PLAY OF SQUAD BETTER
Michigan's football s q u a d went
through a severe workout yesterday
afternoon when two picked teams
Blues and Reds, battled through four
10 minute quarters on Ferry field.
Not a man of the thirty odd who
got into the fray failed to make a
good performance a n d when the
smoke had cleared away from the
field along about dinner time the
regulars had just managed to get one
touchdown, that on a forward pass.
Few men on either team stood out
4s the stars. The entire Red team
gets credit for having held the Var-
sity twice within the five yard line.
The Varsity gets credit for having
played its best game of the present
season and it was only because of
the improvement in the Red squad
that more trips were not made across
the scrub's goal line.
If there was any one star on the
Red team it was Bruce Gregory,
halfback. He did all of the punt-
ing for his team, ran the ball a great
deal of the time and was in every
play. He duplicated his feat of Tues-
day when after getting off a punt he
dashed down the field and nailed the
runner. Nine times in the forty min-
utes of play Gregory was forced to
punt and seven out of the nine times
1h got off punts that averaged 40
yards. In the last quarter he inter-
cepted Friedman's pass.
Heath was another member of the
Red backfield who continued to show
up well in today's scrimmage and it
is likely that he will be seen in a I
Blue uniform before many more
scrimmages have gone into history.
He is a hard plunger and a sure man
on the defense. He.,made a remark-
able recovery in yesterday's game
after half the Blue team had had a
chance at the ball.
Parker and Rockwell continued to
shine in the backfield of the Blue
team. One of the two took part in
ery one of the five passes which
wer e c ompleted. Ierrnstein also
showed well on the receiving end of
the passes and Stamman made the
pass which accounted for the lone
Blue score.
Steele and Edwards showed upi
well in the Varsity line play. Both
took out their men with regularity
while they were in the game and
between the two they blocked and
recovered one of Gregory's punts
early in the game.
1UNIVERSITY OF TEXS
TO RUI RELA CARNI
Austin, Texas, Sept. 25.-Athletic
Director Bellmont and Track Coach
Clyde Littlefield, of the LIniversity
Of Texas have drawn up tentative
plans for a Relay carnival to be held
n the Texas Memorial stadium, the
first week in Aril. The carnival'will
be the first of its kind to be staged
n the Southwest, although other sec
ions of the country have been stag-
ng events of this kind for a number
f years.
The primary idea for inaugurating
he games is to bring all the track
mnd field athletes of the Southwest
ogether, to create a closer bond' of
ellowship between these 'athletes,
and to bring to the Southwest track
and field luminaries from all parts
>f the United States.

Arthur Callahan, younger brother
of "Timr" and "Mike" Callahan, rival
centers on the Yale and Princeton el-f
evens four years ago, has entered
Harvard university this fall and will

be a line candidate for the yearling
team at Cambridge.,
The younger Callahan is the second
heaviest man on the freshman squad,
weighing an even 200 pounds.sAp-
parently unable to decide between
Yale and Princeton, the choice of his
brithers, Arthur has chosen Harvard
for his Alma Mater.
"Tim" Callahan played center on
Yale's team and was elected captain
in his senior year. In the meantime,
"Mike" Callahan, center on the.
Princeton eleven, was also chosen
leader in his senior year, and the
brothers staged a merry battle.in the
Palmer stadium at Princeton.
ANN ARBOR HIGH' OPENS
WITH bAYNE SATURDAY1
With the opening game of the sea-;
son with Wayne high just two days
away, Coach Holloway has let up on ,
the hard work in order to let several;
of his star players, who have been3
practicing under difficulty, get in con-
dition.
Little is known of Wayne high's!

expecting them to give his men a real;
test. As many men as possible will1

Inaugurate New Plan of Picking
Squad of 15-20 Men in
Fall Tryouts
THREE VETERANS BACK
Starting their workouts under a,
new plan which will enable the squad
to get into shape more ea'sily next
spring, the Varsity tennis players
and candidates will start fall prac-
tice this afternoon at Ferry field.
Under the new system, the squad
will be cut to 15 or 20 men this fall,
and this same group will continue
the work of preparation for the reg-
ular schedule next spring. No new
f members will be taken on the team
when the spring workouts begin, so
that anyone wishing to try out for
1 the squad must participate in the fall
workouts.
Three veterans will be on hand for
practice. They are Captain Crane,
1 Vose, and Griener. There are several
other men who have not been in
Varsity competition before, including
Jerome, O'Connell, Martin, Burke,
and Olian. These men will all be
eligible for play next spring unless
academic difficulties interfere this
semester. O'Connell is one of the
ranking players of the Middle West,
while Jerome is one of the best-
known racquet wielders in the state.
Dr. Robert Angell, '21, formerly a
letter man in Varsity tennis, will as-
sist the men in their workouts and
will lend. a hand in picking the squad.
Dr. Angell was runner-up in the De-
troit city tourney this summer, being
defeated in the finals by Oscar Ze-
mon after a hard match.
After the squad has worked for
two or three weeks, some outside
matches will be played. Negotiations
are under way for these clashes, but
as yet no definite schedule has been
arranged.
Monday is the last day for new
candidates to report for practice, as
from that time on the workouts will
be conducted with a view to weeding
out the men so as to get the Var-
sity squad in shape.
Two new concrete courts have been
built adjacent to the two old ones,
so that practice can be carried on
i n f ul11 force even i n inclement
weather.

be given a chance to show their abil-j
ity under fire.
The Purple and White line is made
up of heavy, fast, and experienced
men. Wilson and Shankland, tackles,
are two ideally built men for this day
of the forward pass and off tackle
thrusts, both being fast and rangy.
The flanks are well protected by Mu-
cile and Batchelor who are fast, heady
men.
For the last two years Ann Arbor,
due to a light backfield, has relied
on the open game to win. And it is
expected that the same attack will
predominate this year as the backfield
hardly averages 140 pounds to a man.j
Coach Holloway has spent much time1
in search of a punter and passer to
take the place of Neff who graduated
last year.,
Several combinations with both
j anna and Captain Walsh on the pass-
ing end will be used Saturday in an
effort to find the best one as soon as
possible. Hanna, basketball captain,
will be given a chance to fill the hole
Neff left.
If Coach Holloway can develop as
good an attack as the team possesed
last year, and with the heavy, exper-
ienced line spared from accidents,
Ann Arbor high should have another
winning year.

Art Nehf, sterling Giant mounds-
man, pitched his mates to a 5-4 vic-
tory over the Pittsburg Pirates yes-
terday afternoon, thus practically
clinching the pennant for the New
York Nationals. If the Giants win
two of their three remaining games,
McGraw will annex another league
title. Should the Giants lose two
games of the three, Brooklyn will)
have to win both her games in order
to toe the Giants.
YOUNG STRIBLING LOSES
TO STONE IN SLOW BOUT
Newark, N. J., Sept. 25.-Ad Stone
now a full-fledged heavy-weight, was
a winner in his 12-round encounter'
with Young Stribling last night at
the Newark armory although he was
unable to put the southerner on the
floor and was handicapped all the
way through by Stribling's wrestling
and constant holding.
Stone weighed 179 pounds against
Stribling's 168. Despite the differ-
ence in weight Stribling declined to
stand off and swap punches with
the former marine. All of his scor-
ing in the early rounds was done in
the clinches and later with a left,
hook which he kept throwing at Ad's
body as the marine walked into him.
Stone subjected Stribling to a se-
vere body attack and in the last two
rounds belted him all over the ring.
Stribling slipped down in the last
round and then held to last it out
after making a fast start.

Urbana, Ill., Sept. 25.-With his
Championship team almost untouch-
ed by graduation and all of his men
liaving escaped the bugaboo of aca-
demic difficulties, Coach Zuppke of
Illinois is entertaining high hopes of
an o ther Conference championship;
and a glance over his stiff five con-
ference game schedule will show that
he doesn't intend to share the honors
with any other aggregation. The
only possible contender for the lau-
rels not included on his schedule is
Wisconsin and he looks for Michi-
gan, Iowa, or Minnesota ito put them
out of the running.
The Illinois mentor has been hold-
ing frequent scrimmages since the
start of training season in order to
get a line on his new candidates
under fire.
Leonard, a product of last year's
yearling team, has been pushing
Britton hard for the fullback's job
and bids fair to replace him. In Gal-
livan, Coach Zuppke has uncovered a
lad who shows promise of developing
into a quarterback of first string
caliber. Jenks, a 150 pounder, is also
bidding strong to break into the Illi-
nois backfield, shoring two touch-
downs against ther Varsity in yester-
day's game.
Urnus and Roberts are fighting it
out for the pivot position, with the
rest of the forward wall practically
intact. McMillen, one of the best
guards in the Conference last year
is gone, but Zuppke has Miller and
Slimmer from last year's squad to
hold down the positions near the
center of the line.
Harold "Red" Grange is back and
around him the Suckers attack will
be centered. In early season prac-
tice he has shown himself to be
as good if not better than last year
and upon his rise or fall the "Illini"
largely rest their hopes.
Illinois opens with Nebraska, the
team that upset Notre Dame last
year, and will follow this up with a
less strenuous clash with Butler,!
after which cones the game that
Zuppke is priming his charges for-
the game with Michigan.
Brussels, Sept. 25- The foot and
mouth disease epizootic has caused
losses of 50,000,000 francs in Bel-
gium. Last month 143,292 cattle were
infected.

May Discontinue
10000 Metre Walk
Race In Olympics
The 10,000 metre walking race,
which has been on the oflicial pro-
gram of the Olymnpic games for many
f years, may be discontinued in future
meets due to the fact that it is a
difficult event to handle and is also
uninteresting to spectators.
Due to the fact that it takes an
extremely competent and experienced
official to judge walking races, they
give rise to a number of disputes.
The distinction between -walking an
running is a fine and tecinical one,
and every disqualification leads to
trouble.
Furthermore, the 10,000 metre race
takes up about 45 minutes and, as a
rule, the contestants are strung out
over a long distance, as competition
is never very keen. As a result, spec-
tators find such an event boresome.
It is probable that a walking race over
a shorter distance will be instituted,.
thus making it easier for officials and
spectators alike.
