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.

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.'

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.
