At this stage the mob scene was put
on. No one seemed 10 know what had

They kicked long and loud. and the
bleacherites, believing the umpire had
made a terrible decision, rushed on the
field. So did few policemen. The
umpire stood his ground and finally
forfeited the game TO us.

BILL SMITH FOR SCRUBS

ANN ARBOR. Mich. Sept. IT,
With but comparatively few men oil
hand to take part, the initial practice
of the Wolverine football squad was
held this morning under the super
vision OF Coaches Fielding H. Yost
and Henry Schultz and Trainer Steve
Farrell.
Although the athletic authorities IL
vited the largest number of can6i-
dates To report for early practice tina;
has been asked in years. the first
days total was discouraging 10 say
the least. However, the coach be-
lieves that within day or two all o:
the veterans will be back together
with enough of the youngsters to
make a respectable looking squad.
From now until school opens there
will be two practice periods each day.
and anyone who knows anything
about the methods OF the wizard
coach can safely predict that they
will be strenuos ones.

NEW RULE RELIEVES JAIL
District Supreme Court Pro-
vides for Trials Dur
ing Recess.

In order to relieve in some measure the
Jail congestion incident to the summer
recess of the Supreme Court Of the Dis
trict Of Columbia, the justices yesterday
afternoon In, general term assembled,
promulgated an amendment to the rules
Of court. The amendment provides an
opportunity for trial to any prisoner not
held on a capital charge during the re
cess when a jury is available under the
law. 1t provides:
cat any time when juries are. provided
by law between the last day of June and
the first Tuesday of October following.
any person indicted for an offense not
capital and committed thereon to jail,
may apply to the justice presiding for an
immediate trial before him. and such ap-
plication shall be determined as the
speedy administration of justice may re-
quire."
The court also considered the new rules
Of practice recently issued by the Supreme
Court of the United States. AS some OF
the rules are inapplicable to the District
Supreme Court, Justices Wright and Stat
ford We're named as committee Of the
bench to Gull such rules as would be ad-
vantageous to local practice and to re-
port later to the general term. A COM
mittee has been appointed by the Bar
Association to confer with the two jus.
tices and to make suggestions as to the
desired changes in the rules. -
