A A A-d A V JL.L a MCHIGAN OUT TO CONQER ILINOIS (Continued from Page One) A comparison of the two teams re- veals a slight advantage in favor of Illinois. Since Coach Zappke does not weigh his men it is hard to com- pare the elevens as respects avoir- dupois. However, there is no doubt that the Indian line outweighs the Michigan forward wall anywhere from five to ten pounds per man. The av- erage weight of the backfields is very nearly the same, Bobbie Fletcher and Jack Dunn, both being small men, while the other backs on both sides weigh between 165 and 180. Taking it all in all there is not enough dis- parity in weight, unless it be in the center of the line, to make any mate-j rial difference. Battle Between Lines A battle royal Is expected between the twp lines. Both of them have shown great defensive strength this year, although Illinois has had more chance to show its actual power thanE has Michigan. Carney, the Indian left end, is like- ly to cause the Wolverines much trouble. He has the reputation of be- ing one of the greatest receivers of forward passes in the country and is a strongrdefensive end to boot. Hell- strom, the other end, is a new man. Captain Depler, at center, who tips the scales around 205, will be another tough proposition. Four stars will be behind the Illin- ois line. The two Fletchers, Wal- quist, and Crangle are playing togeth- er for their second season. The team play which this quartet has developed is one of the biggest advantages which the Illinois team will have over the Wolverines. Comparison Favors Ilni Man for man the Michigan team does not look as strong as the Illin- ois outfit. We cannot boast such a star end as Carney, nor such a quar- tet of backfield stars as the Indians have. The middle of the Michigan line is lighter, but appears just as strong as that of the opponents. Michigan will have the psycholog- ical advantage, however, of playing on her home field. Furthermore, the Wolverines will have more incentive than any Michigan team in recent years. On this game will depend the success or failure of the 1920 season, and on this season depends the ques- tion as to whether Michigan is to continue to hold her ancient high place in western football or whether she will henceforth be rated as a second rater. The game will start at 2:30 o'clock Central standard time, 3:30 o'clock Ann Arbor time. The 'officials for the contest , are as follows: Referee- Horatio B. Hackett (Army); um- pire-Anthony Haynes (Yale); field Judge-J. W. Means (Pennsylvania): head linesman-James G. Dirfies (Wil- liams).

COMPARISON OF TEAMS IMPOSSIBLE, SAYS ZUP ILLINI ELEVEN NOT OVER CON. FIDENT - INDIAN MENTOR "We have had no way to make a comparison between Yost's team and mine. My scouts who saw the Mich- igan Aggies in action against Wis- consin and Michigan report that Michigan looked much stronger than the Badgers. Beyond that I know nothing of the local team's strength and can make no statement about the outcome of the game," was Coach Robert Zuppke's comment on the probable result of today's battle on Ferry field. "I will state definitely, however, that we are not over con- fident. We realize that we are go- ing into a hard game." 1919 Backfield Back Sitting on the sidelines at Ferry field yesterday afternoon while his charges were going through light ex- ercises in the hot sun, Zuppke kept up a running fire of comment that threw some light on the makeup of his team. The fact that he has the entire backfield that carried the Illi- ni to the Conference championship last year in addition to the left end and Captain Depler, center, indicates that the little mentor may have de- veloped a team as strong as the 1919 aggregation. The additional fact that two of last year's regulars have not made a, position this fall does not weaken that supposition. When asked for a list of weights of the men who will start for Illinois today Zuppke commenced on a sub- ject that appears to be a strong point with him. "I don't take their weight," he declared. "If I did some of those light boys might not be on my teams. It doesn't matter to me how big they are. They have to play football." Zuppke Too Small This recalls the fact that back in his undergraduate days Zuppke was considered too small to hold own a position on his varsity team. For four years he worked on the scrubs sub- jected to the battering of the varsity, '(Continued on Page Six) CROSS COUNTRY MEN RUN COURSE TODAY This morning at 10 o'clock the Wolverine cross country candidates will be run over the course for the purpose of selecting the men who will represent Michigan at Purdue next Saturday. Reports from the Boilermaker camp indicate a strong squad, and Steve Farrell is leaving nothing undone to develop a team which will outclass them. While he believes this can be done, he is not too confident of the out- come of the race. The small num- ber of men who have turned out for the hill and dale sport this year makes it extremely difficult for a crack aggregation of harriers to be organized.

It is considered doubtful that any of the smaller colleges can pro- duce winning teams this year. Due to certain complications which have arisen, "Joe" Josephs, captain of the cross country team, will be unable to compete this season. This necessitates the election of a new captain, which will take place after the trials for the Purdue meet morning.

When Captain X found he couldn't re- plenish his supply of Pall Mall (plain ends) in the field, he began smoking the popular round cigarettes. Their shape gave him an idea. Back in America once more the Captain came and gave us his idea,-a big idea. He suggested that we make Pall Mall cigarettes round in shape, loosely rolled -a cigarette that does not have to be tapped, squeezed or loosened, a cigarette with a free and easy draught. A cigarette made from the famous Pall Mall blend of 42 Turkish tobaccos chosen for richness and delicacy of flavor.
