The same team that competed in the intercollegiate hill and dale race at New Haven last Several weeks ago word was receiv- ed from the coast that Leland Stan- ford University was making efforts to get a rugby team composed of South African students from the University of Michigan to come and play them during the Christmas vacation. Noth- ing definite could be learned about the matter, however. Yesterday the South African stu- dents petitioned the senate council for permission to make the trip. At a special meeting of the council called for the purpose of deciding the ques- tion, the South Africans were grant- ed the petition with the understand- ing that the team does not officially represent the University. There are altogether 24 South Afric- ans in the University. A rugby team consists of 15 men and nine of the Michigan students have played to- gether before. The prospective team has been practicing steadily for the past few weeks, hoping to receive the necessary authority. The game with the Californians wilk be a big attrac- tion, since both teams understand the game thoroughly. Rugby, as it is play- ed in South Africa, is the favorite fall pastime of the coast. Those in charge at Ann Arbor re- fuse sto give out aniy positive state- ments saying that complete plans have not been formulated yet. The final word must come from Leland Stan- ford and it is expected here some time this week. From the present indica- tions, however, it is possible that the. South Africans will leave for the coast Dec. 18. Saturday will enter the run. The race will be a three and one- half mile jaunt around the regulai course, starting at 12 o'clock. This should be rather easy for the Wolver- ine harriers who contested six miles last Saturday, and since the ground v5 comparatively level they will not have to call on the endurance re- quired in the intercollegiate chase. Chances for a Michigan win are ex- ceedingly good. The team will go against about the same class of run- ners encountered in the state meet at Lansing, which the Maize and Blue captured so handily. It goes without saying that Eddie Carroll should take individual honors in view of his past record, and with the other members of the team running up to the form they have set in previous meets dur- ing the season they should add the third leg to the cup offered for the team winning the meet three years. In case Michigan wins today it will be the third consecutive victory in the Thanksgiving day meet. It is very probable that the same teams, or most of them, which ran in the state meet, will be entered in this race, plus the Detroit Y. M. C. A., under whose auspices the run is held, with possibly the Toledo Y and the Detroit Athletic club sending a squad over the route. Today's meet winds up the 1916 cross country season. Out of three meets in which the Wolverines have competed this fall, they have been de- feated in one dual clash with Tom Keene's Orangemen from Syracuse; they have won the state meet, and last Saturday they placed ninth in the in- tercollegiate race on the Yale course. If first honors are brought back to Ann Arbor today, that will make twe victories, another creditable showing against the fastest field the east can put out, and only one defeat, out of four possible chances. This is rather a successful season on that record. For individual honors, Eddie Car- roll has taken the University cham- pionship race, placed first in the Syra- cuse meet, seized the state champion- ship title, placed second in the inter- collegiate- run under circumstances which made that record almost equiv- alent to a win, and now finally has the chance to again break the tape ahead of the field. In case he lives up to expectations he will come as near a perfect record as could rea- sonably be expected of any one man. BOXING. Private lessons. Work will start im- mediately.

THREE CHAMPIONSHIPS MAY BE SETTLED TODAY Brown-Colgate, Nebraska-Notre Dame, and Kansas-Missouri Matches Decide Title Three games that may contribute something to untangling the cham- pionship muddle in east and middle west will be played this afternoon when Brown meets Colgate at Provi- dence, Nebraska tackles Notre Dame at Lincoln, and Kansas and Missouri hook up at Columbia. The first of these games cannot es- tablish either of the contestants as champions of the east, but it may elim- inate one of them. If Brown wins, no change in the status of the east's lead- ing teams will occur, as Colgate has already been defeated by Yale. But if the Brunonians lose, their claim to the title will be swept away and Pitts- burg and the Army will remain'alone at the top of the heap. In the west, where the title is even more uncertain than in the east, the defeat of Notre Dame by Nebraska will eliminate the Catholics from fur- ther consideration. Nebraska cannot be counted in, as the Cornhuskers have lost to Kansas. The battle at Columbia between Kansas and Mis- souri will mean the elimination of one of these undefeated teams. This will leave Ohio State, Michigan, and either Kansas or Missouri to argue about the title. If Notre Dame suc- ceeds in downing Nebraska, the Cath-I olics will, of course, also have to be considered. FIVE DAYS UNTIL MICHIGANENSIAN SUBSCRIPTION CAMPAIGN.

Such a hazardous trail, they claim, was not a true test of a runner's ability. They contend that a path that carries run- ners up a hill nearly 500 feet above the level of the street and then forces them to pick their way down is-.some- thing which does not indicate speed nor stamina. Such a tricky course as that over which Cornell won the team and Johnny Overton of Yale the in- dividual honors was too great a handi- cap for the majority of the athletes. One of the most prominent coaches said the event was poorly handled.- Several of the colleges did not re-a ceive a topographical map of the, course, and others received it only a, week before the event. The football game, coaches claim, took all the in- terest away, and they say probably in the future the cross country event will be held at some other place. CAPTAINCY STILL UNFILLED "1P" Men Await Return of Director Bartelme, Now in East Michigan's choice of captain for the coming season will be made later than any election for the past several years. No definite time for the election of the man to the highest position that the "M" men can give to any man on the team has been made. Last week a new leader was not chosen because of the condition of right end Peach. Now that this husky is able to be around again, Mr. Bartel- me has gone east to arrange several (Continued on Page Four.) i S STUDENTS AT' PENNSYLVANIA CAPTURE TICKET SCALPERS Philadelphia, Nov. 29.-The U.: of P. students, incensed because the ticket scalpers bought up tickets for the annual Penn-Cornell Thanksgiv- ing day football game, made prisoners of a dozen of the speculators and took the tickets away from them. Many of the scalpers resisted, show- ing fight. All of them were overcome and marched into the athletic associa- tion building, Thirty-third street, above Spruce, where they were stripped of their clothes and a thor- ough search was made for the prec- ious pasteboards. Cash value was paid the scalpers in every instance. The 200 students were those who were frozen out when 2,000 tickets were sold. When the stock was ex- hausted the disgruntled students were irritated at the sight of scalpers brazenly offering to sell tickets in front of the building and about thej dormitories. For several hours they endured it, but at last their patience came to an end.
