"Tomorrow," Coach Wieman said, "approximately 85,000 people will as- scmble in the new Michigan stadium to -see the football game between the teams representing the University of Michigan and the United States Naval Academy. My talk tonight is primari- ly intended for the "Stadium Crowd." If you donotthold a ticket, what I have to say tonight will either not interest you or it will merely add to your disappointment at not being able to see the game. "Watch for 47" N'Captain Iennie Oosterbaan, of Muskegon, plays left end. He is the big fellow with number 47 on his, back. This is Bennie's last year. He has played on two championship foot-1 ball teams at the University of Mich-i igan, two championship basketball teams and one championship baseball team. Also, he has twice been select- ed as All-American end. Don't forget to look for number 47. He is, per- haps, the greatest all around athlete in any college, or university today., "The right tackle, Norman Gabel, of Detroit, has a number of distinctions. He is the tallest man on the team; the heaviest man on the team; and the best student.

He comes from Grand Ha- ven, Michigan, and is, I believe, the only boy from that town to have won a Michigan "M" in football. "Jim Miller who played his first game at quarterback against Chicago last Saturday will again be at the signal-calling post. He is a great boy, and a fine leader. He has never fallen down on anything we have asked him to do on the football field. He did! an almost perfect job of running the team against Chicago last Saturday and I have great confidence in him for tomorrow. Jim is a Law student and comes from Adrian. Pommerening At Tackle. , Next to Bennie will be Otto Pem- merening at left tackle. Otto is anj Ann Arbor boy and is playing his first varsity football this season. He isj known by his teammates as theI "Sphinx" because of his unbroken si- lence. But, as long as Otto keeps busy with his feet and hands we are not much concerned about his tongue. At the halfback positions you will see Louis Gilbert, of Kalamazoo and Joe Gembis, .of Vicksburg, Michigan. You all know Gilbert. He will kick, pass, run, and receive passes. He does all these things well. His number is 16 and he will be worth watching .tomorrow. "Joe Gembis has been incapacitated most of the seasonbbut he is now ready to play and will start the game at right half. "George Rich will play fullback again. He made a reputation as a line bucker against Chicago last Saturday which he will try to uphold tomorrow. George is another law student and! his home is in Cleveland. Whole Squad Young. "Although most of these boys are up- perclassmen they are relatively young in years. The oldest man in this line-3 up, Otto Pommerening, tackle, is 23.' The younest is Joe Gembis, halfback, who is 19. The average age of the eleven men starting the game is 20 10-11ths years. Six of the eleven are seniors, four are juniors, and one isS a sophomore. I have never known a finer lot of boys than those in this group," Coach Wieman declared. "We have had an exceptionally good time together. We have had our fun and we also have had our serious times. All in all we have come to knowE each other almost as well as it is possible for a group of individuals to INVESTIGATION NEARS END WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.--Stray ends of the skein of evidence in the Fall-Sinclair oil trial tangle were gathered together today by the grand jury while prosecuting officers pre- pared for presentation of what they described as a startling disclosure in the case. These officers said the new angle would be developed Monday or Tues- day and that in the meantime they could not even hint at its nature as premature announcement might result in a checkmating of their carefully laid plans to piece this into the whole fabric. The grand jury will conclude its second week of work with a two-hour session tomorrow and those directing the investigation hope to complete the presentation of evidence by Tuesday. !Then the graild jury will decide whether it is to make a presentment upon which indictments would be based. While no one can tell what is in the mind- of the grand jury, the expecta- tion now is that there will be many indictments or 'a single indictment 1naming a number of persons, includ- Ing some not heretofore identified with the Naval oil lease scandal. W. Sherman Burns, who was em- ployed by Henry Mason Day, one of Harry F. Sinclair's most confidential ! associates, to assign detectives to shadow the oil trial jury, today pre- sented additional records of his agen- cy, showing the activities of his opera- tives after Oct. 28, the last date in the records he produced yesterday. Several more of the Burns opera- tives were examined on the basis of reports theymade totheirhsuperiors and which went into the hands of Day and Sheldon Clark, another Sinclair associate who, with Day, now stands { charged with conspiracy to influence the verdict of the jury. Today's investigation brought infor- Imation that no such automobile li- I censes as some ofsthose described in those of the Burns men ever had been issued in the District of Columbia. Mrs. Maggie Dodd, a boarding house keeper on 42 street in the southwest section of Washington, was called for checking up one report of Operative Samuel Kirby that he rented a room in the Dodd establishment so that he could better watch Juror Carl Holt.

Manoilescu, former und- ersecretary of finance, who is on trial charged with complicity in a Carolist plot, today revealed that former Crown Prince Carol did not seek the throne he had renounced, but only membership on the regency. "The prince is too loyal and decent to think of dethroning his own son," Manoilescu declared in highly emo- tional tones. With a courage that as- tounded even his own lawyers, he lash- ed at the present government as a disaster to Rumania.. Manoilescue startled the court room by stating that Carol was firmly con- vinced there is a growing movement for a republic. "Every day's events strengthens the I prince's convictions," Manoilescu as- serted. "Hence his desire to return is merely an expression of his anxiety to strengthen the regency and thereby fortify his own family dynasty." Manoilescue insisted that it was im- possible to attribute to himself any in- tentions other than those entertained by Carol and therefore there never was any question in his mind of changing either the king or the consti- tution as charged against him. Must Follow Rules in Cheering Section All students who are to sit in the cheering section this afternoon are asked by officials of the Student Coun- cil to comply with the regulations of the section willingly. Attention is called to the fact that students who present themselves at the section without their uniforms will not be per- mitted to sit in the section. Students in this section are asked to arrive promptly at game time or a few minutes before and to obey the cheerleaders in all of their requests. Cooperation is asked if it becomes necessary for the leaders to rearrange some of the seats to emphasize the outline of the black 'M' which the CAPACITY CROWD AT PEIP MEETI NG HEILD GREATER ENThUSIASM FROM SI'1TD)ENfT BODY URGED BY EM UNENT ATTORNEY KIPKE LAUDS STUDENTS Varsity Band, singing, Kipke, Rich, And Donaldson Comprise The Pep Program "Michigan is not going to lose the Navy game tomorrow, we'll smash the Navy," asserted Charles T. Rich, prominent Cleveland attorney and father of George B. Rich, '30L, plung- ing fullback of the Varsity team, who was the principal speaker at the pep meeting held last night in Hill audi- torium. Claiming thiit the cheering of the Michigan stands should be much louder and more enthusiastic, Rich said, "When you're in those stannds to- morrow, cheer hard, the harder you cheer, the harder your team will play, and the harder they play, the better they'll push the Navy back to the sea."s Asbeck Is Chairman At the beginning of the pep-meeting, after music by the Varsityband, Fred Asbeck, '29, chairman of the meeting, introduced Earl V. Moore,of the j School of Music, who led the crowd in singing several Michigan songs, in- cluding "Varsity" and "The Victors," urging also that the students respond at the game and sing the songs. Coach Harry Kipke paid a tribute to the st"dent body for the way in whichl the defeat of the Wolverines by Illi- nois was received two weeks ago. "It is easy," said Coach Kipke, "To back a winning team. Anyone will do that. Michigan has always had great teams. But there are times when victory does( not result for her teams; breaks occurI often which turn the tide of the game. Donaldson Speaks Speaking for the faculty, Prof. Bruce Donaldson, of the fine arts de- partment, declared that "College spirit; is what makes intercollegiate football clean, and it is up to you who are stu- dents of a great institution to keep it clean by the right spirit. We at Mich- igan have a great reputation for clean, square football. Let's maintain that reputation, and let it be known always that Michigan football teams are fair, that they play a thoroughly clean scout the Wolverines against Chica- go. Some indication of how mulh stress Navy is putting on this game may be guessed from the fact that this is the first time Ingram has scouted an opponent since coming to Annapolis. Another thing which must be con- sidered is that the Middies would like nothhig better than to vindicate them- selves at Ann Arbor after, being swamped here two years ago, Coach Tad Wieman yesterday an- nounced a wholesale shakeup in the Wolverine battle front over that which faced Chicago a week and list- ed four changes. Herman Nyland will be back at his place at right end, although Leroy "Willee" Heston is sure to play. Howard Poe, a sopho- more who has been showing well of late,,will be at right tackle in place of Gabel. A third shift in the line will see Schoenfeld at center in place of Bovard. Backfield Sifted About The backfield also will be moved about a bit with Gembis slated for the fullback job and George Rich moving to halfback to replace Puck- elwartz. Gilbert, the other half and Miller.at quarter will round out the backfield. -Joe Gembis has been out with an injured shoulder since the Ohio State game but is expected to be in good sKhape to hurl his 190 pounds at the Navy line today' with telling effect. George Rich, who earned a reputation- in the Chicagogame will alternate with him, and between the two, Mich- iganashould present a strong ,plung- ing attack. - Versatile Backfield To Star Versatility will not be laqking in the backfield, however, with "Elus- ive Louie" Gilbert and Jim Miller on hand for passing and slashes off tackle. Rich is also fast and can fig- ure at either end of the passing game. If there is any doubt about Gembis' shoulder being in shape, Puckelwartz will be back at half and Rich, at full- back. Navy's lineup seems to be rather a puzzle with the great possibility of a wholesale shakeup. Coach Ingram has a set of some eight or nine backs to choose from when all are in shape, but Spring is on the injured list as is Captain Hannegan. The latter, how- ever, is expected to be in shape. In case Hannegan is not able to play Whelchel will fall heir to the signal calling job to match wits with Jim Miller, new Michigan field gen- eral. Lloyd, converted end, is certain to be in the Navy backfield doing the punting but the other two places are disputed. ' .r-.. .+ ........ _ !yeser tay morning lnt a niigcu ,J.
