Team 13 Leads Competition With 91
Names; Teams 1 and 9
Follow
At the end of the second day of the
life membershiu drive of 1923, the
number of new life members of the
Union totalled 896. Offieials in charge1
of he drive state that the work is pio-
gressing much more slowly than at
the same time last year.
High man for the first two days of
the drive was W. F. Austin, '26, cap-
tain of team 1, with a total of 63 sig-
natures to his credit. E. B. Besimer,
'27, of team 13 was second, having
secured 62 new members up to 10
o'clock last night, and Joseph Armijo
'25, captain of team 2, and Jack Berk-
man, '26, of team 9, shared third place
with totals of 32 each.
Team 13 still holds the lead which
it established yesterday, outpointing
team 1 with a close score of 91 to 90.
Team % ranked third with a total of
82.
From 10:30 o'clock last night until
the same time tonight, the teams are
free to cover whatever territory they
choose, and the final scores of the
competing teams are expected to be
close and high as a result of this free-
dom of limits. Team 18, the flying
squadron, headed by Sidney Tremble,
'26, will continue its operations
through the week-ezid.
Edward Stark, '24, chairman of the
drive stated that while the totals to
date are behind those of last year, he
is confident that today's totals will
show a substantial increase, and will
more than fill the required quota. A
keen interteam competition has devel-
opend, and all men will be doing their
utmost toward making their the win-
ning team.
Men who have signed for life mem-
bership in previous years, but have
as yet made no payment are not
required to sign again, and are re-
quested not to do so, in order to aid
in keeping the records straight.
DEBATERS TO COVENE
HERE TOMORROW NIGHT
Send The Team "Off"Today
At 3:49 o'clock- this afternoon Coach Yost and his men
leave Ann Arbor for the great attack against the Hawkeyes.
The train that will carry the challenge of Michigan for an-
other "Championship of the West" which will cirtually be de-
cided on the Iowa field Saturday, pulls out of the Michigan
Central station at that time. Will you be there to cheer the
team off? The band will, the cheerleaders will and every stu-
dent in the University will when he realizes what an import-
ant thing this is.
Iowa is waiting, anxious for the Wolverines to come. They
have been beaten. Illinois blasted their hopes for a champion-
ship this year so in the game with Michigan they have nothing
to lose. To win they have everything. The title split of last
year is still in the air. The Hawkeyes are intent upon showing
the Wolverines by a decisive victory that they had the better
claim to the championship of last year even though both teams
did finish with clean slates. And again they still feel the sting
of defeat that Yost handed out to them in 1902 by a 107-0 score.
This meeting will mark the renewal of football relations brok-
en off at that time, and it should result in a Michigan victory.
Be at Hill auditorium at 3 o'clock to follow the band in its
march to the station. No one should fail in this duty to give the
team the needed impetus that will carry it through for another
triumphant season. To do this the entire student body must be
present and ready to stage a d emonstration of cheering and
yelling that the team will remember when it faces the Hawk-
eyes at Iowa City Saturday.
The teams are venly' matched and the hardest battle of the
season is expected. One defeated Ohio State 23-0 and the other
20-0. Both are at the peak of development. Ultimate victory
may rest in the student body for it alone can furnish the spirit
that will swing the balance to Michigan. Remember: 3 o'clock
this afternoon at Hill auditorium.
