MICHIGAN STATE HARRIEBS MEET
WOLVERINES HERE THIS MORNING
CAN THESE MEN STOP GRANGE?
Farrell's Mein Hold Big Ad'antage
Oer Opponents in Previous
Meetings
START AT FERRY FIELD
Coach Farrell's proteges on the
Varsity cross country team will meet
the Michigan State squad in the sec-
ond dual meet of the season at 10:30
o'clock this morning, over the regular
Varsity course starting outside of
Ferry field. The race will be run
over a distance of four and one-half
miles, finishing at the Ann Arbor
golf coiAse.
Michigan State will bend all their
efforts in today's run to secure a win,
as they have been defeated by the
Wolverine harriers in their last four
meetings. M. S. C. boasts th best
tean: in many years and is confident
of a victory. Coach Mason at the
Lansing school is fortunate in having
the services of many veterans. The
team was hurt little by graduation
and will meet the Ann Arbor aggrega-
tion with a formidable array of
strength.
The first five men to finish for each
school, will count in the final scor-
ing. The Lansing team will consist of
Harper, Thomas, Severance, Ripper,
Haven, Rush, Banks, Van Arman,
Wiley and Belt. Last year Captain
Callahan, of the Michigan team, broke
.the existing record over the course at
Lansing. He will race again assisted
Iby many veterans including, Reinke,
Baker, Briggs, Butler, Cron, Hill,
Hornberger, Pfiuke, Iskenderian, Jung,
Thoits, Wheeler, and Whitmer.
The Michigan team is out for a
hwin today in order to wipe out the de-
feat suffered at the hands of the jladg-
ers earlier in the season. According
to past records, the Maize and Blue
squad should have little trouble in
copping the honors. Next Saturday
will see the Michigan harriers in Ur-*
bana vieing for the honors with Il-
linois and Ohio in a triangular meet.
Both the meet today and the triangu-
lar meet the following week will fur-
nish the team an opportunity to get
in shape for the Conference cross
country run; :which will be held in
Ann Arbor Saturday morning, Nov.
21, before the Minnesota football
game.
Manager Buick of the cross country
squad has selected the officials for to-
day's meet. Prof. H. C. Carver of the
mathematics department, will act in
the role of referee. Coach Furness,
coach of the freshman harriers, will
be the timer, and Richard Freyberg,
of the Varsity track team, has been
selected as judge.

Coach C. C. Furnass established a

course completing the distance in

LEADER11SHIP IN BIG TEN
CANNOT CHANGE TOAY
Results of today's football games
will have no effect on the leaders in
the Big Ten Conference race. Iowa
with two victories to its credit, will
withdraw from the Conference today
and meet Wabash, while Michigan en-
tertains the Navy.j
The Chicago Maroons will have an
opportunity to increase its percentage
but will not be able to advance in the
race. The Midway team has one vid-1
tory and one tie, and thereby ranks
with the leaders. Chicago will meet
Purdue in its traditional game at the
Midway today.
Minnescita will make its first ap-
pearance in the Conference by meet-
ing George Little's Wisconsin eleven..
Northwestern and Indiana, both with-
out a Conference victory yet, willI
meet at Chicago.
The standing:
Jim Thorpe, considered as the best'
all around athlete of all time is final-
ly forsaking the realm of sports. The
? culminationin the famous players ca-'
reer is seen in his release by the
New York professional football club
for failure to get into proper playing
condition.
Two weeks ago he played with the
New York team against the Frank-
fort Yellow Jackets but failed to
show anything like his old time form
and was withdrawn. He has been
handicapped by an injured knee which'
failed to respopd to treatment. Of-
ficials of the New York team said i
was considered doubtful that he
would play again.
Thorpe is now 39 years old, and in
his failure to gain a regular position
on the New York team athletic ob-
servers see the end of his spectacular
athletic career. The big Indian hasi
thad a checkered career but also one
of the most marvelous all-around rec- 1
ords in competitive history. He first l
gained national recognition as a grid- I
iron star at the Carlisle school, Penn-1
sylvania, winning a place on Walter
Camp's all-American teams in 1911
and 1912.
As a member of the Olympic team
TRORPE FORSAKES SPORT WORLD
AFTER FAILURE TO PROVE STAR
in 1912, Thorpe romped away with the
all around track and field events. In
an aftermath of the Olympics he be-
came involved in a scandal and was
stripped from his titles and medals on
a charge of professionalism.
Thorpe then turned to the diamond
for a.living and was signed by the
New York Giants, but failed to mea's-
ure up to the big league standard.
In the passing few years lie has play-
ed both professional baseball and
football, shifting from one place to
another, but still flashing intermit-
tently with the brilliancy of his form-
er athletic prowess.
