Michigan will have as many support- ers at M. A. C. on Saturday, as she has had in her early season games at home. With every available interur- ban ticket sold early yesterday after- noon, and the Michigan Central sale running over the 300 mark, the rush showed no signs of a let-up at a late hour last night. The Ann Arbor road's tickets go on sale today. Six special cars have been chartered on the Michigan Central for private parties, in addition to the excursion train that will be open to the general public. The agent states that sufli- cient coaches will be provided to fur- nish ample room for everyone, and that there will be no crowding. Sever- al special cars have been chartered to take Michigan alumni in Detroit to the' game. The interurban company has arrang- ed to send six special cars, in addition to those which have been chartered by vairous organizations. The cars will' be sent in two trains at 8:46 and 10:46, the latter being scheduled to arrive in ample time for the game. The time at which the interurbans will leave Lan- sing on the return trip Saturday night has not yet been determined, but will be announced on the way to the game. When word reached M. A. C. that the number of Michigan rooters would probably be close to 2,500, the authori- ties began making additional plans for handling the huge crowd, and work on the temporary bleachers is being rush- ed with all possible speed. Michigan rooters will make their headquarters at the Hotel Downey during their stay in Lansing. RED CROSS BENEFIT MEETING DRAWS NEARLY 2,000 PEOPLE promises to be one of the biggest nights of real Michigan entertainment ever offered. The immediate aim of the band is to get enough money be- fore October 31, to take the trip to' Harvard with the team. Plans are in the hands of Manager J. S. Hoexter and a committee of stu- dents representing the entire campus. Every effort will be made to fill the auditorium frpm the orchestra rail to the ceiling, at 25 cents a seat, which will give the needed $1,500. A letter has been received from the alumni as- sociation of New England to the effect that the band will be taken care of while in Boston. The musical part of the concert program will be furnished' by the band, the glee.and mandolin clubs, and the University symphony orchestra., while the campus has been dragged for stunts, vaudeville acts and novelties to fill the evening full. Beside the bet- ter known campus entertainers the committee has unearthed a freshman prodigy in the shae of a man just off, the vaudeville stage who has a com- plete line of original acts. C. Stanley Lamb, '18, of Duluth, will be the head- liner in the vaudeville department. Other parts of the program will be announced later. The band will take an important part in the Convocation exercises, to- day.

For theq t starred. Freshman Coach Douglas will take tire from a squad of 18 pupils to the little state bang on college in an endeavor to duplicate last year's scrap, when Michigan's the men grey cappers swamped Adrian's best e coaches bet by a 76 to 0 score.

The Ann Ar- freshman mentor looks for an easy no reg- victory, but the number of substitu- d, owing tions planned will probably keep the ming so score down much lower than the 1913 ge crowd game. rk hou r to Dr. Wishart Outlines Organization's Work; Over $500 Is Given By Audience Nearly 2,000 people were present at the Red Cross mass meeting, held in Hill auditorium last evening. Presi- dent-Emeritus James B. Angell spoke a few words of welcome, and introduc- ed the Rev. Alfred W.Wishart of Grand' Rapids, the principal speaker of the evening. - Dr. Wishart made a strong appeal for the American Red Cross society, outlining the work of that organiza- tion in the past and pointing out its humanitarian achievements in the war stricken countries of Europe today. He also spoke about the war, its atroc- ities, and how such a catastrophe might be prevented in the future. The Cosmopolitan club assisted by the Red Cross nurses presented a tab- leau. Twenty members of the club represented their native lands in the tableau, carrying banners, while 16 nurses were spread among them, indi- cating the wide spread movement of the American Red Cross society. A collection of $503.60 was taken up in cash subscriptions and pledges. NUMBER OF APPLICANTS FOR WORK EXCEEDS EMPLOYMENT Employment continues to be scarce at the Michigan Union bureau, while the number of applicants is great. There are a few soliciting jobs on hand' and there are 75 student applicants, many of whom are dependent on out- side work for their support in the university. The employment secretary of the Union, who was ill during the first of the week, is again at his desk.: Lack of Interest Causes Intramural Director Rowe to Summon Managers COUNCIL n the while 'range ps co a lar Nominations in Senior Engineering and Law Classes Come Under Fire Less than a week remains before interclass football is due to begin, and so few teams have turned out for prac- tice, and so few classes have signified their intention of ,taking part in the series, that as yet it has been impossi- ble to arrange a schedule., In order to arouse interest, and to find out what classes will have teams, Intramural Director Rowe has plan- ned a meeting 'of all class football managers for 5:00 o'clock today. If possible the schedule will be started Monday, but if play cannot be started as early as that, it will be be- gun not later than Wednesday. Teams which wish to. practice, and have not as yet received balls from their class, may secure old balls for practice pur- poses from Director Rowe or Coach Crawford at south Ferry field. COME ONE!

FRESH FOOTBALL MEN APPEAR , TO HAVE BEST DEVELOPMENT Majority of Physical Examinations of First Year Men Are Now Completed Dr. May has given physical examna- tions to more than half of the fresh- men enrolled in the literary and engi- neering departments, although there still remain two weeks of- the month set aside for these examinations. Of the number which has had its inspec- tion, none has shown exceptional de- velgpment, although several of the All-Fresh football men were given the best percentages. Robbins and Brown of the yearling squad appear to lave the best "builds" thus far The freshmen gymnasium classes start November 2, and with the excep- tion of Guy C. Curtiss, '16E, whose place has been taken by W. E. Lam- oreaux, '16L, Dr. May's staff of assist- ants will remain intact. Election time rumor is once more on the campus. The most insistent talk centers about the senior classes] in the law and engineering depart- ments. Most of the men approached by a Daily representative would admit that their information was based on hearsay only, but refused to come for- ward with a definite accusation. In the law department, the rumor is that one candidate had had a number. of votes pledged even before the nom- inations. Another candidate in the same class is said to have had a cer- tain number of votes lined up for him by a small ring. In the engineering department, a certain portion of the class is said to have decided on a certain man for president as far back as the middle of last summer. Last year a similar faction failed of electing its candidate by only two or three votes. A. T. Ricketts, '15E, president of the student council said last night that that body would take action only if a definite charge is brought to its at- tention. The student council-constitution un- der "suggestions for senior and jun- for nominations" says "There shall be no campaigning for office, whether in the form of election cards, personal so- licitation, solicitation by friends, or in any other manner whatsoever. Sec- tion 6 of the class constitutions reads: "5. No solicitation for support for any candidate for office or electioneering of any kind shall be carried on any- where within the building in which the election is being held." cheer on the ,d up as Varsity Dunne anton, Spirits were raised in the All-Fresh camp last night when it was learned that the yearlings had survived the ravages of the eligibility committee with scarcely a cut. In previous years, a number of good men have been lost through scholastic difficulties, but this year's bunch seem to have practically escaped the wrath of the faculty.' Though tomorrow's lineup has not been definitely chosen, it is expected the men will start about as follows: Ingham, le; Pobanz, It; Henrickson, Ig; Thompson or Howe, c; Whelen or Willard, rg; Ewert, rt; W.
