Chicago, Nov 14.-The Michigan football team

best wishes of Chicago students for victory over
Pennsylvania which it meets in Philadelphia
Saturday. Last night the editors of the Daily
Maroon the student paper en- the midway, IN
behalf Of the students of the university, sent
letter to Coach Tost, assuring him that the
entire student body at Chicago is with Michigan
in this contest and rendering to him and the
team the sncerests hopes for Michigan victory.

Captain. Curtis received Saturday; which will
prevent his participation in the game.

Week. 5rs
BY O'LouqhIin.

Last nights snow will not hold back foot
ball practice for the Carlisle team the part of
the gophers. The gridiron has been under Il
blanket OF hay for two weeks, and If the rain
keeps off will be in good fast shape for the
contest of Saturday, afternoon. # &. e
Dr. Williams led his warriors, thru good stiff
practice yesterday, putting them thru all of their
PAGES. The were all In, good shape and
considering the vigor OF the play Of Saturday and
the slippery condition Of the field there are few
injuries. Marshall had the closest call Of any.
At time he fell in front of big Ed Parry
and the latter was coming too fast to avoid
him. He stepped squarely in MarshalFs face
with his cleated shoe. Parry realized what he
was doing and made heroic effort to shift
weight to the other foot but not before the
ceat had cut thru Marshall's forehead, max
ing painful altho not serious injury. 1t was
an unavoidable accident, and Parry Is said to
have felt worse over it than the plain worried
Marshall.
The work of the and coaches is
toward pointing up to the highest pitch of the
season for Carlisle. The gopher coach will hard
! ~ spend any more time in deyising new plays,
but will doubtless put in the practice period
in polishing up on the plays used against Chi
cago and the attack which was not uncorked
some of 1t. if not all, will be brought out Sat
