False accusations to the effect that
he was shirking his duty were denied
by Lieutenant George Sisler, '19E,l
former Varsity baseball pitcher, when
stories to the effect reached his ears.
Although the star, who had been
connected with the pitching staff of
the St. Louis Browns, was receiving
special training at Mackinac island,
false rumors to the effect that he was
hiding in the Hog Island ship yards
were circulated abouthim.
Due to his special training in chem-
istry received at the University of
Michigan, the star was given his com-
mission in the chemical service of the
army.
While at Michigan, the stellar base-
ball man was the idol of the campus
with his ability at playing the mine
man game. His remarkable pitching
for the Varsity nine won him a place
with the St. Louis Browns, where he
has made a wonderful record. With
Ty Cobb, the batting expert, he ap-
plied for a commission in the army.
FLU EPIOEMIC KILLS
FIRST NOTEMBER GAME

RAIN DOES NOT STOP
FOOTBALL PRACTICE
SIGNAL DRILL, AND LINE WORK
FILLS DAY FOR GRID
MEN
Despite the downpour of rain dur-
ing the late part of the afternoon yes-
terday, the Michigan football men
were at Ferry field going through
their usual daily practice.
In there squads, the gridders were
lined up with, Coach Yost in charge of
the regulars, Assistant Coach Doug-
las in charge of the line men, and
Coach Mitchell inacharge of the
line men, and Coach Mitchell in
charge of the scrubs.
Signal Work
The hurry up man had the first
string bunch in one corner of the
field, running them throughnsome
signal work, teaching 'them a number
of new plays and getting them in
shape for anything that might turn
up.
Coach Douglas had a number of the
prospective line men at work bucking
each other around the field in an at
tempt to show them the best way to
get through the line of the opposition.
Mitchell has his bunch doing the same
thing, probably tuning them up for
some opposition that the Varsity will
furnish for them later.
New Plays
Coach Yost's inventive mind has
been hard at work during the lull
caused by the influenza epidemic.
Taking advantage of the time thus
thrust upon his hands, he. has been
working out some new plays that will
be used to advantage against whatever
opposition is given him.
Jordan, the little fellow who carW
to the rescue, when Smith the sub-
stitute quarter left for West Point, is
being developed in material that will
probably be able to pilot the 'team,
in case of necessity. Knode the first
string quarter is in tip top shape,
able to use his brain with a wonder-
ful degree of certainity.

S. A. T. C. OFFICERS I
GET BAYONET DRILLi
The officers of the S. A. T. C. start-
ed daily bayonet drill yesterday un-
der the instruction of Captain Dur-
kee. Captain Durkee has had former
experience in bayonet instruction at
Camp Sherman, Chilicothe, Ohio. The
officers are progressing rapidly in this
activity, as the new system being used
is but little different from that em-
ployed in their previous instruction at
Fort Sheridan. They are fortunate
in possessing for their drill a sufficient
number 'of the Enfield rifles such as
the American army is using in France.
It is intended to give to all mem-
bers of the S.. A. T. C. instruction in
bayonet work as soon as enough rifles
arrive to equip the men. Co. "6" has
already a number of Russian Three
Line rifles, and Co. "15" has been is-
sued 150 Winchesters and Krag-Jor-
gensons. Engineers, medical students,
and others not eligible for officer's

trainng camps will be given rifles at
a later period, as it is planned to give
to the men selected for training camps
as much of this training as possible'
before they depart.

No Game For a Month
The effect upon the Michigan foot-
ball team can hardly be stated. It
will mean that the Varsity players
will not have met any outside oppo-
sition since the Case contest, Oct. 12,
or nearly a month.
Although efforts to get a game for
the Wolverines for this Saturday were.
under way, they will probably be use-
less, also because of the order.
It is with keen disappointment that
the cancellation of the Northwestern
game is accepted by Michigan fans.
The Yost machine of this year, it is.
said, wouldamake the Northwestern
team look green, could they have met
them. The hopes of the Mai ezand
Blue to wipe out the defeat at the
hands of the Evanston team last year,
this season are shattered as a result
This makes the second contest that
the influenza epidemic has interferred
with. Despite the fact that Michigan
was to meet her old rival, the Mich-
igan Aggies, last Saturday the game
had to be postponed because of the
governor's proclamation prohibiting
public gatherings.
To Be Played Later
Yet the M. A. C. game is not de-
.finitely cancelled. It is hoped by au-
thorities that he game may be played
at some later date. Although Nov.
23 has been suggested a sa suitable
time for the contest, Athletic Direct r
Bartelme refused last night to make
any statement regarding the date.
The date would be ideal to attract
a large crowd, it is thought, because
it would be played on the Saturday
preceeding Thanksgiving.
Coach Yost will keep his men on
the field daily, despite the state order
stopping games, that the Varsity men
especially, may be kept in trim for
games to be played later.
Gains Repute for Course in Aviation
Great Lakes Naval Training Sta-
tion, Ill., Oct. 23.-Great Lakes Avia-
tion Unit is fast becoming, important
as a marine training center. Twenty-
five marines arrived there Saturday
to attend the Armorers School Avia-
tion.
This is but one form of the many
compliments that the station is con-
stantly receiving on its instruction
for aviation schools. It is expected
that the weekly drafts will continue to
arrive for some time.
Marine students are constantly leav-
ing Great Lakes Naval Training Sta-
tion for active service, after complet-
ing their course of instruction in the
aviation schools.
