The final figures were 36 to 0. The mere score is really an insig- nificant and minor detail in many re- spects, for it wasn't simply an accu- mulation of points that pleased the' coach and Michigan followers, as much as it was the gratifying im- provement in every department. The line mnwas opening much bigger holes than it provided for the boys carry- ing the ball last Wednesday, and all of the backs plunged.through repeat- edly for big gains. "Rummy" Roehm handled the team in a decidedly cred- itable manner during the time that he was in, while Sharpe performed well during the few minutes allotted to him during the last half. "Jack" Benton kept himself in the limelight continually, and Maulbetsch acted just'like the "Maullie" of yore, which is - equivalent to writing vol- umes. "Pat" Smith proved more or less conclusively that he isn't a much over-rated athlete, and "Pat's" rating is rather high just at present. Benton drew the center of the stage, right off the reel. "Jack" kicked off, and then hurried down the field and nailed the man with the ball. When "Rummy" Roehm picked a forward pass out of the atmosphere a moment later it was Michigan's ball. Benton dropped back and neatly booted a goal from placement from the 38-yard line, and Michigan chalked up three points. Michigan scored a touchdown short- ly afterwards, when Bentor, and Maul- Detsch collaborated and produced a couple of beautiful dodging runs. "Jack" intercepted a pass and rax 15 yards to the 37-yard line. "Maul- lie" dodged, squirmed, twisted and fought his way down to the one-yard line in one of the prettiest runs of the day. The team lined up, the "Dutch- man" caught his breath, and then ploughed over. Benton goaled. Realizing that they were far out- weighed, Mount Union resorted to the aerial attack early in the game, and it literally rained forward passes when they had the ball. At one time during the struggle they completed three in a row, but a five-yard pen- alty placed them one yard behind the point from which they started. SPRINGFIELD HOLDS MONSTER MASS MEETING TO ROUSE "PEP"' Complete reports from all commit- tees engaged in the Michigan Union's nation-wide campaign for $1,000,000 will be received on Friday, when the 30-day canvass will be half over, and those in charge of the work are con- fident that by that time close to $500,- 000 will have been subscribed. An- other report will be asked for on Oc- tober 20, and daily reports will be sent in during the closing week of the campaign, when, the final effort will be made to raise the huge sum. While many committees have not been heard from since the last figures were given out, the most recent avail-' able totals place the Union contribu- tions at°$250,000, exclusive of student subscriptions. Counting the money received from students, the grand to-' tal amounts to $350,000. Sprg'field held a monster mass' meeting last night, with representa- tive alumni from central Illinois pres- ent to keep the enthusiasm of all for- mer Michigan men in that section of the state stirred up, and with a large' committee hard at work, the district is sure to be heard from before the; end of the month. The local committees all over the country are racking their brains to devise new means to keep the Union workers going at top speed, for, with but four weeks in which to raise the immense sum, those in charge of the' campaign realize that it will take the1 united efforts of every one of the 3,000 men engaged in the work to make the clubhouse a reality. The Detroit committee has already raised $102,000 of its $250,000 allot- ment, and the workers in the state metropolis are confident that they will be able to turn in the remainder of' the quarter of a million dollars by October 30. The Detroit committee has organized the work by classes, with 16 committees appointed to work among the alumni classes graduating from 1890 to 1915. TWO BIBLE STUDY CLASSES TO START IN ,HARRIS HALL TODAY "Comparative Religion" and "The Bible as a Book of Life" are the sub- jects of the two religio.us study classes that will be inaugurated at 9:30 o'clock this morning in Harris hall. The classes will be under the direc- tion of Prof. Campbell 1onner, of the Greek department, and Prof. Leroy Waterman, of the department of Se- mitics. KAISER REPORTED TO HAVE LEFT FOR FRONT AT SERVIA DISPATCH SHOWS GRAVITY OF SITUATION IN THE 'BALKANS GERMANS GAIN IN BELGRADE FRENCH CLAIM TEUTONS ARE USING DEADLY GASES AGAIN IN CHAMPAGNE Amsterdam, Oct. 9.-The gravity of the situation in the Balkans was shown by a report that Kaiser Wil- helm left today for the Servian front. A dispatch from Sofia today said that Czar Ferdinand will act as com- mander-in-chief of the Bulgarian ar- mies in the Balkan strife. War Min- ister Kehoff will serve as field com- mander. Germans Advance in Belgrade Berlin, Oct. 9 (wireless via London) -A dispatch says that the invading German forces have succeeded in tak- ing the greater part of Belgrade to- day. Co-operating with them, the Bulgarian army has destroyed most of the railway connections between Belgrade and Saloniki by blowing up a large bridge at the latter city. Germans Lose on Western Front Paris, Oct. 9.---A statement given out today by the French war office announces that the Germans have lost heavily in their attempt to regain the ground lost in the Arras region about Loos. Columns and mass formations were tried by the Teutons, but only at one point were they able to recover any of the lost territory. In the Champagne region the Ger- mans are again using shells filled with asphyxiating gases, the statement con- tinued. On the western border of the Ar- gonne the activity of the French bat- teries silenced the German cannonade against the French trenches. In Lorraine the Germans sent out a number of strong reconnoitering forces to attack the French troops in the forest of Parroy, but were com- pletely repulsed. MACK ND KAN[ EE TO FILLVACANT MUNION VICE-PRESIDENT POSTS Ne-t ly-Appointed iien Will Appear on Board of Directors at Next Meeting UNIVERSITY 'WOMEN ALLOWED BE'ITER CHOICE FOR TICKETS STUDENT REPRESENTATIVES TO HOLD REGULAR SESSION ON MONDAYS Members of the Michigan Union Board of Directors gathered in the smaller banquet hall in the clubho'mse yesterday noon for a luncheon, after which they held an important busi- ness meeting, the first of the univer- sity year. To fill two vacancies among the Union departmental vfce-presidernts, Francis F. Mack, '16E, was appointed vice-president for the Colleges of En- gineering and Architecture, and Frank J. Kane, '16D, was named vice-presi- dent of the combined departments, which are the dental, pharnic and homeopathie divisions of the univer- sity.

Gault, '17L, and. Membership Chair- man D. R. Ballentine, '16, to arrange for the house-to-house canvass booked for Wednesday and Thursday nights. Late last night the membership totals were boosted close to the 1,900 mark, which falls more than 100 short of the last year record at this date. Approximately 100 committeemen will serve in the house-to-house in- vasion of the city's rooming districts, and letters will be mailed out to these men some time today or tomorrow. The men in charge expect to carry the figures well past the 3,000 mark before 10:30 o'clock strikes Thursday night. The traditional committee or- ganization of 10 sub-chairmen with their committees has been altered this year, so that the five Union vice-presi- dents will lead the work under Gault and Ballentine. The campaign among the faculty has been tentatively postponed until after the close of the building cam- paign, but every male student on the campus will be interviewed during this week. The names of a portion of the house-to-house committee are as follows: Delos Smith, '17; James Bulkley, '17; John Neumann, 17E; Gordon Mack, '18; Harry Wasson, '18; William S. Dinwiddie, '18A, and C. S. Scribner, '18E.

The Mount Union offensive was built around this player, and justifiably so. Gletz proved an adept at receiving passes and no less proficient in throw- ing the same. Perhaps as spectacular bit of play as was staged during the afternoon was provided by Maulbetsch. Along in the second half "Maullie" ran 61 yards for a r'ouchdown, and it seemed as though about every man on the Mount Union team had to be dodged or bowled over by the German bullet before he attained the final stripe. Just to show that it wasn't an acci- dent, he duplicated later in the game, but was called back, since one 'of his mates transgressed the rules and (Continued on Page Three) Lyman Howe at the 'Whitney Picturesque Holland, quaint bridges, interesting Belgium, architectunait gems and statuary at the two Cali- fornia expositions, a ride on a sub- marine, a trip through the Panama Canal and other delightful and in- structive features will be presented by Lyman Howe at the Whitney October 19. WHAT'S GIONG ON "Largest as well as the oldest stu- dents' Y. M. C. A. in the country." This, according to the committee un- der the direction of Henry Rummel, '16L, will be the motto given to the 125 men who will gather at a banquet at Newberry hall at 5:30 o'clock Tues- day evening, at which time this year's "Y" membership campaign for 2,000 members will be started. All committees have been picked and the necessary plans gone over and determined upon. N. E. Pinney, '16, has been secured to act as execu- tive chairman of the campaign, while William Klinestacker, '16D, will serve as executive secretary. A ' special committee under the direction of Wil- lis D. Nance, '17, and Kemp S. Burge, '17, has been organized to make a spe- cial canvass of the fraternity men. Last year's plan of campaign will be followed out. The whole rooming section has been mapped out and the men will each be given one block to canvass. Former Student Leads in Examination William Conke, '15P, . of Lincoln, Illinois, stood highest in the recent Illinois state civil service examina- tions. While in the university Conke was admitted to Aristolochite pharmic honorary society. RED SOX TALLY TEN SAFETIES Victory Comes in Ninth, When Boston Twirler Singles, Scoring1 Gardnerl Philadelphia, Pa., Oct. 9.-Carri- gan's Red Sox made the count one and one by nosing out a ninth-inning vic-t tory over the Phillies in the second game of the series for the baseballe championship of the world. Foster twirled the entire route for the bean- eaters, letting the Quakers down witht only three hits, and capped the day'st work by hitting the single which re-t sulted in scoring the winning run. Hooper started things for his teamf by drawing a walk in the. opening in- ning. Speaker singled, sending Hoop- er to third. Burns pegged to second, where Niehoff caught Speaker in a comatose condition and put the ball on him. In the meantime Hooper had started toward home, and would have been an easy out, but Burns muffed Niehoff's peg, allowing Hooper to Score. Maver, for the Phillies, had the Red Sox swinging on his stuff in the next two. stanzas, striking out five of Car- rigan's men. Later Boston began to hit Mayer more freely, but the Phil- lies' pitcher ,kept out of the danger zone right up to the ninth inning. In the fifth Phifadelphia evened the count by pushing Cravath across the plate for their only score. "Gavvy"' led off with a two-bagger, and checked in when Luderus repeated wjth a dou- ble past Speaker in center field. Whitted, Niehoff and Burns went out in rapid succession, leaving Luderus to his fate on third.

Unrecognized General Calls Move the Worst Possible for Welfare " of His Country Washington, Oct. 9.-The United* States and the Latin-American repub- lics today officially sanctioned the recognition of Carranza as provision- al president of Mexico. A meetirgg was held here today, but the general opinion previous to the announcement was that the recognition of Carranza would not come until a later time. .The reason assigned for the de- cision made by the representatives was that Carranza is the only man in Mexico who possesses the essen- tials necessary for recognition as president. It was thought that he is the only man in the country who could restore and maintain peace. Although the matter has not been thoroughly discussed, Secretary of: State Lansing said that the recogni- tion of Carranza probably would mean the institution of all possible discour- agement to his opponents. The lay-. ing of an embargo on arms to Mexico is considered the most important aid, that can be given to the Carranza party. It is more than likely that Amer- ican bankers will be called upon in,. the near future to supply funds for putting Mexico on a firm financial basis. This duty naturally falls to the lot of the United States, as she is one of the countries vitally inter- ested in the settlement of affairs in Mexico, and also because of the fact that none of the European powers are in any condition to lend money for outside interests. El Paso, Texas, Oct. 9.-"I will fight to the end," announced General Villa today when he heard of the recogni- tion of Carranza as provisional presi- dent by the United States and Latin- American countries. He further said that Carranza's recognition 'was the worst possible move for the welfare of Mexico.
