Kalamazoo has always been noted for its powerful court teams and accord- ing to reports its team this year promises to be no exception. The Kalamazoo team is coming with a special incentive to win, as Coach Mather before handling the Michigan team was for five years head mentor at Kalamazoo, and to defeat a Michi- gan team coached by its former head will be the endeavor of every visiting player. Look to Stiff Contest Although Coach Mather is not afraid of the outcome, he is not underesti- mating the power of his former pro- tegees, and says that he is looking forward to a hard contest. The ini- tial appearance of the Wolverines will be marked by a new pair of for- wards recruited from last year's freshman squad. Miller and Whitlock have been handling the forward posi- tions and from present appearances will start tomorrow. Weiss at cen- ter with Williams and Paper at guards- are the other men who have been doing the most consistent work in practice. Many of the veterans from last year are unable to play because of injuries or else have not been out long enough tl regain their old form at hitting the basket. All of these men, in addi- tion to Cappon of the last year's All- fresh team, will be available by the time Conference games start. Lineup Has New Faces Williams at guard has been a tow- er of strength to the team for two seasons, while Paper promises to be a competent running mate for Jack. Whitie Wilson and Peare are also out and are likely to break into the play. Weiss is playing center in the ab- - sence of Duke Dunne, who has not yet been able to report for practice since the close of football. Whitlock and Miller give evidence of being able to give the opposing guards a real job if they are to be kept, from ringing up baskets. Unless the visitors fail to live up to advanced reputation a close game is. probable. Substitutions will be made by Coach Mather if the Wolve- rines are able to forge ahead to a comfortable margin. Admission to the game can -be obtained with the athletic coupon book as only in Con- ference contests will the attendance be limited and reservations made in advance.

Cornell Ithaca, N. Y., Dec. 8.-Plans are be- ing made to establish winter sports at Cornell for the coming season, on a more comprehensive basis than ever before. Several innovations will be made this year, and a program is be- ing laid out which calls for the erec- tion of a permanent winter clubhouse on Beebe Lake, to be followed by oth- er improvements in succeeding years. Beebe Lake will be divided into three general sections, to accommo- date the various phases of winter ac- tivities, and laccrosse coach, Nicholas Bawlf, has been engaged to coach hockey. Work on the temporary warm- ing house was started yesterday, and other preparations are being made in anticipation of the coming season. A suitable house will be provided this year to serve refreshments to the skaters and patrons of other winter sports. Colored lights will be install- ed around the lake to add a carnival appearance to the scene. The college of architecture is now working on plans for a permanent winter club- house which will fill the long felt need at Beebe Lake, and it is possi- ble that Alumni field, hitherto used for soccer practice, will be flooded in order to afford additional area for hockey practice and fancy skating. Cornell Ithaca, N. Y., Dec. 8.-Mayer and Kaw, star players on Cornell's foot- ball squad during the season just end- ed, appear among the leaders in point scoring ability in eastern intercolleg- iate football for the season, having taken third and fourth positions re- spectively. While Kaw had a slight advantage over Mayer in number of touchdowns, having carried the pig- skin over the goal line twelve times to Mayer's ten, the latter, in kicking thirteen goals from touchdowns, nos- ed him out of third position by one point. The varsity ranks fourth in the number of points scored this fall, with a total of 231, and also ranks fourth in the number of touchdowns scored throughout the season, having cross- ed the opponents goal line 33 times. Carey, varsty back, carried off fifth honors, and incidentally made one of the three longest drop-kicks of the season, in the Dartmouth game. Cornell Final preparations are being made by the Cornell cross country squad for the dual run which is to be held with the crack athletes of Cambridge and Oxford over the Rochammton,,.. England, course on Dec. 27. The team will sail from New York City on Dee- 14, and the interim before the meet will be devoted to recovering from the effects of the voyage. Great difficulty has been experienc- ed by Jack Moakley, famous Cornell track coach, in finding a course that even approximates the obstacles pre- cented by the Hare and Hound club course over which the event will be run. It was found necessary to press into service the course used by the R. 0. T. C. cavalry unit, which had laid out with wide ditches, high jumps. and water jumps. With the hard work that has been dealt out over this course, the men are in fit condition to meet Britain's best. Competition for places on the team has been keen and it is likely that the seven men who are to represent Cornell and the United States will not be determined until just before the first lap of the trip commences. Wisconsin From Madison drifts the word that Wisconsin's prospects in track look good this year and the Badgers are sending out no bear stories to conceal their strength. With 10 "W" men from last year's squad the Badgers are planning to top the list when track opens. With Knollin in the hurdles, Sundt in the broad jump and Merrick and Wilder, 12 feet men in the pole vault, Coach Jones is constructing a powerful squad. Northwestern It is not impossible that Centre col- lege will.have a place on Northwest- ern's schedule for 1921 according to Director Evans. Other .non-Confer- ence schools seeking games with the Purple are Beloit and Notre Dame. Hawathaway, center, on this year's varsity has been chosen to lead the team next year. Penfield, All-Western guard, and captain of this year's team graduates in the spring. INTRAMURAL NOTICE Anyone having personal equipment in the Intramural clubhouse can call for same be- tween 3 and 5 o'clock today. Ohio State Ohio State has declined an offer of Harvard for a football game be- tween the two schools at Cambridge in 1921. Reasons given for refusing were that Harvard would not agree to a return game at Columbus in 1922. Twenty-two Buckeye gridders leave Dec. 18 on the Pasadena trip for the New Year's tilt with California, cham- pions of the coast. Dartmouth Three All-Eastern football elevens have been picked at Dartmouth. These carefully selected teams appear under the headlines "Dartmouth makes All- American choices." Presumably this All-Eastern All-American team is con- sidered liberal in that section of the country, as most of the eastern in- stitutions have men named. Without stretching our imagination we venture that Eckersall's All-Conference team would press the easterners fiercely. From Dartmouth's selections all of Eckersall's men would be eligible to play with the West as in no case is there a conflict of names between the East's All-American and Eckersall's All-Conference. Leland Stanford Plans for the erection of an ath- letic stadium costing $750,000 have been completed at Stanford. The new stadium will be constructed in the shape of a bowl and will have a seat- ing capacity of 60,000 persons. In addition the stadium will be equipped with a 220 yard straightaway track and will accommodate soccer and rug- by football. Iowa Only two grid men are lost to the Iowa team through graduation. Beld- ing, Captain A. Devine, G. Devine, and Slater are among the letter men ex- pected to be available for the 1921 team. Unless the board revises its ruling on S. A. T. C. players Coach Jones will have a strong nucleus to begin with next season. WRESTLERS MEET TO DECIDE PLANS For all men interested in wrestling there is to be an important meeting at 7 o'clock this evening in the di- rectors' office at Waterman gymna- sium. At this time will be discussed the prospects for the year, including the possibility of securing outside competition and getting recognition for wrestling as an informal sport. Means for obtaining a competent in-! structor will also be taken up. It is to be noted that the available material out of which a strong wrestling team could be picked is bet- ter this year than at any time in the past. There are a number of first class men here who were members of wrestling teams in other universi- ties. All men who are contemplating wrestling this year or who are in- terested in furthering the sport at Michigan so that competition with other Conference schools may be se- cured are urged to be present at the meeting this evening. DELTA CHI VICTORY CLOSES FRATERNITY SOCCER SEASON Second place in the fraternity soc- cer tournament was gained Tuesday afternoon by Delta Chi when it edg- ed out Zeta Psi by a 2 to 1 score. At the end of the regular period the tally was one all. In the overtime which followed, Delta Chi managed to put two corner kicks between the goal, while Zeta Psi was putting one through. By virtue of the victory Delta Chi also wins the Class B cup. The game was fast, clean, and bit- ter. The result of the fight was not certain at any moment of the fray. Delta Chi had no star in particular but was able to win by virtue of fine team work. On the other hand Zeta Psi had three exceptional forwards in Johnson, Uteritz, and More but the rest of the team was weak in feed- ing the ball to these men. This game concludes a very successful interfra- ternity soccer season. CHOOSE REPRESENTATIVES FOR CHICAGO CONVENTION Profs. William H. Hobbs, Arthfr W. Smith, Samuel Moore, and Walter B. Pillsbury were chosen as repre- sentatives to attend the annual con- vention of the Association of Ameri- can College Professors to be held in Chicago Dec. 28 and 29, at a meeting of the local chapter held at the Mich- igan Union last night. Several important amendments to the constitution of the association were passed upon at the meeting. S"'Duke" Dunne, Captain-Elect Of Football Team, Is Stellar Athlet "Duke" Dunne, the recently chosen fast, 1921 football captain, is one of the that however, that the coaches claim no opponent outplayed him this finest all-around athletes that Michi- gan has ever possessed. To date Duke has won three football "M"s, one bas-I ketball letter, and an "aMa" in track. In high school he also played base- ball, but there is hardly time for him to attempt that here. The captain-elect entered the Uni- versity in the fall of 1918. He played end on the S. A. T. C. football team of that year, all freshman eligibility rules having been suspended. After the close of the army regime, Duke went out for the freshman basketball five and won his numerals. He also worked out in track a little that spring. A Three Sport Man In his sophomore year, Duke again played end on the Varsity football team, acquitting himself creditably and showing an abundance of fight. The winter saw him out for the bas- ketball team, where he displayed the same qualities that had made him conspicuous on the gridiron. He play- ed center throughout the season and was a tower of strength both offen- sively and defensively. The Chicago Tribune placed him at center on their third All-Conference team. As soon as the basketball season had ended Duke went out for track, participat- ing in the hurdles and weight events. He did fairly well in every event in which he entered although he didn't shine in any one. Took Part in Olympic Games However, this all-around ability stood him in good stead when it came to the Olympic tryouts, for he was chosen as one of the American rep- resentatives in the pentathlon. He performed well, finishing sixth in this event at Antwerp. This fall Duke was shifted to guard, a position with which he was wholly unfamiliar. He learned so fall. He was plpeed on several see- ond Conferenc teams and it is not unlikely that Walter Camp will give him honorable mention. Brothers Were Stars The next year's captain is an ideal captain-a hard worker, full of on- DUKE DUNNE thusiasm, and a natural leader. Tw of his brothers also won athletic fan at Michigan. His brother, Edwai played first base on the Varsity ft four years from 1906 to 1909, an another brother, Morrie, was a sta end for three years, 1914, '15, and '1 besides being catcher on the baseba nine.
