Philadelphia, Pa., Oct. 8.-Ability,
to hit in the pinches, the showing by
Grover Cleveland Alexander of brainy
pitching without extending himself,
and fielding which bordered on the
sensational, enabled the Phillies,
champions of the National league, to
take the first game of the world's se-
ries title from Boston, the American
league's representative.
It was a lack of these qualities for
the most part which spelled defeat for
Carrigan's men. They could not pro-
duce hits when most sorely needed,
taking little advantage of their many"
opportunities. Shore, who opposed
the men of Moran, blew iii the eighth
inning and alowed two runs to score.
Up to this time he had more than held
his own with the master, Alexander.
The game might not have been de-
cided in the eighth had not Scott,
shortstop of the Boston outfit, pulled
the "boner" which seems to character-

with a
nt from
a week
Several big tobacco concerns have
been interviewed and have promised
large supplies of "fuel" for the annual
football smoker, booked for a day or
two after the final fall football battle.
Paul Thompson, '16L, is in complete
charge of the affair, which Is staged
under the direction of the Michigan
Union, and for the past week he has
been laying preliminary preparations
for the event. The main feature of
the program will be the presentation
of the "Ms" to the Varsity regulars
and the "Rs" to the reserves, a cus-
tom originated at the smoker two
years ago.
Bleachers will transform into an
amphitheatre the main floor of Water-
man gym, provided nothing interferes
with holding the event in that cus-
tomary place. Between 2,000 and
2,500 men will be accommodated.
Negotiations are now pending for se'
curing speakers of the caliber of
Judge Thompson, of New York state.
Coaches, the ex-captain, and captain-
elect of the gridiron squad, men
prominent on the campus and popular
professors will be called upon for
"pep" talks. The full program, to-
gether with the large number of com-
mitteemen needed to carry the pro-
ject through, will be published within
a week or 10 days.
UPHOLD MICINS HONR
REPRESENTATIVE STUDENTS ASK
UNDERCLASSMEN TO PRESERVE
PRESTIGE OF UNIVERSITY
'o the Student Body:'
Michigan has recently figured prom-
inently in the editorial, columns of
some 300 papers and magazines. The
university is. still being closely
atched, and for this reson it would
be especially harmful to have reports
of underclass rowdyism in Ann Arbor
circulated throughout the country.
Events of the last two nights show
a tendency toward this state of af-
fairs, and in an effort to head off
tioble an appeal is being made to
all undergraduates to put reason
above rowdyism. A single riot will
do more to 'injure Michigan's prestige
at this time than could be repaired
in another decade.

,men will receive thorough trials at
the job.
The coach stated that it was his
intention to use all of his quarter-
backs this afternoon against Mt.
Union. This will almost mean a
steady procession of pilots on and off
the field, as he has seven that are
available. "Rummy" Roehm will
head the list, and he will be followed
by Zeiger, Bixler, Sharpe, Catlett, Cal-
vin and Johnson, before the game is
over. In just what order these gen-
tlemen will make their appearance is
OPEN HOUSE AT UNION
DRAWS RECORD THRONG
More Than 1,500 Students Gather at
First Big Social Event
of Year
Open House at the Union last night
proved a success when over 1,500
packed the Union hall and stacked
away 504 gallons of 'apple juice. Ed-
ward J. Crumpacker, '16E, chairman
of the Union program committee, was
toastmaster at the get-together gath-
ering. He first introduced Leroy Scan-
lon, '16L, who, with the help of the
piano, put the party in the highest of
spirits. #
When the freshmen, who had just
arrived from their meeting at Hill
auditorium, had removed their hats,
Chase Sikes, '16, led everyone in some
of the good old songs. After snappy
selections by "Ike" Fisher's orchestra,
Prof. J hn R. Allen, of the mechanical
engineering department, spoke "espe-
cially to the, freshmen." He told them
that one thing i:* particular to re-
member was that no man was ever
educated in college.
W. A. P. John, '16, editor of the
Gargoyle, was the next entertainer.
After bringing forth 89 laughs he
spoke seriously to the first year men,
concluding: "I know ,you will be
proud of Michigan, because there isn't
a thing in the world of which man can
be more proud."
The final speaker was Prof. Robert
Buhker of the Law school. He first
welcomed the newcomers "to Michi-
gan's past for the heritage it offers,
to her present for the opportunity it
affords, and to her future for its hope
and promise. You freshmen are the
beneficiaries of a rich heritage at
Michigan, and I beg of you to do all
in your power for her honor."
Dean D. Butts, '19, the "Dark Horse
Wonder" from the University of Chi-
cago, climaxed the program with an
unusual performance at the piano.
AUTOMOBILE LABORATORY TO
BE PREPARED FOR ENGINEERS
Display Cases Will be Constructed on
Which Parts of machines
Will be Shown
Faculty and students interested in
the automobile courses. given in the
engineering college have been grant-
ed the use of the old university boiler
and power house near the engineering
building for an automobile laboratory.
The front portion of the building will
be used for offices and the rear space
for testing rooms. When the plans
of the department are carried out, it
is expected that the engineering col-
lege will have one of the best college
laboratories in the country for auto-
mobile research.
The construction of the building is
such that it will lend itself easily to
adaptation for the laboratory pur-
poses. The old gallery running
around the large boiler room will
have an outside entrance on the south
side of the building and will be open

FLOCK TO UNION OPEN HOUSE
Michigan men of 1919, the ff'esbimen,
took their first course in Michigan
customs and traditions last night in
Hil auditorium. They learned, from
men who know, a part of what is to
be expected of them during their col-
lege career at the university, and
more than that, they received the cus-
tomary bits of advice and warning
with a genuine enthusiasm.
And still more, after the meeting
was over the whole, body of first year
men, 1,000 strong, put their newly-
learned preachings to practice, and
passed up the idea of a rush-party at
the campus vaudeville theater to at-
tend the monster Open House night
at the Michigan Union.
Francis T. Mack, '16E, was chair-
man of the freshman meeting, and
Dean Henry M.. Bates, head of the
Law school, who was the only fac-
ulty man on the program, headed the
list of speakers. Dean Bates asked
the freshmen to keep the reputation
of the university constantly at heart,
and he made it clear that no period
was ever niore delicate than the pres-
ent, when the university and her
Union campaign were receiving the
attention of the whole country to an
extent that has never been duplicated
by any other single institution.
Student speakers were present to
tell of Michigan institutions and cus-
toms. Louis C. Reimann, '16L, presi-
dent of the university Y. M. C. A.,
told of the work of that organization,
