~$Ij Uof , . a n. VoL. VIII. No. 48. ANN ARBOR, MICHIG dN, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1897. SIx PAGES.-PICE 50. MICHIGAN VS. CHICAGO. The Final Game in the Coliseum Tomorrow. Tomorrow Michigan and Chicago meet on the gridiron in annual battle and one of the greatest games of the year is looked for. The outcome of the game mans much to both teams. Defeat for Chicago means that team's being pushed down to third place or worse, while to Michigan a defeat tmeans as much.
