THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE , MICHIGAN'S NEXT OPPENEN ST LETS MEN OFF WITH .IGHT WORK ON FIELD tius Has "Dummy" Scrimmages for Line Men; Skinner Hurts Arm TEMPORARYTENNIS ISIXTY FRESH TO HOLD FIRST SCRIMMAGE TOoAY Coach McGinnis to Give Every Man Captain Maulbetsch and his football men escaped an actual bonifide scrim- mage yesterday afternoon, but that was about all that they did escape in preparing for the Case game. Line Coach Pontius staged another one of his "dummy scrimmages" for the benefit of the candidates seeking positions on the forward wall, while Coach Yost kept the rest of the men charging up and down the field under kicks. The linemen also shared in this last mentioned drill and every- one seemed ready to call it a full day's work when the, coach sounded "taps." Clarence Skinner suffered an injury to his arm in the early part of the aft- ernoon and will probably be out of the game for some time. Trainer Tuthill was not certain as to the exact nature of the injury and could not tell ex- actly how long Skinner would be on the hospital list. Tuthill stated that Weimann would be in shape to play tomorrow against Case, although Boyd will not be in con- dition to get into the game. The coach spent considerable time in 'running the men down the field under kicks. Willard practiced kicking-off and the line charged down under the ball. This same formula was followed with punts and some of the men almost covered enough distance to qualify for "Steve" Farrell's cross country squad. The coaches spend considerable time in trying to correct the faults that they had detected in yesterday's game against Marietta. ATHLETIC MEN ASK STUDENTS TO PROCURE BOOKS AT ONCE "Howdy" Sherwood, Captain-Elec Unable to Be Back Because of Illness. FALL TOURNEY BEGINS SOON John Codd, '17, has been appointe acting captain of the Michigan Varsit tennis team in place of "Howdy Sherwood, captain-elect. Sherwood has written the Michiga authorities stating that ill-health wi prevent him from returning to An Arbor and Codd has been selected t fill this vacancy until further actio is taken. Although Codd did not wi an "M" last year, he is the senio t ad ty n ll n o n in r member of the tennis squad and since there are no "M" men in college, he has received the position temporarily. If Sherwood does not return to Mich- igan next semester, it is probable that the tennis squad will elect another captain to replace "Howdy" and the honor seemingly will be bestowed upon an athlete who has yet to win his first "M." Captain Crawford, Mack and Switzer graduated last June, leaving a big handicap for the tennis men to face, and now that Sherwood reports that he will be unable to come back, it means that Michigan's Varsity tennis squad is confronted by a big problem. Acting Captain Codd will assume the duties of the office and begin working upon the schedule at once. The annual fall tournament which was won by Ralph Oster last year, will probably begin next week. Paul Steketee has been selected as chair- man of the fall event and definite plans will be laid immediately. Further announcement concerning the plans of this tournament will be made in the Michigan Daily. o tr li a s g o fe c Coach McGinnis will give his squad f some sixty freshmen their first in- roduction to college football when he ines them up against each other this fternoon in scrimmage. Each man out will have a chance to [how what he possesses in the way of ridiron ability, 4s it is the intention f the coach to use every one for a ew moments at least. "Mac's" squad is still unwieldly be- ause of the number of new men who Chance To Get Into the Fight. have been turning out daily. No cut will probably be made until Just be- fore the Ypsilanti contest. The matter of suits is proving a dif- ficult one to solve. Yesterday fully a dozen men could not be equipped be-' cause of lack of togs, and it is ex- pected that this situation cannot be re- lieved until the weeding process be- gins., Bond, formerly of the University of Pittsburg team, was out yesterday in suit with the other men. Another man who seems to have shown some stuff to date is Kerr, former quarter on the Central high school team of Duluth. We guarantee personally all our fountain pens. Complete stock of L. E.

During the last two days the booklets have been handed to claim- ants at a rate of about one every ten minutes during the first part of the time and gradually getting slower. According to the records at the present time, about 5,000 books as a total number passed out have been tallied. This is a large number, but there are certainly more to be called for. With the Case game tomorrow the athletic office will be rather busy and it would be appreciated if those who have not yet procured their books would do so today at the earliest op- portunity. RED SOX FAVORITES IN WORLD'S SERIES BETTING New York, Oct. 5.-The Red Sox are still heavy favorites in betting on the outcome of the world's series. Back- ers of the Dodgers were reluctant to place their money at the 5 to 3 and even smaller odds offered and are holding out for 2 to 1. Many bets are being made at 10 to 9 that Boston will take the first game. Hamilton Business College State and William Sts. -ddd Absence of Yells i NarkedatGame There was a marked absence of cheering during Wednesday's game with Marietta college. Perhaps this is partly due to the fact that it was the first game of the season, and probably 70 per cent due to the fact that there was no cheer leader on hand to stir up the pep. Even so, it seemed strange to hear for the most part only hand- clapping on a field and at a time when heretofore thunderous "Yeas," steam- rolling locomotives and titanic sirens shook every window pane in Ann Ar- bor. When Case comes round to take her annual licking the band and the cheer leaders will all be on hand, and all that will be lacking then to make the team tramp on the Scientific boys will be the regular old north stand gang.

With the price of beef on the hoof soaring around eight cents per pound, the Maize and Blue squad would have netted the neat sum of $359.04 if sold in the open market. The smiling coach, during the prog- ress of the afternoon's festivities, used 677 pounds of ends, 940 pounds of tackles, 1,005 pounds of guards, 361 pounds of centers, 299 pounds of quar- terbacks, 807 pounds of halfback and 359 pounds of fullbacks. The team that took the field at the first'kickoff was the heaviest that has represented Michigan since the cham- pionship aggregation led by "Bub- bles" Paterson in 1913. It averaged 182 pounds and totalled up to five notches more than a ton. The line averaged 1911-2 pounds and the back- field 166 pounds. This eleven out- weighs the one that faced Cornell last fall by 48 pounds, the average top- ping last year's by- 4 pounds. Those who have heralded the virtues of the rangy type of lineman will be inter- ested to know that the average weight of this year's line is five pounds higher than that of last season's luck- I over 1911 I mmmmm - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - i The heaviest member of the squad is, of course, "Fritz" Rehor, the port- ly lineman. He tips the beam at nine pounds more than an eighth of a ton. His nearest rival is Godsell, the sopho- more guard, who cashes in at 212 pounds. Other heavyweights are Dunn, 209; Skinner, 203, and Willard, 202. The lightest man on the squad is Zeiger, second string signal screech- er, who agitates the beam slightly at 144 pounds. His nearest rivals for the featherweight honors are "Red" Johnson at 147 and "Cliff" Sparks at 155. The fourth lightest member of the squad is a certain well-known resident of the fair city of Ann Ar- bor, John F. Maulbetsch by name. The most ponderous aggregation that Yost could place in the field would average 196 pounds and would line up as follows: Whalen and Peach, ends; Skinner and Dunn, tackles; Rehor and Goodsell, guards; "Willard, center; Sharpe, quarter; McCallum and Bath- rick, halves, and Smith, fullback. His lightest team would average 162 pounds and would be composed of these men: Dunne and Martens, ends; McLachlan and Bathrick, tackles; Biber and Howe, guards; Niemann, center; Zeiger, quarter; Johnson and Maulbetsch, halves, and Brazell, full- r X 1111111!1!1111fIlltll 111111 1111111111111111111 1 11 1 1 111 11 111 iii 1111111 !111111 1;111111 i 1 111 1111111111111111111! iii 1111 11111111111 111 t11 l tll l iIIi rC b IDb /1W Ifb:Csto V0an oceItsCItI ifo the iew t cboot War n4 In abbtfton to regutar service a [a carteIt offers luncheons cspeclatlt repareb for two, anb caretu lxv chosen Ninners tor fraternity or sorority g~roups; CLe 1Delta 'Cafe promisesz to serve you well anO promptly 'fi LU 111<1Cafe state an I1achara w Wf o lw AIPW YWWV W " W II
