LOYALTY TO MICHIGAN IS CARTOONS A FEATT City Official Makes First Error in Athletic Prophecies. One Isaac Reynolds, assistant to the clerk of the city of Ann Arbor, is stilly an unquestioned authority in down- town quarters in the art of prophecy- ing athletic scores. This still holds in spite of the fact that sundry other members of the city staff thought they had him cornered on the outcome of the Penn game last Saturday. It seems that way back last summer, Mr. Reynolds started reading sporting extras while in Dreamland long be- fore the sporting editor knew that any certain game was to be played. And it came to pass that what Mr. Reynolds dreamed turned out to be true. Phila- delphia won the world's championship by annexing the sixth game. And tb e game ended with the very score that he prophet said it would. He said that Michigan would win from Vanderbilt, { to 8, that Syracuse would tie the Wo- verines, 6 to 6, and that Cornell would take Michigan into camp, 6 to 0. But what Mr. Reynolds predictedj about the Penn game was to the effect that Michigan would carry away the '.ong end of a 11 to 6 score. And the prophet gets around that neatly. "Simply the fault of the sand-man," he says. "Got the blamed 9 up-side down. I'm not to blame for that."

Harrison, editor of the "Lincoln Capitol," who was here last week end in the interests of the LaFollette pres- idential boom," and the people will flock to the biggest game in the his- tory of Lincoln next Saturday from miles around. We all consider it an honor for Michigan to consent to meet us, and we will tender her Varsity one of the greatest receptions ever given any university team.
