ANN ARBOR, Oct 10.-Poor gen.
sralship-that II the verdict Of all
those who saw the Michigan team
tied by the little Case school Of Cleve-
land last Saturday. Lack of head
work was no doubt responsible for
the apparent strength Of the Cleve-
landers and the surprising weakness
OF the Wolverines. Undoubtedly the
Michigan team had the better men
when taken individually, but the Ohio
ans were possessed Of Q q eat leader
In Goss. who played quarter, and his
head aided by lack Of II on the part
OF the supporters OF the Maine and
Blue, enabled them to tie the score
for the nrst time In 13 years.
Michigan seemed struck with stage
fright or q lack of ambition. The line
was weak In one or two spots, and
the Case team found these nice open
ings for bucks of ave and ten yards.
Did the Wolverines try to close up
the holesf No. They left them open.
Again Case used the old style of de-
Tense; that Is. her backs played on
the line Of scrimmage, leaving all Of
the territory used In making forward
passes absolutely uncovered. But
Michigan didn't take advantage Of
this fact until the third period and
then the Case coach had changed his
defense to q little better position for
preventing the passing game. Even
then the Wolverines could have made
Q couple Of touchdowns II they hadn't
handled the ball a. II II was CREASED
and allowed II to get away from them.
In kicking, the team was weak.
Lawton did not get his punts away
for any great distance. In practice
he can boot the ball for 20 yards with
out any difnculty. Nervousness also
Affected his playing In the line. and
Il vas through his side that Case made
some Of their longest gains. Ben
brook was easily the star of the de-
Tense. He was In every play and
could b relied on to stop anything In
his territory. The ends played . very
consistent game and Daniels starred
IN breaking up plays and receiving
forward passes. Their fault was In

DID NOT USE HEADS.
SAYS COACH YOST

the fact that In their endeavors TO
avoid q penalty for interfering with

they failed to get down under the

Mcmillan who played his first game
on the varsity. handled himself az we'll
as he did the team In the opposite

punts was ane. but IN running the
team. he did not regard the instruc-
lions Of the coach until too late. Yost
appears neither discouraged or de-
lighted.
The boys didn't use their brains"
he said. and then, too. you can't play
good football II two or three try to
run the team. We should have won
by q score Of 80 to O, II the men had
boys when you 60 on the field do as
Moses did. Go out and look over the
landscape. II the other side plays
their backs up. you use the forward

Site" he added.
Practice will start this afternoon
with renewed vigor In preparation for
the game with M. A. C. next Saturday.
This contest will not be easy II the
reports from the "Aggie's" camp are
true. Coach Brewer has q good team
and should give Michigan q tough
battle. A week will, however, do much
to take the rough spots on the squad
and now that Yost knows the weak
points In the team. he can rectify them
more rapidly. Thompson and Conklin
will both be In the game by then. and
their addition will help to strengthen
the offense and defense greatly. As
II IL, the students are still Of the opin-
ION that there hasn't been q better
team I'm Ave years.
