Tad Wieman, star full back, captain
elect for 1918, and ex-member of the
class of '19, is now one of Uncle Sam's
flying men. With a record of being
one of Michigan's steadiest and best
liked football men, he is now trying
out for the camp team together with
six all-American stars, at Camp Dick,
Dallas, Texas..
Wieman, who gave up the captaincy
of the varsity football squad this year
to enter the service, is specializing as
a bombing aviator, and will soon be
transferred to Ellington Field, Hous-
ton, Texas, where he will receive spe-
cial training, preparatory to being
commissioned.
At the same camp with Wieman, Pip'
Sparks, '19, the sensational Michiganl
quarterback, is also trying out for the
camp team. Wieman played full back
while with the Michigan team. He
enlisted at the close of the football
season last year.
Hockey Is Proving
Popular For Girls
Archery, tennis, walking and hockey,
with hockey as the most popular of
the four, are the sports offered for
women in the University this year.
One of the four is compulsory for
first and second year girls and must
be elected. Senior and Junior girls
are at liberty to sign up for a course,
or not, as they see fit. According to
reports from the physical education
department for women, hockey is by
far the most popular of the four
sports.
Information on the work is ready
to be given out at Barbour gymna-
sium. It is expected that within a
short time the athletics for women
will be in full swing.
RESERVE SQUAD IS
EVENLY BALANCED
The reserve football squad was
given a good work-out yesterday aft-
ernoon, which ended in a tight scrim-
mage. The varsity, engaged in7'signal
practice, did not have a chance at the
scrubs yet there were enough reserves
for two teams and a little game was
staged.
Before the contest began the two
teams went through some signal prac-
tice with the aid of the assistant
coaches. Before the elevens had play-
ed for any length of time it could be
seen that they were evenly matched.
The contest continued with neither
of the opposing elevens' line being
threatened. The only way that either
team could gain its yards was by line
plunges. The scrimmage ended when
the men had to leave for mess.

MEN ASKED TO REPORT AT
FERRY FIELD CLUB HOUSE
Workout for Would-be Track Men to
Be Held Daily During Good
Weather
If you are interested in track work,
you will report at once to Doc May
at the club house at Ferry field.
A call for candidates for the track
team was issued yesterday by the
trainer, despite the fact that it is
early in the year. Doc May is of the
opinion that an early start is worth
while, and he is anxious to get his
candidates on the field, to give them
the outdoor training that the weather
now affords.
Report at Once
Men who wish to take advantage of
the opportunity to get some fall prac-
tice are asked to report at once. Lock-
ers will be assigned to them and they
will be fitted out with the proper
equipment, any day but Saturday.
The trainer proposes to put the
men through a course of preliminary
work that will give him an idea of
the material there is in the school. He
thinks that there is a lot of it, and
with the proper handling, some big
things can be produced.
Men in the S. A. T. C. especially,
who will be granted a special time for
practice as are the football men, are
urged to come out.
"It is. not only going to give the
track team a start, but it is going to
keep the individual in trim," is the
added inducement offered. "There is
no use in the fellows hanging around
the barracks during the recreation
period when they might just as well
be out getting some good training."
Doc May emphasized the- fact, how-
ever, that it would be necessary for
all candidates to report regularly for
practice every night if they wanted to
get anything out of it, for he said
they will get rid of the men who are
just taking up locker space.
No indoor practice will be taken up
because of lack of space, yet the train-
er is of the opinion that a great deal
of progress can be made while the
weather permits. The men will receive
the same care as though they were
under Coach Farrel, and the same at-
tention will be paid towards the work.
It is proposed to develop a champion-
ship track team should there be any
chance at the game at all, this year.
New Material
Doc May is of the opinion that a
great deal of new material will be un-
earthed if the men respond to the
call as they should. 'Every male in
the University is eligible to try out.
Every branch of track work will be
taken up.
Sedgewick will handle the long dis-
tance runners, as captain of the team.
Carl Johnson will be in charge of the
hurdlers, sprinters and broad jump-
ers. Messner and Buell will take care
of the middle distance runners and
Cross will be in charge of prospective
pole vaulters.
The shot put and hammer work
will be under the direction of Wil-
liams and Baker.
It is the idea of the training scheme
to keep the men doing something all
of the time, thus keeping them in tip
top shape. A large number of candi-

Fines Bootleggers with the Goods
Three men chraged with bootleg-
ging were fined this morning by
Judge Sample in circuit court. Frank
Everly, of Detroit, was fined $100 and
costs, and Giaconno Jenna, of De-
troit, in whose automobile Everly was
taking a trunk full of whiskey to De-
troit, was fined $10 and costs. Everly
had the whiskey shipped here from
Toledo.
The other man, William Oborske, of
Detroit, found with 12 quarts of whis-
ky in a suit case, was fined $100 and
costs. He also bought it in Toledo
and was taking it to Detroit.
Chief of Police O'Brien explained
that officials in Monroe county search
every person going through there from
Toledo to Detroit and bootleggers have
taken to coming through here.
All the whiskey which is confiscated
is turned over to the University hos-

Owing to the number of applicants,
the Student's Directory will be put out
unless wartime activities prevent it.
Prof. E. R. Sunderland of the Board
in Control of Students' Publications,
says that the small number of regu-
lar as well as the lack of men to do
enrolled students' work, had made its
suspension seem advisable.
