Squad to Have Hardest Practice of
Week Today at Marshall Field.

Coach A. A. Stage has made his fare
well 1908 appearance in his famous
gloom representation. The Maroon foot
ball leader lost his few remaining
chances to appear in his well known
role last night when ne announced that
the Midway team would spring an alb
solutely new line. of plays against Wis
consin Saturday in the wetsern cham
pionship gridiron game.
With the coach's confession of his
reserve artillery for the Badgers fresh
in their minds the Maroon rooters will
not listen to any gloom this week
should Stage attempt to become lu-
gubrious. According to the Midway
players the tricks as yet unused are the
best Maroon team ever had and sure
to bewilder Wisconsin
Coach Stage took his last stand on
the verge of bearishness by refusing
to predict a victory over the Badgers
after he had run the Maroons under
their first session of the final weeks

pounds, the most coveted center rush
from the standpoint of avoirdupois in

Alderman Kruger, who says it hurts
to fall down with the weight of BAT
pounds on his bones, was a spectator
at the Cornell Chicago football game
on Marshall field last Saturday, and
the brutality of it, he AYERS. almost
made him weep.
So affected was he at the carnage he
witnessed between the athletes of the
east and west in football scramble as
sembled, that he poured forth his grief
last night at the meeting of the city
council and demanded the passage OF
an ordinance prohibiting the playing
of the game within the confines of the
city.
