Genuine, unharnessed "pep" is to
rule tonight's mass meeting in Hill
auditorium, and it is even expected
that Coach Macklin's crew in East
Lansing will hear and heed. Michi-
gan's cheering section is not to be
outdone in Saturday's contest at Ferry
field, and a program has been ar-
ranged for this evening's yell-fest
that will loosen up every loyal chard
in the university.
Promptly at 7:10 the doors of the
auditorium will be thrown open, and
the first of the crowd to enter will
be greeted by the Varsity band, which
will render selections of a nature in-
tended to put the crowd into a recep-
tive mood for the program to follow.
F. F. McKinney, '16L, who will pre-
side, will introduce as faculty repre-
sentative, Prof. R. W. Aigler. W. A.
P. John, '16, managing editor of the'
Gargoyle, will follow with a talk
voicing the spirit with which the stu-
dent body will back the Wolverines
i their clash with the Aggies tomor-
row, and "Jim" Watkins, of 1907 full-
back fame, will present the attitude of
the alumni and Michigan teams of the
past.
W. C. Achi, '17L, will introduce his
new Michigan march, accompanied by
the band. "Hal" Smith will be on
hand to lead the cheering, and will
rehearse the crowd in' some of the
good old Michigan yells which have
not been tried yet this year. Lyn-
don's = will complete the pro-
gram.
No person will be admitted to the
mass meeting who does not hold a
ticket. Men will exchange their cou-
pon No. 35, properly signed, -at the
Michigan Union from 10:00 o'clock
this morning until all are gone.
The 900 tickets covering seats in
the first balcony, which have been
set aside for the women of the uni-
versity, will be distributed in Uni-
versity hall between the hours of
10:00 and 12:00 this morning and from
1:30 to 3:30 this afternoon. The com-
mittee has promis6d to give the wom-
en an opportunity to show their loy-
alty to the team by giving several
yells, and they will no doubt occupy
the entire section reserved for them.
Alumni and M. A. C. supporters who
wish to attend the meeting should
procure tickets at the athletic asso-
ciation in the Ann Arbor Press build-
ing..

TONIGHT'S MASS
MEETING
~ ~ ~ ~
By J. C. B. Parker
Student councilmen took action
last night. in the movement to further
good sportsmanship on the part of
student x ooters and thus to assist in
building up a better and finer Mich-
igan spirit.
Their a ction took the form of a cir-
cular letter which was drawn up and
passed 'and authorized to be sent to
the different fraternities, house clubs
and so(ieties. Vhe letter is couched
in terras not coercive or dictatorial.
It merely is a suggestion and a plea
to the student body.
The context of the letter follows:
To the Student Body of the University:
Michigan has always been known
among universities as being a college
with 'not only a great reputation in
athletics but also with a reputation
for fairness and good sportsmanship.
It is a great thing to be a fighter
'and yet remain courteous and chival-
rous at the same time. Michigan, with
one or two exceptions, has always
been able to do this in the past.
Let's make it traditional!
To do this, it is necessary to make
every student feel his individual re-
sponsibility in doing his share.
We, therefore, ask everyone to do
his part in showing courtesy to visit-
ing rooters and teams.
Let's show not only the best teams
but also the best sportsmanship.
THE STUDENT COUNCIL.
Tonig ht' Michigan students will
meet ini Hill auditorium to help each
other acquire fighting spirit for a
loyal. support of their team at the
gamte against the Aggies tomorrow. It
ha'3 been planned to have one of the
sp.eakers talk to them on the subject
o f good sportsmanship and how nec-
assary it is to the good name of the
unmversity.

FIRST ISSUE OF GARGOYLE TO
GO ON SALE AT NOON TODAY
Michigan's Humorous Publication to
be Filled With Snappy Art
and Witty Quips
Noon today is the time set for the
appearance of the first issue of the,
Gargoyle, Michigan's humorous pub-
lication. Ten pages of snappy art-
work and more than the usual num-
ber of bright and witty quips and bits
of verse are said to go far toward
making this one of the best numbers
ever published.
A double-page drawing, entitled
"Traveling in the U. S. A.," is a clever
bit of work from the pens of Clark
Smith, ex-'17, and A. D. Conkey, '16.
The three-color cover design by C.
E. Yokubicek, '18A, is pleasing and
attractive to the eye.

Itlhaca, N. Y., Oct. 21.-Three thou-
sand students gave the Cornell teamt
a rousing send-off for the Cambridge

"It will take all that Johnnie Har-,

statement of Coach Sharpe. "I be-
lieve that in all my years of experi-
ence, I have never seen such material
as leaves Ithaca tonight. Every man
is prepared to do his best and we ex-
pect to bring back the football to add
to our collection of trophies."

Confidence in the success of the
Michigan Unions million-dollar cam-
paign took another jump yesterday
with the announcement that the grand
total had reached the $425,000 mark,
with the big New York alumni din-
ner scheduled for last night yet to be
heard from.
The alumni total of $325,000 is mov-
ing steadily upward, while the stu-
dent total of $100,000 is expected to
be increased considerably before the
end of the week. The final effort of
the campaign will be made next week,
when the leaders in the work are con-
fident that the grand total will equal
or even exceed the million-dollar
mark set as the goal of the 30-day
canvass.
Detroit Shows Rig Gain
Detroit shows the biggest increase
since the last reports were published,
the committee in that city having se-
cured an even $10,000 in additional
subscriptions during the past week.
The Detroit total is now $129,000, and
the maen in charge of the work there
are confident that they 'ill be able
to raise the remainder of their share,
which has been set at $250,000.

WORLD CONGRESS TO BE DIS-
* CUSSED; POLITICS NOT TO
FIGURE IN LECTURE
Definite information contained in a
telegram from William Howard Taft,
ex-president of the United States, says
that he will speak in Hill auditorium
either November 13 or December 10.
The earlier dates is practically cer-
tain of being chosen.
The Oratorical association and the
Women's league, which are handling
the arrangements for the coming lec-
ture, will be represented by commit-
tees in a joint meeting to be held
within a day or two. The date No-
vember 13 is expected to be decided
upon at this meeting. Other prepara-
tions, as fixing of the admission price,
entertainment of the visitor and the
like, also will be taken into consid-
eration.
Some phase of the ex-president's
views on world peace, a world con-
gress and national preparation will
undoubtedly be touched upon in the
lecture. But according to the speak-
er's custom since his retirement from
ofl^e, no politics will be discussed.
Mr. Taft's presence at Youngstowi,
Ohio, on the night before the 13th of
November affords Michigan the op-
portunity of securing the engagement.
Every other possible date before
Christmas has been filled except the
two offered to the university organ-
izations.

London, Oct. 21.-French and Brit-
ish troops numbering 400,000 will be
sent to the Balkans to-aid the Ser-
bians there and to start an invasion
of Turkey and Bulgaria. This decis-
ion was reached in this week's con-
ference between French War Minister
Millerand' and the cabinet military
committee. Serbia readily admits her
plight and the arrival of the allied
forces will be anxiously awaited.
On the east the Bulgarians have
taken a number of towns, and the
Austro-Germans have succeeded in
cutting off the communications with
Saloniki at two different places. Ser-
bia is in a desperate condition. The
Bulgars will make an effort to pre-
vent the entrance of the allied forces.

Arms will be allowed to pass into
Carranza's territory.
