arty Response from Old
Gridiron Stars

MINNESOTA
INST FIRST TEAM

In ready response to Michigan's S.
S. Jim Watkins and Fred Lawton
Detroit reached Ann Arbor before
e practice on Tuesday, while the
hNetic association received an in-
x of telegrams to the effect that the
xt two' days will bring. almost a,
'zen more former gridiron stars
xious to help Yost in his prepara-
ns for Minnesota.
While Harry Hammond, Babe Mus-
r, Squib Torbet, Bottles Thompson,
id :Prentis Douglass form the only
Antet, whose appearance has been
ranfeed there are many others who
o confidently expected and but three
grets had been received yesterday.
om Hammond, Cap Ranney, and
em Quinn were located in points too
stant to justify the trip. McMillen,
itterson, Heston, Pattengill, Licht-
ir, and Picard are among those who
aye not replied as yet but are ex-'
>cted before the whistle on Satur-
y. .,
Old Boys to Inspire Fight
In addition to giving new angles on
.e Wolverine team, the returning
q" men are looked to for an inspira-
on of fight which will prove Yost's
rongest weappn against the Gopher
vasion. It is the objoct of the staff
key Michigan's eleven to the high-
t pitch before the finale, which will
ean so much to the Maize and Blue'
cord.
Tuesday's practice on a snow-swept
eld proved one of the longest and
ardest of the year. Mather's fresh-
en, with the Minnesota plays, were'
nt in against the Varsity and emerg-
without decision. Play throughout
e scrimmage was of an even char-
ter with Dunphy of the yearlings
wining consistently on the Gopher

NIGHTLY WORKOUTS
BEGUN BY MATHER
With the football season drawing
to a close and interest beginning to
slacken, the center of athletics is
moving from Ferry field to Waterman
gymnasium, where a squad of about
50 men have been drilling for basket-
ball under Coach Mather.
The squad has been practicing for
three weeks now on the fundamentals
.of the court game but commencing
last night regular work-outs will be
held every night. Until now it has
,been thought that too many men of
varsity basketball ability have been
;tied up with football practices every
'afternoon but in the near future this
handicap will be removed and noth-
ing will hinder basket men from 'pro-
ceeding with the actual- preparation
for the Conference games.
The coach will utilize all the time
available as the longer the team has
to prepare, the better are the chances
for Michigan to turn out a champio#-
ship five. Basketball is a compara-
tively new sport in which there .has
'been varsity competition for only two
years at Michigan, but there is no
reason why the team this year can-
not be a real contender for the title,
.as there is a great deal of excellent
material and the team is being drill-,
ed under a new coach whose spez
cialty is turning out winning basket-
ball fives.

Rye's.l lenef actors
Remain Incog nito
Lying day and night on an "in-
clined plane" with his head resting
',t the bottom, Harold Rye, Varsity
end, who broke his thigh in the 0..
S, U. game, smiles gladly when a
visitor enters his room in the Uni-
versity hospital. In spite of the fact
that his fracture has ,lad to be set
numerous times, Rye has stood the
strain well.
The thing that bothers him most
now is the identity of two mysterious
visitors who bring him thoughtful
gifts nearly every day with a note
signed "Two Spectators." Although he
has repeatedly asked them to come in
and see him they prefer to remain
unknown.
There are a good many other peo-
ple, too, who have thought to bring
him little presents and these all help
to make his convalescence a little
more pleasant.
TED KANN COM NG
HERE NEXT MONTH
Ted Kann, famous swimmer. and
holder of the congressional bravery
medal, will give an exhibition swim,
Friday, Dec. 12, in' the local Y. M. C.
A. At this time Matt Mann will bring

troit Athletic club for a meet with the
Varsity swimming team.
Kann was awarded the congression-
al medal for saving a ship. He dove
into the opening made by the shell
and succeeded in stopping the leak.
Kann is recognized as one of the pre-
mier swimmers of this country.
Such stap's as Robertson, All-Cana-
dian champion. and former captian of
the Yale aquatic aggregation, will
compose the team that will accom-
pany Mann.
Miss Woodbridge, of Northwestern
high school and Miss Curtis, of North-
ern high school, both of whom were
runners-up in the Middle Western
swimming meet, will be on the pro-
gram also. They will entertain the
audience with some of the spectacular
swimming which they exhibited in the'

COHN CARRIES BALL LENGTH
OF FIELD IN SIX END RUNS
A whirlwind drive in the first few
minutes of the game gave the Laws
the long end of the 6 to 0 score and
the campus football championship
yesterday. Taking the' ball on his
own 15 yard line, Cohn in six long
end runs put the ball on the lit two
yard mark. Here the Lits held for
three downs, but Cohn finally plunged
through the line for the only counter
of the game-
At the start of the game it seemed'
as if the lawyers were greatly supe-
rior in all departments -of the game.
They outplayed the Lits on both of-
fense- and defense, and gained around
the ends and through the line at will.
The law forwards put the lit line out
of every play, and the legal backs.
went through until stopped by Jack
Dunn, who got nearly all 'of the tac-
kles made by his team in this period.
Lits Lose Chance to Score
Play was even in the second quar-
ter, but the Lits lost their best chance
to score when a punt that rolled back
to the Law 10 yard line was fum-
bled. Cohn was stopped consistently
by the lit ends, and the rest of the
legal backs. were unable to pierce the
lit .defense.
The Lits had another chance to count
at the start of the second half when
Dunn ran back the ball 40 yards to the
Law 5 yard line. It was the longest
run of the game. The law line held
for four downs, and the ball went
over w'rhen a pass to Perrin went over
the goal line, inc. plete.
The rest of the game was remark-
ably even. At the close of the game
the Lits were fighting on the law 35
yard line. Dunn made several ,long
runs, but lost ground on account of
two poor passes from the center.
The Lit play in this period was the
best of the game, only hard luck pre-
venting them from making a touch-
down.
Cohn and Dunn Star
There were only two outstanding
star's, Cohn for the Laws and Dunn
for the Lits. The lit backfield, the
strongest in the series, was not up to
previous standard, Dunn and Perrin
being the only men to gain consist-
ently through .the law line. The Lits
tried several passes, all of which
failed.
The 'team work of the Laws was the
'strong feature of..their game. They
gave Cohn a good opportunity to get
started on his long runs, and covered
the lit formations well, giving the
literary backs little opportunity to
get away for gains. Freeman, right.

The member of the Weston-Knode
pair which is not delegated to general
the team will fall back to halfback as
a running mate for Sparks. Cruse
appears as the best bet for fullback
but may share the responsibility of
this position with Stuart or Eades,
both of whom played in the Illini dis-
aster, but fell to the fate of center on
defense and, as the story goes, did
not receive the opportunity to leave
the central berth.
Line Unsettled
Rapid substitutions -during scrim-
mage sessions indicates that the Wol-
verine line does not justify even a
guess at present. Captain Goetz will
face' tie invaders from left tackle and
Vick will probably pass the ball back
on defense and roam on offense, as in
the -Illini game. Dunne, Peach, Wil-
son, Henderson, G. Dunn, and Czsyz
have been tried generally in the for-
ward wall but have not reached final,
allocation by any means.
Yost turned further' attention to
fundamentals on Tuesday and kept
the linemen engaged in blocking tac-
kling, and charging, while the back-
field and flank possibilities ran
through a long session in forward
passing.
WILLIAMS TO WORK GOPHERS
HARD Ulf UNTIL DEPARTURE
Minneapolis, Nov. 18.-Coach Wil-
liams will scrimmage his men until
the moment they leave for Chicago,
Wednesday night. They will go from
there to Detroit on Thursday night,
after drilling in Chicago.
The only shift that is likely to take
,place is Enke for Gerow at right tac-
kle. Gerow has been under the weath-
er lately, although he has appeared
on the field. Williams expects this
Michigan game to be the biggest of
the year, notwithstanding the fact that
both teams have been beaten more
than twice. The ancient rivalyy will
more than 'make up for the previous
records of either team.

Wilce Sends Buckeyes Against Fresh
Columbus, Nov. 18.-Out on Ohio
field tonight Coach Wilce inaugurated
a practice system that is expected to
bring the championship to the Buck-
eye institution. The men were work-
ing long after the lights had been
turned on, and it was late when the
Varsity was driven against the fresh-
men. The first year team stood up
well under the dashes of the regulars,
the yearlings using the Illinois plays.
Holteamp is the only man on the
team notincondition, although all
of the players feel the effects of the
game at Madison last week.

Applications for military credit now
in the hands of Dean John R. Effin-
ger number more than 300. The credit
will be given within two weeks, and,
the same policy whicherihas'determin-
ed the amount of credit already
awarded will be followed.
