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.

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 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.

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. Score by periods: So.

SPARTANS SVA BEFORE GAG E By John W. Pritchard 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.
