Some dived into cellars, some snapped their fingers and smiled satisfactorily, and others rushed for the telephone. At one house, a waiting line of ten men, each representing a different group, stood in line to make calls. After much hullabaloo and hel- ter-skelter, the word was passed that it was nothing more than a representative from the Dean's of- fice and a group of fire inspectors Raber, Sutherland Announce Resignations As Candidates For Senior Class President Dean of Students, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan. Dear Sir: Because of the closeness' of the balloting for the Senior Class presidency considerable factional difficulty has developed. I believe that this friction should be care- fully avoided in future elections, and so with the best interests of the class of '29 at heart, I with- draw my name as a candidate. Sincerely yours, Loy M. Sutherland. Dean of Students, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan, Dear Sir: Due to the intense friction between parties active in the re- cent election; and due to the closeness of the final count, I, Fen- ton Raber, withdraw my nomina- tion for president of the senior class of '29. I firmly believe the efforts of those in charge of the electionto be sincere andimpartial, and hope that the difficulties which were evident in this elec- tion can be avoided in the future. Sincerely, Fenton Raber. TAPPING VISITS STATE ALUMNI T.

To have held a new election with both of these candidates in the field would have been merely to pro- tract a situation which has already become extremely unpleasant, we feel. The committee realizes that these two withdrawals have meant considerable sacrifice to both men, and were presented only for the purpose of putting an end to the controversy resulting from the recent election at which they received practically a tie vote. Neither would leave his supporters leaderless if he did not feel that the best interests of the class of '29 were to be served thereby. After an extensive investigation of rumors this committee has found that actual evidence of fraud in the recent election is practically negligible; and that the attempts at fraudulent voting were about evenly distributed between partisans of the two factions. We are abso- lutely certain that neither of the presidential candidates was involved in any of the few attempts that were made to register fraudulent ballots. Because this committee feels that the factional struggle which so evenly divided the class on Wednesday will be ended by the with- drawal of these two candidates, another election will be held at 4 o'clock Monday. The committee wishes to extend again its thanks to Mr. Raber and Mr. Sutherland for their manifest spirit of fair play, and feels that their withdrawal in the interests of class harmony is the finest per- sonal action which has arisen from the entire election. The class has gained as much from this display of sportsmanship as it would have gained through the admittedly competent presidency of either of these men.

This is the first meeting of Michigan and Indiana since 1925, and on that occasion also the Hoosiers came to An Arbor. This will be their first appearance in the new Michigan stadium, and. their sixth battle with the Wolver- ines on the gridiron. It is expected that the atten- dance at today's contest will be Fabout 30,000, it was announced by the Athletic association, late yes- terday afternoon. In meeting Indiana, Michigan is opening, its Big Ten competi- tion a week earlier than is usual. In the past it has been customary to have the annual Michigan State battle, the second game on the schedule. This year the latter con- test has been placed near the end of the season. Indiana students are coming to Michigan by all forms of traveling known to college students. From reports there are many driving, al- though Indiana, like Michigan, has an auto ban. Another large group -".A "I---- - Group And Pep Assemblies, Class Banquet Arranged For Class Of '32 TO ORGANIZEFOR GAMES Plans which include two group meetings and a pep assembly for freshmen before the annual Fall games and an all freshman ban- quet to be held within a few days after the games have been made by the underclass department com-{ mittee of the Union it was announ- ced yesterday by Jackson A. Wil- cox, '30, chairman. The all-freshman banquet, plan- ned to be held about Dec. 1 will be the first of its kind. It will be held, at the Union and it is hoped by committeemen, will be attended by all men in the class of 1932. Two years ago an attempt to hold a similar banquet was made by Union officials but failed owing to laxity, of interest among the : freshman that year. In further outlining the under- class program which is decidely different from that of previous years, Wilcox announced that there would be six freshman groups sponsored by the Union this fall. Each group will contain between 150 and 200 men. The first group meetings, it is announced, will be held on Oct. 23 nr )r m , ..__ ..T._ -L Wolverine teams of all times hand- ed Coach 'Navy Bill' Ingram's Hoosiers a 63-0 defeat on Ferry field. Invaders Are Determined Theinvaders will enter the game resolved to avenge that reverse as well as the three others sustained at the hands of Maize and Blue teams in 1901, 1902, and 1903. Victorious in their opening games with Wabash and Oklahoma univer- sities, the Crimson will probably take the field favorites over the Wolverines, but it is the belief of loyal Michigan fans that the team which opposes the Hoosiers on the gridiron this afternoon will perform in a vastly different manner from that of last week. Tentative lineups given out last Snightindicate that the makeups of both teams will be considerably altered from those of last week. In- juries have caused Pat Page to shift his battle front, while Coach Tad Wieman is making several changes in the hope of strengthening the right side of the Michigan line and supplying the backfield punch that was so sadly lacking in the Wes- leyan game. Matthews To Be On Sidelines Defense captain 'Rags' Matthews, one of the outstanding guards in the Big Ten last year, will be on the sidelines because of injuries, as will Paul Baley, quarterback, while Trobaugh, veteran guard, was un- able to make the trip. Swihart has been selected by Coach Page to fill Matthews' place in the forward wall. In the backfield, Coach Page has built his tricky offense around Cap- tain Bennett, whom arMichigan scout describes as "the sweetest back in the Western Conference," and the Wolverines must watch him with the utmost vigilance if they hope to halt the Hoosier's drive. At quarter, the veteran Harrell will probably be replaced by Bru- baker with Ross and Hughes com- pleting the quartet. In the absence of Harrell, the punting duties will fall to Hughes, the Crimson full- back. M~c higanwill place her hopes for victory on a greatly altered lineup, and the result of the contest will undoubtedly hinge largely on how the four newcomers perform in their first game as members of the Varsity team this season. Wolverine Lineup Changed The changes in the Wolverine line will be Draveling at right end, Williams at right tackle and Squier has been named as the probable starter at right guard, although it is possible that Steinke will get the call. Both Williams and Drav- eling are big men, but neither has had any Varsity experience. It is also expected that Cragin will start at' left guard unless Poe's injured knee improves considerably. Coach Tad Wieman will also place a completely revamped back- field combination on the field against the Hoosiers. Del Whittle, letterman from the 1927 squad, will call signals and his passing ability should lend potency to the Michi- gan attack. Totzke will team with Captain Rich at the halves and is slated to do most of the punting, while Joe Gembis will again hold down the fullback post.
