He. left Ann Arbor Sunday morning seemingly in the best of health, and the report that his death was due to undue excitementf at the game is without foundation. Mr. Forbes was a member of the Zeta Psi fraternity and one of the prominent men of his class in the uni- versity. He was the head of the Rock- ford Malleable Iron Co., and also pres- ident of the People's Bank and Trust Company of Rockford.

The usual secret practice at Ferry Field was the order yesterday after- noon, but there was a little diversity in the matter of scrimmage. Despite the lateness of the season the drill was a long and tedious one, and the lights had been burning for some time before the order was given out to quit for the day. The hard practices lend color to the opinion that Nebraska is going to be a harder proposition than some people expect, and Yost is fully aware of that fact. Those Cornhuskers are about the best team in the west- ern part of the big valley, and it is not going to be a walkaway for Michigan to take their measure. All the regulars were in the scrim- mage with the exception of Pontius and Wells. The All American man is still hobbling about on crutches but shows improvement, and expects to get into the battle next Saturday. There is a little matter of sentiment that demands that Stan be in that game. The big half started his football career in that part of the country and if possible he' wants to end it there. So it's a safe bet that if it is at all possible he will' be in the lineup. The continued ab- sence of Pontius from scrimmage, seems to indicate that he is not yet in "This country is being run by a coterie of petty grafters who have never earn- ed an honest dollar in their lives," said T. W. Craig, a mmebers of the Payne-Webber Co., Stock Brokers, of Detroit, in an address delivered before the Commerce Club last night. Mr. Craig is a firm believer in the principle: of reciprocity. He also said that the only way in which we will be able to get enough wheat for our cons'umption in the future is to aid in the develop- ment of the Canadian Northwest. BARBOUR GYM WILL. HARBOR "BIG SHOW" Women's League Will Stage Wonderful 3 Ring Produc- tion with all the Stunts PRESS AGENT IS SOME POET, Sawdust, cages, lemonade stains and peanut shucks will transform Barbour gymnasium into a real "coicus" ground Friday afternoon when the Women's league will stage a regular three ring entertainment with all the accompanying features of a big tent show. Dainty misses disguised as ferocious animals will growl at the spectators from their cages while spangled clowns will play all the pranks of the profession upon the more gullible guests. There will be amusements of every kind that follow with a circus and the entire performance will be put on and acted by the league. "One question every woman asks and longs to know the answer, ' She asks the same, tho' she be queen;. Or college girl, or dancer. " What can it be that man has learn- ed, And women never even guessed?" They weep, they wail, they tear their hair, From morn to night they'll get no rest- Unless they- Come to the Women's league circus and learn, "What every man knows." This is the press agent's advance up. But it is hardly customary either in a court of law or of public opinion to ask a man or a school to "take the stand" because a newspaper writer publishes an accusation concerning a thing of three years' standing. It may be well to "consider our guests before we invite them," but it is not quite us- ual, according to the canons of ordi- nary hospitality, to demand of our in- vited guests that they answer the charges of gossip, If behind its half veiled accusations' and its insinuations, the Daily has any real and honest purpose, let it say so. If it has proofs of dlirty playing by Penn in recent games, why not show them? If it believes that our rela- tions with Penn are not advantageous," that our place is back in the Western Conference, why not say so frankly? To most of us, it is as vital, that the written expression of college opinion (of which it is generally presumed the Daily is the organ) should be as clean and open as our varsity athletics. S. W.

(The Daily assumes no responsibility for sentiments expressed in con- munications.) Editor, The Michigan Daily:- It may be just to the living to speak bad as well as good of the dead, but it is hardly wise or politic to resurrect issues buried three years. I speak of the editorial in Tuesday's Michigan Daily. What pertinency to our pres- ent relation with Penn has it? After three hard fought games, one a tie and the other two victories, with no pro- tests from players or spectators con cerning foul play, is it the act of a sportsman for Michigan to charge its opponent with an incident such as the Schultz affair, even if the charge is true?
