her craftsmanship by refraining from
howling over Michigan,=:in her defeat,
incident Minnesota has suffered much
thru the lack of thought on the part Of
Michigan s mucker element, and this is
the best time to repay it by showing
good craftsmanship and not rubbing salt
into wounds which are hurting.
Only the pinheaded element will do it.
There are a lot of good fellows at Mich
igan and the unfortunate aft ftermath Of
the game Of 1908 has been Of disadvan-
tage to both institutions. Minnesota 8
powers in athletics are s'good fellows"
and Michigan has many men Of the
same stripe. This is an excellent time
to get together and put a muzzle on the
boneheaded element, which follows the
fortunes of both teams. Both schools
have such fellows in their train and
they should be silenced.
This picking Of all-western teams
makes the pickers about as popular as
a judge at baby show.
