nn that occasion was hurried by the approaching' Wolverine would be blockers Hewitt Miller had the honor of making the longest run of the game and one that came very near beat ing Michigan Michigan found for the first time this season a team on which she run iha nrin long time to become convinced of this rart inrt tempts to gain' ground on fake kicks late in the game This was one aort of de fense in which the Aggies were almost perfect and they knocked the spots out of anybody who tried to turn their flanks Slowness in getting the plays off hurt Michigan somewhat There were a lot of impromptu conventions end' conferences be fore the signals were given that did not seem necessary hut which may have been dtp to tho fact that a green Quarterback was in the game a good part of the time By contrast Miller seemed tn drive his men with much more smooth ness and speed The game attracted a crowd estimated at from 13000 to 15000 persons and there as some great rooting Haff the Mich igan yellmaster was on hand to cnax the shouts from the throats of a big Wolverine cheering section while across the field cheer leaders all dolled up In white kept the shouters busy Splendid Spirit Shown Throughout the Afternoon a splendid sportsmanlike atmosphere was in 'vidence Michigan veiled generously for A before the battle began and was answered In kind Several times when a wounded Maize and Blue battler was being repalied the Aggies cheered him and when Bloke Miller bad to have time called the Michi gan stands yplled Just as lustily for him ns though he had been one Chlr wri men Instead of a follow whoe soul ambi tion it was to make them all possible trou ble in such a riose game as tills It Is in evitable that there should be a difference of opinion ns to the merits of the teams Many A rooters will be inclined to maintain that Michigan had ail the huk while some of the Maize and Blue folks will Insist that the score should have beer larger Thn fact remains that Michigan made three made them honestly aid fairly by a combination of hard work and con sumate while A failed tn score Therefore Michigan certainly was thr points to the better In gameness fighting spirit and all thnt goes to make up a fin ished football team of the highest eailber thero was little to choose between them But Michigan had Just a trifle more finesse an In the super reLnementa of thegame that brought her a well de servrd verdict A tie score would have been lent than the Wolverine deserved success by a margin would have teen a little more Should Be Congratulated Both shies are to be congratulated upon the same A can find cnnsolntlon In the fact that it tock every bit of football Michigan had to beat her while Michigan has every right to be proud of the fact rxAai uniMfuiui lllflt

taken out on account of their injuries men were just as well conditioned as the enemy but were unlucky 1n getting bumps that a trainer is powerless to guard against Thu game was not free from tac

hundred plays to select from the Maize and Blue repeatedly ignored good openings for some of Yosts pet conceits In the second half Mich igan probably could have scored a touchdown it her field generals had been willing to make a forward pass occasionally At least A defense seemed to be made for the other open plays but it was never put to the test Bad judgment was used in the third quarter when Michigan got the ball inside her 15 yard line Instead of calling on Maul bet sell and taking advantage of the German ability to come through in the pinch the Wolver ine quarter called upon Boehm for a linebuck and thus practically wasted a down the play being di rected against the strong Aggie left guard who had repeatedly stood the test As a result of this mistake the Maize and Blue final ly

Syracuse Is indisputably strong this season Het showing against Princeton while It did not show in tho scoring was incontro vertible In Its proof that the Orangemen will present a tremen dous front to men when the annual battle between the two comes on next Saturday Last year Yost's rejuvenated Wolverine eleven played havoc with the men from the Salt City The 43 to 7 score which was run up on erry field November 1 was just about the most decisive thing In the line of trouncing football elevens which has been seen in Ann Arbor The seven points garnered bv the visitors that afternoon was as near to an accident as possible a fumble near the goal line In the last few minutes of play giving the Orangemen their chance to avert a positive whitewash Backfield Must Show Goods It was Michigan's wonderful line and Jimmy Craig that won that game Michigan a wonder ful line this year nor has she Jimmy Craig But there are sev eral cogs In this 1914 combination which very nearly fill the place of those two winning elements of last vear There is a backfield which comes very near to doing greater things than were accomplished by the All American Craig last yearAnd It has a line which possesses an ability to scrap every minute of Svracuse's chief strength lies in her' ground gaining machine That machine ran up a total of over 200 vards against Princeton last week and the Tigers did just about half that much When they meet the Men of Yost the Syracuse players will be operating on their own gridiron and against a team which has journeyed far to meet them They are certain to psit up a fight 1 which is apt to prove too much for I the Wolverine Wor Yost Is going I to hold his men tn next Saturday He cannot afford to let them go too far An injury at that stage of the i season would be
