DETROIT PLAYERS GAIN TWO TITLES (I'y Associated Press) DETROIT, Oct. 4.-When George Moriarty ceased to be an umpire and1 became manager of the Detroit Tigers he said something about making the Tigers a base stealing team. At the close of the American league season Sunday the Detroit club had run away with 138 bases, one more than Wash- ington, the second team in the league in this sport. And this despite the fact that the speedy pair, Jackie Tavener and Johnny Neun, shortstop and first baseman, respectively ,were out of the game for long periods with in- juries. In addition to this distinction the Tigers showed an infield that execut- ed 170 double plays, one more than the St. Louis Cardinals for the major league championship in their division. Detroit placed two men-one the lead- er, Heilmann, and the other, Fother- gill-among the major lea-ue's first five batters. BOILERMAKER STAN HURT IN SATURDAY'S CONTEST (By Associated Press) LAFAYETTE, Ind., Oct. 4.-Cotton Wilcox, offensive star of the Purdue university football team for two years, will be unable to play for an indefinite period due to an ankle injury re- ceived in the Depauw game Saturday. An X-ray revealed a chipped bone which was removed by an operation.y As Purdue's offensive is built around Wilcox's flashy ball carrying, it is believed his loss will be a serious handicap in the game with Harvard next Saturday. At Michigan IUdergraiduates Fail to Understand lhuit Aluinti M eai n by. Playing Princcton Team PYLE PROMOTES CONTEST (By Associated Press) CAMIBRIDGE, Mass., Oct. 5.--An- nouncement of plans for a football game in New York City between alumni of Ilarvard and Princeton whose traditional undergraduate ath- letic relationships were severed last year, evoked little' enthusiasm here today.- With the exception of Al Miller, speedy halfback for the last three Harvard teams, prominent former players saw little to be gained by the projected game. Even Miller qualified his-announced readiness to play by stipulating that he would only consider donning his togs again if he were assured that his amateur status would not be en- dangered. Miller, in disclosing that he had been approached by C. C. Pyle, the professional football promoter who has offered to turn over the Yankee stadium for the game on Oct. 30, said Pyle had spoken of a financial com- pensation. Advices actively interested in the idea emphasized that the game was purely for the sport of the thing and might act as an opening wedge to restore good relations between the two universities. The Harvard Crimson, undergrad- uate daily, took today another view saying in reference to such a game: "It will do nothing toward buryinfi the hatchet between Princeton and Harvard. "Neither college is interested in the affair, neither undegraduate body sees it in the light of an intercollegiate contest. It is a prviate matter con- cerning only the possible players and promoters." YEARLING NETMEN TO HOLD TOURNEY Freshman and first year on campus tennis players will have their last chance to register for the fall elimina- tion tournament tomorrow afternoon. The tournament will start Thursday afternoon, and only those who have registered with John Marshall before tomorrow night will be entered. The eight players who reach the quarter finals of the tournament will play matches with the Varsity and last year's Freshman team during the fall season. The Varsity, with most of last year's men back, is conceded a good chance for its second succ.es- sive Conference championship. Cap- tain Barton, Moore, and Schaefer, all letter winners, should form a strong nucleus for the 1928 team. squad, recently clipped to 41 members by the freshly honed pruning shears~ back to the old blocking and tackling drill for which the Michigan coaching system is so noted. This is a depart- ment of work from which the Wol verines will not be exempt until the season is ended. To tlG Coaclis, bhlking and tackling are t a football what hit- ting and fielding are to baseball.

The freshman "pony" backs were again brought over to assist the Var sity yesterday. They played th dummy role against some 18 linemen whom the coaches felt lacking of tack ling practice. The freshmen were fas and more than interesting-so wer some of the larger linemhen. With Harrigan and Grinnell the pair at th starting end of the tackling line and, Baer and Palu - erol" at the other eud,, the out- loQk was not so promising for the yearlings. Frank Harrigan, incidentally, is with little doubt the most improved player on the squad over a year ago With his speed, weight, and shiftiness the Grand Rapids kbasketljall star, converted from back to end to tackl seems to have found his position at last. Yesterday, he tackled hard and sure and looked generally good other- wise. Other freshman backs were pro- cured to exercise the Varsity backs, but their work was of a different nature. They played as no more than dummies to be taken out of the play by a fast charging backield blocker clearing the way for the ball carr~ier.. While Gilbert may be mainly known for his offensive play, he has other de- partments in which he is most profi cient. Blocking-is one of them-when he blocks an opponent, said opponent stays blocked! Blocking by the backs and clearing the way for the man running with th ball appeared to be rather weak in general against Wesleyan Saturday only occasionally flashes of good form being shown by the interference.

I. A. (dRAIRDEN. - back about ascribes in a score of years ago, this week's Liberty the second 1926 Wolverine victory over Minnesota to a badly outplayed team taking advantage of a single break. In the final analysis it must be ad- mitted that every branch of the grid pastime with the possible exception of, the forward pass may be classified as either "leg drive" or "brains" as ex- ports of even Eckersall's renown agree. Now what is commonly called a "break" is no more than a turning point in the game, but is a part of the game, not an external force causing the turning point. When Oosterbaan recovered the poor center pass from McKinnon to Nylahl in the final quarter and raced, ahead of the latter and others to a touchdown, it was not the first play of the kind in a crucial contest. In fact, recognizing the possibility, even the probability of such a fumble on the part of the Gopher squad, 'Coach Yost of the Wolverines drilIe(l his charges at length in daring to scoop up, not fall upon a loose ball' during the last Michigan workout be- Lore making the trip to Minneapolis. With the recent rulings which now greatly eliminate the free ball, and with the advent of Coach Wieman, Michigan now resorts to the safer tac- tics widely employed at Harvard, Yale,a and the East in general with the ex- ception of the Tigers under Roper, who resemble the Wolverines in ac- tion. 3ut the extreme cold and snow fore- cast by weather authorities and the (Continued on Page Nine.)

In the 200 yard relay the ineligibles won by a narrow margin when Buck Samson, anchor man, touched out Capt. Bob Darnall of the Varsity. Walker, Reif, and Hawkins were the other members of the winning team. Hughes of the Varsity won the 200 yard breast stroke by outdistancing Thompson and Halsted. The 150 yard back stroke was annexed by Spindle of the Varsity, who was closely fol- lowed by his teammate, Hubbell. Boldt of the ineligibles placed . third D~arnall beat Samson by inches in the 50 yard free style: Walker of the in eligibles took third place. In the 100 yard free style Johnny Hawkins, former Princeton star, led a fast field to the finish, Darnall of the Varsity was second, while Seagar finished third. Ault of the Varsity was leading Samson over a greater part of the dis- tance in the 400 yard swim, but he weakened towards the finish, allow- ing giant ex-captain to pass and beat him by more than 10 yards. Gold- smith of the ineligibles sprang a sui. prise when he took third place from Watson by a matter of inches. I if A :Purveyor to the Fastidiously Dressed Gentleman!
