THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE T /I STARTS SECRET PRACTIC -, I I MAULIE AND WEIMIN SHOW FORM IN BOOTING 'GOALS FROMPLACEMENT Siarpe Not Expected to Start Against A,,ggies; Raymond Will Play Right Half SPARKS AND DUNNE WILL PUNTI 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. PACKARD ACADEMY Dancing classes every Monday and Thursday evening at 7:00 o'clock.

Rooters Coming. 0.0CM0C1BOYS GET READ FOR ORANG[ Good Showing in Opening Meet De- pends on Ability of Veterans; Few Freshmen Out 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. Chapman, Jeweler, 113 South Main street. tues-sod Call 600 for expert typewriting.
