Hitherto it has been defense that has bothered the Wol- ne enthusiasts but yesterday it. the offense. Thomson's line bucks Craig's open field running were only plays on which Michiganl Id gain ground with the exception a few trick plays. Only one of Liigan's forward passes met with ess and this line of open playing ar from being even mechanicallyl ect. The line .did not charge as r should 'and while one can truth- y say that they played good games, as seldom that the backs found a waiting for them when they got lie line. It may'have been due to fact that South Dakota had 'a line1 ,eavy veterans but it is neverthe- true that the Michigan line was layed and this was the cause of iigan's failure in line bucking. rhaps the greatest fault in Mich-i 's playing was in the almost utterI of interference. Time and time n the Wolverine backs would startc a beautiful interference ahead ofr n only to have it utterly disinte- e at the first appearance of onef e Coyotes. Craig and Boyle play- d xcellent games and their gainsa due entirely to their individualo 'ts and not to their team mates.

It has been stated earlier in this ac- count that Mvichigan did not honestly deserve to win and taking all fact, into consideration it is safe to reiterate it. Taking all the breaks of the game Michigan had the better of the ever present luck and'this aided not a little. But at the same time there is no deiy- ing the fact that as a whole Michigan outplayed the Coyotes. They gained more ground than the westerners, they made first down oftener, and they kept the Coyotes continually on the defens- ive. On straight statistics Michigan had far the better of the argument and on this ground deserved its victory. The defense of the Wolverines with the exception of stopping forward pass plays, wassuperior to Dakota's and made that team exhaust its repertoire of plays. As a matter of straight tech- nical football, Michigan earned its vic- tory, but as a matter of the game, lMfichigan was very lucky. Thomson and Craig Star. To pick any individual stars is a hard matter as the two teams were rather evenly matched and the efforts of the men were perhaps decreased a little to the spectator. But there are two of the Wolverines who stand forth prominently as the stars of the Michi- gan tearn. Captain Thomson played the best game of football he has shown this year and his individual work! stands forth on account of his line bucking and his punting. He easily outpunted Ferguson and his kicks drove the Coyotes far back into their territory time and again. "Bottles" was the only back who could gain through the line and he hit it with terrific force. His three plunges when he. went over for the touchdown were really spectacular as he had to plunge straight into the mass with only his own motive power. "Jimmy" Craig s the other Wolverine who starred and his open field running from fake kick formations and his defensive work were features of the game. His runs were practically without inter- ference and it was only his speed and dodging ability that enabled him to make the gains he did. Carpell and Torbet played well at ends and Boyle proved to be a good half if he could get the neces- sary interference. The line played good ball but was up against a stone wall and made its efforts look puny. rhe fumbling of the Michigan backs was present again and caused much listress and it is evident that Michigan nust learn to hang on to the ball. Sheeks, Imlay, and Ferguson, the backfield on the Coyotes were the in- dividual stars of the western team and played grand football. Sheeks' open field running and end running was a brilliant display and with a weaker team than Michigan he would .ave won the game single handed.

ANGELL' Prof W. A. Frayer Will Trace the torical Background the War. Student interest over the Balkan war will express itself at a mass meet- ing to be held at the Michigan Union, Monday night at 7:30 o'clock. Dr. James B. Angell will be the principal speaker and will talk on "The Balkan' Situation. His experience as minister to Turkey in 1897-8 makes him' espe- cially qualified to speak on the subject. His talk will deal in a reminiscent way with the customs and manners of the Turkish, people. "A Historical Background" will be' the title of an address to be delivered by Prof. W. A. Frayer. This will be followed by a speech on "The Present Situation and America's Opportunity," by Dr. Hampartzoon der Garabedian, '09M, of Detroit, and A. J. Cumjian, '14, will give an account of the Armenian situation. The interest manifested on the cam- pus over the Balkan situation is ex- pected to cause a large attendance at the Union tomorrow night, for not only are the foreign students agitated, but a large percentage of the Ameri- can students are showing a keen in- terest in the trouble.

Last night when Michigan football fans were rejoicing over the results of the Michigan-South Dakota game, they didn't realize that little air vibrations far above their heads were carrying the news of the game to the Atlantic coast. A 50 word report of the con- test was sent to Annapolis by wire- less at the special request of Lieut. First Year Men Come Back and Defeat The Aggie Yearlings 6-0-. TEAMS WERE EVENLY MATCHED-. (Detroit Free Press Service.) LANSING, MICI1., Nov. 2.-Coming back in great style against a team that proved to pe the hardest tackled so far, the Michigan freshmen gained their first victory today, and, 6 and 0 are the mystical numerals that spell defeat for the yearlings of the Michigan Aggies. The two freshmen squads were as evenly matched as a pair of light- weights weighing in for a bout and the Ann Arbor youngsters after vain- ly seeking for a way to decide the contest finally picked a long and lengthy sprint and elected Meade for the race. On a fake punt formation in the third quarter, the first year half- back started on the 50 yard line and ran, squirmed and stiff-armed his way to the goal of the embryonic farm- ers. James, the Michigan tackle, showed the Lansing players and devotees some new and up to date methods of stop- ping the man with the ball and his tackling minimized the gains of the up-state freshmen to a great extent. Cochran at center made a way for himself through the opposing line and time after time broke the M. A. C. plays as they were forming, while Rhoem both on offense and defense, proved valuable for the visitors by his tack- Continued on page 6.) * * * * * * * * SAMPLE BALLOT. -o- I think that the expen sending the band on its a trip should be borne by st subscription.

MANY OLD-GRADS BACK FOR GAME Several hundred "old grads" went back to their homes last night with the satisfaction of having seen a Mich- igan team once again put to the test and again emerging victorious. As usu- al,the Michigan Union held open house, and the capacity of the cafe of that or- ganization was taxed to the utmost. Among those returning for the con- test were: Lucius Van Slyke, '82, "Shorty" Mc- Millan, '13, "Chub" Good, '12, "Herb" Trix, '12, "Pip" Titus, '11, ."Larry" Learmonth, '12E, Maurice McMahon,, '12, "Jack" Enzenroth, '10, "Chet" Taft, '10L, Mason Rumney, '08E, Chas. DuCharme, '06, Clark Hyatt, '05, "Bill" Hueston, '10, Frank Bennett, '05L, Gor- don Kingsbury, '11, Harvey Scott, '09, "Herb" Carrow, '02, Ralph Craig, '11, Kenneth Arthur, '10, "Dave" Goodyear, '12, Carl Green, '10, "Bill" Restrick, '12, Howard Porter, '11, G. Greenfelder, '12, "Runt" Stock, '12, Judge H. A. Mandell, '83. Regent Bulckley of Detroit also at- tended the game.a Hollis M. Cooley, U. S. N., son of Dean Mortimer E. Cooley of the engineering department.. The report was dispatched from the university wireless station, which has proven itself to be more than an ex- periment, having recently received messages from different points on the Atlantic coast and from ships on the gulf of Mexico. The report of the game was sent directly to Annapolis, no relays being employed for the whole 800 miles. If the dispatch was satis- factorily received reports of a similar nature will be sent in the future. UNION TO PRESENT MUSICAL PROGRAM THIS AFTERNOON This afternoon's program at the Un- ion promises to be one of the most novel that that organization has yet offered to its members. "Bob" Bazley, '11E, well known on the campus for his work in the various~ operas and minstrel shows, will entertain with several vocal selections. Albert Lacie, '15L, will play the latest "rags" with variations. "OUTLOOK" PRINTS STORY ON DUCK HUNTING BY HAINES, '09. The last issue of The Outlook con- tained a number of stories and illus- trated essays. Among these was a hunting story called "The Doctrine of the Lean Bag," by Donal Hamilton Haines, '09. An entertaining account of the fascination of duck hunting aside from mere killing is cleverly told. The author deplores the lust of the game hog, but believes a hunter should kill a few birds while he is enjoying the other phases of the sport. view that the question to be conside ed "tomorrow morning by'referendu is of the utmost significance .
