1918. THE MICHIGAN DAILYPAGE * i rr ' .- r . -TTY " TOTALKATHLETICS AT NTIONALMEET ,Athletic Director Bartelme and Pro-. fessor Aigler to Represent Michi- 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. DOZEN HIGH SCHOOL GRID MEN AWARDED '18 LETTERS Following a very successful foot- ball season, the Athletic association of Ann Arbor High school announced the letter men of the 1918 squad yes- terday. Twelve men were awarded the double A. They are: Bennet Avery. Freeman Baylis, Col- onel Gillespie, Harold Cross, Harold Kleiss, Ralph; Lutz, John McGregor, Fredrick Novy, James Ramsey, An- drew Schaffer, Roland Schmid and Waldemar Schneider. Coach Raymond headed the committee that made the awards. Harvard is to have three terms this year. Efforts will be made to lessen the difficulty returned soldiers will have after being absent from school. The law school will have a special session starting Feb. 3 and ending Aug. 30, covering the usual amount of work. Kee p posted - subec ibe for the Paily, now $3.00.-Adv. 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. Daily want ads bring results.
