Because the University of, Michigan Daily and the student body poured no fire into the rear of their own side. The present contro- versy, would have been settled long ago if Stagg and his co-laborers had not felt from the disaffection in the Michigan camp that we would be forc- ed to accept their terms in the long run. At another time when the affairs were in their infancy in the Western Conference, Mr. Stagg proposed that all admissions should be limited to fifty cents. In the case of Michigan, it has been possible to build up Ferry field because its friends were willing to pay from one to two dollars per ticket to W-elp the cause along. It has been no hardship to thousands of its friends and the result has been a splendid" athletic stadium with facili- ties probably not equaled by any other college in this country. I Mr. Staggs case sundry millionaires fur- nished what was required and, of course, it .has been long understood that when there was a deficit at the end of the year, Mr. John D. Rockefeller kindly sent up a check to make up the deficit. Where would Michigan have been under that arrangement? Cer- tainly without its present magnificent field, and not one of the men who has helped in developing the field is in favor of a return to the Conference, except with honor. Again, one of the present obstacles to returning is the fact that Michigan is likely to be prevented from playing outside of the Conference. We are nearer to Pennsylvania than we are to Minnesota. We played Cornell be- fore Chicago University was organiz- ed. Why should te cast off our old friends? When this proposition is analyzed it is the mest outrageous one that has been conceived by the Con- ference leaders, and how any Michigan man will agree to lie down and be run over in this fashion is a thing hard to understand. Were the present influ- ences at work in the time when Stagg made his first proposition, we would now be playing all games on Marshall field at Chicago and taking 20 per cent of the gate receipts for our share. It is objected that we are going to the east. Well, take down your Uni- versity calendar and note where your students come from. Next to Michigan and Ohio comes New York State, with nearly 400, close behind comes Penn- sylvania with 262. New York has over 9,000,000 population; Pennsylva- nia more than 8,000,000. These two states have a population nearly equal to the whole territory west of the Mis- sissippi river. Why should we not go east? The largest cash gift to the uni- versity was one of $160,000 by a lady from New York State. It is under- stood that the gift of a woman's dor- mitory, to cost probably $200,000, to be erected soon, is a gift by a citizen of New York City. The Students Christian Association is presently to The Overcoat Question You can't dodge it Don't shiver and snuffle Cover up now build a new building. The first gift toward it was a check for $10,000 by a merchant in New York City. Not mere- ly is the population greater in the east; but the wealth lies in the east. Why should we not go that way? We deprecate deeply the position of the University of Michigan Daily, which just now is forming student public opinion. This is most unfortu- nate since it is based on no knowledge of the actual facts. The writer be- lieves that the policy of the U. of M. Daily as at present conducted is per- icious in divers ways, not merely with regard to athletics. We have not the honor of the acquaintance of Judge Murfin, but we know he has toiled in season and out, for the good of Mich- igan athletics, and it seems a burning shame that any one connected with any activity of the University of Mich- igan should be willing to neutralize and render ineffective his good work by selling out his Alma Mater for a mess of pottage.

In the past these rules were on the books. They were regarded as mis- takes and they were wiped off the books. Would it be natural or logical for the Conference universities to re- enact legislation that already has been admitted to be wrong? Would you as a rational human being delib- erately repeat a mistake? Of course the Conference might do this. And of course the world might come to an end today. THE CONFERENCE REPRESENTA- TIVES. What kind of men do you think are in control of the Conference? Men with brains, men with an acute sense of honor. Not athletic experts always, but men who are intensely in- terested in amateur college sports. A good cirtic does not necessarily have to be a great writer, a great mu- sician, a great actor or a great foot- ball player. Honesty, brains, and keen enthusi- asm and appreciation are absolutely necessary to the critic, however. He must appreciate technique, but he need not be able to perform perfectly him- 'self. The Conference representatives are critics. They are men who stand high in the educational centers of the west. They are appointed to regulate the western college sports, not to abolish them. Regulation is anything but abo- lition. Regulation is a tonic. Are these men, big in every other walk of life, but small and petty in their relation to college sports? Are not their reputations and honors at stake? The entire west is watching every move they make. Can they af- ford to be mean? That is why we say that Michigan has not been legislated against and why she will not be legislated against in the future. We trust these men. DEAN BATES CONTRIBUTES TO NEW A31ERICN LAW REVIEW.

The track man is always in condition, and this should not interefere with his per- formance, as he has been running with the regulars at signal drill all the week. Hughitt's wrist kept him on the side lines during the scrimmage, and Traphagen's bunged up legs ex- cused him..
