Yost Michigan's determination to give Illinois everything she has this week- end was manifested by the appearance in uniform of Coach Fielding H. Yost Monday afternoon. "Hurry Up" showed that he is still the same old coach when he blocked, tackled, and gave demonstrations of plays in the same way which won for him his pop- ular title years ago. The coach's duties as director of athletics have kept him from putting on the mole- skins before the present week. COACHES WILL SELECT MOST VALUABLE PLYER Chicago, Ill., Oct. 14.-"What fcot- ball player of the Big Ten is o4 the greatest value to his team?" To de- cide this question the Chicago.

All enthusiasts are i-iv~ted to call AVo:l,."jis att~n.iion to any notable playing or incidents which make the player eligible for this honor. The award for this honor has not yet been chosen, but it will be a cup, emblem, or trophy by which the re- ceiver will always be reminded 01 his successful days on the gridiron. The award will be made at the close of the season, to the man who in the composite opinion of the notables EXPECT CAPACITY MRO AT ARMY-IISH CONTEST' i , New York, Oct. 14.-A capacity crowd of more than 50,000 is expect-j ed to witness the Army-Notre Dame football game Saturday at te Polo Grounds where one of the most spec- tacular of the intersectional series between the two rivals will be fought. IThe cadets, although generally re- garded as having a stronger team than the 1923 aggregation, since Harry Wilson has been added to the backfield, are not considering the game with the same over-confidence 1 which was credited with hastening their 13-0 defeat last season. The blue comet, which went into the Army contest last year fighting to live, will meet an alert group of veteran stars, who will be deter- mined to cross the Notre Dame goal line-something which no Arimy man has done during the last three years. Army will outweigh Rockne's team, which will have an advantage in1 speed.

Paris, Oct. 14.-The first stage of the negotiations between France and Germany for the formulation of a niommercial treaty, have ended. REAT ILLINOIS! Numbered among the outstanding' clashes will be numerous prominentj intersectional games, while many ofl the more important teams in both thet West and East will come together. In the Big Ten, the outstanding 4 game is, of course, the Michigan-Ill- inois fracas at Urbana. These two teams, tied for the Conference title last year, are expected to put tip the battle of the year in the new Illini stadiimii. Wisconsin and Minnesota will meet in another prominent game in the Conference, while the North- wcstern-Purdue and Chicago-Indiana games are the other tilts of note in the Middle West. These battles will start the process of clarifying the Big Tfen situation. The Badger-Gopher game will be a stiff battle, and its outcome will be important. The Wisconsin eleven was not really tested in the 7-7 tie with Coe last Saturday due to the fact that practically an entire second eleven took the field for the Madison school. Minnesota showed power in defeating laskell 20-0 in Saturday's game, as the Indians have a fast team. Mal- colm Graham, at quarter, is the chief m instay of the Gophers. The other two Big Ten tilts will not be likely to have a bearing on the title, but they will prove interesting in that the weaker teams have shown nuch improvement this year. Chi- ago's reversal of form in beating Pr;own.Saturday makes them stand better in the eyes of fans, who were disappointed in the Staggnmen when 9-6 woin. If they can stop Tyron, the sensational Colgate back, they will be well on their way to a victory. Ohio State will play Ohio Wesleyan, while Iowa stacks up with Lawrence college. Both should be pushover games. Eastern games will bring together Yale and Dartmouth, Cornell and Rutgers, Penn and Columbia, Prince- ton and the Navy, Harvard and Holy Cross, W. and J. and Carnegie Tech., and Williams and Renssalaer, besides several lesser tilts. The Yale-Dart- mouth and Princeton-Navy games will hold the center of attention. Cornell's work against Rutgers will be watched. closely because of the defeat of the Big Red team at the hands of Wil- liams last Saturday. Another important contest to be played in the East is the Army-Notre Dame fracas at New York. The Sold- iers' work against the U. of D. last week was nothing extraordinary, and the Irish showed ability in beating Wabash by a 34-0 count. Rockne's eleven will probably trim the Cadets, although the score is not expected to attain a high proportion. Georgia Tech and Penn State will meet at Atlanta in one of the promin- ent intersectional games. The Quak- ers have won three games by large' I 820-R, R. Douglas 396 vs. R. B. Lar- son 503 E.
