WOLVERINES MAY

Dame may be one of the big home
games on the Michigan football sched-
ule next fall. while Cornell and SYRIA
cuse are the other probable major at
fractions IN Ferry field. The only
trips which the Wolverines will take
next fall are to Philadelphia and
probably to Cambridge.
The possibility of game with Notre
Dame was brought about by the at
titude shown by the Michigan Aggies.
The Lancing men want a later date on
Michigan's schedule or none at all.
AS Michigan has no later date she
would surrender to the Farmers, Notre
Dame may replace the East Lansing
team. AS for the minor games. Michi-
gan will no doubt meet Case and Mt.

bilt will be seen on Ferry field is un-

fighting gamely outplayed the home
eleven decisively in the last quarter.
On a straight football. they twice
marched nearly the length Of the
field for touchdowns. Calac, in adj

goals.
Calac was the Indians only consis-

Brown outclassed Carlisle in the
first half of the game. Brown used
the forward pass repeatedly for large
gains, the ball being thrown from a
