WANT GAME

ANN ARBOR. Nov 7.-Disappointed
at not being able to see the Michigan
team in action but three times this
season on the home field, the students
OF the university are clamoring for
fourth game 10 be played the next
week after the contest with Mime
sofa. The failure OF the Notfe Dame
game prevented them from witnessing
more than one game with big col
lege team. and they are anxious for
an extra game at-the end of the regH-
lar season.
The authorities are inclined TO look
upon the idea with favor, but do not
know OF any school that could be
scheduled at this late date. Most col
leCes outside OF the conference con-
tinue their seasons until after Thanks
giving, and as they play a large num-
Der Of games, are nearly worn out.
There Is no possible chance OF the
Wolverines securing a game with any
of the conference nine" as the rela-
lions between Michigan and that body
have been strained since Michigan de-
serted. A contest with some eastern
school would be the ideal way OF
handling the scheme but there would
be several difficulties in that PROPOSE
ton. Besides the fact that the east
ern schools have long seasons, they
have never been anxious TO play Mich
igan. and II IS unlikely that they would

the close Of the season.

GOPHERS ARE
REAL CHAMPS

CHICAGO. Nov. THE western
Conference football championship Ia
now virtually settled insofar as actual
nlaving is concerned and from now
on dopesters and followers OF Illinois
and Minnesota may advance argu,
ments az TO why their teams should
be considered the best in the west.
As a result OF the defeat handed In
diana. Saturday. Illinois has an equal
claim TO the championship with Min
nesota. but no game Is scheduled be-
tween the latter two schools and the
real championship will be decidedly
only in the minds OF the experts. on
paper Minnesota might seem to have
the call. having beaten Chicago by a
score of p to 0, while the best Ilh-
nois could do was 3 TO 0. Minnesota
has also shown strong in her other
games.
The Gophers are heavier and have
more veterans in the lineup than Hi
nois and although a game between
them is out OF the question. despite
some talk OF a pcst-season contest
that was started Minnesota would
probably be the favoTite.
Next Saturday, Illinois Will meet
Northwestern and Is reasonably sure
OF victory, so that her claims Will not
be weakened Purdue, Chicago, Wis
consln and other conference schools
were put cut OF the running early in
the season by defeats.

Princeton is the only big eastern

critics are inclined 10 give her place

fact that Harvard has already de-
cisively defeated two teams that have
beaten Yale, and Pennsylvania has
made comparatively better scores
against Carlisle and Lafayette than
has Princeton.
The records of the teams to date
