Following the parade of the Varsity band around the campus, the meeting was opened at 7:30 o'clock by Paul Eaton, '21, president of the Union, who acted as chairman. Eaton introduced Carl T. Hogan, '20E, after Varsity Cheerleader Cuthbert had led the crowd in yells. Hogan, remembered as one of the best of last year's speakers, roused great enthusiasm in his audience with his inspiring words. The necessity of backing up the efforts of the Varsity with a maximum of constructive en- thusiasm was his talking point, which found favor with his hearers. - Hogan continued, stressing the ne- cessity for supporting the twice de- feated Michigan eleven, which is play- ing Chicago for the first time in 16 years on the Michigan field. This is' cause for the utmost determination ons the' part of every Michigan student, the determination to win, and avenge the effect of the 'previous defeats, on' the part of all students of the Uni- versity is needed a great effort, an' effort to back up what 'the alumni have done for Michigan in gettin. athletes here. Michigan students must' keep these men eligible so that they can put forth their best efforts for the University., Frank Murphy, '14, spoke from the alumni standpoint. -Mr. Murphy i' one of the hardest workers for Mich- igan and Michigan athletics, his ef- forts being mainly through the De- troit Alumni association. "The oath taken by all Athenian youths to leave Athens 'better, finer. and more beautiful/ than they found it' is inspiration enough for Michi- gan students. It is the duty of every man and woman in the University t follow this idea and do his or her best for Michigan," was Murphy's message. From the first cry of. "coats" the crowd, which completely filled thr auditorium, overflowed with pep. New yells were tried, and -the indivdual pictures of the Varsity players thrown on the screen, were cheered The Varsity band opened the meet- ing with the "Victors" and "Varsity" and ended with the Michigan hymn. "The Yellow and Blue." Several new songs were tried out for the game tomorrow. Red Cross Roll Call Next Week, The Red Cross membership roll call is to be held on the campus next' week. Hazel M. Whitland, '21, has charge of the women's division.

To date the Wolverines have the edge on their opponents from !the Windy City, having won nine games to Chicago's seven. In points Michi- gan shows an even greater superior- ity, the count beig 184 to 115. How- ever, the Maroon team has the honor of having won last year, 13 to 0. Whether the 1920 season must be ,onsidered a wholly unsuccessful one from a Michigan standpoint will be 'letermined this afternoon. If the Yostmen can put across the victory which the whole student body is pull- ing for, the chances of beating Min- nesota next week will be greatly en-' 1'anced because of the increased con- fidence which the team will acquire. Two victories at the end of the sea- son would do much toward taking the bad taste of the Illinois and Ohio eames out of the Michigan mouths. After all, it would be no disgrace to finish the season with victories against all but the two best teams in the Conference. o (Continued on page Three) Medal Blanks Supplied by Red Cross' Any ex-service man who wishes td apply for a Victory medal mayobtain the necessary blanks at the Red' Gross office in the Bornwell build- ng. corner of Fourth and Huron streets.

The United States Marine band, rec-" ognized as the world's greatest con- cert band, will give Ann Arbor music patrons a rare treat at 8 o'clock to- night in Hill auditorium in the form of a very, unique ensemble and solo program arranged for the occasion. Consisting mainly of well known and treasured selections. this concert is destined to be the most popular of the season. Has World Wide Reputation The United States Marine band has been in existence for more than a century and has gained a world wide reputation. Its members are all men of ability and reputation, while the average time of service of the mem- bers is eighteen years. This with the regularity of rehearsals has given them unity of ensemble which does not ordinarily exist among bands. Its Ann Arbor appearance was brought about through the joint nego- tiations of the Chamber of Commerce and the University School of Music. Program Announced The program follows: Overture, "Tannhauser," Wagner; nocturne, "Dream of Love," Liszt; cornet solo, "Arbucklinian," Hartman (musician Arthur S. Whitcomb); "In- vitation to the Dance," Weber-Wein- gartner (transcribed for band by Wil- liam H. Santleman); prologue. "Oag-j liacci," Leoncavallo; concerto for twol violincellos, Kummer, (musicians Fritz Mueller and Gerold Schon); "Southern Rhapsody," Hosmer; Sec- ond Polonaise," Liszt; "Star Spangled Banner." - CHIMES FEATURIS YOST'S PICTURE With a photograph of Coach Field- ing H.

WOLVEINE RUNNERS MEET ILINOIS TODAY Headed by Coach Gill and Captain Allman, Illinois' cross country team arrived in Ann Arbor last night for this morning's hill and dale battle with Michigan's harriers. The Illini are confident of victory, for, though they were beaten by Purdue as was Michigan, they put up a far stiffer race. Other than Allman, whose name is known to every Conference track enthusiast, there is Dusenberry a man whose running was to a large extent responsible for the Illinois vic- tory in the Conference meet last year. While there is no doubt of the fact that Illinois is represented by a strong squad, Coach Farrell is far from beaten. Captain Brannan and his men are determined to wie out the Blue and Gold victory of las year, and this determination may b( a large factor in the final outcome o the race. The men will go on their marks at 10:45 this morning at the Homeop- atic hospital, and the event shoulr' be over 30 minutes later. It is hoped that a big crowd will be out to give the Wolverine harriers their sup- port. A lumni Gather r'orHomecoming Gathering from far and wide to see the Wolverine eleven go into bat- tle with Chicago this afternoon, thou- sands of graduates are expected to make today one of the greatest Mich- igan homecomings. The advance guard, eager to catch the old time inspiration at last night's pep meeting, came into town yester- day afternoon and evening, and by noon Ann Arbor will be in complete possession of the invaders. Fraternities have made prepara- tions to entertain an unusually larg number of guests. Requests for rooms at the Union have been pouring in for some time, and rooms in private residences are at a premium. Have Printed 4,000 Programs Printing of the 4,000 athletic pro- grams was completed yesterday by the Ann Arbor Press, and copies were on sale on State street during the after- noon. The price of the program is 2F cents. Additional copies will be sold at Ferry field this afternoon p-eced- ing the game.

R. W. AIGLER EXPLAINS PLAN USED BY ATHLETIC AS. SOCIATION SOPHS TO AND FRESHMEN TO MARCH FIELD AFTER DONNING PAINT SHUTTLE RACE, OTHER GAME, USED BEFORE Entire Student Council with 36 or 40 Upperclassmen Will Officiate MEETING PLACES l WILL ISSUE EXTRA Containing a running story of the Chicago game, The Daily will have an extra on sale at the Ferry field gates a very few minutes after the final whis- tIe blows this afternoon. Efforts are being made to run I the edition off the presses in the shortest possible time. In spite1 of the attempt at speed the ac- count of the contest will be play- by-play and complete in every j respect.' Editor The Michigan Daily: A large number of people, alumni, students, faculty, and others-have been greatly dsiappointed by their in ability to get tickets for the Chi- cago game. May I take this oppor- tunity to say that everybody connect- ed with the affairs of the Athletic as- sociation regrets that the situation is such that these disappointments are unavoidable. The plan for ticket distribution for this game was precisely the same as that which' has been followed for many years in the big Homecoming games. While soma: inevitably got the poorer seats, the plan generally =peaking worked to the satisfaction of the applicant for accommodations. Office Swamped The wholly unexpected and un- nrecedented demand for seats for the Chicago game literally swamped the Athletic association office, making it necessary to cut down and refuse ap- nlications, much to the disappoint- ment of those who count;u upon be- ing cared for. Apparently it would have been possible to sell 50,000 tick- ets had they been available. It should "iot be necessary to say that these refusals were made entirely imper- 'onally and impartialfy. The basic idea of the present plan has been to give to each group - the alumni, students, faculty, andf supports of the visiting team-an ,even chance. Space is roughly -ap- nor~ioned to each group, and within any such group the practice has been and is, first come, first served, so long as the tickets last. The only de- -arture from the order of preference based on order of receipts has been in the student group in which there were made sub-groups based on num- her of years on the campus. Thus a student who has been here two years will ordinarily get a better seat than another who has been here only one, even though the latter's application was in earlier. Revision Necessary The present experience has shown very clearly that there must be a rad- ical revision in the plan for the fu- ture. It is probable that it will be concluded that the limit in number of tickets purchasable by any one per- son must be materially reduced from six, its present figure, with prefer- ence of course as heretofore to stu- deats, alumni, and others connected with the University. It will be neces- sary also to give serious considera- tion to the possibility of adding to our present seating capacity. -(Signed) BOARD IN CONTROL OF ATHLETICS. By Ralph W. Aigler, Chairman, Board in Control of Athletics. Classes will meet on the cam- pus at 9 o'clock. Sophomores-In front of Tap- pan hall. Freshmen-In front of the Li- brary. Student councilmen will meet at Ferry field at 9 o'clock. Rivalry which has been nourished in the bosoms of the two under class- es will be loosed with Vigor this morning and for the first time this year the classes of '23 and '24 wille have an opportunity to match their prowesses. After falling in on the campus and donning+the red and green fighting paint, the two classes will march in body to Ferry field, where officials will take charge and conduct the an- nual fall games. Pillow Fight First Game The first game will be the pillow fight on the greased bars. There will be nine individual pillow fights and a class to win this event must take five out of the nine. Men for this contest were picked by the class cap- tains yesterday afternoon. The team winning this contest is to be award- ed one point. The second game is to be the shut- tle relay race, which will also count one point. There will be 20 men on each team in this contest, 10 on each side of the field, and the object is to relay the flags with these men, the class bringing in their flag first to be declared the winner. Sophs to Guard Cane The third and last game will be the cane contest. A cane will be given to the sophomores and they will in turn form around it and attempt to hold it against the attacks of the freshmen until the 15 minute period is over. The class possessing the cane at. the end of 15 minutes will be de- clared the winner and will be award- ed one point. The entire Student council will of- ficiate at the games and in addition there will be between 35 and 40 up- perclassmen, other than the council- men, on hand to guard against slug- ging or other foul practices. Old Clothes Suggested All participants in the games must wear tennis shoes and it would be advisable to wear old clothes. If the games can be started by 9:30 o'clock, they should be over by 11:30 o'clock, which will give everyone time to get ready for the Chicago game in the afternoon. Herbert G. Dunphy, '23, is captain of the sophomores and Harry Kipke, '24, is captain of the freshmen. The Student council committee in charge is as follows: Chairman, C. G. Wet- zel, '21E, John Cary, '22L, George'Dut- field, '21, Roswell Dillon, '21E, and George Gregory, '22E. ?oster Appears, Campus L.irns That Freshmen Haven 't Grown Up Remember the dear old high school -well, we hope Frank Murphy did- days when we used to convene in the n't see any of them. morning to the tune of "Good Morn- The poster invited the' sophomore ing Dear Teacher?"
