TEAM LACKS GOOD KICKER
(Py Dan. Albreet.)
Sports Editor, The Daily Cardinal.]
MADISON, Wis., Oct. 11.--The Wis-
consin football team, back from its
26-6 victory over Kansas, today began
final preparations for its all-important
mneetiag with Michigan, Oct. 15.
The Badgers gained considerable
self-confidence Saturday from the
convincing manner in which they
riddled the Jayhawker line and, in
turn, held their own against the Jay-
hawker attack. With another week of
practice., the team should present an
even stronger front against the invad-
ing Wolverines.
Center Attack Aronmid Crofoot.
The Wisconsin attack this year is
built almost wholly about Capt. Edwin
J. "Toad" Crofoot and Gene Rose,
quarterback and running halfback, re-
spectively. Both showed to advantage
in the opening-game against Cornell
college, but their work at Knsas def-
ititely established their as key-men in
thie Badger offensive.
Crofoot is a speedy, shifty runner
Who carries the ball from. several
formations and is especially danger-
ous as a pass-receiver. The combina-
tion of Rose to Crofoot brought Iowa
and Chicago to their downfall last
season, and the Wisconsin captain ac-
counted for two touchdowns last Sat-
urday by catching passes over the
line.4
Rose is Double Threat.
Pokessing as he does the double
threat of a runne rand passer, Rose
is looked upon as the coming star of
the Wisconsin squad. He made num-
erous long gains both against Cornell
and Kansas, his most spectacular feat
to date being a 37-yard run to a touch-
down last Saturday.
Although Rose and Crofoot domin-
ate the Wisconsin backfield, numerous
other men are fighting earnestly for
positions in the same lineup. Lewis
Smith and Harold Rebholz stand as
the best candidates for fullback.
Which is the better must still be de-
termnined.
Many Backfield Aspirants
Fighting for the other halfback post
are Harry Kyr, Joe Kresky, Pat Mo-
hardt, Bo Cuisinier, and "Babe" Wei-
gent. All of these particulary Kresky
and Cuisinier, possess .good points.1
The one department that has wor-
ried Wisconsin most this season has
to do with punting. Crofoot and Reb-
Sholz. have been doing heavy duty as'
kickers, but neither appears able to
match the punting sill of Louis Gil-
bert, Michigan halfback.

Thirty odd Wolverines, accompanied
by Coaches Wieman, Kipke and Brown,

ness manager of the Athletic associa-
tion and Direcior Yost, will depart to-
night on their initial road trip of the
season in quest of a victory over Wis-

the year.
Conference rules allow a s .- eol

road squad which limits the
number of players to about '3.
Coach Wieman will not annouice
these making the journey until
the final 1' mne phaetice this after-
noon.
The Michigan squad will occupy
special cars which will 'be picked up
at 11:42 by the regular Michigan Cen-
tral train and will arrive in Madison
tomorrow morning. A short signal
drill and limbering practice will be
held on Randall field' tomorrow after-
noon.
This afternoon's program calls
for a signal drill and defense work
against Wisconsin plays. Tonight
the team will assemble for a meet-
ing at the Union at 8:30 after
whici: they will go to their sleep-
ing cars, taking part in the gen-
eral sendoff.
Secret drill was again the order
yesterday with the team divided ac-
cording to positions for polishing off
its defense. Later in the afternoon
the team worked on the offense with
a picked squad of freshmen forming
the opposition in a semi-scrimmage.

(Py Associated Press)
CHICAGO, Oct. 12.-President Ban
Johnson of the American league to-
night entered the stretch run of his
career as a baseball power after
serving the league 27 years. The re-
tiring president called a meeting of
his board of directors for Chicago next
Monday when the affairs of the league
will be presented them preparatory to
his surrendering of office at that time.

for Coach Matt Mann's Big Ten cham-
pionship tank squad.
Invitations have -been sent to the.
former members of the Big Three
to open the new pool planned for the
Intramural building, completion of
which is contracted for, by February,
and indications point to the probabil-
ity of a match between two of the
three most prominent contenders for
national honrs during the past few
seasons.
Two Michigan A.A.U. meets are
planned for the Union pool before
January, however, one to be held here
December 2, and the other to be de-
cided upon at a meeting of the ama-
teur body of the state Saturday night
in Detroit.
Coach Mann will present an array
of swim stars which again is expected
to completely overshadow all opposi-
tion in state competition.
Four regularly enrolled members in
the University, only two of whom are
members cf the Varsity squad, are all
eligible to engage in A.A.U. competi-
tion, forming a combination that is ex-
pected to shatter at least one world's
record for four-man relay teams.
Captain Darnall and Seager are the
Varsity swimmers, while ex-Captain
Samson and Hawkins, formerly a
.Princeton leader, complete what will
undoubtedly become the fastest colleg-
fate squad ever assembled.

Auto Race When Burning Car

TIRE CAUSES MISHAP
(By Associated Press)
ROCKINGHAM SPEEDWAY, Alen,
N. H., Oct. 12-The 200 mile Columbus
day sweepstake automobile race here
was called off today when Harry
Hartz's machine blew a tire on 1 he
51st lap, rolled over five times and
caught fire, and set the board track
blazing in four places directly in front
of the grandstand.
While uit mechanics and track fire
apparatus subdued the flames the
other races were flagged off the
track as the referee called off the
race. Hartz was taken to the field
hospital with a split head and broken
leg while race officialsasmapped out
a program for the rest of the day.
The accident occurred when Hartz
attempted to pass Frank Lockhart,
who was leading, by a terrific dash
high along the upper edge of the
track. The machine reeled out of
chntrol as the tire went, crashed to
the dirt at the infield rail, and bounc-
ed back to the track.
Hartz was thrown clear of the blaz-
ing wreckage as the machine began a
series of cartwheels.
Hartz is prominent in automobile
racing circles, having been an annual
participant in the 500 mile Memorial
Day classic at Indianapolis. He also
has taken part in many other races
here and abroad.
