YOST TO GIVE REIN
TO EX-WOLVER|NE
Seems Sure to Have Freer
Hand in Coaching Than
Little or Weiman.
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

By LAWhENCE fEhhxs
N VIEW YORK, August 22.-While
N Fielding Yost will always be
VI mixed up in Michigan foot ball,
all the chances seem to be that
Harry Kipke, who has been
called from Michigan State to succeed
Tad Weiman as coach at Ann Aroor,
will have more of swing than either
George Little or Weiman had.
Kipke, an all-American back while AZ
Michigan a few years ago, was one OF
those versatile geniuses who could run
in the open field, hit the lines, pass ano
punt as accurately as Eddie briggs OF
Princeton, the now famous golfer. AND
when you say that man could punt as
well as briggs you are saying all tnat
can be said. For briggs could drop a
50-yard punt on dime.
So gifted was briggs that when Snake
Ames of Chicago was head coacn az
Princeton, trying out his theory that all
a team needed as an onense was q
punter who could outlick the opposing
punter. he put briggs IL yards back
and gave him no protection at all.
There is no record that Eddie ever had
q punt blocked. ,-.
That putting offense was an interest
ing idea which in theory had been dis
cussed a long time. The scheme was
to have every one Scuttle down Ine nelo
on the punt, ready to anchor it where
the opposing safety man caught 1t.
Thus by outlicking the rival punter
yards could be gained steadily. This
worked out as per theory. but the trou-
BILE was that when the time came to
stop punting and strike for touchdown
the Tigers had no attack qualified to
advance the ball.
Well, Kipke was just such punter as
briggs. From Michigan he went to the
University of Missouri as head base
ball coach and assistant in foot ball to
Gwinn Henry. He returned to Ann
Arbor in 1925. where he served as an
athletic handy man. and last year hs
went to Michigan State.
The career of his team at Lansing
was spotty. but that was not his fault
He did very well, indeed, with his ma
terial, holding Michigan to 80 vic
tory, defeating North Carolina State
and tying the Mississippi Aggies.
Detroit crushed the Farmers, but,
then, that Detroit team of 1928 quail
fed to crush lot of teams. A game
also was dropped to Colgate.
All in all, Harry is probably happy to
return to the Wolverine camp, where
the the material this Fall will be all wool
and yard wide.

special testing corps on every city

Statistics compiled by Sherman A.
Hendricks, assistant engineer
showed a total of 35.3 miles of
pavement laid in 1929.
The average cost per mile of a
twenty-four foot roadway with ex-
cavation included was: Asphalt,
S40,500; asphaltic concrete $50, 43S;
concrete $32,380.
The prices are about 30 to 40
per cent less than the costs before
the paving war started in 1925,
Moore said.
The table shows the mileage of
the various types completed in 1929:
Asphalt, AIS miles, total cost $219,-

Results in Better
Paving Jobs.

More intelligent supervision and
inspection of public improvement
jobs in indianapolis has resulted
in better quality of work.
This is the. verdict of City En-
gineer A. H. Moore, who, reviewing
two years as city engineer, today
declared:
I'VE don't take credit for cheaper
prices because the war was on be-
fore we came to city hall. But we
do think better work has been done
by contractors"
From the standpoint of the prop
erty owner it is desirable that the
bitter competition between asphalt
and concrete contractors continue.
A few years ago the city used to
be districted and contractors agreed
among themselves that they would
get all work in certain sections of
the city.

West of an approximately north-south line passing thru the head of Ferguson Glacier, Casey Glacier, and Ibex Gulch the Texas Creek granodiorite plunges beneath a roof of tuff- aceous graywacke and slate and is exposed only on the slopes and in the bottom of the valleys of Ferguson Glacier and the West Fork, which have been eroded below the level of the roof of the batholith, and locally farther west where up- ward bulges or cupolas of the batholith have been partly un- roofed or trenched in the val leys of Texas and Chickamin Glaciers.
 From the west idle of Fer guson Glacier the contact be- tween the Texas Creek grano- diorite and the tuffaceous gray graywacke strikes west and rises to $500 feet on the slope facing the West Fork and to 3,6O0 feet on the east side of the first small glacier west of Ferguson Glacier. It drops to about $500 feet where it crosses very near the foot of this glacier, and then rises to about $500 feet or little more on the spur between the two small glaciers, again drop ping where it crosses the sec ond glacier. On the ridge west of the second glacier the con- 1 tact is at about 3,900 feet. In the second gulch farther west the contact descends abruptly to an altitude of about 3,34O feet and then swings north west around the west spur, de- scending to about 2,60O feet
