...athletic relations with Harvard. Last winter the track team opened the series of contests which stretches through the next three years when it invaded Ann Arbor to take a victory from the Wolverines in the last race of an indoor meet. Backed by last year's record and a string of eight straight victories over college teams this spring, the University nine has yet to meet a foe of unquestionably equal rank. Michigan comes east with the highest sport credentials...
...University baseball team will try to defeat the weather and the Bowdoin nine this afternoon on Soldiers Field. If conditions are favorable, the contest will start at 4 o'clock. Recent cancellations owing to rain have not granted Coach F.G. Mitchell sufficient opportunity to give his first string hurlers the necessary work-outs, and, with a difficult game against Michigan scheduled for Saturday, he plans to send J.N. Barbee '28 to the box this afternoon. F.B. Cutts '28, a likely candidate to share the pitching duties against the Wolverines with Barbee, may see service in today's encounter...

Burns is also leading his team in number of runs scored, tying with G. E. Donaghy '29 with 11 tallies. With six stolen bases and a total of 15 hits, he also heads the Harvard...

There was no denying that the story of two young men setting out to hoodwink their fiancees into infidelity was faint fodder for great music. Mozart, however, could put anything-a piece of string, a blot of ink-to music. So well did Miss Bori interpret Così Fan Tutte that critics raised a cry for more Mozart...
...Sullivan '28 and W. S. Hardie '30, other newcomers to the regular ranks, have had little difficulty so far in fathoming the deliveries of opposing pitchers. Sullivan, now stationed regularly at shortstop, is credited with an average of .357. Hardie, last year's first-string Freshman pitcher who is patrolling left field, has hit only four times in 14 appearances at the plate for a .285 mark, but three of his drives have been for three bases...
