner of every other, j EDW ARD S. BROWN, Bloomington, Ind. Backboard's apologies sincerely offered, Mr. Brown. More than a month ago Backboard chose Marj tinsville to return to the state tour- ! nament this month via the Bloomington sectional and cheir own regional. At that time I said there | was a chance that the Panthers ; would spill the Artesians in the sectional. and added that if that happened, my choice then lay with Brai zil. And it still does. Leaving the | Martinsville regional out the other day was a fumble, quite uninten- : tional. The pick is Brazil. B B B HERE'S a great sportsman. Little Willie of Shortridge, who has been one of Backboard's best contributors and one of the Blue Devils’ staunchest backers this season. Dear Carl—Well, Tech beat Shortridge and copped the sectional. So what? Personally I expected nothing less than this, even if I did say Shortridge would win the state. I wish Tech all the luck in the regionals but I think the Campbellmen will beat them. As for Logansport and Newcastle (if they go to the state) Tech ought to eliminate them both. Wishing Tim Campbell and his boys lots of luck, your's until next year. LITTLE WILLIE OF S. H. 8. BBS AND another Shortridger casts his lot. with the Green and White to go on to victory in the regional and state meets. Dear Carlos—As the parade of Indiana's best basketball teams marches on to the Butler fieldhouse. perhaps you will pause | to hear a short word from one team which lost out. We're still proud es our team at Shortridge. and we have nothing but congratulations and best wishes for the masterful Tech five. I think I can speak safely for the entire student body at Shortridge in saying that Tech has really proved itself a better team, and therefore we are glad to get behind the Green and White and cheer them on to victory in the state tournament. Coach Tim Campbell exhibited a rare bit of strategy ir holding back Dobbs last Saturday. I rcallv believe he planned to keep an ace in the hole just ip case the Blue Devils battled into the lead. Now that the Blue Devils have been put out of the race t-ntil next winter. I’m sure everv one out at Meridian and Thirtyfourth streets is backing Tech to win and bring Indianapolis its first championship title in the I. H. S. A. A. This probablv wi'l be my last contrib, I but. like the Blue Devils. I'll be back next j season. Incidentally, three of the varsity I members will be back for Shortridge next j year. It will be our turn again to take I sectional honors, and get a crack at Mr. Ihsca’s crown. Meanwhile we hope Townsend and his mates will clean up the state within the next two Saturday nights.

Size Gives Yanks Edge Five Matches Scheduled for Tennis Program in Indianapolis. In their professional tennis tour of the United States, Big Bill Tilden and Ellsworth Vines have one advantage over Henri Cochet and Martin Plaa, of France, which the Frenchmen can not overcome. That is size. When the quartet of internationally famous net aces play here Sunday and Monday nights, Indianapolis tennis fans probable will be surprised at the difference in the appearance of the Yankee and French racquet wielders. One of the world's most colorful tennis stylists, Cochet is but 5 feet 6 inches tall, and weighs less than 140 pounds. Plaa is 5 feet 9 inches tall, and is slightly heavier than his countryman. On the other hand, both Tilden and Vines tower above the 6-foot mark, and both are more powerfully built than their opponents. The difference in size forces the Frenchmen to call on a repertory of clever strokes in an effort to offset the I Yankees’ greater power and more devastating services. The quartet will play five matches 1 in Indianapolis, Vines and Cochet I and Tilden and Plaa being paired | Sunday night in the Manufacturers’ j building at state fairgrounds, with j a doubles match in which the Yanks will oppose the Frenchmen conclud- i ing the evening’s bill. Monday night Tilden will meet | Cochet and Vines will play Plaa. The program will be at 8 on both ! nights. 9 Teams Enter Grappling Meet By Times Special BLOOMINGTON. Ind., March 8.—With all conference teams represented except Wisconsin, the annual Big Ten championship wrestling tournament will start tomorrow at Indiana university.

Three years ago Indiana university was host to the conference meet and won the title, which it will defend after four years’ domination. Indiana and Illinois are regarded as the main figures in the championship contest, with the Hoosiers the top-heavy favorites because of their undefeated campaign which included a 21 to 6 victory over the Illini at Champaign last weekend. Indiana will have two defending Big Ten champions in action in Olden Gillum, 165 pounder, and Pat Devine, 135 pounder, who also holds the national title in this weight. In addition several other Hoosiers have not suffered defeat during the current season. Baird Second in Score List Despite nine victories in ten starts in the Missouri Vallen conference cage race, Butler places only one man among the first five highscorers in the loop, and Creighton not only takes first position, but also holds third and fourth, according to conference figures released today. Engiebretson of Cheighton was the high individual scorer, averaging 8.8 points a game to amass 88 markers in conference tilts. Frank Baird of Butler, was second with 82 points, and Lomax and Schmidt of ! Creighton were third and fourth with 80 and 79, Vespectively. Martintoni of Washington, was fifth, with 71 points. Butler finished the loop campaign with nine victories and a single defeat for an average of .900, while Creighton’s seven wins and three defeats gave it second place with a .700 average.

STOP THAT COLD TODAY! Tomorrow May Make It Twice as Difficult to Relieve!

The time to stop a cold is before it gets started! A cold once rooted is a cold of danger! Don't waste your time and run the risk of serious complications by using makeshift methods. Remember, a cold is an internal infection and, as such, calls for internal treatment. A cold also calls for a COLD remedy and not a preparation good for a number of other things besides colds. Grove’s Laxative Bromo Quinine is what a cold requires. It is expressly a cold remedy. It is internal and direct. It is complete in effect. It does the four things necessary. First, it opens the bowels, gently, but thoroughly. Second, it combats the cold germs in the system and reduces the fever. Third, it relieves the headache and grippy
