V YOST PECKS OUT SQUAD FOR WINTER WORKOUTS IN ATRMgAN GYM Football Men to Meet Tice a Week Until Spring to Keep in Fit Condition All-American Team of 1915 Strong in Any Style Game CHOOSES CLA SS SQUAD FROM INTER- AND ALL-FRESH TEAMS COACii PREIvTS GRIGAT TiAMIF MEN KEEP UP IN STUDIES AND PIT PHYSICALLY Coach Fielding H. Yost yesterday decided upon the squad of men which is to receive the benefit of the winter workouts in Waterman gymnasium. The indoor training starts next week, and efforts are now being made by the athletic authorities to distribute the men in such groups as can best meet together. Notices were sent out yesterday to each man on the list, re- questing that he send his schedule of classes back to the Athletic associa- tion with the least possible delay, in order that the footballers may be put in their respective squads. The squads will meet twice a week until spring practice, and will receive instruction in various lines of gymnasium work, which is calculated to keep the ath- letes physically fit throughout the off season. Michigan will probably have an ex- tremely hard schedule ahead of her next fall, and it is especially desirable that every man who has any football ability whatever keeps himself physi-, cally fit, and at the same time does his school work so that he will be scholastically eligible to compete for Michigan next fall. The men who were picked for the gymnasium squad have been chosen both from the best of the inter-class gridders and those mn of this year's All-Freshman team who show the most promise -of developing into Varsity material. The "M" men on this year's squad will assist in the instruction of the younger men. Coach Yost yesterday predicted that if the men named would do their ut- most to keep in the best possible con- dition physically, and at the same time hold their scholastic records above the dead-line, that Michigan would turn out an eleven next fall which would rival those of the palm- iest days of her athletic career. The men chosen for the indoor gym- nasium work are as follows: J. Maul- betsch, M. F. Dunne, J. L. Whalen, H. M. Zeiger, C. C. Smith, P. T. Raymond, Harry Calvin, Hoyne Howe, J. H. Sharpe, W. Neimann, F. L. Rehor, Al- Ian Boyd, R. F. Weske, H. W. Ewert, W. L. Peach, Joe Robins, E. E. Wei- man, O. G. Williams, B. L. Snyder, C. M. Sparks, G. H. Bevens, J. H. Hanish, F. B. Nash, C. A. Towsley, C. P. Beath, F. A. Willard, W. R. Johnson, E. A. Biber, A. W. MacLachlan, N. S. Thomp- son, A. E. Loucks, R. Glenn Dunn, David P. Wood, K. W. Mead, Will Schultz,' E. H. Meibeyer, John W. Ed- wards, 0. J. Watts, Frank R. Goetz, M. R. Brown, Don Bathrick, and E. E. Hawke. Yale Alumni Want Shrpe as Coach Ithaca, N. Y., Nov. 30.-Coach Sharpe, of Cornell, is the man wanted by Yale alumni to put the fallen Blue team back upon the football map next fall. Dr. Sharpe has told Yale men that he is under contract to coach football, basketball, and baseball' at the Ithaca institution until 1920, but it is rumored that Blue adherents will ask the Cornell Athletic association to release Sharpe from his contract.

Allen & Co., Main street. oct6eod (Copyright 1915 by the Central Press Association) Picking a high-class All-American team does not seem a difficult task this year. For each position one man stands out conspicuously-a man who has done brilliant work all season. In my selection I am choosing only men who play where the three-year rule is followed. It does not seem to me to be fair to include men who have had a chance to play in their freshman year. My team would be made up as fol- lows: Center-Cool, of Cornell. He is a wonderfully heady player, exception- ally fine on defensive work and in diagnosing plays. He has just finish- ed his third year, stands about six feet and weighs 165. Left Guard-Schlachter, of Syra- cuse. Height, six feet; weight, about 240. Very fast and aggresive on of- fenc and defense. Many of Wilkin- son's gains this seasan were due to Schlachter's opening up the opposing lines.- Right Guard-Spears, of Dartmouth. Height, five feet eleven; weight 220. Good all-round player, fast on offense and defense, tackling all over the field. Left Tackle-Buck, of Wisconsin. Height, "six feet two; weight about 200. He was captain this season, t playing his third year. He is a re- Y markable player, perhaps one of the best tacklers ever developed in the H west. Right Tackle-Gilman, of Harvard. i Height, six feet one inch;tweight, I 130. He played on the 1913 team, but i- was ineligible last year on accouut of scholarship, so this was his see- It ond season on the team. He kept up r CONYVENTION HONORS TRUEBLO 01) Appointed to Committee for Pirifica- tion of English Language Professor T. C. Trueblood, of the oratorical department, returned from Chicago recently, where he was sig- t nally honored by being appointed a ir member of a committee for the puri- t fication of spoken English, at the con- ic vention of the National Council of a Teachers of English., d Professor Trueblood's part in the ti program consisted of the reading of t a paper devoted to "A Discussion of - Expression for Teachers of English." He recommended a liberal education for anyone intending to teach this course, which would include sciences-, languages and philosophy, in addi- tion to the fundamental courses such as rhetoric, English, and the history of English literature. The committe to -which Professor Trueblood was appointed a member, has for its object the standardization of the pronunciation of English. They hope to accomplish this in part thrbugh the phonograph, for which records giving examples of the best spoken English will be made and dis- tributed throughout the country. President Sends Message to Printers Washington, Nov. 30.-President Wilson sent his address for Congress to the public printer this morning.
