redskins. unless all football signs fall.
will have little trouble in piling up
an overwhelming, score against the
Minnesota Gophers. The Pennsylva-

sons for doubling the supremacy Of
the East over the West. Great prog

This confidence Of the western en-.
thusiasts has taken substantial form
In the last week Of two. and many big
wagers have been reported. One over.
enthusiastic fastener recently offered
to bet $1,000 to $1,000 that Pennsyl.
vania would defeat Michigan, and HIS
offer was snapped up eagerly by De.
troit alumni. Since then the odds
have fallen considerably, and the ad.
mirers OF the Maize and Blue are ap.
parently willing to cover all offers.
Special trains will be run from all
parts Of Michigan and from many
large cities In Ohio, Indiana ard Hi.
nois to Ann Arbor. and the greatest
crowd Of fans eyer seen in the Michl.
gan college town is likely to result.
The Chicago Alumni association will
be represented by over 1000 rooters
from the Windy City, and Michigan
graduates in indianapolis. Cleveland
Detroit and many other cities will at

can win game for Michigan, the
Quakers are headed for defeat.
Other games in the West and South
include Wisconsin VS.. Purdue, Nebrag
