Outside of the conference meet in March the quadrangular is the most important gathering of Big Ten Track men. Wisconsin, winner of the three pre- vious meets, will enter another strong team this year but will encounter some formidable opposition from other con- tenders. All of the competing teams boast of some clever performers both in the track and field events. Ohio and Wisconsin appear strong in | the relays although Chicago will enter several fast quartets of runners. The Buckeyes are headed by Captain John- ny Bevan, quarter miler; Larry Irwin, sprinter and hurdler; Herman Horn- stein and Bill Tooley, a pair of middle distance men and Dwight Brown, pole vaulter. Members of the Badger team who are certain of competing are Chuck McGinnis, high jumper, pole vaulter and hurdler; Robert Kreuz, sprinter; John Zola, long distance; George Schutt, miler and Ray Erickson, mid- dle distance. McGinnis is one of the most versatile performers in the con- ference and will be a dangerous com- petitor in all three of his events. Anton Burg, captain of the Maroons, will be a favorite in the high jump. He is one of the best high jumpers in collegiate competition besides being a capable pole vaulter. Jim Cusack, Wakefield Burke, Williams, Hegovic and Apitz will run the relays for Chi- cago. Coach Frank Hill has one of his best teams at Northwestern this year as demonstrated by the Purple's vic- tory over Notre Dame in a record dual meet. "Tiny" Lewis, Al Bagge, "Kit" Karsten and Aldo Nessler comprise a quartet of weight men who are capable of picking up a lot points. Lewis is also entered in the hurdles, an event in which he shows considerable prom- ise. Capt. Dar Furrey, Frank Reynolds, Phil Sparling, James Orchard, John Gorby, James Moring, Dick Johnson and George Mills, Bob Tannehill and Darrel Ware will handle the relay events for the Purple. Bill Droege- mueller, star pole vaulter, is certain to be one of the top notchers while Frank Rettig will be a formidable contender in the high jump.
