PROF SADLER ILEAYES
FOR MEETING -IN Na Y.
WORK IS ON COMMITTEE CHOSEN
BY PRESIDENT
WILSONV
Prof. H. C. Sadler, head of the de-
partment of Naval Architecture and
Marine Engineering, left for New
York Friday to attend a meeting of
the United States government com-
mittee on bulkheads and freeboards
appointed by the secretary of com-
merce.'
Before the war no definite load-
line had been established for cargo
vessels. As soon as the United States
entered the president 'appointed a
commission to establish one. How-
ever, as Professor Sadler explained
in an interview, such a late start had
been made that it was decided to
adopt loadline standards sat by Great
Britain.
After hostilities ceased a commit-
tee was appointed which met for the
first time last May. The country was
divided up into three districts or sub-
committees: Eastern Coast, Great
Lakes, and Western Coast. Besides
being on the general committee, Pro-
fessor Sadler is also listed as chairb
man of the Great Lakes sub-com-
mittee.
Different problems! confront each
district due to different types of
steamers employed on the Great
Lakes and the coasts. Professor
Sadler says several years will be
needed to establish best results for
loadlines of each particular case.

"The Play's the Thing"
"As Shakespeare said, 'The play's
the thing.' There is a greater de-
mand for good plays today than ever
before. It is true that more plays
have been brought out in New York
in the past few years than it was
thought safe a number of years ago.
It is also a known fact that the
greater majority of these plays were
run into the storehouse after a very
brief life on Broadway. The produc-
ers are constantly crying, 'Give us
more good plays that will stand the
test of time.'

FAILURE TO BOOT GOAL COS'S
WOLVERINES TIE
GAME
ILLINI SHOULD REPEAT
1919 GRIDIRON VICTOkY
Indian Offense Better Than That of
Yostmen, with Defense
Even
Illinois' powerful eleven nosed out
the Wolverines, 7 to 6, in a game filled
with thrills and good football yes-
terday afternoon on Ferry field. The
failure to ,kick the goal after the
sole Michigan touchdown cost Mich-
igan a tie.
The Illini outplayed the Yost men
throughout the game, particularly on
the offensive. Their touchdown came
as a result of a long steady march
down the field ending with a pretty
forward pass, Walquist to Carney foi
the score.
Jack Dunn was the Wolverine hero
of the contest. Intercepting a pass o
his own 25-yard line, the little quar
terback ran the length of the fiel
for a touchdown. The blocking of the
Michigan interference was the mos
spectacular feature of the whole
game.
Michigan's only other chance for
touchdown was prevented by the
tripping of Johnny Perrin by an Illi-
nois man when, he was well on hii
way to the goal. Although the 11
lini were penalized 15 yards Michi
gan was unable to carry the bal
further. Two attempts to score
from the field were niade by the
Wolverines, both from the 50-yard
line, Dunn missing a drop kick,' by a
small margin, and Steketee faillin
on a place kick.
The injury of Tad Wieman in thi
first quarter weakened the Michigal
line considerably, while the inability
to put Steketee in for the whole
game slowed down the offense. Fo
the most part the Yostmen played
straight football, while the oppa
nents opened up a variety of passe
and trick formations.
Despite the fact that Hellstrom
outpunted Jack Dunn consistently th
first half, the Wolverines managed t
keep the Indians at bay. During th
second half Michigan's kiicking wa
better, but the line began to weaken
under the terrific pounding to whic
it was . subjected by the Illinoi
backs.
