HEAVY VOTING CONTINUES
ON CONFERENCE QUESTION
Votes numbering more than 1,000
were registered in the second day of
the Conference vote yesterday. The
total for the first two days of the vote
has nearly reached 2,000, and it is be-;
sieved by those in charge that nearly
all students who have not already vot-
ed will participate in the final polling
today.
Among yesterday's votes there were
few mistakes, the rules having been
carefully followed in nearly all cases.
Although most of the ballots were by
students, a representative number of
faculty men tallied their opinions. Al-
so many alumni took advantage of the
balloting.
AItheughli the vote was especially
heavy at the athletic association where
students were standing in line for
reats to t.e lPennsylvania game, a rep-
resentative vote was cast in all of the
ballot boxes on the campus. The vote
was heavy from the women of the uni-
versity and from the junior class a
large vote was recorded.
Among the alumni association votes
received( yesterday are the following:
Seattle, Wlashin gton ; Gary, Indiana;
Fort Wayc. Indiana ;Charlvoix,
Sich Esanaba, Mich. Bufalo, New
X ork, Ashtahbla, Ohio; and manistie,
Alich.

"On.defense Syracuse played thre
backs so far behind the line of scrim-
mage that they failed to be of any us
in backing up the line," said the coach
in discussing the Methodist game
"With the defense drawn back, Mich-
igan constantly gained at the line
plunging game, and did not need to
resort to forward passing.
"At Vanderbilt conditions were re-
versed. The Vanderbilt defense was
close to the line of scrimmage, fear-
ing our line plunging ability, and con-
sequently Michigan resorted to for-
ward passes with success, as there was
only one instead of three men playing
back. A team's tactics on offense
necessarily depends on the system of
offense its, opponents adopts."

DOUGLAS DRIVES ALL FRESH
New Plays Are (ive n to Yearlings in
Prepara1ion of .lma ame.
Coach Douglas gave his charges sev-
eral new plays yesterday and in addi-
tion drove his men through the hard-
est practice of the season.
In past games the youngsters have
had such easy going they have failed
to play at their best. The interference
especially has been exceedingly rag-
ged in practice, and Coach Douglas is
spending no little time in correcting
this fault.
Douglas reprimanded his squad se-
verely in yesterday's practice, pointing
out that the coming Alma game would
be far different from the previous con-
tests, and intimating that any individ-
ual "soldiering" this week would re-
sult in an immediate shift in the line-
up. There are several men on the
squad who have not had 'much of a
chance in the earlier games, although
they have worked hard all season, and
the coach would have no difficulty in
filling vacancies on his team.

- Michigan sends another football
team into the east for a big game on
- hostile ground, and Michigan men are
offered another opportunity to spur
their representatives on to their ut-
termost efforts. The team will leave
Thursday night, at 9:30 o'clock from
the Michigan Central depot, and plans
are taking form to give the players
a send-off that will be a goad to vic-
tory against the Cornellians.
It is practically assured that the
band will be out on this occasion to
add their quota to the spirit-making,
and with the background of a thousand
or so loud-voiced rooters, the purpose
of the evening should be effected. Some
talk has arisen concerning the un-
willingness of the band to turn out at
such times unless they were to receive
the trip to the big football game each
year. But even if the instigators of
the "send the band" movement fail,
and the band is forced to remain at
home, they will probably be out in
force for the Thursday night leave-
taking.
"Hap" Haff will be down with the
team to organize the cheering, and
show off the vocal efforts of the crowd
to the best advantage. It has seemed
to follow in the past that the Michi-
gan teams fight best when they are
charged heaviest with the spirit of
their college mates. This is the lead-
ing chance for the loyal element of the
university to help make sure of a
Michigan victory over the Red team.

the approaching struggle with Cornell.
The committee in charge of the spe-
cial train arrangements blaim to be
making excellent progress, having al-
ready signed up more than enough
men to insure the success of the proj-
ect, and the numbers are expected to
be double by noon today.
The men who do not avail themselv-
es of the advantage offered by the spe-,
cial train will of necessity suffer the
inconvenience of either leaving Itha-
ca Saturday night at 6:30 o'clock or
remain in that city over Sunday. The
special, however, offers a medium be-
tween these two extremes by allowing
the rooters to start back Saturday
night at 10:00 o'clock, in that way
giving the men a chance to witness any
celebrations that may take place in
the evening.
The railroad authorities require that
a certain sum be in their hands by

count of this fact it is imperative that
all who intend to make the trip on

amount of their fare at the Michigan
