gan at Gathering
DEAN J. R. ANOELL, '90, WILL
ADDRESS REPRESENTATIVES
Rules Committee to Make its Annual
Report; Training'camp Re-
ports to be Discussed
The National Collegiate Athletic as-
sociation will hold its thirteenth an-
nual convention, Friday, Dec. 27, at the
Hotel Astor, New York City. The gen-
eral subject the meeting will consider
is the relation of intercollegiate to in-
tramural athletics. Michigan will be
represented by Director Philip G.
Bartelme and Prof. Ralph W. Aigler.
"The Reconstruction Progarm for
Physical Education in tie Colleges," is
the main address, to be delivered by
Dean J. R. Angell, '90, now of Chica-
go. It will deal with the problem of
securing a more general participation
of the student body in athletics, with
less emphasis upon stars and varsity
teams. Dr. G. L. Meylan, of Columbia,
will speak on "Physical Training and
Athletics in the French Army.".
Trainhig Camps Discussed
The adoption by the colleges of the
methods of the commission on train-
ing camp activities will be discussed
by Dr. J. E. Raycroft, Princeton, of
the commission, and by Capt. J. L.
Griffith, Drake, who has been in charge
of the work at Camp Pike. Dr. G. L.
Fisher, of the Y. M. C.- A., will also
speak.'
From press reports it is under-
stood that the eastern collegesrwill
decide upon their stand on the fresh-
man question while their representa-
tives are thus gathered together. This
question was settled in the west by
the action of the Conference. But in
the east, where organization is so
much looser, so clear cut a stand is
not expected, and it is thought that
it will tae quite a time for the differ-
ent institutions to straggle back into
line.
The football rules committee, of
which Dr. H. L. Williams, of Min-
nesota, is chairman, will make a re-
port, but no marked changes are ex-
pected. Repprts will also be receiv-
ed from committees on rules for
basketball, track, soccer, and swim-
ming.
Largest Association In World
The association is the largest ath-
letic organization in the country. It is
made up of representatives of all the
important schools, and from the var-
ious minor conferences throughout
America. Association committees
largely, form the rules for college ath-
letics. Though the organization has
no such powers as the Western Con-
ference for instance, its recommenda-
tions indicate the trend of college sent-
iment.
Dean S. W. Beyer, of Ames, the vice-
president, will preside over the ses-
sions of the association. The presi-
dent is Brigadier-general P. E. Pierce,
U. S. A., but he cannot get away from
his official duties at this time. Prof.
F. W. Nicholson, of Wesleyan, Conn.,
is secretary - treasurer. Director
George A. Huff, of Illinois, is repre-
sentative from the fifth district, which
includes Michigan.

SUPPOT TEAM" CACH
URGES STUDENT BUY
MITCHELL TO ANNOUNCE NAMES
OF MEN ON SQUAD TO.
MORROW
Tomorrow night will be the last
practice of the basketball squad until
Jan. 30, said Coach Mitchell last night,
while putting the boys through a hard
scrimmage. Names of the Varsity
squad will be announced after tomor-
row night's practice.
"The spirit from the student body
this year should be twice as great as
that evinced last year," the coach said.
It must be remembered that last
year's quintet was the first basketball
team that Michigan ever produced, and
it was seriously handicapped by lack
of basketball tradition.
"The spirit of the team in basket-
ball, more than in any other sport, de-
pends.upon the support of the stu-
dents."
The selection of the team will prove
interesting as the competition is
great, but fans agree that the possi-
bilities have sifted down to the fol-
lowing:
Forwards-Hewlett, Karpus, Born-
stein and Weiss; centers-Williams,
Loring; guards-Richener, Coh.n, Wil-
son, and Hinckley.
Cartwright and Cruse, on account
of their heavy academic work as sen-
iors in the engineering college, have
dropped out. The newest addition to
the squad is John Warrin, a member
of the last year Detroit Cass Tech.
team. He appears to have plenty of
promise and will undoubtedly be an
asset to the coach in Michigan's games
this coming year.
Pick- Ups
Definite plans for intercollegiate
athletics for eastern universities will
be discussed at a meeting of repre-
sentatives of the various universities
in New York on Dec. 27. It is ex-
pected that baseball, track, crew, and
the other spring sports will have al-
most normal seasons.
The chances for Yale - Harvard
hockey games for both the varsity and
freshman teams have been brightened
by the breaking up of the S. A. T. C.
Informal gymnasium classes which
proved quite a success at the Univer-
sity of Harvard last year will prob-
ably return after the Christmas holi-
days. The attendance at the classes
was voluntary as their purpose was
to give those desiring it a chance to
get some recreation.
New Mail Plane Lands In Ohio
Chicago; Dec. 18.-En route from
Cleveland to Chicago, one of the two
de Haviland airplanes was forced to
land at Defiance, 0., due to a broken
propeller. The two planes are to
start aerial mail serviec from Chi-
cago to New York.
The first trip will begin tomorrow
morning, according to O. J. Sproul,
head of the Chicago aerial mail di-
vision. A plane carrying 400 pounds
of mail left New York today on the
first lap of its flight to Chicago.
