I. U. Iron Men Take a Poke At Michigan

But It'll Be a Big Job To Take Track Title.

By STEVE SNIDER United Press Staff Correspondent

EVANSTON, 11, May 25. —Indiana’s iron men—three of the best at their trade— attempted today to smash Michigan's three-year reign as Big Ten track and field champions. Theyre facing overwhelming odds, as any who would buck Michigan must expect. The champions are loaded with power in every one of today’s 15 events. They qualified 19 men in yesterday's preliminaries, to 13 for the Hoosiers, and their superior balance indicates theyre on their way to the eighth cham pionship in 11 years. But the iron men have a chance. Big Archie Harris, Negro weight star, gave Indiana a new Conference discus record of 166 feet, 5% inches in the trials. He also was second among shot put qualifiers and may make it a double victory in these two events.

Kane Favored in Mile

Campbell Kane, sophomore sensation of the year, is the mile favorite and a strong possibility against champion Ed Buxton of Wisconsin in the half-mile. The third of the heavy duty boys—and he's the hardest worker—is Capt. Roy Cochran, who will defend his 220-yard low hurdles title, run the 100 and 220-vard dashes, compete in the broad jump and with the mile relay team. Strategy of Coach E. C. (Billy) Hayes of Indiana may backfire, however, and send the title back to Michigan. He withdrew Cochran

Ohioan Bad News

. To Parachutists CINCINNATI, O, May 25 (U. P.).—Ulric S. Vance, driver of a soft drink delivery truck. is a conscientious and expert rifleman in the Reserve Officers Training Corps. Reading about the landing of parachute troops in the European war, Vance began to wonder how many parachutists he could pick off if the emergency ever came, He arranged with an aviator acquaintance for a test. The pilot flew aloft with a dozen dummy soldiers hitched to small balloon parachutes. He released them at a height of 300 feet and Vance fired. Each of the dummies was punctured by at least one bullet when it struck the earth. “It was easy,” Vance said. “I can fire about 10 shots in one minute. With a little training, any normal person should do as well.” * He lives at Silverton, a Cincinnati suburb,
