MOORE DELIGHTS LA RGE AUIENCE A RCITAL WIDE CHOICE OF AUTHORS ADDS VARIETY AND INTEREST TO PROGRAM (By Sidney B. Coates) Occasionally an organist plays a program, every number of which con- forms to a single mood, and which carries his entire audience into that mood during the recital. Such a pro- gram was played yesterday afternoon in Hill auditorium by Earl V. Moore, University organist. The members of his audiencn came into the big auditorium from the bleak outdoors and settled down for a restful and pleasant 40 minutes. Mr. Moore gave them what they sought, in a program of skillfully exe- cuted numbers, uniting to produce a feeling.of content which words or ap- plause will not describe. After each number the audience seemed reluctant to arouse itself from the intellectual ease produced by good music and leather cushioned seats. Thus works of Maitland, d'Evry, Franck and Dubois were all enjoyed and in nearly th same de- gree, each composer adding his bit toward keeping the wished for eon- ' tent constant. WATCH FOR PINK EXTRA The Daily will put out anoth- er pink extra tomorrow giving a play-by-play account of the Michigan-Wisconsin game. A special wire has been leased from Madison to The Daily so that the extra will be on the streets almost at the moment the game ends..

The publication offices will be closed to all persons during the game except those who are work- ing on the editorial and business staffs of the extra. Watch for the pink sheet.

GIVEN TO VAR-SITY 29000 howlinig Students Parade to Sta- tion to Cheer Departing Foot- ball Team HAHN PREDICTS VICTORY FOR MICHIGAN TOM1ORROW Genuine enthusiasm that only 2,000 husky, lusty, loud-yelling, weather-de- fying, Michigan voices can show- cheers that proved beyond any doubt that the entire student body is behind Coach Yost and his team of fighting Wolverines-a turnout which is every way rivaled- that of two weeks ago when the team left for Illinois-this was the nature of the send-off which was accorded the Varsity last night as it entrained for Madison to fact its most crucial test of the season. Forming behind the Varsity band at 8:30 o'clock in front of Hill auditor- ium, approximately 1,000 loyal sup- porters marched down State street to the stirring tunes of "The Victors," and "Varsity." Before they had turned the corner of Huron street, the num- ber of marchers had almost doubled, and locomotive after locomotive rent the air until the station was reached. Under the ladership of Al Cuthbert, '22E, Varsity cheer leader, cheers for Coach Yost, Archie Hahn, "Duke" Dunne and the other members of the team were given. Entreaties from the assembly for speeches from the play- ers were futile, but Trainer Hahn was finally prevailed upon to speak, his prediction that victory was certain for Michigan being the signal for an out- let of more enthusiasm.
