LIT TIE STANDS
Anvil Pounders and Yearlings Battle
Whole Game and Two Extra
Periods
7 TO 7 IS SCORE THIS TIME
Hopes of breaking the deadlock be-
tween the soph engineers and the
fresh lits, who had tied in two games
and an extra ten-minute period of play
were shattered again yesterday after-
noon when theyearlings and anvil
pounders battleds through a regular
four-quarter game to a 7-7 tie. The
worn-out sport writer prayed for some-
thing to happen when the two teams
agreed to continue play for another
ten-minute period. Ten minutes were
not enough. Another five-minute scrap
was arranged, and played at once. The
score still is a tie.
The engineers' score came in the
second quarter, when Garrett plowed
through a temporarily disorganized
freshman team and crossed the line.
Middleditch kicked goal.
In the post-schedule ten-minute
period, Biggers of the anvil pounders
threatened to end the agony by run-
ning half the length of the field, only
to have his teammates pushed back
on the succeeding plays.
Funk took much of the hard work
of the extra periods. Haigh and Mid-
dleditch nearly always found the
holes. Nyman, engineer manager,
played his usual steady game. Kane
of the yearlings had his speed and
dodging ability, but was slowed down
by the fact that the enemy concen-
trated on him in the first part of the
game.
Biggers waj nimble on end runs for
the anvil pounders, and Edwards, end
man for the lits, was just as nimble
in stopping those same and runs. Kerr
and Gille'spie also were handy men at
defense.
The lineup follows:
Soph engineers-Mooney, i.e.; Lewis,
1.t.; Nyman and Sommers, l.g.; Ren-
wis and Martins, c.; Pettyjohn, r.g.;
Cooper and Paden, r.t.; Biggers, r.e.;
Storrer, q.; Haigh, I.h.; Middleditch,
r.h.; Garrett, f.b.
Fresh lits-Edwards, I.e.; Gillespie,
1.t.; Campbell, l.g.; Bornstein, c.;
Schmok, r.g.; Fralick, r.t.; Zapp, r.e.;
Kerr, q.; Kane, I.h.; Merrifield and
Funk, r.h.; Anderson, f.b.
The tie will be played off at 3:30
o'clock, Monday afternoon.

BOAROING HOUSE MEN
WILL PLA1YBASKETBALL
League of Men from Each House Soon
Will Start Practice; All
May Enter
t ne intramural department is going
to give the boarding house man ac
chance to play basketball this year.
Due to the fact that a great deal of
interest is being shown in the indoor
sport every boarding house will be
given an opportunity to enter a team
in the league to be started in the near
future.
A meeting to arrange a schedule
and other details will be held soon and
each house desiring to enter the league
may elect a manager who will re-
port at this meeting to assist in making
plans. Only one team from each house,
will be permitted to enter the race.
A practice schedule will be announced
one week before the season opens.
Every student who is interested will
be given an opportunity to sign up on
Monday. After signing his own name,
the entry will then write down the
name of the man from his boarding
house whom he would like to see in
the position of manager for his house.
From this list each manager will be
chosen. Out of about 30 houses a good
number of entries should be secured.
Experience or knowledge of the game
are no issue in this league. Any stu-
dent who wants to play is urged to
enter. Further announcement will be
made.
PLANS COMPLETE FOR RANGE
Rifle Team Soon Will Shoot In Wa-
terman Gymnasium
Plans for the rifle range in the un-
finished pool room in the basement of'
Waterman gymnasium are now com-
plete. There will be ten or 12 shoot-
ing points and the same number of
targets. The construction will have to
be deferred for a while until the con-
tractors have completed the installa-
tion of a heating system in the part of
the building to be used for the range.
As soon as the range is ready for
use the Rifle club will institute a
series of individual matches among its
members. Prof. C. E. Wilson, who is
in charge of team practice, will of-
ficiate and will keep his eye peeled
for individual stars. Judging from the
attendance at the first meeting of the
Rifle club, a large number of men will
answer the call for candidates in this
tournament. Prizes will be awarded
to the winners.
The first contest in the National
Rifle association's tournament will not
take place until the last week in Jan-
uary. The Wolverines will compete in
Class "A" this year and among other
opponents will have M. A. C.

High Vlileage Will Not Prevent
1 gasket ball; Cite M. A.C. Schedule

In the opinions on Varsity basket-
ball printed so far tv The Daily, the
chief, and in fact il _. only, objection
has been the difficulty of securing
games. The fact that Michigan's stat-!
us in the athletic world is unsettled
at the present time has been held up
as a reason why a Wolverine -basket-
ball schedule could not be filled. It
has been said that the eastern teams
are too far away and that the western
teams that were eligible were not in
Michigan's class.
In reference to the first statement,
the western conference basketball
league may be taken as an example.
The Ohio State team, when it meets
Minnesota at Minneapolis, travels ap-
proxmately 625 miles. It goes 300
miles to play Chicago and 500 to en-
gage Iowa on the Hawkeyes' court.
Michigan would have to journey 600
miles to play Nebraska, 450 to meet
Vanderbilt, 400 to' battle Pennsylvania,
and about 300 to take on Cornell at
Ithaca. It would seem from this that
the most far-flung schedule the Wol-
verines might undertake would com-
pare favorably with the one Ohio State
plays every year.
And there would undoubtedly be
good competition much closer than
that al0'eady indicated. The state bask-
etball championship in Michigan is
fought out every year by three teams,
M. A. C., the Detroit "Y", and Hope
College. It should not be a hard mat-
ter to get a place on the schedule of
any of these teams. Then there are
the strong Ohio and Indiana teams,
Oberlin, Reserve, Case, Marietta, Wa-
bash, Earlham, and De Pauw, to say
nothing of Michigan's ancient rival,
Notre Dame.
In order to show that it is possible
for a non-conference team in the west,
to fill a basketball schedule, M. A. C.'s
1917 card is given below:

GET HS, BASKETBALL PLAY?
Prep School Teams May Meet in Wa-
terman Gym for Title
Litramural Director Rowe stated
yesterday that a tournament to decide
the state high school basketball title
will be held in Waterman gymnasium
about the last Thursday, Friday, and
Saturday in February, or on those
three days during the first week of
March. The tourney will be in the
nature of an interscholastic meet such
as the one held for track artists every
spring, with the exception that the
contests for the basketball title will be
limited to high schools within the
boundaries of the commonwealth.
No definite plans have been formu-
lated as yet, but action will probably
be taken at the next meeting of the
board of control. Arrangements will
depend upon that action, but a ma-
jority of the members of the board
have expressed themselves as favor-
ing the project, so that tentative plan-
ning may be engaged in.

DIRECTOR BARTELME
RETURNS FROM EAST
Refuses to Discuss Schedule for Next
Year: May Elect Captain
in Few tlays
Director of outdoor athletics Bartel-
me returned from the east yesterday
but refused to discuss anytlhing re-
lating to the 1917 football schedule.
Mr. Bartelme's extended stay in the
east gave rise to much speculation re-
garding the contests to be placed on
the Wolverine chart. Rumor will still
be in full sway for a while until the
Athletic association definitely ar -
nounces the schedule of g'anes.
It is almost certain that nothing will
be done to assuage the curiosity of the
campus until after the next meeting
of the board in control of athletics
which comes next Saturday. Mean-
while divers opinions will be aired
by the campus amateur authorities.
Probably Michigan will have her
new football captain within the en-
suing week. Now that Peach is able
to navigate and Mr. Bartelme has re-
turned, the Varsity electoral college
may gather and vote the job on some-
body. And again while they are wait-
ing for the voice of the team to be
heard the university wise-acres will
hold council and decide it all before-
hand. They will probably have until
the early part of the week before they
will get the chance to say, "I told you
so!"
Judge Believes Golf Is Recreation
Golf, according to a decision by
Judge Jesse A. Baldwin of the Chicago
circuit court, is a "beneficial recrea-
tion" rather than an "amusement."
