Regulars and Cohn For Secure Only Two >uchdowns TOMORROW TICKET SALES FOR SATURDAY CONTEST ATTAIN RECORD DAY Yesterday was a record day for the sale of tickets to the Michigan-Cornell football game, more seats being dis- posed of to outsiders than on any day thus far. In addition, all the student tickets were mailed out. Athletic association authorities esti- mate that more than 12,000 tickets have been sold, but due to the enlarged capacity of the stands, several thous- and good seats are yet procurable. From present indications, it is prob- able that nearly as large a crowd as the record-breaker last Saturday, will witness the contest this week. MUA.C.

Shulters, instructor in French, left his room last Tuesday, and it seemed until Saturday, that he had completely disappeared without leav- ing a trace behind him. Dean J. R. Effinger instituted an investigation, Friday, to find out what had happened to the missing man, but was complete- ly at a loss until Saturday night, when Prof. M. Levi called him up to tell him of a letter received from the absent instructor. Mr. Shulters had written a notehto Professor Levi when he left, but the latter had dismissed the matter asrof. slight importance, thinking that Mr. Shulters would be absent for only a few days. Saturday he wrote from his home in Bristol, N. Y., and explain- eds that he would be unable to return to the university oi account of . ill health. Mr. Shulter.s came to the university at the beginning of the year, after be- ing an instructor at the University of Illinois last year. Other members of the French department will take charge of his classes. CAMPUS ECONOMISTS ATTEND BIG CONVENTION IN CHICAGO Prof. Leo I. Sharfman and Prof. Dav- id Friday will go to Chicago tomorrow, to attend a convention of the Western Economic Society. The society will hold a conference on American Rail- way Problems at Hotel Sherman, on November 12, 13 and 14. Professor Friday will head the discussion of a paper, given by Prof. Thomas Adams on, "Valuation of Public Service Cor- porations for Purposes of Taxation." ADAMS FAMILY RETURNS TO ANN ARBOR FROM FAR ORIENT Prof. Henry C. Adams and family, who have been in China for the last year, returned to Ann Arbor Saturday. Professor Adams was called to China a year ago by the government to devise an accounting system for the railroads which they had taken over. He will resume his teaching in the political economy department next semester. TO SHIFT 1IT. UNION CAME ALSO Stories from Lansing, to the effect that the Farmers will not play Michi- gan again unless they can get a later date on the Wolverine schedule, are causing considerable amusement for the local athletic authorities. The Ag- gie press agents are complaining that they lost the Nebraska game on ac- count of the tussle with the Wolver- ines the week before. If the Capiiol city faction thinks it can replace Penn, Harvard, Cornell, or even Syracuse, on the Michigan sched- ule, it is mistaken, according to the local management. As the .Lansing men are also talking about dropping Mt. Union, which gave them such a bad scare, the talk of not playing Michigan is given the laugh by the Wolverine mentors. Mihigan would find no trouble in listing another pre- liminary game, whereas the Aggies would be minus their biggest one, M. A. C., instead of getting a better place on the Michigan scledule, will probably have to consent to even less advantageous terms. Heretofore, the Varsity has played one game in four at Lansing, but since the Wolverines now have so many eastern alliances with alternating games. Michigan will prob- ably now insist on playing all her pre- liminary games in the Ferry field sta- dium. SENIORS HAVE GET-TOGETHER TO OUTLINE CLASS POLICIES First Smoker of Year Takes Place at Union Tonight; Cider and Doughnuts Feature Senior lits will hold their first social "get-together" smoker at the Union at 7:30 o'clock tonight. The main purpose of the smoker will be to discuss the policy of the class, and to outline plans for the year. Pres- ident Harry G. Gault will make a short talk, and Chase B. Sikes, '16, will sing. Cider and doughnuts will be served, and the usual smokes will be provided. Tickets can be procured at the door, or from the following men: Howard i SPHINX INITIATION AROUSES CURIOSITY ON STATE STREET Initiations to ten neophytes were administered last night by the Sphinx, literary junior campus society. The ceremony, which took place In the open, attracted a large crowd which enjoyed the different tricks inflicted on the incoming members. Those to be honored were: Lawrence Roehm, Detroit; James B. Angell, III, Detroit; E. P. Wright, Detroit; Wilson M. Sha- fer, Brockport, N. Y., James Barrett, Fort Wayne, Ill., B. R. Ballentine, De- troit; Boyd M.

ITHACA BCKFIED IMPERILS VICTORY Superior Maize and Blue Forward Men Threatened By Coach Sharpe's Veteran Halfs STAATZ CUTS WEIGHT AVERAGE Cornell's backfield will have a big advantage in weight when the Ithacans face Yost's warriors on Saturday, the easterners' lightest backfield man outweighing Catlett, the heaviest Wol- verine back, by 10 pounds. The Michi- gan line, however, will have a slight margin on Coach Sharpe's forwards. Michigan's line will average 186 2-7 pounds, to 178 1-7 pounds for Cornell. The four eastern backs average 175 pounds, however, while the Wolverines have to be content with an average of 156 1-4 pounds. £ The switching of Staatz and Catlett to the Varsity leaves the team lighter by eight pounds than the early season combination, but the Wolverines have become accustomed to being outweigh- ed, and think nothing at all of a '10 pound handicap. Cornell's great advantage lies in the fact that she has .1 men on her squad, who have played at least one game against the Maize and Blue, while six of these men have faced Yost's war- riors twice. Michigan has walloped the Ithacans two years in succession, and the Big Red team is out for re- venge, basing their threats upon the fact that Coach Sharpe has developed the best team this fall that Cornell has boasted of in several years. TRYING FOR MINNESOTA GAME TO BE PLAYED THANKSGIVING Director Bartelme Lays Matter Before Athletic Board For Special Consideration Minnesota-Michigan football was suggested in a telegram, received yes- terday by Athletic Director Bartelme, from a body of Minneapolis alumni of the two schools, who are backing a project for a turkey-day battle between all-star teams of alumni of the two universities. Mr. Bartelme promised to lay the matter before the board in control of athletics, but does not consider the matter likely to go through. If the ex- ecutive committee of the board feels that the proposal is a practical one, a special meeting of the board will prob- ably be called soon to go into the mat- ter in detail. FINAL MASS MEETING PLANNED Prepare Shorter and Livlier Program For Friday Gathering With the end in view of making the Cornell game mass meeting, next Fri- day evening, shorter and livelier, the program committee, composed of Adna R. Johnson, '14, and Chester Lang, '15, has begun preparation for the last big gathering of the year. Though the meeting will begin at 7:30 o'clock, it is planned to conclude the affair at 8:15 o'clock. As another means of shortening the program, no cartoons will be thrown on the screen, and the amount of sing- ing will be reduced. The band will play selections, and "Hap" Haff will have charge of the cheering. The speakers for the evening have not yet been definitely secured. Tick- ets for the gathering will be distribu- ted at the Union Thursday and Friday in the same manner as for the two pre- ceding mass meetings.
