Although the Wolverines left early last night, they took advantage of a fine afternoon and brushed up on their signals, punting and passing in a light two-hour drill. Even though they are rated pre-game favorites, they made certain that they would be prepared for dnything that lighter Columbia has to offer.j Several injuries were reported by members of the Michigan team, but none of them are' so serious that a little tape and precaution could not relieve any tension that might grow in the minds of the Maize and Blue fans. If any of them are important enough to cite, it might be that Tippy Lockard's knee, injured in practice last week, is still causing the 2oaches and Lockard a bit of worry. All in all, if the two teams are given at least an even break in the weather, 3aker Field will be the scene of a fine game tomorrow. (Special To The Daily) NEW YORK, N. Y. Nov. 13.-Virtually on the eve of Michigan's important clash with Columbia's Lions at Baker Field Saturday, gridiron experts here are stressing one big angle-the Wolverines' amazing intersectional record. Amazing is hardly the word; unparalleled would be more apt. For Michigan has met 21 intersectional opponents during the past 15 sea- sons, dropping only one contest and tying another. Meeting some of the nation's finest grid talent, the Wolverines have racked up victory on end, including two wins' over Columbia in 1935 and 1936. Only Penn- sylvania in 1936 has beaten the Maize and Blue since its 6-6 deadlock with Navy back in 1928. AND when intersectional records are discussed it is only natural that some grid graybeards bring up the fact that Michigan participated in the first intercollegiate football game in the Midwest. It was back in 1879 when Fielding H. Yost, still looking forward to his tenth birthday, was just a lad in short trousers. Racine College of Racine, Wis., had challenged any college in the country to a game and Michigan finally accepted. The game was played in the spring in order to give the Ann Arbor team sufficient time to learn the game. DESPITE a somewhat confused newspaper account by some anony- mous person who obviously was a Racine rooter, the score went down in history as a 1-0 victory for the Michigan squad after a tough battle. May 30th was the day of the long-awaited meeting and a small crowd of "ardent admirers of each club" attended. And although the writer's team lost, "still the game gave such interest and satisfaction that the defeat can be overlooked in a certain way." After a short hitch-"owing to the fact that one boundary line was not yet made, the calling of the game was delayed until 4"-everything was set and play started after Michigan won the toss. FOR A LONG TIME things were pretty even.. Then Michigan got a slight edge. As the Racine observer put it: "Scrimimage after scrimmage took place, but a few feet seemed to be gained each time by Ann Arbor as the wind favored them." Pond, evidently a halfback, set up Michigan's scoring play whenihe "got hold of the ball, and like a steam engine, and with a velocity of 40 miles an hour, the Goliath rushed through the crowd until Ormsby, with his athletic skill, brought him to the ground." THERE FOLLOWED: some kind of an argument and again the writer who covered the game was a little hazy. "There was a little dispute here," he wrote, "during which time Pond and DePuy of Ann Arbor, and Greene, Martin and Johnston of Racine, hugged one another on the highest row of seats behind the north goal (for there is a tier of seats at that end of the park)." Which is indeed a strange fashion to settle an argument. But it was finally concluded and play resumed. Only two minutes of play remained when Michigan scored the winning point. THE WRITER swallowed his disappointment and went on to say: "There was every kind of goodi feeling displayed, and at the end our team cheered the Ann Arbors, who returned the compliment to us. Ra-Ra-Ra-Racine went up as our omnibus drove off, and everything seemed to go off pleasantly and well." "In conclusion," the article ended, "the umpires, Mr. Pettet of Ann Arbor, and Mr. Rice of Racine, were very satisfactory; while we must say commendation should be given to Mr. Van Dyke for the just and fair deci- sions he made in every case as referee."
