Man; we surrender!
Just when we were congratulat-
ing ourselves that our inadvertent
error had been overlooked in the
shuttle, crew Of those former

ed up with a broadside this morn
ing and demanded to know the why
and wherefore of-an arlusion to a
Navy defeat by the Army.
We hoisted the white flag before
they got the range and promised
to make amends. In THURSDAYS
sport columns reference was made
to French of the Rochester team
as being responsible for the de-
feat Of the Navy last fall By the
Army. As a matter Of fact the
Navy trimmed the Army in that
game. z to 0, but 1t was the great
playing Of French in the last few
minutes which threatened to give
the Army a chance to tie the score.

Then again he may not. He has

all things considered, it may prove
absolutely necessary that he con-

Yost came to Michigan in 1901.
He was not 80 gray then as now,

more magnetic than he is today.
