of Yost's machine. His lack of weight
which generally characterizes a aan
playing this position, is more than
made up by his style of attack seldom
found. Neiman plays what is called
or loose center, which makes
Yost think of the style of Schultz, he
having been the last center who could
get away with these tactics. Neiman
was one of the stars of the All Fresh
aggregation last season, his manner
of blocking forward passes, breaking
through the line on the defensive, and
general ability to follow the ball, mak-
ing his work a sensation.

1WHEAT IN BOX FOR STUDENTS
If anyone had any doubts as to the
calibre of the all-campus team they
were certainly dispelled yesterday
morning when the students, with
Wheat in the box, took the measure of
the Ann Arbor Independents in an
easy 6 to 1 victory. The University
All Stars, as they wre listed by the
fans present, started off with a rush in
the first round, and were never headed
during the entire contest.
One of the main featpres of the game
was the stellar work os "Buck" Wheat,
who acted as slab artist for the col-
lege team. The engineer twirler seem-
ed to have all sorts of stuff keeping
the Millman aggregation at his mercy
from the very start, ind garnering a
total of nine strikeos while his op-
ponents gained but 'three bases on
balls and five scattered hits.

SEC. GODDARD ANNOUNCES

semester of which continues a week

banded, wil hold its examinations next

nonaced the schedule yesterday. The

BUREAU IN 'U' HALLIO TAKE
PLACE OF ADVISORY SYSTEM
Freshmen and those coming to
Michigan for the first time will be as-
sisted in enrolling and getting located
by the faculty committee of freshmen
advisers and a group of selected sen-
ors. These will meet in University
hall, and give advice and help of a per-
sonal nature, such as does not fall
within the province of the admiais-
trative officials.
Four members of the committee of
12 will be in attendance during the
week of September 23 from 9:00 to
12:00 o'clock and fron 2:00 to 5:00
o'clock daily, and during the week of
September 30 from 1:00 to 5:00 o'clock
daily. Consultations will be held
throughout the year at hours to be
announced.
It is believed that the new system
which replaces that of arbitrarily as-
signing so many first-year men to each
senior will insure greater cooperation
and be more effectual.
