M.. Michigan vs. Michigan State.Results of but one of these gameswill have any hearing on Big Tenstandings. The rest, although pre¬sumably practice games, can becounted on to extend the Conferenceteams to the limit in order to comeout ahead.Ohio At IowaOhio meets the Hawkeyes on thelatter’s field with one of the strong¬est teams of the conference, whileTfgwer sen’s boys do not compareI th the team that in 1925 held Ohio| tie. Coach Ingwersen is havingdl cultv finding men on which hecan relie. The only man who seemssure of his position is Capt. Nelsonat tackle. Wilce’s big problem thislast week has been to find a man«v!io can boot the ball consistently,s he has not forgotten that missedt»al in last year’s Michigan game,which practically kept Ohio from atleast a tie for the Big Ten title.Purdue engages the Crimson witha much stronger team than they canusually boast. They have been dealta severe blow, however by the in¬jury of Captain Wilcox. Guthrie,however, as he has plenty of speed,is being groomed for the vacancy.Illinois meets Butler at home in agame which, with Grange and D’Am-brosio back in lineup, will give BigTen followers a much better idea ofthe Illini strength for this year. Thisis by no means a setup for Zuppke’smen, as the Bulldogs have a veteranteam.Badgers Receive TestWisconsin will see action against aveteran Javhawk team. From reportswe judge that the Badgers will haveto fight every foot of the way to comeout with a victory.Northwestern seems to have pick¬ed a hard nut in their game with Utah,as these boys come from the westwith last year’s Rocky Mountain titleunder their belts. They have wontheir first game decisively and arecomposed mostly of veterans.The Gophers meet Oklahoma A.and M., a strong Missouri Valleyteam, in a game which should giveMinnesota a fairly stiff workout.12 SPECIAL TRAINSTO BE RUN BY I. C.TO ILLINOIS GAMEA proposed schedule of the specialtrams hetween Chicago and Cham¬paign for the Illinois-Chicago game atIllinois on November 12 has been giv¬en ou( by the Illinois Centrail rail¬road.There are to be twelve specialsfrom Chicago, the first to leave Chi¬cago at 6:15 o’clock Saturday morn¬ing and the last at 9:30 o’clock.The first special will leave Cham¬paign at 4:45 o’clock Saturday after¬noon for Chicago. This will be fol¬lowed by twelve other specials withthe last one leaving Champaign at6:15 o’clock Saturday evening.There will also be four trains FromMichigan on October 29. the first toleave Ann Arbor at 7 o’clock Sat¬urday and the last at 8 o’clock.This schedule is only tentative s»-dmay be changed, H. C. Knapp, pas¬senger and ticket agent of the IllinoisCentral, said. DONT Y’ KNOWBy Vic RoterusI was going to conclude yester¬day’s column by observing that theinterest which Doc Spears, w'orthymentor of football at the Universityof Minnesota, had stimulated amonghome state prep athletes for the homestate school had oozed over the bor¬ders of the state—I say that I wasgoing to conclude this, but the print¬er, probably all wrought up over thecause of good literature, cut me short,o o oI was going to point out in evi¬dence of my conclusion the fact thatincluded in the list of the names of {the 120 constituting the freshmansquad at Minnesota were the namesof three all-Michigan high athletes, acouple all-Wisconsin boys, an all- |Texas half-hack from Texas Univer¬sity, a 230 pound lineman from Mas¬sachusetts, and the name of a 200 lb.fullback whom Doc Little, while beam¬ingly watching his work on the L’ni-versity of Wisconsin freshman teamlast season, expected would tear upthe Big Ten under a Cardinal jerseythis season.* * *The latter individual is worthy ofsome mention. While in a high schooluniform at Ironwood, Michigan, thislad, John Cavoise, booted a 55 yarddropkick squarely between the goal¬posts during actual competition. Therereally was no sense in his doing so,I was told, for he could just as wellhave ran the distance; although hehe was somewhat tired from runningup and down the field all afternoon.His last year in high school he spent. absorbing the advantages of a college* education at various schools ranging| from Butler to Dartmouth as ex-I pounded by various college grads who1 still had the interests of the dear oldschool at heart.o o oI have no doubt hut that the prepflash listened attentively to the ad¬vantages offered in the curriculums ofthe various “just the place for you"schools, but as it turned out he en¬rolled at the University of Wisconsinwhere he lived at a prominent alum¬nus home in comfort and without thefinancial worries of room and hoard jto distract him from giving his pro¬found interest to the study of forestry.AJs for fees, clothes and an incidentalthat he believed the transference wascare of by the remuneration of sometwo hundred dollars per month whichhe received for emptying the capitolwastepaper baskets.o o oHis work on the frosh team, or theAll-Americans as they are called, atWisconsin was not in the least dis¬appointing. Not that he scrimmagedagainst the varsity—oh no, he was fartoo valuable to make run the risk ofserious injury. He was used merelyas a handy man, and every now andthen Little would call him over toshow Doyle Harmon how to pass,o o oThis fall we find him on the fresh¬man squad at Minnesota. I am surethat he believed thetransference wasfor the sake of his cultural self; forthe forestry department at the Uni¬versity of Minnesota is, I believe,known throughout the country as be¬ing notoriously better than that of theLJniversity of Wisconsin.BUTLER BULLDOGSTRY ILLINI AGAINHoping to duplicate the 1922 vic¬tory over the LTniversity of Illinois,Butler invades the stadium Saturdayto give Coach Bob Zuppke’s develop¬ing football team its second test. Of\course, the Illini have licked Butlerfourvtiines since that fateful day, butthe memory still inspires the Bull¬dogs'.1 THOUSANDS CHEERASPURDUE TEAMLEAVES FOR EASTPhelanmen Meet HarvardMinus Services OfWilcoxLafayette, Ind., Oct. 6—W i t hcheers of encouragement from a crowdof thousands of students and twons-people ringing in their ears, membersof the Purdue University footballsquad left at noon today for Cam¬bridge, Mass., where on Saturdaythey will meet Harvard in th*> firstbig east-west intersectional contest ofthe year. The team traveled on aspecial Pullman train which also car¬ried Purdue rooters from Lafayette,Chicago and Indianapolis. The trainis scheduled to reach Boston at noontomorrow.Harvard FavoriteThe team felt somewhat lost be¬cause of the knowledge that its cap¬tain. Chester “Cotton” Wilcox wouldhe unable to play Saturday, but itwas in a grim, determined fightingmood when it left the station. Har¬vard became a strong odds-on-favor-ite to defeat the Boilermakers whenthe facts about the splintered hone inWilcox’s foot became known but itis certain that the Crimson will findthe Old Gold and Black eleven any¬thing but apathetic despite the factthat Phealan’s backfield mainspring isamong the missing.Guthrie For WilcoxThe starting lineup that is sched¬uled to open the game in the Har¬vard stadium will contain the name ofAlbert Guthrie, at left halfback, in¬stead of Wilcox. Hutton is sched¬uled to start at left end; Rickman, oleft tackle; Prentice at left guard;Olson at center; Hook, right guard,Galletch, right tackle; Mackey orStillwell, right end; Wilson, quarter-hack: Guthrie, left halfback; Leichtle,right halfback and Koranskv. full¬back.MINNESOTA STARTSBASKETBALL DRILLMinnesota has alreay issued its firstbasketball call, and a total of forty-three candidates have reported torthe initial practice. Under the aus¬pices of the new Gopher coach. Mac¬Millan, former star performer on theNew York Celts, the two score per¬formers went through an easy open¬ing session.With veterans of last season andthe graduates from the freshmanranks Coach MacMillan should havean entire team of seasoned players.The Maroons will be cheered toglorious victory or ignonimous defeattoday by a well organized and welldrilled cheering section. This cheer¬ing section which will do its work-in the form of a cheering “C” is en¬tirely composed of Green Cap candi¬dates it is expected that it will makea very picturesque appearance. Theman in charge of this section, “Bucky”Harris and Bill Weddell, cheer lead¬er, plan to have the whole group inwhite caps and shoulder pieces hutin the event that this paraphenaliadoesn’t shQw up in time for the gamethe freshmen will have their “cute”little green caps ready to wave.Collegiate Cheers |Quite impressive arrangements arebeing made for this hunch of lung-splitters. They will, at first, marchacross the field with the band and doa snake-dance to warm up the crowd. Famous AthletesFrosh At StanfordThree nationally known athleteshave entered Stanford university asfreshmen this fall. They are FidelLaBara, former flyweight boxingchampion; Peter Des Jardines, for¬mer national champion driver, andJohn Doeg, alternate on the Unit¬ed States Davis Cup team. An¬other, Miss Helen Jacobs, was tohave entered this fall but post¬poned her entrance until January,because of an operation for appen¬dicitis.Doeg has been astonishing thesporting world with his remarkablestyle of tennis, and should be avaluable acquisition to Stanford’steam. His ability as a Davis Cupperformer will very likely placeamong leading intercollegiate netstars.BADGERS FACEKANSAS TODAYFive Wisconsin Guards NotIn GameMinus the services of five guards,the University of Wisconsin 1927grid machine will meet Kansas Uni¬versity on the Jay hawkers grid to¬day. The loss of Sykes, Schuette,Von Bremer, Bachus and McKastlewill weaken the Badger line and maycost the Cardinals the tilt. Von Bre¬mer has been bothered with injuriesduring the past week, as has McKas¬tle, the latter being left at home bythe coach. Schuette has his scholas¬tic status to clear up ere he can donthe Cardinal in a game. Sykes waspresented with an opportunity toraise his grade in the medical schooland likewise was left at home.Patched LineThistlethwaite under those condi¬tions will send a patched line againstthe Jays. Wilson will remain at cen¬ter with Conner and Stevens as theguards. Wagner and Binish areslated for the tackles, while the twonew7 finds, Davies and Hotchkiss willalso start. In the backfield Kreskywill get the first call for a halfbackberth, with Rose as his runningmate. Smith who played so wellagainst Cornell College last Satur¬day will be in at fullback with Cap¬tain Crofoot calling the signals.Kansas VeteransThe Kansas coach will have a vet¬eran team to send against the Badg¬ers and promises to start his bestavailable front. Two new finds, Pro-pernick at fullback and Shannon, a(Continued on page 3)Then certain definite seats in theform of an enormous “C” have beenlaid out in the new remodeled northstand in the heart of the student sec¬tion; and after the preliminaries areover they will take these seats and in¬dulge in some hearty cheers.At suitable periods during thegame, Bill Weddell will lead them insome specially arranged yells whichhave been w7orked out exclusively fora special cheering section. One of theyells is a sort of combination between“blackbottom” and “Clap hands: herecomes Charley,” making quite an in-posing cheer.This “C” bids fair to become verysuccessful and though not exactly anew idea meets with the approval ofthe coaches especially Lonnie Stagg,Jr., who thinks that it will be a finething for the school and for the mor¬ale of the team, giving it much neededencouragement and fight.imiiiiiiiiin-'r if*-*^*^ -fry ya •, n iiV vW iauiiGreen Cappers To Form Cheering“C”, Stir Enthusiasm At Games STAGG, PAGE HAVE TEAMS PRIMED;MAROONS NOT FAYORITES DESPITEDISTINCT ADVANTAGE IN WEIGHTMaroons Have Won 15 of16 Games PlayedWith IndianaWith fifteen victories out of sixteengames played with Indiana.

It is perhapsthe first play in many seasons thatcan claim comparison with the workof George Bernard Shaw at his best.“The heroine, wife of Fabius. as¬serts the idea laid down in ‘Man andSuperman’—that in courtship womanis naturally the aggressor—on directand uncompromising lines. One ofthe most emphatic charms of theperformance is the manner in whichit turns a situation which threatensto be philosophically sound into alaughing episode.“There is something of a reminderof ‘Hamlet’ in a dress suit, only theprocess is reversed, as the wearersof the ancient garb in burnishedsplendor express themselves in thelatest and most unrestrained liber¬alities of vernacular.“The play is a romping series ofanachronisms, resting its claim to con¬sideration squarely on the fact thatlove and humanity have been im- jmutably the same throughout the cen- !turies.“The auditor may take his choice |and regard the play either as a de¬licious though perhaps indelicate de¬lineation of feminine escapade, or asa collossal satire on the hollow yettprrible ambitions that depend on |war.”NEW WOMEN’S DORMFORMALLY OPENEDf FBlackstone Hall, recently completeddormitory for University women at5/4$ Blackstone Avenue was inform- Iall\r opened last night between 8 and11 o’clock.

One Sophomore Honor Society.PATERNALLY SPEAKINGLAST year The Daily Maroon was bitterly opposed to the greatSophomore Honor Societies. It denounced them as cesspoolsof political corrpution. They were said to be honor societies inname only who did nothing but elect new members and that ina most weird manner. This year the Daily Maroon admits all:this but instead of frowning and taking them seriously merely!laughs cynically in its senior way and says “What of it?”To square away and remind people who have forgotten thatthere are Sophomore Honorary Societies let it be known that thereare two, Score Club and Skull and Crescent* the first supposedlyrepresenting the smooth boys of the campus, and the latter themore brawny athletes. Official functions are the dance in thefall and the election of new members in the spring. The first ofthese is a fabulous money maker and inebriated seniors have beenknown to confess that they paid their entire first year out of the A ■ftetf aadpleeuur-Arble addition toOttca-go select lafehour attraction- inthe spirit of thejmasrl supper club.Srtie r'tdUfifnetitttncZ dancing to ih*marl enchantingmusic. —ike -tinkling t-unetsoothing SyncoiodLtioTVtperfect Z-kythTnofArt Copeand hir„.Soldotv jZtlTTorchestra*Golden Lily-"Jouffi Jicte>lr J&ert C<zf& "309 £i SczrftelcCdt ihe\C"Subscribe!

The game comes in getting three men in and thesuccessful man who does so need never partake in campus activ-|ities again but merely sit in front of the fire and dw’ell on the jdays when he saved Upsilon Upsilon by getting his men into dearold Score Club. They have a glorious time and no harm is done.And so The Daily Maroon no longer razzes them but refusesto take them seriously.SENTIMENT AND FOOTBALLTS Chicago fighting against sentimental odds today?Has her defeat at the hands of Oklahoma tended to dampenher spirits or will it stigmatise her esprit d-corps?Will Indiana’s victory over the fighting Kentuckians 21 to jnothing tend to give the Hoosiers a impregnable and confidentstrength, or will it put them off-guard?Chicago seems to work better with defeat at her back. Threeyears ago we were taken into camp by a gang of bull-dog Mis¬sourians in the initial game of the year. That was the first andlast game wre lost that year.Today’s game will be a sentimental encounter from a numberof standpoints. Pat Page, who coaches the Hoosiers, was not solong ago on the atheltic staff of our own university. Since thatday he has become a mentor in the football world. It is onlynatural that he would like to defeat Chicago and prove thesuzerainity of the “new” over the “old.” Fritz Crisler says thatIndiana will be playing “over their heads” today. He believes thatthe team has caught the Page spirit. When Pat sends his boysout on the Jimmy Twohigs greensward it will be a field that is anold stamping ground for him. He knows Jimmy, he knows Stagg,in fact he probably is familiar with every blade of grass in thegridiron.On the other hand the Maroons will probably be filled withthe sentimental desire for victory that stirs the Old Man’s heart.If The Daily Maroon’s interpretation of Chicago’s traditionalspirit and sentiment is correct, our team shall probably be fortifiedby the memory of the Oklahoma hey-day.Or does sentiment have anything to do with the size of thecount on the Chicago scoreboard when the final gun flushes thewaterclosets in Hitchcock hall.

In hisdedicatory address to the universitystudent body, Dr. Meikeljohn, Doctorof Philosophy at the Universityof Chicago and one of the greatestin the field of modern philosophers,said, “This ot me is an occasion likea birthday. Something human is nowcoming into existence. We are allagreed there shall be no celebration,no gifts. This morning we have thegift of existence. A few moments agowe were not, now we are.” Dr. Glenn Frank president of the University ofWisconsin said in addressing the stu¬dents:“This is the natural plan of educa¬tion. It is as old as the human mind.The methods of study and the plansof the experimental college are atleast as old as Socrates.” Dr. Meikel¬john, who is largely responsible forthis educational undertaking is and ac¬tive Professor of Philosophy here atthe university and has done much toinstill prestige in the university.

Chicago’s got goodplays, a sound defense, and a strongbackfield. We have a few green menthis year, but they’re ready to fightevery minute they are in the game.Naturally, we expect a hard fight fromIndiana. They have a clever backfieldand a good line, and I expect it to beone of the hardest battles yet foughton Stagg Field. All I tan say atthis moment to Maroon fans and sup¬porters is that our bunch is goinginto this game with the same deter¬mination and spirit that marked theplay of that great 1921 Chicago teamwhich held Illinois to a 21-21 tie.”Squad KeyedCaptainRousu’s statement threwmuch light or the apparent state ofmind his squad is in. The footballexperts have been scoffing serious¬ly the last few days whether Chicagowould win a conference game at allthis year. The Maroons have saidlittle in reference to those statements,but the manner in which they wentabout their workouts this week provedthat they differ a great deal with theexperts. They feel, and they are notslow in expressing their opinions,that the newspaper writers have beenunderestimating the Midway contin¬gent all season and are in for a bigsurprise this afternon.

The Jays have named the dayas “Completion Day” for it will bethe grand dedication of the com¬pleted 36,000 capacity stadium for thestate of Kansas. Mass meetings wereheld by the followers of both teams,the Badger alumni rallying in largenumbers in Kansas City.The complete Badger roster forthe trip was as follows: Crofoot,Hayes, Rose, Kvr, Weigent, Cuisin-er, Taylor, Smith, Shaw, Kresky,Rebholz, Welch, Mohardt, Bur-bidge, Wilson, Binish, Conner, Parks,Gottstein, Davies, Zeise, Conry, VonBremer, Wagner, Ketelaar.

Manager Demmon,Trainer Joe Steinauer and equipmentman Bartz completed the party.Crofoot At QuarterThe probable lineups are as fol¬lows: fans, Indiana’s line is considerablyoutweighed by their opponent’s. Re¬ports from the Crimson camp earlierin the week stated that Coach Pagewas bringing up a forward wall whichmatched Chicago’s man for man, butthose statements evidently were er¬roneous, since the Maroon line out¬weighs its opponent’s twelve pounds| to a man.' Even in the backfield, the; Bloomington squad concedes weight,| hut the difference here is slight. Ap-I parently, Chicago’s superiority in thet line would materially affect prospects! of the game, but the Maroon coachesj state that Indiana’s line gave weightaway to Kentucky last Saturday andstill beat them handily. Indiana’sline is light for a conference team,Lbut itis fast and plays an intelligentgame of football, so that any advan-j tage Chicago can claim in that re¬spect is slight indeed.Coaches SilentThe coaches of both teams char¬acteristically declined to committhemselves on the outcome of thegame, reserving their opinions to asingle statement that the game willbe hard-fought and well played.Captain Ken Rouse made a lastminute statement which will proveencouraging to Maroon followers. numerous defeats.Must WinVictory today is demanded at all costs.Fair play and clean sportsmanship hasalways been Chicago’s slogan and willremain so, but Midwayites are clamor¬ing for a victory, and whether the ex¬perts claim Indiana will win by a smallscore or a large one, they believe that theMaroon squad will finally bring to anend the sucessive gridiron losses thatChicago lias suffered in the last two sea¬sons.

Practically every manon the Maroon squad excepting Rayssonwho was hurt last week, has recuperatedfrom injuries wrought in practice ses¬sions and in the Oklahoma tilt. CoachStagg will have plenty of reserves onhand, as will Coach Page.Mendellhall to KickMendenhall will do the major shareof the kicking for Chicago, while Ben¬nett, a triple threat man, will opposehim. While the present backfield ismost favored by the “old man”, Libby,Burgess, and Bluhm are being held inreadiness. This trio is practically theequal of any that Coach Stagg can mus¬ter and the individual attention whichthey'received from the coaching staff tin'sweek indicates that they wall see plentyof service in today’s struggle.Wisconsin KansasHotchkiss L E ShenkWagner LT OlsonStevens LG MyersWilson C BurtonConner RG KullmanBinish RT CramerDavies RE HauserCrofoot, capt.
