Carter Declares Settlement Should
Reimburse Men For Loss Due
to Wage Cut
(By Associated Press)
Chicago, Oct. 26.-Executives of the
Big Four brotherhood and the switch-
men's union of North America, after a
day of verbal jockeying with the Unit-
ed States railroad labor board de-
clared late toay that no power on
earth save a "satisfactory settlement"
can prevent their men from walking
out beginning at 6 o'clock next Sun-
day morning.
Submit Questions
Their declaration came at the close
of a. day of questioning when Judge R
N. Barton, chairman of the labor
board, called upon each uion presi-
dent in turn and asked him four pre-
pared questions, the third of which
was: "If the board shall declare a
strike It not justified, and should not
occur, and direct that the employees
not strike, will that order be obeyed?"
W. S. Carter declared a settlement
should also reimburse the men for
' the pay lost snce July as a result of
the wage cut.
The other three questions asked the
union leaders were: "Who, or what
authority in your labor organization
can withdraw the order to strike or
atop a strike?"
Can Strike Be Prevented
"Suppose you, the chief executive
of your organation, or your execu-
tive committee, issued an order or a
statement that a strike should not oc-
cur, do you not believe the strike
would be prevented?"
"Will you, as chief executive, use
your power and influence to see that
the order of the board on the matter
be obeyed?"
That the government contemplates
injunction proceedings against the un-
ions for violation of the transporta-
tion act was indicated by the trend of
questioning conducted by Ben W.
Hooper, representative of the public
on the board.

MICHIGAN ROOTERS
SAFE FROM STRIKE
Students who follow the team to
Illinois next Saturday will not be left
in Champaign with no means of re-
turn due to the threatening railroad
strike. This assurance was given yes-
terday, by C. W. Mercer, travelling
passenger agent of the Michigan Cen-
tral railroad.
The proposed nation-wide tie-u
will not take effect in all parts of the
country simultaneously, it was point-
ed out. The strike will be called into
being at different times in the vari-
ous "zones." The zone in which the
Michigan Central and Illinois Central
operate will not be left without rail-
road facilities until Nov. 5.
WOMEN WILL'BEGIN

SEE THE TEAM OFF TONIGHT

Tonight, at io o'clock, Michigan's fighting football team,
together with Coach Yost and his assistants, will leave for
Urbana, with but one thought in the minds of all, one goal
which they have all set themselves to reach, no matter what
the odds to be overcome - and that goal is victory over Illi-
nois. Last Saturday Michigan tasted bitter defeat at the
hands of Ohio State, a defeat which came unexpectedly, send-
ing a temporary wave of gloom over the campus, affecting
all loyal Michigan supporters as much as it did the men who
fought so valiantly in the face of odds and handicaps.
But instead of permitting themselves to be downhearted
and spending the week in bemoaning their fate, every man on
that team from the captain to the last reserve on the scrubs,
from Coach Yost down through his staff, has been out on
Ferry field until late every evening, working, working, work-
ing to beat the Illini next Saturday, giving unsparingly of
their time and energy that this result may be achieved.
Every Michigan man, every Michigan woman should be
behind the team, and when the train leaves, the Ann Arbor
depot 'tonight the cheers of eight thousand voices should
drown out the locomotive of the engine; cheers that will re-
sound in Urbana and warn the Illini that the Wolverine is
on the warpath, victory-bent. Everybody out at 10 o'clock
tonight and help make that team so fightin' mad that they'll
come back to Ann Arbor with Ii Indian scalps tucked se-
curely under their belts. Up and at 'em, gang, see the team
off to Urbana and victory !

teachers and home influence," said
Professor Humphreys. "It devolves
upon you to adjust yourself to cir-
cumstances which have hitherto been
unknown to you."
Emerson Swart, '22E, president of
the Union, explained the origin, growth
and purposes of that institution, and

Seniors' pictures are wanted for the

sittings to be made and it is impera-
tive that these be attended to at once
in order that there may be time for
everyone.
The period set for these pictures
was Oct. 18 to Nov. 18. Half the time

the work is completed. Sittings may
be arranged by telephone at any of

IHS YOST SEEN HIS DA?"
STUDENT BRANDS STATEMENTS
OF TUBBS AS RIDICULOUS AND
UNFOUNDEDj
Editor, The Michigan Daily:
The stateemnts of Mr. Tubbs con-
cerning Coach Yost in a communica-
tion to The Daily are so absurdly di-+
diculous and .unfounded upon fact
that they should not be given even
passing consideration, except that
they unjustly criticize the Michigan
coach at a time when the backing of+
every Michigan man should be given
him and the team in an effort to win
the remaining games. For this rea-
son and the fact that such fallacious'
charges may influence numerous oth-
er ephemeral thinkers who are grand-
stand students of football, I am an-
swering his absurdities-.
Questions Reason for Charges
For the sake of argument, let us
admit that every one of Mr. Tubb's
accusations are true - which is not
so. Would that be any reason for,
making charges against Coach Yost's-1
abiity at this time? Does he think
that his untimely remarks will bring
a change in coaches at this point of
the season. If so, he is sadly misled.
For the presetn season Coach Yost-
will direct the Michigan football.
team. The team must have confidencea
in their coach; they have it now, but
if from all sides this insidious propa-
ganda against the coach is allowed to
creep in, the men cannot have the
unity of front and the confidence
against coming teams that they
should. What is needed now is some
real enthusiasm and strong hearty
backing of the team and coach.
Mr. Tubbs' Ignorance
Now for Mr. Tubbs' exhibition of
utter ignorance concerning what real-
ly happened at the football game. His
criticism of Frank Steketee is un-
warranted. If Mr. Tubbs realized that
Steketee is one of the greatest play-
ers of the day and up to the Ohio
game had played as wonderful football
as any man in this country, he might
excuse one "off day". But even so, did
Stpketee play as poorly as is charg-
ed? It is admitted that he made two
poor punts, but counting out these,
he averaged for the rest of the game
at least 35 yards, which is better kick-
ing than is seen on 75 per cent of
modern football teams. The trouble
with this charge is that Mr. Tubbs,
and others, fal to realize that Stek-
etee was giving his best, which was
j below the best that he has done be-
fore. His critics can't see that they
expected too much.
Coach Yost was not responsible for
Stuart's returning the punt for a
\touchdown. The team is coached to
start immediately for a kick, and they
had gone a number of yards beyond
the ball, before it was evident that
the punt was short and to the side.

They immediately started back, but -it
was too late. It was one of those
"breaks of the game". Nothing more
or less. In the Chicago Tribune Wal-,
ter Eckersall says, "While the Wol-
verines' defeat by the Buckeyes was
bitter to the thousands of alumni who
attended the game, the Michigan play-
ers dtd not play the brand of foot-
ball taught by the veteran mentor.
Stuart's touchdown after picking up
Steketee's punt should never have
happened. Errors of this kind cannot
be blamed on the coach."
