Eggy ilHidner Makes Season's Debui
and Will- Try for One of
the Ends
Coach Fielding H. Yost closed the
gates :of Ferry field yesterday after-
noon and secret practice was intro-
duced for the first time this season
One of the assistants was stationed at
the entrance and only such favored
individuals as had the countersign
were permitted to pass.
The coach devoted a big portion of
the afternoon to kicking practice. Cap-
tain John F. Maulbetsch appeared ini
a new pair of shoes especially devised
for place kicking and the accuracy
that he displayed was far In excess of
anything that Michigan rooters have
seen yA this season. The Demon
Dutchman was dropping thea over the
bar regularly and from difficult angles
at times.
Tad Weimann and Rehor also took
a shot at place kicking and both cre-
ated a very favorable impression.
Weimann is especially accurate from
in front of the posts on the 20-yard
line, and if Maulie has any more dif-
ficulty in booting the ball over after
touchdowns, it would not be surprising
to see Tad receive the assignment. But
with the captain setting tho place that
he did yesterday afternoon, it looks as
though he would receive the call.
Ends Take Shot at Drop Kicking
Bull Dunne and Peach were work-
ing at drop kicking and although both
have considerable drive, they weren't
showing the accuracy that Maulie did.
With practice these boys will develop
into consistent men, however, for both
have shown real ability in the past.
With Yost working on his kickers,
it would not be surprising to see the
Wolverines attempt this method of
scoring against the farmers in Sat-
urday's game.
The punters were also busy and the
coach stated, following the work of
these men, that the punting in the
Aggie contest would be done by Sparks
and Bull Dunne. Sparks will prob-
ably attend to the most of this work,
for the quarterback gets the ball away
well and is in the backfield regularly,
whereas Dunne is up on the line.
Eggy Hildner reported for practice
yesterday afternoon. Hildner was on
the squad last season and he will try
for an end position. Hildner has just
returned to Ann Arbor and enrolled
in the University.
Pat Smith Not Out
Pat Smith was not out yesterday
and may not take part in any of the
workouts until tomorrow. He is suf-
fering from boils and Hanish has re-
placed him at fullback.
The coaches spent considerable time
in correcting such faultsas were de-
tected in Saturday's game and the team
was finally sent away for signal prac-
tice.
Coach Yost announced that he would
use the same lineup against M. A. C.
as that which started the Mount Union
game, with the exception of the two
back field positions. Raymond will
start at right half and Smith will prob-
ably start at fullback. If Pat isn't in
shape Hanish will receive the call.
This man Hanish has been showing
all kinds of form and his work has
pleased Yost immensely. Hanish was
starting much faster in practice yes-
terday than he did in Saturday's game,
and if he is selected to start against
the Aggies on Saturday, Yost is looking
for considerable assistance in both of-
fense and defense.
The field may be thrown open to-
morrow afternoon while scrimmage is
staged. The scrubs or the All-Fresh
will be pressed into service and Yost
may give his men the last taste of
the real thing until the whistle blows
on Saturday. Definite announcement
will be made tomorrow morning.
HOWARD BERRY RETURNS TO
PENN SQUAD FROM BORDER
Philadelphia, Oct. 1.-J. Howard
Berry, tanned and fresh from a sum-
mer spent on the border, went through
a short drill with the Penn Varsity
squad today. Folwell lined the noted
athlete up at half back with the Vars-
ity. The various fundamentals of the
game were explained to him by Fol-
well in his own way, and later Berry
learned about the "baseball pass" and
'TUFTS DOESN'T DESTROY
HARYARDCONFIDENCE
By E. PUT. WRIGHT.
Cambridge, Mass., Oct. 16.-Under a
presenit shadow of fear that the
coaches may not be able to whip the
Crimson into shape to beat Yale at
New Haven lurks a general feeling of
confidence that the showing in the
Tufts game did not do justice to the
ability of the squad. That Harvard
will come back is not questioned, wit-
ness the North Carolina game, but that
it was a lucky thing for the Cambridge
boys that Tufts defeated them is be-
side the question.
The Tufts'tdefeat rankles in the
heart of the coaches and team, and an
early season defeat in such a game
where the Crimson was so evidently
outplayed is just the thing that has
been needed to put the fight back into
the Harvard eleven. Only two men
are now out of the game on account
of injuries and these, it is expected,
will be In shape for the next contest.
Caner has been out of the game for a
week, but is back in shape ready for
scrimmage. Bond, one of the stars of
the freshman eleven last year, and
Taylor are the men who are disabled.
Regular practice for the track men
has been going on in the stadium, the
men in the track and field events
working in the early part of the aft-
ernoon, and the men in the weight
events taking their workout after 3:30
o'clock. The cross country runners
have just broken into their first vio-
lent exercise, running having started
at Belmont yesterday. The regular
preliminaries of daily morning walks
are still being held for those who are
late to report, but these will be
abandoned as soon as all the men are
in shape for the regular afternoon
runs.
Four of the university crews are
working every afternoon, and six clubI
crews, with nine freshman crews keepI
the Charles river pretty well stirred
up. The freshman crews, Gore A and1
Standish C, both have men of promiseE
on them, and the recruits from theset
two yearling eights at least should,
prove of assistance in helping out theI
university crew next year.1
Soccer and lacross are running att
swords points at present. It has been
necessary to make the ruling that any
soccer men who play lacross may en-p
ter the lacross games without practice.I
Unless 35 more men report for thet
great Indian game the scheduled games1
will have to be cancelled.
HULBERT DOWNS STROUSE
IN FALL RACQUET TOURNEYI
Perhaps the greatest surprise in
Monday's play in the fall tennis tour-
nameit was furnighed by Hulbert,
when he defeated Strouse of last year's
All-Fresh racquet team. This was by
far the best match of the day, although
the struggle between Ashley and
Aesley developed quite a bit of inter-l
est.
The remainder of the second round
must be played off by tonight and the
third round, which is the fourth col-
umn on the score sheet, must be
played off by Wednesday.
The results of the second round of
tennis are as follows:
Hulbert vs. Strouse, 4-6, 6-4, 6-3;
Hart vs. Davis, 6-1, 6-0; Paul Steketee
vs. Mooney, 6-1, 6-2; Egbert vs. Clint-
ock, 6-1, 6-0; Eugene Steketee vs. Mc-
Arthur, 6-1, 6-1; Bartz vs. Donaldson,I
6-0, 6-2; Codd vs. Borinstein, 6-2, 6-1;
Wilson vs. Aesley, 8-6, 5-7, 6-1; Mc-
Donald vs. Post, 3-6, 6-3, 6-2.
PURDUE INAUGURATES FIRST
FALL BASEBALL PRACTICE
Lafayette, Ind., Oct. 16.-For the
first time in history autumn baseball
practice has been inaugurated at Pur-
due. Coach Pattison's initial sum-
mons brought forth a big list of can-
didates, the list including no less than
14 men who have had considerable
baseball experience at Purdue.
In taking this step, Purdue expects
to gain considerably over many of her
western rivals, for fall baseball prac-
tice is uncommon in this section of the
country. Many eastern schools use fall
baseball practice but the custom has
not become prevalent as yet.

HOST OF ALUMNI LOOKED FOR SANDERS LAYS OUT .COURSE)
Tickets for the M. A. C.-Michigan
game are going rapidly. Up to the
close of the athletic association office
last night about 15,000 had been dis-
posed of.
In the north stand, where the Wol-
verine cheering section will be located,
2,760 tickets are still on sale, out of
a total of 9,000 possible seats in the
stand. Of those unsold, 2,520 are $1
seats. These begin at the west 25-yard
line and extend on in that direction
to the-end of the field. Two hundred
and forty are $1.50 seats between the
40 and 50-yard lines.
In the south stand out of a total
seating capacity of 13,200 there are
still 4,680 on sale. Out of this num-
ber the greater part are $1,00 seats
on either end of the stand extending
in to the 20-yard lines. Two hundred
and eighty $1.50 seats are still to be
disposed of. These are between the
35 and 40-yard lines, being rather
high up in the stand.
If the total capacity of both stands
is filled, there will be a rough total of
22,000 spectators. According to the
way in which the seats remaining are
being sold such a sized crowd may
reasonably be expected.
It would certainly be advisable for
all who have not yet secured their
tickets to do so today at the earliest
possible time, as the demand is steady
and shows no signs of diminishing.
Most of the student coupon tickets
have already been disposed of.
The best seats are now to be found
in the north stand, although the great-
er number of unsold seats are in the
opposite stadium. All chances are lo-
cated high up in the stands except
those $1.00 seats which are along the
lower part of the concrete edifice be-
tween the ends of the field and the 20-
yard lines.
Reserved seats have been sold at a
great rate, indicating that a large'
number of visitors will be present at
the hoped for funeral of the farmers.
Hosts of alumni are expected to return
for the battle, although not in the
proportion that might be anticipated
were the game between the Maize and
Blue and the Pennsy gridders.
INTERCOLLEGIATES
Ohio: "Wanted, red headed freshmen
for 'Red' Trautman's red headed
football team," was the call to arms'
recently sent out at the Ohio State
university.
Harvard: Plans for the construction
of a new swimming pool at HarvardF
this fall have miscarried. The new
pool was to have cost $16,000 underI
the original plans and $10,000 had
been raised for the purpose. But
costs of construction have so in-
creased that recent estimates raised
the probable cost to $25,000, and in-
stead of attempting further solicita-7
tion of funds the proposition for the
pool has been dropped for the pres-
ent.
Indiana: Indiana university is going'
in for track and field athletics this1
season and has obtained Harveyf
Cohn, who had been coach at Colby,i
to handle the candidates for the
teams. He succeeds C. C. Childs,I
one-time hammer thrower andt
weight man of the New York A. C.,1
who had coached the team for twoF
years, resigning last June. Cohn hasI
more than one hundred men at work,
out of which he expects to select a
good team to represent the univer-t
sity in the western conference gamest
this winte.
Pennsylvania: Penn lost forty-six oft
its star athletes by graduation last
summer, chief among them Meredith
and Dorizas. To fill the gap there(
has been a scurrying about by grad-
uates of the institution among prep
school boys which has resulted in
the addition to the teams. Lawson
Robertson will handle Sherman
Landers, the pole-vault champion;
Earl Erby, the half-miler; Frank1
Loomis, a sprinter and hurdler whoj
was a schoolboy sensation in Il-
linois; Eddie Shields, interscholastic;
one-miler champion; Robert Maxam
and Raymond Wallace of Washing-
ton, D. C., the former a sprinter and
broad jumper and the latter an all-
round man, who will be pointed for
pentathlon honors by Robertson.
r
With the cross country meet with
Syracuse only two weeks off, the Var-
sity C. C. C. boys are beginning to en-
gage in some pretty stiff runs as pre-
paratory work to the battle with the
Orangemen.
About 25 men were out for work yes-
terday, but even so, that is not con-
sidered a large enough number in view
of the competition to come. There is
a scarcity of material, which is es-
sential to the successful development
of a strong team, and the coach and
captain of the cross country squad
are anxious that as many men as pos-
sible should come out and try for the
team whether they have had any ex-
perience or not.
Several veterans of last year's team
are out regularly, and on these men
all hopes of a good showing against
the New Yorkers depend. In the ab-
sence of any new phenoms the old
boys must deliver. Varsity Track Cap-
tain Carroll may be counted on to do
more than his share of the scoring,
and among others of the squad are
several men who are doing excellent
work. Bouma, Denee, Sedwick-who
ran on the All-Fresh team last year--
Fox, the 1916 All-Fresh track cap-
tain, Foster, Fuess are being relied
upon to show real ability this season.
Few Freshmen Have Shown Up.
Amongst the members of the squad
to date are numbered only about half
a baker's dozen of freshmen. The
prospects for a strong tean in the
future depend upon the number of
first year men who report in their
initial year for work and experience,
and that is what is lacking at present.
Evidently-we state it with fear and
trembling-the frosh are too lazy to
get out and work. Or perhaps they
think there is no compensation, in re-
gard to which it may be answered that
if enough yearlings come out and work
a freshman C. C C. team may be
sent to Lansing to run in the cross
country meet there.
Varsity Track Manager Sanders,
and assistants Dudley and Bohiling,
yesterday laid out the course for the
Syracuse run. The course is four
miles in length, two out and two back.
The runners will start at the south
entrance of the Ferry field club house
and will follow the wall to the south-
ern fence, thence across field and back
up to the Varsity tennis courts, and
from there diagonally across field and
out the middle gate onto State street,
where they will turn down and travel
about a mile and a half south to
Schwab's farm. There they will re-
verse gears and trail back over the
same route to the starting point.
YPSI SAME SHOWS NEED
Of STRONGER OFFENSE
Nervousness of Men Also Cause for
Scoreless Tie in Opening
All-Fresh Game
Nervousness and a weak offense are
blamed by Coach McGinnis for the dis-
appointing fray put up by the All-
Fresh against Ypsilanti Saturday.
The yearling defense was all to the
merry, but when it came to carrying
the leather they simply were not there,
Baber being the only back who could
advance the ball with any degree of
regularity. The freshman interference
was far from perfect. The forward
wall, which smeared the line plays of
the Normalites with great gusto, had
the hardest sort of a time making
dents in the opposing bulwark for its
own backs to trickle through.
The youngsters are now hard at
work preparing for their game with
Olivet next Saturday. The Congrega-
tionalists are nearly always repre-
sented by a fairly husky gridiron ag-
gregation and the 1920 squad will have
to put in some hard licks before Sat-
urday if it is to bring a victory back to
Ann Arbor. All the members of the
team came through the Ypsi struggle
in good shape, a few slight bruises be-
ing the only casualties reported.
Scrimmage will be held this afternoon.
Our alarm elocks are good clocks.
