Be Thrown Against Curly
6yrd's Eleven.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, Nov. 10.
With the exception of the
tackles, Yale will use its first var
sity against Maryland in the
Bowl today, but it is expected
that many substitutes viii be sent
IN during the game.
Century Millstead, the big left
tackle, is out of the game be-
cause of an injured toe, and
Batty, the biggest man on the
squad is going to fill in for him.
On the other side of the line,
Blair and Miller are not in the
best of shape and Ben Butter
worth has been chosen to start
the game at tackle.
Milstead is expected to be in
shape for the Princeton game, but
the injury to his toe is painful and
1t will be few days before he is
back to normal. Ed Greene, who
played tackle part of last year, is
recovering after a long layoff, but

ANN ARBoR. Mich, Nov. To-
Today the Quantico Marines, backed
by men from every marine station
on the East coast, win test their
own brand of football against the

conference, the University Of Michi-
gan. The Wolverines have yet to
see their goal line crossed by a rival,
The Marines, not expecting victory.
hope to be that team which first
passes Michigan's last chalk mark
for touchdown.
The present exodus of marines
from the East coast to witness their
team in action, thousand miles
from its home station. marks the
greatest event which has ever occur
red in Marine Corps athletics and
one Of the most sensational and STIR
ring outpourings Of Marine spirit
in the history Of the Marine Corps
From General Lejeune to the
youngest buck private, every ma
rine wearing the uniform of the
corps is filled with a burning desire
to see the game, and when it is con-
sidered that the cost Of the trip in
railroad fare and meals alone amounts
to more than two months pay of
the average enlisted man, the per.
centage Of marines from the East
coast who have found the necessary
expense money for the journey is
q monumental tribute to the strength
Of the spirit within the corps.
Five special trains, loaded to the
guards with marines. rolled into De-
troit this morning. At Harrisburg,
Pa, marines from Philadelphia and
New York joined the big party. At
Buffalo former members of the corps
were on hand at the station to give
the party their best wishes.
An elaborate breakfast in honor
Of Secretary DENLY was rendered
the corps In Detroit this morning,
which was followed by parade and
review and reception by the city
officials. Secretary DENLY is an
slumnus of Michigan and a former
player on the varsity eleven.
In the evening the marines will
return to Detroit, where there will
be an official dinner for the Score
tary of the Navy, q dinner for the
marine officers and enlisted men, a
military ball at the Army and Navy
Club and a huge community dance.
The city of Detroit is sparing no ex.
pense to make the visit of the ma.
rines pleasant one. Theaters and
moving picture houses will admit all
men in marine uniform without
charge and there will be a large
number OF special entertainments.
