Borg Beats Talhelm

the fall season by inclement wea-

tournament have been completed

the final round of play.
Borg defeated Kelly, 1927 cham-

retaining his accuracy in the finals,
took two straight games from Tal-
helm, to win the loving cup, and
All-Campus championship. The
score for the final round of play

NEBRASKA-ARMY GAME
ATTRACTSPOOR GROWD
(By Associated Press)
NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-Nebraska's
tussle with the Army will be the
only intersectional football in the
east Saturday.
The game is not drawing the
same public interest it might1
have but for two unforseen inci-
dents during the last two weeks'
or so. Army apparently . was a
certainty to enter the battle with
the Cornhuskers undefeated but
Notre Dame spoiled all that on
November 10. Last Saturday, Ne-
braska, unbeaten and untied, was
held to a scoreless draw by Pitts-
burgh.
A Yale-Harvard battle draws
its 70,000 spectators, rain or shine,
unsuccessful season or otherwise.
Nothing short of an earthquake
can affect that attendance.
Six Wolverine cross-country rita-
ners, without the services of Cap-
tain Wuerfel, will leave toni Flt
with Coach Farrell for ratison
where they will compete against
the other Big Ten schools for the
Conference title Saturday morn-
ing.
This title has been won for the
last four years by a strong Badger
team, but this year Iowa will enter
as heavy favorites. The Hawkeyes
with a team of sophomores have
beaten Illinois, Minnesota, .,and
Wisconsin in dual meets this year,
while Illinois, has gained a victory
over the Wolverines and Ohio in a
triangular meet at Columbus. The
other cross-country squads in the
Big Ten are not strong this year.
To Reach Madison Friday
A knee injury will keep the star
Wolverine captain at home during
this meet, but Michigan will be
well represented by Monroe,
Aubrey, Benson, Austin, Justin and
Grunow. This team will arrive at
the Badger school Friday morning,
and with weather permitting will
jog over the five mile Varsity
course that afternoon to get the
lay of the land.
Inclement weather has kept the
Varsity in the Field house for the
past few days, the team being
somewhat handicapped due to this,
but Coach Farrell says that a
cross-country race held in the kind
of weather which is prevailing at
present is always in doubt as some
men run better in mud than others
of greater speed.
