18 Varsity football ien Expected
Back For early Work On Sept.
Sailing Aug. 30 from New York,
Prof. F. W. Kelsey and Mr. George R.
Swain, both of the Latin department
of the University, will start their ex-
pedition through southern Europe
where they will study the ancient bat-
tlefields of Caesar in the light of the
'present war. It was announced yes-
terday that passage had been booked
to London on the liner Royal George.
Professor Kelsey will be accompanied
by Mrs. Kelsey and son, Easton.
Although it was originally announc-
ed that the expeditionary party would
be escorted by several military men,
government ruling has made this im-
possible for the fall and winter. Mili-
tary escort, however, will be provided
in the spring.
Special photographic equipment for
the expedition will be provided by the
Eastman company of Rochester,
which will shiprsupplies directly to
New York. Three cameras and one'
kodak will comnprise the picture tak-
ing facilities, but practically all the
work will be done on film, as the
plates are too cumbersome to carry1
about with such a party. Special ar-
rangements are also being made for
shipments of chemicals and other1
supplies.
Private donations amounting to
$26,000 have made possible this ex-
pedition in the intersts of humanistic 1
research,, although the University is
sponsoring the work. The survey-
ing work is expected to be completed
in about a year.r
Riflemen Leave

Today for Ileet,
Six Varsity football men have al-
ready announced that they will re-
port on Ferry field for preliminary
practice the middle of next month.
and definite word from the dozen other
regulars who are still numbered
among the possibilities is, expectedl
within a few days.
Captain Goetz, Czysz, Dunne, Froem-
ke, Weston, and Ward Culver are the
ones who have already agreed to come
back for the early work. while Wil-
son, Barnes, and Eades, who have yet
to win the Varsity insignia, have al-
so announced that they will, be on
hand for preliminary training under
Coach Yost.
The early work will start Sept. 15,
and approximately 30 candidates for
the 1919 Varsity are expected to re-
port on that date. The entire coach-
ing staff will be present throughout
the preliminary training, and the
early date of the Case game willf
force the men to round into shape
rapidly this fall.
Working Out Already
The presence of an unusually large
number of veterans will make i eas-
icr for the coaches to hurry alongt
the early work, as less time will be3
required for the fundamentals than is
usually devoted to this work in other
seasons. A number of the men are t
working out at frequent intervals this 1
summer so as to be in fair shape
when they report in September
The veterans who have alread
agreed to return for the early wor
insure Yost a guard, two tackles, a
end, a quarter and a halfback. T.h
is as big a nucleus of seasoned play
ers as the Michigan coach has had i
many previous years, but this fall h(
has in addition an even dozen me
from whom nothing definite has ye
been heard but whom he expects wi
be back for another year's play.
Line to Average 190 Pounds
If these men return Michigan wil
have a team made up entirely of me
who have already won their footbal
"M's". The all-Varsity line would
average 190 pounds, while any of th
backfields that could be formed of th
available veterans would averag
close to 160 pounds.
The return of a number of thes
men is, of course, still doubtful, bu
enough are certain to return to in
sure Yost a heavy, experienced line
and a fast, aggressive set of backs
In addition to the "M' 'men who ar
expected back, there are a number o
experienced men who have just failed
to win their Varsity letters in pas
years. Several of these men may be
able to land regular berths this fall
Competition is especially keen a
the end and halfback positions, there
being no less than 16 experienced men

Geneva, Aug. 13. - The seizure in

Under charge of Prof. C. E. Wilson,
of the mechanical engineering depart-
ment, former major'in the U. S. army,
the Michigan civilian rifle team of 12
members leaves today on the Michi-
gan Central to participate in the na-
tional matches at Caldwell, N. J.
On the state team will appear the
names of four University men in ad-
dition to that of Professor Wilson.)
George M. Gilmore, Carl H. Mason,
J. D. Lowry, and D. W. Kaufman are
the men who will be included on the
12-man team, recruited from the state
at large. At the time the work was
turned over to Professor Wilson there
remained but two men to be selected,
and these places were assigned to Gil-
moretandnMason after competitive
shooting on the local range.
The expenses for the Michigan con-
tingent will be paid by the govern-
ment, the state also being represented
by a national guard team which trav-
els under similar conditions.
Shooting in Three Classes
Shooting at the Caldwell range, the
largest in the United States, will be
conducted in three classes, the mili-
tary, civilian, and university matches
being run off separately. Because of
lack of funds at the University it was
impossible to send a team from Ann
Arbor, though a number of expertr
rifiemen were available for such anl
aggregation.
As a direct result of the agitation,
started for a rifle team in the Uni-
versity this summer,- it is expected
hat the institution will next year 'take i
up this branch of sport as a recog-z
nized activity. Enthusiasts are al-
'eady planning for a branch of the e
National Rifle association in the city.
Harilee to Command
Lieut-Col. William C. Harlleo of
he marine corps, will have command
f the range at Caldwell during theE
ontests. It was under this same
fficer that members of the Michigan c
aval militia worked while at Great s
akes Naval Training school.
In addition to the rifle matches, t
-here will be a war exhibit by the
overnment at Caldwell. In this ex-
ibit will be over $30,000 of war equip- c
nent, including one article of each
ind used during the conflict. The e
pringfield collection of arms, for the
rst time removed from the museumv
t Springfield, will be shown.n
Wounded to Assist
On the firing lines as markers, scor-
rs, and telephone men will be wound-
A members of the marine corps,
'hile one complete unit of the over-3
eas naval battery will also be pres-
nt at the meet.
While only the preliminary shoot- J
ng is now being done, together withK
ome special international matches; t
he big national match will not be '
eld until Aug. 28.
This meet will be the second for G. 2
. Gilmore, who, while commanding i
ficer at the rifle range at Annapolis, C
d., led a team at the one last year.
n
Many men, disabled during the war,
are writing to the University officials
for information concerningn the cour-
ses which they are desirous of pur-
suing, and a large number of discharg-
ed wounded soldiers are expected to
be in attendance next fall. It is also
thought that many of the men, who
dropped their college courses to enter.
the service, will return for the first
semester of next year.
University officials expect next
year's attendance to be the largest in
the history of the University.
According to figures given out Wed-
nesday, the enrollment for last year
was larger than ever before, with a
total registration of 9,546.
This number includes, however,
2,250 members of Section B, of the
S. A. T. C., only a few of whom were
regular students. Included therein
are also the Section 'A men, who were
taking academic work, but many of2
whom did not re-enroll after the de-
mobilization of the S. A. T. C.
Enrollment of 7,244
After deducting the ones who were
not students, it still leaves an en-b
rollment of 7,244 students,which isc
an'unusually large number. The total 1
number of students was divided amongo
the various colleges as follows: Col- 1
lege of Literature, Science, and then
Arts, 4,056; College of Engineering
and Architecture, 4,228; Medicalr
school, 470; Law school, 207; College h
of Pharmacy, 92; Homoeopathic Med-v
cal school, 31; College of Dental Sur- f
gery, 258; Graduate school, 303; Uni-
versity Hospital Nurses Training w
school, 145; and the' Homoeopathic E
Training school for Nurses, 36.
6,800 From MichiganV
By far the greater number of the r
tudents was drawn from Michigan, e
,800 coming from the Wolverine e
tate. Ohio was next with 588, In-
liana third with 338, and New York s
tate fourth with 314.
Every state in the Union, the Dis-
rict of Columbia, and the United
tates' possessions of Hawaii, Philip- s
ines, and Porto Rico as well as every U
ountry in the world except Armenia,
Manitoba, and Persia were represent- r
d by students at the University of
Michigan. This establishes the Uni-f
'ersity as being one of the most cos-
nopolitan in the world. a
