and Blue in the very outset of the
contest. The result was such a flat
failure that the play soon became a
joke. Case persisted in using it a
number of times, yet not once, did it
bring them any results.
Two injuries were netted inn the
day when Doig of Case attempted a
flying tackle, and Usher of Michigan
sprained his ankle. Doig was knock-
ed unconscious when his attempt fail-
ed, and he was carried from the field
by team mates. His injuries are not
serious.
Yost, apparently, was satisfied with
the showing that his men had made.
Seventeen men were used by the
"hurry up" man, practically giving
every man on the squad a chance to
demonstrate his ability. The result of
the game will possibly mean the se-
lection of the first string men.
Open defense was used by both
teams, more effectively by the home
eleven, however. The Michigan ine
men were of the stone wall type when
an attack on their front was attempt-
ed by the opposition. Few if any
holeshcouldbe made in it.
Cohn pulled the long run of the
day when he went down the field for
fifty yards after having grabbed the
Case kickoff. He went down the
field like a speedway. car down a
straightaway course, without a Case
man able to stop him.
Although it had rained a little pre-
ceding the game, the field was ideal
in condition. The grass being a little
wet at- first felt odd to the gridders
but it soon wore off with the first few
minutes of play. Occasionally the sun
would come out brightly, but never to+
interfere with the action. A light
wind was blowing from the south-,
west but had no effect on the course
of the ball.-
The game was pronounced by spec-
tators as being far more interesting
than in previous years. Case's sevea
lettermen in their initial line up tend-
ed greatly to strengthen the team, yet1
they were unable to put a figure on
the score board, following their name.]
The game by quarters.
First Quarter;
Cohn received the Case kick off far
back in the field and advanced the
ball to the 50 yard line. Rushing the
line tactics were used by Michigan]
bringing it within a reasonable dis-
tance of the goal until Case tighten-
ed, and the ball went to them on
downs. Case fumbled and Fletcher of
Michigan recovered for 30 yards. Fol-
lowing this plunge through the line
brought the first touchdown by Cohn.t
The kick failed. Steketee replaced
Usher who was taken out with an
injured ankle. Cohn made a 50 yard
run, but the ball was lost to Case on]
a fumble. End of quarter-Score 6
to 0.
Second Quartert
Cohn grabbed a punt by Rogers of
Case and carried the pigskin 45
yards. Steketee then took the ball for
his first touchdown. The kick failed.
Michigan kicked off and held Case on
their own 15 yard line. Genebach was
then sent into the game for Perrin.
Wolf of Case made a pretty tackle
when he brought Cohn to the ground

after a 40 yard run. Attempted for-
ward passes in this quarter when the
ball came into the possession of Case
failed. Punts by Michigan advanced
the ball for thera twice when the Caset
men were unable to hold the ball. The+
half ended with the ball going to Case
on out of bounds. Score-12 to 0.
Third Quarter
Michigan kicked off but the ball
came back to them on a fumble. Per-3
rin, who had been sent back in the
game, carried it 40 yards. Line plung-
es netted Steketee a touchdown, and
he kicked goal. Perrin advanced the
ball and in attempting to tackle him,
Doig of Case was knocked uncon-
scious. Continual line plunges with a
sprinkling of trick plays featured the
remainder of the quarter with Case,
attempting the tricks. Nothing result-
ed from them. End of the quarter.
Score-19 to 0.
Fourth QuarterI
Steketee started things off fast by
jumping into the fracas for a touch-
down and a kicked goal. Michigan
attempted a forward pass, but it fail-E

In spite of the prevailing unset-
tied conditions on the campus the
plans for women's sports are pro-
gressing as in former years. Jane
Duemling, president of the Women's
Athletic association, states that the
fall sports will be conducted at Palmer
field after next week.HHockey will be
in charge of Grace Hall; archery in
charge of Dorina Norton, and tennis
under Emma Riggs.
Hockey teams will be picked from
the classes and trial games held when
practice gets under way. Extra days
of practice besides general gymnas-
ium work will be required for those
who wish to try out for the teams.
The juniors and seniors will be-given
ample time for practice and it is hop-
ed that many of the upperclass girls
will turn out. The championship
matches at the end of the season will
be held Saturday mornings if possi-
ble.
Tennis courts at Newberry residence
and those connected with Palmer field
are now ready for use. Besides the
court games in connection with the
gym work, a tournament will be held,
the blanks for which are posted in
the gymnasium. It is requested that
all girls wishing to enter, sign up
as soon as possible.
Saturday morning hikes will be re-
sumed under the direction of Helen
Masters. These are scheduled for 9
o'clock and generally cover 10 miles.
Basketball season does not start un-
til November. The games are in
charge of Ethel Glauz. Good attend-
ance and peppy contests are expected.
Military drill which was so success-
ful last spring, will be introduced
again this fall, and will be held on
Palmer field. It is expected that
about 90 girls will enroll for this, as
it has increased in popularity with
the arrival of military discipline on
the campus. The floor work in the
gymnasium will also be conducted
with military precision and form, un-
der the management of Miss Wood.
An important meeting of the Athlet-
ic association for the election of a
vice-president to fill the place of Dor-
othy Williams who is not returning to
school will be held this week. At
this meeting the schedule for the
games will be decided upon and plans
for a mass meeting discussed.
The association also plans a tag
day for more members some time in
December, when those who have neg-
lected to join may do so.

Captains Give Up
Football Hono r s
Two years in succession Michigan
has sacrificed a football captain to the
flying service of Uncle Sam, Coach
Yost announced last night.
With the start of the season of
1918 Captain-elect Tad Wieman has
been missed from the squad. Despite
the opportunities for football fame,
he, like Pat Smith, captain-elect in
1917, passed up the honors and has
gone to fight for Uncle Sam.
Both nen were of untold worth .o
the team, both being full backs of all
star team calibre. Although they are
gone from the Maize and Blue foot-
ball squad, it is assured that their
names will remain in the history of
the athletics of the school as fore-
most among the illustrious figures in
the Michigan hall of fame.

PATRIOTIC HITS

Cadet Beak Weston, one of Michi-
gan's:greatest football men, famed the
country over for his stellar game at
the pilot position of the Maize and
Blue squad when he was in the school,
has earned a similar reputation for
himself while at the helm of'the foot-
ball team of Chanute Aviation field att
Rantoul, Michigan.
The former Michigan lad who is
now in the service, training to do
some stellar acting for Uncle Sam was
immediately drafted onto the camp
football team when it was discovered
that he was in the school.
Without delay the quarterback be-
gan his old time style of game, and is
now recognized as one of the foremost
then on the aviation camp eleven.
The Chanute team was scheduled to
play the University of Illinois foot-
ballers yesterday. Criticisms on the
aviation team give Weston as the
probable shining light of the contest.
Weston was quarterback on last
year's Michigan varsity and left the
school later in the season to become
a flyer.
blocked a pretty forward pass, jug-
gled it a minute, and to the amaze-
ment of the Case men who surround-
ed him, wriggled over the line for a
touchdown. Michigan was later pen-
alized five yards for being off side.
At the end of thegame the ball had
gone to Case on downs.

Fire! Fire!
"And the bucket brigade must be
commended for its remarkably fast
work in extinguishing the blaze."
* No, this is not an account of some
farm fire, but is the result of an al-
leged blaze in the north bleachers of
Ferry field yesterday afternoon. We
say alleged because the blaze itself
could not be found.
Some enterprising college chaps
should learn to recognize the rays of
the sun.

"Hike!" and they scattered over the
field, shook themselves and scatter-
ed back again.
"What is that, a Chinese puzzle?"
muimured some-ignorant(?) football
fan in the crowd.
Watch! The mystic puzzle reveals
itself. With the calling of numbers
preceding the "Hike" and a suddan
snap of the ball, it is recognized that
it is a trick play.
But trick plays come to naught.
Michigan gridders were the opposi-
tion. "Hike, Case, Hike."
WARTIME S P I RI T
ON FERRY F I E L D
. Michigan football took on a mili-
tary air yesterdaynafternoon at Ferry
field when the entire students' army
training corps marched to the field
and took seats in the bleachers, to
view the Case-Michigan game.
The Mechanics also filed into the
south bleachers, their khaki uniforms
conspicuous against the gray concrete
background. The S. A. T. C. men,
not yet in uniform, make up a motley
yet very military looking body.
Cheering was at its best, consider-
ing that the attendance was not over
4,000.
Captain R. H. Durkee, commandant
of the University, together with prac-
tically all of his staff were interested
spectators at the game. Few Case
rooters accompanied their team to
Ann Arbor.
Former Student is Reported Missing
Corporal Leslie Shapton, ex,-'20, has
been reported missing in action since
July 26. Corporal Shapton, a mem-
ber of the 18th company, fifth regi-
ment, United States marines, en-

declared. His home is in Charlevoix,
