But Two Regulars Are Lost,
Wealth of Material
Remains

While

GAPTAIN SMITH AGAIN TO LEAD
Rumored That Junior National Cham-
pion May Enroll
Prospects for this year's track team
look unusually bright at this early
date, since the majority of men have
had at least one year's experience.
Coach Farrell will have a wealth of
material on hand, inasmuch as the
team lost but two regulars, Ferris and
Wilson, and with a -large and ex-
perienced squad it can safely be ex-
pected that "Steve" will turn out a
winning team.
Captain Smith has returned to as-
sume the duties of leader fof the sec-
ond time, and being one of the fastest
men in the country will be a sure
point winner in the sprints. "Al"
Robinson refuted the rumor that he
would not be back by appearing in
Ann Arbor for the opening of college.
Robinson, O'Brien and Scofield should
be of material assistance to Smith in
caring for any group of sprinters in
the country.
The 440-yard dash will have two
last year's' men, Huntington and Fon-
tana, and Al Robinson of the Fresh
track team. Greist, who did not re-
turn to school last year, is back, and
Murphy has removed his scholastic

school and competition for places on
the team will be particularly keen in
this event. Carroll, Fox, Donnelly,
Cherry and Dennee are the men ex-
pected to run the mile. Donnelly,
Wolf and Kulvinen are two-milers.
Max Robinson, who showed up well
as a sprinter last season, has been at
the hurdles during the summer, and
is expected to join Catlett, Corbin and
Fisher over the sticks. Robinson's
natural speed and his recently ac-
quired skill over the hurdles should
put him strongly in the running. .
Simmons and Perschbacher are ex-
pected to show in the high jump, and
Cross, Loud, Bastian and Smith in the
weights. The pole vault seems to be
an event lacking in experienced mate-
rial and Leslie and Fisher are more
or less unknown quantities in the
broad jump.
Several men are entering school
who should prove valuable in a year
or two. Zoellin, asprinter and hurd-
ler from Lewis Institute, has entered
this year. It is rumored that Kimball,
the star weight man on the Muskegon
high school team last year, is dissat-
isfied with the University of Chicago
and intends to enter Michigan.
It is also Deported that Earl Eby,
junior national champion in the half-
mile, is also considering this univer-
sity.
Gargoyle Will Appear on October 23
The Gargoyle will make its annual
bow to the public at noon, October 23,
in what promises to be a resplendent
cover-design in three colors by C. E.
Yokubicek, '18A. L. M. Kishlar, '17E.
Clark Smith, ex. '17, and A. D. Con-
key, '16, have contributed drawings
and sketches for the number.

With the introductory contest
booed for today, the team escaped
scrimmage yesterday afternoon. The
coach had several of his punters work-
ing, with the backs receiving the
kicks. Later he picked the first squad
and sent them around the field in a
signal practice. Zeiger piloted the
varsity, with Calvin directing the sec-
ond squad. Clyde Bastian was work-
ing at half in Benton's place, as Ben-
ton was busy on the campus. Later
Benton appeared on the field in civil-
ian garb.
Lawrence comes here with a rather
well mauled team, said eleven having
just passed through a severe grilling
at the hands of the Badgers. In the
Wisconsin game, nine fumbles on
pants put the Appleton team at a
strong disadvantage, and with a new
man to take care of running back the
balls booted by "Jack" Benton, the
Lawrence team will not be working
under as severe a handicap against
Michigan as it did against Wisconsin.
In spite of the fact that Lawrence
has its entire line intact from last
yaar, Coach Catlin is not optimistic
over the year's prospects. Cause for
a gloomy outlook by the Lawrence
rooters may be found in the fact that
the backfield is made up entirely of
new men. Rice and Vincent, the quar-
tarbacks, are men who are going into
the breach, as the regular quarter left
trie squad just before the opening of
college.
Whether Michigan will try to equal
Wisconsin's score against Lawrence is
a question. 'The coach will probably
prefer to give a chance to a consider-
able number of his proteges, and thus
vill not maintain full strength against

the invaders throughout the game.
Skinner and Catlett have both been
lost to the squad. Catlett has, an-
nounced that he will not report this
year, while Skinner, one of the prom-
ising candidates for guard, finds that
his classes will not let him appear on
Ferry Field often enough to stick with
the squad. Catlett's end runs last
year were one of the real joys of the
Michigan students' hearts, but "Buzz"
insists thathe's through.
WILSON CRACK POLE.VAULTER,
WILL NOT RETURN THIS YEAR
Business Interests Force Withdrawal
from Record-Breaking
Career
"Bo" Wilson, who astonished the
campus last year by breaking the Wa-
terman gym pole-vault record, will not
return to Ann Arbor this year. "Bo"
is holding down a job in the far west,
but looks forward to leaving work and
returning to Michigan by next fall.
Wilson proved to be a great asset
to Coach Farrell's squad last year,
and established by his consistent point
winning a respectful attitude toward
pole-vaulting at Michigan which the
Wolverines' opponents in past years
have not been forced to assume.
The Waterman gymnasium record
of 12 feet was set by Wilson last Feb-
ruary. Ih addition to this record, 'Bo"
won a first in the Notre Dame meet,
tied for first in the Syracuse meet,
tied for second in the Penn relays and
took fifth at the Intercollegiates.
Former President's Son Badly Injured
Cambridge, Mass., OcOt. 5.-Quentin
Roosevelt, a freshman at.Harvard, was
so badly injured by a fall from a
horse a week ago that he will be un-
able to report for the freshman eleven,
for which his prep school reputation
made him a likely candidate.

ON OTHER GRIDIRONS
(By the New York Sun Service.)
Cambridge, Mass., Oct. 5.--Rain,
which fell in torrents, drove the Har-
vard Varsity into the baseball cage
for the daily workout today. The lim-
ited quarters obliged Coach Haughton
to limit the drill to signal practice,
and every available man was used.
Wallace was placed at c'enter on the
scrubs, occupying the position of De-
Rham. The coaching committee has
not yet decided whether Wallace, Wig-
gin or DeRham will pass the ball for
Harvard in the big games.,
"Jack" Bigelow, son of Prof. S. L.
Bigelow, of the University of Michi-
gan, has ybeen playing regularly at
right tackle on the Varsity, and is re-
garded as a fixture in the line-up.
Bigelow played for several years on
the Ann Arbor high school team and
has been regarded as a comer since
his entrance into Harvard. His 'father
of general and physical chemistry at
Michigan.
Ithaca, N. Y., Oct. 5.-Dr. A. H.'
Sharpe made several changes in the
Cornell line-up today, the principal
one being the placing of Bailey, last
year's scrub tackle, on the varsity for
the second time this season. Bailey'
was on the first squad last week, but
was later relegated to the scrubs.
Schlichter returned to practice and
was given his old place at right half.
He did not appear to have suffered
much by his absence.
New Haven, Conn., Oct. 5.-In spite:
of the rain, the coaches sent the Var-
sity up against the scrubs in scrim-
mage today, and the first team con-
quered by a score of 3 to 0. Before.

Raymond is still on the injured list.
Phil has been out of it for several
days.
"Hal" Smith has supplanted "Hap"
Haff as cheer leader. "Jack" Watkins
and "Joe" Ufer will act as assistants.
'The Lawrence squad arrived last
night at 9:30 o'clock, an hour at which
they couldn't see much of Ann Arbor.
After their little experience on Ferry
Field today, they may conclude they've
seen enough of the old town, anyway.,
After shivering at football practice
and then detecting some tennis enthu-
siasts playing in the cold, one is con-
vinced that perhaps, after all, in some
instances this "higher education" is
vir'tually a necessity and not merely a
luxury.
"Buzz" Catlett, who saw the Law-
rence-Wisconsin game, held a consul-
tation with Coach Yost on the field
yesterday.tNo one overheard the pair
talking, but it was pretty generally

understood that they were busily en-
gaged in discussing the, income tax
and telling Ford jokes.
Last year Michigan had an excep-
tionally light backfield. This season,
with both "Jack" Benton and "Pat"
Smith behind the line, the beef in this
department will show a substantial in-
crease. Maulbetsch is a little fellow,
but at the same time no one's losing
any sleep over the fact.
After a close consultation with
Schulz, Yost, Almindinger, Farrell and
Raynsford, last night, Manager Comp-
ton volunteered the following inter-
view: "Although not over-confident,
Michigan is prepared to do her best
today. The team is trained to the
minute and in great shape. We'll be
fighting all the time, and Lawrence
must expect a terrific battle. We'll
have no excuses, as every man is on
edge. The Michigan coaches hope to
win, as they believe they have the bet-
ter team."
