BADGERS HOPE REvIvEs
Wisconsin Cheerfully Talks About
Beating Michigan.

New York Sun Special Service.
Madison, Wis, Nov. 11.-Realizing
that the really crucial test for Wiscon-
sin will be the Michigan game next
Saturday, the badger coaches have
been exerting every effort to get the
men into shape and the remarkable
Improvement shown since last Satur-
day has wonderfully revived the hopes
of the cardinals. The slogan Is We've
got to win from Michigan" and the
spirit of it was reflected In excellent
work during the practice yesterday.
For three hours yesterday afternoon
the men were on the field and for two
hours yesterday evening they prac-
ticed new plays in the gymnasium
Wisconsin had a number Of new plays
to spring on Chicago last Saturday,
but Fogg, who ran the team, did not
use them. It's a cinch that something
new will be sprung on Michigan.
The varsity showed up strong in the
practice. Captain Abbott, Findlay and
Wrabetz went thru the stiff signal
practice, but owing to slight injury
took no part in the fierce scrimmage.
Scof1eld and Harvey alternated at full
! back, Burkhardt and Vanderboom at
left tackle. The second team was
given the ball for six downs, but failed
in one case to make it's gains The
varsity backs showed up strongly and
hit the line for big gains. Bertke, the
big left guard, carried the ball several
times. Bush was given considerable
practice in punting and booted the ball
in a way that made the coaches smile
with satisfaction. He will do the
punting In the Michigan game.
The badgers leave here at 500
o'clock Thursday morning and reach
Battle Creek in the afternoon. They
will remain at Battle Creek until Sat
urday morning when they will proceed
to Ann Arbor. Two hundred badger
rooters will go to see the game.
