One- Third of Block "71" Seats
for Penn Game Still Unfilled
We are going to reveal something. When you hear about it you
will probably put it in a class with the other seven wonders. Listen!
Students who have not yet turned in their applications for the
Penn game have an opportunity to obtain seats between the 40 and 50
yard lines in the Michigan cheering sections. This section constitut-
es one-third of the block "M". This part of the stand was originally
reserved for senior students, but a majority of them sent in applica-
tions for seats in the south stand with the visitors and alumni. Con-
sequently most of the fourth year men have passed up choice seats
in the center of the field, and will be fortunate if they get anything
better than 30 yard line seats in the south stand.
Michigan's cheering section should be filled up with loyal support-
ers, who are willing to go to the game and shout their lungs out
unaccompanied by mother, father, sister of friend. If you come un-
der this classification, and have not sent in your application, start ne-
gotiations immediately with the athletic association to get one of
these choice seats.

DETROIT ALUMNI PLAN
TO HOLDBIG SMOKER1
Arrange Varied Bill of Entertainment,
Songs, Speeches, and Movies to
Speed Golden Minutes
Every play of the game tomorrow
will be shown on a large score board
at the Cornell-Michigan football
a
smoker which will begin at the Board
of Commerce at Detroit at 2 o'clock.
The University of Michigan club of
Detroit is giving the smoker.
All undergraduates of the University
are invited to attend the affair and
tickets, are now on sale at Huston
Bros. at $1.00 each. Alumni from both
the University and Cornell will be on
hand and a huge crowd seems sure.
A varied bill of entertainment has
been arranged for the occasion and
not a single dull moment will intrude.
There will be plenty of eat and drink,
and speeches, songs, and movies will
be included to speed the golden min-
utes. Old time cheer leaders and a
quartet that knows every Michigan
song as well as the popular hits of the
day will be on hand. The alumni of
Detroit are anxious to swell the at-
tendance by having every student who
can come to Detroit appear at the
Board of Commerce. This is an ex-
ceptional opportunity to become ac-
quainted with the Detroit branch of
the University of Michigan club who
are known all over the country as
live wires.

Woodrow Wilson
Thomas Woodrow Wilson, who Tues-
day was re-elected to the presi-
idency of the United States, was born
of Scotch-Irish parentage in the little
city of Staunton, Va., Dec. 28, 1856,
being the son of Rev. Joseph R. and
Jessie Wilson. His father was a min-
ister in the Methodist church and
Woodrow's early training was acquir-
ed in the clergical and religious at-
mosphere of the ministerial house-
hold.
is early education was left al-
most entirely in the hands of his par-
ents, and for some unaccountable rea-
son, he did not learn his alphabet un-
til he was nine years old. After once
starting to school, however, he proved
so adaptable to the world of books
that he was graduated from the pre-
paratory school at the age of 17.
In the autumn of 1873 he matricu-
lated at Davidson College, a staunch
Methodist institution in the famous
Mecklenburg county in North Carolina.
Ile remained there for only a year, for
he felt himself too limited in the cir-
cumscribed routine of the little school.
Wilson Enters Princeton
Princeton College next claimed him
as a student, and he matriculated
there in 1875, a member of a class of
134.
The autumn of 1879 found him
studying law in the University of Vir-
ginia. In 1882, he started law practice
in Atlanta, but the cases that he might
have won never came his way and he
failed. In 1885 he was married to
Ellen Louise Axson, and in 1886 he
took his Ph. D. degree at Johns Hop-
kins. After serving as professor of
the chair of jurisprudence and politics
at Princeton for 12 years, he became
the president of that institution in
1902.
Made Governor of New Jersey
On Nov. 8, 1910, he was elected to
the governorship of New Jersey by a
plurality of 49,150, and he held the of-
fice until Mar. 1, 1913, when he re-
signed. In the meantime he had been
nominated for the presidency of the
United States by the Democratic con-
vention at Baltimore. On Nov. 4, 1912,
he was elected to the presidency, hav-
ing secured a total of 435 votes in the
electoral college as against 88 for
Roosevelt, the Progressive nominee,
and 8 for Taft, the Republican candi-

Chicago, Nov. 10.-Woodrow Wilson h been re-elected president of
the United States.
By carrying California after a lDng contest the 1emocratic candidate
took enough electoral votes to give him four more years as chief execu-
tive of the country. During Thursdiy the contest remained uncertain
with the constantly varying reports of te doubtful states first threaten-
ing Wilson, then asserting his re-election.
As early as Wednesday afternoon papers beg'an printing extras an-
nouncing Wilson's victory. The New Yrk Evening Mail, a strong Re-
publican paper, declared for Wilson, giving him 269 votes.
In the evening a variety of reporis kept f lie supporters of both can-
didates in flurries of excitement. Ahot idmight, however, the news that
Wi'son was victorious was flashed oer th country.

Prince Henry of Bavaria, has been re-

years old and a batchelor. Prince
Henry's mother left for the battle-

New York, Nov. 9.-The tide for
\Wilson set in so strongly in California
and Minnesota this afternoon that it
appeared probable at 3:45 o'clock that
returns from these two states would
indicate the president's re-election.
The belief that the Wilson drift would
re sult in his choice was based on these
developments:
Hughes must carry both Minnesota
and California to win. Wilson's lead
in California is steadily maintained.
hughes' lead of 811 in Minnesota has
not increased despite addition of a
number of supposedly strong Hughes
precincts relied upon by Republicans
to greatly swell his total.
The precise drift in these states and
in the other smaller doubtful states of
New Hampshire and New Mexico
showed on United Press returns avail-
able at 5 o'clock:
California, 5,705 out of 5,867 pre-
cincts, Wilson leading by 4,559 vot6s ;
to come, 175 precincts.
New Hampshire, 248 out of 294 pre-
cinets, Hughes leading by 279.
Democrats prepared back-up claims
of carrying the state by court action.
Minnesota, 2,884 out of 3,024 pre-
cincts, Hughes leading by 450.
New Mexico, 336 out of 638 precincts,
Hughes leading by 258.

No Cause for Action in Huston Case
The case of Marvin Ickes, John Sher-
man, and Frank Smith, who were al-
leged to have held up John Huston last
Sunday and taken $220 from him, was
quashed in Justice William G. Doty's
court yesterday. Smith, who was ar-
rested Monday morning, had no im-
plication in the affair, which seems to
have been in the nature of a quarrel,
according to a statement made by his
mother yesterday.
