PRICE FIVE ITY REST ES FORM OF GNAL DRILL Every Man Except Pontits Reported in Good Condition; Torbet Appears in Fullback . Position. I'UXTIN(C PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE SOLVED IN JIUGHITT Selilf Teaches Reserves Plays Used by Cornellians Against Harvard. Coach Yost gave the Wolverine Var- sity its regular Monday rest cure yes-. terday afternoon through the medium of a hard two-hour drill on Ferry field. ihe grind was nothing more than a signal drill but it was long after dark before the coach let his men trot away to the field house. Every man save Pontius was out for practice and all reported in good con- dition after Saturday's victory. Trap- hagen wore a huge bandage over his left ear, because of a bursted blood vessel. The injury is not considerid serious, however, and it is expected the big guard will be ready to play on Saturday. Torbet appeared at fullback in the drill yesterday afternoon. The former end kept cut of all forward pass play as his muscles are still too sore to al- low effective tossing. Bushnell did most of the heaving for the team from his post at quarterback. Tommy Hughitt, Yost's latest find as a punter, repeated some of his Sat- urday surprises by getting off all kinds of long spirals in practice yesterday., Hughitt is proving by far the most effective and the safest kicker in the Wolverine squad and the coach is con- fident that one of his difficult prob- lems has been solved. "Honk" Conklin, captain of the Wol- verines in 1911 reported at Ferry field yesterday afternoon with the news' that when the team returns from Itha- ca next week he will be on hand tot lend his help in preparing the eleven (Continued on page 4.)1 (Special to The Michigan Daily) SYRACUSE, N. Y., Nov. 3.- "If the Varsity football team had not gone to the theatre at De- troit and otherwise violated training rules on the eve of the Michigan game, the result Sat- urday would have been differ- ent," declared Chancellor James R. Day at chapel today, accord- ing to C. B. Bahn of the Syra- cuso Journal. The chancellor held that the men lost rest needed to show to their best ability against . the Wolverines, and were therefore not in the best physical condi- tion. * * * * *. * * * * * * HEAVY POLLING MARKS FIRST' DAY OF CONFERENCE VOTE :x CHANGES IN INFIRMARY. * 1.

Although not all of the coupons were counted last night, it is estimated that nearly 900 students registered their opinions. The voting will continue today and to- morrow and those in charge believe- that the voting will be much heavier than yesterday. Several mistakes were found among the votes turned in and all voters should read the directions before poll- ing. The vote was especially heavy at the athletic association on account of the sale of seats for the Pennsylva- nia game. Yesterday's balloting indicates a light vote among the faculty with vot- ing especially heavy among the sen- iors who polled at the athletic associ- ation while waiting for seat reserva- tici. The vote will close at 5:00 o'clock tomorrow night and no results will be announced until the final bal- lots have been cast. The question has been taken up by various alumni associations and ans- wers have already been received from nearly half. In Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo a vote is being taken by a daily new-ipaper. Among the repre- sentativo organizations which have voted arc New York, Los Angeles, Cal., Denver, Colo., St. Paul, Minn.; Schen- ectady, N. Y., South Bend, Ind., Pon- tiac, Mich., Omaha, Nebraska, El Reno. Oklahoma, and Port Huron, Michigan. * * * * * * * * * * SEND BAND TO HELP THE TEAR SLOGAN ThOD Fifty Men From Every Departmen Canvass Campus to laise Money to Send Band to Cornell 4,000 TAQS AT TWENTY CENTS MUST RE SOLD IF BAND 0 Trip Not For Payment For Serv But to Show Team Revlved Michigan Spirit Of nearly 2,000 lockers at Waterman gym, less than 150 remain unassign- ed.

NEW PLAN TO PICK CLASS CHAMPIONS ALL-FRESH HAVE H.ARD WEEK AHEAD Game With Alma (ollege on Saturday Regarded as Hardest on Schedule. VEA.RLING LINEUP UNCHAN(6D. Though Coach Douglas gave his squad of All-Fresh players a light work-out yesterday afternoon, the program for the remainder of the week is a severe one, as Saturday's game with Alma college is regarded as the hardest of the schedule. Last year the Presbyterians trim- med the yearlings 6 to 0 in the young- sters' first game of the season. This year the two teams are even more closely matched according to their performance against Adrian college on successive Saturdays. Two weeks ago the All-Fresh romp- ed through the Adrian aggregation for a 69 to 0 count. Last Saturday the Adrian team journeyed to Alma and were drubbed 66 to 0. No changes are-contemplated in the lineup of the yearlings, barring the possibility of Dunn starting at left end. Since C. Skiner was injured early in the season Douglas has had difficulty in picking a man for this extremity pe- sition.I WAITERS PLAN CAMPAIGN FOR BETTER FARE ,,wo Thousand ('irculars.

They outlined a new plan. The winners of the department. championship will play a series of games, and by the elimination method swill decide the campus champions. The second teams of the four depart- ments will also engage in an elimina- tion contest, the winner of which will play the losers in the first string teams in order. This system gives the chance to one second team of getting numerals, as there are four sets 'to be given out and the winner of the second aggre- gations by defeating the losers in a (Continued on page 4.) Send the band to help the team. Fifty men, representing practically every department and class in the university, are canvassing the cam- pus today in an effort to raise money to send the band to Cirnell. The cam- paign is not being conducted in order to afford the band a trip in payment for their services, but it is an out- growth of the revived Michigan spirit -another attempt to show the team a loyal support. Four thousand tags are on sale, and in order to raise the necessary money they must bring an average price of 20 cents. It is expected by those in charge that enough money will be raised today to meet the necessary expenses, but if not it is intended that the sale last over until Wednesday. The present band is on an entirely reorganized basis. All finances are now taken care of by a member of the faculty, and control is centered in one man, thus obviating the troubles that have vexed the organization in the past, All members now playing with the new band association have been picked after a series of tryouts con- ducted with the most sincere attempts at fairness. The men are now forced to attend rehearsals and turnouts, or to suffer a fine for each unexcused delinquency. New uniforms have been provided for the management, and ten- tative plans have been made for out- fitting the men with capes and white gloves. This arrangement will be impossi- ble, however, unless the band is used for other university functions outside (Continued on page 4.) DISTANCE MEN RUN TICKET SALE FOR PENN GAME LARGE Half a dozen shivering freshmen spent Sunday night in front of the ath- letic office in order to secure places in the line for the senior sale of Penn tickets yesterday. Most of the faith- ful were relieved by relays, and the "waiters" comforted themselves as best they could by means of a camp fire., A long line of seniors was on hand both yesterday morning and afternoon, and practically every man bought his full quota of tickets. JIuniors will be given an opportunity to secure their reservations today, and any senior who failed to secure tick- ets yesterday may also purchase tick- ets today. Sophomores will be accom- modated Wednesday, and freshmen Thursday. Mail orders for tickets are coming in at the athletic office in greater num- bers than ever before at so early a date, and the management expects1 that the Ferry field record of attend- ance, previously set at the Quaker game in 1907, will be broken this fall. ['he faculty of the rhetoric depart- ment has requested the line to form' to the south of the athletic office, as the disturbances caused by calls of1 "Hat!" at passing freshmen .seriously1 interfere with classes in west hall. t EIIITORIAL CoMMENT. USELESS WORRY. We are wondering what point our opponents have in mind. Really, isn't it a useless waste of time. The Michigan Daily petitions will include both sides and submit the re- sults to the Regents. We discarded the very methods that the antis are now using as open to all sorts of abuses. Fictitious names and -duplications are evident evils. But aside from this it seems pure folly to get out other petitions. The Michigan Daily votes are to be collect- ed, accepted and counted by a bal- anced board. ARE YOU IN DOUBT? If you are still in doubt regarding what is what in this Conference dis- cussion, we can do no better than re- fer you to the article that was written by Professor Brumm in Sunday's is- sue of The Michigan Daily. it represents, an analytical treat- mnt.

The scheme has met with the general ap- proval of the Michigan Union, the University health service and the Uni- versity Y. M. C. A. The circular condemns the envir- onment of the average boarding lous- es, the unsanitary kitchens, the cold draughty rooms in which the working students have to eat, and the unwhole- some food which they are compelled to eat. The students, according to the circulars, work in some places where they are obliged to work overtime without extra pay, to eat "scraps" and "come backs" on dirty tables, without dessert, and to work four or five hours for their board Cases have been reported that stu- dents were compelled to eat on tables covered with dirty, oil-cloth under: (Continued on page 4.)

Arrangements have already been made with the railroad authorities whereby a special rate of $16.89 round trip has been promised on the provis- ion that at least 75 men take the trip. The band and scrubs will furnish 50 of this number and the remainder must of necessity be from the student body at large. The number, however, is not limited and the athletic author- ities desire that as many men a pos- (Continued on. page 4.) HONORARY SOCIETIES TO BE DISCUSSED) AT UNION DINNER Proi. It. N.
