There Is a training school for auto

the factory OF the Packard Motor Car

running about a month. The interest
shown by many owners OF Packard
cars in their construction and method

lessons in automobile construction

men prominent in Detrolts business
and social circles, II has become quite

state with a ghost of a show beside
them.
This will be the third clash OF the
series between the rivals in football,
though relations have been OF long
standing in other sports, particularly
basketball NJ. A. c. has generally
won its college championship, while
ID. A. c. has been as usually supreme
in the field of athletic club sports, so
the clash is natural and the rivalry
keen. Last year Britt Patterson's won

victory by a score OF 10 0, The
year before that neither team was able
TO score.
This year ID. A. c. looks TO be the
logical favorite. though by a small
margin. The Saginaw Naval Reserves
that scored on NJ. A. c. were unable
TO cross the ID. A. c. goal line and the
games were probably a correct index
on the strength OF the winning elev-

tello's Maxwell No. IL and Munwei-

and ninth positions, respectively, when
the race was called of.
The only other car running at this
time was the French s. p. o.. which
had been practically rebuilt for the
race. but which was continuously In
trouble, succeeding finally in making
only FIVE circuits of the 9.8-mile course.
The race was run under sapphire
skies and In the warmth OF a sum-
mer sun, which made overcoats un-
comfortable. The day grew brilliant
and clear after a morning OF one of
the heaviest, wettest fogs that ever
held the city in its embrace. A crowd
of many thousands filed the two big
grandstands at the finish line and
other thousands lined the rectangulaI
course on all four Of its regular
sides. -

STATE TITLE is REALLY
PENDING ON THIS GAME

The game is annually the best at
tended contest in the city and has
been generally a $1,000 proposition in
which both teams share alike.
The NJ. A. c. rooters will be on hand
in numbers sufficient TO give the crowd
more than touch OF real college root
ing and their band will be an added
attraction
Summarized. ID. A. C.'s strength lies
in the following departments:
Lawton's defensive center play and
punting.
Forward passes from Finlayson TO
Moebs.
.Rushes OF tackle by Vaughn and
Mouat.
Line-plunging by Smith.
Place kicking by Finlayson.
The lineup, as the teams will start
the play will be as follows:
