M.- The railroad strike was called off fol- lowing tonight's conference. Chicago, Oct. 27.-Chiefs of the Big Five rail labor unions which have call- ed a strike for Oct. 30, tonight ap- pointed a committee to draw up a res- olution calling off the proposed walk- out and to prevent it as soon as pos- sible. Indications were that it would be some time before the resolution could be drafted. The resolutions committee began work at 8:80 o'clock tonight. It had been instructed to "work carefully and bring back a resolution which would explain fully the union attitude in the matter.." Chiefs Favor Resolution several union chiefs, among them W. G. Lee, of the trainmen, said that they believed the resolution would be passed without serious opposition. The decision followed a whole day of rail union meetings, sessions /of the labor board, and conferences be- tween the representatives of the -two groups, during which high oficials of the employees' organization were in- formed that unless peace came by to- morrow it would "deal with the unions with ungloved hands" in order to pre- vent a walkout. Board Threatens Committees The statement from the labor board was delivered to union committees which called on the board during the day to report the progress of the joint conference of chieftains of the switch- men, trainmen, conductors, engineers, and firemen. The conference was forced to adjourn late today without taking action because the lease on its meeting room had run out. The ses- sion was continued at a hotel a short time later, however.. Just before entering the night meet- ing, W. G. Lee, president of the broth- erhood of railroad trainmen, stated to the Associated Press: "There is every reasoY4 to believe that certain arrange- ments would be made tonight whereby the strike scheduled for Oct. a0 will be called oft." , meeting of the Student council Wed- nesday night.

JETROIT ALUMNI BACK COACH YOST Fighting Michigan Spirit Comes Out at Large Weekly Luncheon and Assembly PLAN BIG SMOKER SATURDAY TO HEAR ILLINOIS RETURNS (Special to The Daily) Detroit, Oct. 27.-Michigan's fight- ng come-back spirit was revealed his noon at the Hotel Cadillac when Detroit alumni of the University met n what proved to be the largest at- ended weekly alumni luncheon held his year. Coach Yost, the principal speaker, was received with cheers by the large gathering. Yost Gives Talk Yost made a comprehensive resume of the football situation and told the alumni that Michigan was going to come back stronger than ever in the game Saturday with Illinois. He ex- plained that injuries kept the team from doing its best work last week and that the injured men would be in fighting trim this week. Rousing cheers followed the coach's talk and the meeting was charged with enthu- siasm for the game Saturday. Under Mason P. Rumney, '08, the new head of the alumni in Detroit, the meeting started off with all indi- cations pointing to the biggest year the alumni have yet held. A new get- acquainted stunt was introduced when the men were called upon by classes to stand up and shout their names at the top of their voices. Preparations for having every man know every other man in the organization are be- ing made and the establishment of a real Michigan club is anticipated. To Hear Illinois Returns Arrangements are completed for the big smoker to be held Saturday after- noon during the game with Illinois, when the game will be followed play by play by prominent "M" men on a (Continued on Page Eight) BUILDING DRIVE[ TO BEGIN TODAY Women Start Campaign for the New League Structure at Meeting This Afternoon PRESIDENT BURTON WILL TELL, NEED OF BUILDING xUniversity women will launch a drive at 4 o'clock this afternoon in Hill auditorium for life membership in the University of Michigan league, which has for its purpose the raising of funds for a league building.

ALUMNUS FEATURES OHIO STATE GAME One of the features of this week's Alumnus is a series of comments on the 0. S. U. game, among which is the following remark by Prof. Ralph W. Aigler, of the Law school: "Noth- ing was lacking to make the day a complete success except a Michigan victory. " Another article by Dean Hugh Ca- bot, of the Medical school, pays high tribute to Dr. Victor C. Vaughan, for- mer dean of the Medical school. Several letters received from read- ers of the Alumnus praise the new form in which the weekly is now printed. Among these is one from N. H. Bowen, '00, associate editor of the Detroit Saturday Night, in which he says: "I wish to extend my congrat- ulations to you on your success in es- tablishing your magazine on a; weekly pasis. We are greatly interested in it.", STRUCTURAL WORK ON HOSPITAL NEARLY DONE1 (By Paul Watsel) That Michigan rooters are solidly behind their team and their coach was demonstarted last night when more than 2,000 students marched to the Ann Arbor railroad station to see the team leave for Illinois. The procession, starting on State street in a drizzling rain, marched be- hind the band through the campus bus- iness section and through the down town district, singing Michigan songs and giving the college yells. The weather did not affect the rooters; only those who feared that the "ex- treme dampness" might injure their delicate constitutions remained in their rooms.

The Thompson-Starrett company, of New York, which was-awarded the contrast on the structural work, ex- pects to have its contract completed within a week. The work accomplished so far com- pletes the foundation and structural contracts, this work involving an ex- pense of more than $1,500,000. Con- tracts have not as yet been given for the interior work, petitioning, glass work, and equipment, and it is estim- ated that these conltracts will run over $2,500,000, making a total cost of approximately $4,000,000 for the fin- ished building. Work is progressing on the adminis- traion building, adjoining the hospital structure, but no part of the hospital will be completed until a further ap- propriation is obtained from the state. Of the funds appropriated to the Uni- versity for buildings by the 'state leg-{ islature last spring, $300,000 have been used on contracts then pending for the hospital, but the remainder of this sum is to be used for campus build- ings and not on the new hospital.

During the past two days the edi- torial office of The Daily has been flooded with letters in reply to the one by R. S. Tubbs, '22, published in Wednesday's edition. The gist of Tubbs' communication was in effect that Michigan's recent football show- ing has been due to poor coaching. In reply, many communications have been received, one from a facul- ty member, expressing various shades of opinion, but none condemning the Michigan coach. It would be impos- sible to publish all of these letters, but the following resume will give the reader an idea of the main points brought forward. Charges Cold Feet The first letter at hand is from Ross S. Campbell, '23. Campbell char- acterizes the letter of Mr. Tubbs as being "of malicious intent and thor- ough yellowism". Says this corre- spondent: "Whoever heard of a Mich- igar, student body getting cold feet, acting like babies, sucking the milk of defeat, and then laying down and kicking?

The small Ann Arbor station was soon handling a capacity crowd, and the noisy students swarmed on the roof. and on near-by box cars . Songs yells and cheers were led by "Al" Cuthbert, Varsity cheer leader. The sleeping car upon which the squad was to leave for the Indians' territory waited on the side-track for the Maize and Blue -warriors as, cheers for each individual on the squad were given. "The Victors", "Varsity", and "The Yellow and Blue" were sung by the crowd as they waited for the grid- ders to arrive. Call For Speeches Presently the team came up amid the cheers of the crowd, and calls for "speeches" were heard. "Duke" Dunne, Varsity captain, was the first to give the rooters assurance that the team would put every ounce of strength into the coming battle with the Illini "We hope to do what we tried to do last Saturday and failed, if that word pleases some of you," he said. "Saturday we will make it a different story."~ The cheers of the crowd showed that they appreciated the spirit of fight which seemed to be dominant in the captain as he spoke. Hearty cheers for the team and the coach showed the confidence of the student body in the gridders and their mentor. Following "the Duke's" speech, the rootersucalled for other members of the squad, and Banks gave a short talk as he backed up the Pullman steps, aiding himself with his 'cane. He declared that his presence in Ur- bana was merely for "moral support," but assured the students that the team was going to fight, and fight hard. Archie Hahn, Varsity trainer, gave the same assurance of the team's su- preme efforts. Close With "Yea Team" With a final hearty "Yea Team," tlhe crowd started, to break up in order to allow the players to retire and get a much needed rest before the big battle of Saturday. Repeated calls for Kipke continued, however, until the star half- back appeared on the car steps and spoke a few words. The crowd was satisfied, left the station and followed the band back to the campus. The members of the team retired early and in a short time were on their way to Illinois and the big fight.
