u~en. toxey watcnes Hunger iViareners tudents Utter C or
on Wildcat Gam,
By John Thomas
} Conflicting reactions met the an-
nouncement of the Northwestern-
Michigan football game on the
campus yesterday. Approval was
stamped on the new schedule by
the majority of the students, but
many expressed "sympathy" for
Coach Kipke and his 1932 gridiron
team.
With Michigan State opening the
season, followed by Northwestern
and Ohio State, many students are
afraid for the team's chances, but
expressed the opinion that with
something to point for at the start
of the season, Michigan may easily
urprise the football fans with No-
' start of the season.
"Our new schedule is like playing
Notre Dame on three successive
:rweek-ends," one student said. ',Pure
suicide," "it's too hard," and "our
team will not have a veteran from
ackle to tackle," were answers to
the reporter's inquiries.
The largest majority is in hearty
favor of the Wildcat game. After
being tied by Northwestern for two
-years at the top of the onference

who have considered Michigan's
1932 schedule weak, one student
pointed out. Another stated that
Michigan has been after this game
for several years and all old quar-
rels can be wiped off next Oct. 8.
This game alone makes our sea-
son next year 50 per cent better
and that means 50 per cent harder
for the players, it was stated. "Of
course we like it. Why I would have
moved to Chicago for a full week if
we had received the post-season
game with Northwestern this year,"
declared one of the campus "poli-
ticians."

Army Conquers Navy
in AnnualTilt, 17-7
NEW YORK, Dec. 12.-(P)--Out-
played in the first period and fac-
ing the greatest upset of the 1931
football season, the Army rallied its
forces todayto defeat the Navy, 17
to 7, in their charity game at the
Yankee Stadium.
Army scored a field goal and a
touchdown in the second period.
The field goal was scored by Travis
Brown, who kicked from the 15-
yard line. Both Army touchdowns
were scored by Ed Herb, substitute
fullback.
Brown got in position for his field
goal when he received a long pass
from Stecker. Later in that sanie
period Herb climaxed a long march
to the Navy goal by c r a s h i n g
through for a touchdown. A series
of brilliant end runs and line
smashes brought Army to the Mid-
dies' 1-yard line in the final period,
from where Herb went over for the
last touchdown.
Navy's lone touchdown came in
the third period when Kirn passed
50 yards to Tschirgi, who crossed
the Army goal with a Cadet hang-
ing on.
Credit for much of Army's bril-
liancy was given to Stecker, whose
leadership kept the West Point at-
tack in constant motion after the
bad first period.
Score by periods:
Army ............ 0 10 0 7-17
Navy ............ 0 0 7 0- 7
FUNERAL SERVICES
HELD FORElNGINEER'
Gardner S. Williams, Ann Arbor
Resident, Former Professor
in University.
Funeral services were held at 2
o'clock yesterday afternoon for
Gardner S. Williams, one of the
leading hydraulic consulting engi-
neers in the country, at his home
at 905 Olivia Ave. Mr. Williams died
early Saturday morning following
a long illness.
He was born in Saginaw in 1866,
and graduated from the College of
Engineering in 1889. In 1899 he re-
ceived the degree of C.E. From 1904
to 1911 he was professor of Civil,
Hydraulic, and Sanitary Engineer-
ing in the engineering college, and
head of the department of civil en-
gineering. Since 1911 he has been
engaged as a private consultant
with, headquarters in Ann Arbor.
Mi'. Williams designed and built
the first dome dam in this country,
at Ithaca, N. Y., about 30 years ago.
The unique features involved in!
this type of design remained un-
used in any structure of importance
until adopted by the Department of
the Interior in the building of the
Coolidge dam across the'Gila river
near San Carlos, Ariz.
He was also a pioneer in the
building of multiple arch dams inj
this country, a type which has in
recent years been adopted in many
important structures. His last mul-
tiple arch structure was the Mag-
nitorsky on the Ural river in Russia,
one of the longest concrete dams in
the world. '
Trojans Bury Georgia
Under Big Score, 60-0
L@S ANGELES, Dec. 12.-(P)-A
southern invasion of the Pacific
coast met with disaster here today
as the Trojans of the University of
Southern California crashed their
lighter Georgian opponents under
a mass of touchdowns, rolling up a
score of 60 to 0.

California's point-a-minute tri-
umph began to take form early in
the first period when Sparling cli-
maxed a California drive to run 26
yards for the initial touchdown.
Thereafter the issue never was in
doubt. At the half the score stood,
33 to 0.

There will be more unity and.
more careful selection of subject
matter, more emphasis on research
rather than opinion, and a greater
concentration on the student as
"the object of solicitude" in the
high school curriculum of the fu-
ture, predicts Vice-President C. S.
Yoakum in an article in the Edu-
cation School Bulletin for Decem-
ber, to be issued this week.
In a large number of the sub-
jects now offered in high school,
"the rather shallow and fleeting
interests of youth are not held. or
forced to that more mature stage

be achieved by the curriculum of
the future, declares Dr. Yoakum. It
will teach every student "that self-
control is an acquired attainment,'
that 'fuzzy thinking' is a slovenly
habit, and that ideas are not easily'
attained."
"In the high school," he adds,
"will be subjects dealing with sci-
ence, literature, and art, and hu-
man relations. Preliminary prac-
tice in the three great tools-math-
ematics, language, and logic-which
enable us to know and to investi-
gate, will also be given in the high
school. With increasing skill in put-,
ting subject matter together and in
