Winter Sports Progressing in Big Ten : Frisco Finds Boxing Revival Difficult MICHIGAN’S HOCKEY WIN TRUE SIGN OF ADVANCE Puts an End to Minnesota’s String of Succes Other Colleges Also Sending Students into Competition in Great Outdoor: BY LAWRENCE PERRY. V YORK. March 23.—In the fact that the University of Michi- gan won the Western Conference’ hockey championship this breaking Minnesota’s string of cousecutive victorics, may be read ign of progress in the scheme of Winter sports in the big ten. a matter of fact, more conference colleges than Michigan are | and scientifically engaged in the creditable project of sending their students to competition in the great outdoors. While Wisconsin is 1l the ouly university in the big ten—or, in t, in the Middie West—which conducts all the Winter sports, this con- Jition will not exist within the next few years. Hlinois went in fo ing this Isewhera the field seems to lie pretty R fallow. The University of Chicago does for the [ not recognize Winter sports, although there is a lot od talent among the stu- dent body, andq ghe city is operating two rinks near the university where hoc is regulariy played and thousands skate. Northwestern University likewiss fails to show any interest in organized Winter sports, although opportunities in the way of ice are abundant There has been talk at Minnesota of organizing a Winter carnival based upon the famous affair at Dartmouth. If this were done the cause of competitive out- door exercise in Winter would be ma- terlally enhanced, and no great time would elapse before the Midwest section would be enthusing over contests such as thrill spectators in the New York Yew Ingland snow belt.

Playing the rubber of their three- game series, the Aloysius Big Flve at all times showed the way to the Corby aggregation. Unable to score from scrimmage until the start of the final period, the Bakers made an extremely poor showing against the snappy work of the Purple dribblers, the foul shooting of Edelstein being the only bright spot In Corby’s game. At half time the 1 s‘reeters were in the van, 16 to 5. Frederici proved the star of the occasion, eluding the opposing guards for point after point In the fourth quarter, after Capt. had registered Corby's tirst from the floor, the Bakers rallied and brought the score to 20 14, but the Aloy forwards got golng once more and Corby never threatened thereafter.
