Enthusiasm for a Green and White victory over the Wolverines iomgrrow is at its highest pitch. Coach Young has drilled the men in every detail in an effort to avenge the close defeat handed to his men by the Michigan team headed by Captain Steger in the dedication game at Lansing last year. The Green and White team which will entrain for Ann Arbor tomorrow morning, will face the Wolveriines with a strong line and an untried backfleld. With reports, that Yost's aggregation is composed of much the same calibre, fans are expecting to see a forward passing game. 'The Lansing line is one of the best devel- oped here in recent years and will be a real test for the Michigan line. Drew and Anderson have drawn the assignment to guard the flank posi- tions. Spiekerman and Captain Has- kins are two tackles that are hard to duplicate and should feature in the play tomorrow. Haskins versus Ed- wards of Michigan should be a battle worth watching. Rummell and Hackett will fill the guard positions while Vogal will han- dle the center job. The Michigan State backfield will consist of Fouts at quarter, Boehring- er and Smith at the halves and Van Buren at fullback. Boehringer is the only member of the quartet who is not a sophomore, and it .is probable that Ruhl, a second year man, will play a good part of the contest at Boehringer's position. Paul Smith will handle the kicking end of the game, and his toe should aid materially during the game. Ly- Man, who called the signals in the first game last week, may see consid- erable service against the Wolver- ines. TI LIMIT ETNDE IN TENNIS TOURNAMENT Due to the adverse weather condi- tions there has been an extension of time granted the matches in the al- campustennis tournament which were to have been reported at the Intramural office Monday. The date set now is three days after the con- ditions allow matches to be played. All matches not reported then will be forfeited. Those men who enter- ed the tournament and whose names were not in the schedule printed in yesterday's Daily, are requested to consult the schedule in the Intramural offlce and find out if they have drawn byes. Any mistakes reported to the manager will be corrected. New York, Oct. 2. - Rogers horns- by will equal a major league record of long standing if he keeps up hist present .400 .hitting pace for the last few games of the season. This is Hornsby's sixth straight year at the top of the National league batting heap, which improves on his own league record.

In 21 years of world's series his - tory only four men--far-famed forl nany seasons--have captured the na- tional game's greatest title two years m1i succession. They were the late F'rank Chance with the Chicago CubsI in 1907 and 10<8, Connie Mack with the Philadelphia Athletics in 1910 and 1911, Bill (arrigan witlh the Boston Americans in .1915 and 1916 and ,John1 McGraw with the New York Giants in 1921 and 1922. Today Harris stands with one vie- Story to his credit, the Conquest ofl the Giants a year ago, and another world's series in the offing, this time aginDst Pittsburgh.
