tend to greatly weaken the Wisconsin
team.
In the practice last night Vanderboon
was shifted from half to full back and
Moffat and Liljequist played the half
back positions. The practice was light,
consisting principally of signal and for
nation work. Some practice was also had
in running down punts. Haumerson Is
doing most Of the punting for the team
and, while it is not as good as Driver or
Sweeley. he does we'll.
, The practice was secret. The coaches
express themselves as satisfied with the
condition of the men. with the exception
Of Juneau and Driver, and say the chances
Of Wisconsin's winning are good.
In accordance with the time-honored
custom before a big, hard game, the play
ers after the practice last night returned
from Camp Randall to the gym in a single
file, led by big Emil Show and chanting
peans Of victory. Camp Randall is half
a mile from the gym and the spectacle
of the Wisconsin braves filing through the
streets, singing songs Of football glory,
was highly impressive.
The second eleven accompanied the
team to Chicago. The Wisconsin head
quarters will be at the Victoria hotel.
Coach King may take the men out to
Marshall field this afternoon. He last
night announced that the lineup would
be as follows:
Left end, Abbott; left tackle, Long;
left guard, Bertke; center, Show; right
guard, Lerum; right tackle, Haumerson
right end, Bush; quarter back, Fogg; left
half back, Juneau; right half back. Lille
quist; full back. Vanderboon.
Special trains bearing 1000 students and
townspeople will cave early Saturday
morning, arriving at Chicago between II
and IL o'clock. The excursionists will be
accompanied by the university band and
they have secured permission from the
chief Of police of Chicago to march from
the station to the Victoria hotel In a
body.
Yost Talks In DoIeful Veln.
Ann Arbor, Mich, Oct, 21.-Contrary to
all expectations Jack Mclean has arrived
here to assist in adding the final touches
to the Michigan team. So Yost announced
last night after everybody had fully ceased
to expect him, Yost having advised him
not to come.
He played half back for Michigan in
81 and 'sS and was considered one of
the best men in that position that ever
donned uniform In the west. He has
coached Knox college for two years, and
1t will be remembered that Knox Is the
only team that succeeded in crossing Wis
consins goal
PA" Henniger who played guard in
'93 and "a and tackle in '95 and '96, came
up from Detroit and was out at Ferry
field helping Yost with the men.
When asked in regard to the practice
Yost, after moments pause, said
well. it wasn't quite so good as last
| weeks" and that was all the opinion
he would express.

scrimmage, but most of the time it was

end Of the first half. The guards anC
tackles have not been selected and prob

Palmer, who made good against thu
Ohio team, will probably be one Of the
tackles, with Cole. who played guard

All of these four will be tried on enc

feature is number of substitutes nearly

1t Is hoped that the fumbling and hest
tation with the signals will be eliminated
this week and that 'Yost's previous gooG
luck will stay with him. -
