GOPHERS Do
NOT SUBMIT

CHICAGO Nov 2S.-Michlgan will
make no attempt To re-enter the west
ern conference. That this decision
has been reached by the Wolverine
authorities is considered certain to-
day. following the announcement that
Michigan would not be represented at
the meeting of the conference schools
in Chicago this week.
Although pro-conference sentiment
has been growing among the Michi-
can undergraduates and faculty OF
late the attempts OF Coach Stagg and
the Chicago authorities to dictate 10
Minnesota as TO her relations with
Michigan. are believed TO De respons-
ible for the change of feeling. The
Michigan authorities allege that Stage
has endeavored 10 dictate completely
TO Minnesota besides reprimanding
the Gopher school for past connec-
lions with the Wolverines.
b That Minnesota will not submit TO
Chicagos methods is believed certain
here and Il is believed that the Goph-
ers will include Michigan in their
schedule next year. despite the fact
that Michigan will not return to the

fakes and hippodrome, the new club
Will put on an entertainment about

III there Is sufficient encouragement
from the public IL is that Hacken-

foreigners touring the country can be
secured
There Is lot Of merit to decent
wrestling and the game would be in
better repute In Detroit were it not

The standing of the men forming the
Wolverine club is such that the I'M

the season. On June Is. 1863
