success of last experi ment in organizing soccer foot ball in the grade schools of De troit has resulted in a larger num ber of boys participating in tlp games this year Last season there were 80 schools playing in 10 leagues but so great has been the number of schools desirous of getting into the games this year that the number of teams has into been wits due tlte game by most of tlio boys and Hie fact that many of the school boys are interested spectators at Hie senior league games The greatest pioolcni in the school games this season has been to find sufficient coaches and ref erees for the games tlio majority of which are played on week day aft ernoons The captains have been asked to tty to arrange their games tor early Saturday afternoon so that they could have cltlclenl ref

Wendell was hammering away at all lines in the Crimson backfield In came the Yale squad panting perspiring expecting to hear some great new play unfolded This is what happened: "Tom looked them all in the eye and with fire in his tones said "'There's man up at Harvard they call PERCY I don't like the name: "And that was all there was It that all he said meant Haughton or both nobody knows ever will "Tom struck his one New Haven when he Give me some fighters and I canmake a football team out of them" This is the second promise ot the Loach And it is the keynote of his plans for 1916 Yost is through with the type ot player who does not possess that all important es erntial of a good football man the gridiron "scrapper" Yost wants men like the players of former Wolverine elevens He uses as

wants and heuses Hie same example that Yostgoes the way he puts it I "It any freshman happened togain some ground against those old'varsity men that freshman mightjust as well start running In the lopposite direction or he was duefor some mlghtv harsh treatment Those old players fought and they fought hard Strenuous opposition 'was food for their scrappiness They couldn't stand being beatenVow it seems to be the iost correct thing tor a freshman to gain all kinds of ground on a team And it doesn't seem to worry the 'varsity players In the least to have the freshmen do it They it in them to Haagy Men Get Call There are Just about five of the Wolverine 'varsity players ot this year whom Yost is counting among his fighters for next year The others have yet to prove themselves And every one of the players whom Yost has picked out Is of the rangy comparatively light type ot athlete The slow beefy man will have a difiicult time making good on a Wolverine 'varsity from now on The presumption is against him When the Cornell Michigan game ot 1916 comes due It will bo two teams ot tall speedy and rangy men that will dash out on the field This fall it was the Big Red team alone

the other day al though it must have been a good dozen years ago that a eturdlly built youngster wandered Into one of the ifth avenue hotels In Man hattan and going Into the dining room started to

fact that he carried a most beautiful on one That eye together with his gen eral build his tlashy clothes and I his loud manner created comment nnd one stylishly dressed woman told the head waiter that she never again would patronise the hotel as it allowed prizefighters to use the dining room The head waiter had to explain that the youngster with tho discolored optic was not a kunckle pusher but a harmless stu dent at Yale Those who are familiar with Tom Shevlin never would call him harm less In his looks and In hla bear ing and in his behavior the former i uie captain iment of all Ell
