E. McManis) For the second time in two years, the Conference football title will be decided by the game between Ohio State and Illinois, to be played this year at the latter school, a week from next Saturday. Experts now favor the charges of Zuppke to take the title, but not even the most optimistic follower of the Flue and Gold expect theteam to win without the hardest sort of a bat- tle. In addition to tihe danger of Ohio, Illinois meets Wisconsin next Satur- day in a game thdt may play some part in deciding the resting place of the 1920 crown. Illinois Can Lose to Badgers Should Wisconsin defeat Illinois, the Urbana team can still win by best- ing Ohio in the final game. This will give Illinois the championship in the same manner as it was won last sea- son= on percentage, As the State team is resting in preparation for the deciding game next Saturday, Illinois will have played one game more, and will have the higher average, in the event that both teams lose one game. Should Ohio win from Illinois the Wilcemen will be undisputed cham- pions pf the West. 3he fight o' the Cl icago team, that several timpes held Illinois for downs in dangerous territory, was the feature pf the game won by the latter eleven 3 to 0 on Stagg field, Saturday. Cap- tain Jackson, of the Maroo squad Tpre than pnce covered himself with glory by the manner in which he play- ed his position. Illinois' famous play the forward pass from Waquist to Carney, was in evidence, and good for tong gains, but with the hall once in the Midw.y territory, Illinois was un- ble to advance by any means what- ever, an only one of the three geld oal trid was good for points. This The Blue Front Cigar Store STUDENT OWNED grper of Stateand Packard one was enough to win the game, as Chicago could not score through the brilliant Indian defense. Field Goals More Important That field goals are coming to more and more importance in the winning of gridiron" games was borne out by the 3 to 0 defeat handed Minnesota by Wisconsin at Madison. Davies, a substitute half, booted the points that downed the Gophers. This game also shows tha*Minnesota is developing in the characteristic Williams manner, and by the close of the season will be a match for any team in the West. Northwestern presented little oppo- sition to the speedy Iowa eleven, los- ing 20 to 0. Aubrey Devine played the best game of his football career, but even without this the Hawkeyes would have taken the game. Two Last Games Hard Michigan willhave to put forth sup- erhuman efforts to win a game in the Conference this season, in view of the brilliant playing of the Chicago eleven, and the coming power of Min- nesota. One reason for the weakness of the latter team this year has been the illness of Arnold Oss. Despite an injured leg, and frequent periods of exhaustion, the mighty Minnesota half was the star of the Gopher-Badger game, and gained ground at will. Had he been in condition Wisconsin would have needed more than a field goal to win. Soccer Starts In P romising Style "Gosh! Basketball with your feet!" That and numerous other expressions of enthusiasm were prevalent yester- day afternoon on Ferry field when, with the opening game of the inter- fraternity series, soccer had its first formal introduction to the student body. That the sport has made a big hit is unquestionable, a4, if the two hotly conte ted games of yesterday are any criterion, it has come to stgy as an intramural actiyity.

FERRY, FIELD WILL BE SCENE OF TITLE MATCH UPPER AND LOWER PENINSULA CHAMPIONS TO CLASH THANKSGIVING Followers- of state interscholastic football will be interested in a deci- sion of the Athletic association to al- low the use of Ferry field for a cham- pionship game to be played Thanks- givingdday between the leading up- per and lower state elevens. It is hoped by the sponsors of this movement that the best team in each section will have been determined by the last of the month so that the long debated question of a state high school champion may now be definite- ly decided. It has been the custom for many years to ignore the upper pen- insula when advancing claims to the state title but the proposed game will, for the first time in years, decide a real state champion. In the upper state race there are but three teams still in the field: Me- nominee, Calumet, and Sault Ste. Ma- rie. Calumet and Menominee meet on Nov. 0, so that one of them will be eliminated in time to arrange a game with the third contender. Ev- ery team in the northern portion of the state has been planning on this chance to play on Ferry field all year and has arranged its schedule accord- ingly. Conditiops is the lower state cir- cles are in a more chaotic condition and this fact is the only drawback to the plan. A number of teams step forth each year with a valid claim to the crown and it is an unusual sea- son when any one school has a clear call on the title. The Athletic asso- ciation in tendering the use of the Wolverine playground is taking no re- sponsibility in choosing the eligible teams. They will have to be decided by a clear process of elimination. In addition to the interest that nat- urally centers around the prep school struggle, Michigan athletics are great- ly benefited by such a proposition, as no few star athletes are thus inter- ested in the University. FOOUTBAL MEN STUT F PRACTICE__Fo HICAO' LIGHT WORK LOT OF PLAYERS YESTERDAY; CATCHING PUNTS EMPHASIZED Undaunted by its last quarter de- feat at the hands of the Buckeyes, the Michigan eleven yesterday began preparation for the difficult Chicago game Saturday. Team Out to Win "Beat Chicago" was the slogan of every man in the clubhouse and on the field. Only a light workout in passing, kicking, and blocking was given, the coach desiring to rest his men after the vigorous battle of Sat- urday and preferring to work his men gradually to a greater perfec- tion. To avoid a repetition of Saturday's fumbles Yost drilled his backs in catching and returning high and dis- tant spirals from the toes of Steketee and Van Orden. He sent the ends, backs, and even the linemen down under long forward passes to ac- quaint them with catching the ball and to get them running faster. Light Practice Held Last night's practice, which lasted well after the shades of night had fallen, was merely to limber up the Varsity. Several scrimmages against the freshmen and the Reserves are scheduled during the week of elabor- ate preparation for the Maroons, who come with a powerful defense, and hard practices with evening work are planned by Yost. Two more regulars will probably sit with Tad Wieman on the bench next Saturday. Jack Dunn, the dimin- utive quarterback, in addition to his lame knfs has a twisted ankle and is forced to use a cane in walking. When Cappon did not return to the Ohio game the second half, it was thought that his bad ankle might keep him out for the rest of the season, but Billy Fallon, rubber, promises to have the end in first rate shape for Chicago. While Tad Wieman's knee is progressing so well that he made his first appearance on the field last night, it is probable that he will be (Continued on Page Six) Class Toques. Special price $1.00. J.
