LAS MEET DENTS ,FOR PUS TITLE Bill Decisive Contest for Inter-Class Championship Between Two Close Contenders LITS AND BOILERMAKERS DRAW When the senior laws "meet the dents in the finals of the class foot- ball series at 9:30 o'clock on south Ferry Field this morning the resting place of the campus championship for the 1315 season will be decided. These two teams will receive their numerals, while the two remaining sets will be given to the two best, teams of the three remaining, the senior lits, the senior engineers and the soph lits. In the semi-finals between the se- nior lits and the senior engineers in the race for numerals, the game re- sulted in a tie score, 0-0. During the first part of the game the engi- neers seemed to have an edge on the lits, but toward the end of the game the latter came through in fine style, and could have slipped a touchdown across if there had been a few min- utes more of play. The engineers made most of their gains on straight football, few for- ward passes being used on account of the sleet that made the slippery ball difficult to handle. In plays around the ends they also showed up well, and .got away with a lot of ground on clever formations and de- layed passes. Fumbles and inability to keep their clutches on the pigskin resulted in losses, and ragged play- ing for both sides during the whole game. On account of the soft con- dition of the field, most of the tackles were wild, and when a man was able to get a start, he usually carried the ball for some distance. The engineers, although they seem- ed to have the heavier line, played a weak game on offense, and the lits repeatedly broke through and got the back before he was under way. In the second half the lits got the ball, and using Martens and Brandell on plays around the ends, brought it up within striking distance of the engi- neer's goal, where they lost it on a fumble. The engineers were unable to make their downs, and punted to the lits' 30-yard line. The lits ad- vanced it to the middle of the field where they were held by the engi- neers, and were forced to punt, set- ting the ball back to the 20-yard line. On the first down the engineers boot- ed the ball to the middle of the field, but Brandell in a pretty piece of open field running brought it back to the 25-yard line. With only a half min- ute of play left, the lits attempted a place kick from the field, but the ball was so slippery that it was fozzled and went all wrong. Throughout the whole last half the lits had it on the engineers, and seemed to show a return to their old-time form. Brandell and Martens te, featured the game in their splendid plays through the line and around the ends. The lits attempted several forward passes, but only a couple of them succeeded, and then only for slight gains. The result of the game musses up the whole schedule, which was to be finished by today, so that now the games will run into the lat- ter part of next week. The laws have planned an elabo- rate scheme of demonstration for the event of their presumed victory over the dents today. This morning be- fo.re the game all the supporters of the lawyers will assemble in front of the law building. Here they will be rmet by a "misfit" band organized especially for the occasion, nVd headed by the musicians, they will march in a body to Ferry Field, sing- ing a mixture of martial and legal strains. A large body of the young advocates are expected out to cheer their team to victory. The laws have Films developed and printed at Hoppe's Studio. Martin guitars, mandolins, ukeleles and all musical instruments at Schae- berle & Sor's Music House, 110 South Main street. oct8tf been practising a number of new trick plays, and they promise some big surprises when they go in for gore this morning. Monday the senior lits and the se- nior engineers will probably play off their tie, and on either Tuesday or Wednesday, the soph lits will meet the losers in the final fight for their numerals. There is strong dope to the effect that the seniors and the scphs in the literary division are the best bets for their numerals in the final games, unless the engineers show better form than in yesterday's game. Indoor Baseball Managers Gather Eight Classes Send Representatives to Initial Gathering of Leaders of Teams Michigan's Intramural system has added a new link to its chain of activi- ties. At a meeting of class indoor baseball managers yesterday afternoon it was decided to install a league for that sport. Eight classes were represented at the meeting, and sufficient interest was assured by this trnout to guar- antee the success of the venture. With eight classes behind the move- ment at its inception it is likely that several more will join in after the league is under way, and with this idea in mind the committee is making plans for the organization of a playing body. The gymnasium is to be the scene of the indoor baseball contests, and next Tuesday night will see the open- ing of activities in the league, -this evening having been set aside as the first day of practice for the teams. With many teams in the league, it will be necessary to make a schedule for practice so that all the teams may get in some preliminary licks before the season begins. Although it was felt that sufficient interest .was shown by the classes to warrant the adopting of the plan, it will be necessary, in order to make the league an entire success, to have some of the other classes come in. Those class presidents who have not yet made the appointment of the in- door baseball manager are requested to do so immediately, so that the mak- ing of the schedule may be taken up in the near future. The new sport will serve a new pur- pose on the Michigan campus,itabeing open only to those men who have not taken part in the class football series and who do not intend to take part in' the class basketball series. By this machination two objects will be accom- plished. The sport will be taken out of the hands of the group in the class which dominates the existing class sports, and it will result in drawing into class athletics that portion of the student body which usually fails to go out for other class teams because of the fact that- the competition is too severe. "M" CLUB BANQUETS PREP TEAMS Detroit and Local High School Squads Dine at Union Michigan's "M" club will entertain the members of the Detroit Central and the Ann Arbor high school foot- ball teams at a dinner at the Michi- gan Union at 5:30 o'clock today, fol- lowing the game between the two teams on Ferry Field this afternoon for the state scholastic championship. The entertainment at tonight's din- ner will consist of talks by members of the alumni, faculty and student body, represented by the 1915 foot- ball team. Throughout the meal an orchestrawill furnish music for the delectation of the prep school ath- letes. The Detroit team arrives in Ann Arbor this morning, and leaves for Detroit again tonight, it being neces- sary for the lads to keep in shape for their Turkey Day game with Oak Park of Chicago. If there is one thing on earth which we would rather do than anything else on earth, it is to get you there when you are in a hurry. Stark, 2255. nov16tt HIGH SCHOOL TEAMS TO CLASH FOR STATE TITLE Dope Seems to Favor Detroit Although Ann Arbor Gridders Appear Confident of Victory Ann Arbor high school's eleven is scheduled to meet Detroit Central on Ferry Field at 2:00 o'clock today, in the championship game of the state of Michigan, Although the dope seems to favor the Detroit team, the local aggregation is confident and expects to send their opponents back home with only the second ribbon to show for their pains. It would appear on the surface that the Ann Arbor team is a little green and that Central's representation has the odds in weight and experience, but if spirit and hard work count for much the advantage should not be so one sided. This will be the eighth game between the two teams, on six of these occa- sions Central having won. Central is depending'on teamwork and general- ship to take Saturday's game. Hen- drian, at quarter for Detroit's machine is expected to engineer his team to vic- tory on the strength of his work this season.. Of Coach Kennedy's squad, Osborne at guard, Hicks at right half, and La at the other half, are the stars. These boys are touted as all-state material and have thus far had things entire- ly their own way in every game. Coach Kennedy says his, proteges will give all they have in the coming battle and will at least give Central the hardest fight of the season, although he ex- pects his charges to win. It seems that Lau of the local high school aggregation and his brother who is an All-Washington state half will probably attend Michigan next fall. The western star is about 180 pounds of fight, said fight running in the family. The pair should put in a strong bid for positions on next's year All-Fresh team. Admission to the game will be fifty cents.. Athletic coupons are not good for entrance as the field has been rented to the high school for the game. A strong body of rooters will be out to cheer for the Ann Arbor boys, and it is expected that a large number of university students will be on hand. ADDITIONAL SPORT ON PAGE SIX Serbian Campaign Remains Undecided London, Nov. 19.-The result in Ser- bia is still undecided, both sides claim- ing victories.

Amtsbeuchler, '16, Heads Move- ment to Organize Devotees of Wrestling Game There is now a movement on fot among devotees of wrestling to make it a major- sport at Michigan. Anthony E. Amtsbeuchler, '16, is giving every spare moment of his time to getting together the men interested in the game and organizing them into a homogeneous body. If he can obtain the sanction v2 the athletic authorities, Michigan will have a team that will take part in intercollegiate matches. Last year the most a man could get out of competition in wrestling was a cup and class numerals. This season it may be possible to win a Varsity letter for excellence in the sport. Quite a few students have taken a keen interest in wrestling so far this year and are diligently practicing so as to be in condition for the annual matches. The devotees of the sport are under the instruction of- Mr. 0. S. Westerman, and at the rate at which they are picking up the finer points of the game should be able to stage some excelelnt bouts later in the year. As usual the squad will elect a cap- tain and a wrestling team will be formed. Robert W. Watson, last year's captain, will in all probability be seen on the mat this season, and with his football trainng should be n fine shape. It is expected that he will make a strong bid for the honor of heavy- weight champion, the ?position now held by Lewis C. Reimann by virtue of his victory last year. Amtsbeuch- ler, the present middle-weight cham- pion, is out rounding into form, and unless some dark horse is developed by Mr. Westerman, should successfully defend his title this season. Mr. Westerman is taking great in- terest in the squad and intends to im- prove the manner in which the matches are conducted. He is not in favor of thirty-minute bouts, claiming thatethey are too strenuous for any amateur, and is going to try to install a system of six-minute bouts with a three-minute interval of rest in case of no fall in that time. Dr. George A. May, director of the Waterman gymnasium, announced that cups would be given to the winners n the different classes the same as last! year. Track Captain Interviews Aspirants Captian "Hal" Smith is busy inter- viewing promising track candidates and getting into shape some sort of a schedule for indoor track work. This will begin one week from Monday. Al- though the gym may be used any time between classes for track practice, regular schedules for work will prob- ably be arranged for the candidates. State Championship Detroit Central High vs. Ann Arbor High' AT Ferry Field TODA / I 2:00 P.M. Admission 50c THE DAILY SPORTOSCOPE Cambridge, Mass., Nov. 19. Dear Friend: As you may without a doubt have inagined, we at Cambridge are in a perfect furor of excitement over the approaching struggle for the gridiron supremacy of the east, which is to take place between our eleven, repre- senting Harvard university, and that team, which judges competent to say, have intimated may be our cause for downfall. I mean the reinvigorated and rejuvenated representatives of the institution of higher learning situated at New Haven. The conflict will take place tomor- row afternoon, and we are, heedless to say, eagerly anticipating its ap- proach. Our upright natures rebel against anything in the line of ath- letic endeavor that may be in the least underhanded or contrary to the most strict interpretation of the rules, and as a consequence of this, our eager desire for the most sportsman- like conduct, it is possible that our captain, Mr. Mahan, and another of one of our very best football players, Mr. Enwright will be forced to retire from the pastime. An accusation has been put forth against these young gentlemen to the effect that they have, for the sake of such a degrading thing as pecuniary gain, devoted a certain period of their existence to the training of the youth of our glorious commonwealth in things athletic. If, as those who for- warded these serious accusations affirm, the charges have a degree of veracity behind them, I should re- mark, as fellow to fellow, that the4 eleven representing fair Harvard, must perform its functions tomorrow without the presence of these most capable gentlemen. Presuming, of course, that the veracity of the tend- ered charges is able to be established prior to the opening of the much an- ticipated, and now slightly feared, contest with the eleven 'gentlemen from the New Haven college. I say, my dear Harold, in my over- whelming interest in our own ath letic endeavors on the morrow, I have been completely swept away, and to my chagrin, I find that I have as yet made no mention to you of the arrival of your cross country (I be- lieve you call it team). In accordance with the approved style I suppose I should say: "Michigan's sextette of distance runners arrived at Franklin today," and should continue in that vein. It is impossible for me to do that, but I can tell you what really happened to me as I went out to Franklin to meet the lads with your letter of introduction. Six very nice boys who are en- rolled in the University of Michigan were there in an almost Adamite sar- torial condition, in fact ycur friends were all prepared to go forth over the Massachusetts hills. I was so shocked at first that I could hardly appreciate their real merit, but on overcoming my embarrassment, I, in accordance with our ctistom, invited the gentlemen out for a cup of tea after they should have completed their day's work. They one and all re- fused, Mr. Walters asserting that drinking .was not a Michigan man's function. For this reason I venture to predice that if the men represent- ing Michigan do not bear away the highest honors in tomorrow's trial of skill and endurance, they will at least on account of their superior condi- tion, be foremost among those who press close on the heels of victory. As the Latin poet has said, "Ave atque vale," that is, good-bye for to- day, but how-do-you-do for the mor- row, I shall write you soon. Affectionately, RAMSDELL DeV. CHICHESTER.
