 The plan, an innovation in the Rig Ten. was announced by the student senate committee on intercollegiate quet last night It came just as se- cret ballots naming the football cap- tain for 1929 were to be opened and It created a sensation
 In explaining the move the senate committee issued a statement, which read in part:-
 "The selection of captain to lead Minnesota team in intercollegiate gams is so fixed custom and en- braces so much in the way of tra- dition that it is not one to be taken slightly or discontinued without most thoughtful consideration Yet it is the opinion of your senate commit tee intercollegiate athletics that the time has come when the interest Of tn University of Minnesota and Minnesota's intercollegiate competi- ton will he better served by the dis continuation Of the custom
 Accordingly. your committee h.. S ruled. as is it's perogative. that in the future there will be no election Of captains or athletic teams at the University of Minnesota, but that in

 The South Church Juniors showed the way to their elders by spring. ing a tremendous surprise and over coming the heavier Trade School Seconds by 23 to P in game which started slowly and wound up as a speedy and thrilling maelstrom. Not conceded a chance against the school reserves. the junior church- men saw their opponents take & 10 to lead in the first quarter on scores by Zelek and Amenta. Then Joseph, Hattings, Anderson. and Merza started an attack. Hattings taking enc pass for a particularly brilliant score from q pile and mak- ing the count 13 to II at the half. with the Traders still leading. The third ses ssion saw Joseph carry his team into the van with some tricky losses and it was l7 10 when the last period opened.
 The Traders rallied and the teams alternated in the lead during this quarter. With two minutes and a half left Frusceila gave the school the lead. only to have Merza put the church in the van again. Retano was rushed back into the gx1le and sank the basket that set the school | in front, but Captain Roy Havlick with minute of play remaining fired from the middle of the floor and made good his shot. He alst added q point on a free try, as dio | Retano, and the game ended witt the ball in possession of the church | The summary:

lieu thereof the head coach in each sport will name captain for each game as the selson progresses. It is thought that this appointment may be rotated from game to game in accordance with the best Judgment Of the coach-possibly this rotation may he among seniors who are on the team.
 There has come to your commit tee within the past few weeks unim- peachable evidence that politics has entered into the election which was to have been announced here to- night. Outside influences of a very dangerous character. especially the influence of fraternities and other organizations have been brought to bear in a manner inimical to the best interest of an athletic team representing this institution
 Tt is submitted. that if the pres ent situation were continued 10 a loglcal conclusion We might we'll expect in some future year to have Minnesota players feel as they 20 into game that they are represent ing a certain fraternity on the field Of athletic sport rather than the University of Minnesota in intercol legiate games

With the famed Bell Mercy forward combination once more working 10 perfection and accounting for s2 Of the winners points. the church team took the lead late in the first quar- ter and was never in the remotest danger after that
 Anderson scored first for the Traders on free toss but then Mercy danced through for a field goal. For few minutes things were close and the score was 10-S at the end of the first period. but then the South church began to find itself. Mercy was coming in from all angles to take passes and sink shots, while Bell was dropping the ball through on spectacular losses and the rest of the church team was coming up to find the basket. Anderson and Prszbryz made all the losers points in this half, but they could not keep up with the slashing church attack and the score was 27-15 at the half In the third quarter the game be- came a rout. With Bell sinking all manner of impossible shots from over his head and while on hls knees and with Mercy dropping 1T free tries with perfect accuracy, the church ran it's score up to 3S points while holding the Traders scoreless from the floor to one point from tho | foul-linc.
