Injuries Prevalent Coach Nicholson is not too optim­ istic about the team this year and while he believes that his men will be able to defeat the Loyola team, the other meets are somewhat doubtful. The team this year consists mainly of inexperienced runners and the loss of three of last season's star perform­ ers. King, Farrell, and Duke wall probably be felt greatly. Injuries suf­ fered by two members of the team Avill also affect the success of the squad. Captain McFarlane will be un­ able to compete in the initial races because of a bad foot, but it is hoped that he will be able to return to com­ petition in time for the Indiana and Central conference meets. McFar­ lane is a valuable asset to the team and one of the most consistent rvm- ners it has had in some time. John Francis is also absent from practice because of an injury but Nick pre­ dicts that he will be in good condi­ tion to compete in all of the meets.
