THREE GET GHANGE AT
QUARTERBAK POSITION
"Rummy" R ehm Springs Surprise by
-Perforimance During First
Tean Signal Drill
Dissatisfied with the performance of
the trio of quarterbacks which piloted
the Varsity in Wednesday's game with
Lawrence, Coach Yost had three more
athletes directing the first team last
night,. with another candidate due to-
day.
Roehm, Sharpe and Bixler were all
given opportunities to run the team
in practice, while the coach expects
to try "Buzz" Catlett at quarter when
that versatile athlete makes an ap-,
pearance.
Perhaps the biggest surprise of the
day was sprung when "Rummy"r
Roehm was sent in to direct the play
of the first aggregation during the sig-
nal drill. Roehm has hitherto been
striving for a 'position at half, and
has performed creditably at this post.
Therefore his advent into the quarter-3
ON OTHER GRIDIRONS
(By the New York Sun Service.)
Ithaca, N. Y., Oct. 7.--Coach Sharpe
evidently expects that Cornell will run
up against some stiff opposition when
it meets Williams on Saturday. le
put the Varsity through the first secret
practice of the year in the baseball
cage this afternoon. The showing of
Williams in previous games would not
seem to indicate that Cornell need fear
defeat, but the tutor is taking few
chances, so lie put the men through
the private workout.
This practice was followed by a half-
hour's scrimmage between the first and
second string men on Alumni field, in
which several of Williams' plays,
given out at the secret drill, were
tried. Felton, regular end, will not
play on Saturday. Vanver and Ecliley
are given first choice at his position.
It was announced that Jamison, reg-
ular left tackle, would be out of the
game until the end of next week.
Princeton, N. J., Oct. 7.-In the
scrimmage of one hour held today, the
second string men arranged their

FOR SUCCESS Of TEAM
Pep sessions to be Held Before Games
With M. A. C,, Syracuse and
Cornell
Michigan's gridiron warriors are
not to lack real, red-blooded support
from the stands in the critical mo-
ments of the season's big battles, if
arrangements started yesterday by the
Board of Directors of Athletics in their
first meeting of the year, do not go
amiss.
It is now planned to hold rousing
"pep" sessions on the evenings be-
fore the M. A. C., Syracuse and Cornell
games, when the student body will be
given ample opportunity to show the
Varsityhow keen is its desire for re-
venge on the Farmer eleven for the
unlooked-for occurrence of two years
ago, and on the other two teams for
last year's defeats.
Yells, songs and talks will comprise
a program destined to rip the lid off
all the pent-up enthusiasm which Wol-
YOST PUTS 24 MEN ON
FOOTBALL TABLE LIST
Coach Expects to Have Line .on Men
at Close of Next Two Weeks'
Practice Sessions
Following the contest with Law-
rence, Coach Yost announced that the
following 24 men would eat at the
training table:
Staatz, Whalen, Cochran, Howe,
Norton, Watson, Dunne, Zeiger, Maul-
betsch, Benton, Smith, Bastian, Roehm,.
Hildner, Catlett, Raymond, Sharpe,
Calvin, Johnson, Reimann, Warner,
Rehor, Millard and Niemann.
In addition to this list, the follow-
ing men have been retained on the
Varsity squad: Eberwein, Ingham,
Brazell, Pobanz, Hendershott, Boyd
,And Bixler.
The work of all the men will be fol-
lowed closely in the next three games,
particularly that of the quarter-backs.
Coach Yost said last night that all of
them would receive thorough trials in
the next two weeks and that by the
end of this time he would have a& fairly'
accurate line on their ability.
When Coach Yost sent his first string
men away for signal drill, Staatz and
Dunne vere at the two ends, Boyd and
Watson at tackle, Cochran and Nor-
ton at guard, Howe at xcenter, Roehm
at quarter, Benton and Maulbetsch at
half, and Smith at full. 'Maulbetsch
dropped out after the squad had cov-
ered the length of the field a few
times, Calvin running in his place at
half. The coach kept the men work-
ing at top speed, and when a halt was
finally called no one heard any of
them volunteering to do throe laps on
the running track for exercise.

Farrell and Captain Smith Want
Events, But Athletic Board Bars
Interclass Games
From the present outlook it appears
that there will be no relays during the
Cornell game on Nov. 6. Coach Far-
rell and Captain Smith both believe
that the inter-class event should come
off at that time, but the Board in Con-
trol of Athletics seems -to look with
disfavor upon the relays which have
always been held between halves of
the Penn game.
Capt. Smith is anxious that the re-
lays be held, in order to get a line on
the freshmen, and also to look over
any new men who may show ability.
In past years the winning team has al-
ways received class numerals, thus
getting track men interested and the
season started..

back department was somewhat unex-
pected. Roehm seemed to get away
well, and he kept the team traveling
fast while calling signals. Bixler and
Sharpe were also given opportunities
at the quarterback job. Both of these
two men have been working at half
more regularly than quarter of late,
as the lot of running the squads has
fallen to Zeiger, Calvin and Johnson~
The coach stated last night that it
was his intention to work "Buzz" Cat-
let at quarter when he appeared. Cat-
lett played this position during his
freshman year and will not fall in as
an absolute novice.
It was originally Yost's plan to stage
a few minutes of scrimmage. between
the Varsity and the scrubs, but when
he dispatched the trusty "Germany"
Schulz to the enemy with the defi,
his first lieutenant returned with word
that the challenge was refused, as the
scrubs were without signals. This de-
fect will be remedied at once so that
the Varsity will not be deprived of the
practice that seems necessary -at this
stage of affairs.
"Jack" Bento4 lifted a couple of
punts yesterday that recalled the -days
of "Larry" Splawn. Even. though
Splawn could out-punt Benton from 10
to 15 yards, "Jack" will prove a much
more valuable asset in the backfield,i
as between punts Splawn's presence
on the field merely complied with the
rules which call for 11 men on each
team. -

plays according to the Syracuse for-
mations. The Princeton Varsity found
little difficulty in penetrating these
plays and gained steadily. Coach
Rush, expecting a hard game against
the Orange, tried several new combi-
nations today. He took Halsey from
the tackle post on the seconds and
placed him on the Varsity during the
scrimmage. The shift is not thought
to be permanent.'
Tibbott played at quarter for Ames
and Plick, who are resting up. Ames
will probably start Saturday's game
at this position.
Philadelphia, Pa., Oct. 7.-Because
of the wet and slippery condition of
Franklin Field, no regular scrimmage
was held today. The team was run
through signal drill and tackling prac-
tice with the dummy.
Wray, who, has shown some apti-
tude in determining from his position
at center the opponent's plays, prac-
ticed signalling to his team the direc-
tion he expects the play to come.
Berry will not play Saturday because
of a twisted knee he sustained yes-
terday.
Cambridge, Mass., Oct. 7.-Rollins,'
breaking through the entire scrub
team, made one of the two scores for
the Crimson regulars with a 40-yard
run through the middle of the field.;
The second score was made by Win-
gate on two long journeys down the
field. The coaches consider King the
best ,line bucker on this year's squad.
Enright, who is expected to prove a
capable running mate for Captain Ma-
han, is out of the game for a short
time.

verine rooters have ,been accumulat-
ing since the passing of the 1914 sea-
son. John W. Finkenstaedt, '16, and
Sidney T. Steen, '16E, are now busy
making arrangements for the first af-
fair.
Tbe chief difficulty found with mass
meetings in the past has been the
handling of the crowd, for in spite of
the size of 1-ill Auditorium, more per-
sons have sought admission than could
be cared for. The student body, towns-
people and out-of-town visitors could
not be accommodated with a 5,500
seating capacity, and this condition
led to the adoption of a system of dis-
tributing tickets for the meetings last
year, which did not prove altogether
satisfactory. It is the desire of the
Board of Directors to formulate some
new plan to do away with the difficul-
ties along this line, and for that pur-
pose a committee composed of T. Haw-
ley Tapping, '161, Boyd M. Compton,
'16, and Ray J. Mills, '16L, was ap-
pointed yesterday.
WORK KEEPS CAPTAIN REINDEL
FROM FALL TENNIS CONTESTS
Ira Reindel, captain of the 1914 ten-
nis team, will be unable to enter the
fall tournament this year. He still
has half a year of work to finish and
will in all probability act as an assist-
ant in one of the departments of the
University at the same time. His loss
will be felt greatly, but it will also
give some of the new men a chance
to show what ability they have to bet-
ter advantage.

FOLLOWING THE YOST-MEN
By Hal Fitzgerald
Trainer Farrell announced yester-
day that Phil Raymond would not be
out until some time next week.
At last! Only yesterday a nice new
"bear" story escaped from the Aggie
camp, thus indicating that the M. A.
C. press agents have finally rounded
Into mid-season form.
When one watches that team sprint
up and down the field for three hours
or so each afternoon, he is led to
suspect that the Michigan Union mt
employ about three cooks per one-half
athlete.
We've long suspected that M. A. C.
was rapidly becoming of major league
caliber and now the evidence is at
hand. Mass meetings have been call-
ed for the evenings before the Syra-
cuse and Cornell games, and now one
is ordered before the struggle with
East Lansing.
One of the prominent members of
the engineering faculty spent yester-
day afternoon reviewing the team on
Ferry Field. When he suggested to
"Germany" Schulz that the squad
wasn't in'tip-top shape against LAw-
rence, he started a bigger argument
than he anticipated, too.
"Joe" Ufer failed to put in an ap-
pearance as assistant cheer leader
last Wednesday, but claims he will be
on hand for tomorrow's game. To
prove matters, "Joe" admits that she's
finally gone home, and won't be back
to in-terfere with stern duty again
until the game with Cornell.
