SUBMARINE DIV-
 ING RECORD

At two a. m. Monday, a lady resident of south Snow flake heard a loud and sus- tained noise near her we'll. Investigation showed that there was a horse in the we'll, and as the lady had no near neighbours, she decided to leave the animal where it was until daylight. About ten o'clock the same morn- ing, she saw the owner of the horse, and thought to tell him where the animal was. Assistance was procur- ed, the horse was withdrawn from the well, given a slap on the back, and he trotted off happy as a horse ever is. It was found that when he broke through the well boarding, some of the boards went with him and damned in the stone work, holding the horse about two inches from the water. Any how, what's a little thing like a horse or two in your well?

CENTRAL TAKES

BY BRYAN MORSE.

Central High School Is 1922 foot.
ball champion today. In defeating
Eastern II to the Mt. Pleasant
boys clinched their honors in the
stadium yesterday. -
Eastern has reason to bemoan
the loss of yesterdays contest on
two counts. In the first place the
Capitol Hill lads were guilty of
loose handling of the ball.
The second reason is not the fault
Of the Fasteners for even the un.
preJudiced onlooker will emphati.

Central scored largely because it's
idea Of following the ball. When
Eastern fumbled Central players
were on the job. When Eastern
blocked Central punts Central play
ers were still on the job. When
Central players blocked Eastern
punts, Central players were there
and on the ball. That's all there is,
there isn't any more.
Childress tailed first for Central
when Birthright's punt doomed from
Centrals 20.yard line over Meyers
head to the Eastern 17-yard line.
Sixty-two yards the ball travelled
and Childress fell on 1t and took a
nap. He lay prone for several sec.
onds until Ed Day rushed up and
told him to beat II. Meyers lay
tangled with Childress and Day but
Childress struggled to his feet and
galloped across for a touchdown 1s
Eastern's players figured the ball
was dead at rest on the ground and
that eventually some official would
decide who had possession Of 1t.
In the second half Day broke
through the Central line some time
before O'Dea passed the ball. Side
line spectators were treated with
the rare sight Of watching a player
stand in the opponents backfie.d
and walt for the opposing center to
pass the ball.
Finally Ady received the pass. In
the meantime Hall had sneaked
quite a ways off-side and when
Day easily blocked Ady's attempted
punt Hall dashed a matter Of
twenty-five yards for another touch.
down. Both touchdowns were made
on very lucky breaks.
Central got inside Eastern's 20.
yard line but once. A forward pass
was grounded over the goal line at
this time. Otherwise the competi.
tion rested chiefly in punting, Ady
and Birthright performing consist

SAYS YOST
WILL CD
George Little May Coach Foot
ball, With Fielding Only
Advising.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. Nov. 1S-
Is Fielding Yost TO retire as head
football coach at the close OF the
presenj season? Gossip around the
campus is in the affirmative.
/ Yost. who is now director of all
athletics at. Michigan, has been in
charge of football activities as head
coach for twenty-five years.
II is hinted that if all goes well
at Michigan this year. and at the
~, sent time things are flourishing,
Yost will! turn the football worries
over to his assistant. George Little.
OF course, Yost will continue to
act in an advisory capacity as
director Of athletics.
Yost has an enviable record as
football coach at Michigan, He
certainly put the Maize and Blue
on the map from a sporting stand
point. rG
Yost came to Michigan in 1901.
He probably won his greatest fame
in his first four years at Michigan.
His teams from 1901 to 1906 were
practically invincible. Those were
the days of the "point-a minute"
elevens.
Michigan in the first four years
OF fost regime won 55 out OF 81
games, tying one and losing the
other. Minnesota in 1903 played
the Wolverines to a 6-to-6 tie,
while Chicago in 1905 beat Michi.

which permitted Chicago to score a
safety.
During his first five years at
Michigan Yost's teams scored 2,790
points to the oppositions AZ, a
most remarkable record. that prob
ably will never be equaled in collie.
giate circles. .....
Thus It Is easy to see that Yost
has had more than his share Of
glory. and is Willingness anxious
to step down when he finds some.
one he believes will fill the bill.
Looks very much as II he had that
man in George Little. his present
