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- (Continued on Page Three) L. E L. T L. C C. R. E R.

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. HARRY G.* GAULT, '15-'17L. HAROLD SMITH, '16. . WERNER SCHROEDER, '14-'16L. FRANCIS F. McKINNEY, 16L. (Continued on Page. Six) ,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 .. { NNUALI CONVOCATION TO COME ON OCT. IN ILL AUITOIUM Dean M.

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.

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.
