Wilde has already announced he will train In private instead of lending himself to the American method of advertising a bout by working In public.

Unless Michigan men who can play and who are eligible to play will report to Coach Mather, Michigan's 1919 football record will be repeated in her basketball schedule.

While Yale once supreme in the east now occupying a position there similar to Michigan in the west, is demanding radical changes in her system of sports and a revision of the system of coaching. Michigan is sending a cry to the high heavens for a revision of spirit. The Michigan Daily, the student publication says, in this connection: "Spirit when voiced by 5,000 students in a series of yells, in an effort to encourage their representatives on the field is a mighty fine thing. Michigan has it. and lots of it.

But that kind of spirit that it takes to go out for football, basketball, or any other sport and fight in the ranks is lacking here." The Michigan Daily has sized up the situation in a nutshell. There were eligible men sitting on the bleachers all this fall, who could play a better brand of football than become really proficient In this art requires years and years.
