Graduate Inquires About Toque
Editor The Michigan Daily:
Kindly tell me what toque I should
wear. This is my fifth year on a col-
lege campus, but due to changing
schools and courses, I have no degree.
--G. W. F.
It has been the custom to wear the
toque of the class to which one tech-
nically belongs, not according to years
spent on the campus or a campus.
Hence, since you probably have the
same number of hours as the regular

Captain Ccchrai, Coach Yost, Ath-
letic Director Bartelme, and Trainer
Farrell got together in spirit and de-
cided on the awarding of the Michi-
gan letter to the men whom they felt
had won it by their work during the
year. Fift_2!n men wero given the
M" by the agreement of the above
four judges, the number being one
less than received the letter last year.
The men to receive the "M" were
as fohows: Captain Cochran, Roehm,
Maulbetsch, Catlett, Smith, Staatz,
Dunne, Watson, Norton, Niemann,
Rehor, Weske, Millard, Whalen, and
Bastion. Due to the fact that he was
"out of town Coach Yost approved this
final list by telegraph. k ,
A couple of surprises were sprung
on the dopesters when the list was
announced, Lewis Relmann, who won
his letter last year, being among those
who did not receive their insignia.
Hard luck, with injuries, has kept
Reimann away from winning a sec-
ond "M." The tackle was laid out
in the early part of the season, and
at that time was incapacitated for the
rest of the year.
Weske, who rounded into form late
,pulled down a letter, and this action
is somewhat of a surprise for a man
who was playing on the scrubs until
along past mid-season, but his show-
ing after he did strike his pace won
him his letter deservedly. Raymond,
who was figured as a sure man for
the "M" was due to be disappointed,
in spite of the fact that e got into
the Penn game.
The "M" men were unable to get
together to elect a captain, on ac-
count of the absence of "Pat" Smith
from Ann Arbor, but after the return
of the fullback the letter wearers will
gather for their picture, and at that
time will elect a leader for next year.
NEW PLAN GIVES CREDIT FOR
FRESHMEN IN SPORTING WORK
Under the new plans of the physical
science department, ten first-year men
are given credit for sporting activity
and athletic work carried on outside
the gymnasium, This applies to all
forms of athletic games in their sea-
son. The results of this change of
regulations have been to bring many
men out for sprinting and cross-coiin-
try running, as well as for football
and soccer.
Dr. May, head of the department, is
confident that he has some material
that will bear looking over, and he be-
lieves that some of the men he has on
hand will make good later on when
they will eventually have to fight for
Michigan.
TOASTMASTERS' CLUB INITIATES
Frary, Folz, Sprick and Caron Taken
Into Organization
Gerald S. Frary, 14L, Ralph E.
Folz, '17, Harvey H. Sprick, '16, and
George C. Caron, '17L, broke into the
Toastmasters' club at its fall initia-
tion yesterday. Following the initia-
tion, the club held a banquet at the
Catalpa Inn.
Wright Receied $25,000 a Year
New York, Nov. 16.-Orville Wright
received $500,000 and a contract for
his employment at $25,000 a year for
his stock in the Wright Aeroplane
company, recently sold to a new syn-
dicate. These figures were made known
Monday when Pliny W. Wlliamsn, f
New York, legal and business advisor
of the Wright Brothers, filed suit
against Mr. Wright to recover $50,000
for his services in effecting the sale.

Letters were addressed yesterday
from the intramural department of
the athletic association to officers of
all classes upon the campus whose
names are registered in the Students'
Directory, requesting them to make
appointments of managers to handle
interclass indoor baseball.
The indoor baseball game has al-
ways been a popular spring game on
outdoor diamonds where the grounds
are not large enough to permit the
regular outside baseball game, and it
is expected that great interest will be
aroused in the new venture. The in-
door baseball games will be played
entirely in the evening at Waterman'
gymnasium, and it is hoped that the
lull between the football and basket-
ball seasons will be pleasantly filled
by means of these indoor contests.
It is the duty of each class presi-
dent to name a representative for this
sport, so that work on the schedule
and other details may be arranged at
once. The number of games to be
played and the teams to be met will
depend entirely upon the response
which is made by the various classes.:
In case the class president does not
take action, either the athletic com-
mittee or one of the other class of-'
ficers should make the appointment.
All representatives named to han-
dle this branch of sport should im-
mediately turn their names in to'
either Mr. Rowe or Mr. Pardee at the
intramural office. At the meeting Fri-'
day afternoon at 5:00 o'clock in the
offices o the athletic association, de-
tailed explanation will be made of the
plans for this year, and each indoor'
baseball manager appointed should
attend.
TOO FEW PLAYERS LOSES
GAME FOR JUNIOR ELEVEN
Dents Battle to Tie Game With the
Star Senior Literary Aggre-
gation
In their third clash for supremacyt
the junior lits and the soph lits met
yesterday on a field covered with threet
inches of snow, and after a hard fight
for nearly a half the juniors were
forced to pass up the game because of
lack of players, which by the rules of1
the league constitutes a forfeit game.
Both teams are regarded as among
the best in the league, and on accounti
of having played two ties the largei
crowd on the side lines was disap-
pointed in missing this classic of the
football league.
Playing a hard style of straight foot-
ball, the dents and the senior engi-
neers battled to a tie game yesterday, t
neither side having much the edge on
the other. Stumbling and ragged work
on account of the slushy field marked
the game throughout. There was no
open play used, tactics being confined
to line bucking.
By their failure to appear for their
game scheduled with the soph engi-
neers, the medicsforfeited, thus leav-
ing the soph lits and the soph engi-
neers to fight out the sem-pflnals today.
Both teams are in the best of condi-
tiona and their supporters are looking
for a close and hard game.
Following is the schedule:
Today
1. Soph lits vs. ogp engineers.
2. Dents v.s ;gior engineers.
Tomorrow
3 Senior lits vs. losers of No. 2.
Saturday Morning

About this time every year, num-
erous publications the country wide,
delight in selecting an All-American
football team. The Michigagn Daily
wishes to conform to certain of these
outward conventionalities and thus aft-
er due deliberation, we have honored
the above individuals as being the
best in their respective positions..
ENDS--There were numerous fast
ends in the country this season but
"Steve" Brodie and Daniel Cupid re-
ceive the call. The reason for the
first selection is obvious, while Cupid
plays 'an excellant defensive game
and hasn't missed a tackle all season-
or any other season, either. There
were other good ends, but these two
stand forth.
TACKLES -- Tackles were scarce
this year, and a choice is difficult, but
Bo and Holmes get the call, and are
hereby nominated. Holmes has'nt
missed a man yet, and is dependable,
cool and collected. In addition he in-
variably diagnoses his opponents plays
before the kick-off has even been re-
ceived, and thus is a valuable adjunct
to any team. It might prove diffi-
cult to get Holmes into a suit and on
the field, but that isn't our concern.
GUARDS-Thaw and Chaplin have
an edge on the other guards in the
country, although Thomas Edison,
Ring Lardner and Eugene V. Debbs
could put up a stellar exhibition.
Thaw could buy up or bribe any thing
in the world, and Charlie-Oh, that
irresistible little Charlie-nothing is
complete without him. Daniels
of the Navy eleven ought to develop
into a good man in six or seven hun-
dred years and will bear watching.
CENTER--Perhaps in no one posi-
tion were there as many accredited

of these instruments be present at the Imembers of the senior class you shoe-ld
tryouts. wear the senior toque.
 LI T.
FOLLOWIING THE YOST-MIEN

stars as here at the pivot position, but
John easily stands head and shoulders
above them all. His running fire of
jokes, coupled with Charley's comic
capers send even the supreme court
into convulsions, and this will give
the backfield wonderful opportunities.
John is the greatest center of the de-
cade. Other good men at this position
are, Henry Ford, Robert Chambers
Jess Willard . Willard showed well
in the Jobnson college game and is
a "comer."'
QUARTERBACKS - Taft's great
judgment in selecting plays gives him
first honors, almost without opposition.
There probably isn't a finer mind in
America, and football needs brains.
In addition Taft is a wonder on ends
runs, and he handles punts acceptably.
He didn't drop one all season. We
dare you to deny this statement. Car-
uso's excellent voice puts him second,
as despite the yelling on the side lines,
he can always be heard.
HALF BACK-Easily the best back-
field man in the country is "Verne"
Castle. There ;isn't a better open
field runner in the world, as he dodges
with wonderful celerity and his steps
are considered faultless. In addition
his perfumed handkerchief is valuable
as a first aid to the injured. Roosevelt
is placed as Castle's running mate, be-
cause of his kicking ability. Teddy
could handle the punting end of the
game, as America has never seen a
harder punting end of the game, as
America has never seen a harder or
more forceful kicker. "Verne" and
"Teddy" would make a great combina-
tion, and could gain against any line in
the world.
FULLBACK-This position goes to
Feilding H. Yost, Jr., although Pentiss
Douglass, Jr., is a close second
choice. Yost, Jr.'s, stature makes him
a hard man to tackle and he has re-
ceived valuable training. Yost, Jr.,
has had much greater experience than
Douglass, Jr., and thus receives the
edge. However, this Douglass will
bear watching and in a couple of
years should prove a whirlwind. He
is merely a bit inexperienced as yet.
COACHES--This team wouldn't need
any coaches. It would need a hospit-
al corps, but for matter of form we
choose one. Miss Emma Goldman re-
ceives the nomination.

High School Plays
for State Laurels
Michigan will not have a chance to
make a fight for the championship title
this year and Ferry Field was not the
scene of any struggles in which there
was very much at stake. But that
will not prevent Michigan's gridiron
from being robbed of all vestigge of
championship. For Michigan students
will have the opportu:Aity to witness on
next Saturday the last game of the
year on Ferry Field in which the win-
ner will be crowned the undisputed
Scholastic champion of Michigan.
With the consent of the university
authorities, Detroit Central and Ann
Arbor high schools will play next
week-end on the Varsity gridiron.
Ann Arbor has won every game play-
ed against Michigan 'prep' schools this
year, losing only to Toledo Scott high,
The decisive trouncing which the lo-
cal boys gave Jackson on Saturday
won them the right to play Detroit
on Ferry Field.
In the Detroit team, according to ad-
vance reports, the spectators will view
the most powerful high school team
developed in the west in some time.
The Detroit boys have swept all el-
evens they have met before the win-
ning by deceisive scores. Their latest
win was over Grand Rapids Central,
one of the championship contenders
the final score being 54-0.
Ypsilanti holds the distinction of
being the only team to score upon the
meropolis boys this year. In a bat-
boys were at their lowest ebb, and
with a team of substitutes playing,
Ypsi sent over a counter. This is
the only time the goal line has been
approached this year.
In Culver, Straw, Peacock, Fletch-
er and Holton, Detroit offers what is
probably the best line, both on offense
and defense, in Michigan football cir-
cles. The backfield is both speedy and
weighty, and with clever head work on
the part of the quarter Hendrian, the
Central team is regarded as well bal-
anced as it could be.
Ann Arbor showed itself fairly
strong in the Jackson game and some
of the local school's adherents are
counting on a victory. Coach Kennedy,
a Princeton man, expresses the hope
that his boys will beat Detroit, but
he will be satisfied at holding them
to a lower score than did Grand Rap-
ids, and hopes to lower the 34 point
total of Muskegon.
Columbia May Cancel Wesleyan Game
New York, N. Y., Nov. 16.-If Wes-
leyan plays the Trinity team, which
boasts George Brickley, it is probable
that the Columbia athletic authorities
will cancel the Wesleyan-Columbia
game scheduled for Thanksgiving. Co-
lumbia has cancelled her game with
Trinity and does not intend to encour-
age professionalism in the sport, so
will not play against any team with
acknowledged professionals on its ros-
ter, or against any team which has
competed with a team on which a pro-
fessional has played.

ALL-FRSHYAR
WAS SUCCESSFUL
1MENTOR THINKS VALUABLE MA
TERIAL HAS BEEN BEVEL.
OPED DURING SEASON
ONE LESS THAN LAST YEAR
Fourteen Yearlings to Be Decorated
With Yellow Insignia for
Fall's Work
According to no less a personage
than Coach Douglass, the past All-
Fresh season was a distinct success,
not only in the scores made by the
team and the showing against other
schools, but in the number of players
which have been developed as prom-
ising material for next year's Varsity.
After all, the purpose of the first year
team is not to see how large a score
can be made against those schools
which are willing to play against the
yearling huskies.. but on the other
hand, the team is organized in order
to develop men for future Varsities.
In this respect this fall's team looks
to be one of the most notable of suc-
cesses which has ever walked upon a
Ferry Field gridiron.
"On the showing which Captain
Sparks' team made Saturday after-
noon, this year's squad seems to me
to compare most favorably with any
which I have ever coached," said
Douglass. "In smoothness in get-
ting'off plays, carrying the ball, and
general charging in the line, this.
year's team cannot be placed other
than alongside of the 1914 champion-
ship aggregation. The boys never
really showed what was in them until
they lined up opposite the Detroit
team last Saturday. If the members
of this team develop as they ought
naturally to do, at least four of them
should win their places upon Yost's
next year's regulars," continued the
coach.
* Fourteen sets of numerals will be
bestowed on the freshmen squad this
fall. This is exactly the same num-
ber which the coach last fall favored -
with insignia for their work in mak-
ing the season a success. Those who
are expected to call at the office of
the athletic association in order to be
measured for sweaters and caps, are:
Captain Sparks, Beath, Bevins, Dunn,
Eggert, Hanish, MacLachlan, Naish,
Peach, Reekie, Snyder, Towsley, Wil-
liams and Wieman
