WANTS TO TAKE
PLACE
IN The DRAFT

Claus ]. Murie. Moorhead young
man who has won fame as a natural
list, and who has just returned from
six months expedition to Lab
radOr. writes Andrewe O. HOuglum,
secretary of the Clay county local
board, asking that nc he permitted
draft order providing the latter has
been drawn for military service.
The brother, Martin Murie. is No.
POTS, in the order of the draft for
Clay county. and his serial number,
1880, has not been drawn yet.
Claus ]. Murie, in his interesting
letter, declares his willingness to
take the place of his brother in the
nations army, that the latter mGl'
support their mother, younger broth
er and sister.
The naturalist has been identified
for some time with the Carnegie
museum of Pittsburgh. His letter
follows:
Carnegie Museum, Pittsburgh. Pa,
Nov. 6, 1917.
Andrew O. Houglum,
80 Fourth street south.
Moorhead, Mimi.
Dear Sir
have recently returned from an
expedition through Labrador, for
Carnegie Museum. Having been
away from civilization over six
months, / was not in the United
States when the select draft went in
to effect and have not been register
ed. Will you kindly let me know
what is the proper thing for me to
do. that l may be registered the same
as all other men OF the proper age?
| am % years of age.
There is another matter I would
like to ask you about. My brother,
Martin Murie is registered at Moor
head. AS l am just at present pro-
viding for the family. he did not
make any exemption claim. One of
us ought 20 be permitted to provide
for the family. and l would want my
brother to remain for that purpose,
while go into the army. We do not
wish to shirk. but someone has to
look after our mother and younger
brother and sister. Being the oldest,
ought to be the one selected for
training first. Can this be
done? Kindly instruct me as TO the
necessary steps to take.
Very truly yours,
CLAUS ]. MuTie.

/ sin when he arrived at Illinois to
coach the football team and Stays
while at Yale had been better knows
as baseball star than as football
hero.
The popularity of the one-man sys-
tenn of coaching in the middle west
may be seen in the fact that both
Stagg and Yost have been with the
same schools for the past fifteen
years. Zuppke came into prominence
more recently and at about the time
that the open game came into favor.
There can be no doubt that the one
man idea has been successful where
1T has been practiced, but there has
never been the opportunity to COM
pare justly the play of the eastern
schools with the western.
Michigan is the only middle west
ern eleven that has had many battles
on eastern fields and Michigan in re-
cent years has not had the teams it
has in the old days of blood-and-iron
as the teams of 1901-02-03-'0A
1t cannot be said. however, that
there have been no individual COACH
ing stars in the east and men like
Sharpe of Cornell Warner of Pitts
burgh and Sanford of Rutgers come
to mind. Warner has record of
long service at Carlisle and Pitts
burgh that is as consistent as any
and Sanford has never failed to turn
out a well organized team at Rut-
gers whatever the material on haHo.

Norris at Stockholm summarizing
dispatches printed in the Swedish
newspapers similar to those publish
ed here. showed that even the
Scandinavian countries are getting
no news of what is. transpiring in
Russia except through the controlled
agencies at Petrograd.
Until the situation clears, the state
department and war department will
make no announcement as to the
probable effect of the change at
Petrograd upon the relations of the
United States with Russia and the
conduct of the war against Ger
many. 1t is apparent, however. that
there is still lingering hope that
the revolution may be localized in
Petrograd, and that Kerensky may
escape to rally around him the ele-
ments necessary to re- establish his
government at Moscow or some 9TH
er point.

Michigan Meets Cornell.

Ann Arbor, Mich, Nov. 10.-The
University of Michigan winds up its
home football schedule this afternoon
with Cornell as it's opponent. Michi-
gan expects a hard fight, but Coach
Yost and members of the team are
confident of victory. DR.. Sharp, Cor
nell Coach, was not optimistic con-
corning the outcome.
Sharp probably will not play Left
halfback Van Horn, but expects to
start Pendleton at fullhack. These
two men have been suffering from in
juries.
Yost will use Sparks and Weston,
Weston taking Sparks place at quar-
terback when the latter was injured
recently and has developed into the
sensation of the local season. Sparks
will play left halfback.
