F'I ii It VL~iOPPONENT ka Team Stronger Than gan Eleven According To Dope.. Mici- MAIZE AND BLUE WARRIORS ARE SLIGHTLY OUT-WEIGHED Cornhuskers Number Eight Teterans sFive of Them Playing 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.

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. VOCI FEMINAE.

C. yearlings whom they meet at 1 o'clock this afternoon on Ferry field as a preliminary to the Nebraska game. 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. No change has been made in the lineup as given out by Coach Mitchell Thursday evening. With the except- 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, r.e.; Urschell, q.; Usher, I.h.; Bailey, r.h.; Stuart, f.b.
