PROSPECTS ARE BRIGHT
FOR MICHIGAN'S eleven

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Sept. A.
This, F. H. Yosts last year with the
University of Michigan, will be one
of hard work for the "Hurry-up''
coach. The man who developed for
the yellow and blue three successive
unbeaten teams will not have the vet
Grams of old to depend upon, but
must break in a lot of new mater
ial.
But two veterans are with the
team-Captain willie" Heston, the
greatest of halfbacks. and Gregory
the curly haired giant who plays CEN
ter. Around this pair Yost must
build his eleven. True, he has stacks
OF good material, much of which was
tried out last season on the varsity
For three years Michigan has not
tasted defeat, although last season
she came within an ace of bowling to
Minnesota. From the material Yost
has to work on it is not hard for the
undergraduates to build up hopes
that the 1904 team will keep up its
predecessors great reputation.
In addition to Gregory and Heston
1ost will have Schultz, the fresh

was Of high standard and who
should be better than ever. The
death of Gooding is loss that cannot
be overestimated Candidates for
his position on the other side of
Gregory are Ted" Hammond and
Barnett, both freshmen scrubs of
last year.
Joe Maddox, the invincible tackle,
will be missed. He is to coach the
University of Washington team and
his place will be hard to fill. Who
ever takes his place will be criticized
for Maddox was an idol not to be
displaced in the hearts of the stu
dents.
Bigelow is the most prominent
candidate for the position just now
He has played on the scrubs for the
past three years, but has never been
able to show what Yost calls foot
ball instinct" and this has kept him
off the varsity.
Although a freshman last year,

yield for 1904 is now placed at 3d.
600 bales. Earlier in the season
this estimate ran between $4,000 and
1000 bales. 4a
To Offset the short crop, the grow
ers expect to receive the highest
prices in years, and the majority
are now said to be holding for 80
cents a pound. So far, the highest
contracts have been recorded at 81
cents, and quite a number of sales
have been effected at 2612~ cents.
With a known shortage abroad and
a decrease in New York, California,
Oregon and Washington, the con-
sentative element among the growers
express every belief that they will
obtain this figure.

things, the speaker said that he con-
sidered the college a stepping stone
to the school OF life. THE college, -
he said, Stands not only for the
formation of correct ideals, but also
for the increase of real ability to &C
complish things, to give that
strength and confidence to character
that prevents failure" In conclusion
he said that the school must be meas
ured by it's results. ut is a good

HOPS WILL
BE SCARCE

In spite of earlier promises of an
increased yield of hops for this state,
the 1904 season will. it is declared,
show a shortage of at least 5000
bales compared with last year, and
decrease from earlier estimates
of as high as 10, 900 bales. This in
formation is based upon reports
reaching the city from the principal
hop distributing centers. Up until
the latter part of August the gem
orally accepted belief was that the
1904 crop would so as high as 3d.
600 bales, but now that the actual
results of the first kiln dry tests are
known, growers declare positively
that the total crop will not exceed
10000 bales.
The principal shortage is found in
the Western Washington valley sec
tons, according to statements from
the growers, and largely at Kent,
Puyallup and Sumner. In the North
Yakima district there appears to be
as large crop as last year, and the
yield may even show a slight in
crease. But the shortage south of
this city appears to be fully verified
by the first runs of the kilns Pick
ing commenced early last week, as
announced at the time, and since
then several of the growers have
been operating their kilns for several
days and nights. The pessimistic
statements are therefore said to be
based upon a better general knowl-
edge of the drying qualities of the
hops, and are considered as abso-
lutely authentic.
Taking into consideration the
complete summary of hop conditions
at the principal producing points.
