CCHYST CUTS
MiCHIGAN SQUAD
But 24 Men Remain on Wolverines'
Varsity List for Final Game
of Year
THE TEA1 GETS LIGHT WORKOUT
Coach Yost sprang a surprise on the
Varsity yesterday afternoon, when he
announced a cut in the squad. The
following men remain and will make
the Pennsylvania trip as first-string
men: Captain Cochran, Catlett, Maul-
betsch, Bastian, Dunne, Watson,
Staatz, Rimann, Whalen, Millard,
Norton, Zeiger, Smith, Raymond, Cal-
vin, Hildner, Howe, Warner, Sharpe,
Niemann, Rehor; Roehm, Boyd and
Weske.
The coach devoted' the bigger por-
tion of yesterday's workout to a signal
drill, with a few of the men practicing
at receiving forward passes. Yost an-
nounced that this week would be de-
voted to polishing off the rough spots
as far as possible, so that the team
will be in the best of condition for the
Pennsylvania fray in Philadelphia next
Saturday.
The line will probably receive the
biggest share of attention. Yost stated
yesterday that the lineup which would
take the field against Pennsylvania
would be the same as that which faced
Cornell last Saturday, with two possi-
ble exceptions. The Wolverine men-
tor is uncertain who will start at left
guard. Reimann didn't get into the
game at all last Saturday, and he may
receive the call, although Yost is un-
decided.
urday, with two possible exceptions.
The Wolverine mentor is uncertain
who will start at left guard. Reimann
didn't get into the game at all last
Saturday, and he may receive the call,
although Yost is undecided.
The other shift comes at end. "Mor-
rie4 Dunne will replace "Jack" Benton,
as Benton is no longer on the squad.
Both Coach Yost and the player are
silent upon the subject.
Pennsylvania was trounced again
last Saturday, but the coaches are
bending every effort to defeat Michi-
gan. Identically the same situation
holds true here at Michigan, and Sat-
urday's game should prove "well worth
the price of admission," as the advance
agents say in theatrical circles.
Michigan will be represented by her
million-dollar band and the crew of
the battleship Michigan, in addition to
the local rooters who make the trip.
"Dutch" Eberwein's name is missing
from the Michigan Varsity list, as
"Dutch" removed himself automatic-
ally Sunday afternoon when he played
with the Ann Arbor Independents.
Tickets to the "Trilby" shows at
The Arcade Monday, November 15, are
on sale at the box office from 1:00 to
3:00 p. m. all this week. Better get a
ticket early and be sure of a seat.
"Trilby" had the greatest run of any
Photoplay ever shown in Detroit. It
drew capacity houses at the Majestic
the largest picture house in Detroit
for three weeks-three times as long
as any other feature was ever shown
in that city. nov9-10-11

WALTER CAMP AGREES
WITH YOST IN DISPUTE
Yale Authority Declares Michigan
Touchdown in Case Game ;
Legal
During the Case game several weeks
ago, a decision by Referee Henry took1
away from Michigan a touchdown
which at this time appears to have
been a legitimate six points to be add-,
ed to the season's total.
Michigan had carried the pigskin
down to within a few feet of the
Clevelanders' goal line, and "Maullie"
was called upon to place the spheroid1
safely across the last chalk mark. The
German responded nobly by making
up the necessary distance and a few
feet extra for good measure. The
referee's whistle declared the play,
ended, and apparently it was Michi-
gan's opportunity to make the try for
goal.
At this point in the proceedings,
however, one of Yost's linemen joined
in a friendly tussle with an opponent,
during which a Case man was unduly
ruffled. The umpire noticed the fracas1
and called the referee's attention to
it. After a little discussion of the
rules, Michigan was penalized half
the distance to the goal line, Case was
given the ball and the touchdown de-
clared void.
Coach Yost at the time was invited
upon. the field by Umpire Kinney to
give his views upon the matter. As
the referee's whistle declared the ball
dead, and the action of the individual
player, occurring after the whistle
had blown, had not helped to advance
the ball, it was the belief of the coach
that the touchdown was perfectly al-
lowable. In any event, the ball should
not have been given to Case even if
the penalty were carried out.
Some of the most prominent author-
ities of the football world have agreed
with Yost on the point under discus-
sion, including Hackett, Haines and
Holderness.
Now comes Walter Camp, the court
of final decision in all such matters,
with the following coroboration of
the coach's opinion: "Replying to
yours of the 18th, relative to point of
dispute in the Case-Michigan game, I
think we should agree pretty fully on
this matter. A touchdown would be
allowed but the distance penalty in
the judgment of the referee, I think,
would apply to the distance from the
goal at which the kick for the goal
from touchdown would be made, as
the' difficulty arose after the touch-
down was made and that play was
completed. Then in either the case of
the punt-out or the ordinary kick, the
penalty might be inflicted to militate
against the probability of kicking a
goal. The Interpretation committee,
however, gave some reason for letting
the disqualification be the only pen-
alty when they voted on page 96, rule
3, section 2, that in the case of an
illegal substitution by a team when
back of its goal line the penalty would
be disqualification only."

YOST'S MEN TODAY

1OLLOWING THE YOST-MEN

Douglass and his freshmen spent
yesterday afternoon in preparing for

Saturday's engagement withi the U ni- I the squad by presenting the youngster

versity of Detroit. After a short sig-
nal practice, the team proceeded to
the field of hostilities, where they
mixed things up with McGinness' re-
serves. After about a half hour, the
coaches decided to suspend hostilities,
as darkness had long been the main
element in the play. The final count
stood at 13-7, with the yearlings on the
long end.
Sparks, as ringleader, ably assisted
by the rest of the team, clearly out-
played the rese ves. For the first few
moments of play neither side was able
to do much in the way of advancing
the ball. Finally Johnson, playing
quarter for the reserves, broke away
for a long gain, and after two unsuc-
cessful tries at the fresh line, Biber
shot through right tackle for six
points.
After this there was nothing to it
but the Douglass crew. Sparks, by
some brilliant open field running,
brought the ball to the reserves' 40-
yard stripe, and then streaked around
left end for the rest of the distance
on a fake pass formation. Reekie
kicked goal.
Darkness was the principal asset in
making the second score. With Sparks
carrying the pigskin most of the time,
the yearlings could not be stopped.
Several times the new men were ham-
pered by bad passes from center, but
this was entirely excusable, as it was
difficult for Nash to pick out the re-
ceiver on many of the plays. Once
Sparks ran through the whole team
except Johnson, who was able to drive
the yearling star out of bounds on
the reserve 15-yard line. The reserves
held momentarily, and then the Jack-
son boy again sneaked around left end
for the last score. No goal was tried,
the coaches calling the melee because
of the difficulty of following the ball.
Williams is still missing from the
team, and it is extremely doubtful
whether he will be able to play Satur-
day. His injured leg was hurt again
in last Thursday's scrimmage and is
still in very bad shape.
This afternoon the freshmen are ex-
pected to meet either the reserves
again or Coach Yost's Varsity.
FRESHMAN AND SECOND-YEAR
ENGINEERS WIN CLASS GAMES
Intramural Director Floyd A. Row
Announces Rules Governing
Interclass Series
Two class football games were
played, in the engineering departmen
yesterday, the juniors and sophs clash-
ing in one and the seniors and fresh-
men in the other. The sophs wallope
the juniors by a 20-to-0 score, while
the freshmen held the seniors to only
one touchdown, the final score being
6 to 0.
According to Intramural Directo
Floyd Rowe, the two teams in each de
partment finishing first and second, re
spectively, will get into the next roun
of games to be played to decide th
campus championship. In this nex
round the teams finishing first in thei
respective departments will b
matched together, and those second
place teams in the first round wil
play one another likewise.
Four teams will receive their nu
merals, the three highest teams in th
first division, with the fourth set to
be fought out, between the lowest tear
of the first division and the highes
of the second. This gives any tear
in the second division a chance t
make numerals, so that one defeat wil
not put them out of the running.

with a regulation football. Perhaps
this was done in order that the new-
comer would learn kicking in the day-
light hours, and not disturb the, coach's
sleeping hours at night. Upon behalf
of his son, who was unable to be
present, Coach Douglass accepted the
gift from the squad. Dunn, yearling
tackle, made the presentation speech,
tackling the delicate subject in a
manner which won him hearty ap-
plause. Williams presented the ball
to the proxy.

"Jack" seemed Bent-on retiring:
We're still waiting for "Pat" Smith
to buy. What's the matter Cedric?
A few more days like yesterday, and
the boys will be perusing these col-
umns for news of Captain Labadie,
Brandell, McNamara, et al.
The man who would dare to dispute
Cornell's right to the football title
would just about have to deny the
very existence of the game itself.
The Yale-Harvard game willhave
fully as much bearing on the Ameri-
can football championship as the an-
nual struggle between Olivet and
Alma.
Being cut off the Varsity squad
some two days before the only trip of
the year, must be quite a lot like hav-
ing to appear -at your girl's wedding
merely to serve in the capacity of
best man.
Pity the poor man who made a date
for the Cornell game way along in the
summer while under the influence of
