Cornhuskers Number Eight Teterans

Third Year.
Michigan varsity meets its hardest
opponent on the 1917 schedule this af-
ternoon on Ferry field.
Nebraska's Cornhuskers, eight vet-
erans strong, will furnish the opposi-
tion, and the Wolverines will be forced
to fight from the start in order to hold
their own with their husky oppon-
ents.
Coach Yost yesterday afternon de-
clared that if his men would show the
right spirit and plug ahead from whis-
tle to whistle, they would stand better
than an even chance of defeating Dr.
Stewart's warriors from the Missouri
valley'.
"It's mighty hard to lick a fighting
team," .said the Michigan mentor,
"and our chance for- success in the
Nebraskan game will lie in fighting
throughout the contest. It's time for
the exhibition of that famous Michi-
gan spirit which has made our teams
among the most feared in the country
in years past. A lot of fight, combin-
ed with the power we have, ought to
even up the count."
Michigan Is Outweighed Slightly
There Is'no doubting the strength
of the Nebraska eleven. Their line is
heavy, outweighing the Michigan for-
ward wall, and the player are ex-
perienced. There are five three-year
and three two-year players on the
team which Michigan faces and these
men are among the best players in the
west. The odds clearly favor the Ne-
braska team on power and experience,
Michigan will have one big advan-
tage in playing on the home field.
The home crowd, a fighting student
body, and familiar surroundings will
be factors.in the final reckoning, and
ought to aid the Wolverines greatly.
The weather reports indicate a wet
field which will introduce an element
of luck into the game, as a fumble at
a critical stage of the contest may
prove to be the balance of power need-
ed. to cinch the game. If the field,s
soggy, Nebraska's heavier backs will
hold the advantage over Michigan's
lighter, shiftier attack.
Sparks and Cohn Out of Game
Yost decided yesterday afternon that
Westo. and Froemke would start the
game In the places of Sparks and
Cohn. There doesn't seem to be even
a slight chance that Sparks will be
able to get into the game, as Yost
does not want to take any chances
with his star pilot. Cohn is in even
worse condition, phyisically, than is
the demon quarterback
Michigan is undoubtedly facing a
team today thatis superior in nearly
every department of the game, and as
Yost says, it will have to be -the Michi-
gan fight and spirit that will give the
Wolverines a chance for victory.

FRESHMEN ALL SET FOR
MeANC YEARLING TA
SIEARTS TEAM READY
TO BATTLEWOLVERINES
CORNHUSKERS RUN THROUGH
FORMATIONS ON STAGG FIELD
FRIDAY MORNING.
"Nebraska is on deck ready to give
the Wolverines battle, but I do not
predict victory or defeat for my men
tomorrow," declared Coach Stewart
last night.
Coach Stewart and his 19 football
warriors arrived in Ann Arobr last
night, ready for the gruelling combat
on Ferry field this afternoon which
sport "dope predicts. The Cornhusk-
ers are all in the pink of condition ex-
cept Ridell and Otoupalik, two of the
regulars, who sustained injuries in
scrimmage practice last Tuesday that
may keep them out of the game today.
The Huskers held a light signal
practice yesterday morning on Stagg
field, running through the formations
that the Coach has selected for the
Wolverines to fathom this afternoon.
The Stagg field was in a soggy condi-
tion, but only slightly interfered with
the smooth running teamwork of the
Nebraskans.
Shaw, captain of the Nebraska var-
sity, said "His men did not concede
victory or defeat to the Wolverines'
and expected a battle royal today."
With the beef question "fifty fifty"
football merit, and not avoirdupois,
will be the big factor in today's game.
Both teams have played games that'
have given the rooters an approximate
estimate of their strength, but the
acid test will be applied today. The
Nebraskans have the punch and speed
and the varisty must come across
with the old fighting spirit.
The Nebraskan rooters and the Uni-
versity band did not make the trip
to Ann Arbor as, has been expected,
due to the heavy expense of such a
project. But they are planning to
meet their varsity players with much
display when, they come gack to the
Cornhusker state with the long'sought
for revenge in their possession.

Things are looking up; Coach Yost
goes so far as to admit that if Michi-
gan keeps fighting, she stands a 50-50
chance against Nebraska.
Just think of it, "admits" it! The
next is a secret, which only F. H.
Doc Stewart and one or two other
"big bugs" are in on. It is. Michigan
will fight and win with the right kind
of assistance.
Saturdaynis her gore-thirsty day,
and all she needs is a little vocal sup-
port from the stands. Drag yourself
away from the tea and wafers just
this once; bring your knitting, if you
must, but anyway, don't miss the best
game of the season.
Make the acquaitntance of Fdry
field, (really it's not half bad). If
your aesthetic lungs won't let you yell,
enhance the scene with your comely
presence.
Men who have stood in awe of the
shade of Great Maurie, forget it; drag
her to the game today. She said she
was dying to go.
Be a little life-saver; you know that
feminine shrieks have pecular persua-
sive powers, a way of either kidding
or scaring the ball toward the goal
line.
Girls who fear the weather, forget
it. Suppose it does rain, and your
curls straighten out and your com-
plexion runs. Wear a net and take a
sporting chance.
But seriously now, all kidding aside,
victory depends on the spectators.
Let's have lots of 'em, big, loud ones.
If you roar loud enough and make
a noise like a big fire, we aren't going
to miss the little Sparks so much.

Michigan freshmen are ready for the
M. A. C. yearlings whom they meet
at 1 o'clock this afternoon on Ferry

In an endeavor to round off the
rough edges, Coach Mitchell has been
scrimmaging his proteges every night,
with the exception of last evening,
for the past week. With his attack
strengthened and the line in the best
of condition the freshman coach be-
lieves his team will walk away with
the long end of the score. Little is
known 6f the Farmers' first year 'team
this season, except it lost to Albion
in the first game of the year.

lineup as given out by Coach Mitchell

ions of Usher in Reed's half and Stuart
in the full back position the lineup
will be the same as the one that met
Heidelberg.
There is a possibility that any one
of three men will start at left guard,
however, Lent, Hobbs or VonWagner.
Lent being the regular in the position.
is the more apt to begin the game but
the work of the other two men has
been good.
The lineup:
Flecher, I.e.; Culver, l.t.; Lent,
Hobbs, or VonWagner, I.g.; MacNickol,
d.; Henry, r.g.; Peocock, r.t.; Boville,
