affairs Special to The ree Press Ann Arbor Mich March There may possibly be 16 athletes in the Michigan invading force when It starts south one week from riday according to an announce ment made this afternoon If Graduate Director Bartelme travels with the team there will be but 15 players in the squad but If the entire burden of the business side of the trip is saddled on Stu dent Manager Sidney Steen then there will be room for 16 candi dates If the smaller number is taken the squad will probably in clude a brace of catchers rtve pitch ers an infield quartet an outfield trio and a utility man The Wolverine squad received a bodv punch this afternoon when Toni Soddy announced that he could no longer be a regular on the prac tice squad Pressure to slacken up on his athletic activities and in the future he will not be able to give even the small amount of time which he has heretofore spent in the gym nasium for the regular practices Soddy has been out but a small portion of the time and it is feared now that the further cutting down of his work will mean that he will not be in condition fur the southern trip How They Line up ow Newell first Brandci second Waiterhouse short and Warner third base constituted the infield Lundgren used this afternoon in practice Despite the fact that the veteran Brandell has been appear ing at this position regularly dur ing this week the critics do not be lieve he is the man who will be used by Lundgren at that post The wise ones are picking Smith for second sack with Brandeil in the outfield Warner suffered an injury to his hand this afternoon that may lav him up for a dav or two With Harrington's arm still in bad shape the Michigan squad is in a bad way for third sackers Roberts pitching arm is out of condition and it is doubtful if he will be able to do any real practice throwing until the middle of next week Whether this will mean that he is not to be in shape for the southern trip is the question which is bothering Lundgren right now Beat His Rival to the Punch and Shows Better Judgment i Throughout the Contest Mar gin Gained That Way BY HARRY BULLION WHILE there anythin about last battle bo j' tween Phil Bloom and Willie Grad well at the Windsor Athletic club that could be termed spectacular thereby differing considerably tram their initial meeting across tbo river it was an interesting contest and as a prophet Bloom is worthy of attention Still smarting under the beatln he took from Gradwell on the occa sion of their inaugural appearance in the employ of Eddie Glassco the Brooklyn lad returned this time de termined to reverse the verdict That he succeeded In his quest for retribution Is attested by the ver dict of every unbiased critic at the 1 ringside last night Bloom's margin ot de cisive nature yet It was ufflclent to impress the' rer mlnded Up to the sixth round there was Utile to choose between the boys but from there on barring the tenth whan Gradwell rallied temporarily Bloom asserted his superiority Every seat tn the house was filled when the boxers sought their cor ners and a lot more couldn't get in the place The club officials pr I dieted a larger crowd for last affair than that which viewed th llrst engagement and they figured I rightly i Bean Ont Hie AlibL I Bloom' performance bears out ta I a measure the alibi he advanoed when beaten before failure to do himself Justice

failure this time he can lay to lack of auccess la beating his rival to the puneh the singular feature of hto trttumph four weeks ago Conditions ware I Just reversed last night and it was seldom

BATCHELOR SAN ANTONIO Texas March George Cunningham had the double honor today of pitching the first full game of the season for the Tigers and achieving their Initial 1916 shutout the score read ing 3 to 0 The stocky youngster enhanced the good impression created by his steady work against the Giants last Saturday holding Bron chos to four hits The enemy had just one chance to score which came In the third inning Burch opening this chapter with a triple to right was equal to the test of nerve and skill imposed by having a man on third with nobody out however and the next three batters were helpless Only In the ninth inning did the Texans succeed in getting as many as two men on the sacks at the same time and but four of them reached second altogether The spitball was most deadly weapon as usual and he had so much on it that the minor leaguers considered themselves lucky every time they hit it out of the infield Detroit's Scores Come Hnrd Detroit had a hard time making its three runs There were hits enough nine of them Including three doubles and a home run but for the most part they were wasted Although the Tigers were always threatening it was not until th 0 sixth inning JJiat they did anything CrawforTs single and Boh home run to deep center accounted for a nalr In this period The third marker mater ialized in the ninth via double a choice that put Young on second jyhile George was being run to earth a passed at! and Stanage's long sacrifice fly The Jungaleers batted Harding who went the whole nine innings for San Antonio harder then the box score shows the local suburb anites having a very large after noon Numerous hard drives that threatened to become base hits were grabbed by the outer guard Young Bush and Heilman suffer ing In particular Sam Crawford looked more like i his regular self today than at any previous time this season taking bls normal wallop at the ball and getting a brisk double and single homer was a beautiful drive on which he easily made the circuit while the Lone Star gard eners pursued the ball in the vicin ity of tl clubhouse Heilman con tinued his slugging with a two bass biff and single and he lost another long one because the right fielder happened to be right in the path of a roaring liner Cunning ham kept up his reputation as a slugging pitcher by unwinding a base hit and a two bagger There was a lot of very sharp fielding In the game with Heilman and Young excelling for Detroit and Balenti Dunckel and Slmmong for San Antonio TOLD ABOUT THE TIGERS 0 2 0 4 1 tun innings SO Jackson 1 ft 4 I 0 Bnggan if

Correspondent San Antonio Tex March This was the Tigers first visit to San Antonio since 1910 the last year they trained here The veteran members of the club found a num ber of old friends ready to

first base man was formerly one of the Mich igan State league's leading sluggers He played a nice fielding game to day but did not get any hits This athlete was recommended to the Tigers several times while he was in the north but Mr scouts passed him up work today was the most encouraging done by any Detroit pitcher this spring and It now appears certain that he will have a regular job when the cham pionship season opens His control was almost perfect this afternoon not a man walking until the sev enth and only two in the game He came near terminating Harding's career by lamming him on the head with a fast one but after taking time out for repairs the Broncho pitcher resumed operations caught a particularly good game today nailing three fouls and throwing out a man who tried to advance

Thursday Evening Those who miesed the ity of seeing the famous Monarchs hockev aeotet on their previous visit here will be afforded another chance to see the three time Allan cup winners from western Canada in action against the Defroit Hockey club tonight and riday evening at the Arena rink The local management acting on numerous requests from Detroit hockey fans was successful in se curing a return engagement with the Canadians who are en route home after a 15 day trip through eastern Canada and the United states beating the Crescent A of New York 7 to 3 in its last game before coming here This team is the fastest aggre gation that ever has appeared on Arena lee its forward line is a won derful one with Dick Irwin rated the Ty Cobb of Canadian hockey playing at center the May broth

period Goaltcnd arquhar is the liveliest gualtend that has been seen here all season and a veritable stone wall in front of the visitors net Know How to However Detroit has tried out this aggregation and held it to three goals on the previous visit with a patched line up due to the injury to Rover Black This time the team will be the best that De troit has presented all season with Black back on the job the regular defense working and the forward line strengthened by the presence of Jack Skelly who played a fine game against the Monarchs in Blacks position at right wing It will be a much stronger team and Captain Johnson predicts a victory in at least one of the games and hopes to take the series by winding two straight Every Detroit player is in fine fettle for the games and some real puck chasing is bound to re sult Irwin who wae injured after the first 15 minutes of play In the previous encounter agaJn is in shape to show his best work and has been startling the hockey na
