Chicago. Nov. 26.-Coach A. A.
stagg is planning shake-up I'm his
traditional football schedule, and the
maroon adherents are promised some
thrillers in the way of new games
next season. Two big eastern teams
are expected to appear against the
Midway warriors, while Michigan is
also "A possibility, It was learned yes

Cornell and Chicago after tying
this year and last at to 6, will meet
again unless unforeseen entanglements
occur. and the other eastern dark
horse" is likely to be chosen from
among West Point the Navy Pennsyl-
yana and Brown. The next month

ranged
Michigan's relation to the Chicago
schedule win not be determined at

Of the two schools that there is an
unusually good chance for a renewal
Of the Chicago Wolverine contest.
Graduates of both schools have come
out strong for the game.
Refuses to Talk of Game.
Coach Stagg declined to discuss the
prospects of Michigan game, though
admitting that there would be no
trouble If the maize and blue institu-
ton should come into the conference
once more. Whether the two schools
can agree on n battle as conditions
are now and whether Michigan will
seek readmission to the conference
next June are the two main ques-
tons now. according to the alumni
and athletic officials.
Many of the followers of the two
schools are inclined To think the Chi
cago- Michigan game will be sched-
uled. Michigan's success i'm getting g
game with Minnesota this year was
regarded as an opening wedge to
renewal of relations with the confer
once, and as the game is sure TO b'
the great event of the season, 1t Is
thought the officials may come round
and agree to terms.
Chance for Many Games.
Coach Stage has invitations from
Pennsylvania. Brown and the Navy
remaining over from this year. Cor
nell has not been officially scheduled
but Coach Stage admitted that a thirC
contest was likely. The Chicago-Cor'
nell relations have been pleasant al
around, and the maroons would dis
like to lose another chance at tho
Ithacans.
Minnesota and Chicago have nC
written contract for "a game mex
year. according to Coach Stage. This
is always the case between the tive
schools, however, and the game i
considered sure. Illinois, Wisconsin
and Northwestern are fixtures OF
Chicago's schedule, but there is
chance that either Purdue or indiana
or both may be dropped.
If Jimmy" Sheldon leaves Indiana
a game with the Hoosiers will be un
likely. it is believed ut the Midway
Purdue has been uncertain for tn
last three years, and the rooters be
lieve the school will be passed up thu
time. leaving room for the new east
ern contest or the possible Michigan
battle.
Not Sure Of Schedule.
81 cannot say definitely what mex
years schedule will be- said Coac
Stage. ut is entirely probable tina
considerable shift will be made Il
the teams played, though no actio
of this sort has been taken as YET
The Cornell authorities have not ask
ed for another game so far, but thin
game probable"
The maroons are undecided abou
their chances for next year. tn
freshman team failed to show any hi
stars, and the fact that Minnesota
known to have the rosiest kind @
prospects looks bad to the Midwa
eye Chicago lost heavily. and Stag
will have to build practically an en-
tirely new team.
